The young soldier was very excited and held a document in his hand.
His appearance also stopped the soldiers who were about to leave.
After all, for the Marquis, apart from fighting, nothing else is a good thing.
However, seeing each other like this, everyone couldn't help but look curious.
As for Song Hongzhi, he squinted his eyes and said, "Speak."
"My Lord."
"The documents just arrived from the Cabinet."
"It is said that His Majesty has listed the Later Qin as a country that poses a threat to our Great Wei."
"And the cabinet has stated in its document that it requires you, Lord Marquis, to eliminate this threat for the court."
The more the soldier spoke, the more excited he became. He couldn't help but say, "My Lord, weren't you worried about having nothing to do? Now you're here."
As soon as these words came out, Song Hongzhi's eyes suddenly lit up. He took the document directly and after flipping through it, a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Hahaha, great! The emperor brother-in-law finally remembered me. Later Qin? It's just a small country, nothing to worry about!"
Later Qin was adjacent to Gaoyang. Before Gaoyang was destroyed, there were some frictions between the two sides. However, after the country was destroyed by Song Hongzhi, they became much more obedient.
Because Gaoyang is now the territory of Wei, and Wei is the most powerful country in the Eastern Continent.
No matter how bold the Later Qin was, it would not dare to offend the majesty of the Great Wei under such circumstances.
Of course, the Later Qin just didn't dare to cause trouble.
But it did not take the initiative to pay tribute like some other countries did.
Therefore, Song Hongzhi has been thinking about how to attack the Later Qin, but he has never had the opportunity.
Even though the Later Qin Dynasty had recently caused trouble in the Gaoyang border area, he did not take action.
As for the reason, it is actually very simple.
Although he was the Marquis of Guanjun and the Protector of Gaoyang, and held the military and political power of Gaoyang and the power to mobilize the army, since his last raid on the Keqin area of the grassland and the capture of nine Khans alive.
Wei Yunyi personally issued an edict, stating that Gaoyang would not be allowed to mobilize troops and start a war unless there was an internal rebellion in Gaoyang.
Otherwise, Song Hongzhi would not have been so quiet during this period of time.
He may have different opinions on other people's orders.
But in her eyes, the emperor's brother-in-law is a wise and benevolent monarch, the person she admires most, and the Son of Heaven, so naturally she cannot disobey.
Therefore, even when the Later Qin Dynasty caused trouble, Song Hongzhi was extremely restrained and submitted memorials to the court several times in a row, requesting the dispatch of troops.
However, these memorials fell on deaf ears and received no response.
That's why he rode horse and hunted every day.
now.
Finally received the cabinet document.
Moreover, it was the emperor's brother-in-law's idea, so Song Hongzhi was naturally happy.
He had been holding it in for too long, and now he finally had the chance to fight. He was extremely excited and couldn't wait to go to the front line.
This reaction also startled the generals nearby. They immediately took the document and took a look at it. One of them stepped forward and said, "My Lord, His Majesty and the Cabinet want us to eliminate the threat, not to start a war directly."
Everyone had followed Song Hongzhi for a long time and fully understood the character of this marquis. As long as there was an opportunity to fight, he would never let it go.
Of course, there are prerequisites for going to war. It is because there is a threat to the court and the country, not because of random war.
In the eyes of everyone, Hou Qin has indeed been a little agitated recently, but after all, it has not done anything out of the ordinary.
Furthermore, there was no written document from His Majesty or the Cabinet that explicitly stated a war, nor was there any order to mobilize troops.
So I think that he must want Gao Yang to suppress the Later Qin.
Let the other party understand that there are some things that cannot be crossed.
After all, compared with the Wei Dynasty.
The Later Qin Dynasty is indeed far behind. Just give it a little pressure. There is no need to go to war directly, right?
All the soldiers present believed that, in order to be on the safe side, they had to persuade the Marquis at this time.
However, when Song Hongzhi heard these words, he immediately shook his head: "Yes, the emperor's brother-in-law and the cabinet's intention is to eliminate the threat of Hou Qin to my Great Wei. But think about it, everyone, if I destroy Hou Qin, then there will be no threat, right?"
When these words were spoken, everyone was completely stunned. Some people even opened their mouths but didn't know how to start.
Because there is really no problem with what that sentence says.
The Later Qin Dynasty was destroyed and incorporated into the territory of the Wei Dynasty.
Is there still a threat?
"this..."
But there was another general who felt something was wrong and wanted to persuade them.
But Song Hongzhi gave up and said directly: "Let's do it this way. The cabinet document did not say that we should send troops to start a war, but it also did not say that I am not allowed to send troops."
"Everyone, we have been training for a long time since the last grassland battle. During this period, Tiandu asked for peace, Baiyue surrendered, and even the navy continued to make meritorious contributions. We have been guarding Gaoyang this whole time, but we have not had the opportunity to show our talents."
"And now, the opportunity is right before our eyes, and the hope of achieving great things is right before our eyes. Don't you all want to join me on the battlefield and defeat the enemy for our country?"
This sentence made everyone completely silent. In fact, they knew that it was Song Hongzhi himself who wanted to fight.
But when I think about it carefully, what the Marquis said is indeed right. It has been a long time since there was a war.
Moreover, the Later Qin Dynasty has indeed been a little restless recently.
If we don't take this opportunity to send troops.
In the future, it will definitely be impossible to destroy the enemy.
Immediately, everyone took a deep breath, then bowed slightly and said, "We will obey your orders!"
These words made Song Hongzhi feel extremely satisfied.
