Chapter 51: Think Twice

The green eyebrows are far away, as beautiful as the autumn moon, with a faint anger on her face at this time, just like the witch Luoshen, cold and amazing.

Don't say that it was in the Song Dynasty, even in modern times, Zhao Dongting rarely saw such a temperamental woman.

He came back to his senses, waved to the guards in the courtyard, and said, "Stand down and let them leave." ”

It wasn't that he was reluctant to kill the female assassin because she was beautiful, but it was absolutely that these two assassins were innocent and cute, with a chivalrous spirit, so he didn't want to kill them. If they had had tonight's conversation, they wouldn't have come to assassinate them again.

"Imperial ......"

Yue Peng was in a hurry, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Zhao Dongting with his eyes.

The tall female assassin looked down at Zhao Dongting suspiciously, "Why didn't you kill me?"

Zhao Dongting smiled: "Then why don't you take my 'life'?"

The female assassin didn't know what to say.

Zhao Dongting sighed and said: "I am a soldier, you are a people, although you came to assassinate me, but both of us are thinking about this great Song Limin." My sword is used against the thieves, but not against my own people. ”

"You ......"

The tall female assassin's eyes instantly became extremely complicated.

The little assassin said beside him: "Sister, he is a good emperor!"

The tall female assassin stopped talking, took her sister's hand, whistled at the sea serpent again, and walked to the corner.

Both of them were extremely skillful, and they kicked a few steps on the wall with their legs, and they actually climbed over the two-meter-high wall like this.

The sea serpent also followed over the wall.

Yue Peng and Li Yuanxiu hurriedly walked in front of Zhao Dongting and knelt on the ground, "The emperor was frightened." ”

Zhao Dongting looked at the wall with unfinished eyes, shook his head and said, "I don't blame you, it's my negligence." ”

Then, he suddenly remembered something, and said to the guards present: "Tonight, the Yellow Dragon's attack on people must not be publicized!"

Huang Long has become someone else's pet, and if this thing spreads, the hearts of the people who have just gathered will be afraid that they will be a lot more scattered.

The guards hurriedly responded.

Yue Peng arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to search for those two female thieves?"

Zhao Dongting waved his hand and smiled: "Since I have already let the two of them go, what are you searching them for?"

As everyone knows, at this time, the two female assassins were actually hiding outside the wall. Hearing Zhao Dongting's words, the sisters glanced at each other, and then they really left.

It's just that this night is not destined to be peaceful.

Zhao Dongting had just asked Yue Peng and the others to take the injured guards down to heal their injuries, and were about to go to bed, when Concubine Yang Shufei heard the news and hurried over.

At the beginning, the leader of the guards shouted for help, and even Yue Peng and the others were alarmed, and it was naturally impossible for Yang Shufei not to know about it.

She arrived with Yang Yidong, Ying'er, and some guards.

For Ying'er, Concubine Yang Shufei is in love with the house and Wu, because Zhao Dongting is particularly fond of Ying'er, she also gradually favored this soft and sensible maid, and in the past two days, she has asked Ying'er to sleep in her bedroom, which is very favorable. Of course, there must be an intention to cover up the matter between her and Yang Yidong.

In the dormitory, Concubine Yang Shu, who was very frightened, had to reprimand Zhao Dongting for a few words, but she burst into tears.

Ying'er also looked at Zhao Dongting worriedly, her eyes were quite resentful.

Zhao Dongting saw that Concubine Yang Shufei seemed to be more nervous than the sky falling, and while he was moved, he couldn't help but have a little headache.

But he had no other way but to persuade and coax, so it was not easy to calm the two women and go back to sleep.

At this time, it was almost two o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Dongting was very tired, and he quickly fell asleep on the bed.

But in the morning, he still had to go to the political hall on time and on time. This made Zhao Dongting mutter, it turned out that being an emperor was not so easy.

This body was already very weak, and I didn't sleep well, and I felt even more uncomfortable.

With the eyes of the two pandas to the council hall, Zhao Dongting only felt that his eyes couldn't be opened, and his head was groggy. But I can't help it, I can only hold on.

It was not easy for him to take over the stormy Southern Song Dynasty court, and he had to set an example.

The ministers have already taken their feet in the palace.

Yue Peng's injuries were almost healed, and at this time, he was also standing in the middle of the court as the person in charge of the official affairs of the guards and infantry troops, and his eyes were shining with great anticipation.

He is now favored by Zhao Dongting, and it can be said that it is the time for him to achieve his ambition in life.

Looking at Na Su Quan's 'dang' again, it will be much more pitiful.

He was transferred to the front division of the palace, but the front division of the palace did not have any idle duties, and Su Liuyi only arranged for him to be the commander of the class, and the position was naturally reduced.

If it weren't for the fact that he used to be the deputy official of the guard infantry army, and everyone knew that his position as the squad commander was only a temporary matter, I am afraid that he would not even be qualified to enter this council hall.

Li Yuanxiu shouted at the top of his throat that something was going on.

Zhang Shijie immediately walked out of the ranks and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do." ”

Zhao Dongting asked with a strong spirit, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Shijie's face was solemn, "The minister got a report yesterday that the Yuan Thief Emperor Kublai Khan ordered the rebel general Zhang Hongfan to be the marshal, and Li Heng to be the deputy marshal and march into Fuzhou. Rectify the military horses, grain and grass, I am afraid that there is a plan to enter my Xianglong County. ”

The ministers were all shocked, and suddenly there was a lot of discussion in the council hall.

Zhao Dongting was also very surprised, according to history, Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng should not have entered Fuzhou at this time. It seems that his arrival has really affected the direction of this era.

A colorful butterfly, gently flapping its wings on the other side of the ocean, really caused a tsunami.

Zhao Dongting originally thought that he still had enough time to prepare, but now it was imminent in the blink of an eye.

Hunan, Guangxi and other places had Yuan general Ali The Hague eyeing the tiger, Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng led the army into Fuzhou at this time, and nine times out of ten they came to Jiezhou Island.

After being silent for a long time, Zhao Dongting asked in a deep voice, "How many soldiers and horses do Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng have?"

Zhang Shijie said: "Ten ...... One hundred and fifty thousand. ”

The ministers are even more "colorful".

On Qizhou Island, counting the forbidden army in front of the palace, and then there are all kinds of characters who came to King Qin on the way to escape, the total number of sergeants is only 20,000.

Although most of Zhang Hongfan's 150,000 military horses were transporting grain and grass, the army that actually participated in the war would definitely not be less than 50,000.

20,000 against 50,000, the odds of winning are slim.

Zhao Dongting breathed a relaxed sigh, he knew that the ancient army had to occupy a lot of military horses just by marching and fighting. If less than half of the sergeants of the Yuan army actually participated in the war, then there may not be no hope of victory.

Just as he was about to speak, a minister below came out of the crowd and said, "Your Majesty, let's get out of here!"

This person is none other than Su Liuyi, who is in charge of the official affairs of the front of the palace.

He was the real commander of the 8,000 forbidden army in front of the palace, and at this time he said that he wanted to escape, and several ministers hurriedly came out to echo him.

Zhao Dongting took the case heavily, "I said that I will never be the rat emperor again, even if I die, I will die in this Xianglong County!"

Su Liuyi stopped talking.

Zhang Shijie hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, but the Yuan army is powerful, and we are carrying tens of thousands of people, if we fight with the Yuan army, it is inevitable that there will be a river of casualties!"

Zhao Dongting's eyes swept over the rest of the ministers in the hall.

Some people whispered, and some people came out of the column, also asking to leave the island.

They were all scared by the Yuan army.

Before Zhao Dongting came, the Southern Song Dynasty went up to the monarchs and ministers, down to the common people, emphasizing literature over martial arts, and the "sex" character was weak, most of them were like this.

Seeing that no one said that the ministers below wanted to fight, Zhao Dongting inevitably felt a little disappointed in his heart.

At this time, Yue Peng suddenly walked out of the column and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the last general requests to lead the army to stay in Xianglong County to resist the Yuan army!"

Su Liu Yiden sneered and sneered: "You are only a few hundred people, how can you fight with the Yuan army?"

Yue Peng only said: "If the emperor doesn't leave, the last general will sacrifice his life to protect the emperor!"

"Good!"

Zhao Dongting stood up suddenly, his eyes flashed, and said, "General Yue, I really didn't misunderstand you!

The ministers who advocated leaving all fell to their knees, "Please think twice, please think twice......"

Zhao Dongting pretended to be indignant and said: "If I retreat again and again, if I retreat again, I will be driven out of my land by the Yuan thief." ”

Lu Xiufu groaned a few times, and when he saw that Zhao Dongting would rather die than retreat, he asked out loud: "Does the emperor have a good strategy to retreat from the enemy?"

When Zhang Shijie heard this, he suddenly remembered what Zhao Dongting said to him a few days ago, and his eyes were also full of hope, and he said: "If the emperor really has a good strategy to retreat from the enemy, the minister is also willing to stay here and fight to the death with the Yuan army." ”

Su Liu Yi was in charge of the front division of the palace, and Zhang Shijie, as the privy deputy envoy, was the highest commander of the 20,000 sergeants on Qizhou Island.

Nominally, the Privy Counsellor even had the right to take charge of the nation's soldiers.

Zhao Dongting heard Zhang Shijie say this, and his heart was finally a little more comfortable. They haven't been afraid of the Yuan army to the point where they are afraid of it to the bones.

Su Liuyi saw that Zhang Shijie suddenly changed the direction of the wind and changed from fleeing to defending, but his face was full of puzzlement.

I just said I was leaving, why do you want to stay now?
