Chapter 725: The King of the South and the King of the North

Seeing the ministers walking into the main hall, the Empress Dowager Chu Garlic said softly: "Ladies and gentlemen, these are the twists and turns of the generals in the army, you should take a good look!" After speaking, he motioned to the eunuch beside him and handed the fold to a few important ministers.

Several important ministers of the dynasty took over the folds, looked through them, and saw that the generals under Hua'an actually asked for Hua'an to be crowned king, and Hua'an himself had this meaning, and put forward a request for independence in fact, and was shocked, and the beads of sweat on his forehead kept dripping down.

"The Queen Mother, Hua'an instigated his subordinates to make such a request, and his resentment has been completely exposed, so he should immediately cut off his position as a general and be escorted back to Jiankang City to punish the crime." One of the ministers said loudly.

"No, by all means, there are hundreds of thousands of troops in Hua'an, and the generals under his command all support him as king, and there are a few generals who threaten to enter Jiankang City, if the court is too persecuted, I am afraid that it will cause stricter consequences!" Another minister immediately objected.

Hearing this, Chu Lianzi looked at the ministers and said dissatisfiedly: "The mourning family has long said that everything should not be rushed, but you Aiqing strongly requested to send many children of the scholar clan to go deep into Guanzhong, and caused the main army in front of the near mutiny. ā€

"The ministers are guilty, please punish the Queen Mother." The ministers hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Chu Lianzi waved her hand and asked the ministers to get up, she naturally would not cure the sins of the ministers, after all, in the Great Jin court, the officials of the scholar clan held the actual control power, but they respected the royal family of the Jin court on the surface with the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers. Chu Lianzi definitely can't punish all of them, and she can't cure them, even if she convicts one of them, she must agree to all the other Shi clan officials, otherwise, her will is just empty words.

The ministers in the main hall and Chu Lianzi knew very well that it was the inappropriate actions of those scholars and officials who violated the interests of the front-line soldiers, which caused changes in the army, and then gave Hua'an an an excuse to claim the throne. But. At this moment, everything has already happened, and there is no point in complaining, at this moment. Immediate countermeasures must be taken. to solve this tricky matter.

"Since General Hua is asking for the throne. The mourning family plans to be canonized immediately, what do you think of Aiqing? Seeing that none of the ministers spoke, Chu Garlic asked softly.

"Queen Mother. I'm afraid that this is not in line with the etiquette law, if such a poor child can be crowned king, wouldn't it be a mess of the Gangchang etiquette law, which makes the court sergeant clan how to deal with themselves, no, no! A minister objected vehemently.

Another minister said: "It is indeed not in accordance with the law of etiquette to make General Hua the king, but if it is not sealed, will General Hua follow Ran Min and claim the emperor in Yecheng to stand on his own?" If this is the case, the threat to my Dajin will be even greater. ā€

"Yes! If General Ruohua established himself as the emperor according to Yecheng and fought against the imperial court, how could it be good. Chu Garlic said worriedly, although Hua Anjin presented the jade seal of the country, so that Chu Garlic felt that Hua An had no objection, but Hua An's actions at this time showed that Hua An was already opposed, and for this reason, she was worried.

"The Queen Mother, Hua'an has a lot of soldiers and horses, if he really wants to rebel, I only have General Huan Wen and General Yin Hao in Dajin, and I can fight against it, at this moment, I should immediately send a messenger to ask the opinions of the two generals to make the next decision." A minister built yƬ said.

"Yes, yes, yes, immediately ask General Huan and General Yin's opinions." The ministers said together.

Chu Lianzi nodded and agreed: "How did the mourning family forget the master of the horse and General Yin, these two are the pillars of my Great Jin!" ā€

"Report, Empress Dowager Qi, send an expedited twist from the direction of Xiangyang." At this moment, a small colonel of the Wuyi Battalion rushed into the main hall and reported with his fists clenched.

"The folds sent from the direction of Xiangyang must be something important to report, so submit it quickly." Chu Garlic hurriedly ordered.

When the Wuyi Battalion Colonel heard the order, he immediately handed over the urgent report in his hand to Chu Garliczi.

Seeing that it was Huan Wen's handwriting on the fold, Chu Garlic nodded happily, and immediately opened it to read.

"Queen Mother, what did General Huan do?" Seeing that Chu Garlic was so shocked that her face was pale, the ministers hurriedly asked.

Chu Lianzi took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Huan Ju immediately played the imperial court and asked to canonize General Hua as the king." After speaking, let the eunuch beside him hand the fold in his hand to the ministers.

When the ministers heard this, they all couldn't believe it, they didn't believe it was true, they didn't understand why Huan Wen suddenly supported Li Huaan as king, this was too unreasonable.

"Could it be that General Huan is frightened by General Hua's strength and is afraid."

"General Huan and General Hua, will they have colluded?"

"It must have been colluded, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to send the notes almost at the same time, and they were all the same content."

Several ministers of the court began to discuss loudly.

Chu Lianzi looked at the ministers and said loudly: "Don't guess Aiqing, in the opinion of the mourning family, it is Huan who also wants to be the king, but he didn't say it explicitly." ā€

"General Huan also wants to be the king, how can the Queen Mother know." A minister hurriedly asked.

Chu Lianzi replied softly: "Huan Juma praised General Hua's exploits in the play, and built a canonization of General Hua as the king, and once the imperial court canonized General Hua as the king of the north, the king of the north is above 10,000 people under one person, in order to balance the king of the north, the court is bound to canonize another king, with the strength of the generals of the Great Jin Dynasty, the only one who can balance the king of the north is Huan Juma, so the court must canonize the two kings at the same time, so that they can balance each other, so that the court of the Great Jin Dynasty can barely maintain." ā€

When the ministers heard this, they suddenly realized and nodded approvingly.

"In this way, this king of the north must be canonized, so why should Huan Ma be crowned?" A minister asked.

Chu Garlic replied softly: "Corresponding to the king of the north, it is naturally the king of the south, and the mourning family decided to canonize Huan Horse as the king of the south to balance the power of the king of the north, so that the Great Jin Dynasty can be kept peaceful for at least twenty years." ā€

"Queen Mother Shengming, this can only be the case now." Seeing that Huan Wen and Hua'an both had the intention of being kings, the ministers no longer objected, but approved of the matter.

Subsequently, Chu Lianzi officially issued an edict to canonize Hua'an as the king of the north and Huan Wen as the king of the south, and immediately sent envoys to Yecheng and Xiangyang respectively to convey the official canonization order to the two.

#####

In the direction of Bingzhou, the Daiguo army led by Tuoba Shi Yijian, after arriving at Dingxiang City, had a fierce battle with the army under the command of Yang An and Zhang Oy, and broke the cavalry of the Jin army and occupied Dingxiang City.

Subsequently, the victorious main army of Daiguo, with the momentum of victory, launched a pursuit of the fleeing Jin cavalry, and clashed with the Jin cavalry many times along the way, each time it was a big break of the Jin army, and a small victory.

The army of the country repeatedly broke the main cavalry of the Jin army, which made Tuoba Shi Yijian and the generals under his command, have a light enemy's heart, they believe that the Jin army's military heart has completely collapsed, has become a vulnerable weak brigade, for this reason, boldly sent 30,000 light cavalry, at the fastest speed to pursue the Jin army, with the intention of annihilating a large number of Jin army main force, in order to expand the results.

Under the order of Tuoba Shi Yijian, the light cavalry of the 30,000 generations pursued the fleeing Jin cavalry at the fastest speed.

In the direction of Yuxian, Xie Ai has already let the main force of 60,000 infantry who arrived in advance set up an ambush at a suitable position, and is ready to concentrate all the 100,000 troops.

Of course, the essence of this battle is a quick battle, after all, the army under the command of Tuoba Shiyi is cavalry, after the arrival of the light cavalry, the main cavalry will not be far away, if the battle process is too long, once the main cavalry of the country arrives, the consequences will be more severe.

In a small valley ten miles north of Yuxian County, the main force of Xie Ai and his 60,000 infantry has been ambushed in place, and 40,000 cavalry are also entering the formation one after another.

Through the scout's investigation, Xie Ai knew that there were 30,000 cavalry in the forward of the country, so there was still a lot of pressure in his heart, after all, the main army was unstable at the moment, and it was unknown how much combat effectiveness could be exerted.

For this reason, Xie Ai ordered that once the forward cavalry of the Daiguo entered the encirclement, the 20,000 cavalry under the command of Zhang Hao took the lead in attacking, and then the rest of the soldiers and horses quickly pressed up, and inflicted heavy losses on the vanguard cavalry of the Daiguo with absolute superiority.

After the cavalry under the command of Yang An and Zhang Hao arrived at the ambush area, the vanguard cavalry of the Daiguo was not far away, and Xie Ai asked the army under his command to do a good job of ambush, and the target must not be exposed.

In less than half an hour, the vanguard cavalry of the Daiguo began to enter the valley, and marched quickly without alertness, seemingly completely ignoring the fact that the main force of the Jin army would set up an ambush, which is no wonder, in many battles, all ended in the defeat of the Jin army, in the hearts of the soldiers of the Daiguo, the Jin army is already a team that is disheartened and collapsed at the touch of a button, and such a team will only take care of fleeing for their lives, how can they stay and set up an ambush? Moreover, the slopes on both sides of the valley here were gentle, and the cavalry could gallop towards the top of the hill, so they were not afraid of an ambush.

"General, the Daiguo cavalry has entered the valley, give the order to attack!" Zhang Oyster shouted for his life.

Xie Ai waved his hand and said softly: "Don't worry, it's not too late to attack when the enemy cavalry has passed thirty percent." ā€

The cavalry of the Dai army marched very fast, and it was not long before thirty percent of the soldiers and horses crossed the valley.

Xie Ai immediately made a decision and ordered: "Beat the drum and march and inflict heavy damage on the enemy." After that, I went to play the drums myself.

"Knock knock knock ......" dozens of drums made a deafening drum sound at the same time.

"Attack, kill ......" Zhang Hao first led the cavalry under his command to kill the vanguard cavalry of the country.

"Kill, attack ......" Immediately afterwards, all the soldiers and horses of the Jin army killed together. (To be continued......)
