The fifth episode of Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty

The rebels were approaching, but Liu Chengyou was still hesitating about the selection of the counterinsurgency. In fact, at this time, there is a very suitable candidate, this person is the general Guo Wei. Guo Wei was originally Liu Zhiyuan's confidant general, who had followed Liu Zhiyuan in the southern expedition to the north and made great achievements, which can be described as a long-standing battlefield and prestige, and at this time he was in charge of the Privy Council, and it was within his duty to suppress the rebellion. However, Liu Chengyou is not completely stupid, and he is always wary of Guo Wei.

Guo Wei held heavy troops in his hands and held the military and political power of the Later Han Dynasty, which made the little emperor feel like a tiger on his side, and it was difficult to sleep and eat. The law of the chaotic world made Liu Chengyou deeply realize that whoever holds the military power can stomp others under his feet. Liu Chengyou had suffered from powerlessness since he ascended the throne, and the inheritance left to him by his father was in the hands of his heavy subjects, and it was uncomfortable to be completely hollowed out.

Traitors come and go, opportunities and challenges coexist. Liu Chengyou wanted to take this opportunity to cultivate his own cronies, and then he would be able to hold great power and achieve the result of killing two birds with one stone. Therefore, he knew that Guo Wei was the best candidate for counterinsurgency. But it is still necessary to give up the near and seek the far, and abandon it.

At present, Liu Chengyou is planning to limit the military power of military generals, which to some extent shows his immaturity, and the ideal he yearns for is a perfect ending, but the world is unpredictable, who can guarantee that there will be no mistakes. If he loses the battle, he will regret it.

Liu Chengyou picked left and right, and found three unknown people to lead the army. After a few months, there are few records. Liu Chengyou realized the seriousness of the situation and thought of Guo Wei's benefits in desperation. Although he was reluctant, he had to turn to Guo Wei for help.

Guo Wei was experienced and knew that the little emperor did not dare to reuse his own thoughts, but he did not have time to think about it. For the country and mountains that have been hit with one hand, he will not stand idly by when it is in danger.

At this time, Liu Chengyou really had no choice but to pin all his hopes on Guo Wei alone, and handed over the army of the Later Han to Guo Wei without reservation. Guo Wei led the army to go out, after all, it was the expectation of the people, in addition to the regular army of the Later Han Dynasty, there were many strong men to defect, and Zhao Kuangyin was one of them. Zhao Kuangyin's father once had a relationship with Guo Wei, and with this relationship, Zhao Kuangyin found a position as a pro-soldier by Guo Wei's side.
