Sun Chengzong also had a relaxed look on his face after he finished speaking, he naturally knew the risks involved, but there was also the kind of good anger that although tens of millions of people were in the same place, the country was like this, so he had to make the same decision for Yu Qian in the year of Yingzong and Wen Tianxiang in the Song Dynasty.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was still excited, and continued to speak: "At this time, the rules of the ancestors must naturally be respected, but they must also use some new methods, they can't trap themselves to death, the righteousness of the DPRK and China has been fighting for decades, and now we should do something practical, you Aiqing, young people everywhere should be promoted unusually, this is a dangerous and difficult situation, dare to serve, dare to do things, must have the backbone and courage, it must not be bad, everyone must not talk about the suppression of seniority." ”

The words made everyone smile bitterly, or Sun Chuanting led everyone to get up and obey orders, taking advantage of this moment, Wei Zhongxian reminded a few words, this is the end of the game, what is the fight for righteousness, not doing practical things, what is the suppression of seniority, what is the backbone and courage, this is pointing at everyone's nose and scolding, but the situation was so difficult some time ago, it is not surprising that the Son of Heaven has anger in his heart.

But everyone also noticed the words of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, promoting young people from all over the world, plus the example of Sun Chuanting above, that is to say, after being admitted to the Jinshi, according to the rank, enter the Hanlin Academy, enter the department, enter the ministries, and go to the place, according to the merits to determine the future of the next few decades, the rules can be changed, and those who are not so high in the ranking, and who are studying their qualifications, can move forward and be promoted early, this arrangement, or rather, the benefits given by the Son of Heaven are unusual, you know, in this officialdom, A year earlier and a year later, it's too much worse. Moreover, the young people who are eligible to be promoted in various places are not everyone's children and protégés, and in this situation, if there is no one to take care of them, how can it be possible to have a smooth journey from the township test to the meeting test.

Thinking of this, the atmosphere of the court has become very good, and even Qingliu leaders like Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou are considering promoting the local Qingliu backbone to enrich the power of the court, which can be regarded as a great joy for everyone.

But at this moment, outside the court meeting, there was a sudden sound of the Han generals and the eunuchs on duty, and the sound of hurried footsteps, whether it was the monarch and the eunuchs in the house, or even the servants and clerks on duty, their faces changed greatly, this court meeting was in the palace, in the Forbidden City, in such a forbidden place, there were people running wildly, and they were not blocked, there is only one possibility, that is, there are hundreds of miles of urgent military reports, where is there a leak? Is it the Mongol tribes that went south? Or is it an invasion of the Jianzhou Jurchens? Or did the Xuzhou thieves come back again?

Although this military report that went straight to the forbidden state may also be the news of a great victory, it is just that there is erosion everywhere at the moment, and there may be a great victory there, and there may only be an accident.

"There are no rules, go and get the news in, what is the noise like!" Wei Zhongxian raised his voice and scolded, and someone outside answered loudly, and the hurried footsteps finally quieted down.

It didn't take long for the eunuch on duty at the door to hurry over with a letter, Wei Zhongxian didn't care about any measure, and asked in a low voice: "Long live the lord, do you want to read it here?" ”

The excitement and excitement of the Emperor of the Apocalypse just now disappeared, and after hesitating for a moment, he said weakly: "Who else can hide such news, read it, don't you read it?" ”

Wei Zhongxian nodded to the eunuch, and motioned for the other party to start reading the letter, the eunuchs who could be on duty here had all entered the inner study, so naturally they would not be illiterate.

The eunuch hurriedly agreed, and when he opened the letter, his face immediately changed, and everyone naturally saw this change, but at this time, everyone could still calm down.

"The Jurchen army is from Guangning to the east, and the seven castles of Jinzhou, Songshan, Daling River, Xiaoling River, Xingshan, Lianshan, and Tashan are not defended, and Ningyuan is in danger" The eunuch who read the urgent military newspaper read it to the end, his voice was already trembling, and the monarchs and ministers of the court meeting were dead silent.

Sun Chengzong and Wang Zaijin have changed their faces greatly, although the Ming Dynasty has stationed heavy troops in Liaozhen, but no one knows that they can only defend but not attack, and it is difficult to say whether they can defend or not, but now there is no possibility for the Jianzhou Jurchens to move forward.

Liaozhen has two centers of gravity, one is Guangning, the other is Shenyang and Liaoyang, these two are holding the key positions of Liaozhen, these two centers of gravity have been captured by the Jianzhou Jurchens, it is said that the most important place has been taken, and most of the whole territory has been controlled.

Because the operation of the army must rely on the waterway, Guangning is already the end of the waterway that Liaozhen can use, and then go west to Jinzhou, Songshan, Ningyuan line, can only rely on land transportation, if the army only relies on oxen, horses and carts to transport grain and grass materials, there is no stable water source, then there is no way to ensure the march within five days, let alone garrison siege.

But now, the Jianzhou Jurchen actually called over regardless of it, how could this be possible? If a series of important towns in western Liaoning are lost, then the next step is for the other party to enter Shanhaiguan and then coerce Jingshi, which is more troublesome than the coercion of Xuzhou thieves.

Sun Chengzong's face had darkened, and he said solemnly: "The Jianzhou Jurchens have a lot of ears and eyes, and the ministers lead the elite to the east to help, this movement must be known by the Tartars, and they will take advantage of the weakness to enter, Your Majesty, please send Lao Cheng to be a serious person, lead the army to rescue, for the sake of today, no matter what, you can't let the Tartars go further." ”

Before the Emperor of the Apocalypse could respond, Wang Zaijin, who had been silent, said in a sullen voice: "The elder of the pavilion built a fort in the area of Guanning, hoarded grain and grass, and the lower officials took the liberty to ask, Jinzhou and Songshan have not yet set up military stations and granaries?" The food hasn't been delivered yet, has it? ”

The reason why Wang Zaijin was dismissed was because he disagreed with Sun Chengzong on the armament and defense of Liaozhen, it is said that at this juncture, the last thing to open his mouth is Wang Zaijin, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was obviously suspected of provocation, as soon as he said this, everyone looked at it, and Sun Chengzong's face was also very ugly.

However, on this occasion, it is impossible to openly debate and attack, Sun Chengzong just said with a gloomy face: "This hoarding of military rations costs a lot of money, how can it be so easy to do, Jinzhou and Songshan are both fronts, and they haven't had time to transport military rations over." ”

Wang Zaijin nodded, and then said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there may be mistakes and omissions in this military situation, and it will take a few days and ten days to transmit the military information from Liaoxi to the Beijing Division, even if it is a fast horse and ten days of work, maybe when the military information is issued, the captives have already captured a few forts, but at this time the captives should have withdrawn." ”

"At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, I was cautious, how could I speculate and make judgments about such a military event." Zuo Guangdou frowned and reminded, Emperor of the Apocalypse and Wei Zhongxian looked over, and Sun Chengzong's face became even more ugly.

Wang Zaijin got up and explained: "Your Majesty, although the minister has not seen it in person, but he knows that the army is a common sense, the thieves need grain and grass to march, which must rely on the waterway, and Guangning to Jinzhou and Ningyuan are only by land, and the grain and grass of the thieves can't support it for so long, even if the city is laid, but if you can't loot too much grain and grass, it is impossible to support it for too long, so you can only retreat. ”

This is reasonable, everyone can understand it, but the people present are all smart people, Wang Zaijin said this truth, but everyone drew inferences, but Yang Lian got up and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Sun Ge Lao returned to Beijing to preside over the center, and Ji Liao also wants the old man to guard the commander, then Xiong Tingbi has always been deeply repentant in the edict prison, please Your Majesty be gracious, let him go to Liaozhen to make meritorious contributions?" ”

In the defeat of Liao Town, Xiong Tingbi burned all the grain and grass hoarded east of Shanhaiguan, which was one of the crimes at that time, and it was a crime that was particularly emphasized, after all, the huge cost of grain and grass was burned, and the relevant unrelated people could see it, but now Wang Zaijin analyzed it, everyone wanted to understand the meaning of what Xiong Tingbi did, so it was so, and the Jianzhou Jurchen Tatars could not be allowed to move forward by relying on the plundered military rations, which was not only not absurd, but also very wise.

is different from the situation of fierce party struggle back then, now everyone has no heart to fight, thinking about maintaining this leaky Ming Dynasty, as long as it makes sense, everyone will not think about any factional party fighting, they are all good.

Sun Chengzong's face is still not good-looking, you must know that he went to supervise the Liao Town of Jizhen, and the policy he adhered to was to build a fortress all the way, hoard enough grain and grass in it, and then gather the army to press over step by step along these soldiers, and Wang Zaijin said this, but it gave a shortcut to the Jianzhou Jurchen Tartars, and prepared military food and military funds for them, because the establishment of these fortresses is for prevention, but it can't prevent the Jurchen attack at all, so it makes no sense.

If it was placed in the past, even a person like Sun Chengzong who considered the overall situation had to fight, which was no different from pointing at his nose and scolding, but at this time, Sun Chengzong just sighed, and also got up and said: "Your Majesty, what Wang Shangshu said is reasonable, Liaodong does need an important minister to guard, and now there is no more suitable than Xiong Tingbi, please make your Majesty discretion." ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse, who was originally very nervous, angry and even desperate, had relaxed a lot after Wang Zaijin explained, just now he was worried that Sun Chengzong might not be able to erase this face, but he didn't expect everyone to reach an agreement quickly, he nodded with a smile and said, "That's it." ”

Several eunuchs standing behind the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Da Jue, either bowed their heads in contemplation, or exchanged glances with each other, they all had plans in their hearts, thinking that if the ministers behaved like this when the Long Live Lord ascended the throne, it was estimated that the Long Live Lord would not help Wei Zhongxian up, and everyone would not have the good life they have now
