Chapter 69: The Emperor's Dream

readx; Yun Zheng took the recital and looked at it again and said with a smile: "You have written everything else, but without yourself, no matter what credit do you have, if you remove those words that boast of me, it will be perfect." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

By the way, tell Your Majesty that the army is exhausted from repeated fierce battles, and needs to rest in Xijing City for two months, and when the east wind is strong, it will be time for us to march. ”

Chen Lin's originally smiling face immediately became gloomy, and he sighed and said, "I'm just worried about whether Your Majesty's dragon body can support until the beginning of spring next year!" ”

Yun Zheng was stunned for a moment and said, "Is the situation very bad?" ”

Chen Lin nodded and said, "Your Majesty wants me to tell you the real situation, and I can't force you to rush into the army, and you must decide whether to march or not according to the real situation on the battlefield."

Yehukou, although the battle of Xijing came quickly, the battle situation was like a meteor, and the soldiers had not rested for a moment in the past month, and it was a fact that they were exhausted.

However, the old man still had the courage to implore Yunhou to enter the army when he could enter the army, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it was really too hard, and now Your Majesty is alive is a great torment. ”

Yun Zheng dropped the piece in his hand and came to Chen Lin and said: "I know, I know, not only you, but even my own heart is like frying, but when it comes to entering the army, we still have to be cautious."

The battle of Xijing almost wiped out Xiao Dahu's department, and the reinforcements of the Liao people were waiting less than a thousand miles away from us, if it were not for the heavy snow blocking the traffic, we might not have to march at this time, but to prepare the city fortifications to meet the counterattack of the Liao.

Xiao Dahu died, and the government and opposition of the Liao State must have been shocked. After this battle, the focus of the Liao people's defense will probably shift from Di Qing to ours.

Our army was far away from the rear line of Yanmen Pass, and it was difficult to supply, and the heavy snow blocked the traffic of the Liao, and likewise blocked our communication. If it weren't for Cui Da stealing the grain of the Liao army, we wouldn't have the capital to continue the offensive at all. ”

Chen Lin, who eased his emotions, nodded and said: "The old man knows that the old man has already read the account books of the logistics three times, and our current reserves of gunpowder in addition to food are only forty percent of what they usually do, and the number of gunpowder shells and fierce fire oil reserves has reached the brink of crisis." The special ammunition was even more lost in the first battle of Yehukou, but the number of crossbow arrows and crossbow guns increased instead of decreasing.

The old man has calculated that our current weapons may only be able to support a battle of the scale of the wild fox mouth, otherwise. Our superiority in weapons will be lost. ”

Yun Zheng said with a smile: "If the princes of Yanyan in the court see us in such a situation, I am afraid they will be very happy, after all, this has proved that the current Great Song army will lose at least sixty percent of its combat power if it leaves logistics!" ”

Chen Lin also smiled bitterly and said: "The strength of the army itself has increased, and the reliance on famous generals is decreasing, so that the civilian army is no longer a joke on paper, as long as the staff general is qualified." If the soldiers are qualified, no matter who will lead the army to fight, it will not be too bad. ”

Yun Zheng smiled and looked at Chen Lin and said, "The basis of what you said is that the weapons and equipment of my Great Song Dynasty far exceed those of the surrounding neighbors.

In the final analysis, war is a contest between people, a contest between strengths. Once the Liao State and the Western Xia had a new breakthrough in equipment, under the same conditions, a battle-hardened general would be much stronger than a Confucian who could only talk on paper.

Therefore, the privy envoy can be a civil official, and I, the secretary of the military department, can also be a civil official, and even the left and right servants can also become a civil official.

The only thing that cannot be replaced by a civilian official is an officer who personally leads the troops into battle. Civilian officials can set military objectives and military objectives if they want to achieve them. It must be a professional military attachΓ©, otherwise there will definitely be a thing of being incompetent and exhausting thousands of troops. ”

Chen Lin nodded again and again when he heard this. These days in the army, although he can't understand the battle of the large army, he is no longer the eunuch who knows nothing about the army.

Yun Zheng and Chen Lin get along very happily, soldiers, as long as they have participated in the battle together, they will immediately have a sense of identity, not to mention that Chen Lin has never arbitrarily interfered with Yun Zheng's command since he entered the Jingxi Army, and he has never used the power of supervising the army once.

This is what Yun Zheng wants to see, when he was in Yanmen Pass, the Jingxi Army was divided into many factions by the imperial court, just like those literati groups, each faction has its own position, and now, after fierce battles, Yun Zheng has rebuilt the Jingxi Army into a monolith.

On a clear day, the north wind howled, and the cold snap took away the hustle and bustle of the battlefield, and also brought the coldness and killing of the battlefield to a distant place.

The blood that had gathered in the hollows had now been frozen into red and bewitching ice, and the blood stains that had fallen on the sand had faded to their bright colors, and were black like patches on the desolate Gobi in the north.

Zhao Zhen woke up from his dream and looked at the north habitually, although there was a thick curtain and solid walls in front of him, and even a continuous mountain barrier, his gaze seemed to penetrate all this, and fell straight on Xijing City, which had just stopped fighting.

"I dreamed that my soldiers were shouting and climbing the city wall, and the sky was full of dense rain of arrows and stones, oh, and gunpowder bombs, every gunpowder bomb exploded, and the Liao people planted it from the city, and the war there was already raging......

I saw Yun Zheng, he had turned into a white-fronted tiger and attacked the Liaoren city again and again, and Chen Lin, hehe, turned out to be a leprosy-skinned old dog, he didn't have the ability to attack, so he stood behind the tiger and barked...... Hehe, it seems that the battle in Xijing City is almost over. ”

Zou Tong tried to translate the emperor's meaning completely with tears, and even Pang Ji, who was guarding the palace day and night, was now moist in his eyes.

He said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, what you said is very right, Yun Zheng is a man-eating tiger, with him in Xijing, this city will definitely be conquered!" Xiao Dahu is probably also in danger. ”

A hint of flushing appeared on Zhao Zhen's skeletal face, and he blinked at Zou Tong a few times.

Zou Tong immediately knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, by all means, now is the time when the north wind is raging, you have just woken up, your body is hot, you must not open the north window." ”

Pang Ji asked in wonder, "Why does Your Majesty have to open the north window?" ”

Zou Tong whispered: "Your Majesty will always order the old slave to open the north window when the weather is good these days, saying that he wants to smell the bloody smell from the north!" ”

"This must not be done again!" After Pang Ji reprimanded Zou Tong sharply, he said to Zhao Zhen warmly: "Your Majesty, since my Great Song Dynasty raised a falcon, the transmission of thousands of miles is just a matter of breathing, if the battle of Xijing is over, Yun Zheng will definitely release the falcon to deliver the news of victory and defeat to Yanmen Pass, and then send it back to Tokyo with a falcon from Yanmen Pass, such a message now only takes one day and one night, and Chen Lin's detailed report will also arrive in five days, you must not be touched by emotion and do something that hurts the dragon body." ”

Zhao Zhen's eyes were full of smiles, Zou Tong received the emperor's instructions, and now he was very familiar with the emperor's thoughts, he opened his mouth and said: "I need to give myself a hope, otherwise I won't have the strength to survive the new day."

I have a feeling that Yun Zheng's message is coming, and it won't be wrong, so tell me as soon as I arrive. ”

As soon as Zou Tong's words fell, the bells and drums on the Wufeng Tower rang out in unison, and the eunuch's sharp voice and the voice of the roll call had already come in-"The privy envoy Han Qi has come to meet you!" ”

Pang Ji glanced at the emperor in surprise, the bells and drums of Wufenglou are only used to tell the time on weekdays, and they are the national weapons of Huanghuang, unless the country has a big happy event or a big alarm signal will be played in the time when it is not a time, the alarm signal is urgent and anxious, and the happy event is calm and grand.

The sound of bells and drums heard now is a grand sound that is not in a hurry, perhaps because of the mood, even an old and serious person like Pang Ji can hear a trace of joy.

The emperor's forehead was bruised, obviously not out of anger but because of excitement, his eyes stared at Zou Tong, Zou Tong jumped up from the small stool, and said in a loud voice: "Quickly pass, quickly pass, Your Majesty summons the privy envoy Han Qi!" ”

Walked too quickly, accidentally got mixed by the robe, lying on the ground, still stretching out his arms to urge the eunuch to hurry up, Han Qi invited in.

The courtyard of the imperial hospital guarding the emperor's side was hurriedly holding the emperor's pulse, and another imperial physician combed the emperor's head and neck with his hands, so as not to let the emperor's blood go up.

Pang Ji couldn't help but stand up, leaning on the thick fire dragon pillar and roaring at Zou Tong: "There is a full mile from the Daqing Hall here, do you want Your Majesty to wait?" At this time, you don't need to take Han Qi in with the imperial horse, when will you wait? ”

Zou Tong even kicked and beat the eunuchs in the palace and blasted them out, asking them to take Han Qi into the palace in the shortest possible time.

Zhao Zhen saw that Zou Tong had already gone to run errands, and under the massage of the imperial doctor, the bruised muscles slowly calmed down, and there was a smile in his eyes again.

When Han Qi entered the palace, he almost used to run, but this guy could maintain his graceful posture even if he was walking quickly, and Zou Tong who was following him was running and jumping like a monkey.

Before entering the main hall, Han Qi said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Yun Zheng Kexijing!" ”

Knowing that this was the result, Zhao Zhen and Pang Ji still felt that a boulder in their hearts had landed, and Zou Tong hurriedly asked instead of the emperor without waiting for his breath to even: "How much do you kill the enemy?" Self-destructive geometry? ”

Han Qi took out a strip of cloth from his arms and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, my general Yun Zheng Xijing beheaded Xiao and Tigers in a battle, beheading more than 100,000 people, even if it is a Liao person who fled into the wasteland, because there is no food, there are more than one person who can return to Zhongjing Dao alive." ”

Pang Ji asked in surprise: "Why is the record so outstanding?" ”

Han Qi shook his head with a smile and said, "I don't know, but this urgent news has the seal of the general Yun Zheng, the military supervisor Chen Lin, and the transfer envoy Wang Anshi!" ”

Zhao Zhen let out a long breath, only to feel that his chest was extraordinarily comfortable, and only Zou Tong could read those words from the emperor's trembling lips and flushed eye sockets...... I know...... (To be continued)
