Chapter 318: Commander
Seeing that the envoys were violently dragged out, without the slightest emotion, the ministers did not know how to react.
But in any case, you can't intercede for them, Shang Guo is too much.
It wasn't until the shouting was far away that everyone reacted.
The military department Shangshu stood up and asked, "Does the emperor really plan to transfer 400,000 troops?"
Sister Yan said, "Naturally, it's true, I knew that Lian Jin wouldn't have any good intentions, but I didn't expect him to be so excessive, challenging my Da Chu's bottom line, we naturally have to prepare for a decisive battle." ”
Someone else asked, "I don't know which armies to transfer?"
Sister Yan looked at Tian Shen, and Tian Shen was responsible for this aspect.
Tianshen said, "This seat is responsible for the military horses, and Ah Yan is responsible for the supply of grain, grass and resupply." We have studied overnight, last night His Majesty has ordered the transfer of 100,000 soldiers and horses in Binzhou, a total of 400,000 troops in the west, and we will transfer 100,000 from Qingzhou and Yuzhou, and 50,000 from Qianzhou, Yuezhou, Yuncheng, and Liucheng, a total of 400,000, and camp outside the original city of Xiyuan, Kaiyun City, Liucheng granary supply, Binzhou, Qingzhou granary is ready to be mobilized at any time, and the granary of the original city will not move first. ”
Everyone thought that the two of them were young, even if they were intellectually superior, they could not take on the responsibility of a country, but now when they talk about the transfer of troops and food, they are the first to say, and they have obviously distributed the grain and grass of the soldiers, horses, and horses, and they have kept it in mind and can be used at any time.
The emperor said, "Qingzhou, Yuzhou has enough soldiers and horses, but it is a little far away from the border, if there is a need to mobilize again, it will be too late, and it can be transferred in advance, as for the other state cities, they are all elite, each transfer 50,000, together, it is also amazing, so it can be seen that I am determined by Dachu, but the 400,000 troops are stationed outside the original city, do you think it is appropriate?"
Shangshu of the Ministry of War is in charge of soldiers and horses, and he is naturally more sensitive to these, and said busily, "Although the original city belongs to the Western Plains, it is only three hundred miles away from the garrison of the king of Yunnan, and it is almost the same as going to General Xie's station. ”
Yes, you can't press all the soldiers and horses to the west, and there is still a place guarded by the king of Yunnan, and the intersection of the three kingdoms of Chu, Jin and Shang is also an important place, and there is no room for loss.
The emperor said, "Mobilize the army, grain and grass, and do it according to the arrangement of Tianshen and Sister Yan." ”
This looks like it's about to go to war, many veterans in the palace feel that the blood on their bodies is getting hot, and they are tired of watching those sour Confucians fight back and forth all day long, and finally have a chance to loosen their muscles and bones.
"Your Majesty, who should command this army of 800,000 people?"
"Xie Ming has been stationed at the border for many years, and he has also experienced large and small wars, so let Xie Ming be in charge. ”
An old minister stood up and said, "General Xie has experienced a hundred battles, but this time it is about the 800,000 army and the prestige of the Chu State, and the old minister feels that General Xie is still young and inexperienced. ”
Someone retorted, "Only young people have sharpness, but if you hold the military power in your hands, but look forward and backward, then it is called detrimental to your prestige." ”
Listening to their arguments, the old marquis stood up, "The old minister is willing to ask for battle, although the old minister is old, but his head is not bad, and the two defense lines in the west and south are guarded, and my town south Houfu can't be weak." ”
Everyone saw that his eyes were blazing at the moment, and his back, which was usually a little rickety, was miraculously straightened.
This was really a general who stood tall in several battles back then, and Xie Ming's experience was just a small fight compared to him.
The emperor said, "The old marquis has state affairs in mind, but it's just your body-"
"Your Majesty, the old minister's body has been well recuperated, this body is used to the battlefield, and it can't be raised well, as long as the old minister is on the battlefield, the strength will come back, and besides, the old minister has been on the battlefield for many years, and he doesn't want to die of illness and lie on the bed, if he dies, he should die on the battlefield. ”
The emperor couldn't bear to say, "Ge Yue has already run into the army by disobedience, and I can't let the Houfu family and three generations die here." ”
"Ge Yue did the right thing, a man born with the blood of Jiangmen should not shrink into protection, my Xiao family boy should be on the battlefield and let the enemy be terrified. ”
"The Xiao family has already done it, your body can't even afford to travel long distances, how can you go to the border and work hard. ”
"Your Majesty, the old minister knows that this old arm and old leg can't kill a few enemies, but Xie Ming has not experienced such a big war, the old minister just went to help him suppress the formation, and when he has experience, the old minister doesn't have to interfere, Yan Yatou is right, when the old minister was still a hairy boy, he followed Guo Shuai and experienced that big war, the peace and the five cities of the Shang Kingdom that the lives of the soldiers exchanged for, can not be trampled on by them, please allow the old minister to go here. ”
Xie Ling and the others knew that the old marquis had experienced that great war back then, and that great war was also the beginning of the glory of the Xiao family, and he did not want military power, but supported Xie Ming and gave Xie Ming confidence.
"That's it, the old marquis insists on going, and I can only allow it, the 200,000 troops in Binzhou and Xizhou are under Xie Ming's dispatch, and the 800,000 troops of the old marquis and prime minister are adaptable. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
The two sisters didn't expect that the old marquis would insist on going to the border pass, but it was better than sending a prison army who didn't know anything.
The old marquis is experienced, which just makes up for Xie Ming's shortcomings.
Everyone present knew that war would break out sooner or later, but no matter what, the enemy must be blocked at the border pass, otherwise he would hurt a great Chu citizen and not be taken away from an inch of land.
After discussing the details, although the matter in front of us was resolved, the pressure on everyone was getting bigger and bigger, and the more carefully arranged, it meant that the crisis was getting closer and closer.
The emperor asked King Jun, "How is the investigation of the matter that you investigated?"
King Jun lowered his head, his eyes flickered, "Erchen found out the people that Master Zhang said, those people insisted that it was Brother Ye Wang who coerced and lured, and Erchen went down carefully, and found many correspondence and some account books in the secret rooms of those people, which seemed to be able to confirm their statement." ”
The ministers discussed, "Could it be that King Ye really did such a thing?" King Jun obviously didn't believe in these things, otherwise he wouldn't have deliberately investigated for so long, probably trying to find out that King Ye was wronged, but it didn't seem to be useful. ”
At that time, the person who impeached King Ye immediately stood up and said, "What His Royal Highness King Jun said confirms the matter of impeachment of King Ye by the ministers, please handle it impartially." ”
The emperor was also dissatisfied, King Jun hadn't reported for so long, and thought that he had found out that King Ye had been wronged, but King Ye was still disappointed, after checking for so long, it was still this result, which can only show that King Ye did those things.
King Ye was expressionless, and he didn't defend himself, he thought that King Jun was an upright person, but he didn't expect that his younger brothers would like to fall off the horse by themselves.
After the man finished speaking, King Jun looked at everyone's reactions, and said, "However, Erchen found out that their children returned to their hometown to visit relatives a few days ago, and soon after, they disappeared, including their parents in their hometown, all disappeared out of thin air. ”
The emperor only felt that he was in a panic, and could he not say it separately.
King Ling on the side said, "Old Five, if you can't say it clearly, how to do it." ”
King Jun also ignored him, and said, "The evidence of Brother Ye's alliance is too complete, these abnormalities can show that Brother Ye may have been wronged, please give us some more time." ”
"His Royal Highness King Jun's preference for His Royal Highness King Ye should not be too obvious. ”
Yes, among the princes, the closest blood relationship is King Ye and King Jun, so it makes sense.
"Ladies and gentlemen, just talk about things, since there are still hidden secrets, we can't make up our minds. ”
, the previous big man said, "Maybe His Royal Highness King Ye controlled their family, and there are a few people in the capital who have this ability, and you can't even find His Royal Highness King Jun who hides people, besides, if His Royal Highness King Ye kills people in order to vent his anger, it can explain why that person bites His Royal Highness King Ye to death, no matter how His Royal Highness King Jun induces him, he refuses to speak?"
This also said that King Jun was incompetent, and he said that King Ye was extremely vicious, so he sent both of them to be convicted.
King Jun and King Ye's faction, of course, did not agree, and the dispute broke out again for a while, and King Jun looked at the person who caused trouble, not knowing what he was thinking.
King Ling didn't speak, and his eyes shone with a fierce light.
The emperor said, "Don't fight anymore, since there are doubts, check again, King Ye is here, can't you still run away, King Jun continue to investigate, I believe in your ability." ”
King Jun and King Ye said, "Father Xie is considerate. ”
The two sisters have no intention of taking care of their family's affairs, but the matter of establishing the prince is imminent and related to the national system.
Sister Yan said, "Please also ask King Jun to find out the truth as soon as possible, so that everyone can explain it clearly, so that Your Majesty can think about the candidate for the crown prince." ”
This is a sign of forcing His Majesty to establish a prince, looking at the emperor with a depressed face, his heart is happy, and someone will spur him in the future.
When the dynasty was dispersed, Sister Yan Tianshen called the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, "My lord stays." ”
"What does the emperor command? ”
"After the lord went back, he issued a document to inform the world that the prince of Shang was making trouble in the court of Chu State, and wanted to buy back the five cities with money, which was rude and arrogant, but I don't want money in Da Chu, as long as the soldiers who died that year were changed for the lives of 400,000 Pyeongchang troops, they can still be considered, this price is to be discussed, and I hope that Shang Guo will seriously consider it. ”
The prince of Shang deliberately accentuated the tone.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu thought to himself, this is really not afraid of big things, but Shang Guo is about to become the prince's Yiyantang, does that old emperor still have prestige? What is the use of provoking them.
With this announcement to the world, there is no room for maneuver, and the prestige of the Chu State has risen, and there will be more dangers to face in the future.
Sister Yan said, "My lord will release it truthfully, the envoy of the Shang Kingdom, you can watch and deal with it, don't be too polite, just starve to death." ”
It's really simple and crude.
As he was talking, a palace man came over and said, "Emperor, Your Majesty wants to see the two." ”
When the two arrived at the apse, the emperor retired the waiters, leaving only Gonggong Xu.
"Your Majesty. ”
At this time, the emperor was still sighing, he wanted to use fame and fortune to balance the Xie family, and even wanted to marry him and Yining, but now it seems that it is really a superfluous move, and it is a little embarrassing to think about it.
"I came to you because I couldn't make up my mind, and I wanted to hear your opinions. ”
"Your Majesty, please speak. ”
"It's a matter of establishing a reserve. ”
