Chapter 1 Crossing
Ten years of Qide, it is a special year for the Great Zhou, the saint in the palace has been dormant for too long since the snowy night ten years ago, and just in the spring, the 100,000 iron horsemen of the Great Zhou were ordered to go north. No one could have guessed that the battle would come so suddenly. As usual, the Great Zhou has not attacked the Golden Horde in recent years
The battle lasted until September, and the two sides won and lost each other, and the Great Zhou Iron Cavalry advanced close to the hinterland of the Golden Horde, causing considerable losses to the Golden Horde. I thought that the Great Zhou was just a retaliatory attack, but tens of thousands of iron horsemen rampaged in the north, so that the Golden Horde suddenly realized that the disaster of the country was in front of them, and people suddenly understood that this was the war that the Great Zhou had planned for several years, and the continuous grain went north, showing people the determination of the Great Zhou to completely solve the unstable factors of the Golden Horde for nearly a hundred years.
The military newspaper entered Beijing with the snow night, this is the third military newspaper of this month, the frequency is slightly higher, Wang Wei walked quickly towards the Taiji Palace, the messenger behind him followed closely, and the armor on his body had a lot of sword marks and blood stains. Apparently just off the battlefield. In front of the main hall, Wang Wei waved his hand and drove away the little eunuchs who came. Taking a slight breath, he said loudly outside the hall: "Holy Lord, urgent report from the north!" ”
"Come in." Hearing the rumor, Wang Wei hurriedly entered the hall with the messenger, the supreme ruler of the Great Zhou, Li Yuan was still in the hall to correct the folds, some surprised to look at the messenger who came in, the letter came a little fast, it was only seven days from the last one, looking at the military newspaper handed by the messenger with a piece of jade pendant, an ominous premonition came to his heart: "Submit it quickly." ”
Huang Gonggong took the battle report in the messenger's hand and forwarded it to the emperor, Li Yuan opened the war report and looked at it a few times, and threw the war report on the table suddenly, his face became very bad. I only heard Li Yuan take a few breaths, calm down his anger and said: "Spread the order Xia Lindao, Liu Ren, and Cao Lin to enter the palace." Wang Wei withdrew from the main hall to deliver the decree.
The sudden anger startled the people in the temple, but the messenger did not react, wanting to know what was written in the letter.
"I came to ask you, what is the role of the army? Do you know what the war report says? Li Yuan frowned and asked His Highness's messenger.
Xie Dong exhaled and said, "Xie Dong, the centurion of the Black Feather Army, what is written in the battle report is true. General Yang said that the matter was too big for him to draw conclusions. ”
Li Yuan listened, sighed, waved his hand and said, "You go down first, there's nothing for you here." Xie Dong listened, and slowly withdrew from the hall after saluting.
Li Yuan picked up the battle report on the table and read it again, the back of his hand with green tendons burst out, which made Huang Gonggong on the side a little worried, the saint had not been angry for a long time.
Xia Lindao and the others didn't let Li Yuan wait too long, the three of them hurriedly entered the palace, and the eunuchs standing on the side took the cloaks of the three adults and withdrew from the main hall. Li Yuan handed the battle report to Gonggong Huang and asked him to circulate it to the three adults.
Xia Lindao looked at the battle report in his hand, but after a few lines, he frowned, looked up at the saint of the throne, and then turned his head to look at the two adults Cao Liu on the side. Cao Lin and Liu Ren were a little puzzled by this action, but looking at the faces of Shengshang and Shoufu, they thought that there was a change in the front line. The battle report was not long, and after reading it, Xia Lindao handed it to Cao Lin on the side, and slowly thought about the information in the military report.
Cao Lin and Liu Ren read it almost in a cold sweat, and there was not much content, but every sentence made Cao Liu and the others feel cold.
"What do you think?" Hearing the Shengshang's inquiry, Xia Lindao thought for a while and said: "Weichen thinks that what General Yang said in the military report should be true, and the dynamics of our army are mostly confidential, especially in this battle, not many people know about the plan. Since the Golden Horde has prepared for this, I think it has received some news. ”
Li Yuan nodded, and motioned for Xia Lindao to continue, "The military report also said that there were a lot of losses in this battle, but the goal has been achieved, and there are even a lot of gains, which may have some impact on the follow-up plan, but King Zuoxian, who was hit by three arrows in his body, should also die soon, and the Golden Horde Court is afraid that there will be a lot of turmoil in the short term." But the trouble is General Lin. Xia Lindao glanced at the saint and continued: "Since General Yang has sent someone to find it, I think that as long as he does not fall into the hands of the enemy, General Lin Jiren has his own natural appearance. This last sentence is nonsense, on the battlefield, if you don't pay attention to it, you will die. But comfort is always needed, after all, General Lin Yuanlin's identity is relatively special.
In the first year of the Apocalypse, the Great Zhou unified the world's Kyushu, from the period of the Ten Kingdoms to the unification of the world, the Great Zhou Dynasty only took five years, ending the centuries-long division of Kyushu, all of which is inseparable from Emperor Taizu's sworn brother Lin Lie, after the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lin Lie was awarded the title of the Pillar of the State of Jingguo, hereditary replacement. After that, the three generations of the Lin family made a lot of contributions to the Great Zhou, and the three generations were dedicated to the north and were full of loyalty.
Lin Yuan went to the northern border nine years ago, only eleven years old, because it was the Lin family's single biography, many people were frightened at that time, Lin Yuan was forced to stay in the north with death, and after the recall was fruitless, he simply let him stay in the north, but he was not allowed to participate in the war.
"The war is changing rapidly, I am not so ignorant, and this loss is not unbearable, I am angry that planning for years is not as good as leaking secrets. And Lin Yuan's matter, how can the concubine explain it? ”
This is a bit embarrassing for the three of His Royal Highnesses, and maybe they still have ideas for investigating the leak case, so how can the concubine explain it, there is nothing they can do. As the only daughter of the Yasukuni Mansion, Ling Guifei has never done anything domineering, on the contrary, she is virtuous and virtuous, after the death of the queen, the saint wanted to crown her as the queen several times, but she pushed it over, and the court also respected this concubine Niangniang. But this makes the concubine strong, and Lin Yuan is her only brother, which is really difficult to explain.
Seeing that the three of them were silent, Li Yuan said fiercely: "Cao Lin and Liu Ren, from now on, I will not give you much time to secretly investigate the leak of secrets, a month." You two must make this matter clear to me, and don't let one of them go. After many years of benevolence and righteousness, I don't want to still have people who take care of Jun's grace in vain. ”
"Wechen obeys." Cao Lin and Liu Ren were awe-inspiring and hurriedly replied.
"Holy Lord, how should the war in the north be adjusted?" Xia Lindao asked.
"The purpose has been achieved, thinking that the Golden Horde Court is now in chaos, Yang Zhao must know in his heart, directly implement the last item, let the Golden Horde Court be completely chaotic, and a fragmented northern realm is our ultimate goal."
"No." The three of them bowed and slowly exited the main hall. As soon as they left the palace, Liu Ren and Cao Lin stopped Xia Lin and said, "Lord Shoufu, how is this matter good?" ”
Glancing at the two of them, Xia Lindao sighed and said: "Handle the case with heart, this matter will not be closed easily, the saint has already moved to kill, some people have indeed passed, and joked about me towards a century-old foundation." They are afraid that they have forgotten that bloody night ten years ago. ”
Listening to Xia Lindao's words, Liu Ren and Cao Lin were cold, ten years ago, the current saint was on the throne with the blood of hundreds of officials, and almost all officials in the yamen in Beijing were beheaded overnight, and few were spared. It is not difficult to investigate this case, but now the Holy One and those people have really come to this point. The two hurriedly bid farewell to Xia Lin and returned to their mansions.
Rubbing his sour eyes, Li Yuan stood up and said to Huang Yang, who was standing aside: "Pass it on, tonight's events in the harem can't be passed on to a word, if you let the concubine hear a word, the rod will be killed!" ”
"Yes." Huang Yang's heart sank. Bow down and answer.
"Swing and go to Concubine Ling tonight." Li Yuan gave an order and walked towards the harem.
