CHAPTER XXVII
"Report! Da Liang led an army of 200,000 and attacked the border. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThree cities have been lost! A bloodied soldier stumbled into Gao Hongxuan's tent, and shouted in a hoarse voice without even standing still.
Gao Hongxuan stood up abruptly and his eyes widened. He analyzed the recent intelligence, and although he found that the border was very unstable, he also made some arrangements in advance. However, he never imagined that Daliang would gather an army of 200,000 so quickly, and without even the slightest rumor leaking out, the army had already arrived in the city.
"Hurry up!" Gao Hongxuan hurriedly walked in front of the little soldier, his eyes full of anxiety.
"A day ago, the border city was raided, and the gate of the city was opened in just half a moment. An hour later, the neighboring city of Shuocheng was breached from the inside, and the generals defending the city voluntarily surrendered. At dusk, the last city on the border, the mountain city, lasted two hours, 10,000 guards were killed and wounded, and the city gate was breached! ”
The little soldier spoke out like a cannonball, and only after he finished speaking did he gasp for several breaths.
Gao Hongxuan stepped back several steps before he stood still.
The guards of the city were deployed by him personally; The generals of Shuocheng are his cronies; The guards of the mountain city are all his diehards! This Daliang raid, I have to say, the blow to Gao Hongxuan is unprecedentedly big.
"General." Gao Hongxuan's deputy looked at him with some concern.
Gao Hongxuan waved his hand to signal that he was fine. Taking a deep breath, he straightened up, "Order!" The whole battalion of the East Battalion rushed to the border with the general, and the other three battalions were stationed in the capital! With that, he got on his horse and went back to his house to get ready. He had to go back and talk to Silo, or she would be worried.
"General." The deputy stopped Gao Hongxuan with some embarrassment.
"What's the matter?"
"General, there is no Tiger Talisman of His Majesty. Brothers are not allowed to leave the station at will. The adjutant general frowned and said in embarrassment. He was also worried about the war on the border, and he also wanted to help the brothers on the border kill the enemy, but without the Tiger Talisman, they really couldn't leave.
Gao Hongxuan was stunned, he was too concerned about the war on the border just now, and forgot that there was still a tiger talisman.
But Jiang Zuming's attitude last night had already explained everything, and it was absolutely impossible for him to hand over the tiger talisman to Gao Hongxuan at this moment.
As for the reason, Gao Hongxuan also roughly guessed. It's nothing more than that Jiang Zuming already suspects that he wants to support his troops and establish himself as the king. Although he didn't have such a mind at all, how could the emperor's mind be understood by mortals?
Gao Hongxuan's guess was not wrong at all.
Jiang Zuming's heart was indeed so suspicious. It's even more serious than Gao Hongxuan thought.
At this time, Jiang Zuming also received an urgent report from the front. After reading the information, he did not summon the minister to discuss, but walked around the imperial study. And the more he walked, the more angry he became, and later he even threw the information directly on the table.
"Your Majesty."
"Don't talk about it." Jiang Zuming angrily interrupted Ying's words.
"Your Majesty is angry."
"Anger? How do you let me calm my anger? In just one day, three cities were lost in a row. Even if it's a surprise attack, even if the enemy is outnumbered. But if you look at this information, half a quarter, an hour, two hours, in such a short period of time, three cities have been breached one after another, is this normal? Tell me, is this normal?! Jiang Zuming said in the end, almost roaring. He was so angry.
