The development of the war in Tianweiguan can be said to have made everyone in Kyushu fall out of sight.

The Northern Song Dynasty changed its previous silence, raised troops to the south, and defeated the Qi army twice at Yumen Pass and Dump Yu, just when the world thought that they would conquer Tianwei Pass as easily as before, the Song army suffered a surprise defeat.

Yang Zhiyong galloped thousands of miles to help, and the Grandmaster Zhao Wenqi's shot, the Song army not only lost nearly half, but also lost Chen Xi and Liu Xiaochen, two generals.

And just when people thought that the Northern Song Dynasty's southern expedition would end here, things took a turn for the better half a month later.

The Qi army was defeated, less than thirty percent of the 100,000 troops remained, the Tianwei Pass was lost, and the general Yang Zhiyong died in the chaos.

But there's more to it than that.

In the eyes of the world, the military god of the Northern Song Dynasty, who had been dead for more than 20 years, suddenly appeared out of nowhere with a son, who took over as the commander of the Song army at the moment when Chen Xi fell, and turned defeat into victory under the condition of absolute disadvantage and conquered Tianwei Pass.

What's more, there was suddenly an extra martial arts master in the Song army's array, and it was rumored that Yang Zhiyong died at the hands of this infamous grandmaster.

At this time, in the palace of King Qi, all the ministers who had learned the news were full of sorrow, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

"The generals of the Song army will come to my Tianlan City in the near future." In the center of the main hall, Lu Shuqin, who was sitting on the throne, held his forehead with one hand, and his voice was full of exhaustion, "What is the best plan for you Aiqing?" ”

The ministers in the audience, you look at me, I look at you, but no one dares to speak out after all.

"Since the capture of Yuyu by the Northern Song Dynasty, news came from the northwest for the first time yesterday. Qizhou was defeated and retreated under the attack of Zhao Qingquan in the Northern Song Dynasty, and even the capital Qi'an was lost, and Liangzhou also erected an anti-flag and directly took refuge in Yongguo. ”

"After the general withdrew, the Yongguo took advantage of the situation to send troops to Jiangzhou, Yang Tianyuan was finally young and vigorous, and he was ambushed and defeated, and the defenders of Jiangzhou were wiped out by him in a battle, and it was only a matter of time before they fell."

"The rebellion in the two southern states is also intensifying, the hussar general is gone, and there is no news of the 50,000 Duwei soldiers." Lu Shuqin closed his eyes in some pain, "Right now, I am in Daqi, except for Tianlan, there is only one Huaizhou left." As for the army, counting the more than 20,000 sergeants brought back by the Che Cavalry General from Tianwei Pass, plus the defenders in Tianlan and Huaizhou, there are only 50,000. ”

The audience became quieter.

"Daqi, you're going to die."

Lu Shuqin leaned back in his chair, raised his head and looked at the top of the hall with blank eyes.

He also used to think about sweeping Yong to destroy the Song Dynasty and complete the great cause of unifying Kyushu, but less than a month has passed, and the Great Qi, which occupies seven states and has 400,000 armor, has already fallen to this point.

Why is it the way it is?

It's because he doesn't care about the people's power and wantonly conquers, again

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Or is it light and virtuous, and promotes close ministers, or is it...

He is just a waste, and he is not worthy of being the king of a country at all.

"Your Majesty."

Seeing Lu Shuqin like this, Che Tian gritted his teeth, walked out of the crowd, and said loudly: "The king doesn't have to be discouraged, although the situation is urgent, there may not be no room for maneuver..."

"Huh."

Before Che Tian finished speaking, a middle-aged general behind him sneered, and then said, "Che Tian, you are so thick-skinned. I am in such a desperate situation, it can be said that it is all thanks to you, you are good, not only are you embarrassed to come back, but now you are still shy and say something is still okay, it is really ridiculous! ”

These words made Che Tian's face red and white for a while, and he replied with a strong self-support: "Yin Botao, you don't want to spew blood here!" ”

"Am I wrong?"

Yin Botao also walked out of the queue, he stepped forward, and looked at Che Tian's eyes full of disdain, "Since you led the army, you have first defeated Yumen Pass, and then lost your wealth, not to mention repeated defeats, and even let nearly 100,000 Great Qi soldiers fold in your hands." After the death of the general, you guarded the Tianwei Pass, and you fled back in disgrace before you could not hold it for half a day. Daqi can have this situation, and your car can be said to be 'indispensable'! ”

After that, Yin Botao took a deep look at Lu Shuqin on the seat, and said loudly: "Please ask the king to pull the criminal minister Che Tian out of the noon gate and behead the public, first, to comfort those fallen soldiers, and second, to boost the morale of the soldiers in the city." At that time, when the Song army comes, it can also have the strength to fight! ”

"The minister seconded the proposal."

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers in the palace actually agreed, they were not used to seeing Che Tian for a long time, and they did not write a book to impeach him on weekdays. Helplessly, Lu Shuqin seems to have a preference for Che Tian, no matter what they say, Lu Shuqin is also in and out of the left ear, and he doesn't take it seriously at all.

But the current situation is different, after several defeats in major wars, Daqi has almost reached the point of exhaustion. And as Yin Botao said, all this Che Tian cannot escape the blame. Even in order to appease the grievances of the sergeants, Lu Shuqin should have executed Che Tian to set an example.

"Your Majesty!"

Hearing that voice seconded, Che Tian hurriedly knelt down, slammed his head on the ground, and pleaded: "The ministers are indeed responsible for the defeat of the army several times, but even the generals died at the hands of the Song army, and the defeat of the ministers at the hands of the Song army is understandable." For the sake of the minister's many years of fighting for the Great Qi, please ask the king to be gracious..."

"Years of fighting? Phew! ”

Yin Botao slammed to the ground again, and said in a deep voice: "Please put Che Tian to death on the king!" ”

All the ministers shouted together: "Please put Che Tian to death to the king!" ”

Che Tian pressed his body tightly to the ground and didn't dare to move.

"Enough!"

Lu Shuqin suddenly burst into a shout, "What, you can't force the palace!" He got up from his seat, furious

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

shouted: "If you don't agree, will you still rise up like the rebels in the two southern states!" ”

The ministers in the palace said resignedly: "The ministers don't dare. ”

"This Song army is about to fight under this Tianlan City, you don't think about how to deal with it, but fight here infighting, what kind of system!"

"It is precisely because of this that the king should execute the criminal minister Che Tian."

Yin Botao raised his head and said with a straight face: "Che Tian is not dead, and the grievances of the people are hard to eliminate!" ”

"Good, good, good!" Lu Shuqin nodded again and again, then raised his hand and shouted, "Someone! ”

Che Tian, who was still kneeling on the ground, suddenly trembled.

"Pull Yin Botao down and cut it down!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and Yin Botao exclaimed with a puzzled face: "Your Majesty, what is the crime of the ministers." ”

"Didn't you say that the grievances of the people are difficult to eliminate, and the loneliness starts with you to eliminate them one by one."

Lu Shuqin sneered: "Dead people naturally don't have grievances. ”

"The king can't!"

This Yin Botao's popularity is very good, and when he heard that the king wanted to kill him, many people knelt down to intercede for him. And Yin Botao was already stunned, and was firmly grasped by the guards who rushed into the palace, he couldn't believe it, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, just for a minister who has committed a crime of misleading the country, you want to put the minister to death?" ”

"Not only you, but all those who have grievances in their hearts must be asked." Lu Shuqin raised his hand and pointed at the ministers in the audience, "Do you have any grievances?" ”

“……”

The audience suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Lu Shuqin snorted coldly, and after turning around and sitting down, he saw that the two sergeants who were holding Yin Botao were still staying in place, and couldn't help but shout: "What are you doing here?" Why, is it difficult to do it alone? ”

"Your Majesty."

Zhang Hanwen, who had always remained silent, suddenly walked to the center and said slowly: "As the king said, it is indeed wrong to fight at this juncture. But in any case, General Yin will not be guilty of death, and please think twice about it. ”

"Please think twice."

Lu Shuqin was silent for a long time, and said coldly: "The capital crime can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, Yin Botao's official position will be stripped away, demoted to a concubine, and all family wealth will be confiscated!" ”

He waved his hand impatiently at the two sergeants, "Don't drag him down yet." ”

The two of them finally did not dare to disobey the king's order, and immediately pulled the depressed Yin Botao out of the palace.

After they had gone, the temple fell silent again.

Just because of the public impeachment of an unpardonable Che Tian, Yin Botao almost died, not to mention, and was finally stripped of his official position, which made the ministers feel a little chilled for a while.

"The matter of the general of the chariot and cavalry, Hugh has to mention it again." Looking at the group of silent courtiers in the audience, Lu Shuqin said coldly: "Whoever lives and who dies is alone has the final say." Remember, Lone is the master of this great Qi! ”
