Chapter 0212: Escape
If the court wants to be a traitor and a minister, how much more than a Sunan Cheng?
Cheng Kanghou, who was promoted to the crown prince at the end of last year, is now also thinking about it.
At the beginning of last year, he took over the post of imperial envoy of the Imperial Inspectorate, and at the end of the year, he became the prince's teacher.
There is also a marquis, which can be regarded as a great future.
Far more trusted by His Majesty than when he supported the Three Princes.
Together with Tang Taishi and He Dudu, he is the most powerful of the three ministers today.
Of course, there are also Junyi Hou, General Liu, King Jing, and Dali Temple Yu Jinshu, all of which are trusted courtiers by His Majesty.
But none of these people clearly expressed their desire to fight.
Their attitude is basically to respect His Majesty, and His Majesty is whatever he says.
There are also people who argue for the battle, but unfortunately......
The emperor's final decision was to hold on.
It will increase troops, send food and grass, but it will not go to war.
He tried to keep the enemy out of Xiongshan Pass.
In the study in the front yard of Chengkanghou's mansion, the father and son sat silently for a long time.
Or did Su Yicheng break the silence first: "That's it?" Don't fight? ”
"You sit down." Su Jincheng frowned.
Su Yicheng took a deep breath and sat down: "Is that all?" Can Xiongshan Pass withstand it? ”
"Your Majesty's decree has been issued." Cheng Kang Hou surging.
There was silence again.
“…… South, settle down. This settles down, and there is no need to wait. Su Yingqu said suddenly.
The meaning of these words was too negative, and the crowd was silent for a while.
Everyone else was cold and ugly, and Su Yicheng couldn't accept it at all.
Maybe he has a relatively simple personality, or maybe he was pampered and grew up.
He couldn't accept that the circumstances in which he lived would suddenly become like this.
So he was devastated: "Why? My Dayuan soldiers are strong and strong, why can't I fight? ”
"Strong soldiers?" Cheng Kanghou put down the tea bowl: "What do you know?" ”
"Where is there a strong soldier? Because the Northwest Army had no food and grass, it handed over local taxes to the army. The drought in the north, the flood in the south, and the face relief have not been carried out properly. Luancheng was shaken, and it almost caused a civil uprising. Now the north is in a hurry again......" Su Nancheng sighed and shook his head.
"Then don't you fight? If...... What if the Beiyi people broke the Xiongshan Pass? It's really going to be ...... Moving south? Su Yicheng asked with difficulty.
】
No one could answer him.
After a long time, Sunan Cheng said: "What if you want to fight?" Your Majesty does not want to. ”
He didn't want to, so there was no way to get the whole country to twist into a rope. There is no way to lead everyone to resist as if they were dead.
The emperor was full of fear, how could the people below have that confidence?
Su Yicheng didn't speak anymore, but there was no trace of freshness on his beautiful face, like a sculpture.
No one comforted him.
Everyone was very anxious.
On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, worse news came.
Outside Jinshan Pass, another team of soldiers and horses of the Beiyi people had arrived, and it was the 80,000 army led by a prince of Beiyi.
By the time the news reached the capital, there was already a war going on there.
Su Nancheng could only quickly tell the people of Hongyan Mountain to withdraw to Xinyang quickly, otherwise they would all be left dead.
And the court has already quarreled into a pot of porridge.
Most people proposed peace and took money to quell the war, but no one wanted to be the one who went to sue for peace.
This person needs to have a certain official position, otherwise the Beiyi people will not recognize it.
But who wants to take risks with a person of high power?
In fact, it is best to send a prince, but who goes?
Someone even suggested that the prince go.
But this time, there are many people who support the crown prince. It's not that I really love him, but if the prince is injured at this time, it will really be over.
And there was no result. is a huge dynasty, and everyone seems to be dragging on a strategy for a day.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.
However, Xiongshan Pass, which is far away at the border, has been baptized by war.
General Zuo fought hard, but unfortunately it was still useless.
The first batch of grain and grass has been delivered, but reinforcements have not yet arrived.
He couldn't hold it anymore, the weather was freezing, the soldiers couldn't eat enough, and their clothes were not warm enough.
The broken weapons could not be replenished in time, and the morale of the army gradually collapsed.
Just when the lights were on, Xiongshan Pass ...... Broken.
The rest of the story was bloodshed.
The pass was broken, and the Beiyi people drove straight in, and General Zuo did not flee, but led the people to resist.
It's a pity that the army's spirit is broken, and there are not many people he can organize.
However, because the Beiyi people broke the Xiongshan Pass, they had the strongest fighting spirit.
If such two teams collide together, the consequences can be imagined.
General Zuo was killed in battle, and 16 people, including the deputy general, were captured.
The entire town under Xiongshan Pass was slaughtered, and countless soldiers and civilians were killed and wounded.
The sixteen captured generals were not exchanged for anything, but were tied up in the open ground in the city and executed the next day.
It wasn't a clean beheading or any other death penalty.
Rather, they were abused to death.
gouging out eyes, cutting out ears, cutting out tongues, cutting off limbs.
This is their punishment for the worst crimes.
And in their eyes, the general of Dayuan is a person who is extremely evil.
Sixteen people, as well as the body of General Zuo who was cut off after his death. Seventeen corpses no one dared to restrain them.
It's been in the middle of the city all the time.
Three days later, the capital received the news that when the Xiongshan Pass was broken, the Jinshan Pass was also broken.
Further down, there is only one Yuping Pass, and there is also the Fen River.
The Su family immediately decided to send the family roll to the south.
Su Nancheng has moved back and is sitting in the main courtyard at this time.
"Pack up your things and follow the Hou Mansion to the south first."
"This ...... Really will...... Will ......" Feng Zhujun was speechless.
"The jade screen can't stand it." Su Nancheng hadn't slept well in the past few days, and said tiredly: "Go to the south first." ”
"What about you, husband?" Feng Zhujun was eager: "You have to go too." ”
"I can't go, and anyone in the Su family who has an official position can't go." Sunan Cheng Road.
Now if the official also runs away, it will really be over.
"Childe ......" Shen Yingniang was also eager: "But if the capital is not safe, what will you do?" ”
Su Nancheng smiled: "If it really gets to that point, I will go." Pack up your things and set off the day after tomorrow. Don't worry. Cheng Ming is in the south, and he has people with him. ”
All three women had frightened and uneasy eyes.
Su Nancheng looked at Feng Zhujun: "How is your mother's family, you send someone to ask, if you want to leave, you will go with the Hou Mansion." ”
He looked at Shen and Dongmei again: "You two don't have to say it, your mother's family is not here." But you have to take all the girls in the house with you. ”
If the city is broken, the girls will be the most pitiful.
Even if the Hou Mansion is gone, I can't manage it, but I still take these few with me.
At this time, I regretted that the women in the family had not yet married, and I couldn't take care of it, so I just took it away like a girl.
Su Nancheng really doesn't like this kind of time.
