By the time Chu Yun completed the third exam from the imperial examination room, Wu Yu and Wu Jiye had already started to face off in court, and the two had quarreled for a long time, but no one was convinced, so in the end, they still made trouble in front of Xuande.

Anyway, the two of them are reasonable, if they really let them argue, it is estimated that there will be no result if they fight for a few more months, so it is still up to Xuande to decide.

The core of the contradiction is actually only one, Wu Jiye asked for money, but Wu Yu refused to give it.

Xuande was annoyed by their quarrel, and directly made a conclusion: in the future, the money of the Ministry of War will no longer be supervised by the Ministry of Households, but will be decided by the Ministry of War independently, and this money will be paid off periodically, and the Ministry of Households will pay it off at one time.

Wu Jiye asks for money, and he can only ask for it once a year, which is all the expenses of military spending in a year, and if he wants to make some other mess, he will not use it to find the household department, and the household department will not give it.

This time, it is equivalent to removing the last shackles of the army, how could Wu Yu not know, even if he didn't know, there was one less department under his control, which was obviously a decline in power!

Looking for Xuande's ruling, such a result was obtained, of course Wu Yu was not convinced, but Xuande did not give him a chance to disagree, and after announcing the result, he directly drove him away with Wu Jiye, and the acting was quite real.

Wu Yu also suddenly woke up when he returned home to vent his anger, who in this world wants to control the army the most?

Since ancient times, military power has been the most concerned issue for those in power, and the monarch of financial power may not care too much, but military power is something that the emperor will never relax.

Now that Xuande is lifting the seal on the military power step by step, is this so mediocre that he has lost his mind?

It's impossible, so, in fact, it's all a routine!

Wu Yu figured this out, and there was nothing to disagree with, he couldn't afford to provoke him, although he couldn't figure out what Xuande was going to do, but Wu Yu knew how irrational it was to stand in line.

So when Wu Jiye came to ask for a large amount of military expenses, Wu Yu didn't shirk too much, and gave it as he said.

When Chu Yun heard the above news, he was shocked, and he also went to participate in the nine-day imperial examination, and after the results came out, the sky in this Great Xia changed......

There may be some people who haven't noticed anything wrong yet, but Chu Yun already knows in his heart that the preparations for war have begun.

Now that the Ministry of War is completely in the hands of Wu Jiye, it can also be said that it is in the hands of Xuande, and even the finances can no longer control the Ministry of War, so what Xuande wants to do next is probably the Northern Expedition!

Thinking of this, Chu Yun suddenly felt a little excited.

I always feel that Da Xia and Da Yan will fight one day, and this day is finally coming.

However, it is impossible for Chu Yun to go to the battlefield, and there are still many available generals in the imperial court now, and there is no need for Chu Yun, a civil official, to come forward.

After starting to be completely independent from the Ministry of War, the atmosphere in the entire capital was a little weird, Chu Yun's sense of smell was extremely sensitive, so naturally he would not go out to do things at such a moment, so he stayed at home and played with Wu Yun'er, did not teach werewolves to kill, but taught Wu Yun'er to play landlords.

Sometimes the green clothes will be called, sometimes the name is Mengyun, if Chu Yun is not there, it is the green-clothed Mengyun, and Wu Yun'er is playing.

Time slipped away quietly when Chu Yun's house became a salted fish, and it was also because Chu Yun couldn't find a better target to hit now, and the clue investigation in the palace had no progress for the time being.

After all, it is quite difficult to attract a eunuch with status and status to help Chu Yun, and Chu Yun has invested a lot of money in it, but there is still no result.

Chu Yun was not in a hurry, he just wanted to confirm an answer, when would it be investigated, or whether it could be investigated, Chu Yun was not so concerned.

This is a bit of a contradiction.

After more than a month, the results of the township test were finally there, Chu Yun was sniffing the osmanthus in the yard that day, this osmanthus was still given to Chu Yun by Zhao Gou, and it could be regarded as Zhao Gou's thoughts, but Chu Yun always felt that under the care of Green Yi, this osmanthus tree seemed to grow better.

In October, the osmanthus floated in, and a burst of gongs and drums sounded in front of Chu Yun's house. Chu Yun listened to the movement and went out, and a man with a red tasseled hat on his head, riding a horse, and beating gongs and drums posted a newspaper in front of his door with a newspaper in his hand. The newspaper read:

Good news

The lord of your mansion, Chu Yunying, should take the high school entrance examination

First place

Good news Fan Jin

As soon as Chu Yun saw the name, his face suddenly turned slumped, Lao Tie, aren't you going to play with the move?

At this time, the others also went out, so Chu Yun took out the red envelope that had been prepared, handed it to the newspaper, and after receiving some compliments from him, he bowed his hands to many neighbors......

Well, his neighborhood is the Shadow Guard on the other side.

Although it is not particularly difficult to lift people, Chu Yun is naturally a little happy in his heart to be able to lift people, after all, he is choked by the continuous smell for this imperial examination. If he didn't get hit in the end, then Chu Yun would really go berserk.

It stands to reason that Chu Yun was supposed to have a banquet to celebrate, although he didn't have three or two friends coming over. However, on the same day, an urgent express came from the north.

"Report, Yanmen Pass is in an emergency, Yanguo General Yelu Hongji led 100,000 troops to attack the city, and Yanmen Pass was broken, only in the evening."

The emergency report from the border pass didn't know how many horses had died, in short, the herald had just passed the news to the military department and reached Wu Jiye's ears, and he fell down and threw himself into the street.

Wu Jiye only hurriedly said to people: "Take care of him." ”

He hurried to the palace. Xuande was also very angry when he heard the news,, I haven't done it yet, you guys start fighting first? And so caught off guard!

Every year from October to December, it is the peak period of border wars, because autumn is the harvest season, and it is precisely for this reason that Yan often sends people to snatch the fruits of victory, and then clash with the border army.

However, since Chu Yun's caravan was established, Yan Guo actually wouldn't come to Yanmen Pass for trouble because of food shortages, they simply wanted to fight, so they came to find trouble from time to time.

However, they never dispatched too many people, one or two thousand are considered large-scale invasions, so this time 100,000 people......

The battleable soldiers of the entire grassland are about 300,000......

So 100,000 people is really an exaggeration, and the per capita combat effectiveness of the grassland people is basically a little stronger than that of the Great Xia side, and the Great Xia side often has a 1.5 times military advantage, always maintaining a balance with the Yan Kingdom, and sometimes even stabilizing the head.

But this time, the defenders numbered only a third of the besieging force.

If it weren't for the Yanmen Pass to defend the city, and the Yanguo cavalry was not good at attacking the city, it is estimated that when the news was transmitted to the capital, the Yanmen Pass would have been cold.

Xuande was furious, but he did not forget to give the order.

Xuande directly summoned the six ministers, and by the way, he also called the prince, and the others were too lazy to call, and it was a waste of time to gather too many people.

The military situation is urgent, if it weren't for the cooperation of these people, Xuande estimated that he could directly ask Wu Jiye to work.

Now that the cabinet bosses have arrived, and there is Zhao Gou, the melon-eating masses, Xuande directly ordered: "First give Wu Jiye, the general of the expedition to the west, as the general of the expedition to the Yan, and allocate 30,000 soldiers and horses to Yanmen Pass to support." Commander-in-chief of all wars. ”

I don't know why, but when several other cabinet bigwigs heard that Wu Jiye was going to be transferred, they were all relieved, but they didn't worry about this war.

It's good that Wu Jiye, the-stirring stick, is gone, and everything is fine.

Then, Xuande also gave Wu Jiye a gold medal, a holy decree, and a sword. The Sword of Heaven is a symbol of power, meaning that he can cut anyone with a single sword. Now Wu Jiye's power is unprecedentedly large.

But this is also because Xuande asked him to lead a small number of people to rush to help, and these 30,000 reinforcements, of course, could not be transferred from the capital, but from other places, to give him these things, which is convenient for him to act. The other six departments were called to ask them to cooperate wholeheartedly with Wu Jiye's work. We can't afford to be held back at this time.

Although it was Yanguo who took the lead this time, Xuande was not panicked at all, Yanmen Pass was not so easy to overcome, after all, it was a Xiongguan, and the ability of the guard, Xuande could barely be trusted. And Xuande originally intended to fight with Yan Guo, but he didn't expect Yan Guo to make the first move, which just happened to be in line with Xuande's meaning.

This time, both sides should not fight pettily, and they will both fight to the death!

Zhao Gou was fortunate to get this information at the first time, and when he came out of the palace, he hurriedly went to Chu Yun to come to the mansion to discuss, and after Chu Yun learned the news, he was immediately distressed.

His Chamber of Commerce, there is no news yet, and he doesn't know what is going on now, but Chu Yun seriously suspects that if the Yanmen Gate is broken, his Chamber of Commerce is estimated to be peeling off its skin. After all, the people of Yan Kingdom have always been more interested in Chu Yun's property of the Chamber of Commerce, if it weren't for Chu Yun's caravan being very influential, the people of Yan Kingdom would have had scruples and didn't dare to make a move, and it is estimated that they would have been eaten clean.

And now that the two sides are at war, it's normal to rob!

"Didn't you stay in Yanmen Pass? There should be no problem with the defenders for the last three days! ”

Zhao Gou was very excited about the war, and he couldn't wait to go to the front line in person and fight with those people. Of course, Zhao Gou is just thinking about it, now that his wife and children are at home, he can't leave. I can only talk to Chu Yun, and I have a good time.

Chu Yun pondered for a while and said: "The combat quality of the border army is still very strong, and it will not be excessively weaker than that of the Yan Kingdom, not to mention, we have a city gate, in the case of a large number of people on the other side, as long as the city gate is closed and does not go out, the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom who are good at raiding will not be able to play a role, so what His Royal Highness said is not unreasonable." ”

Chu Yun originally wanted to say that it was impossible for Yanmen Pass to be broken, because the cavalry was not good at attacking the city, and our defender was a veteran, so it was hard to say if there was more time, and there should be no problem in three days. Moreover, Yumen Pass and Canghai Customs, which are also the three passes, will not see death without help, they have to get a little closer, Yanmen Pass is in an emergency, and the first time should be to send them a message to call for support.

This kind of emergency transfer of troops was allowed by Great Xia, so, with reinforcements, Chu Yun felt that the Yan Kingdom might return in defeat.

It's just that Chu Yun felt that he was a little poisonous, for fear that he would live Yan Guo with a mouthful of milk and milk his side to death, so he put the words to his mouth and took them back. just expressed his recognition of Zhao Gou.

Zhao Gou was also happy, but he still said with some regret: "It's a pity that I can't go to the battlefield with my cousin, what a chic and happy life it will be!" ”

"Don't Your Highness like your current life?"

Chu Yun saw the crown princess Yan Yi coming over, and suddenly made a bad move, and asked a proposition with an inducing direction. Of course, Zhao Gou didn't know that Chu Yun was so good at playing, and replied very seriously: "Of course, life is a little boring now, every day is just a variety of flowers, and you have to learn how to deal with government affairs, or it's interesting to fight and kill." ”

"Yes."

Yan Yi asked nonchalantly, because it was in his own home, and he had not developed the habit of reporting before, so Zhao Gou, who was chatting with Chu Yun, did not notice Yan Yi's approach at all, and then he was arrested on the spot.

The meaning of his words can also be understood as that life with Yan Yi is boring......

Chu Yun saw that the couple seemed to be about to break down, and immediately retreated silently. No one said hello, anyway, now the two only have each other in their eyes, so Chu Yun took care of his clothes and went away, hiding his merit and fame.

Although he said that he couldn't break up this pair, Chu Yun felt that tossing Zhao Gou was also a kind of fun in life, people, always looking for something happy.

However, Chu Yun probably couldn't be happy, three days after receiving the expedited border pass, the urgent express came from the border pass again, Yanmen Pass fell, the guards died in battle, and the people didn't know how much they were alive or dead.

This news suddenly made everyone confused, isn't it scientific? How did the people of Yan do it, how could they break through the city gate so quickly!

However, now it is not something that may be impossible to study, but the destruction of the Yan Kingdom, and Great Xia is missing a barrier in an instant, and it is a very critical barrier.

Break the Yanmen Pass, and further south, there will be only one Tong Pass, if it is broken again, then the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in Daxia will be trampled under the iron hooves of the Yan Kingdom.

The whole country is confused, this city is too unscientific, it should have been an opportunity to fight back, but now it has suddenly fallen into such a dangerous situation, fortunately, the time is calculated, Wu Jiye's support should have been in place, Wu Jiye is guarding Tongguan, and he should not let the Yan army go south.

But how did this city come to be?

After Chu Yun learned the news, he silently planted a red flag on his back.

However, obviously he didn't say it, why did he still break it?

Chu Yun felt that this matter was neither scientific nor metaphysical!

Originally, Chu Yun felt that it was not his turn to intervene in this matter for the time being, but Chu Yun received a summons from Xuande-

Chu Yun, what do you think?
