Chapter 319: Preparing for War
It was as if they were waiting for news from the Northern Expeditionary Army, and after the fight broke out over there, news about the Japanese invaders came one after another. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
“…… It is said that the Wang family did not fight the Japanese invaders ruthlessly, but drove them from Fujian to Nanzhili, causing the Japanese to fight more and more. Nowadays, there are small groups of Japanese robbers who have arrived in Songjiang, Chongming and other places, often going ashore to harass the people. Whenever officers and soldiers went to encircle and suppress them, the Japanese invaders scattered in a hurry, and there was no trace of them in the vast sea. ”
After Meng Ye finished speaking, he wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead. There were not many regular troops available along the coast of Nanzhili, and all the 30,000 people left by Liang Zan were used to defend Jinling. Seeing this situation, neither he nor Xu Sheng dared to divide their troops to go to the coast to suppress the Japanese invaders.
Xuan Hui pondered for a moment and ordered: "Go and ask Wang Yiqian to come and speak!" ”
Meng Ye said: "Before the prince left, he had already talked to Wang Yiqian. He promised to persuade his father and brother to disperse the Japanese and stay away from Jinling. Looking at the current situation, I'm afraid that it will be useless to call him here. ”
Xuan Hui smiled: "Although he can't persuade his father and brother, he has other uses. ”
Meng Ye couldn't help but feel a little disapproving. Because Xuanhui let Wang Yu go privately, he was very distrustful of her, and always thought that she was a child messing around.
Xu Sheng understands that this princess who is loved by Pei Min is not an idle person.
Several people sat quietly drinking tea, waiting for Wang Yiqian's arrival.
"The grass people say hello to the princess, and say hello to the two adults!" After a meal, the maid led Wang Yiqian into the main house where Xuanhui lived.
Xuan Hui smiled: "It turns out that Wang Gongzi has no official body!" I thought your father would give you a future. ”
Wang Yiqian smiled: "The princess said she was laughing! No matter how I say it, my father is also a member of the imperial court, a dragon and tiger general of Emperor Xuanzong. Although I am not talented, I am also waiting to serve the prince for a few years, and I will be rewarded by the prince with an official to do. How can you casually donate a future! ”
Xuanhui took a sip of the tea bowl and said idly: "If the third brother rewards or not, it depends on how much effort Wang Gongzi makes." ”
Wang Yiqian hurriedly knelt down and said, "The prince and princess are driven, Wang must do his best!" ”
Xuanhui didn't say anything to let him get up, but just asked straight to the point: "Then tell me, what have you Wang family been doing recently?" Your eldest brother took 20,000 or 30,000 people to chase me and hide at sea, what kind of trick did you play? ”
Wang Yiqian heard her ask this, Xuan Hui was a little woman less than twenty years old, and she was not flustered in her heart, and secretly turned her head to look at Meng Ye and Xu Sheng who were sitting on the side. Seeing that there was no expression on both of his faces, Wang Yiqian pondered for a moment before saying, "Princess, since you know that it is my eldest brother who leads the troops, you should know that this matter has nothing to do with me. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Xuanhui asked, staring into his eyes.
Wang Yiqian smiled: "Don't talk about it! That is to say, my eldest brother did this, and I don't know about it, and it has nothing to do with me. The princess asked me if I had found the wrong person. ”
Xu Sheng said leisurely on the side: "Wang Gongzi should learn the rules from others." ”
Xuanhui smiled and waved his hand, not disagreeing. "The Japanese have arrived in Songjiang, and your eldest brother is following behind. Do you think they are playing a game of cat and mouse, or do they want to join forces and come to Jinling to rob their homes? ”
When Wang Yiqian heard this, his heart was shocked, and countless thoughts instantly turned in his mind.
Is this Xuanhui's casual guess, or is Jinling's side ready to fight? What's more, has his strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain been recognized? Is Pei Minzhong, who has no trace, hiding in the Guogong Mansion, so as to lure the snake out of the hole and catch him off guard?
The more Wang Yiqian thought about it, the more scared he became, and he felt a chill in his back for a while, maybe Pei Minzhong was already standing behind him......
He jerked his head back, only to see that the curtain on the door of the main room had not moved, and that no one had come in or gone out.
He turned his head and found that Xuan Hui was smiling at him, so he smiled wryly: "I just felt that there was wind, and I thought that my sister didn't put the curtain ...... properly."
Xuan Hui smiled: "It seems that Wang Gongzi is a little unwell, so I won't keep you." Since you said it had nothing to do with you, I believed it. She paused for a moment and said meaningfully: "Wang Gongzi, don't live up to my trust in you......"
Wang Yiqian hurriedly said: "How dare you, how dare you!" He got up from the ground, gave Xuanhui another look, and then slowly retreated.
After Wang Yiqian left, Meng Ye was about to speak, Xuanhui gave Yuan Xiang a look, and two guards flashed in.
"You go and keep an eye on Wang Yiqian, he will definitely make a move in the past two days, and maybe he will also think of escaping. First, we can't let him run. Second, find out who he is in contact with. If necessary, just do it, just leave him alone! ”
The two guards said yes in unison, turned and went out.
Meng Ye said: "There are also people in the Jinling Mansion who are staring at Wang Yiqian, it is better for the princess to leave a few more guards here......"
Xuanhui said with a smile: "The people in the government are okay to do detectives, but these people are good at it." ”
Seeing that she insisted on this, Meng Ye nodded and stopped talking.
"Does General Xu see something?" Xuan Hui asked with a smile.
"Wang Yiqian has a ghost in his heart," Xu Sheng said in a deep voice, "This time the Wang family sent troops, but I am afraid that the suppression of bandits is fake, and the sneak attack on Jinling is real." ”
Meng Ye hurriedly said: "Then I'll send a message to tell the prince immediately!" ”
Xuan Hui shook his head and said, "If the enemy chooses to do it at this moment, he must have calculated that the third brother can't move away." Even if we send the letter immediately, the third brother may not have time to withdraw when he receives the letter. What's more, there will be Liu Guangsheng chasing after him. ”
Meng Ye hurriedly said: "But Jinling can't be lost!" ”
Xuanhui Zhengse said: "I know that Jinling can't be lost, and I will leave my words here today, Jinling won't be lost!" ”
Xuanhui in the previous life was able to hold Jinling City, and so can I in this life!
"Jinling City, where 30,000 people defend the city with high walls, is more than enough. We will last for three or five months at most, and the north will surely be able to breathe a sigh of relief and come out to help. ”
Meng Ye rubbed his hands anxiously, he admitted that Xuanhui's analysis was very reasonable, but it was really risky not to spread it to the north.
"Lord Meng, before the enemy besieges the city, please raise more food. Although it may be that the siege is the work in front of us, how much can be hoarded," Xuan Hui smiled and said: "I don't want Jinling to become Suiyang, you and I have become Zhang Xun." ”
When Meng Ye heard this, he felt a little relieved, how much success does this princess have, it is not nonsense. It's just that the story of Zhang patrolling the city and eating people should not become a proverb......
Xuanhui said to Xu Sheng again: "Please ask General Xu to send two thousand cavalry to the coast of Songjiang, just fight, not seek victory or defeat!" It seems that this battle must be fought, but before we begin, we must first find out whether the enemy is 20,000 or 30,000, or 50,000 or 60,000! ”
"You mean the ...... of the Woko"
"It may be the Wang family!"
The wind moved and said
