Something happened to the guards in the west suddenly, and the situation from the battlefield was uninterrupted, one at a time, one at a time, and the emperor was upset when he heard it.

At the beginning, news came from the west that the enemy army had attacked the city, General Qu was shot down by an arrow and fell off the cliff, the Ten Princes were captured, and the soldiers of the Great Cloud Kingdom suffered heavy casualties.

The emperor has a headache and hasn't thought of a solution yet, but another piece of news came over.

The enemy army is fierce, and has crossed an important checkpoint closed by the Jade Gate, and they burned, killed, and plundered on the way to this march, and did all kinds of evil, making the surrounding people miserable, and wherever they passed, there was artillery fire in the sky, and the flames were scattered in all directions.

The emperor felt even more headache, but he didn't expect that he didn't have time to wait for him to come up with a countermeasure, and then new news came over.

The speed of this earthquake is very fast, and it has already broken through the Yumen Pass, and it looks like it is going to break the three capitals from the direction of the Yumen Pass to the direction of the Yanmen Pass, and it looks like it is going to break the defense of the Yanmen Pass.

You must know that Yanmen Pass is a very important level, the defense inside Yanmen Pass is relatively weak, and Yanmen Pass is relatively close to Kyoto, breaking through Yanmen Pass is equivalent to opening the defense line of Kyoto.

If the enemy really broke through the Yanmen Pass, it would be a precarious matter for Kyoto.

When the emperor heard about this, he didn't hold back and spit it out, and a large mouthful of blood was on the ground.

The little eunuch next to him was a little panicked, although the emperor had coughed up blood before, he had never coughed so much, but this time he probably heard so much bad news, so he was anxious and had such a big thing.

"This ...... Emperor...... Doctor Tai, find Doctor Tai Doctor! ”

Seeing the little eunuch in a hurry, the emperor just waved his hand at him.

"It doesn't matter."

"Don't bother the doctor, it's not a big deal."

"Get some people and clean up this place."

After the emperor finished speaking, he just supported his forehead with one hand, and fell into thought there.

How so?

How could such a change happen suddenly?

If it weren't for the fact that the emperor had heard the exact news, he would probably have thought that this was a prank somewhere.

But this news is all true from the battlefield, and no one will bluff him.

This...... It's really shocking that this happened in just one day.

I always feel that things are very strange, and the defense of their Daming Kingdom should not be weak to this extent, but things have happened, and they are really in front of them, and now all they can think of is to resist with all their might.

The defense of Yanmen Pass is quite strong, but in the face of such a menacing enemy army, it is estimated that no matter how strong it is, it will be broken, and they can only send someone out to fight with the enemy army in a hurry.

Otherwise, it's useless to just defend.

If they only defend, the place east of Yanmen Pass represents the west of Yanmen Pass, including Yumen Pass, and the former border, all of which belong to their barbarian clan.

No, this is absolutely not possible, how can the land of their Great Cloud Country allow such barbarians to get involved?

What's more, Yanmen Pass is an important border place, if Yanmen Pass is exposed in front of the enemy, even if it is defended, it will be very dangerous in the future, after all, Yanmen Pass is not far to the east is Kyoto, if they really break through Yanmen Pass, it is not a wonderful thing for Kyoto.

No, we need to notify the ministers immediately to discuss countermeasures.

As soon as he gave the news to the order, he saw the shadow of the prince.

As soon as the prince came, he knelt on the main hall.

"What are you doing here?" The emperor did not understand the prince's behavior.

"Father, I have heard about the war in the west, and I am saddened by what happened to the Great Cloud Country, and I deeply hate the actions of the enemy army."

"Let's get down to business, I don't think you're here to tell me how much the enemy has done."

The emperor's tone was a little bad, I don't know if it was because his favorability towards the prince had weakened a little after so many things, or because he had heard too much about the west just now, so he was in a somewhat unhappy mood, all in all, the tone was very bad.

The prince didn't care, he still knelt on the ground and didn't get up.

"Father, and as the prince of the Great Cloud Country for so many years, he has never made any special contributions to the Great Cloud Country, and now that the national disaster is at hand, the son has the courage to pray to the father and the emperor to give the son a chance to be in command, the son wants to lead the troops to fight, the son wants to win glory for the Great Cloud Country, and the son wants to reclaim the land occupied by others in the Great Cloud Country again."

He only thought that he had said such high-spirited words, and that his father's usual favor for him should be feasible at this time, but he knelt on the ground for a long time and did not hear his father's answer to him.

"Father? ……”

The crown prince looked up at his father with some incomprehension.

"This matter will be discussed later, I have invited the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty to discuss countermeasures quickly, as for those who are in command or not, what things are needed, everyone will discuss and discuss together to see what kind of solution is the best."

What the emperor said makes sense, and the prince is powerless to refute it.

After all, the father and emperor can't always sit in this position with their own thoughts, and they always have to listen to the opinions of the ministers below, otherwise why do these ministers stay here? Isn't it just for decoration?

However, he firmly believed that with his father's favor for him, with his positive appearance, with those books on the art of war that he had read, there would be absolutely no problem, and this position of commander would naturally fall to him.

Yuwenyi waited next to him, got up, the ministers of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty heard about it, and the emperor heard about them here, and he didn't dare to delay after what happened in the west, and he quickly came to the palace, and soon the palace was full of shouting crowds.

Yuwen Tuo has not yet come, although he has received news from his father, but there are more important things for his father's news, he first went back to his stable palace.

Above the court, the Manchu ministers of civil and military affairs began to discuss their own thoughts on this matter.

Now that the enemy's offensive is fierce, they must make countermeasures as soon as possible, and they must not delay for a moment.

The words of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty who came here were similar to what the prince had just said, and they wanted to elect one person to take command and conquer the enemy army.

It is necessary to defeat the enemy army and recover their land, and their Great Cloud Kingdom will never ignore the humiliation of the enemy, let alone give up their land to others.

The foundation of the Great Cloud Country is strong and the national strength is prosperous, how can it be invaded by a small country around it.

Amusing.

However, although everyone's thoughts are the same, they all want to launch a marshal, and then the marshal will lead a million army to conquer the enemy.

However, there was a disagreement over who to put in charge.

The prince took the initiative to ask Ying to take charge, and they naturally took it seriously.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of their Great Cloud Kingdom has such a heart, which is naturally what the civil and military ministers below like to see, and they also maintain support for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also read poetry and books since he was a child, and although he has never been on the battlefield, he is a person who knows a lot about these things.

Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little dishonorable a few days ago, but now there is nothing dishonorable in the face of national disasters, whether it is a black cat or a white cat, it can be on the battlefield, and it is a good cat that can beat the enemy.

Although some people maintained support for His Royal Highness the Prince, some people were still skeptical, and the reasons they put forward were very simple, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had never been on the battlefield and had never had experience in this area.

This is not a joke to lead an army of millions, but it is not something that can be agreed to by taking the initiative to ask for help.

If you have to let this royal family go, it is more suitable than His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who seems to have been to the battlefield and defeated the enemy in the north.

It's just that now these two people seem to have come too late, and they haven't come to this hall.

Just when everyone was arguing here, they suddenly heard a report from the little eunuch outside.

"The king of Anding has arrived, and the king of Beiping has arrived."

With the sharp voice of the little eunuch, two people walked in from the hall against the light, one was wearing a turquoise robe, and his walking was also extremely elegant.

The man beside him was dressed in silver armor, glittering with the light from the outside, almost blinding the eyes of the people in the hall.

It's no one else, this one wearing armor is Yuwen Tuo.

When I returned to the Beiping Palace, I just wanted to put on my armor and instruct my subordinates to take care of some necessary supplies for me.

He's done enough, ready to go to battle.

The enemy's offensive is becoming more and more fierce, and time is of the essence, and it is better not to delay for a quarter of an hour.

But fortunately, he went back to Anding Wangfu, because His Royal Highness the King of Beiping, who is also his imperial uncle, did not come to the court immediately after hearing about this, but went to Anding Wangfu to find him.

On the way here, the two men discussed the enemy army.

It is unanimously believed that it is best for Yuwen Tuo to personally take command to defeat the enemy army, and to personally take command to drive away the enemy, which can increase Yuwen Tuo's popularity, and then the position of the prince can be obtained.

Moreover, compared with the other young generations in the imperial court, the language class seems to be more courageous and experienced, and it is most suitable for him to go out and take command to deal with the enemy.

As for why His Royal Highness the King of Beiping did not go in person, he actually had his own reasons.

His Royal Highness the King of Peking and His Royal Highness the King of Anding expressed their opinions to each other when discussing on the carriage, and they both felt that there seemed to be something strange about the enemy offensive this time, although they said that they didn't know where the strangeness was, but they always felt that there was something strange and had to be vigilant.

After all, this happened too suddenly, as if someone had answered it in advance, and although Yumen Pass was not a defensive place, it was relatively perfect for his defense, how could it be so easy to make the enemy break two cities in one day?

If the enemy army really had such a powerful strength, there would be no need to confront each other with the Great Cloud Kingdom for such a long time.

When I calm down and think about this matter carefully, I always feel that there are strange things everywhere.

With the guess of His Royal Highness the King of Beiping, maybe it is a few small countries next to it that have joined forces to defeat each other to defeat the Great Cloud Kingdom, maybe when all the people are busy with the war in the west, the war in other places will rise, this is the conjecture of the imperial uncle, Yuwen Tuo also feels reasonable, so he can't use all the generals and commanders in the war in the west.

At least a few should be left in the court, and the external strife has not been eliminated, but the internal strife has risen first.

Although they don't know if their guess is accurate, they definitely can't let Kyoto in the Great Cloud Country lack talent, which is a very correct idea.

Besides, Uncle Huang also deliberately honed Yuwen Tuo to see if Yu Wen Tuo could really be independent.

All in all, under the discussion of the two people, it was finally decided to push Yuwente out, and the imperial uncle was watching from the side.

As soon as Yuwen Tuo came in, he knelt in the center of the main hall, put his left hand on his right hand, and bent his upper body.

"Father, now that the disaster is in full swing, my son-in-law Yuwen Tuo voluntarily asks to be in charge, eradicate dissidents, and return my Dayun Kingdom to its health."

Looking at Yuwen Tuo, who was already ready, kneeling in front of him, the pious Yuwen Tuo.

Thinking that he came to himself early just now, he explained that Yu Wenyi, who wanted to be in charge.

The emperor was a little entangled.

Maybe who he chooses to let go out to take command this time is likely to be related to the future of the Great Cloud Kingdom in the future, and it is very likely to be related to who can become the future prince.

If the war is won, it will be highly respected, especially the generals, and the demand for the generals will be very high.

This decision must not be taken lightly.

However, although the emperor has always wanted to make the crown prince, who has always been cultivated by the prince, become the person who will inherit him in the future, but after so many things have happened, he seems to be a little hesitant, and he has always been thinking about whether his plan at that time was right or wrong.

And... Even if he knew that this choice would be related to the choice of the future situation, he didn't want to be sloppy.

Compared with these two people, it seems that his eighth son is more powerful and capable.
