What did Zhao Kuangyin want to do?Guo Shao asked again after Zuo You came in.

The two were silent.

Guo Shaoxun: Zhao Kuangyin's hard power is definitely the strongest among the entire Zhou Dynasty military generals!

Perhaps there are still some people in the court who have not figured out the situation yet and believe that Zhao Kuangyin's qualifications and status are not very high; but Guo Shao will not be confused by this superficial phenomenon.

In terms of qualifications, only the military governors of Hebei Fu Yanqing, Wang Zhang, the Jieshuai of the Northwest towns, etc. dare to discuss qualifications. How many dynasties have they experienced?

But now under the overwhelming advantage of the imperial guards, the Jieshou generals are no longer warlords like the Tang Dynasty, and it is useless not to be as experienced as a turtle.

Zhang Yongde, the most senior general in the imperial guards, dared not tell his qualifications. Zhang Yongde has only started his family for a few years, not much earlier than Zhao Kuangyin. He was promoted by Taizu Guo Wei at the beginning.

The Zhou Dynasty has only been in existence for seven years since Guo Wei raised his troops to Tokyo.

Less than four years since Chai Rong ascended the throne, the oldest veteran who was highly valued in Chai Rong was the military generals who started their career in the Battle of Gaoping, including Zhao Kuangyin, Guo Shao and others, who were truly the generals that Chai Rong Dynasty relied on.

The remaining Taizu promoted those who did not stand in the right position in the Battle of Gaoping, or were killed (after the Battle of Gaoping, more than 100 generals were killed one after another), or were sent to Jiezhen.

Chai Rong had a great prestige in the army and his imperial guards were cohesive. The key was that the imperial guards eliminated the remaining people who supported him, and the distinction during the Battle of Gaoping was the top priority.

(The Battle of Gaoping is a representative event of Chai Rong's domineering expression. It is a quick, effective and decisive approach that is like a storm of wind on the outside and inside!)

It makes no sense to just talk about the level of positions. Among the military generals, Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin are of no use.

Li Chongjin stopped talking about it. He had been in Yangzhou after the Battle of Huainan and was transferred to Hedong on the eve of the Northern Expedition. He and Xiang Xun were there to guard against the Khitan, but he had not returned to our town.

Zhang Yongde's strength is not as strong as Zhao Kuangyin, the commander in front of the palace, because...

The Iron Cavalry Army was almost Zhao Kuangyin's direct lineage!

The two major systems of the Zhou Dynasty imperial guards, the four main forces and the squads, totaled about 140,000 people.

The Imperial Guard is the most elite force in the entire country, and the Iron Cavalry is the most elite among the Imperial Guards.

The two main forces of the Palace Front Office, the Crane Control Army has always performed worryingly, and the Iron Cavalry Army is the one who truly supports the status of the Palace Front Office.

Of course, if you have to obey the rules and military laws, Zhao Kuangyin is really nothing. Zhang Yongde and the Privy Council above can have the right to veto his actions.

But if everyone doesn't follow the rules, Zhao Kuangyin has obvious advantages in the control and prestige in the Iron Cavalry.

Guo Shao also believed that if it were not for the revenge of life and death, the future empress regime would have been focused on Zhao Kuangyin; the risk of Zhao Kuangyin's direct mutiny was too great, and the winning rate might be less than 50%, and he would definitely not be willing to do it; and it would be wise to play first and then gradually gain momentum.

But now, everything is different.

...Guo Shao also has 20,000 people under his command, and many military generals of all sizes, but he can only conspire with Zuo You here first.

It's too dangerous to say this.

The house in this hall is lonely and has thick walls, so Guo Shao chose to discuss it here. He had deployed several confidant soldiers nearby to prevent ordinary people from getting close.

Guo Shao pondered for a long time and finally said: I want Zhao Kuangyin to take advantage of him at this moment.

Zuo You also agreed with his statement: There is still a chance to fight, and if you don’t fight, you will definitely lose.

Yes, I missed this chaotic situation, and once the old and new powers were replaced, Zhao Kuangyin would not be able to move.Guo Shao said that when the queen is in power, she will first strictly prevent, weaken and clean Zhao Kuangyin.He has no military and political power in the court, and he has no power to mobilize troops or garrison. How can he play games?

Guo Shao pondered: If he doesn't want to delegate power and run away, he will have to use real swords and guns in the end.Anyway, I will definitely take action. I will be able to be controlled everywhere in the future. Why not take advantage of the current opportunity?

If it is another mediocre person, he has no courage to give it a try, it is like a pig being killed, and it dares not bite people, and can only wait for death tremblingly; but because his opponent is Zhao Kuangyin, Guo Shao believed that he would make the wisest only choice!

The most challenging choice!

The most risky method is sometimes the least risky and most effective method.

Zuo You asked the question just now again: The lord thought, what is Zhao Kuangyin’s strategy and what do you want to do?

He wants to mutiny!Guo Shao said directly.

The two of them looked at each other in an instant, leaving only the wind outside whistling, making the trees rustle.

Guo Shao said in a deep voice: I tried to speculate on his intentions, and imagined how to do it is Zhao Kuangyin's wisest choice... I want to find clues to his strategy.

If I guess correctly.Zhao Kuangyin believed that I was the biggest and most thorough rebel, because like him, if I don’t resist, I will die without a burial place and I have no choice!Zhao Kuangyin's current purpose is to transfer me, the most stubborn rebel, from the capital, so that his subordinates' direct descendants had no heads, or had no time to react together; then forge an edict, fabricate a name such as pursuing the imperial edict to clear the king's side, with a confidant as the core, without too many people, and use the Iron Cavalry battalions to strengthen the momentum and intimidate other people in the capital... The ultimate goal is to use some elite troops to capture the two key points of Jinxiang Hall and control the Privy Council Government Affairs Hall, especially Jinxiang Hall.Then use the center to clean up the mess.

After saying that, Guo Shao said coldly: If I were Zhao Kuangyin and I was in my current situation, I would have done this.

Zuo You's face had turned bloodless.

Guo Shao also said: Time is very important.Once the Iron Cavalry Army is dispatched, no one except the emperor has the prestige to repel them... Zhang Yongde?There is no need for Zhang Yongde to take such a big risk and follow Zhao Kuangyin to fight desperately, and he might be detained in front of the palace.Privy Councilor?Wang Pu is good at strategy and wisdom, but he is unreasonable and can be defeated by the death. What can he do? Who in the army knows him? After the Battle of Gaoping, Wang Pu's work was still responsible for writing articles in the house.Are you prime ministers and civil servants?It's even more a joke. The martial artists have picked up swords and guns, but it would be strange if they can listen to civil officials.Only the emperor can curb the situation!

So Zhao Kuangyin must choose the right time.

It cannot be too early. It is best for the emperor to be bedridden or be unable to speak, but the palace does not directly send messages and the timing is difficult to pinpoint... Now you can also take a risk if you can't speak loudly.

It cannot be too late. As soon as the official family dies, the people in the center will definitely listen to the queen's order immediately.The queen will directly transfer my troops and the troops that are trustworthy in the army. Zhao Kuangyin has no chance... so we are in danger now.

Guo Shao sighed: Our most stable situation is of course that everyone is peaceful. When the queen takes power, what are you afraid of?I think we have a greater chance, but if we are careless at this critical moment, no matter how many opportunities are, we will be beaten to the end in one go.

Zuo You said: What is the lord’s intention?

Guo Shao said coldly: They want to use force, do we have any reason to say?It is necessary to start the deployment and prepare to use troops directly in Tokyo!But when he saw Zuo You looking fearful, Guo Shao comforted him, Mr. Zuo, wealth and honor are in danger, and you can become the prime minister and be rich and prosperous.

Zuo You didn't say anything.

Guo Shao stroked him and said: When I was a young general, Mr. Zuo was my aide. Everyone knew it, and Zhao Kuangyin probably knew it too.If we are unfortunately defeated, no one will escape.

Zuo You raised his head and said seriously: I am a normal man, I want to vote for someone with great ambitions!Why do I come out to do something if I’m afraid of death? I might as well go home and hold the child!

good!Guo Shao smiled, his words were rough but not rough.Do it!

Zuo You hurriedly said: What should I do if I go out of Beijing to find a elixir?

What else can I do?You can fool it as long as you can. If you can't do it, you will just raise an army. Whoever fucks out of Tokyo will be a fool!Guo Shao cursed quietly.

At this moment, someone asked for a visit, and the old man Huang Blacksmith from Guo Shao's mansion sent him a message.The two people in the room stopped talking in a low voice, and for a moment, the sound of rain and wind filled the house.

Guo Shao looked at it and said to Zuo You: Zan Jurun, it came so quickly.I guess he dared not neglect the imperial edict.

Bring people in.Guo Shao said.

Then he sat for a while before he asked Zuo You to walk out of the hall and greet him at the door of the house.

As a general of the Guards Department, it is already very polite and enthusiastic to welcome the envoy of the guests at the door of the house.

After a while, a civil servant in his thirties came over with an umbrella, and bowed under the steps with his fists and said: General Guo, are you okay?

Guo Shao could still laugh and bowed with a smile on his face: I'm fine.The envoy of Zan came up first to avoid the rain.

Zan Jurun walked under the eaves and put his umbrella in it. Seeing that there was a wooden barrel at the door and there were a few wet umbrellas in it, he also put his wet umbrella inside.

Guo Shao said: Not long after I came back from Danei, but unexpectedly, the envoy Zan arrived so soon.

Zan Jurun turned around and sighed: This is an imperial edict from the palace, and it is also an urgent matter to find elixirs for the officials.How dare you delay?As soon as I received the imperial edict, I quickly prepared the carriage and horses. I had to ask General Guo when he planned to set off so that I could prepare the cost on the road and leave the capital with General Guo.

It's almost the hour of You (6 p.m.) now?Guo Shao pondered, it must be too late today, why not... the day after tomorrow?

Zan Jurun said: Why is tomorrow not possible?

Guo Shao acted like he wanted to speak but stopped: Some things... Alas, forget it.In short, we have to prepare, pick some trustworthy followers and guard the troops.Zan Jun, this matter is very important, and if you are anxious, you may cause chaos.To prepare for one day tomorrow, I have to go to the military camp to report, and it will be very tight for a day.

But... I'm afraid that others will say we will delay.Zan Ju Run said, it’s better to leave tomorrow. There is no need to report the election. At most one or two hundred people are at the top. We can’t lead an army out of the capital.What if it is tomorrow afternoon?

Guo Shao pondered for a moment, reluctantly saying: OK, then I will go picking people tomorrow morning, hurry up and set off in the afternoon.Then, according to what the envoy Zan said, there is no need to report it.

good.After saying that, Zan Jurun turned around and said, "It's really a bad time to rain, and there are many inconveniences to travel on the rainy day."
