Chapter 201: The Great Army Assembles

Fang Xuan has been timid since she knew that Feng Qing was pregnant, and she was not interested, but she didn't know who said that her little nephew could play with her in her belly, so she began to look forward to the birth of the child.

"Okay, Xuanxuan, sit down, if you don't obey, I'll tell my father, and then he will tell you to learn etiquette." Fang Han threatened, this girl will be like this every time she enters the palace.

Fang Xuan turned her head and glared at Fang Han, then turned to look at Feng Qing aggrievedly, "Sister, look at the eldest brother, he bullies me like this every time." ”

Feng Qing touched Fang Xuan's head, "Your eldest brother is right, you still have to pay attention outside." You can't go wrong with learning more about etiquette. But with my sister you can take it easy, as long as no one else sees it. ”

"Thank you, sister." Fang Xuan nodded happily, she knew that Sister Feng Qing was different from her brother. Taking advantage of Feng Qing's time to reach for tea, he turned his head and smiled proudly.

Fang Han didn't bother to bother with this little girl, she was quite well-behaved in other places.

"Niangniang, do you remember Yu Lin?"

Yu Lin? If Feng Qing remembers correctly, it seems that he met in Hagizhou.

Feng Qing: "Why did he come to the Imperial City?" ”

"It was still a few weeks ago, but now it should be in a small border town in Nanshang."

She and Ye Weishao once thought that Yu Lin was talented, but he was a little debauched. If you change it well, you might be able to become a big husband who is loved by all women.

"Why did he go there?"

Thinking of the reason that Yu Lin said at the beginning, Fang Han couldn't help but smile, "I'm idle, I have nothing to do." ”

"What's the matter with the sudden mention of him?" It is common to suddenly mention a person's situation, either what happened to him recently, or something related to him.

"Yes, he wrote to me not long ago, and it said that there are suspected that there are many large armies in the Nanshang border. But it seems that we in Dongyong have not received similar news. ”

Feng Qing frowned slightly, she hadn't heard of these things, but even Yu Lin knew that there was no reason why their spies didn't know.

"Xu, what is delaying the transmission of news, such a big news spy should be aware of it."

Fang Han didn't continue this topic, he had already said what he should have said, and the rest had nothing to do with him.

Although Feng Qing didn't care much about the affairs of the court, Nan Shang's gathering of the army was a big matter, so she couldn't help but take it to heart.

When the night was not over, Shao returned tired, Feng Qing took a mouthful to know that something was really wrong, and the spies had already detected the news, but they were intercepted halfway and suffered heavy casualties.

With his last breath, the news arrived, and it was not long before the news was transmitted back to the imperial city.

"Is it time to start a war?" Feng Qing leaned on the edge of the bed, holding a chess game to pass the time in his hand.

The army of Nanshang has been assembled, if it is not going to start, why should it be so anxious. Not long ago, I just mentioned the opening of the mutual market, and now I am going to change my hexagram again?

Ye Weishao took off the book in Feng Qing's hand, and it hurt his eyes to read books at night.

"Probably, Nanshang has been staring at Dongyong for a long time. Even during the period of the first emperor, he fought a lot of battles with Nanshang, and it can be said that the two sides are endless. "No one will negotiate peace first.

In the previous life, there were many changes compared to the present, and there was also a war between Nanshang and Dongyong in the previous life. It was because the merchants who went to Nanshang to sell goods in Dongyong were intercepted and suppressed by the nobles of Nanshang, and the goods were all robbed. The merchant also came out of a big family, and after returning home, he brought a large group of people back to Nanshang. The incident caused a lot of trouble, and gradually escalated to the point of contradiction between countries.

Nan Shang thought that Dongyong's businessmen dared to make trouble in their territory so boldly, but Dongyong didn't take Nan Shang seriously.

However, Dongyong thought that Nan Shang was unreasonable, and it was obviously their nobles who were at fault first, but they blamed all the rights and wrongs on the merchants.

So the war broke out self-evidently, and the final result was a tragic victory for Dongyong, and both sides suffered great damage. At this time, it happened that the remnants of the Southern Barbarians united with the surrounding tribes and other small countries to launch an attack on Nanshang.

Nanshang had already suffered heavy losses in the previous battles with Dongyong, and only a few thousand of the most elite troops remained. In the face of fierce attacks again and again, they could not resist and could only take the initiative to negotiate peace. He proposed to divide several important cities, and gave them a lot of treasures as usual.

Two years later, Nanshang recuperated and slaughtered the southern barbarians and the small countries that oppressed them.

The last thing that girls born as military generals are afraid of is to fight, because their fathers and brothers will go into battle to kill the enemy and defend their territory and the territory of the country. At the same time, what I am most afraid of is the war, and the mourning reports from the front line.

"Isn't there any chance of dΓ©tente?"

Ye Weishao sensed that something was wrong with Feng Qing, and held her slightly trembling hand, "I will do my best, if I really want to fight, I won't let my father-in-law go." ”

Feng Qing was silent, and the man who was fighting among countless enemies with a knife suddenly appeared in his mind. He was heroic and fearless.

"Your father won't be happy if you arrange it like this."

My father once said that even if you die, you must die on the battlefield, and you should die to defend your home and people. If you blindly retreat and cowardly because you are afraid of death, that is not the performance that a general should have.

"Okay, I got it. I'll ask him for his opinion before making a decision. ”

……

It didn't take half a day for Nan Shang to start assembling a large army spread among the courtiers, and everyone was saying that Nan Shang should have come this time, and not long after the Nan barbarians left, Nan Shang began to be idle again.

"Your Majesty, the minister thought that this matter still needs to be investigated, but he will make a decision after he is clear. After all, Nanshang didn't do anything excessive. ”

"You guts old pedant, isn't it too late for us to make a decision if we wait until they do it? Your Majesty, we should strike first, then Nan Shang has been making provocations large and small over the years, we have endured it so many times, if we don't take action this time, it will really make people look down. ”

"Reckless! Such recklessness may make things worse. Why don't we wait until the time is right? If we were to send troops, Nan Shang would bite back and say that we took the initiative to provoke it. Where are you going to reason then? Do you really think that our one-sided words can compete with Nanshang? Dongyong is a big country, and so is Nanshang. ”

"Don't grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige. If you haven't tried it, how do you know if it's wrong? How long will it take to wait? Wait until the Nanshang army has already captured the small state in the south, or wait until they attack the mouth along the twilight? ”

Ye Weishao sat at his desk, holding the freshly brewed tea in his hand. Looking at the minister in front of him, who was both literate and martial, he was arguing hard, and he was also thinking about his own affairs.

If he didn't have this kind of thing, he could still continue with the previous plan, but I'm afraid he would have to change it at this time.

Seeing that Ye Weishao did not react, the two ministers paused and stopped talking.

Ye Weishao also came back to his senses, "The two of you can discuss a result." ”

"No, please ask Your Majesty to decide on this matter."

No matter how long they quarrel below, the final decision is still in the hands of Ye Weishao.
