Chapter 1221: The World Shakes (2)
Chudu.
Although it is not far away, it is much warmer than Liaodong.
At this moment, it is a crisp autumn air and a pleasant temperature.
Of course. Its city size, population size, commerce and culture are all top-notch.
Xiangguo Temple, Chenghuang Temple, Water Moon Temple, etc., the homes of these monks and Taoists, incense is prosperous, plus small vendors such as incense and candles, calligraphy and painting, and fortune-telling in the temple.
The road in front of them is always bustling and noisy.
Everywhere you can see the readers, the sons and daughters of the family.
Merchants from the Western Regions, merchants from the Southern Barbarians, Slavic merchants, etc., goods from all over the world converged.
No matter which aspect it is, it crushes the capital of the Han Kingdom.
Jiang County.
Not to mention Chudu, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Chengdu and other big cities can crush Jiang County.
Even in the Central Plains, the slightly larger cities can keep pace with Jiang County.
Compared with military strength alone, the state of Chu is a little finger.
But in terms of the land and resources, the population is prosperous. The state of Chu is completely superior to any country in the world.
In a word. Chudu is really a place of emperors, a heroic city in the world.
"Da Da Da !!!"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way."
"Get out of !!!" A group of cavalry galloped along the avenue from north to south, and everywhere it passed, whether it was a flat-headed common man or a son and brother on horseback, all of them were cursing, and if they encountered someone who did not have long eyes, the whip was swung out, and the skin was opened.
Attract chickens and dogs to jump on the road.
"The faces of these people are as black as the bottom of a pot. What happened? ”
"At the feet of the dignified son of heaven, these soldiers galloped and disregarded human life. It's really lawless. ”
Passers-by either didn't know why, or were angry, but there were also a few people whose faces changed slightly, gave up their travel plans, and returned to Chudu.
These soldiers are not ordinary.
Strong momentum.
It may be that the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan Xiong has no self.
What else could be going on in this north?
But when you think about it, it's incredible. Aren't the Han and Chu kingdoms at peace? The imperial court also carefully selected many beauties and splendidly sent them over.
The Han Kingdom also returned a lot of Dongzhu and ginseng.
How could this be done again?
But what if it's marked?
That's the Liaodong Tiger of the Han Dynasty. Destroying Goguryeo, capturing Fusang, Tu Mengyuan, and rejecting the Slavs, in the history of China for thousands of years, a rare king who is brave and good at fighting.
Such a guy feels cold when he hears the name.
Although Shanhaiguan is strong, it may not be able to stop it.
These cavalry are indeed bearless soldiers, and after they entered the Chu capital, they disappeared without a trace like a stone sinking into the sea.
Don't panic.
Keep the news hidden so that it doesn't cause unrest.
But the news is certainly not hidden.
It's just a matter of announcing early and late.
Palace.
Inside the Temple of Nourishing the Heart. The old Daojun Emperor, dressed in Taoist robes, stood on the throne, his face was hard to see, and he roared at the ministers standing below: "What the hell is going on. ”
"You don't all say it. After the annexation of Fusang, Liaodong, Goguryeo, and Mongyuan. Has Wu Nian's appetite been satisfied? ”
"He's going to have to think about what is going on. Turned to the internal management and passed on the country to the children and grandchildren. ”
"What do you say, it's a three-kingdom pattern now."
"Wu Nian wants to unite with me against the Slavs."
"It is also said that Wu Nian has been fighting in the south and the north for decades, and it is common for him to be injured and bleed, and now his body is extremely weak, and he will live in a few years?"
"He is now leading 800,000 horses and 800,000 troops south. I know that, too. This is an imaginary number. But 800,000 to half is always 400,000, right? In half, there are still 200,000. ”
"Not to mention people like Wu Nian, even if they are tens of thousands of soldiers, they have to be guarded against."
"Xiang Yu often defeated hundreds of thousands of people with tens of thousands of people."
"Now Wu Nian is calling."
"Go straight to Shanhaiguan."
"If you lose Shanhaiguan, it will be Chudu. Do you want me to fight him to the death in the capital? ”
"Ah?!!!!h
Emperor Daojun roared loudly, without panting. After saying that, he couldn't stand it anymore, and sat on the throne panting.
"Your Majesty!! Your Majesty. The eunuch beside him, who was also dressed as a Taoist priest, hurriedly stepped forward to help Emperor Daojun smooth his back.
Emperor Daojun relented, raised his head and looked at the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs with his eyes breathing.
It's so annoying.
These guys, these guys.
The ministers of civil and military affairs were all trained with their heads bowed, and they did not say a word. A small number of people are slandered in the belly.
Although the country has become like this, the power is still firmly held by you.
Be.
We all participated in the matter of making peace with Wu Nian.
Hundreds of thousands of displaced people in Shaanxi were also sent by us.
But aren't you all the ones who make the decision?
There were also many people in the court who opposed it.
What to say about seeking skin and enemies with tigers.
Some even knelt outside the noon gate to admonish.
Guozijian students make trouble.
You stopped them.
Now that something has gone wrong, what is the point of you throwing the blame on us.
The biggest problem of Chu was that Emperor Daojun had lived too long.
It's so alive.
Among the emperors of the Great Chu Dynasty, they are the most alive people.
When Wu Nian was rising, when he was dealing with the Chu State. The cabinet ministers of the imperial court are all dead.
The current cabinet was added later.
If that batch is the first generation.
Now there are three generations in the cabinet.
And no matter who makes up for it, you have to deal with Emperor Daojun. Fish begins to rot from the head.
Nothing good.
Power was also firmly in the hands of Emperor Daojun.
When Emperor Daojun saw these wood carving clay sculptures, the evil fire in his heart had nowhere to vent. But he held back and didn't splash and roll.
Special code.
Now it's really burning eyebrows, and it's hard to lose the country, and the ancestral graves are gone.
Suspend the cultivation of immortals.
Do something.
Emperor Daojun took a deep breath, slowed down his tone, and said, "What should I do now?" ”
The cabinet ministers did not speak, but lowered their heads as if to speak.
You can't see me, you can't see me.
The six Shangshu didn't open their mouths when they saw the big guy in front of them, and they didn't open their mouths obediently.
It was still a young military official who stood up, bowed his hand to Emperor Daojun, and said, "Your Majesty." Although the thief is fierce, I have a strong pass. The bear has no enemy of 10,000 people, and the 80,000 horse infantry army is majestic. Don't worry. It's just military supplies, and you need to be cautious. ”
"I thought. Now it is time to immediately send officials to various places to send military supplies north. ”
"Also. To boost the morale of the front. Regardless of the generals, the soldiers will be rewarded as appropriate. ”
"Your Majesty. Mr. Chen is right. My emperor Chu is rich in resources, and there are Xiongguan barriers. Just hold your ground. Wu Nian is powerless. ”
"Your Majesty. Mr. Chen is absolutely right. Please reward the soldiers and compassionate the generals. ”
There are still people in the Chu Dynasty. Many young officials stood up, supporting the military officials who spoke first, while stabilizing the spirit of Emperor Daojun.
Saved the emperor.
But don't be frightened, move the capital to Nanjing, or wander to Bashu.
That's all over.
Seeing this, Emperor Daojun calmed down and said, "Okay. Do what you do. Then, his face showed anger, and he looked at Ding Chengyuan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and said, "But." Someone must always be responsible for the negotiation of peace. ”
"Ding Shilang. I order you to be an envoy and go to Shanhaiguan. ”
"If you can convince Wu Nian to withdraw from the army. I have a lot of rewards. If you can't, you don't have to come back. ”
Emperor Daojun grabbed the cushion on the throne with both hands, and his voice was full of emotion.
Ding Chengyuan's face turned pale, showing a look of fear, but he didn't dare to resist, bent down and lowered his head, and said, "Yes." ”
