At the same time, on the main hall of morality in Jiankang City, a thick fog mixed with smoke and spicy smell filled the entire palace, and the military generals of Wenchen had already exploded.

Today is the New Year's Day court, Chen Shubao was drunk all night last night, and followed Zhang Lihua all night, and he didn't even bother to read the emergency military report sent by Shi Wenqing, and threw it aside, letting Shi Wenqing deal with it by himself.

Today, until the third pole of the day, the civil and military ministers are as anxious as ants on a hot pot in the main hall, and he still snores with Zhang Lihua in his arms and can't sleep.

Nearly sixty years old, Lu Guangda, a black-faced and white-haired general of the leading army of the Central Army, was dressed in a military uniform, and asked Shi Wenqing in a deep voice: "Shi Zhongshu, may I ask if the enemy army crossed the river last night, and they have already occupied the new pavilion, so important to the military situation, why didn't you convene everyone overnight to discuss?" Also, did you report it to the emperor? ”

Shi Wenqing, who is now in his forties, and Shi Wenqing, who has a white face and a slight beard, is also constantly wiping his sweat with a handkerchief at this time, and has been staring at the back door where Chen Shubao came out when he went to court.

Hearing Lu Guangda's words, he turned his head, spread his hands, and said, "General Lu, as soon as I received the military report yesterday, I urgently presented it to the emperor.

But you also know that the emperor was very excited yesterday, and he directly sent this military report back and asked me to deal with it myself. The military situation was like fire, and I didn't have time to convene you to discuss, so I sent General Fan Meng to gather more than 30,000 defenders of Jiankang City to resist. At today's court meeting, I would like to ask the emperor to continue to instruct the next step. ”

Another minister on the side, Shen Keqing, a low-eyed Zhongshu scholar, also echoed: "I was also present when the military report came yesterday, and what Shi Zhongshu said was true, and I also thought that this was the best way to deal with it at that time." ”

Ren Zhong, the tall and tall general, who is over the age of old, and has a snow-white long beard and a chest-length beard, snorted heavily, pointed at Shi Wenqing and shouted: "Shi Zhongshu, on weekdays, when you meet the Lord, it's just a matter of slapping the horse, and when you encounter this kind of fiery military situation, you actually dare to call the shots?"

The old man's 30,000 army is stationed in Jubao Mountain in the south of the city, you don't let the old man lead the troops to counterattack, but let General Fan, who is in the city, temporarily transfer the city guard troops to fight. It's all at this time, you haven't forgotten to fight for credit, you're only fucking happy when the Sui army entered Jiankang City, aren't you? ”

Shi Wenqing's heart was weak for a while, his face was swollen red, and his sweat was like rain, but he couldn't say a word.

Lu Guangda turned to Xiao Maha, the hussar general who stood in the first place among the generals, tall and mighty, and stood like a mountain, and said earnestly: "General Xiao, you are now the head of the generals, and your daughter is also a concubine, at this time of national disaster, you can no longer sit idly by, please take the lead, I will enter the palace and face the saint immediately, please go to war!"

Xiao Maha glanced at Lu Guangda coldly and said, "We are all courtiers, we can only obey the will of the Son of Heaven, abide by the way of the ministers, and not act rashly. Today is the court meeting, the emperor should come out immediately, and then I will speak as a military general. ”

Standing in the first place of civil officials, Shangshu Lingjiang-Zong, an old scholar who is over the age of old, old and long-looking, and walks staggeringly, also said: "General Lu, Shi Zhongshu also has his difficulties, and now that the national crisis is at hand, we and the civil and military should work together, and we must not suspect each other."

Now that the enemy army is pressing the border, the matter of fighting on the battlefield still depends on the generals, everyone has a feasible idea first, and we will play together when the emperor comes. ”

Ren Zhong said hatefully: "What idea? Now we are taking care of one thing and losing the other, the new pavilion is lost, there is no news from the quarrying there now, and there is no Tang newspaper in the South Xuzhou area since this morning. At today's court meeting, Huang Ke, the assassin of Southern Xuzhou, did not come, but he was afraid that it would not be safe there. Last night, I didn't take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold to counterattack the new pavilion fortress, and now I'm afraid that the enemy army has already built a camp to defend it, and it is not so easy to defeat, what else is there to discuss!"

Lu Guangda waved his hand: "General Ren, don't be so pessimistic, now that the matter has come to this, it's useless to be angry, Jiang Shangshu said well just now, we have to quickly come up with a way, now there are more than 100,000 armor soldiers inside and outside Jiankang City, we must quickly find out the movement of the enemy army, understand the situation where the quarry, if the enemy army in the new pavilion cannot be eliminated for a while, besiege them, and the most important thing now is that when Tu reaches the Liyang line, it cannot be lost."

General Zhou still has tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Jiujiang, and he just repelled several attacks of the northern army a few days ago, even if the Sui army crosses the river, as long as we stick to Jiankang and wait for General Zhou's elite soldiers to come to help, we can repeat the Jedi counterattack of Emperor Taizu Wu back then!"

Chen Baxian was under Jiankang City back then, and he broke the past of hundreds of thousands of troops in the Northern Qi Dynasty, which made the Southern Chen Wenwu in every court begin to shine again.

Even Shi Wenqing, who didn't dare to raise his head just now, regained some of his former vigor and began to be happy: "Yes, Emperor Wu was a tired soldier back then, and Jiankang was also a remnant back then, but now our army has enough food and grass, and the elite soldiers and fierce generals are gathered here, so there is no reason to be afraid of the enemy." Even if the Sui army crosses the river, as long as everyone works together, they will definitely be able to repeat the legend of Emperor Wu!"

Ren Zhong glanced at Shi Wenqing fiercely and said, "Shi Zhongshu, you transferred all the garrison troops in Jiankang City out of the city yesterday, have you ever thought about what you will do to resist if the enemy army sneaks up on Jiankang yesterday?" Are you taking those parts you robbed me of back then, and now you are in your mansion and you are sending them to Shen Zhongshu, Cai Shangshu, and Jiang Fu to shoot them as favors, and those veterans who have become your family's soldiers? ”

Shi Wenqing's face was blue and white for a while, he was already at a loss for this matter, Ren Zhong was afraid of his power over the years, and he never dared to settle accounts with him, and now he said it in public in the court, Shi Wenqing could only say back: "General Ren, it was your subordinates who committed crimes back then, and the emperor was the master to distribute them to the adults who were in charge, you can't declare a personal vendetta at this time." ”

Ren Zhong snorted heavily: "Now that the emperor is not here, we people have to make up our minds first." The enemy situation is unknown, but if Quarry and South Xuzhou are lost, all the troops near our Jiankang City will have to be dispatched to meet the enemy, who will defend the imperial city at that time? Lord Shi, it's useless to shout slogans, your servants are thousands, and they have always been rampant in Jiankang City, and now that the national crisis is at the head, you should also join the army to serve the country. ”

Shi Wenqing's face was swollen red, and he said with a stiff neck: "General Ren, what do you mean by attacking me again and again today?" With the invasion of foreign enemies, is it not possible to counterattack? ”

Ren Zhong laughed: "Counterattack? The counterattack has to wait until the Sui army is repulsed first, you instigate the emperor to spend all day drinking, at this New Year's Day meeting, the army is in a hurry, the emperor can't come out, we courtiers want to discuss a way to defend the city, and you still say that I deliberately can't get along with you? Shi Zhongshu, you may not be too much of a dish, I Ren Zhong don't have time to settle accounts with you now!"

Ren Zhong's words were righteous and strict, which made Shi Wenqing speechless, and he snorted and said: "Even if you want to let the family members join the army, you can't just let a few of us come out, General Ren, you can't watch the excitement in vain." ”

Ren Zhong said sharply: "Shi Zhongshu, we are all people who want to go to the battlefield to fight for their lives, not to mention the family, even my Ren Zhong's sons and grandsons, all of whom must be strong and stubborn, and rush to the front." My subordinates were all robbed of you a few years ago, and now I don't even have a personal guard, and it's my sons who usually protect me when Ren Zhong travels to the palace, what do you want!? ”

Jiang Zong's white eyebrows moved when he saw Shi Wenqing scolded like this, and said: "General Ren, don't be rash at this time, since Shi Zhongshu promised to let the family members join the army to defend the city, the old man also made a statement, and my family members and nephews also went to the city to defend and be your general Ren's backup, so you should always rest assured." ”

Lu Guangda nodded: "It's not enough to rely on the family alone, now is a critical moment, under the so-called heavy reward, there must be brave men, now we must open the treasury, reward the soldiers, and recruit loyal people from the people to join the army." ”

Shen Keqing said coldly: "General Lu, don't make such a fuss, how many people the Sui army has crossed the river has not yet been determined, the front is being verified, the first few times we also mobilized twice, the result was a false alarm, now I think it's better to wait and see, so as not to waste money and food in vain for a military report with a good reputation, and make people laugh." ”
