"Military morale cannot be bought with just two thousand stones of food and grass. I think you, Wuhui, should know this better than I do."

The general chuckled suddenly, remembering some interesting past events, "Wuhui, I trust your vision, but I can't trust the person you like because of it. Don't you sometimes make mistakes? You trust your lord, and I trust you. You, but it does not mean that I will trust the lord you trust. This is like, although Sheriff Shen is the governor of Longwu County, he cannot control Yonggu Pass."

As the county governor, Shen Tang was indeed in charge of both sides of the political power.

But it does not include Yonggu Pass. The soldiers and horses in Yonggu Pass have little to do with Longwu County. It is okay to ask for military power, but there are no soldiers. Even if the envoy is Chu Yao, the one he owes the most in his life will be the same. Public and private How can it be confused?

Even if the military power is given up, Shen Tang cannot mobilize it.

There are only more than 20,000 troops stationed in Yonggu Pass, 70% of which are his personal troops, and the remaining 30% belong to Longwu County. Even if Shen Tang gets military power, in theory, only these 30% can be commanded. And there is a high probability that they will not be able to command them. Because these 30% of the troops were left by the former county guard, and currently they only recognize the general who led them to repel Shiwu's invasion countless times.

The general didn't make it too clear.

But this is no different from spreading it out.

For Chu Yao's sake, he can ignore Mr. Shen's troubles. As long as he doesn't stab Yonggu Guan in the back, he can guard the gate safely, and the other party can be his county guard, and the two sides can avoid infringement. But If you overstep...

At worst, the general will lead his troops to fight at another home ground.

For example, they plundered Shiwu and used war to support war.

For him, as long as he can do Shiwu.

As for where the war is fought, it doesn't matter.

The reason for sticking to Yonggu Pass is only because I owe the kindness of the previous governor, and I have been stationed here for more than ten years.

Chu Yao's voice was indifferent, but with unquestionable determination: "My Lord, of course he has this ability."

The general was slightly startled and asked, "Why?"

Then he asked: "Does it mean he may have the national seal in his hand?"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Quan's pupils trembled.

Master Yu was startled for a moment, but then he understood something.

Chu Yao's expression was calm.

General: "I was careless. I shouldn't have misunderstood that you followed Zheng Qiao before you recovered. Your temperament has not changed since then, but this is also your biggest flaw. In fact, even if you verbally admit that it is Zheng Qiao, I will believe it. "

At first, he was misled by Chief Yu and subconsciously misunderstood that it was Zheng Qiao. But when he calmed down, he felt that something was wrong. He had seen Chu Yao's bad temper in young people since he was a child.

This man has become stubborn, and outsiders have nothing to do with him.

For example, except for a few people who witnessed such a big thing as Wen Xin being replaced, no one knew about it at all.

Including the general.

He didn't know that such an incident had happened until his father gave his last words before his death. Of course, Chu Yao's ability to hide it so well was also related to the general's carelessness. He once wondered why he didn't like to wear Wenxin monograms when he was a child, but the latter just said indifferently. [Afraid that you will feel inferior after seeing this], the general was so angry that he immediately dispatched troops to the border and had no energy to think too much.

Looking back later, I see flaws everywhere.

Chu Yao said: "Because it's not necessary."

How good his lord is, why should he be secretive?

Do you recognize Zheng Qiao?

He was afraid that he would have nightmares at night.

The general frowned: "If you think that a mere national seal can do anything, you are overestimating it. A national seal can never prove anything." If a national seal can guard the country, Chu State back then Nor will it perish.

Which country doesn’t have a national seal?

In the hands of the weak, this thing is the original sin. A man is innocent, but he is guilty of carrying the jade. It is an invitation from the king of hell. Shiwu will only be more excited if he knows it; if it is placed in the hands of the strong, it is just the icing on the cake. He thought Chu Yao would not be superstitious. it.

If Shen Tang's motivation to seize military power is just a piece of national seal, the general can only say that it is a pity.

He might even launch an attack on Shen Tang first.

The reason is simple——

The general didn't know what Chu Yao was planning, but a piece of the national seal came to Yonggu Pass. Outside the pass was Shiwu's territory. They had been coveting the national seal for more than a year or two. Whenever any news leaked, Shiwu would gather all night long to count. One hundred thousand soldiers and horses are pressing down on the border? Use the largest number of troops, the fastest speed, and the smallest price to seize the national seal before Zheng Qiao and his like can react.

In order to prevent Shiwu from going crazy and causing trouble, and to prevent the consequences of the national seal falling into Shiwu, the Lord Commander can only strike first and nip the danger in the bud.

The general suppressed his emotions and tried to communicate peacefully with the former Faxiao: "You can go anywhere, but you should not come to Longwu County. Is this national seal more meaningful for guarding the gate, or is it more likely to send a big gift to Shiwu? big……"

"Who can afford the consequences?"

"Is it you? Or is it your master Shen Jun?"

"Are you a commoner in Longwu County?"

Facing the general's calm question with a hint of murderous intent, Chu Yao just said: "As long as the lord is here, nothing will happen to the national border barrier. If there is no problem with the national border barrier, there will be no worries about the 20,000 to 30,000 troops stationed at Yonggu Pass." .The Lord wanted to stay in the increasingly prosperous Heyin to plan for the future, but the real ruler Zheng Qiao failed in his duties, so she could only act as the emperor on behalf of the emperor, nothing more."

"Whether the national seal can do anything depends on whose hands it is."

Commander: "..."

He didn't reply further.

He just frowned in thought and glanced at Xu Quan and Xu Quan. After recalling the changes in their expressions just now, he asked Chu Yao in a casual tone like chatting with old friends: "Is there anything you need?"

Xu Quan and Xu Quan were confused: "???"

Why does the topic change so quickly???

Chu Yao looked slightly green and said: "No need."

The general didn't seem to believe Chu Yao, and glanced at Xu Quan and Xu Quan again: "Wu Hui doesn't worry about the complications?"

Both of them were confused, but Chu Yao understood that his ex, Fa Xiao, was asking him if he needed to kill someone to silence him.

After all, judging from the reactions of Xu Quan and Xu Quan, they didn't know much about the national seal and were worried that they would leak the secret.

The dead are the best at keeping their mouths shut.

Just go back and say that he was killed by Shiwu bandits.

Chu Yao knew his methods very well.

only--

unnecessary!

Chu Yao: "You are the biggest 'branch'!"

He knew his ex from a young age more than ten years ago. He was not sure how much the other person had changed in the intervening years, and he could not guarantee that the other person would do something "crazy".

The national seal is a double-edged sword for Yonggu Pass.

The Lord will not trust Shen Tang.

This sword is harmful to him.

After all, it is indeed difficult for a new county governor who wants to seize military power as soon as he comes up to win the approval of the veteran generals.

The general actually laughed when he heard this comment.

"That's true."

Chu Yao: "..."

The general casually ordered Lu Jue.

"Well, it's up to you. You go back and tell your lord a letter, saying that your meritorious Mr. Cao is visiting Yonggu Pass to reminisce with his old friends. He is not in a hurry to hire people. He can wait for March or May. He will definitely let Wu Go back in good condition. If you are in a hurry, please come to the door in person. The key to seizing military power lies in the morale of the army. Let us see why a kid with a yellow mouth dares to make such bold statements!"

When Lu Jue heard this, he realized that this was the rhythm of detaining people.

Even if he gets angry he gets up.

But no matter how good his talent was, he couldn't resist starting too late, and was directly suppressed and frightened by the power of his master, who was calm.

"Brute strength is not enough to convince the sergeant. Are all the brave warriors under Lord Shen as reckless as you?"

Lu Jue's face turned livid.

Until Chu Yao said: "Shou Sheng, go and deliver a letter."

Lu Jue said: "But..."

Chu Yao: "Wen Shi is still there, and I am not powerless. Although the two of us can't do anything to Yonggu Pass, we can still open the eyes of General Chu and Chief Yu by working together. By then, There are two less people in the army, I think the 'fisherman' Shi Wu will be very happy. General Chu has always put the overall situation first, and he will not neglect us, so you can rest assured."

Commander: "..."

This was the first time I was threatened by Chu Yao.

He had no other intention of "detaining" people. He just wanted to see whether the Huangkou boy who "performed the duties of the emperor" in Chu Yao's mouth was good at what he said, or whether he was really outstanding.

It’s hard to believe Chu Yao’s words alone.

If he is the only one, he can believe it.

But he is the commander-in-chief, and more than 20,000 brothers have entrusted their lives to him, so he cannot believe it easily.

So, seeing is believing.

If the goods are not right, Yongguguan is also a good place to start, nipping the hidden dangers in the bud.

It just depends on whether Mr. Shen has the courage to go to the meeting alone.

Lu Jue looked like he was struggling for several breaths.
