Most of the courtiers advised the court not to use swords and soldiers, and only needed to send troops to Huang Baichuan and Wang Huailie to Caizhou Jiedu.

The vast majority of people feel that Yizhou Cheng Xisi's soldiers and horses are only a few thousand, and their strength is weak, so they can't make any climate, so there is no need to make a fuss.

Li Xun suggested that the imperial court should send some troops and horses, so as to show the attitude of the imperial court and its determination to quell the rebellion, and it can also play a positive and inspiring role in the local festival envoys who participated in it.

Li Xun's suggestion is still too few people to support it, and Zhao Xun also feels that if the imperial court does not use soldiers and horses, it will not cost money, just issue a holy decree and hand it over to the local festival envoy to solve the trouble, which is the best.

So in the end, Zhao Xun did not ignore Li Xun's suggestion, but chose the advice of most of the ministers, and immediately issued an edict, ordering Huang Baichuan, the envoy of Caizhou Jiedu, and Wang Huailie, the envoy of Chuzhou Jiedu, to immediately send troops to Yizhou to quell the rebellion.

Li Xun suggested that the imperial court also send troops to fight, hoping that the control of the counterinsurgency would be in the hands of the imperial court, which would definitely be beneficial to the imperial court, of course, Zhao Xun had his own thoughts and concerns, and it was understandable that he didn't want to make so much trouble, so Li Xun didn't insist on anything in this matter.

Interestingly, the people sent by Xiao Lezi to chase Li Zhong chased for a day and a night, and they were almost to Li Zhong's hometown, but they still didn't see anyone, there was no way, they couldn't find anyone, they would definitely be punished if they went back, so they could only wait in Li Zhong's hometown, and this wait was another two days, until noon on the fourth day, Li Zhong returned to his hometown slowly.

It turned out that Li Zhong was going to visit an old friend, so he didn't take the official road, but took some detours, took the small road to return to his hometown, and perfectly staggered with the people who came to chase him in the palace.

Li Zhong returned to his hometown, and before he entered the house, he learned the news of the rebellion of Cheng Xihei in Yizhou from the mouths of the guards in the palace.

There is a reason why Li Zhong is so anxious, his hometown is Qizhou, Cheng Xisi rebelled, if the imperial court sent a large army to quell the rebellion, there are two best roads, one is to take Qizhou, and the other is more than 200 miles away from Qizhou Zhaoxian, where the official road road leads directly to the Jiangnan region, Li Zhong came all the way, there was no movement and news, then there was only one possibility, Cheng Xisi's rebellion, the court did not plan to send troops, this is exactly what Li Zhong was most worried about, so Li Zhong would be so eager to return to Fengjing, anxious, not delayed for a moment.

Li Zhong only took one day and one night to rush back to Fengjing, and he went to the palace immediately to find Zhao Xun despite his fatigue.

Walking on the way to the palace, Li Zhong happened to meet He Tao, the head of the military department, and even pulled him back, and rushed to see Zhao Xun while asking about the situation on Cheng Xihe's side.

The direction of the entire battle situation is almost the same as Li Zhong's guess, what should happen has happened.

The imperial court was not only hesitant but also careless and arrogant about Cheng Xihe's rebellion.

Five full days have passed, and the imperial court has done two things for Cheng Xisi's rebellion, first, to summon the world and denounce Cheng Xihe's great rebellion and rebellion, and second, to order Huang Baichuan and Wang Huailie, the envoy of Caizhou Jiedu, to send troops to quell the rebellion.

After that, the court didn't even make any moves, as if this matter had just passed, what an understatement, sitting at home and waiting for good things to come?

Li Zhong shook his head and sighed deeply, for Zhao Xun there are only two words, naïve and stupid.

Ming Zheng Palace.

Zhao Xun was discussing political affairs with Li Xun, Qian Mingdu, Xie Shiyuan, Wang Gaozhi, Liu Zhi and others.

Zhao Xun's expression was a little unpleasant.

After getting Zhao Xun's edict, when even if he sent troops to Yizhou to quell the rebellion, and there were war reports every day, reporting all kinds of good news, but now five days have passed, and Cheng Xihei's rebellion has not only not been quelled, but its scale and momentum are getting bigger and bigger, and it is faintly irrepressible.

"Your Majesty."

Li Zhong hurriedly walked into the main hall.

Everyone's eyes looked at it, and when Zhao Xun saw Li Zhong, his face suddenly had a look of joy, and he got up and said, "Zuo Xiang, you are finally back." ”

Li Zhong bowed and saluted, and then asked loudly: "Your Majesty, how is the war in Yizhou?" ”

"This is the front-line briefing that has just been sent back, you can see for yourself."

Zhao Xun handed the briefing in his hand to Xiao Lezi, who trotted to Li Zhong with the briefing and handed him the briefing.

Li Zhong took the briefing and looked at it carefully, and after reading it, he suddenly sighed deeply: "Your Majesty, Cheng Xihei rebelled, why didn't the imperial court send troops to levy it?" ”

The joy on Zhao Xun's face slowly receded, and Li Zhong's words were almost questioning himself.

"In Yizhou, where Cheng Xihei is located, there are not many soldiers and horses, and the emperor ordered Caizhou Jiedu to make Huang Baichuan and Chuzhou Jiedu to make Wang Huailie send troops to quell the rebellion, which is enough, there is no need for the imperial court to send troops at all, and materials and manpower are wasted in vain."

Qian Mingdu hurriedly explained.

"Stupid."

Li Zhong said coldly: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, the major feudal towns, just like businessmen doing business, look at the benefits and interests, not what is loyal and patriotic, Cheng Xihei does not have many soldiers and horses, just about 5,000 people, but Yizhou is a strong city, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to capture this city, if you don't kill him 120,000 people, it is impossible to do it, such a big loss, Huang Baichuan and Wang Huailie, how can they do such a stupid thing? ”

Qian Mingdu opened his mouth and had the heart to refute, but looking at Li Zhong's angry expression, afraid of his might, he shrank his neck and didn't dare to speak.

Li Zhong raised the briefing note in his hand, and said angrily: "Huang Baichuan and Wang Huailie have reported many times, discussing their own merits, in my opinion, it is all nonsense, if they make a little contribution, Cheng Xisi will not be able to get out of Yizhou at all, and the two of them will simply disobey the yang and yin for the imperial court, damn it!" ”

Li Xun looked at Li Zhong's distressed expression, and at this moment he also regretted it very much, regretting that he did not insist on his opinion at the beginning, if the imperial court could quickly send troops to Yizhou to quell the rebellion, I am afraid that things would be much easier.

Li Xun has already figured it out, since Cheng Xisi dared to rebel openly, it was obviously not impulsive, he must have thought of follow-up plans and actions, and he has a backhand.

The development of the situation now seems to be very simple, Yizhou is a rich land, Cheng Xisi with the wealth of the entire family as a backer, recruiting troops and buying horses, plus the homeless forces in Huaibei and Huainan to attach, in Huang Baichuan and Wang Huailie, the two of them are in disobedience to the yin and yin, and they are unwilling to contribute, Cheng Xisi only expanded the army to a full 50,000 people in just three or four days, and the situation was not very serious, but now it is rapidly deteriorating.

One of the earliest pieces of intelligence information came from two hours ago, and the intelligence showed that the troops of Huang Baichuan and Wang Huailie were still 120 miles away from Yizhou, standing still.
