The capital of Great Xia, on the main hall of the Imperial Palace.

Xia Gang's eyes were slightly closed, and his chest was undulating.

After a long time, Fang calmed down, but the trembling voice in his tone obviously suppressed the anger!

"Uncle Huang has been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, it took three months for Chen Bing Huaibei, facing a Lu An who has no experience in leading troops, and the total strength of the other party is only more than 3,000 people, and the 200,000 army actually only brought back sixty-four horsemen?!"

Xia Yongtu bowed to the ground and bowed again, embarrassed.

"The old minister knows that his guilt is unforgivable, and he has no intention of justifying this fiasco."

"Desperately fleeing back, just to report to His Majesty."

"Although Lu An has no experience in leading troops, with more than 3,000 troops under his command and only more than 1,000 combatants, he has a powerful killing weapon in his hand, which is extremely powerful, and it is really not blocked by manpower!"

"My Great Xia soldiers have never seen that kind of weapon, and they have suffered heavy casualties in a hurry."

"What's even more terrifying is not the lethality of that little black ball, but the deterrent power!"

"Countless soldiers are not killed or injured by the lethality of the little black ball, but the fear that arises after seeing and hearing about it."

"Even before Lao Chen personally led his troops to pursue Lu An, there were rumors in the barracks that Lu An was the son of the gods, and the thunder descended into the world!"

"The old minister is willing to take the unshirkable responsibility for this fiasco, I just ask Your Majesty to be careful of Lu An's mysterious weapon!"

"Huh!" Xia Gang sneered a few times when he heard this, and then looked at the ministers of the court indifferently, "The sixth prince is not in a good position, resulting in the loss of more than 200,000 yuan in our army, how to deal with it, the secretary can speak freely." ”

Xia Gang's words fell, and Prime Minister Zhao You was the first to come out and play, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the defeat of the six princes is already an unforgivable crime." ”

"What's even more odious is that in order to get rid of the crime, the sixth prince actually made up some little black ball out of thin air, intending to put all the blame on the little black ball, which is obviously suspected of bullying the king, and his heart can be punished!"

"Besides, the Sixth Prince's move not only has the intention of making a strong name for the traitor Lu Anzhuang, but also has the great crime of confusing the army!"

"If the words of the sixth prince get out, the army's heart will be chaotic!"

"In view of this, the minister suggests that Your Majesty punish him severely, so as not to spread rumors from the government and the opposition, the army's morale is unstable, and the people's will is turned against him, shaking the foundation of my Great Xia!"

As early as Zhao You came back from his envoy to Jiankang, Xia Yongtu openly suggested that Zhao You be severely punished in the court.

Therefore, the two have long been on the same page.

This time Xia Yongtu returned from a fiasco, and Zhao You naturally had to seize the opportunity to fight back.

However, You's accusation against Xia Yongtu is indeed not out of nowhere, and some people in the DPRK and China have long been unhappy with Xia Yongtu, so after Zhao You finished speaking, someone immediately echoed him.

Soon, the courtiers overwhelmingly supported Zhao You's opinion.

On the side of the generals, Fuwei General Luo Ming and Zhenwei General Zhao Gang never spoke, but glanced at each other from time to time, with a thick complex color in their eyes.

They also didn't expect that Lu An, who had never had experience in leading troops, would defeat Xia Yongtu in the first battle, and only brought back 64 horsemen from 200,000 troops!

When did their fourth brother become so powerful?

Could it be that the fourth brother, the prince of the former dynasty, is really destiny?

As for the little black ball mentioned by Xia Yongtu......

Before they saw it with their own eyes, in fact, like Zhao You, they thought it was just a rhetoric from Xia Yongtu to get rid of his crimes.

However, because of the delicate relationship with Lu An, neither of them tacitly expressed their stance on Xia Yongtu's defeat.

In the face of the unanimous crusade of the ministers, Xia Yongtu felt bitter in his heart, but he did not defend himself.

Defeat is defeat.

And again a fiasco.

The most aggrieved thing is still defeated in the hands of Lu An's guy!

What else is there to argue with?

After listening to the voices of the ministers, Xia Gang was expressionless, and said in a deep voice, "Uncle Huang's defeat this time is indeed an unforgivable crime. ”

"I remembered that Uncle Huang had done his best for the court over the years, and he made great contributions."

"From now on, the six princes will be reduced to a commoner and demoted to a commoner."

When Xia Yongtu heard this, instead of complaining, he felt a sense of relief, and immediately kowtowed to thank him, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing you." ”

After that, Xia Yongtu won the crown on the spot and retreated step by step, until Xiao Se's figure disappeared above the main hall.

Xia Yongtu, the sixth prince who has been in the limelight for nearly 20 years, finally came to a bleak end.

The deliberations in the main hall are still going on.

Xia Gang glanced at the general, and after his gaze stayed on Luo Ming and Zhao Gang for a moment, he then fell on Chen Yongping, the squire of the military department.

"According to the itinerary and route of the traitor Lu An, they should be in the area of Yingcheng now."

"Chen Qing, the squire of the military department, immediately lead 5,000 troops to Xiangzhou, and lead the military forces of Xiangzhou, we must intercept the traitor Lu An in Xiangzhou and capture him back to Beijing!"

Chen Yongping came out of class, "Weichen leads the order!" ”

Xia Gang naturally didn't believe what Xia Yongtu said, a mere 3,000 rabble, let Chen Yongping transfer 5,000 troops from the capital to pursue, he already paid enough attention to Lu An's strength.

It's just that he still underestimated Lu An's itinerary.

Just as Chen Yongping sent his troops to leave Beijing, Lu An had already led his troops into the border of Xiangzhou.

And the follow-up army led by Chu Yin, while constantly receiving the surrendered Xia soldiers, also continued to diagnose and treat the injured Xia soldiers according to Lu An's intentions, so that Chu Yin's team expanded dramatically from the initial 20,000 to more than 100,000!

Since the day Xia Yongtu resigned as a citizen, newspapers from all over the country have been sent to the capital like snowflakes.

"Your Majesty, Yuzhou, Xiangcheng County, Sizhou, Hanoi County, and Binh Duong County have fallen one after another."

"Where the traitor Lu An passed, he was devastated, like walking on the ground, and Chu Yin led troops to occupy it one after another in the rear, and in just half a month, three states and eleven counties have fallen into the hands of the traitor."

"In addition, Liang County, Gaoping, Dongping and Pingyang Counties, although they are not the places where the traitor Lu An passed, also sent people to present a letter of surrender to Chu Yin......"

For several days, Xia Gang received reports one after another, all of which were unfavorable news about the fall of various places, which made him more and more angry.

However, that's not all.

Soon, the news of the death of Chen Yongping, a soldier sent to Xiangzhou, also came back.

"What?!"

Xia Gang looked at Sun Yue, the pioneer of the army who knelt down below, in shock, "Chen Yongping died in battle?" ”

Sun Yue, who was embarrassed, one of his arms had been blown away, knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "Your Majesty, Lord Chen took us to chase us to Shangdang County, and without even seeing the enemy, we were blown up by a small black ball falling from the sky!" ”

"Lord Chen's bones were left in the bombing on the spot, and the last general escaped with his life, and only fled back with less than 200 people."

Wow –

After listening to Sun Yue's recital, Xia Gang's complexion changed greatly, and the ministers in the court also panicked.

"So it seems...... Did I wronged the emperor's uncle? ”

Xia Gang muttered to himself, while his brain was racing rapidly.

Even if he really wronged Xia Yongtu, Xia Gang naturally would not easily take back his fate.

The top priority is to come up with a way to deal with it as soon as possible!

"Sun Qing, Zhao Xiang, Wu Qing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, you follow me to the imperial study!"

Hurriedly leaving a sentence, Xia Gang got up and left with a heavy face, and Sun Yue, Zhao You and Wu Zhongda, the secretary of the military department, followed closely.
