Chapter 572: Raising Troops, Qi State's Response
The next morning, because Xiao Rui had already discussed with His Majesty about the attack on the Qi Kingdom, he directly ordered the military department and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to dispatch troops and order the champion Hou of the front line to attack on all fronts!
The civil and military officials were not surprised, but had a sense of relaxation that had finally begun. After recuperating for so long, it's time to attack.
In this way, Qin Cha led the tiger talisman to Fengtian City, and the grain, grass and supplies of the household department also began to be mobilized.
In this attack, the champion Hou is still the general, Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji are the left and right Huwei generals, and the soldiers take the imperial capital of Qi in three steps, and vow not to give up if they do not break the imperial capital!
When the champion of Fengtian City saw Qin Cha and checked the tiger talisman, he immediately summoned the scouts and summoned all the legions with the military order!
And just like that, the armies of all over the country began to move and gathered as fast as they could!
I was finally able to fight Qi Guo, and I held it back for a long time! The soldiers were all gearing up and thanking the Qi State for the merits of the heads.
The news of the Xia army's assembly was quickly sent to the imperial capital of Qi by Qi spies, and after Emperor Qi learned about it, he leaned on the dragon chair and couldn't speak for a long time.
Immediately after summoning the important ministers to discuss, the subordinates served Zhonghai Yuntian, Zhongshu ordered Wei Nanzheng, Shangshu ordered Guo Yu, and the military department Shangshu and Hubu Shangshu and others.
After everyone entered the palace, as soon as Emperor Qi told the news that the Xia army had assembled a large army, there was silence in the Golden Palace.
After worrying about it for so long, Xia Jun finally made a move!
Two years ago, the Xia army was fierce and unstoppable, hitting Fengtian City, and now the Great Xia has enough rest and recuperation, and the soldiers are even more eager to try, on the other hand, the Qi army is no longer the Qi army of two years ago!
"How many sons do I have to fight the Xia army?" Emperor Qi looked at the important ministers and didn't speak, he was the first to speak.
Shang Shu ordered Guo Yu to say: "Your Majesty, 400,000 troops are resisting the Yuan army in the north, and 150,000 troops are encircling and suppressing the rebels who revolted. Only other soldiers and horses can be mobilized, and if you add the city guard army outside the imperial capital, the number of troops that can be mobilized is barely 400,000. ”
"With only 400,000 sons, how can you defeat the 700,000 male soldiers of the Xia Kingdom?" Emperor Qi muttered to himself.
Shang Shu Ling Guo Yu glanced at Shang Shu of the Ministry of War, and saw that he was wiping a cold sweat, so he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything.
Who knows, Zuo Xiang Hai Yuntian asked directly: "Lord Guo, the city guard army outside the imperial capital is 100,000 heavy, minus these 100,000, the number of troops that can be mobilized is 300,000, is the 300,000 troops in your mouth a theoretical force, or a real force?" ”
Guo Yu was speechless for an instant, and then said: "It's the number of soldiers who receive military salaries!" ”
When Emperor Xia heard this, he almost had high blood pressure.
There are 300,000 soldiers who receive military salaries, but there are not necessarily so many of them, and the situation of empty salaries is too obvious. In his previous life, the Ming Dynasty was known as an army of millions, and in the end, he really started a war and found a large number of moths that ate empty salaries!
Domestic and external troubles are more likely to lead to corruption, and it is common for people to eat empty salaries. Therefore, Guo Yu said that it would be good to be able to gather 400,000 troops, and finally to gather 300,000 combatable troops.
"Weichen deserves death." The military department Shangshu was already so frightened that he knelt down.
Shangshu made Guo Yu bow down.
Emperor Qi really wanted to push out the military department Shangshu and the imperial history of the imperial history platform to cut it down, but now was not the time to kill the generals, he looked at Hai Yuntian and asked, "Lord Hai, do you have a good plan?" ”
Hai Yuntian is the identity of the left minister, leading the subordinates, and the elders of the two dynasties, facing the hopeful gaze of Emperor Qi, Hai Yuntian, as an important minister to protect the country, should set an example and propose a solution, who knows that he said very simply: "Weichen has no good plan!" ”
The Zhongshu on the side made Wei Nanzheng immediately shout: "Lord Hai, look at your tone, it seems that you are still arrogant if you don't have a good plan!" Is this the attitude that a courtier should have? ”
Hai Yuntian glanced at him and asked, "Listening to Lord Wei's tone, it seems that he has a good plan in his chest, why don't you say it!" ”
Emperor Qi's eyes immediately fell on Wei Nanzheng, and he hurriedly asked, "Wei Aiqing, hurry up!" ”
Wei Nanzheng said: "Your Majesty, Weichen suggested that some of the soldiers and horses from the north to resist the Yuan army be transferred back, the northern region has been ten rooms and nine empty, and the people have fled south, plus the Yuan army's whereabouts are strange and fast, it can only be defended and it is difficult to encircle and suppress, there is really no need to send 400,000 troops there." Secondly, the imperial court can issue a recruitment order to recruit those soldiers and horses who revolted, all of them are Qi people, in the face of the enemy's attack, they should be willing to unanimously open to the outside world, of course, and reward them with enough benefits. ”
Emperor Qi hesitated: "It's no problem to transfer some of the soldiers and horses from the north back, but to recruit rebels... Will this group of thieves agree to recruit An? ”
Now there are five rebel leaders in the top row of Qi countries, who have occupied a state and bought refugees to resist the Qi court. Their combined men numbered more than 200,000. If all of them are recruited, it is indeed a large force, and if they are gathered together, they should be able to gather 700,000 troops.
Wei Nanzheng said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Weichen knows these anti-thief leaders well, and they are definitely willing to recruit peace!" ”
Emperor Qi looked at Hai Yuntian and asked, "Zuo Xiang, what do you think?" ”
Hai Yuntian smiled sarcastically and said, "Wei Chen thinks that Lord Wei's idea is really whimsical, and the dispatch of the northern army is to let the Yuan army continue to plunder in the south. Zhao'an anti-thieves is to lure wolves into the house, not to mention, most of the anti-thieves are refugees, even the Qi army does not dare to resist, they can only take sneak attacks and use the terrain to fight, you let these untrained refugees to fight against the Xia army, do you think it is possible? When the time comes, the defeat will be like a mountain, which will greatly affect the morale of the army. ”
Wei Nanzheng's face was red with sarcasm, and he said angrily: "Lord Hai, you can't do this, you can't do that, it's possible to face the invasion of the Xia Kingdom, just sit and wait to be killed, what are your intentions?" ”
"This official is sincere, this is a matter of facts." Hai Yuntian shouted.
"Alright, stop arguing!" Emperor Qi slapped the table angrily, and then shouted.
The ministers have banned it. 101 Chinese Net
Emperor Qi sighed, the current situation of the Qi State had already made him haggard, and at this moment he understood the difficulty of being an emperor, and it was not a dream to make the country strong.
Looking at the several important ministers in the palace, Emperor Qi understood that he could only count on himself in this situation, because even if the Great Qi was destroyed, they would be safe and sound for these important ministers, and didn't it explain everything when the Zhao State was destroyed?
Case...
"Guo Shangshu, just do what Wei Aiqing wants, immediately transfer 200,000 troops from the north, and Wei Aiqing personally drafts the will to recruit An! Fight the summer with all your might! Emperor Qi said solemnly.
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.
Subsequently, Wei Nanzheng asked again: "Your Majesty, who will the general who will lead the troops send this time?" ”
"Is there a candidate for Wei Aiqing?" Qi Huang asked.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Wei Nanzheng's mouth, and he said randomly: "Back to Your Majesty, this time against the Xia army, Wei Chen suggests appointing a respected old minister, which can improve the morale and morale of the soldiers!" So Wechen recommends Prince He! ”
As soon as these words came out, Hai Yuntian said angrily: "Wei Nanzheng, don't talk nonsense!" ”
Wei Nanzheng sneered: "Lord Hai, is it wrong for this king to recommend?" Prince He is the prince of Qi, shouldn't he come forward when the country is in danger? ”
Hai Yuntian looked at Emperor Qi and said, "Your Majesty, don't let Prince He be in charge of this military matter!" ”
Emperor Qi raised his eyebrows, how could he forget the emperor's uncle, Prince He. He was once the generalissimo of the Great Qi, although he has not led troops for decades, but his prestige is still there. What's more, he is also the father-in-law of Emperor Xia and the maternal grandfather of the prince of Xia Kingdom, so it is interesting to let their relatives kill each other.
Of course, in order to prevent Prince He from rebelling, his children and grandchildren have to stay in the imperial capital as hostages!
"Don't panic, Lord Hai, I'll think about it seriously." Qi Huang smiled.
Hai Yuntian sighed, when he saw His Majesty's tone, he knew that His Majesty had decided.
It is because he and Prince He are friends that he clearly understands Prince He's character and some of his secrets! Don't let Prince He preside over the military affairs, not for Prince He's safety, but for the sake of Daqi! Once Prince He is allowed to lead the troops and horses, Daqi will be closer to destruction!
"Hey..."
Hai Yuntian sighed in his heart, and his heart was sad.
Now that Daqi has no one to turn the tide!
......
What's the fastest?
It's not Cao Cao, it's bad news.
Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Just when the Emperor of Qi was discussing how to resist the Xia army, the news that the Xia army was going to attack the Qi State had spread all over the imperial capital.
Prince He, Ye Wendao, and Ye Qianying naturally also heard the news, they were very concerned about the situation in the Xia Kingdom, and knew that the Xia Emperor and the crown prince were promoting new crops, and once the new crops were almost promoted, they had to do something against the country.
"This time, Emperor Qi doesn't have the strength to resist." Ye Qianying asked.
Prince He and Ye Wendao immediately laughed, and Ye Wendao said: "Wei Nanzheng will definitely give His Majesty a bad idea, at least he will suggest that His Majesty transfer the northern forces back." This person has already taken refuge in the Khan of the Yuan State, and the Khan of the Yuan State must have given him a promise. From the very beginning, he talked about the cooperation between Qi and Yuan, let the Yuan army take advantage of the way, and then repeatedly hindered the military affairs in the north, and the hiding was really deep enough, if we hadn't found out the clues, we wouldn't have believed it at all. ”
Prince He stroked his beard and smiled: "So it is not unreasonable that the Qi country has fallen into such a tragic situation, since the last emperor of Qi, he has planted the root of the bane, and he deserves to reuse the small one!" ”
"Father, I have a hunch that this Wei Nanzheng will target us." Ye Wendao said.
Prince He snorted: "It's okay, wait and see." By the way, what about Su Zhen? ”
"I'm in the palace." Ye Qianying replied.
Prince He said: "Wait for her to come back and let her stop running around, this time is more critical, be careful." ”
"Father rest assured, daughter understands." Ye Qianying said with a smile.
At this time, Bai Su was really in the harem, chatting with Concubine Hui Yuan Yuan.
The two did not intersect originally, but after Concubine Hui was captured by Xiao Rui and came back, she and Bai Suzhen intersected.
Bai Suzhen is the goddaughter of Prince He, and it is not difficult to enter the harem.
At the same time, Bai Suzhen has known her thoughts since she became acquainted with Concubine Hui, and it turned out that she was thinking about someone in her heart.
That guy not only took people away, but also took away hearts. Now the man has returned, but the heart has forgotten to return.
Pity the infatuated lovers in the world, they will mistake all sentient beings.
