Chapter 402: Counseling Countermeasures
Three days later, the specific battle report from the front came again, confirming what the previous herald had said.
Daqian's 500,000 army was really annihilated under the leadership of Emperor Tianshun's quick success!
The worst thing is that Beiyan feels that this is a golden opportunity to destroy the great cadres in one fell swoop!
Therefore, 300,000 soldiers and horses were gathered, and they were crossing the Yayu Mountain Range and killing violently.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, the garrison troops of various counties from the Yayu Mountains to the Qiandu area were almost requisitioned and transferred by Emperor Tianshun when he went out before.
In addition, from the south of the Yayu Mountains to the north of Qiandu, the terrain is mostly flat.
Therefore, if Beiyan is really allowed to cross the Yayu Mountain Range, they may drive straight into it without hindrance! One hit the Great Dry Country!
Three days later, at the court meeting, there was no one on the high dragon chair in the Qiande Palace.
The civil and military officials stood in two columns, and the military attachés had relatives in their hearts, and they no longer had the posture of showing off their military might.
The civil servants were worried, as if a catastrophe was coming.
Seeing their posture, Wei Qing stood up, snorted coldly, and said, "I summoned you here today to come up with a way to resist Beiyan, not to let you sigh!" ”
"Since ancient times, the food of the king, the matter of loyalty."
"You are all cadres, you have been since ancient times, and now you are standing on the top of the Great Qian's court."
"The sky is falling, so naturally we have to bear it!"
"If not, by whom? Can't rely on this city full of old and weak women and children? ”
When civil and military officials heard this, they were silent, some were ashamed of themselves, and some were dismissive.
The more pragmatic one was sarcastic: "Wei Xiang said it nicely, that's a full 300,000 army, what can we do?" ”
"If it's before, it's not necessarily that you can't defend one or two."
"But now, Your Majesty has requisitioned a full 500,000 troops to go on the expedition, but all of them have been burned, and there are no bones left."
"Nowadays, the army in the city of Qiandu is pitifully small, and if you put it together, you can come up with 30,000 people at most."
"It's only 30,000 people, how can you fight with 300,000 people?"
"Is Wei Xiang joking? Or do you want our group of civilian officials to also go to the battlefield for hand-to-hand combat? Someone was indignant and loudly reprimanded Wei Qing.
Wei Qing didn't speak, just listened quietly.
When he finished speaking, he asked, "Why not?" ”
"Although we are Confucian scholars in green shirts, we can also carry a three-foot sword to keep the enemy out of the country!"
"The soldiers can sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths for the great cadres and fight with blood, why can't we?"
"Study, whether it is the church of the saints, or the classics of the Guozijian, there is no book that tells us that after becoming a Confucian scholar, we must not go into battle to kill the enemy and defend the country."
"Today, the old man put his words here!"
"Don't say that Beiyan only came with 300,000 people, that is, 3 million people, we must not be afraid, fight to the death!"
"If all 30,000 soldiers in the city are dead, then the military attachés will take the top! If the military attaches die, then the civilian officials will be on top! ”
"Unless we die, we will never let Beiyan break through the city!"
After Wei Qing said this, the entire Qiande Hall fell into a dead silence.
Some people are dumbfounded, some people are extremely admiring, but some people are frowning.
After a long time, someone said: "We all know Prime Minister Wei's heart for the country and the people, and to defend the Qiandu." ”
"It's just that as the old saying goes, a gentleman should do what he can, and his mantis arm should be a car, like a mayfly shaking a tree, but he can't laugh at himself."
"The prime minister wants to be loyal to the great cadres, so he can change his ways, why is he so extreme?"
Someone said.
When Wei Qing heard this, he directly ignored it.
What he said just now was just a sign of determination.
In such a desperate situation, if no one stands up and takes the lead in resisting, then the result is obvious.
When the Northern Yan soldiers come to the city, I am afraid that it will not take three days, and the city will be destroyed.
But if you are actively preparing for war, 30,000 people may not be unbearable.
Because of the big dry, there are still the last few hole cards.
Of course, he didn't expect everyone to have the same awareness and determination as he did.
He just wanted to show his determination to infect as many people as possible and prevent them from abandoning the city and fleeing.
It's just that faith and determination alone are not enough, and they must also be given hope to live.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is nowhere near as bad as you think."
"The 300,000 army of Northern Yan seems to be powerful."
"In fact, I have trekked through mountains and rivers, and when I come to my Qiandu City, I must be exhausted."
"And our army is recuperating, and he is doing his best, if he fights hard, he is just defending for a while, and it should not be difficult."
After saying this, someone retorted: "How ambitious I am to be Wei Xiang, in the end, it is just a period of defense." ”
"If we wait for the Northern Yan army to recover and its combat strength recovers, won't we still be killed?"
Wei Qing looked at him, as if he was waiting for this sentence, his tone sped up a little, and said, "Definitely!" ”
"You must have forgotten that I still have a king of Zhenbei!"
Rumble!
As soon as these words came out, for some reason, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty seemed to suddenly have confidence, and their eyes lit up.
Seeing this, Wei Qing couldn't help but nod secretly.
Among the many hole cards of Daqian, the king of Zhenbei, as one of the Daqian Optimus Primes, is undoubtedly the most weighty and the most reassuring one.
As long as this one is moved out, the civil and military officials will undoubtedly be more backbone and more hopeful, and they will not think of abandoning the city and fleeing, as long as they do not abandon the city and flee, then there is still hope for everything.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although the king of Zhenbei was sent to Canglan County by the first emperor to supervise the training of the navy, he is still the prince of my Daqian, and now that Daqian is in trouble, it is impossible for him to ignore it."
"Canglan County is some distance from Qiandu, but as long as we hold on for a while, wait for the king of Zhenbei to arrive in Qiandu, and use his old man's troops when he was guarding the northern frontier to kill Beiyan, but it will be easy!"
When everyone heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief, but some people still raised doubts: "King Zhenbei, will he come?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the hearts of everyone who had just taken a breath chuckled again.
The imperial court, or the first emperor, did not have a very good attitude towards the king of Zhenbei.
If nothing else, just one recent thing.
The king of Zhenbei won a great victory in northern Xinjiang and captured three counties.
The imperial court did not have the slightest reward, and it was also promoted and degraded, and asked him to go to Canglan County to supervise the training of a water master.
You must know that since the king of Zhenbei has been in the army, he has always brought the army!
Supervising the sailor? Isn't that a joke!
Therefore, it is certain that the king of Zhenbei is dissatisfied with the imperial court.
It's just that Emperor Renxuan was still there at that time, Long Wei was hehe, and King Zhenbei might not dare to attack.
But now, let alone Emperor Renxuan, even Emperor Tianshun is gone.
In the face of such a court, will the king of Zhenbei really listen to the announcement?
