085: Arguments
After arranging the affairs and deployment of Chu Jing, Lou Yueqing did not go all the way north directly, but as soon as he left Beijing, he often went to the northwest direction, rushed to Yunan Pass, which was connected with the Wei State, and traveled day and night, and rested for a few hours on the way, and when he arrived at Yunan Pass, it was already two days later, and at this time, the news of Emperor Wei's death was already known to the world.
She didn't bring many people with her, except for knowing that she was going to the battlefield, Lou Yichen asked Mo Li, who took care of Lin Peiyun, to return to her side and follow her, the remaining dozen or so were the elite of the secret guards of the Regent Palace, and all of them were masters.
Yunan Pass is the first pass in the west of Chu State, Yunan Pass in the past, is the boundary of Wei State, now Yunan Pass, garrisoned 80,000 soldiers, the rest of the troops are stationed in the west of the city checkpoints, however, it has been fully counted, the original west border area was stationed in the area of 300,000 troops, plus the later war after the new nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses, now the west garrison general 500,000, then, in addition to some fixed garrison troops, about 300,000 troops can be dispatched, as long as an order, can be assembled in two days to Yunan Pass.
Lou Yueqing is not the first time to come to Yunan Pass, when Chu Wei fought a war, when she came here, she had been to Yunan Pass, but I didn't expect that after many years, she came here again, and it was also a case when the two countries were at war, but the last time I came here, it was to see the excitement, but this time I came here for the Chu State.
She came to Yunanguan this time in secret, and did not notify King Shen and others, so after arriving at Yunanguan, she did not immediately go to see King Shen and others, but found a place to stay, rested for one night, and early the next morning, she sent someone to invite Xue Zhen, who happened to be in Yunanguan.
Lou Yueqing was having breakfast, Xue Zhen was reporting the situation here on the side, and after Lou Yueqing finished eating slowly, Xue Zhen, who wanted to know the situation, finished speaking, she took Xue Zhen to the government of Yunan Pass, according to Xue Zhen, at this time, King Shen and a group of generals stationed in the western border were discussing the strategy of defeating Wei.
Because it was not easy to resist the Wei army and keep the territory of Chu from being invaded, now that Wei is in mourning, he is too busy to take care of himself, and he will not dare to provoke Chu again, this war is over, and the generals here are overjoyed, but before the joy has passed, they received an order to reorganize their troops and horses to counterattack Wei, and these generals are all opposed, for which they are arguing.
According to Xue Zhen, the controversy began yesterday and continues today, originally those people did not want to fight, the battlefield was dangerous, although it was a good opportunity to make meritorious service, but it was also necessary to risk their lives to fight, it is better to hold the military power to garrison one side, as long as they can ensure that the land is not lost, that side can sit back and relax.
What's more, the person who gave the order was Lou Yueqing, a woman who seemed to them to be a chicken Sichen.
Because of Xue Zhen's presence, no one dared to stop him when he entered the Yunan Guanfu Office, and there was no need to report it.
Lou Yueqing was only wearing a moon-white dress, no fat powder, her black hair was lightly pulled, and a white hosta was fixed in her hair, which looked very simple, and this hosta was the one that Rong Zhi gave her at the beginning.
Dressed like this, naturally no one can see who she is, so everyone who sees her is looking sideways, very puzzled, although everyone knows that Xue Zhen is the confidant of His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, but he is also the second-rank general of the imperial court who holds the military power, during this time he guarded the western border with Prince Shen, and his prestige in the army is not small, but now he is following behind her, his face is respectful, and he does not dare to trespass.
But this woman is dressed so ordinary, although she looks extraordinary, but this dress really makes people can't see who she is, after all, no one would have thought that the regent princess sitting in the capital would appear here.
Lou Yueqing didn't seem to notice the puzzled and inquiring eyes of the guards on the road, and followed the direction of Xue Zhen's words without changing her face, turned a few corridors, and finally arrived at the council hall of the mansion.
didn't let the soldiers at the door report, Lou Yueqing was about to go in directly, but as soon as she approached the door, she suddenly stopped and stopped still.
The voice inside came faintly.
What I wanted to come out of the most was a rough and rude questioning voice: "Lord Shen, please forgive the last general for being stupid, now even if the Wei State is mourned, more than 400,000 troops are still stationed 30 miles away and have not withdrawn, and we can only mobilize 300,000 troops at most now, you want to counterattack the Wei State, I am afraid that the troops are insufficient, if the division is unfavorable, who will be responsible? Do you want the regent princess to be responsible for a woman's family?"
The last sentence had a hint of contempt.
Lou Yueqing, who was outside the door, squinted her eyes when she heard this irreverent sarcasm, and then her face was calm, but it was Xue Zhen, her face changed suddenly, and she was about to push the door in, but Lou Yueqing stopped him.
Xue Zhen looked at Lou Yueqing with a faint anger on his face, obviously, what he was angry about was this person's disrespect for Lou Yueqing.
Lou Yueqing shook her head, signaling him to be restless, and then listened to the movement inside.
As soon as he finished saying the previous words, another slightly younger voice continued: " That's right, Lord, although the princess regent is smart, she is just a woman, or a woman who is weak and sick and has been raised in the boudoir all the year round, I'm afraid she doesn't even know what the battlefield looks like, just because of the great funeral of the Wei State, I want to take the opportunity to counterattack and see the current situation of the Chu State, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is facing off with Beili in the north, what we should do now is to stabilize the situation here, so that His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has no worries, not to mention, this is just the princess's order, not His Royal Highness's will, marching to war, how can a woman who doesn't know anything dictate……”
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a loud shout: "Presumptuous!"
There was a sudden silence inside.
After the silence, a faintly angry voice sounded in a deep voice: "This king invited you to come today, it is to discuss the strategy of attacking Wei, not to attack the regent princess here, if you are so disrespectful, don't blame this king for military law!"
This is the voice of King Shen, which is extremely majestic and makes people dare not despise it.
As soon as such a sharp tone came out, there was silence inside, and I thought that these people were still afraid of King Shen.
At this time, a deep voice said with a little respect: "Lord, they are not disrespectful to the princess, but it is not a trivial matter to transfer troops to attack Wei, and now His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is confronting Beili, at this time, we should let His Royal Highness have no worries, if you rush to attack Wei, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the war situation on His Royal Highness the Regent's side, not to mention ,......"
The voice paused, and there was no follow-up.
King Shen asked in a deep voice, "What's more?"
The voice just now sounded in a low voice again: "Lord Wang, about the battle of Longyin Pass, Ning Guogong was rumored to be a traitor to the enemy, which has seriously shaken the morale of the army, and now this matter has not yet been explained, the princess regent ordered the rectification of the soldiers and horses to fight Wei, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction in the army, if the war is lost, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain, and please think twice!"
This is the truth, everyone knows that although the princess regent has great power, she was born in the Ningguo Mansion, and now there is such a thing in the Ningguo Mansion, the princess regent should avoid suspicion and no longer care about these things, but this princess not only does not avoid suspicion, but also does not shy away from making decisions on military affairs, and will dispatch troops to counterattack Wei State when she gives an order.
No, once the counteroffensive fails, it is these generals who will bear the consequences.
King Shen had not yet been born, and a sneer sounded: "Cowardice before fighting, that is the work of cowards, Wei State has repeatedly caused trouble and provoked, if you don't give them a lesson, how can my Chu State establish the world? What's more, now that the Wei State is in mourning, the Prince of Wei and King Jing are competing for the throne, the court situation will inevitably be turbulent, and the army will be uneasy, this time is a good opportunity to counterattack, I think the princess's decision-making is excellent, this time, it must be done once and for all, and they will have a long memory, what, is it possible that you want to suppress my Great Chu again in another three or five years?"
It's the truth.
Five years ago, the state of Wei raised troops to press the border, taking advantage of the exhaustion of the army after the war between the state of Chu and southern Xinjiang to take advantage of the fire to rob, the state of Chu at that time, because the first emperor abandoned government affairs, the national strength weakened, after the destruction of southern Xinjiang, did not slow down, the state of Wei raised troops to suppress the border, and then the regent and the prince of Ning joined forces to lead the troops to resist, the state of Wei was defeated, only to hand over the letter of surrender, sent a princess and countless treasures to turn the war into a jade silk, now only five years later, the state of Wei will make a comeback again, if this time do not give Wei a lesson, it is difficult to guarantee that after five years, the state of Wei will not come again。
There will always be a price to pay for blood, so that those who are ambitious will remember it for a long time!
