Chapter 358 Two Conditions

"The Liao army is invading the whole country, Yan Yun is in danger, and someone must lead troops to rescue him. I have been thinking about it, and you are the most suitable!"

Zhao Ji said to Ning Fu with a serious expression.

After listening to it, Ning Fu showed a thoughtful expression, which had not been expressed for a long time.

This made Zhao Ji look nervous. Since he ascended the throne, he has been very cold to Ning Fu, so he is also worried that Ning Fu will refuse.

In order not to stimulate Ning Fu, Zhao Ji did not ask Cai Jing to come to Chuigong Hall. He talked about this matter alone with Ning Fu. If Ning Fu refused, he would lose face and be a little bit of a loss, but if Yan Yun lost it again, that problem would be

But that's big.

"Report to the official family, I am willing to go!"

Ning Fu finally looked up and said, which made Zhao Ji feel relieved.

"But I have two conditions!"

Unexpectedly, Ning Fu said again immediately.

"Which two conditions, just open your mouth!"

Zhao Ji waved his hand and said generously.

"First, the reinforcements that support Yan Yun should not be too strong. The new army was rotated to part of the capital before, and these new army were enough to rescue Yan Yun!"

Ning Fu proposed the first condition.

He led the new army to recover Yan Yun, but later Zhao Xu urgently summoned him to Beijing. Ning Fu led an army of 10,000, and these ten thousand new troops were later transferred to the capital to station.

After Zhao Ji ascended the throne, he transferred back 20,000 to 30,000 new troops from Yanyun one after another. On the one hand, the imperial guards in the capital were really useless and needed to be supplemented by the new troops.

On the other hand, this is also the practice of the strong and weak branches of the Song Dynasty. After all, the local army is too strong and will threaten the central government's rule. Therefore, whether it is the new army or the northwest imperial guards, they will be stationed in the capital.

Finally, there is another important reason, which is to weaken Ning Fu's influence on Yan Yun. After all, everyone knows that the new army was brought out by Ning Fu, and Yan Yun was also led by him to capture it.

Therefore, Ning Fu has a very high prestige in Yanyun. If Ning Fu continues to stay in Yanyun, he can even be named a king.

The Song Dynasty finally took back Yan Yun, so naturally he did not want someone to have a prestige beyond the court. What's more, Zhao Ji disliked Ning Fu very much, so he transferred the new army back to part.

So when Zhao Ji and Cai Jing were so panicked when they learned that the Liao army was heading south. After all, after the new army was transferred back part of it, Yan Yun's troops were a little empty.

In addition, after the new army was transferred back to the capital, it would be convenient for Zhao Ji and Cai Jing to mix sand. This would not take long, Ning Fu would lose the command of the new army, thus completely seizing Ning Fu's military power.

"Yes, if there are not enough new troops in the capital, I can draw a portion of the imperial guards!"

Zhao Ji agreed without hesitation.

Since he wanted to invite Ning Fu to lead his army to the expedition, Zhao Ji had already made psychological preparations in this regard.

"There is no need for the imperial guards. They have no experience in fighting with the Liao army. No matter how much they mobilize, they can't help!"

Ning Fu refused to say.

Ning Fu is not unaware of the situation of the imperial guards in the capital. In addition to the rotation of imperial guards, the local imperial guards have long been terrible, and it is a trivial matter to eat empty salaries. Some imperial guards even resell weapons and armor in the army.

Almost all the major military camps around the capital are large casinos, and even outsiders can enter the military camps to gamble. There are also some fireworks women coming and going, and there are not many people who are really practicing the imperial guards in the capital.

Only when the above needs to be inspected will these military camps temporarily piece together an army to fool the above. So although there are hundreds of thousands of imperial guards in the capital, in fact, it may be less than 100,000. If you really fight, you would rather

Re-Yi Zi confident that he can sweep them with 20,000 new troops.

This is definitely not Ning Fu's conceit, but the imperial guards in the capital were so bad. Many years later, the Jin army used tens of thousands of people to sweep hundreds of thousands of troops across the capital, and almost no major casualties were paid.

"Okay, what's the second condition?"

Zhao Ji did not know the situation of the imperial guards in the capital, and thought Ning Fu preferred to use the new army, so he didn't say much.

"Second, I need to fully command the new army in the entire Yanyun area and no one is allowed to interfere!"

Ning Fu spoke again.

Zhao Ji also showed a hesitant expression. He was not at ease with Ning Fu to lead the troops, so he had long planned to send a military supervisor to Yanyun with Ning Fu.

However, unexpectedly, Ning Fu actually offered full command and did not allow outsiders to interfere, that is, there was no military supervisor, which made Zhao Ji a little worried.

So after thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ji finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you!"

Zhao Ji weighed the pros and cons, but still felt that Yan Yun’s crisis must be solved by Ning Fu, so he agreed with Ning Fu’s conditions.

However, Zhao Ji had already made up his mind that when Yan Yun's crisis was lifted, he would definitely remove Ning Fu's military power as soon as possible, and then hide him and would never use it in the future.

"The official is wise!"

Ning Fu seemed to have no idea what Zhao Ji was thinking, and at this time he saluted to the other party quite calmly.

Zhao Ji then issued an imperial edict, appointing Ning Fu as the general manager of the 16 prefectures of Yanyun, commanding the troops of the 16 prefectures, and being fully responsible for resisting the Liao army's southward movement.

After receiving the imperial edict, Ning Fu immediately rushed to the military camp outside the city as soon as possible.

"Kill and kill~"

As soon as Ning Fu arrived outside the military camp, he heard the murderous sound of training inside, which made him nodded secretly. Hutou and the others did not slacken.

"Brother Xiao Yi!"

Hutou received the news and immediately rushed to the camp gate to greet him. When he saw Ning Fu, he hugged him excitedly.

Since returning to the capital, Ning Fu has never been to the military camp again in order to avoid suspicion, and has never even seen Hutou once. After all, Cai Jing must have sent a lot of people to stare at him. If he is not careful, he may be sued by the other party.

Previous situation.

"Let's go in and talk!"

Ning Fu patted Hu's head on the shoulder, and then the two entered the military camp.

However, after entering the military camp, Ning Fu frowned because he found that some soldiers' clothes were worn and their weapons were damaged. After all, the new army trained every day and suffered great damage to their clothes and weapons.

"The court is still deducting the materials and wages of the new army?"

Ning Fu immediately asked Hutou and the generals below.

"Xuezheng, when will we go back to Yanyun? We can't stay in this capital anymore!"

Hearing Ning Fu's inquiry, a general immediately stepped forward with red eyes and said.

Their new army who were transferred back to the capital did not live well in the future. The imperial guards in the capital excluded them, and the imperial court did not like them.

Especially after Ning Fu lost power, the supplies and food that should belong to the new army were often deducted, resulting in their number and clothing being broken and their weapons being damaged, and they could not be replaced.
