Chapter 309: The Beginning of the Edge
"I'm afraid the other party's purpose is to sabotage this harmony"
A slightly immature voice was particularly abrupt in this group of adults, and the person who spoke was Ye Huang, the eleventh prince, who had been quietly listening to the adults analyzing the incident since he entered the hall.
Hearing Ye Huang speak, several officials turned their heads to look at him together, Sikong Yu heard and heard the nephew's words outside the window, and looked towards the light, at this time Ye Huang had already walked from behind the second prince to the front of the person and began to explain his opinion.
"General Zhenbei can't be mobilized at this time", Ye Huang said: "If there is no containment of General Zhenbei on the frontal battlefield, the Beilin Army may advance the front to the south"
"Could it be that His Highness Eleventh means that Mobei City is not important?" , The one who spoke was the right squire of the military department, and he was also the one who agreed with the suggestion of the second prince.
"Now that the season is in winter, I think all of you have already felt it, we can still feel the cold weather when we hide in the tent, not to mention the current Beilin......
"Eleventh brother, don't go around the gates, quickly say your thoughts and give them to your adults for evaluation", Ye Ting saw that his younger brother, who had never even left the palace, began to try to express his opinions, he was angry and funny, and at the same time worried that he didn't know the rules of dealing with these officials.
"That's what I said, if His Highness Eleventh wants to prevent the transfer of General Zhenbei, he must come up with convincing rules", it was the Shangshu of Honglu Temple who spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please look here", Ye Huang walked to the table, pointed his finger at the location of Mobei City as Lord Qiu had just done, and said: "Mobei City is more than 1,700 miles away from the location where the Zhenbei Army is stationed, if the cavalry is to travel day and night, it will take about fifteen days, not to mention the infantry food and grass, and now the north is already cold and snowy at this time, and marching in such an environment will already affect the movement speed of our army."
"What you mean is that you want us to give up Mobei City, and swallow our anger about this sneak attack?"
Sikong Yu saw that it was the squire of the military department who was speaking, and he understood that the current military department was on the side of the second prince who supported the transfer of Sikong Yue to suppress Mobei City, Ye Huang is now the rightful child of Concubine Jing, and Concubine Jing is a member of the Sikong family, these officials will definitely guess that the supporter behind the eleventh prince is Sikong Mansion.
"It's not that I have to endure this incident", Ye Huang said while trying his best to recall the situation in the frontier that the fourth aunt had mentioned to him, "but now the Zhenbei army can't move, General Zhenbei only brought 50,000 horses when he went back this time, counting the 80,000 troops left behind in the northeast line, we only have 130,000 troops, may I ask Lord Qiu, how many troops can be mobilized in Beilin now?" ”
The military department Shangshu was looking at the map, and suddenly heard that the topic was thrown to him, and the eyes of everyone in the hall also turned to Qiu Shangshu along with Ye Huang's question.
"Beilin has been disturbed by the internal strife of factional strife for more than ten years, but if it is temporarily transferred, I am afraid that it can gather no less than 300,000 troops."
"That's right! Therefore, the general of Zhenbei can't move, now they only need to be on the northeast front line to contain the movement of Beilin, once the Zhenbei army divides its forces to the northwest, then there will inevitably be a garrison hole in the head-to-head confrontation area, if Beilin urgently mobilizes troops at this time, there is no need for 300,000, as long as the 150,000 troops are gathered in a short period of time, it is enough to break through our defense line and advance south"
