Chapter 213: The Decisive Battle of Tianliu
"Report, border emergency!"
"Report, border emergency!"
One in front and one in the back, two feathers sent a message, 800 miles rushed through the city gate, and the horses' hooves galloped through the main streets of Hongcheng and came to the palace gate. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yue Ming, who was about to retire from the dynasty, suddenly sat up straight and tired, looking forward to the battle reports from far and near, two battle reports!
Stumbling in, two dusty messengers came in, kneeling on their knees, and presented the battle report of the border with their hands in unison.
Same color, same cover, same wax seal!
Emperor Yue Wen looked at the two battle reports in the hands of the little eunuch in front of him, hesitated, and grabbed one casually and opened it, "Hahahahahaha!" Suddenly stood up, the laughing voice was full of spirit, "Southern Xinjiang has won a big victory, and Pingcheng has fallen!" ”
"Long live my emperor!"
"God bless the Moon Dynasty!"
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
As Yueming's laughter spread, the ministers above the Golden Palace all knelt down, expressing their devotion to Yueming's policy of marching south to alleviate the famine disaster caused by drought and flood in China.
When he first proposed this policy, there were different voices within the DPRK, some in favor and some in doubt, but more often they were opposed. After all, under the two years of the catastrophe, the army still needs to prepare military supplies, if it wins, it is good, at least the grain of southern Xinjiang can be used to supplement the tight clothing and food in the north!
But what if it fails?
The people are waiting for the imperial court to open a warehouse for grain relief, but the imperial court still has to take the grain and grass for disaster relief to fight, which is the root of the chaotic country! In an instant, we will face the serious situation of the rebellion of the people everywhere in the Moon Dynasty!
The courtiers are still steady, and they are all against this matter, so the pressure on Emperor Yuewen is very great.
But this moment proves that his original insistence is right! He doesn't have to carry the infamy of the faint monarch for a lifetime, how can he not breathe a sigh of relief? How can you not laugh and laugh!
Looking at the surrender on the ground, Yueming wanted to raise a glass and get drunk at the moment, and suddenly remembered that there was a battle report!
The wrinkles on his face stretched, and he sat down with a smile in his eyes, picked up the second battle report and opened it, and then silently sat on the spot.
On the Golden Palace, the civil and military officials who were kneeling down had been for a quarter of an hour, but the one sitting on the top of the head had forgotten about them, and he didn't even say a word of 'flat body'!
A few people in the middle and back rows secretly raised their heads, glanced upwards twice, and immediately lowered their heads and muttered in their hearts, Your Majesty, what's wrong? This gloomy face is about to drip ink! Isn't it a great victory in southern Xinjiang?
Only the people in front of him kept bowing their heads and being silent, and no one looked up, everyone knew that if the victory in southern Xinjiang could make His Majesty so happy, then what could make him so out of shape must be the battle of the north!
The silence lasted for an hour, and only then did a mournful voice come from above, "Spread my will, and Xue An, the general who stayed behind in the sky, led the army to return to Tianliu immediately with all the grain and grass, and attacked Xianyun City!" ”
"Zhao Ningzhen ordered 30,000 Gyeonggi Beida camps to rush to Tianliu and attack the Guancheng City!"
"With Yue Jinhong's Yue family army, rush to Tianliu and attack Bishui City!"
Fight against Loulan?
Above the Golden Palace, all the ministers were shocked, how could this be decided so suddenly? Having just occupied southern Xinjiang, shouldn't we first stabilize the situation, take over the government affairs of southern Xinjiang, and transfer things from the south to the north to ease the pressure of food shortage within the Yue Dynasty? As for Loulan, the duel is a matter of time, but there is no hurry!
Is it really good to send troops to attack in a hurry?
And Xue Anhao said that he has been fighting outside, and as long as he has ordered all the grain and grass, he can lead the troops to go. But this Zhao Ningzhen is a garrison in Gyeonggi, he took away 30,000 people from the Northern Camp at once, isn't this Hongcheng unguarded? Also, that Yue Jinhong, who suddenly appeared last year, and that Yue Jiajun are only a few thousand people in total, right? Will you be able to attack Blue Water City?
Blue Water City?
Suddenly, some information exploded in many people's minds, the north of Bishui City is the northern boundary, they are busy fighting the southern Xinjiang for food, and Loulan is also using troops in the north......
His Majesty's face suddenly sank like water, could it be said that the North was defeated?
Eyes swept over the straight Xiao Xiangye who was standing intentionally or unintentionally, this person who didn't have too many expressions from beginning to end, couldn't it be General Xiao who had an accident again?
made an order, Yue Ming stared at Xiao Xiangye for a while, and after a few words, he still couldn't say the news of Xiao Yunqian's death in battle, and sighed in his heart, even if he didn't say it, the news of the death at the border pass would still arrive soon!
An hour later, Xiao Mansion received a report from the border pass and a holy decree from Emperor Yuewen and the Queen Mother at the same time.
Xiao Yunqian, the general of the expedition to the north, died in the north!
Emperor Yuewen specially issued an order to crown him as the King of Anning!
The Empress Dowager Yue took pity on King Anning for having no children, and specially appointed the Xiao family to choose a son to inherit the prince and give the palace!
However, neither Xiao Xiangye nor Mrs. Xiao came out to meet the holy decree, and it is said that both of them fainted when they heard the report of the border battle. The old eunuch politely put down the holy decree, and did not dare to ask for a reward, so he quickly retreated from the mansion.
In Xiao's room in the backyard, the couple, who had fainted, were supporting each other, looking at the man in black kneeling on the ground.
"Take off the deerskin!"
The lord of Wanrong suddenly burst into tears, and he had to see it with his own eyes before he could believe it.
The man in black silently raised his hand, unwrapped the deerskin attached to his face, and looked at the old woman in front of him with cold brown eyes, his rough throat was dry, "Mother! ”
"No, you're not!"
Xiao Xiangye hugged his old wife who couldn't stand because of her sudden mania, and rubbed her back with her palms to soothe, "Wanrong!" “
How could his own son not recognize him?
The kid in front of him is obviously the third child of his brother's family, although their two cousins have looked similar since childhood, there are still differences, how can they be confused just because they burned their faces?
Her son's eyes are always warm and pure, where can this boy who has been thinking deeply since he was a child compare?
"He's not, he's not my son!"
The lord of Wanrong was extremely sad, Xiao San came back alive and pretended to be Yun Qian, she naturally guessed that the Xiao San who died in the civil strife in the north was her son!
"Why?"
"Why did you change your identity?"
She didn't understand why her son suddenly decided to pretend to be a junior and ascend the throne?
"Auntie, it's all my fault!" Yue Jinsheng knew that in fact, he couldn't hide the couple when he came back this time, but he promised his cousin that he would do his filial piety as a son in the future, and pursed his chapped lips, "On that day, Qiong'er's mother and son were trapped in Shanshan......"
The matter of changing identities was indeed brought up by him, although Yun Qian's purpose was not simple, and he forced himself to burn his face before he was willing! But today, it is superfluous to say anything, so why bother the two old men?
"It's for that demon again! I told him not to get close to that demon girl, but he just wouldn't listen! The big county lord of Wanrong was full of anger, his brown eyes were red, as if he was about to burst into flames, he clenched his molars tightly and spit out a few words, "In the end, I lost my life for her!" ”
It turned out that this person on the ground was the one who was close to that woman, and she had sighed with her husband that the will of heaven was unstoppable, and they were brought together. However, her son had actually died for that woman, and hatred instantly hit his chest, "It's all her!" It's all her fault! I want her to die, I want to pay for my son's life! ”
"Auntie, it wasn't Qiong'er who killed my cousin......" The cold voice stopped the madness from spreading, and his brown eyes looked at Xiao Xiangye, "Isn't it, uncle?" ”
Looking at his wife's eyes, 'You already knew', Old Master Xiao sighed deeply, nodded and admitted sadly, "With or without that girl, my son will die!" ”
Holding the body of the old wife and trying to support the weight of the two, he looked at the old wife's face full of sadness guiltily, "It's all my fault, the good apprentice I taught!" ”
It's him!!!!
Old Madam Xiao suddenly closed her eyes and stopped looking at her husband, she couldn't complain about him, but she had to ask in person, why?
