Chapter 424 The capital of a famous general
When the Heavenly Saint Emperor heard the news that Ying Chong was preparing to lead the army out of the village and go north to the grassland, it was also in the early morning of the second day of the sixth month, and at this time he was sitting on the throne of the Taizheng Palace, listening to the quarrels of the ministers in the palace with complicated feelings. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The bad news from Jidong made him feel extremely bad. Guyuan Lu was hit hard by this, and it is said that he should be happy.
But the military disasters suffered by the people of the three eastern counties of Hebei, coupled with the 330,000 horsemen of the Huns, who were already fish in the net, struggled to open a way of life, which made him extremely sad.
For the whole morning, the Heavenly Saint Emperor was in a sullen state.
But when Mi Chaotian sent the folds from Jizhou to him. The Heavenly Saint Emperor still barely lifted his spirits, and his eyes turned solemn.
He first subconsciously felt inappropriate and too risky. The grassland is a flat river, which is where the Hun iron cavalry comes in. But when you carefully weigh the pros and cons, you find that the risk is not big.
The young and strong army of the seven divisions of the left wing of the Xiongnu has been evacuated by the king of Zuogu Li. Now all that remains on the grassland are the old and weak. Even if there were enough men, there would not be enough ordnance to arm the troops.
Looking at the Xiongnu royal court and the right wing of the Xiongnu, the former has 800,000 cavalry, plus the slave army in the Western Regions, the total number of people is 1.2 million. However, in the Battle of Jizhou, the royal court also lost 300,000 people. And among them, 100,000 horsemen are still the most elite royal tent army in the Xiongnu royal court. And the right wing of the Xiongnu also has 780,000 cavalry, and the strength of the army is only under the royal court.
But this army of nearly 1.7 million people just looks like a terrifying number.
According to the knowledge of the Heavenly Saint Emperor, although the Huns have conquered and swallowed nearly half of the land of Xiaoyue Country in recent years, the vitality of Zoroastrianism still exists there, and the people's hearts are not convinced, and they are seeking recovery all the time. And the Great Moon Kingdom is also very wary of the Huns.
Therefore, the Xiongnu royal court and the seven right wings need to station 400,000 horsemen in the west all year round to prevent chaos.
Then there is Liangzhou, the Qin army in Liangzhou can be described as an elite gathering! The four major border armies of 240,000 people, plus 60,000 government troops and 140,000 unity soldiers, have all been war-hardened for a long time. In addition, there are also subordinates of the Dingwu Mengshi and the Liangzhou family, with a maximum of 790,000 troops!
Once the king of Wude County put on the trend of entering the grassland north, it was enough to restrain at least 800,000 horsemen of the Huns, so that they would not dare to move.
In addition, the northern part of the Huns was not peaceful. In particular, the eastern part of the country, which is close to the Mongol tribes, cannot be completely unprepared.
So scattered and scattered, the Huns at this time, can draw out 300,000 horsemen to fight, it is the limit-
Even if the troops are temporarily transferred, the number will not exceed 700,000 horsemen.
In addition, he heard that Mao Dun and his second brother, Youxian Wang Hulan, have repeatedly disagreed in recent years.
Zuo Xian Wang wants to protect the 300,000 people under his command, so that the last essence of the seven divisions of the left wing will not be compromised in Jizhou. Instead, it gave Ying Chong the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Although most of the 600,000 people under his command were rabble, the situation they could face was much better than when Li Yixian's army conquered the grassland a few years ago.
This time, there is indeed a great chance that the vitality of the Huns will be severely damaged.
"Good!"
The Heavenly Saint Emperor couldn't help but praise lightly, this sound was not only to praise Yingchong's unique vision in the art of war, but also to admire Yingchong's courage and courage.
It's just that he shouted out, but the ministers who were arguing in the Taizheng Hall all looked up and were stunned for a while.
The Heavenly Saint Emperor blinked, feeling equally embarrassed, and then coughed lightly in disguise, and waved his sleeves: "You continue!"
The right capital inspected Li Yang, retracted his gaze suspiciously, and then said with a full sense of anger: "The minister thinks that the defeat of Jidong is the crime of An Guogong Yingchong!
"The minister also seconded the proposal!" Yuan Daizhou, the governor of the council, also held the jade gui in his hand, and said loudly: "The ministers are not denying the merits of An Guogong, on the contrary, An Guogong was able to defeat the Xiongnu in Hanquanyuan, which is actually to turn the tide and save the four northern states from peril. However, for the tragedy of the three counties in eastern Hebei, An Guogong is also responsible!"
"The defeat of the three counties in eastern Hebei doesn't seem to be to blame for An Guogong. β
Xie Ling's brows furrowed, and his eyes were worried. Originally, the situation in the capital was not bad, and the probability of An Shigong returning to Great Qin was as high as fifty percent.
But the news of the defeat in eastern Hebei came back, and the situation in Xianyang City changed again, and the vicious waves were monstrous.
"The tragedy in eastern Jidong was, after all, caused by the negligence of the Guyuan Lu family. The army of the three counties was unprepared. β
When Li Yang heard this, he couldn't help but sneer: "However, the military governor of Ji Wan is Ying Chong, not the king of Jingbei County!"
At this time, Lu Wenchang, the head of the Hanlin Academy, also had tears in his eyes, and knelt in front of His Majesty: "Please Your Majesty, make the decision for my Lu family!
"How dare you say it!"
The Heavenly Saint Emperor sneered and looked at the one in front of him with a smile in his eyes. He originally wanted to wait and continue to watch this good show, but at this time, he couldn't bear it anymore, and directly threw a book on Lu Wenchang's face.
In addition, Yu said in the recital that as early as the 21st, he had sent someone to inform the Jingbei County Palace, asking the Jingbei County Palace's 100,000 troops to defend the Shang River. Later, on the 24th, I sent an order to the defense envoys of the three counties in eastern Hebei to gather troops to Guirendu and guard against the eastward advance of the Xiongnu. It is ridiculous that the defense envoys of the three counties also refused to obey it! Now he has filed the military order, as well as this twist and turn, and it will be sent to the capital in the near future. You Lu Wenchang, what else do you have to say?"
When Lu Wenchang heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned directly, he really didn't mean to frame it, but he didn't know about it at all.
While the coldness was blowing through his bones, Lu Wenchang felt resentful. Those idiots in Guyuan didn't even tell the capital about such an important matter?
Could it be those guys who thought they could hide it?
-- Ying Chong was ordered by the king to hold the festival and raise all military affairs in Jizhou. Ergu was originally rebellious and rebellious, and it was just a matter of not obeying his orders, but now after the defeat of the army, he still has the face to frame him afterwards?"
At this time, the voice of the Heavenly Saint Emperor, like a blade, continued to poke into Lu Wenchang's chest and abdomen: "My Hanlin Academy is a place for the imperial court to cultivate talents and hopes, repair books and write history, select scriptures to speak on the day of the feast, and teach the prince to read. But as the head of the Hanlin Academy, you have a bad character, which makes me disappointed. And you and other ministers, before impeachment, you must always find out the matter! Otherwise, I will think that you are unclear and unworthy of being a minister of the court!"
After saying this, the Heavenly Saint Emperor didn't bother to pay attention to the pale Lu Wenchang, and left with his sleeves brushed up.
Pei Hongzhi couldn't help frowning, and the governor Yuan Daizhou and the right capital to inspect the imperial history Li Yang were also pale and blue, and their eyes were gloomy.
Xie Ling's expression was slightly relaxed, and he breathed a long sigh of relief, thinking that it was just a false alarm. It's just a pity for this Lu Wenchang, who was hurt by his clansmen, and this time I'm afraid that he will be forced to write a book to tell the old man to save his name.
The rest of the ministers all looked at each other with strange expressions, and then talked about it.
"It turned out that An Guogong had expected that he could frustrate the old man, and it was not for nothing. This man's art of war is indeed beyond the reach of metrics!"
"On the 21st, did you expect it?
"This is what the Lu family deserves, selfishly misleading the country, and as a result, harming others and themselves-"
"It seems that the king of Jingbei County is nothing more than that, he is not even as good as a child!"
"It's a pity, it's a pity that this time the left wing of the Huns could have been defeated in Jizhou. But it fell shortβ"
"I will definitely have the book to impeach the king of Jingbei County later! The defeat of Jidong should not have happened!"
"The old man only sighed, this Lu family's character is so corrupt!"
Lu Wenchang still knelt in front of His Majesty, listening to everyone's words, but his feet seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't stand up again. (To be continued.) )
