Chapter 409: Southwest Counterattack
Cheng'en Mansion.
Cheng Engong was originally worried about the war in the northwest, but after hearing what Chen Juma whispered to him, his face turned red with anger.
"Southwest? Zhou Xinglie? Well, sure enough, he didn't change his mind. ”
Cheng Engong's hand grabbed the armrest of the chair, and the green tendons on his arms burst out.
Chen Yuma smiled coldly: "Since we know it today, we won't let him go again." ”
"Huai Jin's child gave His Majesty a small ...... Animals can recognize poison, so His Majesty's safety is somewhat guaranteed. ”
Cheng Encheng was angry, not noticing Chen's pause and the strange tone of voice when talking about the small animals.
"Huai Jin is a good boy." He replied casually, and turned his attention to the southwest side.
Chen Yuma smiled bitterly, just looking forward to Cheng Engong seeing that little animal in the future, don't be startled.
The time to see the critters came quickly.
On the morning of the second day, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were horrified to find that there was a palm-sized spider on His Majesty's shoulder.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......"
Cheng Engong stammered a little.
Emperor Shunchang pursed his lips and smiled at Cheng Engong, and then returned to his previous expressionless face.
"Why is there such a big spider on Your Majesty?"
Elder Jiang Ge stabilized his mood and asked.
Liu Hai, who was waiting beside Emperor Shunchang, hurriedly bowed down and spoke: "Lord Jiang, Your Majesty has found something inappropriate in your diet in recent days, so Your Majesty has carried this spider with you, which can identify poisons. ”
The room was amazed.
Why is something inappropriate suddenly appearing again?
What kind of person is this person here, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic?
At first, when he was succeeded by an infant child, many ministers expressed dissatisfaction.
But under the thunderous tactics of several auxiliary ministers and regents, what discontent, what jealousy, what wants to take their place, what His Majesty is young and ignorant anyway, all are left behind.
Your Majesty is young, but the eyes of the regent and the auxiliary ministers are bright.
"My young age does not mean that I can be bullied by others, Cheng Engong, this matter is handed over to you and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and the person behind it must be found out."
Emperor Shunchang silently recited the words that Chen Yuma taught him last night, and his little face was serious.
Cheng Engong and Shangshu of the Criminal Department immediately bowed down to receive the order.
"Something to start, nothing to retreat." Bangs spoke, as usual.
Hubu Shangshu took the lead and said, "Your Majesty, the military supplies in the northwest have been prepared and can be transported to the northwest at any time. ”
Emperor Shunchang knew that there was a war going on in the northwest, and he also knew that it was a good thing to be ready, so he nodded with a straight face.
The ministers discussed the issue of military resources for a while, and Emperor Shunchang couldn't understand what they were talking about.
Just sit on the dragon chair and watch the ministers below open their mouths to discuss.
Liu Hai bowed and stood on one side, looking at Emperor Shunchang, who had to be serious every day at a young age, and sighed in his heart.
The issue of military funding was almost discussed, and the others did not have anything to say, and as soon as Liu Hai was about to announce his retirement from the court, he saw an inner servant running to the door in a panic and kneeling.
"Why are you so flustered?"
Liu Hai was displeased when he saw it, but above the court, there was no room for him to speak, so he stood aside and was silent.
Elder Jiang Ge took the lead and asked.
The little chamberlain was just running too fast, he knelt on the ground, panting heavily, and said, "Eight hundred miles of urgent military report, sent from the southwest." ”
There are no honorifics, but no one cares about them at this time.
The urgent military newspaper sent from the southwest, could it be said that the stockade in the southwest was reversed?
"Xuan!"
Cheng Engong's heart panicked and spoke.
Soon, a herald who was stumbling ran up and knelt in the doorway.
His body trembled under the double pressure of exhaustion and nervousness.
"Your Majesty, the stockade on the southwest border has suddenly attacked in a big way, this is the report."
He raised the bulletin in his hand and knelt on the spot.
Jin Yuwei, who was waiting at the door, immediately took the report and handed it to Liu Hai.
Liu Hai knew that Emperor Shunchang couldn't understand it, so he just opened it and showed it to him, and then handed it to Cheng'en Gong.
Cheng Engong opened the report, frowned, read it at a glance, and handed it to Jiang Ge Lao beside him.
Jiang Ge Lao simply read it out.
"The southwest eighty-eight villages led by the largest village attacked the southwest border in one fell swoop, and the southwest border defenders were caught off guard and lost five cities in a row.
"Garrison General Li Qingshan gathered the garrison of the five cities east of Yizhou to fight the enemy together."
The ministers were in an uproar again.
Lost five cities in a row!
"Cheng'en Gong, then Li Qingshan was originally a general in the Moxi Army, and he was originally very good at fighting, and now he has been a garrison general in the southwest for five years, which is a big responsibility."
"The ministers are invited to appoint Li Qingshan as the main general and fight on the spot."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
Cheng Engong discussed with Jiang Ge Lao and others, drafted an order on the spot, and ordered people to send 800 li to Yizhou urgently.
Qi Maoyang, the squire of the military department, led 50,000 elite soldiers to the border for reinforcements.
********
Stepping into the land of the Great Zhou again, Zhou Xinglie's heart couldn't be more happy.
He looked at the buildings around him that were obviously different from the southwest village, and he longed to look up to the sky and howl a few times.
It's back!
It's finally back!
Now that there is a war going on in the northwest, and the army is pressing on the northwest border, who will come to the southwest and stop him?
If such a good opportunity is let go, it will be a catastrophe.
Zhou Xinglie thought of the burden of humiliation in the southwest village over the years, and his personal guards lost their lives in a battle in order to help the village owner's daughter Ah Long get the position of the village owner.
And Ah Long, the daughter of the owner of the village, now said that it should be the new owner of the village, after seeing enough of Zhou Xinglie's handsome face, she decisively turned around and came together with another man in the village who looked very tough.
Anyway, she still remembered that Zhou Xinglie exerted his strength behind her back and did not leave him behind.
At the time of the battle in the northwest, they gathered the surrounding stockades and captured the five cities in the southwest in one fell swoop.
"Ah Lie, how about it, I will do what I say, right?"
Surrounded by her new favorite, Ah Long walked to Zhou Xinglie's side.
Zhou Xinglie looked at the few men around her who had different temperaments but were handsome, and felt a burst of nausea in her heart.
Such a woman who does not abide by women's morals and water-based Yanghua, after she regains the emperor's position, she must be chopped up and fed to the dogs, so as to eliminate the evil anger in her heart.
But for now, I can't offend her.
"Along, thank you so much."
Zhou Xinglie smiled softly at Ah Long, but there seemed to be a raging fire burning under his eyes.
