Chapter 292 Please appoint a prince to consolidate the country

"Your Majesty is angry..... Now Wei Youqu has done its best to get the right Beiping land, but can not break through the Guangcheng portal, it can be seen that the right Beiping is too guarded by the mountain still has the power to resist, as long as Guangcheng is still there, Wei Youqu will not be able to drive straight in, and now the top priority is to send troops to reinforce Guangcheng. Super fast and stable update, this article is played by the first "Sang Hong Yang out of the column, such a big defeat of the Han Dynasty has indeed not eaten for a long time, since it has been a big defeat only to find a way to make up for it, the only thing to be thankful for at present is that the city of Guangcheng is still there.

"Where are the troops now?" Emperor Wu of Han thought for a moment, and asked the courtiers a little decadently.

"At present, only the 90,000 army of Youfufeng can be mobilized...... Sang Hongyang also replied helplessly, he knew that the emperor did not want to move and stabilize the 90,000 army, but in addition to this army, it was really difficult for the Han to find other armies.

Originally, there were some Praetorian Guards garrisons in the Chang'an Palace, but after half a year of the Guard-making Prince's Rebellion, these troops were either killed in battle or beheaded afterwards. Now in Chang'an, in addition to the thousands of people in the southern army led by Huo Yan who are responsible for defending the emperor, there are only less than 10,000 people in the three auxiliary lieutenants.

"Then send a message to the second division general...... Let him send troops to Beiping right....... "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had to make this helpless decision, compared to preventing possible situations, the current predicament has to be faced.

Soon, a decree ordering Li Guangli to lead his troops to Youzhou was sent out of Weiyang Palace. Li Guangli received the order of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and began to set up camp to prepare for Youbeiping, but when his army had not yet left the land of Gyeonggi, a military intelligence from Shangjun was sent to Chang'an City in the middle of the night.

The giant bell of Weiyang Palace did not ring because of Xun Yu's defeat, but it still resounded throughout Chang'an City that night, and the sound was so harsh and depressing.

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty saw the military intelligence from Shangjun, he almost fell headlong in front of him. Seeing that Emperor Wu of Han was about to fall, Huo Yan stepped forward and held Emperor Wu of Han's body, but the military information in Emperor Wu of Han's hand had slipped from his hand and fell on the floor of Weiyang Palace.

Zhang Anshi took two steps forward and leaned over to pick up the general's feelings. He didn't know the above content yet, and he glanced at it curiously when he picked it up, Zhang Anshi had already practiced the ability to look at a glance and ten lines, this military content was not long, and in the process of picking it up, Zhang Anshi had basically finished reading the above content.

I didn't know if I didn't know and was startled, but when I knew the content of the military situation, Zhang Anshi, who has always been a steady person, trembled unconsciously.

"Convene the ministers to declare the meeting of the palace." Zhang Anshi's hand had not yet been handed to Emperor Wu of Han, and Emperor Wu of Han, who had already breathed a sigh of relief, said tiredly.

In the Xuanshu Palace, it can no longer be described as gloomy and bleak, although Chang'an at this moment is moonlit and starry, but in the hearts of all the courtiers and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is a storm and a storm......

"Shangjun is too guarded to report urgently..... Former general Lu Bode led an army of 100,000 to garrison Wuyuan. Xiongnu Shan Yu led his troops to bypass the defense lines of Shuofang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang and Yanmen to attack Xihe County. The former general led his troops out of Wuyuan to return to the West River, but this was actually a plan for the Huns to attack the west. Before the former general arrived in Hexi County, the Xiongnu Youxian King led an army of 80,000 to attack Wuyuan County at night, and Wuyuan was lost in the night. The Xiongnu set up an ambush in Uwei in Guluo, the former general fought day and night, the Xiongnu right Xianwang led the army to arrive, and the former general committed suicide in defeat under the front and rear attacks. Now the defense lines of Shuofang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang and Yanmen have been broken, and the 200,000 Xiongnu army is approaching Fushi, and there is no danger to defend north of Chang'an......"

Zhang Anshi's voice echoed in the Xuanshu Palace, Shuofang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, Dingxiang, and Yanmen defense lines were like a chain across the northern front line of the Han Dynasty, which had been built for hundreds of years and had long been impregnable. But no one thought that the Xiongnu were no longer the barbarian race that only knew about barbaric plundering and rampage, and this nation on horseback had also begun to learn the strategies and art of war of the Han people, and they had not copied and used them, they already knew how to use various strategies in an interlocking manner. And the veteran Lubod, also fell into the hands of the Huns who used stratagem.

Shangjun County Zhifu Shi is already the last barrier north of Chang'an, and it is Hedong County, which is subordinate to the Sili School Captain's Department.

"How's that for good? Now that the smoke is everywhere, the imperial court has no soldiers available..... "Some ministers are in a state of war, and their speech is already a little unfavorable. The Huns crossed the defense line of Wuyuan Yunzhong, and even Xihe County fell, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they are directly approaching Chang'an.

"Your Majesty, please immediately issue an order to let the headquarters of the Second Division General go north, and the Chang'an portal must not be lost......" The first person to speak this time was Zongzheng Liu Anguo, the uncle of the Han Emperor.

Lao Zongzheng is a real long-lived person, he is older than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and now he is generally not much in the court, but his status and prestige are unmatched in both the royal family and the imperial court.

"Your Majesty, Lao Zongzheng's words are reasonable..... Right Beiping Guangcheng is still there, and there is still room for turnaround. But as soon as the Huns were thrown away, the iron cavalry of the Huns could go straight to the land of Gyeonggi. Sang Hongyang also hurriedly went out to echo.

"Decree that the general of the second division will be stationed in the garrison. In addition, let's discuss how to deal with the offensive of Youzhou and the Xiongnu! Emperor Wu of Han leaned on the imperial couch with one hand and said with his body propped up. He only had time to say the will to transfer Li Guangli to the north, and what to do later was directly left to the courtiers.

"Bring the medicine to .....," Emperor Wu of Han stretched out one hand to Su Wen at his side, and said in a low voice. It's not that he doesn't want to continue to discuss with his ministers, but his body really can't support it.

Su Wen hurriedly beckoned to the attendant behind him, and then a delicate wooden box was handed to Su Wen. He carefully opened the wooden box, and inside was a red as blood, only the size of a broad bean, lying quietly in the wooden box.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is here....." Su Wen brought the wooden box to Emperor Wu of Han, who couldn't wait to pick up the pill with his trembling fingers and put it in his mouth with difficulty. Then he closed his eyes, and then the whole person leaned on the imperial couch, and soon Emperor Wu of Han's originally pale face began to flush, and a sickly intoxication also appeared on his face.

The courtiers in the Xuanshu Hall all saw this scene, but no one dared to say anything. Even Liu Anguo only frowned, as an old man who had passed his prime, Liu Anguo knew in his heart that the emperor's move was to quench his thirst, but as a courtier of the Han Dynasty, as the elder of the clan and the uncle of the emperor, he could only let the emperor go on like this, because the country still needed this emperor.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was recovering with his eyes closed after taking the pill, and His Royal Highness's courtiers also began to discuss with each other. In the face of this imperial catastrophe that has not been encountered for decades, these long-term and high-ranking Han ministers finally showed their value, and some good proposals began to appear, and the prime minister and the imperial historian, who were the leaders of the foreign dynasties, were leading the courtiers to begin to draw up a complete set of plans.

The morning sun rose slowly, and a touch of brilliance sprinkled into the crack in the door of the Xuanmuro Hall. At this time, many people realized that the court had been going on from midnight to early morning.

"Do you have a good plan?" Emperor Wu of Han also woke up leisurely after resting for two hours.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have already drawn up some plans, please ask Your Majesty to decide." Zuo Prime Minister Liu Quyu, as the nominal leader of the foreign dynasty, came out to reply.

"Hurry up." Emperor Wu of Han sat up slightly and cheered up.

Liu Quyu cleared his throat, and then bowed to Emperor Wu of Han and said, "After deliberation, the ministers and others unanimously feel that there are two things to do at the moment. One is to mobilize a large army as soon as possible to go north to Xihe and gallop to aid Guangcheng, but there is almost no army that can be mobilized at present, and the ministers and others discussed and asked the emperor to send an edict to the king, so that all counties and noble families in the world can recruit troops into Chang'an Qinwang on their own. After these Qinwang armies arrived in Chang'an, they were uniformly dispatched by the imperial court. ”

Emperor Wu of Han frowned tightly when he heard the word King Qin, and his face became ugly. The word King Qin is easy to say, but once this edict is issued, it is equivalent to announcing to the whole world that the Han family is in danger. The last time there was such a serious crisis in the Han Empire was during the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion during the Jingdi period, but at that time it was a civil strife, and Emperor Jing and Zhou Yafu also had thirty-six generals, as well as his good brother Liu Wu, the king of Liang, so even during the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, there was no edict from King Qin.

Now it is an invasion by foreign enemies, and the DPRK and China have no generals available, let alone troops to send. But Emperor Qin did not dare to edict Emperor Wu of Han, he didn't know where this empire would eventually go after this edict was issued?

"King Qin's edict? So what's the second thing? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty muttered three words, but did not reply, but asked Liu Quyu about the second of the two important things.

"The second thing is...... Please Your Majesty set up the crown prince as soon as possible to consolidate the country's ......" Liu Quyu bowed and bowed, his voice was particularly loud at this sentence, and the word prince echoed in the Xuanshu Hall for a long time.

This proposal to make the edict of the king and the crown prince is not the suggestion of Liu Quyu or one or two people, but really the opinion of the vast majority of courtiers. Even compared with King Qin's edict, these Han courtiers were more concerned about the later rules.

"I'm not dead...... Are you planning to set up a new king? Emperor Wu of Han's voice was a little gloomy, Prince Li had already been proposed by many people, but he kept it down, he didn't expect that at this time, these courtiers would put it on the table and put it in a position to stabilize the country's foundation to discuss.

"Your Majesty..... The canonization of the crown prince is the meaning of all the courtiers, and it is also something that the people of the Han Dynasty are looking forward to. In this autumn of critical survival, the position of the crown prince must not be vacant! Lao Zongzheng Liu Anguo stood up tremblingly, he walked to the hall and bowed slightly to Emperor Wu of Han, although his voice was old, it had a unique heavy atmosphere, and there was even a taste of subduing Emperor Wu of Han faintly.

Liu Anguo is not only a courtier, but also the elder of the clan, and his words not only represent the courtiers, but also the attitude of the entire clan. Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a generation of heroes, there were some forces that he could not ignore, such as the imperial clan represented by Liu Anguo.

"Please Your Majesty to appoint the crown prince as soon as possible....... To consolidate the country's ......" The ministers bowed again, and their voices rang out in unison, as if they had been discussed in advance. In this matter, everyone was on the same front, and for this they could fight together against Emperor Wu of Han.

This is not a conspiracy or a conspiracy, but the inevitable result of this feudal era. Internal and external troublesWhen the emperor is old, nothing is actually as big as the problem of the heir. I'm afraid that even if the Xiongnu have come to Chang'an now, I'm afraid that most of these people will still think about establishing the prince candidate and then defending against foreign enemies.

What seems to be an absurd and ridiculous behavior is taken for granted in this day and age!
