Chapter 727: I Want to Go North

Fan Yunao, the secretary of the military department, hesitated slightly, and finally came out and said: "The meaning of the saint is to send more troops to Linyang Pass, so as to give the Wei army a certain deterrent, so that the Wei army does not dare to be too rampant?" ”

He is the head of the military department, and it is a matter of military affairs, so he naturally wants to say a few words.

The emperor smiled faintly and said, "Fan Aiqing's words can be said to be right or wrong!" ”

"Please also show me the Holy Lord!"

The emperor touched his beard and said: "Shang Zhongli has put the bet on Longshan, the main force of the Qing army is now also deployed in Longshan, and Sima Qingtian is probably also betting on Longshan now." The battle between these two people in Longshan was actually equivalent to the decisive battle between Wei and Qing. If the Wei army captures Longshan, then Qingguo will definitely fall into a crisis...... And once Longshan is broken, the morale of the Qing army will inevitably be rubbed, and the morale of its northeast army will also be hit, at that time, the northern barbarians rode in the north, and the Wei army rode in the south, these two powerful cavalry regiments attacked from both sides, with the strength of the Qingguo people, I am afraid that they will not be able to resist. ”

Fan Yunao nodded and said, "What the Holy Lord said is extremely true, and the current situation is like this. Shang Zhongli spent huge manpower and financial resources to fortify Longshan, and concentrated the main force on the front line of Longshan, which was obviously to block the enemy under Longshan. According to Weichen's view, Shang Zhongli also knew that with Qingguo's current strength, if he wanted to deal with the attack of the Wei army and the Northern Barbarians at the same time, it would be more than auspicious, but he also knew a truth, as long as the southern front blocked the Wei army and finally forced the Wei army to withdraw, the Northern Barbarians would inevitably withdraw their troops, ......! ”

Xiao Wanchang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, shook his head and said: "Fan Shangshu, although Shang Zhongli is a famous general in the world, if he wants to rely on Longshan to force back hundreds of thousands of Wei tigers and wolves, it is not easy!" ”

Fan Yunao nodded and said, "What Xiao Shangshu said is that this matter is indeed very difficult, but it is not impossible. He smiled slightly and said: "Back then, Emperor Wuwang sent troops from Wu County, attacked Qing and encountered an ambush, retreated to Zhuanshui Pass, and the Qing army tripled its strength to attack Zhuanshui Pass, and in the end didn't he return with a feather?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers all nodded, although it was a retreat, but in the end, they blocked the Qingjun land with several times the strength of the army outside the Zhuanshui Pass, which is also something that the Yan country is proud of.

"Shang Zhongli stuck to Longshan this time, and he may also have the heart to live and die with Longshan." Fan Yunao said solemnly: "The success or failure of Qingguo, in Shang Zhongli's opinion, may be a battle in Longshan. ”

The emperor smiled: "What Fan Aiqing said won my heart. Shang Zhongli is good at guarding, Sima Qingtian is good at attacking, these two are fighting in Longshan, losing each other, but I am also happy to see. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers laughed.

No matter who it is, it is always a good thing to see Wei Qing consuming each other.

"It's just that now the strength of the Wei army is obviously stronger than the Qing army, although Shang Zhongli is capable, but ...... After all, it was Sima Qingtian who was facing, but I was worried, what if the Wei army really broke through Longshan? The emperor touched his beard, glanced at the ministers, and said calmly: "Therefore, I feel that although I don't have to send troops, I want the people of Wei to feel our pressure, so that they will not devote all their energy to attacking Longshan...... I want them to devote some of their energy to deal with my Dayan, so that the war of attrition between Wei Qing in Longshan will inevitably last longer......! ”

"Fan Aiqing just said that he wanted to increase troops at Linyang Pass, and I also said that this is both true and wrong." The emperor smiled faintly and said, "Yes, if you want to make the Wei army feel the pressure, my Dayan really has to send someone to Linyang Pass...... If someone is sent over, the Wei army will be worried in his heart, and he must divide his energy to guard against my Dayan. But I will not send tens of thousands of troops to Linyang Pass, and the labor army will lose money ......! ”

The courtiers were very puzzled for a while, since they wanted to increase the pressure on the Wei army in the rear, but they did not increase the troops at Linyang Pass, what should they do?

The emperor seemed to be very satisfied with the doubts of the courtiers, and said calmly: "I have been thinking about this matter for the past two days, but last night the prince proposed a good method to me, which is deeply in line with my intentions!" ”

The ministers were even more surprised, all along, Prince Yan has been like an invisible person, for so many years, he has never been to the court once, let alone participated in political affairs, and in the hearts of many people, they have even forgotten the existence of Prince Yan.

At this time, when the emperor mentioned Prince Yan, everyone suddenly remembered that in this deep palace, there was also a prince of Yan Kingdom.

Hearing that the crown prince actually proposed a strategy to the emperor, this surprised the courtiers, but also had all kinds of thoughts, most of them were thinking: "Could it be that after the prince's wedding, his temperament has changed, and he is ready to participate in court affairs?" ”

Some people even thought: "The prince is the prince after all, but the future emperor, and it is normal for him to participate in court affairs." I'm afraid that it was the saint who saw the prince's wedding, so he deliberately pulled the prince out...... He always wants to raise a successor! ”

After being surprised, the loyal ministers wanted to know what kind of strategy His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who saw the head and the tail of the divine dragon, would have.

Taishi Xiao, who was as immobile as a mountain, and Han Xuandao, who looked calm, both frowned slightly at this time.

"The prince asked me that he would like to go to Linyang Pass to inspect it." The emperor said calmly: "If the crown prince arrives in Linyang County, I think that it will be more pressure on the people of Wei than sending tens of thousands of elite soldiers, right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the courtiers were shocked.

The court was extremely silent for a while, but there was not the slightest sound on the huge Jinluan Palace.

The Emperor looked at Taishi Xiao and asked, "Taishi, what do you think of the strategy proposed by the prince?" ”

Taishi Xiao's expression had calmed down, he stood up tremblingly, bowed to the emperor and said, "Back to the saint, the old minister thinks that this move must not be done!" ”

The emperor frowned and said, "Why? ”

"Holy Lord, the crown prince is the prince of the country, the body of a daughter. Now that the border war is in full swing, the dark officials of Wei and Qing will also be active in the border area, which is dangerous, and the prince must not risk his daughter's body. Taishi Xiao said solemnly.

The emperor said slowly: "What does the Taishi mean, is this move not feasible?" ”

Taishi Xiao immediately said: "The strategy proposed by the prince is a good way. Although the old minister is just a courtier, he doesn't need the body of the prince's daughter, but if the saint agrees, the old minister is willing to go to Linyang Pass, and the Wei people will be afraid when they see the old minister arrive at the border pass! ”

He was telling the truth.

Xiao Taishi is an important minister of Yan State, if Xiao Taishi appears in Linyang Pass, the Wei people will definitely be surprised, and they will definitely think that there must be some action on the Yan side.

Su Guanya, who had always been extremely calm in the court, suddenly appeared at this time, and said respectfully: "Qiqi Sheng, the Taishi is very old, and now it is late autumn and winter, this road is extremely difficult, and the environment at the border pass is extremely bad. Taishi is an important minister in the court, a pillar of the country, if there is a mistake, it is a big bad! ”

Su Guanya came out to say this, which made the courtiers feel weird.

The Su family and the Xiao family are old rivals, and the enmity between the two sides is probably deeper than the hostility between the Han family and the Xiao family.

Taishi Xiao frowned, but he quickly laughed, and said to Su Guanya: "Thank you Lord Su for your concern." However, state affairs are important, if the old minister can share the worries of the saint, even if this old bone is lost at the border, there is no regret! ”

The emperor pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "What Su Aiqing said is extremely true, Taishi, you are old, and you can't go to this pass." The prince pleaded with me to go to the border pass, but after much thought, I decided to let him go. After all, Linyang Pass is where my Dayan heavy troops are, and Xiao Huaiyu is sitting there, the prince goes, Xiao Huaiyu can protect the prince Zhouquan. On this way, escorted by the Royal Guards, it should be fine! ”

Taishi Xiao still wants to persuade again, and the emperor has already waved his hand and said: "Taishi doesn't need to say anything. Although the prince is the prince, he is also a Yan person, and it is natural for him to contribute to the country. And precisely because he is the prince of the country, he should have more experience, go to the border pass, and he must be able to get some experience. After coughing, he said: "The inner Imperial Forest Army cannot be moved, and the three outer Imperial Forest Troops can be adjusted to escort the prince to the border pass!" ”

The emperor pondered for a moment, and finally said: "I originally wanted to give an order and Su Yuting led the Fengxiang battalion to accompany me, but a few days ago, I heard that Su Yuting fell from his horse and was injured?" ”

Su Guanya immediately said: "Back to the saint, the dog is now recuperating in the mansion...... He was unwell that day, and he fell from his horse, breaking his spine and unable to sit up...... In the past two days, he has improved slightly, but he can get up with the help of others. After a pause, Zhengse said: "If the saint orders that the dog will lead the troops to escort him, it is the glory of the dog, and if he can't get up, he will also go by order!" ”

The emperor waved his hand and said, "If you can't get up, how can you protect the crown prince?" That's it, since his injuries have not healed, he should take care of them. After a pause, he finally said: "Spread my will, and Han Mo will lead the leopard battalion to escort you to ...... He happens to be the director of the West Flower Hall, and he brought some flower hall officials with him on this trip to protect him secretly! ”

In fact, everyone also guessed that in the outer three camps, Changde Hou Cao Yingui was the marquis, so he would naturally not go out of Beijing to escort him easily, and the remaining Fengxiang camp and Leopard Battalion, originally Su Yuting's Fengxiang camp was the most suitable, but now that Su Yuting's injury has not healed, it can only be Han Mo.

Han Xuanchang frowned, but since the emperor had issued an order, he naturally couldn't come out to oppose it.

It's just that he thinks it's a bit weird.

Su Yuting was not injured early or late, why did he fall off his horse and be injured on the eve of the prince's patrol? Moreover, Su Yuting is a martial arts master who can be counted in Yan Kingdom, how can he be so easily injured?

Han Xuandao was looking at his nose and nose, and his face was expressionless.
