254 The overwhelmed court!

Wu Wang Xiang Bi was leading an army of 240,000 and quickly sent troops to Wanling City, the capital of Danyang County.

His son Xiang Xian had already taken 10,000 soldiers and horses on his own, and as the vanguard of the army, he couldn't wait to kill Danyang County.

"Newspaper, my lord! Receiving the flying pigeon book, the king of Huainan raised troops... Failed. ”

A general rushed to King Wu's car and said hurriedly.

"What?"

King Wu was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse.

The army of Wu on his side has just been dispatched, and it has not yet reached Wanling City.

Huainan King Xiang Anshi was defeated?

Although the strength of the king of Huainan is weak, he still has 70,000 soldiers and horses. Even if you kill a pig, you can't kill so many people for a while.

Moreover, there was no imperial army around Huainan Kingdom.

Who is so powerful, and defeated the king of Huainan in the blink of an eye?!

"Huainan Xiangguo Que Quan, coaxed the king of Huainan, stole the military power as the prime minister, and put the king of Huainan under house arrest! The king of Huainan failed to raise an army and was unable to participate in this rebellion. ”

The general hurriedly explained.

When Wu Wang Xiang Bi heard this, he was stunned for a while, and then he came back to his senses and sneered: "This An Shi boasts of having great ambitions, but he is a sparrow talent. The dignified princes actually broke their halberds in the hands of their own men!

Regardless of him, a small Huainan country has no strength. The King of Chu, the King of Qi, the King of Zhao, the King of Jinan, the King of Jiaoxi, the King of Jiaodong, what is the situation on their side? ”

"King, the king of Chu has raised his troops smoothly, and he is leading more than 100,000 troops to the south."

"Okay, let's speed up the march. After attacking Wanling City, the army can wait for the kings to come and meet under Jinling City. ”

King Wu was in high spirits.

Without a prince king competing for the world, he didn't have any worries, but was even more happy.

....

Jinling City.

Palace.

Golden Luang Hall.

Emperor Xiang Yanran, Taiwei Li Rong, Prime Minister Kong Hanyou, Imperial Historian Wang Su, and civil and military ministers gathered in the main hall, facing a huge military map, discussing the military priorities, how to deploy troops, and prepare to crusade against the rebellious princes and kings.

The Great Chu Dynasty had 500,000 central troops and 500,000 local troops, all of which were standing troops, not temporary recruits of peasants and miscellaneous soldiers.

It's just that these million armies are scattered all over the place, and they are not concentrated together in peacetime.

Grit your teeth, squeeze it, and the forces of the crusade against the rebellion will be able to be scraped together.

Kong Hanyou said: "Your Majesty, King Wu claims to have a rebellion of 250,000 troops, but the main force is only 50,000 elite soldiers, and the rest are patchwork miscellaneous soldiers. The king of Chu raised an army of 100,000 troops, with about 30,000 elite soldiers. The rest of the kings of Zhao and Qi each had twenty or thirty thousand elite soldiers. In total, there are about 150,000 elite soldiers and more than 450,000 miscellaneous soldiers.

The imperial court only needed to draw 150,000 elite soldiers and 300,000 miscellaneous soldiers. With the strength of Lord Taiwei, he was able to defeat the rebels from all walks of life, and it was enough to quell the rebellion. ”

"Hmm. Taiwei Li Rong, I ordered you to be the general, and led the 36 generals of the imperial court to draw elite troops from all over the country to fight against the rebellion, and set foot on the princes... ”

Emperor Xiang Yanran was about to make Li Rong a general.

"Report ——! Shuo Fang flying pigeon passed the book, 100,000 urgent war report, the Xiongnu king's military minister Shan Yu, personally led 300,000 cavalry, attacked Shuo Fang, and invaded our border in a big way! ”

At this time, a general ran to the main hall and said urgently.

The emperor was taken aback.

When the ministers heard this, they all gasped.

The Xiongnu raised 300,000 troops, which was menacing, and it was clearly a posture of a border war.

"Your Majesty, the Huns are ready to move at the border to respond to the rebellion of the princes.

If Da Chu ignores it and sends troops to quell the rebellion, they will take advantage of the situation to invade.

If the 300,000 elites of the Great Chu border army defended the Xiongnu with heavy troops, they would not be able to return to the aid and quell the rebellion of the princes. Which is more important, the emperor should have a decision! ”

Li Rong said in a deep voice.

"The border pass can not be chaotic, once the more than 30 Xiongnu troops break through Shuofang, along the Daijun, Taiyuan all the way south, soon be able to attack Chang'an, and even threaten Luoyang.

The border pass can't be guarded, countless people have fled, the Central Plains is eroded, and Dachu is resting!

King Ping, it seems that this task of rebellion cannot be handed over to you. You still have to go to the border pass to guard it in person, in case the 300,000 Huns army attacks and breaks through the pass. This important task belongs to you, and others are not at ease! ”

Xiang Yanran was silent for a long time, weighing the weight and sighing.

Which prince of the Great Chu Dynasty is the world, it is the world of the Xiang family, and it is the Great Chu Dynasty.

But if Chang'an is broken by the Huns, this Great Chu world will become a barbarian.

"Yes!"

Tai Lieutenant Li Rong gritted his teeth and received the order.

"Report, urgent military situation! Dawan, the country of the Western Regions, kill my envoys, gather the remaining six small countries, wave 50,000 troops, attack Yumen Pass, and try to capture Dunhuang! They seem to have colluded with the Xiongnu and mutiny together. ”

"Hmph, the small countries in the Western Regions also dare to offend! Su He, the former general, immediately rushed to the border pass to counterattack Dawan. ”

"Yes, the minister!"

"Report, emergency military situation in southern Xinjiang. Minyue rebelled, raised troops to attack Yelang Kingdom, and tried to annex our vassal state. ”

"Hmph, these are small! Is this a robbery while the fire is burning? Gongsun He, the general of the left, immediately went to southern Xinjiang to organize a counterinsurgency. ”

The emperor was furious.

"Report, Xianbei, Wuheng, 30,000 cavalry, harassing my northeastern frontier Yunzhong County!"

"General Wei Song An, you immediately go to Yunzhong County and organize troops to defend. The imperial court does not have any extra troops to send to you, so you mobilize troops and horses locally. ”

"Yes!"

Song Ang took the order.

The military information from all over the country was sent to the Jinluan Hall like snowflakes.

The princes and kings must have colluded with the Huns, barbarians, etc., to send troops together.

Emperor Xiang Yanran felt anxious and had to send experienced famous generals in the court to various places to quell the rebellion and suppress it.

The border troops were difficult to mobilize for a while, and they were even a little embarrassed, let alone support the Jinling Imperial Capital.

"Report ——! King Wu's 250,000 army did not come to the imperial capital, but it went straight to Wanling City, the capital of Danyang County! ”

Urgent military intelligence came again.

"Danyang County guards Xie Anran, and the capital Wanling is guarded. He only has 10,000 local troops, and even if he is urgently recruited, it is estimated that there are tens of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers. How to compete with the hundreds of thousands of troops of King Wu? ”

"The imperial court, do you want to transfer troops from Jinling and send troops to rescue Wanling?"

"To save Wanling, you must transfer at least 30,000 to 50,000 elite soldiers before you can fight! There are not many troops in Jinling City! ”

The ministers looked at each other.

Wanling City is the largest city barrier in the south of Jinling City. However, the army is weak, tens of thousands of soldiers, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist the army of King Wu.

Once Wanling is lost, the south will be wide open, and there will be no slightest obstruction.

Jinling City will become an isolated city.

However, the generals in the court were all sent out to defend and suppress all parties, and there was no one general to guard for a while.

Who can be the commander of the anti-Wu army?!

"Report ——! The king of Chu led an army of 100,000 directly south, preparing to cross the river.

In addition, the kings of Jinan, Jiaoxi, and Jiaodong raised 300,000 troops to attack the cities around the Huai River, trying to cut off the connection between the imperial court and the counties in the Central Plains, and completely blockading the imperial capital. ”

The ministers were stunned.

The 100,000 army of the king of Chu actually went directly south, wanted to cross the river, and formed an alliance with the king of Wu.

Once the two strongest rebel armies of King Wu and King Chu converge under Jinling City, this force will be enough to attack the capital of Jinling.

The imperial capital is in danger!

Tai Lieutenant Li Rong went to meet the Xiongnu army, and the generals rushed to meet the barbarians in various parts of the frontier. However, who else could the imperial court send to fight the princes?
