Chapter 418: Northwest
The two of them heard the same voice in their hearts, it seemed that everything was really as the two expected, the northwest was ambushed and fell, and the capital was about to suffer.
Xia Li didn't worry much when she heard this, she felt that as long as Chu Ye was there, this would not happen, but Xia Ye on the side was full of sadness, he was really worried about Dachang, too much like his father Xia Zhi'an
When it was completely dark, the brother and sister left Xia Zhi'an's courtyard and went back to their residences.
Tomorrow is the annual New Year, because the capital is full of news that the northwest is occupied by the barbarians and the capital is going to fall, this year has no charm, but it is restless everywhere, the people are scattered everywhere, there are relatives in the south, go to relatives early, and they are not in the capital to stay for the New Year, some even don't want houses and fields, they have sold cash and moved directly, so the city gate of the capital is very lively these days, what is dragging the family, and there are a few outrageous, there are some people, I put all the animals I could take away in the car I was sitting in, and as soon as the car left, these animals screamed, and the sound was not small, which caused the people on the street to keep staring
So these things will undoubtedly make people panic, and the year will not pass, and there will be no need to sleep.
It's just that the Prime Minister's Mansion is much calmer, I don't know if it's because the Prime Minister ordered it or what, anyway, I haven't heard such a thing talked about in the mouths of the subordinates.
The people are very afraid that the first thing to attack is to enter Beijing, and occupying the capital means occupying the entire Dachang, so everyone's worries are not wrong, and there is nothing wrong with running for their lives, who doesn't want to live a safe New Year and live a peaceful life!
Xia Li couldn't sleep when she returned to her residence, she was thinking about why Chu Ye wanted this matter to be deliberately spread out! The northwest is occupied, and such news reaching the capital will only make everyone more panicked, and the situation will be more unstable. Forcing him to make some kind of decision or having another idea
Xia Li couldn't guess the end and was a little worried, what kind of fame was this person doing, but one thing was for sure, he must be doing something beneficial to himself, otherwise how could he do it!
The more she can't think about it, the more she wants to ask, although she can enter the palace, but it won't be good if something happens to her father, after all, her father's situation is very bad these days, so in addition to being intellectually unable to go, Xia Li once again convinced herself that her father couldn't do without people, and she couldn't go at all.
Xia Li couldn't figure it out and had to lie on the bed, although he couldn't sleep, he was lying there with his eyes closed.
I haven't seen Chu Ye since the last time I saw Chu Ye outside the palace gate, and I don't know how this person is doing during this time? It should be tormenting in front of the queen and the eldest prince and the emperor! I don't know if this person is like himself, and he hasn't slept so late.
……
Chu Ye, who was thought of by Xia Li, really couldn't sleep, and at this time he was walking back and forth in the hall, listening to the reports of his subordinates.
"Young master, the barbarian army is indeed not in vain during this time, not only is the army strong and strong, looking at their whole team and the situation of attacking by foot, the subordinates feel as if they have learned to arrange the army, and now they are only facing our army, and they must not have used it yet, if they fight again after a while, their subordinates guess that they will definitely show this hand. Our soldiers are no match for others now, and I'm afraid the situation will be even worse by then."
"General Nanming has not done anything in the past few years, neither training nor guarding well, he feels that the northwest should be a place without merit and worry, and thinks that the barbarians have never dared to attack him, and he didn't learn a lesson at all from the last time, and this period of time is still the same as before, which is why the northwest fell so quickly"
Chu Ye originally thought that as long as the barbarians swallowed half of the northwest and taught his father a lesson, who would have thought that the barbarian army would break through the defense line of our country in addition to such a disaster, and it was not under his control, I am afraid that the next step will be to fight here.
Thinking of this, he said, "What about General Nanming and those troops?" ”
The subordinates continued there: "At first, the subordinates thought that they would ask them to withstand for a while, but then they saw that it was really not good, and did not let them retreat all the time, although the number was still relatively large, there were 20,000 or 30,000 people, but the barbarians thought that the enemy was hundred, and our army was really ...... Not to mention the wine bag and rice bag, the subordinates are really anxious for them!
Chu Ye said there: "In that case, you go back today, and I will send you a few more men, no matter what, you can't let the barbarians attack again, you know?" I will entrust them in the northwest and not be able to get any closer, I am afraid that it will be dangerous to get closer to the capital, and in two days I will send someone to take over the affairs of General Nanming, and then you will help him to defeat the barbarians, if not, send a message to me, and I will go in person."
The subordinates said: "Don't worry, young master, the brothers are used to doing this kind of thing, and they are very good at it, so you can rest assured, if there is anything, it will be done, and you don't need to go over in person."
Chu Ye nodded when he heard it, "It's okay"
The subordinates reported some less important things, and then they started to rush to the northwest, if they felt that the horse was too slow, Chu Ye let them open their five senses and keep flying forward, so that he could rest assured that it was safe and fast.
Chu Ye's subordinates have become accustomed to the way the young master speaks, just say anything once, if you make a mistake, you will be punished, usually they are unusually lax, but if there is something to be nervous, people dare not have the slightest loose emotion.
He also miscalculated, he didn't know that the barbarian soldiers and horses were so bad, just recuperated for a short time, where the soldiers could be one enemy ten, which shows the degree of physical toughness., as far as he knew, General Nanming had not fed the soldiers in the past few years, and all the excess was taken out and sold for silver, and he heard that his family's silver money was piled up into a mountain of gold and silver.
Tailin Xiao Huanzi saw that the second prince hadn't slept in the house for so long, and said there: "Prince, it's all at this point, shouldn't you go to bed, see if you have something to do tomorrow morning, you won't be able to get up again"
Chu Yeben was still walking back and forth on the ground, thinking about things, and when he heard the little eunuch say this, he had to stop thinking about it, "Forget it, sleep today, and talk about it tomorrow", he was persuading himself!
In the morning of the morning of the dynasty, there were many cries in the homes of many ministers early in the morning. Most of them are family members who want to leave but the courtiers don't let them go, how can a courtier let his family escape at such a time, this is unreasonable.
I can't finish playing, I'll make it up tomorrow, I'm sorry for playing today.
