The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times
Chapter 89: Regent, please forgive me! This is a trap set by us
"Then tell me, Lao Cao! What can we do? Are we just going to watch our soldiers die on the battlefield with empty stomachs? Ah?"
"Yes, Lao Cao, if we don't have enough food and armor, how can we fight this war?"
"Humph! The emperor has no money to supply food and fodder, but he has enough money to build a palace! Why should we follow such a tyrant?"
"Do you think we want to be traitors? If it weren't for the guys who have followed us for so many years, do you think we want to bear this lifetime of infamy?"
......
Several kneeling generals stood up and excitedly shouted at General Cao. These tall and strong men now had tears on their faces and looked very sad!
Who can understand their despair and helplessness, and what they bear!
When Jun Moxie heard this, the chill in his body disappeared! There is something else going on!
Listening to the five brothers' questions at the top of their lungs and seeing their eyes filled with tears, General Cao said, "You can't just defect to the Jin army. That would be courting death!"
Just stop talking.
The tent became eerily quiet, with only the sound of several generals breathing heavily heard!
At this time, Leng Yi flashed in and handed a letter to Jun Moyue!
Jun Moxie opened the letter and saw the following words written on it: "Deputy General Li, the five of us are in great danger. If you receive news that we are dead, immediately disband the brothers and run for your lives. We cannot let those people seeking fame and reputation on the front line send you to the battlefield to die in vain!"
After reading it, he looked up at the five people who were still glaring at General Cao. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a noise coming from outside!
"Let me in, I have something to report!"
"Get out of the way! Regent, our general is not a traitor. I have evidence! I have evidence! Please listen to me!"
"Regent, our general had no choice!"
......
"Let him in!"
Hearing the master's order, Leng Yi turned around and walked out of the tent and brought the man in!
"I pay my respects to the Regent!"
A deputy general in armor came in and bowed to Jun Moye!
"Who are you? Why are you making a fuss outside the tent?"
"I am General Zhao's deputy general, my last name is Li!"
"Look at this letter. Is it from General Zhao?"
Jun Moxie said while holding up the letter.
Leng Yi took the letter from Jun Moyue and handed it to Lieutenant General Li.
After Lieutenant General Li read the letter carefully, tears quickly filled his eyes!
He knocked his forehead to the ground and said, "That's right!"
Wiping away tears, he continued, "Regent, the generals were forced into a desperate situation. They wanted to defect to the Jin Kingdom for the sake of us, their subordinates! They didn't really defect. The defense maps they brought with them were all fake!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Mo Xie motioned Leng Yi to search the others for the defense map, then looked at Lieutenant General Li seriously and said, "Tell me in detail!"
"Prince Regent, since the battle with the Jin soldiers, the court has only supplied food and grass once. Except for the elite soldiers, the rest of the soldiers don't even have armor! The generals can only use their own money to subsidize the soldiers so that they can at least have a full meal and have the strength to fight the enemy! But a month ago, the generals' wealth was used up to subsidize the soldiers. The soldiers can only eat one meal a day and have no strength at all! The brothers who went to the battlefield were killed by the Jin soldiers like cutting carrots! That was not a war, that was a one-sided massacre! We watched them being slaughtered!"
At this point, Lieutenant General Li choked up. He tried hard to calm down his grief and anger, and then said: "General Zhao had no choice but to order the soldiers in the rear to return to the city, close the city gates, and defend Guanzhong Prefecture, and not go out to fight again! But the generals sent by the court were eager for glory and wanted to force the soldiers to go to the battlefield and die!"
When talking about those generals, Lieutenant General Li gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to bite them to death!
Jun Moxie saw him stop and ordered, "Keep talking!"
"Those generals wrote to the court, saying that General Zhao and other generals were hiding in the city, afraid of death and afraid to fight! The emperor ordered General Zhao and others to lead the army to retreat to Guanxi Prefecture, and even wrote "Turtle General" to humiliate them! If it weren't for the huge Zhao family army and the mediation of Prime Minister Zhao and others in the court, the emperor would probably have ordered General Zhao and others to be executed!"
Speaking of the emperor, Lieutenant General Li's eyes were full of hatred. He concealed it and continued, "Those generals transferred their troops to Guanzhong Prefecture, but did not let them fight. Instead, they recruited new soldiers and sent them to the battlefield to consume the physical strength of the Jin soldiers. Then they launched sneak attacks from time to time. In this way, they killed many Jin soldiers at the cost of so many lives and asked for credit from the court!"
"Bastard!"
Jun Moxie's eyes were filled with frost, and he slammed the table angrily!
"Prince Regent, that's not all. Seeing that the new recruits are almost exhausted, they are targeting our Zhao army and want us to die on the battlefield! If they let us fill our stomachs and have the strength to fight the Jin soldiers, we will do our best. But they let us go to the battlefield hungry and die just for them to sneak attack a few Jin soldiers and falsely report their achievements! Ha! How can we accept that!"
Lieutenant General Li sneered, looked at the gloomy face of the Regent, and continued: "General Zhao and his men couldn't bear to see us die in such a cowardly way! They had no other choice but to go to the Jin army with a fake defense map! Before leaving, General Zhao told me that if they succeeded in going, they would secretly pass on the military intelligence they had gathered about the Jin army to me, and let us act accordingly!"
After Lieutenant General Li finished speaking, he looked into Jun Moye's eyes and pleaded, "Every word I said is true. Your Majesty, please check the defense map. Please, Your Majesty, take a look!"
Jun Moye signaled Lieutenant General to stand up and threw the defense map he had found on General Zhao to General Cao. After looking at it, General Cao said with certainty, "Regent, this defense map is fake!"
Jun Mo Xie heard this and looked at General Zhao and asked, "General Zhao! Is what Deputy General Li said true?"
"Lord Regent, please forgive me! This is a trap set by us! Lieutenant General Li was also kept in the dark, and what he knows is not the truth!"
General Zhao sighed and knelt in front of Jun Moyue and said.
Jun Moxie raised his eyebrows, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Oh? What is the truth? What did you set up? Why did you set it up?"
"Respectfully, Lord Regent, a month ago, after I and my men came here to station, we discovered from several actions that the generals in Guanzhong Prefecture knew everything about the Zhao family army. So we suspected that there was one of their men in the army, and that this man had a high status. We also learned that Lord Regent was inspecting here, so we discussed with several generals and pretended to surrender to the Jin army. Those generals saw me and my men as thorns in their eyes, and they would definitely order their men to tell Lord Regent this news and use you to get rid of us! We just set up a trap and take this opportunity to catch the spy they placed around me!"
"Oh? Then do you know who the spy is?"
"General Sun, General Wang, I don't need to ask you to come out, do I?"
General Zhao looked at the two generals sitting beside him and sneered.
