Cheng Zhu is just an ignorant second-generation ancestor. He has read several books but cannot even pass the provincial examination. It was only thanks to his uncle Cheng Yuan's relationship that he managed to get a job as a county captain. But there is a saying that if a person achieves the Tao, a chicken or a dog will ascend to heaven. Cheng Xueqi was favored by Emperor Yan Ping and selected as the imperial concubine. She was deeply loved and promoted all the way to the position of imperial concubine. Naturally, she had to take care of her family.
He Zeneng's defeat of the rebels was inseparable from his own martial arts strategy, but Cheng Xueqi didn't understand this. She only thought this was an opportunity to grab credit, and encouraged Emperor Yan Ping to change the commander before the formation and let Cheng Zhu Serve as the marshal against thieves.
After Cheng Zhu received the imperial edict, he left Kyoto in a majestic manner. Everyone wanted to beat gongs and drums along the way to spread the news. Therefore, although Qianzhou was still at war, the change of commanders was not It still reached Li Yixian's ears.
Li Yixian sneered and ordered everyone to stick to the city and ignore He Ze's provocation. He just waited for someone else to come and settle the accounts properly.
If Li Yixian could receive the news, He Ze would only know it earlier than him. Because of this matter, the prince sent a secret message to him, asking him to wait and see what happens.
Although He Ze was unwilling to do so, he still accepted Emperor Yan Ping's imperial edict and ordered all actions to be suspended, waiting for the arrival of the new commander-in-chief.
At night, He Ze was alone in the open space outside the camp in a daze. He couldn't help but feel filled with emotion when he recalled his previous days under Li Jun.
Li Jun knows how to make good use of people, and he treats these soldiers with sincerity. He will reward them for their merits and punish them for their mistakes. Work on meritocracy and never seek nepotism. Qin Yao was Li Jun's most trusted subordinate, but Li Jun only allowed him to serve as the commander of the personal army and did not allow him to interfere in other people's affairs.
When he was in the Huben Army, He Ze led the army alone, and he decided to direct all operations on his own, which gave He Ze a lot of room for growth, so much so that he felt that he was actually not inferior to Li Jun. , only because of Li Han's status as a prince, he had no choice but to succumb to him. However, Li Jun was not favored by Emperor Yan Ping. As a general under him, General Zhendong might be the end of his life, so He Ze was naturally unwilling to do so. He felt that his talents could be used in a greater space, so when the prince came to him, he sized up the situation and agreed to the prince's internal cooperation to get rid of Li Jun, and he would be in charge of the Tiger Army.
In fact, he got his wish, but he was in sole control of the Tiger Army for more than a year but failed to win over the army's morale. Emperor Yan Ping had Lu Tong take his place with an imperial edict, and Cheng Zhu took his place with another imperial edict. He was clearly the commander-in-chief of the army, but why did he always have to be replaced by those who were inferior to him and didn't even understand the art of war? The person riding on the head?
He thought that getting rid of Li Jun would lead to a brighter future, but it turned out that the journey became narrower and narrower. The more contact he had, the more he realized that Li Jun was the one who understood him. It's not that Li Jun doesn't want to give him a chance, it's just that he can't wait to attack Li Jun first. Even so, Li Jun did not kill him after he recovered. He knewIt is extremely easy to kill someone, especially an enemy, silently on the battlefield, but Li Jun still cares about his old relationship and treats him with leniency. Although I got a beating, it was worth it.
When he returned to Beijing to show his merits, Li Jun did not snatch his military honors. Instead, he strongly recommended Emperor Yan Ping and joined forces with the prince and the Ministry of War to win for him the position of commander of the Southern Conquest Army.
"Human, the older you get, the easier it is to think about what you have and what you don't have."
He Ze laughed at himself, feeling nostalgic for the past, but he did not regret choosing the prince.
Cheng Zhu was indeed a clueless idiot. He put on airs as soon as he arrived at the military camp and directly ordered He Ze to be stripped of all military positions, just to give others a blow. And He Ze just accepted the decision quite calmly.
After Cheng Zhu obtained military power, he immediately sent troops to attack the city.

The city of Qianzhou is tall, and Li Yixian is firmly in the city, with hundreds of thousands of troops. The people of Qianzhou have been severely harmed, and they are the most supportive of the uprising. The rebel army has already occupied the favorable location and people. On the other hand, there were only 50,000 soldiers who went out to conquer the South. However, under the leadership of He Ze, they fought and won consecutive battles, which was a great boost in morale. He Ze was brave and resourceful and had led troops for many years. He was a veteran general. If this battle The war is under the command of He Ze, and victory will be a matter of time, and may even be won at the lowest cost. However, the commander was changed before the battle, and he was replaced by Cheng Zhu, who was arrogant and ignorant of military skills. This man was narrow-minded and immediately took He Ze's military position, which made his soldiers even more dissatisfied with him.
Cheng Zhu didn’t understand the art of war, so naturally he didn’t know how to command. He just gave an order for the soldiers to rush forward, while he hid in the military camp and watched the fun.
The result can be imagined. Most of the soldiers were killed or wounded, but they still died meaninglessly because they could not get the order to retreat. He Ze couldn't stand it anymore and led the siege generals to the central tent.
"Cheng Shuai, please order the siege to stop."
Cheng Zhu hugged the concubine he brought and said unhappily: "You are no longer the commander-in-chief of the Southern Conquest Army. , it’s not your turn to do what I want to do!”
“In siege battles, we always choose to attack by force when we are ten times stronger than the enemy. However, Qianzhou City has strong walls and our army has strong strength. It's not as good as the rebels. Attacking them is just sacrificing the lives of the soldiers in vain."
Cheng Zhu snorted and said teasingly: "Hey, are you complaining about them? He Ze, don't forget. My brother-in-law is your master. Do you dare to disobey His Majesty’s orders?”
“If you don’t dare, just shut up!” Say more, and you will attack the city with those cowards."
"Who are you calling a coward?" The unconvinced general was even more furious when he heard this, and he grabbed Cheng Zhu's arm. The collar scolded: "What qualifications do you, a bastard like you, have to point fingers in the commander's tent?"
Although the rest of the people were angry, they were still angry.It was because Cheng Zhu was the commander-in-chief appointed by Emperor Yan Ping that he did not dare to speak out. When he saw someone coming forward, he breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time was afraid that his colleagues would suffer a loss. They all stepped forward to persuade him: "General An, calm down and don't be like this kid." General knowledge."
After everyone's persuasion, An Fang let go of Cheng Zhu. But Cheng Zhu was taken aback by this. Not only did he not show any intention of repenting, he even shouted to himself: "My surname is An, just wait for me. When I win the battle and return to Beijing, I will give you a copy of it to my brother-in-law." < /p>
"Report! The city gate is open!"
Cheng Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this and said arrogantly: "Did you see? I won this battle!"
