"The husband was angry, and the blood splattered three feet; The Son of Heaven is angry, and the corpses are all over the field, so the Son of Heaven should be more cautious when using soldiers."

In Emperor Xing's imperial study, Zhao Puren, the chief assistant of Xingguo, and Chen Can, the general, as well as the six Shangshu cadres, were all there. Now he can't kneel deeply, and the one who persuades Emperor Xing to calm his anger and think twice is Du Zhiping, the head of the household.

The eight-hundred-mile urgent document from Chaotian Pass has not been touched since it was spread out on the imperial table by His Majesty, but the huge words "Northwest Army, Dead" at the beginning are the ministers who have never deliberately raised their eyes, and they are as dazzling as the hanging sun.

His Majesty was furious, and about 200,000 soldiers and horses from the three provinces of Longyou, Hedong and Hebei had already taken the military department to go to the grassland on the same day, but some of you obviously felt that this move was too reckless, so there was a matter of this household department Shangshu kneeling in the imperial study late at night.

Hearing Du Zhiping's words, the young Xing Emperor's face turned red because of his anger, and the anger in his eyes was almost substantial, "According to Du Qing's meaning, my country, the inheritance left by my ancestors, I will give it to the grassland Khan for nothing?" With that, the glass lamp on the royal table was thrown down by him, rolled and rolled, and fell right at the feet of Zaifu Zhao Puren.

Zai Fu Zhao Puren slowly bent down to pick up the glass lamp, and after carefully wiping it with his robe, he gently took two steps forward and put it in its place.

"Your Majesty, the history book of this dynasty is Jianyun: The previous dynasty was tyrannical, and the people were not happy. The ancestor Meng was ordered by heaven to raise troops in the countryside. After ten years, Bu Rende, the common people's grievances, the establishment of the Gangchang, the Zhengsheji, the establishment of the dynasty. The four seas are peaceful, the ancestors have a great wish, rejuvenate the country, rejuvenate the people, and rejuvenate the world, so the country name is "Xing". Since the establishment of this dynasty, the ancestors have encouraged governance, reduced taxes and lightly punished, and the people have food, scholars, and businesses, each performing its own duties and earnings. It is the great wish of the ancestors, and then there is always. ”

Zhao Puren bowed slightly, "Your Majesty, the history book is just more than 100 words, how can it be said that the royal ancestors fought the hardships of the country." is a storyteller in the market, and he can also tell countless entrepreneurial stories. But most of those things are either compiled or compiled, or they are just adding oil and vinegar, and they can't be done accurately. ”

"For example, in the battle where the ancestor laid the foundation, the ancestor Chen Bing attacked the city several times in front of Luoyang Pass, but the former general Yang Qi could not hold it, so it was a stalemate for several months. The ancestors surrounded but to no avail, and the supplies were temporarily lacking, so they had to retreat and advance slowly, and then look for a good opportunity. Who knows that it is a thunderstorm in the night, bright as day, as far as the eye can see, the head of Luoyang City is full of rolling thunder, and the guards in the city are taken in Tianwei, and there is no will to fight. The ancestors were resolute, raised troops and marched again, before reaching the pass, they heard someone shouting at the head of the city: the sky is angry and people are resentful, the number of this vitality has been exhausted, and the young general Zheng Donghua respectfully invited the troops to enter the city. ”

"Just like the beginning of the ancestors' army, the talent of the generals is very scarce. The ancestors prayed to the heavens and descended talents without sticking to one pattern, and the heavens were also moved, so they sent Chen, Wang, and Zhu to go down to earth to help the ancestors calm the previous dynasty. The three generals are brave and invincible. The ancestors had this divine help, so in just a few years, they were able to set the Central Plains and create today's dynasty. ”

There are many such anecdotal stories, although they are far from the facts, but they are enough to illustrate the difficulties of our ancestors' entrepreneurship. But fortunately, the royal descendants, Ming Jun came out one after another. Not to mention the foundation of the Daxing Dynasty, it is also the Pingnan Wilderness, the Western Desert, and the Northern Barbarian, all the way to the present. ”

"A small lamp, although it is not much precious, is also a royal thing. Every brick and tile I am happy with is earned by my ancestors, and I hope that Your Majesty will cherish it."

Emperor Xing looked at Zaifu in front of him, who now had gray temples, in the past, it was the golden dragon chair that he held His Majesty the Emperor on, and it was also him, next to the dragon chair, who stood sideways for a whole year. The big and small affairs of the court, all of which are powerful, are all explained by him to His Majesty the Emperor, so that His Majesty the Emperor can familiarize himself with government affairs as soon as possible and prepare for the future pro-government. "What a loyal servant! Heh," the emperor thought.

"What Zai Fu said is that I remember," Emperor Xing sat down on the dragon chair again, reached out and picked up the lamp and rubbed it carefully, "Since Lord Du thinks that my method of raising troops on the grassland is inappropriate, then according to Du Aiqing's opinion, what should I do now?" ”

Du Zhiping was sincerely frightened, kowtowed, "Regarding the use of soldiers, the minister thought that General Chen and Master Tong should be invited."

The lamp in Emperor Xing's hand suddenly clenched, and the anger in his heart was even worse, but at a glance, he caught a glimpse of Zhao Puren, who had closed his eyes and recuperated, and he regained his majestic atmosphere of the Son of Heaven.

"What do you think?"

Tong Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has the duty of transferring troops and sending generals. The use of soldiers is really a matter of their part. But the difficulty is that at this moment, in front of him, there is still a general Chen Can who is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses.

Chen Can is the former Zaifu Zhao Puren said that after the Chen family. Several generations of the family have been humerus in the court, and the ancestors of the Chen family accompanied the first emperor to expand the territory and level the world. In this dynasty alone, the various generals trained by the Chen family for Great Qin can also exceed the number of hands and feet; Among the generals of the twelve realms in the world, I am afraid that half of them are from the Chen family.

So at this moment, although His Majesty the Emperor had already ordered himself, Tong Yan still didn't say anything, didn't he see that His Majesty was in full swing and wanted to level the grassland in one fell swoop, at this time, did he come to ask his own opinion again? He shook his head imperceptibly.

Emperor Xing saw Tong Yan's subtle movements, and secretly snorted coldly, "What do you think of General Chen?"

As early as before entering the palace, it was about dusk, Wang Wenhua, the second eldest of the eight horsemen of Yanshan, had already returned to the general's mansion, and when he first heard the news of the death of the Northwest Army, Chen Can, who had always been moody, couldn't help but be shocked, and his face was stunned.

Li Yannian of the Northwest Province, although he did not pull it by himself, he also knew that this person had always been decent, and he was even more cautious when it came to using soldiers. In summary, the development is insufficient, but the success is more than enough. Now that the generals of the Northwest Province are all dead, and they are dying thousands of miles deep into the grassland, how can it not make people feel strange.

However, the top priority at the moment is not to care about the truth of this matter, let alone to punish the eight people in the house for leaving the house without permission. Therefore, Chen Can asked Wang Wenhua a question, "Where is the boss?" ”

Wang Wenhua didn't know the general's concerns, so he replied to the arrangements of the boss Baijia scholar one by one: he rushed back to the mansion before Wu Youfang's recital; The third Zhao Mo went to the Taishou Mansion and copied the newspaper left by Li Yannian; The seventh Song Zhiyi had already rushed to Longyou Road to find General Chen Qiushui and asked him to prepare early; On the other side of the grassland, it is estimated that the fifth and sixth will go to listen to the truth.

The boss Baijia scholar coped properly, and Chen Can was slightly relieved. But there was no news in the palace yet, so he had to wait. As for leaving for the palace now? If this is the case, then His Majesty the Emperor will probably be even more uneasy.

At this moment, His Majesty the Emperor finally asked himself, Chen Can did not feel that it had reached the point of a large-scale invasion, so he suggested that the Longyou Road, which was closest to the Northwest Road, should divide the troops and rush to Chaotian Pass to prevent the grassland from entering the pass. At the same time, soldiers from various counties and counties in the northwest province were dispatched to Chaotian Pass to assist in the defense.

"That Tong, what General Chen said, is it difficult to transfer?"

Tong Yan knew that he would definitely not be able to hide at this moment, "Go back to Your Majesty, the grassland will enter the customs, and the consequences will be unimaginable." The minister thought that what General Chen said was very good for the current situation."
