Section 32 Royal Affairs
readx;
At present, the Taiping Sect must be strictly guarding Lu Long, the west gate of the Taiping Holy Kingdom in their minds, in case they launch a counterattack, it will definitely be quite difficult for them to recapture it in a short time, thinking of the weapons they threw in Lu Long, including improved catapults and special crossbows, Wu Feng feels even more depressed, and I don't know if Mi Feng destroyed them when they evacuated Lu Long, if they all fall into the hands of the Taiping Sect, I am afraid that it will be more troublesome. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBut if the Taiping Sect is allowed to occupy Lulong, after a long time, the people will be determined that they may have to pay a greater price if they want to conquer this big mansion.
Thousands of sorrows welled up in his heart, Wu Feng's heart at this time a rare sense of frustration, he began his entrepreneurial career since he entered Qingyang, defeated the Luobei people twice, westward into Luzon, internal suppression of rebels, north capture Yinchuan Taixuan, invincible, conceited and exhausted, everything is in their own control, I didn't expect that since I returned from Yanjing, the situation seems to have become a little unpredictable, although the North Luzon Shuangdui Mansion was lost and regained, but the sudden force of the Luzon people has made him feel that some things are not completely controlled by himself, and this time Lu Long's unexpected fall, the three elite divisions took the defensive position when they occupied a favorable position, and they were actually caused such a big loss by the Kamans, which made him feel that the battle situation was unpredictable and it was difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, and it seemed that he still underestimated the heroes of the world.
It's just that it's a little late to regret it now, the loss of Lulong Mansion not only adds some pressure to Merrington's defense, but Guide and Partridge Pass are both in the enemy's direct attack range, especially Partridge Pass, which is attacked on three sides, and the pressure will be greater, and his dream of going east seems to be even more slim.
The loss of the three main divisions is so great that he also feels very sad, and then he thinks about it, the Kaman people are known as the first military power in Libera is not in vain, if the performance is mediocre, it is really suspicious, but this kind of loss on his body is really a little difficult for him to accept, this is the elite who spent countless efforts to train, especially the third and fifth two divisions are their own starting troops, at this time to restore to the original state, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent, not to mention that the situation in the east is now cloud-locked fog, and there is a hidden killing machine inside, and the war may break out at any time, this lost power is even more precious。
It's just that it's too late to think about these things now, thinking about and discussing future strategies is the immediate priority, and blindly complaining about others is not in line with his own style of life, thinking of this, Wu Feng is trying to make his mood better, and at the same time trying to rub his cheeks to return himself to normal.
After taking a few deep breaths, Wu Feng walked out a long way before slowly walking back to the handsome tent in the center, and the generals who followed behind also followed quietly with bated breath, Rao is Mu Lige and Long Zi are all old men in the Northwest Army, but they have never seen the boss's face so ugly, Mu Lige and Long Zi are secretly drumming in their hearts, and they don't know how to explain the casualties of the three divisions to the commander.
"Come in, don't linger outside. Wu Feng, who was sitting still, had already regained his usual calm, but his face was still a little not good-looking, but compared to the expression when he inspected the camp just now, it was already a world of difference, and the hearts of the few people who heard the sound were slightly wider.
"My lord!" Mu Lige said in a deep voice, "This time I was trapped by the Kamans, and the casualties were huge, and my subordinates should bear full responsibility. ”
"It's the same with subordinates;;;;;;" Long himself hurriedly stepped out and echoed.
"Enough, needless to say, I'm not here to discuss responsibility today, if you want to talk about responsibility, maybe I'm afraid that I, the coach, should bear more, everyone has seen the strength of the Kaman people, or not, it should teach us a lesson, sound a wake-up call, lest some of us think that we are the best in the world, and no one will pay attention to it." Wu Feng waved his hand to stop the review of the two, although his tone was flat, but the meaning contained in it made the four division commanders, including Sha Lang, break out in a cold sweat.
"It doesn't matter if we lose the battle, the problem is that we have to realize why we lost the battle? What is the reason? Lu Long is lost, the fault is not in others, I have to bear the main responsibility; the southern front is not good, I also have to bear a considerable responsibility, but the three of you also have to think carefully, whether you have made mistakes?" Seeing that several people quietly lowered their heads, Wu Feng still analyzed slowly and logically: " Although the Kamans are strong in combat, our three divisions are mainly infantry, and the hoplites are the ace of our Northwest Army. ”
Yixi's words, the four of them, such as wood, dragon, bear, and sand, didn't dare to say much, but silently pondered the meaning of the coach's words.
"Okay, I don't want to say anything else, let's go down and rest first. Seeing that the four of them were deep in thought, Wu Feng didn't say anything more, but he also hoped that his three subordinates could take this opportunity to reflect on it, Wu Feng himself also vaguely found that some pride and complacency in his army began to breed, especially in some armies that had won several battles, with a taste of seeing the world as nothing, and even he was more or less contaminated with this kind of view, if it weren't for the two consecutive sticks this time, he might not really be able to wake himself up.
Situ Mingyue reclined on the soft chair, staring blankly at the window of Xia Yanyan, occasionally a cool breeze slipped in, and endless sorrow was like vines entangled in his heart. It's not all about the current situation, and while the situation in the North and the South isn't too good, there's nothing too bad about it.
The two families of Guanxi Lin and Lang are in disobedience, especially Lin Guoxiong, who prevaricates and delays the emperor for various reasons[***] The team took over the Lujiang River, and the northern city guard corps did not have the heroic style of the Qinghe victory, blindly fighting with the enemy in the territory of Qinghe Mansion, and the small and medium-sized battles continued, but the big battle did not happen, the Taiping Sect changed its strategy, pinned down the city guards in the north from multiple roads, and constantly sent small groups of elite cavalry to disturb the supply lines of the city guards, so that the city guards did not dare to advance easily, and the internal affairs department tried their best to contact in the Qinghe Mansion, and the gentry could not find two people who were willing to serve the empire。
What bothered him even more was his own body, sometimes good and sometimes bad, even the best imperial doctor in the empire could not diagnose what disease he was suffering from, or was his mood affecting his body, or was he already terminally ill? Since the pro-government, all kinds of troubles seem to have not stopped, from the Sanjiang Incident to Lang Yongquan Shoufeng, it seems that he has participated in it, although at that time the first emperor was still nominally in charge of the government, and later the three northern countries frequently harassed, the outbreak of the Yinchuan crisis, the invasion of the Luobei people, and the changes in recent years, one after another, as if they had never stopped, it was really tiring.
It would be nice to be able to get rid of these annoying things and easily rest for a while in a place that no one knows, fishing, reading books, drinking tea, or finding two monks to practice meditation and ask, but unfortunately all this seems to be an unattainable luxury of one's own. Looking out of the window in a daze, Situ Mingyue didn't even pay attention to the eunuch who was standing at the door and called softly a few times.
"Your Majesty, Lord He has been waiting for your summons outside the palace. The little eunuch raised his voice slightly, and said in fear.
"Oh, got it, let him come right here. Although it was arranged by herself, Situ Mingyue was still a little annoyed that the other party interrupted her imagination, and even this freedom would be deprived by others, which was really annoying.
"Your Majesty. Seeing the old figure appear in his eyes, Situ Mingyue felt in his heart, although it was not easy for him to be the emperor, but looking at the old man in front of him, he was also working under pressure, and the word sympathy suddenly jumped into Situ Mingyue's mind.
What's wrong with him today, why do you keep thinking about these inexplicable things, Situ Mingyue shook her head, laughed at herself, and returned her mind to the present.
"Sit down, Aiqing, it's just me and you here, you don't have to be too formal. Greeted gently, Situ Mingyue sat up straight with a little tiredness.
"What is the urgency of Your Majesty's recruitment of ministers?" He Zhiqiu was stunned, it seems that there should be no emergency, His Majesty's expression does not see anything unusual, but at this time, he recruited himself to attack alone to narrate, is there anything else that can't be done?
"No, it doesn't matter, you don't want a snake. Situ Mingyue smiled faintly, "I just want to find someone to chat, this car is in a panic." ”
"Oh, Weichen still thinks that there is some urgent military situation on the front line. He Zhiqiu breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately mentioned his heart, His Majesty the Emperor summoned himself into the palace at this time, although it was said that there was a chat, but the royal family had no trivial matter, the royal family had no selfish affairs, and it was not sure that it would involve the things that were being discussed in the government and the opposition now, and he was really unwilling to get involved in it, and this kind of thing was really not something that these outsiders could talk about.
Seeing the other party's cautious appearance, Situ Mingyue also sighed in his heart, how do he know that Qiu Lao Shen Zhiguo is really his own minister, but it stands to reason that there are some things that should not be asked to him, but his health is getting worse, if he doesn't make a decision early, I'm afraid that some people with intentions will be stirring up trouble here, maybe the more he drags the road, the more difficult it is to control the situation.
Pretending to be relaxed, he casually asked, "How is the progress of the Maqi Khans in Southern Romania?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the situation in Southern Romania has basically stabilized, although the Maqi Khans have made a breakthrough from Gaoligong Mountain for a while, but the logistics problem can not be solved in time, their main mind is now trying to find a way to open up this road that is difficult for people and animals, not to mention that the Lin family is also very decisive to take a defensive position, and there will be no new situation for a while. He Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied.
