Zhang Jun felt indescribable sourness in his heart just now.

He practiced martial arts since he was a child. He followed his father to the battlefield. Since then, he has been working in Datong, Xuanfu. The Tartars have seen more than anyone else. This time, he and the governor Li Jin discussed with his civil and military personnel to divide the troops and garrison, but it was not rash to send troops. He thought he was very sure that he would get a reward for the Tartars after he had defeated them. The next autumn and winter would be better. Who would have thought that they would be defeated by others and lose a lot! His family has nothing to do, whether it is dismissed or demoted, or even the emperor was furious, but what should the generals and schools who had been with him for many years do?

These days, the generals and leaders of all families have confidants who are used to serve. The first thing they do when they take office is to re-spatch the people below. If he demoted them, even though he made many old people from commanders to hundreds of households, they will become cannon fodder at the forefront in a blink of an eye, and their fate will only be more miserable than ordinary soldiers!

Therefore, although he was angry that An Daniu had caused such an amazing thing, he gave up his old face to see Xu Xun, a younger generation. Not only for himself, but also wanted to still think of his subordinates and try to plead for these critical moments. Even if it was in vain in the end, it would be better than doing nothing like this. However, he expected several reactions from the other party, but he didn't expect Xu Xun to say such a sentence.

"Mr. Xu, are you saying... want to transfer them under your command?"

Seeing Xu Xun nodding with a smile, Zhang Jun's pupils shrank without realizing that he was about to say something, but when he saw Xu Xun gave in, he introduced the others behind him. While he was waiting for the general's office, he had already inquired about the people sent by the capital this time. Naturally, he knew that the vanguard of the government army was no longer the former head of the Ministry of War, Wang Shouren, but instead of Zhang Yong, the old Eastern Palace, had seen him with courtesy now. When he learned that the two young young masters were actually from noble relatives, he became even more alert. However, Qian Ning, who was big and round, was obviously extremely brave, but he glanced at him and did not pay much attention.

Whether it is Duke Ding or Princess Renhe, he can send people to such a place with confidence. It is undoubtedly because he has great trust in Xu Xun. In this way, Xu Xun just proposed to ask for people will never be a fool!

"This is not the place to speak. General Zhang's injuries have not healed. Let's talk slowly inside."

Xu Xun raised his hand to greet him, and then turned around and walked in front. Because Zhang Jun was inconvenient, he deliberately slowed down. Seeing that he was staring at the soldiers standing on both sides just now, he explained: "These are the twenty young soldiers carefully selected from the two thousand young soldiers.

Originally, according to the emperor and all the great masters, they were not skilled in the team, and the bow and horses, etc., but I intended to bring them to experience it, so I chose these. Although they were so neat, they were all newcomers like me. Meeting veterans like General Zhang would be a joke."

Zhang Jun had previously asked to see Duke Bao Zhu Hui and Miao Kui were both blocked, and the command power of the troops under his command was almost taken away. At this time, Xu Xun, a favorite minister of the emperor, treated him so politely. He was moved, but he could not help but think deeply about the reason. So when faced with the words "Female Erics" on the battlefield, he immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Xu is so serious, and the defeated general is not worthy of courage."

"General Zhang was wrong.

"When Xu Xun saw Zhang Jun looking at him in shock, he said calmly, "General Zhang's words reminded me of a story in the past. According to legend, in ancient times, there was a country in an era of storm, and there were anti-flags everywhere. As a result, a general was ordered to suppress the rebellion and was defeated repeatedly. He didn't know how many defeats he suffered. But he had to write a memorial to defeat the battle.

He had honestly played the four words "multiple battles and repeated defeats", but the next staff member made a slight change, changing the repeated defeats and repeated defeats into repeated defeats. This mere difference in reverse order made the court go from furious to overjoy. General Zhang might understand the twists and turns?"

Although Zhang Jun was a general in command of the army, he had also read books. He chewed it again and again at this time, and felt that the four words "repeated defeats" brought out a kind of indomitable spirit. He nodded immediately: "I really didn't expect that the mere change was completely different in meaning."

"It is said that the general has suffered numerous defeats in his life. The most miserable time was almost forced to commit suicide by throwing himself into the water, but he finally came over. Not only did he recover all the lost land, but he could still end up in the end." Speaking of this, Xu Xun couldn't help but remember Zeng Guofan, a person who had been hacked by countless people and praised by countless people, and he stopped for a moment. "I said this because General Zhang wanted General Zhang to know that the defeated general is very brave! He would get up wherever he fell!"

Since Zhang Yong knew the purpose of Xu Xun's idea of ​​Zhang Jun, he would not miss the great opportunity of these slogans. He immediately interrupted and said, "So, if General Zhang has any summary of the previous battle, today you might as well say it. Whether it is Lord Xu or our family, they will report it for you. If there are any people available below, you might as well list them one by one. Lord Xu and our family will definitely use it before they can use it, so they will not let them suffer the unjust grievances because of the defeat...

These two people have such great ambitions and such confident means!

At this moment, Zhang Jun finally realized it suddenly. However, no matter how emotional Zhu Hui didn't like him, he had old grudges with Miao Kui. This was his biggest weakness now. After thinking about it, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "I have been in Xuanfu for many years and have many elite soldiers and generals under my command. Can Lord Xu and Eunuch Zhang really protect them?"

"That's natural!" Xu Xun answered these four words firmly, and then added, "We are waiting to enjoy peace in the rear, how can we make the soldiers bleeding, sweat and cry in front?"

This is very common in later generations, but at this moment, he heard it in Zhang Jun's ears. Compared with the powerful people in the capital who had always been condescending to the military, he had to feel a deep throbbing. Therefore, as soon as he entered Xu Xun's spacious barracks, he immediately bowed and said, "I will see Lord Xu today, and I just realized what natural temperament is. Although Zhang Jun is not talented, he does have many brave and resourceful people under his command. I hope he can recommend it to Lord Xu!"

Zhang Jun stayed for a whole hour, and in the end he even spent dinner in the forefront of the government army. Xu Xun called An Daniu and other military academies to serve him. Although they admitted their mistakes, they were still unruly officers who saw that the veteran general was polite and enthusiastic to Xu Xun, so their earlier dissatisfaction was naturally thrown to Java. When Zhang Jun was leaving, he warned everything to follow Xu Xun's orders one by one, An Daniu nodded vigorously and agreed.

"Elderly generals, we have no other extravagance, just hope that the court can be more justified to you."

Zhang Jun was afraid that An Daniu would not have any control over his mouth, so he shouted sternly: "Shut up, if you talk nonsense, be careful, I will immediately grab you back to the military law to deal with it!" After snatching the person, he saw that Xu Xun did not think it was offended, so he snorted coldly, "If you say you still remember me, the veteran general, and do your best to serve Xu Jiaren. If you get me meritorious, I will naturally have a gleam on my face! If you dare to disobey, if you don't tell me about it, I will not spare you!"

"Yes, veteran, please look at it!"

Seeing Zhang Jun dragging the wound and walking out of the barracks, his back was desolate, Xu Xun suddenly said, "The old horse is lying on Yang, and his ambition is thousands of miles away. General Zhang is at home to recover from his injuries. There will be good news soon!"

Although An Daniu didn't know a lot of words, he didn't understand what this old Ji Fu Yang meant, but he still knew that it was a praising him. He felt a little bit of affection for the baby officer beside him for a while. Therefore, after Zhang Jun left, Xu Xun turned around and reported a series of names to him, causing him to immediately call the account to discuss matters. He left without saying a word.

When Zhang Jun and An Daniu went there one after another, Zhang Yongxiao said he wanted to go back and write a letter to Zhu Houzhao, and returned to the room first. Xu Xun called Xu Yanche to Qi Jiliang and Qian Yu back to the house. After sitting down, he ordered Xu Yanche to go to see the officials of the Dingguo Duke's Mansion in Xuanfu tomorrow, etc., to ask about the details of the previous defeat, and then ordered Qi Jiliang. After the two left, he looked at Qian Ning and said, "Qian Ning, do you know why I want to bring you with me this time?"

Qian Ning did not attend the meeting at Baoyue Pavilion today, but only heard about the conflict. But tonight, Zhang Jun came, but he always accompanied him. When he heard Xu Xun’s question at this time, he quickly raised his mind and said, “I know, I want to promote Beizhi!”

"Good words!" Xu Xun nodded in praise, and then said, "You are extremely brave and skilled in archery and horses. You can only stay in the capital with such martial arts. At most, you can only be in front of the emperor without real military achievements. After all, you can't show it. Go and pick thirty cavalry and jump to Wanquan Right Acropolis to find out the inside story of the war that day. Even if it is heard, you can't let go. Then find a place there, and I will take people over soon!"

"Yes!" Qian Ning was excited and quickly left after giving the ceremony.

When everyone left, only he was left, Xu Xun sat down with a long breath. The double tui was already numb, sour and swelling. He rode over hundreds of miles a day, even if it was sixty or eighty miles a day, but he could not get down anywhere at all, which was enough for him to ride back and forth between the city and the city at most every day. When he arrived, he encountered such an emergency and was busy until now, he naturally became even more tired. However, he was able to hold such a group of people under Zhu Hui and Miao Kui's nose for a while, and finally he gained nothing.

However, Zhang Jun's previous lessons are still the lessons. Even if he is so successful, he cannot withstand a defeat. This is the fate of the general! The whole situation in the late Qing Dynasty in the world was broken, and Zeng Guofan's ability to fight to the end was due to the times.

The Ming Dynasty now only judges heroes by success or failure. Since he has come, he cannot go back in shame!!!
