The empress had just left the early dynasty and received the second frontier urgent notice.

She immediately summoned the ministers again and entered the palace to discuss secretly.

The situation is getting worse faster than anyone could have imagined!

No one expected that the Northern Xinjiang Army would be so vulnerable, and Dong Weiwu's death caused an uproar in the government and the opposition, because Dong Weiwu was in the inferior Tiangang realm, but he died in the chaotic battle between the two armies.

Although the first fierce general of the Beirong Empire's Etulu Division, "Hei Wu Nai", who killed Dong Weiwu, is also a famous Tiangang Realm grandmaster of the Beirong Empire, but the two armies are facing each other, and they are not one-on-one to catch and kill, Dong Weiwu can't understand the impact of the commander's beheading on the army's morale, and the battle situation is unfavorable, why didn't he retreat? Take a step back and the sky will be wide, take a step back, even if a big battle is lost, he can gather the remnants of the army and make a comeback, why doesn't he retreat?

Or did he retreat, but still didn't escape?

The situation has deteriorated to the point where everyone feels tricky and unsolvable.

Even if it's Wu Xukuan...... He knew very well that the main force of the 100,000 troops of the Northern Xinjiang Army was killed and dispersed, and the Northern Xinjiang would no longer have the strength to resist the Beirong Empire, and the entire Northern Xinjiang would fall under the trampling of the Beirong Iron Cavalry.

The eight prefectures of northern Xinjiang have always been the strategic buffer zone between Dongqian and the Beirong Empire, the northern Xinjiang is vast and sparsely populated, and the cities are few and the people are few, but there are a large number of officials and prisoners, forced labor, and the so-called exile of 3,000 li or exile in the judicial punishment of the imperial court is ...... Northern Xinjiang was one of the places of exile.

Although there is no commendable humanities and economy in northern Xinjiang, there are large tracts of farmland, and the imperial court has been cultivating northern Xinjiang, and northern Xinjiang is also an important grain producing area in the north of the Eastern Qian Dynasty......

Of course, the most important thing is that the vast and sparsely populated northern Xinjiang blocked the Beirong Empire's coveting of the prosperous states of Dongqian.

The strategic importance is significant!

If the northern frontier is gone, then the Beirong Empire will have the ability to wave its troops to directly attack the first pass of the Dongqian Dynasty in the north - Yuxing Pass! After Yuxing Pass, there is no danger to defend in many states, all the way to Zhongzhou...... The northernmost part of Zhongzhou is the Sichuan River, which is the most important defensive barrier of Zhongzhou to the north!

******

On the second day of the lunar month, the empress spent her time listening to the civil and military quarrels of the Manchu Dynasty.

It stands to reason that if something like this happens, the imperial court will send troops!

But where to transfer troops, who will lead them, how to allocate supplies, and even whether to send troops, or whether to wait for news, these are all questions...... On the side of the generals, it can be said that the fighting spirit is raging, and many generals are willing to fight, while on the Wenchen side, the differences are very big.

The main question is where to transfer troops.

Some people suggested sending troops from Yuxing Pass, but some people immediately objected, although Yuxing Pass was garrisoned with 100,000 soldiers, and there was Rongcheng, the largest city in the north, behind Yuxing Pass, and Rongcheng was also stationed with 100,000 soldiers, and there was no shortage of troops.

However, once Yuxingguan sends troops, it is useless to send out twenty or thirty thousand, and if there are too many of them, the defense of Yuxingguan will be empty, and it will give the Beirong Empire an opportunity to take advantage of it, and there can be problems with anything, and there must be no problem in Yuxingguan, otherwise, the iron hooves of the Beirong Empire can drive straight into the hinterland of Donggan.

Quarrel! Quarrel! Or a quarrel!

Someone proposed to send troops, and naturally some people proposed to wait, Wu Xukuan was surprisingly silent on this matter, as if he had come to listen, but several henchmen and important ministers who followed him have expressed their thoughts one after another, they feel that the purpose of the Beirong Empire's invasion is to plunder, not to siege the city!

That's what the Beijon Empire did a few years ago! It's just that it hasn't gone overboard.

The Beijung Empire has repeatedly violated the border in recent years, and it is all in winter, and they are here to rob it, because they will not survive...... In the past few years, there have been many natural and man-made disasters in Dongqian, and there has been a great drought in the north, and the drought is not only in Dongqian, but also in the Beirong Empire in the north.

The Beijung Empire, established by nomads, depended on pastures for their survival, and under the great drought, the pastures were not lush, the grass was not enough to eat, and the cattle and sheep were not raised much, nor could they be fattened, and in winter, they had to starve to death!

In this era of farming, the common people relied on the sky for food.

Dong Qian.

The same is true for Beijon.

And what those people mean is that the Beirong Empire can't survive anymore, so they came to rob us, it's not that we don't resist, it's that now the Beijiang Army has been defeated, it's not that we can't send troops now, but the Beirong Empire is likely to loot in a circle, and they will evacuate, and when we send troops over, they have already left......

These words were said very euphemistically, and the final meaning was that there was no need to send troops, just wait and see! There is no need to mobilize the army at the expense of the people and money, just wait for them to retreat!

This......

Shame!

In addition to laughing angrily when she heard this, the empress was also deeply powerless!

She doesn't have the power of her mother, the Empress of Shendu, in the court, she can't control the court, too much power is not in her hands, what does she want to do, but she alone can't do anything, she can only watch the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, constantly quarrelling, constantly arguing......

The next few days.

Eight hundred miles of urgent battle reports continued to come from northern Xinjiang, and they could even be sent back several times a day.

Pang Nian, the deputy commander of the Northern Xinjiang Army, once gathered 50,000 remnants of the army, fought again with the main force of Beirong, and was defeated again! Pang Nian also died in battle! In just a few days, the Beirong Iron Cavalry traveled all over the eight states of northern Xinjiang, burning, killing and looting along the way, not occupying the city, not taking prisoners, just killing and killing, robbing and robbing......

The 60,000 strong soldiers of Beirong forced the total of 300,000 troops stationed in the northern Xinjiang of Donggan to kill and disperse several times.

No one can stop them.

And in the court, it is still ripping.

On the afternoon of the sixth day of the lunar month, the empress received the last battle report from the northern Xinjiang: 60,000 enemy soldiers of the Etulu Department of the Beirong Empire invaded our frontier, and for many days, they broke through the land of 54 counties in eight states in northern Xinjiang, burned and looted all the way, and the soldiers and civilians of northern Xinjiang rose up to resist, and finally drove the enemy army of Beirong out of Qishan Pass on the afternoon of the second day of the lunar month.

However, most of the enemy troops were cavalry...... Therefore, they still took away the materials they had looted for many days, and they took away 50,000 people from northern Xinjiang and withdrew from Qishan Pass together.

The Beijung Empire has retreated!

The battle report said that he was repulsed!

But as long as people in their right minds know that the Beirong Empire retreated on its own, the war report is just using "euphemistic" statements to explain the actual situation.

The Beirong Empire came and went fast this time, and it only took five or six days before and after, and it was really right by the ministers, they came to rob!

And at the end of that battle report, the generals of Northern Xinjiang were still asking the empress for instructions, whether to send troops out of the customs to pursue?!

When the empress saw the end, she directly tore up the battle report angrily!

Disgrace!

Shame!
