Chapter 91 Weakness
"Ami, what exactly did His Majesty say in the imperial edict?"
"I really want to separate you from the army?"
Li Bo, An Wensheng, Gao Dalong and others all worked together with Su Dawei and suffered losses.
Seeing such a paradoxical thing happening, an ominous premonition surged in my heart.
According to convention, the Western Army has achieved such a great victory, and should return to Chang'an to "promote prisoners and praise their merits" and accept the cheers of the people of Chang'an. At that time, the streets are full of fragrance and flowers, and everyone is rushing to admire them.
That is a great honor.
When Su Dingfang returned from suppressing the rebellion, he received such courtesy.
This time, Su Dawei made great contributions in the battle to destroy Tubo.
Although Su Dingfang decided with him the strategy of expedition to the foreign countries, most of the specific implementation was done by Su Dawei.
With this article alone, the imperial edict ordered Su Dawei to stand on time and ordered the other generals to lead their troops back to Chang'an to be extremely unreasonable.
What's more, there is Su Dingfang's funeral.
Su Dingfang died in the army, and Su Dawei, as his son and nephew, should have handled his funeral.
What's more, Su Qingjie continued to fight for the country in India.
What does it mean to keep Su Dawei in Shu at this time?
"Maintain..."
A trace of entanglement flashed across Lou Shide's fat face, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "If it is...if...the army is above and below, all the generals will be obeyed."
If it was something, he didn't say it, but Su Dawei already understood what he didn't say.
Most of this tens of thousands of troops in the Western Army had experienced the Western Turks or the Liaodong campaign.
When Su Dingfang was in the past, Su Ding Convenience was their backbone.
Now that Su Dingfang is gone, Su Dawei is the leader of the army.
The soldiers in the army are the simplest. Who will lead them to fight and win?
Who do they accept?
It can even be said to be exaggerated. From Su Dingfang to Su Dawei, these soldiers who have been on the war for many years have already stamped with the chrome seal with the character "Su".
Even if it is the imperial court's will, as long as it is not said by the emperor himself, the soldiers below will stand on Su Dawei's side psychologically.
A fierce light flashed in the tall dragon's eyes and said coldly: "I have never read any books, but I also know that the birds are gone and the good bow is hidden. Does the emperor think that the war is over and you are annoying? If this is the case, at most, you can pull people up and draw a piece of land by yourself, which is very happy."
He endured it for a while and did not say the four words "occupying land is king".
"Don't talk nonsense."
Su Dawei scolded: "It's not what you think."
"It's not what we thought, and what?"
Gao Dalong sneered: "You are all good, but you are just some mother-in-law and mother who are constantly in trouble."
Su Dawei's eyes turned to Gao Dalong: "Do you know that my family and many other families in the army are in Chang'an? If there are any disobedients, their heads will be hung on the flag the next day."
"The kindness of a woman."
Gao Dalong shook his head, quite disappointed.
He and Gao Dahu, of course, also have family members in Chang'an.
But one can secretly get someone to pick it up, and two, he is becoming increasingly strange, and his mind is no longer the big leader of the past, but the strangeness of half-human and half-demon.
I just feel that even if the so-called relatives die, it is not a big deal.
As long as he and Gao Dahu are together, they will be able to have a baby with his wife in the future.
Su Dawei turned his eyes to An Wensheng and Li Bo: "Your Majesty's decree mentioned that since last year, there have been frequent droughts and floods everywhere, with many epidemics, especially in Shu. So I hope I will share the worries of the country and wait for the appointment of the court."
This autumnal saying made Lou Shide, who looked tangled and painful, feel refreshed: "So, has the imperial court appointed another appointment to the general manager? That's good. If it's not targeting the general manager, I can rest assured."
Lou Shide himself was from the imperial examination, was known as a child prodigy, and was a generation of Jingyang family, so he was quite unwilling to be enemies with the court.
But after following Su Dawei for so many years, the marks on his body could not be washed off.
Whether he wants to or not, he will be regarded as the Su Dawei party.
If the court really had the intention to kill Su Dawei, he would not be able to escape.
Now, when Su Dawei further mentioned the meaning of the imperial edict, it was actually for the disaster.
To see this, it is not because Su Dawei's "great achievements" are the ones who want to make a decision, but because he has to make some appointments in the local area.
Since ancient times, I have been valued by the emperor and went to the local area to experience it. This is not a punishment, but rather a manifestation of the emperor's respect.
After training in the local area, you will inevitably soar into the sky, enter the center of the court, and become the minister you rely on.
Thinking of this, Lou Shide showed a look of gratitude on his face.
"Natural." Gao Dalong shook his head aside, showing a mocking look on his face as if he was smiling.
Li Bo frowned slightly, but he wanted to speak but stopped.
Obviously, the purpose of the imperial edict alone cannot convince the public.
There was a wall that fell and everyone pushed it. As long as Su Dawei was ordered to stay in Bashu by the imperial edict halfway, the news spread that the army would turn back to Chang'an by itself.
People in the world will only think that this is a derogatory reprimand against Su Dawei, just like Wang Bo.
This is obviously a mistake and was beaten by His Majesty.
It is still unknown whether you can get up again in the future.
It is conceivable that how many enemies Su Dawei offended on weekdays, such as whale oil lamps, public transportation offices, liquor business, business travel, ice making and inns in Chang'an, blocking many people's financial resources.
In the past, Su Dawei was in power, but these people dared not do anything.
But now, once Su Dawei shows up in the court, he will inevitably come out and step on it.
With just one word of relief, one cannot reward any merits, he will not return to Chang'an to offer prisoners and praise merits, and he will not be allowed to participate in the affairs behind Su Dingfang as his son and nephew of Su Dingfang.
This is the signal.
A storm is brewing, and I don’t know how many people it will affect.
I don’t know how many people will be pulled down from the horse because they get close to Su Dawei.
The atmosphere in the tent instantly condensed.
Su Dawei glared at Gao Dalong, looked at Li Bo, and shook his head slightly and said, "No, the eunuch who sent the order gave me a letter from my sister in private."
"Empress Wu?"
"My sister said that since the Fengshan Mountains of Mount Tai, disasters in the world have occurred frequently and material discussions have occurred. As a person who is trustworthy with His Majesty, I will definitely share my worries with her and the emperor at this critical moment, so that I will not worry and wait for the imperial court to promulgate the appointment."
"I see."
Lou Shide added his forehead with his hands and said happily: "If you have the meaning of Empress Wu, then this matter will not be wrong."
Who doesn’t know who is standing behind Su Dawei?
He and Wu Meiniang are named kings and ministers, and are actually sisters and sisters.
As long as Wu Meiniang's attitude towards him remains unchanged, Su Dawei's position in the heart of the emperor will be as stable as Mount Tai.
“That’s exactly that.”
Su Dawei nodded and said, "Teacher ethics, go outside first to see what the situation is going on in each camp, soothe the soldiers and don't make any trouble."
"Here." Lou Shide bowed to Su Dawei with his hands, took a few steps back, and walked out of the tent.
When he walked away, in the silent tent, An Wensheng suddenly spoke: "There is no secret letter from Empress Wu at all."
"how?"
Li Bo was shocked.
Gao Dalong hugged his arms and sneered: "This matter can be hidden from others, but it must be hidden from my eyes and An Wensheng. There is no secret letter at all."
"Master General, Empress Wu didn't trust you?"
Su Dawei smiled bitterly: "No."
"Then you just now?"
"The more time this is, the more we need to calm people's hearts. I won't say that, I'm afraid Lou Shide and the soldiers are in panic. If something really happened, I'm afraid I'll be unable to argue."
The soldiers in the army were extremely convinced by Su Dawei.
If you think that the court really wants to deal with Su Dawei, you may not be sure that there will be a loyal person who will cause something in the military camp.
If that happens.
Then it will be fake and become true.
Even though the court had no intention of dealing with Su Dawei, at that point, it became Su Dawei's "military refusal" to resist the order.
Gao Dalong hugged his arms and snorted: "If you want me, you shouldn't be scruples. At worst, you can take off your skin. With your ability, where can't you go in the world?"
"Xiao Su and my mother are all in Chang'an."
Su Dawei sighed: "If I do this, I will harm them."
"You have changed."
Gao Dalong stared at Su Dawei's face with his eyes, and blood flashed in his eyes: "You and I are beyond ordinary people, how can we be bound by the personal relationships of human children? Look at yourself, how can you be as decisive as you were in the past? When you made a big fuss in Fengyifang, you were much more straightforward than now."
"I used to be barefoot, so I was not afraid, but now I have shoes."
Su Dawei said in a pun.
"Master, what should I do now? Do you really need to follow the imperial edict? What if there is any change?..."
An Wensheng interrupted, "Where will the hair be attached to you if you don't have any skin? Ami, what if there is really turmoil here, do you think Nie Su and the others in Chang'an can be safe?"
"I know, but I can't resist the order on the spot."
Su Dawei said calmly: "And I really can't think of any reason Your Majesty and my sister have to accept my military power."
"But the imperial edict clearly means this."
"Don't quarrel, let me be quiet."
"You don't have much time."
Gao Dalong said coldly: "It will take only one hour for the military camp to clean up, and then you can pull up the village and start traveling. If you can't make any decision before that, you will be afraid that you will not even have the power to resist in the end."
Su Dawei shook his head and said to Li Bo and An Wensheng: "The latest information, from the Chang'an court, what you have screened, and all the valuable ones will be given to me for a review."
"Ami, what are you going to do?"
"Information, if there is not enough information, you can only bet on luck."
Su Dawei walked back to the table, sat down and said in a deep voice: "And I never like to bet on luck."
"You want to?"
"There must be an hour to set up the camp. During this hour, everyone works together with me to pass through all the latest information and find useful things."
“What is useful?”
"I need to know all the things that will affect Your Majesty's decision, public opinion, court situation, strength, everything that will affect Your Majesty's decision."
Su Dawei thought, "Even if Your Majesty really wants to be unfavorable to me, he will not reveal any trace. I will have to see it before I can decide what to do next?"
"sentimental."
Gao Dalong pulled the corner of his mouth: "But, maybe you are right."
He put down his hands and said to Su Dawei: "I am not good at doing these intelligence analysis. What can I do for you?"
