Chapter 713: The Emperor's Political Wisdom

Li Yu sneered and was silent. Nature's "『

He was waiting for the emperor's concessions. The emperor's psychological struggle at the moment was beyond words, but Li Yu was not afraid, he knew that the emperor would give in.

The emperor cast his deep gaze on the military map, and the afterglow of the corner of his eyes inadvertently fell on the two places in the south and south of the mountain, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he remembered Kong Sheng.

If Kong Sheng ...... The emperor weighed left and right, and suddenly felt that if Kong Sheng recruited the Jiangnan army from Jiangnan into Shannan, and then went north to attack Henan, and formed an outflanking encirclement with Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi's two armies, it might be more appropriate than transferring the central-army-team from Chang'an to the east.

In this way, there is no need to let Li Yu get involved. His deep and indifferent gaze was projected on Li Yu's body, and he said in his heart, you will honestly give me in the capital as your prince and prince, and honestly wait for me to take over after a hundred years, as for those wishful thinking, they are all in vain.

The Emperor made a quick decision, turned around, and strode back to his dragon chair.

The corners of Li Yu's mouth showed a fearless smile. He thought that the emperor had decided to give in, because the emperor really had no other choice.

The emperor looked around at everyone and said lightly: "I have thought about it again and again, the fall of Luoyang is a matter of great importance and endangers Chang'an. It is imperative that Chang'an be recovered immediately and that Shi Siming's rebels be expelled from Henan Province. After that, Xu Tu attacked the east line of the Fanyang River. ”

"I think that where Chang'an Gyeonggi is located, it must be heavily defended, and troops and horses cannot be lightly transferred to the east. Nan Jiyun, the deputy general of the Shence Army, led an army of 20,000 to defend Shangzhou and defend Chang'an. 10,000 soldiers and horses were transferred to Hexi and Lingwu to Yongzhou in the south to form a rescue for Chang'an. With these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses guarding Chang'an, I thought that I could sit back and relax. ”

As soon as the emperor's words fell, Li Yu frowned, and immediately retorted: "Father, if Luoyang is not recovered, Chang'an will never be in crisis." If Shi Siming's rebels occupy the entire Henan and drive straight in, how can they defend the periphery of Chang'an with just one Nanjiyun? ”

The emperor sneered, his eyes became a little indifferent, he waved his hand and said, "Prince, I haven't finished my words yet, is this not for me to speak?" ”

The emperor's voice was not high, but there was a hint of murderous intent in it.

Li Yu was stunned and had to bow down: "Erchen doesn't dare!" ”

The emperor took a deep breath, "But Kong Shengdu led more than 50,000 soldiers and horses from Jiangnan to Shannan, from Jiangnan to Shannan, and then went north to Henan to recover Luoyang." Kong Sheng used to quell the rebellion in Henan, quite a record, and outstanding military achievements, I thought that it would be more secure for Kong Sheng to lead the army into Henan. Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think? ”

Li Mi and Du Hong gradually exchanged a look, and they both read a certain admiration and admiration from each other's eyes, the emperor is still the emperor after all, he used Kong Sheng, and he turned the originally seemingly dead end into life, Kong Sheng went up from the north and south of the Yangtze River, and Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi formed a circle, which is definitely very clever in terms of strategy.

"My Emperor Shengming! The subordinates are impressed! Li Mi Du Hong gradually got up together and bowed to the ground.

The emperor laughed and turned his head to look at Yan Zhenqing, who stood up and saluted solemnly: "The old minister thinks that Your Majesty's strategy is very feasible. King Kong Jun was quite famous for quelling the rebellion in the past, and he led the soldiers and horses from the south of the Yangtze River and Shannan to the north to quell the rebellion. Lao Chen believes that our army is surrounded on three sides, and the day when Shi Siming's traitors ambush him is not far away! ”

Yan Zhenqing also echoed the emperor's decision.

The more the emperor thought about it, the happier he became, so he looked at Li Yu with a smile, "Prince, what do you think?" ”

Li Yu's face was ugly. He didn't expect that at this juncture, the emperor still remembered Kong Sheng. But he knew that even if he spoke up to oppose it, the emperor would not change his mind easily, and the emperor had already won the support of Li Mi and others, and it would be useless for him to oppose it alone.

Li Yu was extremely angry in his heart. He felt that Li Heng was really unreasonable, he would rather believe in an outsider, and would rather ignore the society of his ancestors, but also be suspicious of himself, and completely lost his demeanor.

But no matter how angry Li Yu was in his heart, he didn't dare to show it. He knew that the current emperor was not as good as before, and the previous emperor was indecisive and too merciful, and it was difficult to be ruthless, especially for his own princes, princesses, princesses, and clans. But the current emperor is not only accustomed to being arbitrary, but also shows a bit of hideous minions, which Li Yu can feel from his attitude towards the old emperor and himself.

Li Yu blamed Kong Sheng for all this.

He believed that the emperor had been bewitched by Kong Sheng, and had become so ruthless and turned his hands into clouds and his hands into rain. However, he overlooked the important point, which was supposed to be the basic quality of an emperor. And his understanding of his father in the past may not be objective, in fact, this may be related to Kong Sheng, but it is by no means the main factor - such as the shadow guard established by the emperor privately, as early as many years ago, Li Heng began to prepare for his reign in the world.

It's just that in the past, Li Heng didn't have time to show his strong side at all. And Kong Sheng's appearance is at most an inducement and catalyst.

Li Yu gritted his teeth and said softly: "My father is wise, and my sons think that it is feasible for Kong Shengdu to lead the soldiers and horses of Shannan and Jiangnan to the north to quell the rebellion. It's just that the military situation is urgent, and the news from the capital to the south of the Yangtze River will be sent to the south again, and Kong Sheng will reorganize the army and go north, and the time will be delayed, if the fighter plane is delayed, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

Li Yu's words are also reasonable, impartially.

The emperor smiled, and suddenly said with a solemn face: "Order the army department to expedite the edict to Jiangnan, and order Kong Sheng to go out within three days after receiving the edict, mobilize more than 50,000 soldiers and horses from Jiangnan and Shannan, and go north to Henan!" Tell Kong Sheng that if you dare to delay the fighter and delay the march, I will not spare it! ”

Li Mi bowed down and said, "The minister obeys the order!" ”

The emperor said categorically: "Spread my will, and order Li Guangbi to reorganize the army in Xuzhou and Guo Ziyi, and attack Henan in two ways. Li Guangbi, Guo Ziyi, and Kong Sheng's three armies, which one takes Luoyang first, I will be canonized as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, and the commander-in-chief of the three armies! ”

The corners of Li Yu's mouth twitched, but he was speechless.

Du Hong gradually got up and said solemnly: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

The emperor sighed and said: "Qingchen, I heard that Zhang Xun also had experience in fighting the rebels in Henan in the past, but he and Nan Jiyun are guarding Shangzhou together, so we must be cautious and protect the safety of the capital!" ”

Yan Zhenqing snorted, "What Your Majesty said is reasonable. Zhang Xun held on to Suiyang for a long time in the past, although he did not have the same outstanding military exploits as King Kongjun, but he was victorious in sticking to the city without losing. This man is both civil and military, and can be regarded as the main general. The old minister thought that the military affairs of Shangzhou could be dominated by Zhang Xun, supplemented by Nan Jiyun. ”

Yan Zhenqing's evaluation of Zhang Xun is still objective and fair.

In terms of charging into battle, Zhang Xun is definitely not as good as Nan Jiyun. But in terms of comprehensive ability, Nan Jiyun is far worse than Zhang Xun. Moreover, Nan Jiyun was originally a general under Zhang Xun in the past, and now Zhang Xun is the main guard of Shangzhou, which is also more conducive to the relationship between the two and closely cooperates with each other. This is the art of employing people.
