Chapter 201: Go and meet this Xu Gongmao for a while

The emperor was silent.

There is no problem with what Yao Xiaoren said, the army of the Great Chu Empire is coming, and they will not be opponents in ninety percent.

When the time comes, will his emperor take the entire Ming Empire to accompany the funeral, or will he take Chen Changfeng out to negotiate peace with the Great Chu Empire?

The emperor's mood at the moment was even worse.

The Great Chu Empire is powerful, where can they have a way to resist the Ming Empire.

Even if Chen Changfeng defeated the Southern Army of Great Chu on the front line several times, and even recaptured Yongding City, this could not completely eradicate the crisis brought by the Great Chu Empire.

"Father, the third brother is now in the hands of Li Fengxian, but the sixth brother has not moved at all, and the sons are worried that the third brother will be in danger of his life."

"And the relationship between the third brother and the sixth brother has never been very good, and the sons are worried about ......" The second prince looked like he wanted to say something.

Yao Xiaoren immediately changed color.

He didn't understand what the second prince meant.

The second prince almost didn't directly say that Chen Changfeng would not send someone to save the third prince.

The Emperor's eyes froze.

The death of the fourth prince has always made the emperor angry, and the third prince has now been taken away by Li Fengxian for a month, and Chen Changfeng has not made any movement.

It is clear that there is no intention to rescue the three princes.

But after all, the third prince is a son, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, even if he is incompetent and is caught, his father has to find a way to save him.

"Prime Minister, you immediately pass through the Ministry of War and give an order to the crown prince, so that he will rescue the third prince no matter what." The emperor ordered and looked at Yao Xiaoren.

Yao Xiaoren said that he was suffering, and when did he say this, the emperor was still worried about the life and death of the three princes.

"Yes." Yao Xiaoren responded.

……

Naturally, there was no fighting on New Year's Day.

Chen Changfeng asked Chen Qingzhi to give an order, except for today's sentry and patrol, everyone has a day off, and the meat that Li Fengxian hoarded before in the city will also be taken out for the soldiers to enjoy today.

Liu Shuwen's illness has improved a lot, and he did not continue to return to Dingnan City in the rear.

Today, Chen Changfeng has received news that a serious assassination incident has occurred in the capital of Dachu.

The Great Chu Emperor was seriously injured by the world's number one assassin and almost died.

The seven killings were fled in a hurry under the siege of Yu Linwei of the Great Chu Imperial Palace, and his right hand was cut off by Xiang Ying, the crown prince of the Great Chu Empire, and his life and death are unknown.

Seven killings had an accident, which was not good news for Chen Changfeng.

Chen Changfeng still hopes that the Seven Killings can kill the Emperor of Great Chu, so that the Ming and Great Chu will not fight again in a short time.

And the Seven Killings failed to kill the Great Chu Emperor, and the Great Chu Emperor would definitely find out that the Seven Killings were friendly with him, and would even use this as an excuse to attack the Ming Empire in an all-out way.

"Report, prince, there is news from the capital of Great Chu, and the Emperor of Great Chu will be assassinated and all blamed on our Ming Empire."

"Send 300,000 troops, commanded by Xiang Ying, the prince of Great Chu, and Xiang Hao, the eighth prince, respectively, and are coming to support Li Fengxian." The sudden news made Chen Changfeng slightly surprised.

Waving his hand to let the soldiers leave, Chen Changfeng immediately asked people to call Liu Shuwen, Chen Qingzhi and Xue Rengui.

"Prince, what's the matter?" Seeing Chen Changfeng frowning, Chen Qingzhi immediately asked.

Today's Chen Qingzhi has long been only Chen Changfeng's head, and when he saw him frowning, he immediately thought of something else.

Liu Shuwen also looked suspicious, Xue Rengui didn't make a sound, he only thought about when he would be able to really lead the army to kill the Quartet.

"There was news that the Great Chu Empire had recruited 300,000 troops, commanded by the Prince of Great Chu and the Eighth Prince of Great Chu respectively, to support Li Fengxian."

"In about a month, the army of Great Chu will be here." Chen Changfeng said slowly, with a rare trace of solemnity on his face.

Although the Great Chu Southern Army suffered a lot of losses in the previous battles, its strength was not weaker than that of the Ming Border Army.

If the Great Chu Empire had the support of these 300,000 troops, the Ming Border Army would not be an opponent at all.

Liu Shuwen's face immediately changed greatly.

The 300,000 troops of the Great Chu Empire came to help, and the gap in strength between the two sides was reversed in an instant.

If 300,000 is less than nearly 500,000, how can it be possible to win?

Even if you keep it, you can't keep it.

And Liu Shuwen knew that the Ming Empire had no troops to send, and the 100,000 people brought by the three princes were already all the military power that the Ming Empire could take out.

In this war, they only have so many people in the border army.

"Prince, this news can't be spread for the time being, otherwise the morale of the army will be turbulent." After Liu Shuwen was frightened for a short time, he immediately reminded Chen Changfeng.

The gap in strength is almost doubled, and there is already a certain gap in the quality of soldiers on both sides.

If the officers and men of the Ming border army knew this news, they would definitely be panicked.

When the time comes, I am afraid that before the arrival of the Great Chu army, they themselves will disperse first.

Chen Changfeng nodded, he didn't plan to let the soldiers know the news.

"This matter is very urgent, what is the plan of the military advisor?" Chen Changfeng looked at Liu Shuwen.

Although Liu Shuwen was apprehensive in his heart, he knew that it was impossible to avoid it at this time.

If it can't be solved, the overthrow of the Ming Empire will only be in the day.

It was a small fight before, but now I am afraid that it will escalate into a war to destroy the country.

"We must not let the reinforcements of the Great Chu Empire and Li Fengxian's southern army converge, once they converge, our army will definitely be defeated."

"It is best to defeat the Southern Army of the Great Chu Empire before the reinforcements of the Great Chu Empire arrive." Liu Shuwen was silent for a short time, and then said in a firm tone.

"We don't have an advantage in terms of the number of soldiers and combat effectiveness compared with the Southern Army of the Great Chu Expedition, how can we defeat Li Fengxian?"

"Besides, the third prince ......" It was Chen Qingzhi who spoke.

At this moment, Chen Qingzhi's face was full of worry.

He felt that wanting to defeat Li Fengxian was tantamount to a fool's dream.

Besides, the three princes are still in Li Fengxian's hands, and a few of them can not care about the life and death of the three princes, but what about the other Ming soldiers?

What would they do if they saw the three princes tied up in front of the two armies?

If you don't kill, the military order is like a mountain.

If they are killed, will the emperor be furious and hold them accountable for murdering the three princes.

Liu Shuwen's face was slightly stunned, and his eyes fell on Chen Changfeng.

How to deal with the three princes has to be decided by Chen Changfeng.

"I will find a way to defeat Li Fengxian before the reinforcements of the Great Chu Empire arrive, which is also an imminent matter."

"Before the arrival of February, we must defeat the Southern Army of the Great Chu." Chen Changfeng's tone was a little heavy.

Liu Shuwen nodded, but at this moment, they didn't even have a clue how to deal with the Great Chu Expeditionary Southern Army.

"Strategist, from tomorrow onwards, the army will immediately drill and wait for my orders at any time." Chen Changfeng spoke again.

"Yes, Your Highness." Uncle Liu responded.

Although I don't know what Chen Changfeng will do, he can only take one step at a time now.

Liu Shuwen left, Chen Qingzhi wanted to say something, but suddenly swallowed the words back.

Seeing this, Chen Changfeng didn't ask, but looked at Xue Rengui on the side: "What is Xu Gongmao's attitude now?" ”

It has been a month since Xu Gongmao fell into the hands of Chen Changfeng.

As the world's No. 1 military array master, he is still very capable.

Chen Changfeng naturally wanted Xu Gongmao to stay by his side and obey his orders, but Xu Gongmao was indeed as Li Fengxian said, oil and salt did not enter.

Biting to death is a sentence I am a Da Chu person, and I must not work for Da Ming.

"The old thing has a very hard mouth, if the prince hadn't let him be tortured, I would have chopped him alive." As soon as Xue Rengui mentioned Xu Gongmao, his eyes became cold.

Obviously, he was not less angered by Xu Gongmao.

Chen Changfeng was noncommittal, and said: "Chen Qingzhi take the things I asked you to bring before, and we will meet this Xu Gongmao for a while." ”
