Chapter 114 Anping War Report [Second Update]
After the black-clothed secret guard left, the smile on Xia Yuan's face slowly converged, what is the most important thing for the king, it is nothing more than the analysis and grasp of the situation, and the heart that will always remain lonely, even if it is close to the people, they will not really trust, pretend to be stupid when they should pretend to be stupid, if they can't do this, then they are not a qualified emperor.

There is no doubt that the most important thing in the emperor's mind is that every true emperor is a dictator, but dictatorship can also provoke a backlash from others, and these are the so-called ministers who support the imperial power.
The emperor is the most powerful person in the world, and if he wants to continue his power, he naturally will not let others dig his corner, and the ministers ostensibly support the imperial power, but it is often these ministers who dig the royal corner.
Hunger and appetite, cold and warmth, good and evil, greed is human instinct, let alone these powerful ministers.
Shen Mufeng's law of ten thousand mountains, to be honest, is good, Xia Yuan is a real emperor, there is no lack of vision, and he can naturally see that if this law is effective, it will be of great benefit to Great Xia.
But to say that there is no pimple in his heart is fake, even if Shen Mufeng's first two sycophants are loud, he is just as disgusted in his heart, because this is the Great Xia Kingdom, it is his Xia Yuan's Great Xia Kingdom, and the law is not yet the turn of that Shen family kid to revise it.
As for these performances, it was actually a reluctant compromise on Xia Yuan's part, compared to the fate of the country, what can this compromise count!
Besides, his daughter still has to rely on others to save her life, one saved her daughter's life, and made alcohol to reduce casualties for the Great Xia soldiers, so even if she first learned about the existence of the law of Wanshan, the knight would still be sealed, but this hand was played by Xia Yuan too beautifully, no one could see it.
――――――
At the beginning of June, the Battle of Anping Prefecture broke out in the five states of Zhanbu, the defenders of the Great Xia Kingdom were 250,000, and the enemy attacked in the diplomatic battle of Anping City, the enemy army of Baori showed a defeated state, and pursued 30 miles to encircle and annihilate the enemy army of the Baori Empire 50,000 people, and the Anping defenders suffered 20,000 casualties in this battle, which was undoubtedly a great victory.
The good news of 800 miles was rushed to Beijing, and the court was suddenly very lively, Xia Yuan held a celebration banquet the next day, at the banquet, Xia Yuan toasted and celebrated, but at this time, another battle report arrived.
"Enlighten the saint, there is a battle report from the front!"
"Pass it on!"
The little eunuch walked out, and after a while, he bowed down to Xia Yuan with a battle report with both hands, Xia Yuan was originally excited, but when he looked at it, his smile froze on his face, and his expression was almost about to burst into flames, and the hearts of His Royal Highness's ministers sank, knowing that trouble was coming.
Anping victory, but never thought that it was the enemy's strategy to lure the enemy, with 50,000 people to lure the enemy, lure out of the Anping army, 10,000 enemy troops to attack the city, there are enemy troops in the city, take the opportunity to take Anping Prefecture in one fell swoop, after getting the news, the Anping army quickly returned to the city to help, unexpectedly the city changed hands, in desperation, the main general ordered to attack the city, the evening to recapture Anping, but nearly 40,000 dead and wounded.
However, it was only 40,000 casualties, but unfortunately after entering the city, it was found that Anping was too badly damaged, with countless casualties among ordinary people, and even several granaries were destroyed.
"Rubbish, it's all rubbish!"
Xia Yuan's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, and he kicked over the table, no wonder Xia Yuan was so angry, there have been frequent wars in the past few years, and fools know that there must be a war between the two countries, so in the past few years, the five states of Zhanbu have been constantly stockpiling grain and grass, although they have lost 60,000, but Anping's millions of deniers of grain and grass have also been destroyed.
Moreover, if there is no food, the Anping army will mutiniate if it is not done well, and the potential crisis is too great.
"Order, Pingzhou, Wanhua, Changping, and Longping each mobilize 200,000 denier of grain and grass to solve the danger of Anping, and Hezhou and Tianping Prefecture should hurry up to raise grain and grass to transport grain, and be sure to raise 500,000 denier of grain and grass within 20 days to arrive in Anping!"
At this time, an old man with gray temples stood up: "Holy Lord, the old minister impeached Anping Longwei General He Yongqing for dereliction of duty!"
"Reconsideration!"
......
Wu Yangui, the head of the speech officer, immediately jumped out, and several other speech officials also asked for the impeachment of He Yongqing, Xia Yuan is really angry, Xia Yuan is not a fool, it will be taboo to change in wartime, if it is He Yongqing's incompetence, the key is that the enemy is too ruthless and cunning, and he actually dispatched 50,000 people as bait, not to mention Heqing, he is estimated to choose to go out of the city to annihilate the enemy.
Of course, He Yongqing did have a dereliction of duty, that is, it was too careless to leave only 5,000 people to guard the city.
"I know the impeachment, if you old men can lead the troops to the battle, I will be approved!"
Xia Yuan stared coldly at Wu Yangui and a few old men, and after speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, and the faces of Wu Yangui and several officials behind him instantly turned red, joking, is it the material that leads the troops to fight!
In Great Xia, the speech official can be said to be the most incompatible with the military generals, thanks to the founding emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, the first emperor of Great Xia once had a posthumous photo, and the speech official is not responsible, that is, the speech official can participate in anyone, even if he joins the emperor, it is fine.
However, it is not so easy to be a speech official, you must be a university scholar, but not just a civil official can be a speech official, there is only one role of the official, impeachment, to be precise, is to restrain military generals.
The weapon of the soldier is the core of a country, but the soldier is also the most dangerous and difficult to control, and there must be some restraint and restraint.
University scholars are different, college scholars can be said to be all over the world, there are many disciples, even in the army, there is no shortage of disciples, can play a big role in restricting.
Of course, at the beginning, the ability to restrain was much worse, but the emperor would pull the shelf! Gradually, the prestige of the generals gradually decreased, and finally the current situation was formed.
As for the speech officials, it is used to fighting against the military generals, what are they afraid of with the support of the emperor, and the military generals are also the most hated officials, and in the long run, the situation of civil and military confrontation has been formed, but now the form is different, if Xia Yuan, the emperor, is still a civil official, it is estimated that the Great Xia Kingdom will really die.
There are a few civil officials in the Manchu Dynasty available, let them do things with the mud, embezzle and accept bribes, and tear each other down, but it is better to lead troops to fight, and hand over the fate of the Great Xia Kingdom to these people, it is difficult for the Great Xia to be destroyed, which Xia Yuan does not understand and does not need to be an emperor.
And the news of Anping's defeat spread quickly, Shen Mufeng got the exact news on the fourth day, for the war in the era of cold weapons, Shen Mufeng felt helpless, especially the national war, it is nothing to fight for ten or twenty years, as long as the regime of a country is not overthrown, then it will inevitably go on endlessly, until the winner is decided.
Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the War of Resistance, Northeast China was occupied for seven years, plus the next seven years of the War of Resistance, the real anti-Japanese time was actually 14 years, and it took 14 years to drive the little Japanese devils out of the country, that is still the era of firearms, not to mention the period of cold weapons now.
Shen Mufeng doesn't like war, but war is the most beneficial to Shen Mufeng, because only war can disrupt the situation and allow Shen Mufeng to take advantage of it.
But the problem is that the real victims of the war are the common people, the people are displaced, bandits are rampant, and the slaughter of cities is even more commonplace, and there are even some armies who do not hesitate to make meritorious deeds, doing the good and risky things, and the killing is carried out all the time, which is also the most helpless thing for Shen Mufeng.
