Although it was not yet evening, it was already equivalent to night when it was dark, and the main hall of the entire Phoenix Palace Luan Palace was brightly lit, and all the courtiers who could arrive had arrived. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even Mi Huang, at her request, set up a place for her in the main hall dedicated to her to sit and listen.

On the huge long table ten zhang long, Ling Yin Ziyan sat in the center at the front, and then Mi Huang and Ruo Ao Ziyan sat on his left and right hands as princesses and horses, and then went down to the left and right Yin, the right disciples, the four divisions, each Yin, and all the officials of the Sigong Mansion and even Sun Hou, these generals were also required to attend the hearing, ready to assist at any time.

In the center of the huge long table was a huge map of water meridians two zhang long, marking every river that flowed through the Chu State, and the river basins that were now severely affected in red.

Cheng Jia reported the flood situation received by the various flood control and monitoring teams he had arranged a long time ago.

"In the past two or three days, it has rained heavily throughout my country. The water level of the Dajianghuai River has exceeded the water level of the police boundary in previous years, and there is a continuous rising trend, and the counties below have sent people to ask for help, so they called all the courtiers and the Sigong Mansion and the generals to participate in this emergency court meeting overnight.

Although we have already arranged for flood control this year than a month ago, the flood can not be stopped by manpower, and the counties below can only organize monitoring and cannot carry out disaster relief......

Now all the counties are asking Lord Ling Yin to send troops to support, so that they can go down to the counties below to help the local government soldiers organize rescue work, and minimize the losses after the floods in our Chu country this year as soon as possible, and transfer the people to other unaffected areas for resettlement......

If possible, even choose a suitable place to drain and drain the rising rivers after the disaster, or build new dams and embankments, after all, there should be no war in our Chu State this year, and we can start preparing for water conservancy. ”

Cheng Jia only said a few things, but disaster relief, post-disaster reconstruction, and post-disaster water conservancy construction are all major events.

The ministers who gathered the heads of the entire Chu State exchanged in whispers.

Li Lao touched his gray beard, took a sip of ginseng tea, refreshed himself, and did not speak.

Gong Yi was sad, he felt that he was really about to become a priest. At the end of last year, the disaster relief was not effective, and the plan to repair the embankment with money this year has not yet been implemented, so the flood is still flooding up and down the Chu country.

And Gong Yinian, who was sitting next to him, listened carefully, completely unaware of his thoughts at this time, holding a brush in his chubby hand and rustling on the bamboo slips, recording every affected area that Cheng Jia said, ready to find a way to remedy it.

Although Cheng Jia's words were over for almost a pillar of incense, there was an exchange of exchanges below, but no one put forward a plan or expressed opinions.

Ruo Ao Ziyan listened and watched silently, slowly tapping his fingers on the table, and finally raised his eyebrows and asked, "How many people do you need, how much food?" ”

The army is numbered, and the granaries are numbered.

"50,000 recruits, and 200,000 loads of food. ”

Cheng Jia reported a number that his people counted in rough steps.

Mi Huang sat silently and listened to them at the long table, and started a tug of war on this number, Cheng Jia wanted 50,000, if Ao Ziyan did not agree, he could only give him a maximum of 20,000.

"There are no more, you must know that it is precisely because my Chu State has once again sent a big flood, if the Jin State or the surrounding Qin State and Ba State take the opportunity to invade, and our army is transferred, there will be a bigger problem. My Chu State is now in sight, if it is robbed by the Jin State, the momentum of the army will definitely fall, and it will be even more difficult to think of a big war like Yongguo to take advantage of the situation. Now that the 100,000 new troops have been trained, 20,000 people, if you agree, you can take them away to the counties below. ”

Mi Huang knew that the 20,000 troops of the flood disaster relief were thrown in, which was tantamount to a drop in the bucket, at most a few nearby places could be saved, and now it was raining heavily and the army rushed to the towns below, and many cities had become swampy places when they arrived.

And if Ao Ziyan gave it to the recruit infantry.

It's not much faster.

There are some changes in the mentality of Mihuang.

With more cooperation with Cheng Jia, she knew that Cheng Jia was not one of those courtiers who spoke empty words, so she also had objections to Ruo Ao Ziyan's arrangement, after all, there were nearly 300,000 troops stationed in the camp under the mountain, plus the private army of Ruo Ao's four departments, and her grandfather Sun Hou still had 200,000 garrisons along the border of Wancheng against the Jin State, Qin State, Zheng State, Cai State and other vassal states, which was closer to the Huai River, and after the flood season, if the troops were transferred from there was obviously faster than from Yingdu, and as we all know, the upstream is the key to water control.

However, she also knew that if she easily mobilized the border garrison, she would likely be carefully discovered by the surrounding enemy countries and taken advantage of by others.

There was nothing wrong with the opinions of both men.

What is wrong is just that the land of Chu is large and thin, natural disasters are continuous, and manpower is limited.

As Cheng Jia said, the best way is to take advantage of the non-war year to step up the solution of internal troubles, but she remembers that Ruo Ao Ziyan also has this idea, so she can't understand what his real motive is for refusing to transfer people at this time.

After all, how could he be sure that the Jin Kingdom was coming?

So nervous about these forces in their hands.

Cheng Jia frowned, thought for a long time, and then indifferently looked at each courtier on the long table, and asked softly, "Are there any other adults who are willing to be with Jia and the Sigong Mansion?"

Without an army, someone has to support them spiritually.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to support it alone.

Such a big stall.

Gong Yi was the first to express his support, and this was originally within the scope of his duties, and now it is also remedied.

After the rescue incident in the daytime, Sun Shuao and Cheng Jia talked in detail, especially when he used to garrison the Huai River for many years, he was deeply touched by the Huai River's big floods every year, and the people were bored, and after thinking for a long time, he raised his hand and said, "I am also together, my Sun family's Iron Guards can send 30,000 troops, and follow Cheng Youtu to rescue together, and the Huai River was also the place where our Iron Guards were stationed, and I am familiar with it." ”

Mi Huang hesitated a little when he heard this, and said, "Captain Sun, but you are going to get married soon, and you can turn around in a while." ”

Uncle Sun Ao touched his big head when he heard this, and grinned, "Don't worry, cousin, Xuan'er will definitely understand." ”

Sun Hou sat beside him, Pu Fan's big hand patted his shoulder, and laughed out loud, "Okay, my good son of the Sun family should be like this, he should defend his family and defend the country in life, and die on the battlefield! Go ahead, grandpa supports you, presumably the third princess is also a reasonable person, and will definitely support you." ”

"Yes, Grandpa!"

Sun Shuao nodded vigorously.

Hearing this, Gong Nian also raised his hand and shouted again and again, "I, and me, please take me, I want to go to the field to investigate the disaster situation in various places, and our Ministry of Labor must find a plan to control the water this year." ”

Gongyi frowned slightly, and then looked at his son, who was not optimistic about him since he was a child, his eyes were slightly red, and he also patted him on the shoulder, "Well, all of our divisions have gone down to the following counties, and everyone will give the divisions a clear understanding of the local situation, compile a map, and must solve the problem of flooding." ”

When all the officials of the Minister's Office heard this, they agreed.

Cheng Daxin and Chen Huang, as the main force of the Cheng family, and some court officials who were attached to the Cheng family also seconded the proposal.

Ling Yin Zi looked at the ministers who had expressed their participation, and did not express their attitude, with a serious expression, after Cheng Jia agreed, he just drank a cup of tea calmly, and then slapped the table with his big hand and agreed, "Okay, then let's arrange it like this, and quickly organize disaster relief in various places as soon as possible, so as to avoid turmoil." ”

Since everyone has no objection, the next step is to make other deployments, especially the deployment of the Beijing Division, since Sun Hou has sent out 30,000 private troops, if there is no reason for the Ao clan to contribute no one.

Ling Yin Zi said, "Yingdu is the top priority, no matter what, it can't affect the safety of Yingdu, Chengyoutu must also step up precautions, if necessary, you can apply to my Ruo Ao clan at any time to transfer the private army of Ruo Ao's six divisions and the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to cooperate with you to protect the safety of the Jing Division!"

"Okay, thank you Ling Yin for your generosity. ”

Cheng Jia praised without hesitation.

If Ao Ziyan heard the words and did not object again, the importance of Yingdu would be self-evident.

Even if all the counties below are flooded, this place cannot be flooded.

"Then the court meeting is over, everyone hurry up, my Chu State is on this matter this year. Ling Yin Zi took over the conversation, made a final summary and beating, stood up with the table, and then walked out with the other courtiers, "If there is anything else to order, just continue!"

"Yes!"

Cheng Jia bowed his head, took Sun Shuao and Sun Hou and grandson, Gong Yi and Gong Yi Nian's father and son, as well as the workers of the Sigong Mansion, as well as Cheng Daxin, Chen Huang They did not leave immediately, but chose to continue the flood relief conference.

Mi Huang glanced back at the few dozen people in the hall, and suddenly felt a dullness in his heart.

With such a big burden and only such a few people, it is more difficult than asking the Chu State to send troops.

"Let's go. Ruo Ao Ziyan turned his gaze and asked when his eyes fell on her.

"Well, nothing. ”

Mi Huang nodded and kept up with the pace of everyone, and now all the courtiers came out of the main hall with a look of great interest to visit the construction of the Phoenix Mountain Palace, and then Ruo Ao Ziyan also ordered someone to prepare a banquet.

The lights here are brilliant, the songs and dances are played in unison, the food and wine are delicious, the beauty is dancing, and the heavy rain outside does not stop, but it still cannot stop the interest of the people in the distant hall of the various courtiers, and the fun of the distant chimes penetrates the dense rain and reverberates throughout the mountains and forests.

These voices were in Mi Huang's ears, noisy, and everyone began to toast around Ruo Ao Ziyan, who sat next to Ruo Ao Ziyan and held back his impatience, and said in a low voice, "I'll go back first, it's too noisy here." ”

"Well, you can go back and rest first!"

Ruo Ao Ziyan nodded, and then ordered.

"Come on, send the princess back to the palace!"

When she passed through the main hall, she stood at the door and looked inside, inside Cheng Jia and everyone were discussing fiercely, seeing that everyone looked like they were preparing for a hundred thousand urgent battles on the battlefield, and they were so busy that they didn't even have time to eat, Mi Huang said, "Si Qin ordered the dining room to send some food to Sun Hou and them." ”

"Yes, lady. Si Qin was ordered to arrange it.
