Chapter 44: Gaudí's Court

Previous Chapter

"After all, King Xuan is old, and it is inevitable that his brain will not be clear after standing for a long time, but is there anyone who is not sober in his mind? I can be extra gracious, and I can give you a grace to be sober at home. After the guards took King Xuan down, Gao Diyuan spoke.

Gao Diyuan's voice was very deep, so heavy that it could bend people's backs, making people involuntarily surrender to him, and making people unable to resist at all. A long-lost sense of tremor swept over, and the ministers of the Chaowen Palace realized that the emperor of Gaudi had returned.

General Rui knelt down early to plead guilty, and the rest of the courtiers all looked different. After all, Gao Diyuan has not been on the throne for a long time, and his foundation is not stable, so it seems that it is not a wise move to send out King Xuan. King Xuan dared to be so arrogant because he had 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. This is also the reason why King Shen always carefully hides behind him to make some small moves, or encourages King Xuan to achieve his own goals.

Compared with Liyang and Nanyue, Gaudi has a vast territory and people who are far inferior to the other two countries, and the total number of soldiers and horses in the entire country is about 400,000. Liyang, because of the strange temperament of Emperor Liyang, always felt that the other two countries had a plan, and recruited troops on a large scale, with a force of up to one million, but in the end there were some good and bad. Nanyue did not like the martial arts and attached importance to the literati, and the army was weakening day by day, and there were as many as 500,000.

If war broke out, Gaudí's greatest reliance was the strength of each of their soldiers. There is a saying that noble essence is not much expensive, with 200,000 soldiers who are comparable to martial arts masters, plus 200,000 elite soldiers, they also have the power to fight against Shangliyang. Liyang, the most powerful country among the three kingdoms, has actually been blinded by glory, and it has begun to decay inside. No matter how many soldiers there are, if there are no good generals, it is useless.

This principle is also applicable to Nanyue. What Gao Diyuan wants to do now is to get back the 100,000 soldiers and horses in King Xuan's hands. King Xuan is used to being arrogant, and it is really easy to find the wrong place to send him down. The trouble though, was how to get the talisman from him.

"General Rui, get up. Now the hussar general of the Yang Kingdom led 300,000 troops to invade my Gaodi border, and it is the time to use the troops, I sent you to lead 100,000 troops to the border immediately to guard my Gaodi's territory! ”

When the previous Emperor Gao Di was still alive, General Rui had annihilated 10,000 enemy troops with 1,000 troops. And he took the head of the local general among the ten thousand people with the strength of one person. Since then, he has become famous and has been reused by the previous Emperor Gaudi. In addition to his violent temper and love for beauties, he is also a good candidate for war. Gaudi remained at the border, and he needed the help of General Perry.

"Your Majesty, these 100,000 soldiers and horses are a thousand wind army?" One of them asked.

No wonder he would have asked this question, Gaudi had 400,000 soldiers and horses. 100,000 soldiers and horses guarded the border, and 100,000 were in the hands of King Xuan. The Thousand Winds Army had been training in Luna Mountain, and he took it for granted that he was drawing men from the Thousand Winds Army.

Many people think so, and some people are keenly aware that today's Gao Di Yuan's attack on King Xuan may be just the beginning, and it will not be as simple as imprisoning King Xuan in the mansion. For a while, everyone was waiting for Gao Diyuan's answer. Before Gao Diyuan could speak, the eldest prince Rong Wang, Gao Diyuan's royal brother spoke, "Naturally, it's the Thousand Winds Army." The Thousand Winds Army built by the seventh brother was praised even by his father. This time, it will also let the Thousand Winds Army go to the real battlefield, so that everyone can see the strength of the Thousand Winds Army. Otherwise, Liyang still thinks that our Gao Di's Thousand Winds Army is just a divine soldier who nests in the mountains all day long, with no name. ”

King Rong was sneering and sarcastic, and no one present could hear that he was satirizing the Thousand Winds Army, and the expressions of the ministers were even more uncertain. Peeked at Gao Diyuan above, secretly looking forward to it.

Everyone is a bloody man, and there is something to see the truth under the hands. They worship force, and in their opinion, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a fight. Even Wenchen thinks the same way. Yes, General Rui made a move in the Chaowen Palace, and they just stopped it. Gao Diyuan did not punish General Rui, and they did not feel that there was anything wrong.

King Rong is the best at playing tricks, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, mocking and satirizing, and disobeying Yang and Yin, and he is the second person they dislike. First, it is King Shen. Compared with King Rong, King Shen is even more small-bellied. The nobles of Lanhuang City all know that if they accidentally offend King Shen, it is best to bring more people with them when they go out.

It's better to let King Shen go to the border as well, and kill him.

King Shen's gaze swept around the Chaowen Palace, secretly remembering everyone's expressions in his heart.

Gao Di Yuan just glanced at King Rong casually, "At the moment of crisis, presumably King Xuan must be very willing to sacrifice the 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hand to solve problems for me Gao Di and eliminate foreign enemies." ”

This is the soldiers and horses in the hands of King Xuan, the ministers thought so, and showed such a look.

King Shen frowned, King Xuan lost 100,000 soldiers and horses, he was a toothless tiger, so how could he be a fox and a fake tiger? "Your Majesty, the talisman in King Xuan's hand was given by the emperor, and I'm afraid it's not good for the emperor to do this."

King Rong snorted contemptuously at King Shen, "King Shen, are you afraid that the talisman in King Xuan's hand will be taken away, and you have no way to use the power of the people, right?" ”

King Rong's mouth is really poisonous, and no one will let it go. What kind of battle? Dogs fight people. Everyone pursed their lips at the same time, for fear that they would not be able to hold back and lose face in front of the emperor. Gao Diyuan looked at a group of tall men pursing their lips together, and his face was indescribable.

"You! This king is your imperial uncle, how dare you be so rude! King Shen pointed his finger at King Rong and said angrily, his face completely dark.

"This king is king with you, why can't you say it?" King Rong clasped his hands in his sleeves, looking like you and me.

……

Gao Diyuan's face was slightly gloomy, and his momentum was full of momentum, and without saying a word, the two of them were silent at the same time. As long as the chickens are killed well, the monkeys will always be afraid. The trick of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys will never go out of style.

Chaowen Hall was quarreled by General Rui and Hope, and then after King Shen and King Rong quarreled, nothing could be more serious than the farce of these four people today. Therefore, the court meeting ended quickly.

"Your Majesty, Liyang Kingdom has millions of soldiers, and once the war starts, our Gaodi Kingdom will definitely suffer heavy losses. Moreover, it was also taken the lead by Liyang Kingdom. The elite of the Thousand Winds Army assassinated the Jiangli County Lord of Liyang Kingdom, what happened in Yangxing City in Liyang? "The person who spoke out was an old man with gray hair, and he was an old man in his prime. It was Gao Diyuan and Gao Diyuan's father's mentor Wang Zhixing, who was quite respected by Gao Diyuan, and the two were discussing the war in the imperial garden of the palace at this time.

Wang Zhixing looked at the arrogant young emperor in front of him and asked suspiciously. It's not that he doesn't think that Gao Diyuan will do such a despicable thing, the important thing is that under the circumstances at that time, killing Chu Jiang is not the slightest benefit. Blame Nanyue? Nanyue hugged the beauty and made a low posture of attaching the entire Nanyue Kingdom to Liyang. Anyone who is there must be something strange in it.

"Taishi, Li Yangsheng has a treacherous temperament, goes back on his word, and does a lot of things like stabbing people in the back. It would be better to go to war with an alliance that guards against each other. Gao Di Yuan's tone was firm and powerful, and he firmly believed that even if Liyang and Nanyue joined forces, Gao Di would not lose.

Wang Zhixing smiled with satisfaction, what he wanted was an emperor who was always confident. "Your Majesty, Liyang Sheng is old and cunning, and most of them will use Nanyue to attack from both sides. Only send troops to Lanye City, so ...... the defense of Sunny and Rainy City? ”

Gaudí is separated from Nanyue by a rain river, and the city of clear rain is the closest city to the rain river in Gaudi. In order to prevent Nanyue from taking the opportunity to attack, Sunny Rain City needs to increase its troops. Gao Diyuan had expected this for a long time. "Then why does the Taishi think I want to take action to rectify King Xuan?"

"The emperor thinks that Liyang's focus will be on Sunny and Rainy City?" Lanye City has 100,000 soldiers and horses of King Xuan, so the rest of the Thousand Winds Army will naturally go to Qingyu City.

"Knowing that I went to Yangxing City with the intention of marrying, Li Yangsheng can still do something to assassinate me. It is normal for Nanyue to pay some sincerity in forming an alliance. "First use Nanyue's troops to consume a large amount of Gao Di's combat power, and then make up for it from Liyang, and enjoy the profits. In this way, it is a plan for two birds at a time. can not only take down Gaudi, but also ensure that Nanyue will not have enough combat power to be a yellow bird after the war between the two countries.

If it were himself, he would do the same. That's why he sent the Thousand Winds Army to Sunny Rain City, instead of Lanye City, which was about to welcome 300,000 Liyang soldiers.

"The emperor is thoughtful, and he will definitely be able to achieve his wish and dominate the world." Wang Zhixing said. "But speaking of which, there is something wrong with Liyangsheng transferring General Chu, who has been guarding Bicang City, back to Yangxing City and distributing half of the military power to Li Su."

"I went to Yangxing City, the capital of Liyang Kingdom, on this trip, but I heard some rumors." Gao Diyuan and Wang Zhixing sat down in a pavilion. The accompanying eunuch quickly prepared tea. Gao Diyuan raised his hand to pour tea for him, Wang Zhixing hurriedly got up, "Weichen came by himself, how dare he bother the emperor, this is not in accordance with the rules." ”

Gao Diyuan shook his head, he really respected Mr. Wang Zhixing, "Master Tai is my mentor, and the student pours tea for Mr., what is not in order." ”

Wang Zhixing had no choice but to continue, "What kind of rumor did the emperor say?" ”

"Li Yangsheng is very taboo about the Yi family, and there are faint signs of killing. Yangxing City has inexplicably disappeared a lot of people recently, coupled with the fire in Fenglu Mountain, which burned the villagers of several nearby villages alive, and many people said that the Yi clan was wronged. I asked the Thousand Winds Army to secretly investigate, and it seems that Liyangsheng has been poisoned, and this poison is related to the Great Yi Dynasty more than two hundred years ago. ”

Wang Zhixing heard the slight ridicule hidden in Gao Diyuan's words, after all, the Great Yi Dynasty was more than two hundred years old. What Li Yangsheng did was like a timid person who couldn't get on the stage, but he really lost his imperial demeanor. If the Yi clan really has remnants, what is there to fear for a person who controls the Liyang River. "Your Majesty, are the rumors true?"

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, if it's true, if you dare to offend me Gaudí, I will make him unreal. If it's fake, I can make him not even fake. Gao Diyuan's words were filled with unparalleled domineering and murderous intent, and Wang Zhixing had no doubt about the authenticity of his words.

"Yes, more than 200 years have passed, and no matter how much you make waves, it will be in vain. The prosperity of the Great Yi Dynasty cannot be repeated, and there is no royal Yi clan in the world. Wang Zhixing agreed.
