Chapter 246: He Won't Break His Promise to Her (Second Watch)
When the servant who was devastated by Yu Xiang saw Shen Qing's gentle and friendly smile, he was immediately moved to tears, and replied loudly: "Yes, the villain is going!" ”
Then he turned and went away.
Woo woo, also in a high position, Lord Xiao Shen is clearly much easier to get along with than Yu Xiang! No wonder ten years ago, Lord Xiao Shen's reputation among the people was once worse than Yu Xiang!
However, just now that Lord Xiao Shen answered his question on behalf of Yu Xiang, Yu Xiang didn't seem to have any opinion at all, and he also saw Lord Xiao Shen glance at Yu Xiang with clear condemnation!
In this relationship between husband and wife, Lord Xiao Shen is clearly in the upper hand!
is really worthy of Lord Xiao Shen, who can lead his troops to fight and raise his pen to calm the world, and can also control Yu Xiang! He announced that he would be a loyal follower of Lord Xiao Shen in the future!
After Shen Qing saw the servant leave, Yu Jiuqing still had an expression of reluctance to move, stood up funny, pulled him up together, and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you." ”
Although she said that she would not go to the front line again, she still needs to understand the relevant situation.
She said as she walked to the study: "I heard that the Daliang army is about to hit the capital, but it was stopped by the Marquis of Wu'an and the Marquis of Tiaozhou in the area of Fengzhou, but the Daqi Imperial Court can mobilize not many troops now, and now it is attacked from both sides, even if the Marquis of Wu'an and the Marquis of Tiaohou join forces, it won't last long." ”
Yu Jiuqing took Shen Qing's hand and walked slowly to the study, and suddenly, he pulled the corners of his mouth mockingly and said: "If it weren't for the delusional thoughts of the Great Liang Yun King, I am afraid that the Great Liang army would have already attacked the capital." ”
Although King Daliangyun only sent a part of his army to Xizhou at the beginning, there were already a lot of tens of thousands of troops.
Although Wu'an Hou and Tiaohou are both experienced veterans, they can't hold out for a few days in the face of the Daliang army in a perfect state.
Shen Qing didn't want to mention that man again, in fact, she still didn't understand how that guy's obsession with her was so deep.
What's more, she clearly felt that Yu Jiuqing minded that guy very much, and every time she mentioned him, the anger in her eyes would be bottomless.
She lightly opened the topic and said, "You promised me last night that I would clean up the mess, and we will have to take action on our side, right?" ”
Yu Jiuqing was silent for a moment, and only let out a low "um".
He wouldn't break his promise to her.
It's just that he doesn't want to leave her for too long, so he wants to calm down the world as quickly as possible.
Then, go back to her.
As soon as Shen Qing and Yu Jiuqing walked into the study, Liu Zhao and Chen Li stood up and saluted them, "I've seen Yu Xiang, I've seen Mrs. Yu Xiang." ”
Yu Jiuqing walked to the main seat and sat down, sent someone to bring a chair over and put it next to him, and asked Shen Qing to sit down before he said, "Don't be so polite, just get up and talk."
Mingli, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and we've worked hard for you to be stationed in Xizhou these days. ”
"Mingli" is Liu Zhao's character.
Yu Jiuqing's sentence "Thank you for your hard work" obviously contains a lot of meanings.
During this period of time, the Great Qi was in turmoil, but Liu Zhao had always obeyed Yu Jiuqing's orders, and never sent reinforcements out, and the 50,000 defenders were guarding a small Xizhou.
It's not so much hard work as tiredness.
Liu Zhao stood up and saluted, and said, "The last general is not hard, it is the duty of the last general to manage the Xizhou garrison and protect Xizhou."
It's just that the last general has a question in his heart, and he hopes that Yu Xiang will answer it. Why did Yu Xiang never let the last general send reinforcements? ”
is that he is loyal to Yu Jiuqing, not the current Great Qi court, he is also a common man of Great Qi, and he is a soldier who defends his family and the country.
Watching the land of Great Qi gradually fall, how could he not be anxious.
Although he knew that it was rude to question Yu Xiang like this as soon as they met, this question had been held in his heart for a long time, and every time he saw a refugee displaced by the war, his conscience would be tortured.
Shen Qing frowned slightly, and couldn't help but look at Yu Jiuqing.
In the final analysis, this matter has Yu Jiuqing's ulterior selfishness.
It's just that in front of his generals, he can't say it so bluntly.
Yu Jiuqing looked at Liu Zhao, chuckled, and said, "What if you send reinforcements?" Do you think that the current Great Qi Imperial Court has the ability to deal with Da Liang? Asking you to send reinforcements is just increasing casualties for nothing. ”
Liu Zhao gritted his teeth, "Even so, ......"
"Mingli, you are a general, and it is right to protect your family and defend the country, but I am the prime minister of this Great Qi, and what I want to think about is not the safety of a certain state or a certain city, but the safety of the entire Great Qi."
Yu Jiu said lightly: "Da Liang is going to be expelled, but now the situation in Daqi is complicated, before we are fully prepared, if we rashly join the battle, it will only make the situation more complicated." ”
Liu Zhao was slightly stunned.
Yu Xiang was right.
Now that Yu Xiang and the Great Qi Imperial Court have broken up, although the Great Qi Imperial Court is tired of dealing with Da Liang and Nan'an, it definitely does not want to see Yu Xiang intervene in these matters.
When the time comes, will they cooperate against the aliens, or will they kill each other?
With Liu Zhao's thoughts, the most urgent thing at the moment is naturally to expel the aliens.
However, the new majesty of Daqi is not a big belly, and he is disgusted with Yu Xiang, he does not think that he will be willing to cooperate with them to expel the aliens.
Liu Zhao couldn't help but be a little surprised, and said, "It's that the last general is thinking too simply, but I don't know what Yu Xiang's thoughts are now?" ”
Yu Jiuqing tapped the table with the index finger of his right hand and said, "I previously sent someone to propose to the Holy Lord to work together to expel the aliens, but the Holy Lord vehemently refused. ”
Shen Qing was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but glance at the man on the side.
He actually sent someone to cooperate with Sima Heng.
She didn't think that Yu Jiuqing really wanted to cooperate with that hypocrite, he must have other intentions in doing so.
When Liu Zhao heard this, he was very shocked, and gritted his teeth sharply and said, "Why did the Holy Lord refuse!" He knew that with the current strength of the imperial court, he would not be able to fight against Da Liang and Nan'an at the same time!
Because of the extreme shortage of soldiers, the Holy Lord even ordered compulsory conscription in all states! As a result, countless civilians who have not been trained by the regular army have been forced to go to the battlefield without knowing anything and die in vain! This incident has caused the people's resentment to boil!
General Sun Lao, who was stationed in Qingzhou, committed suicide when the city of Qingzhou was broken because he could not bear the resentment of the people against him after the forced conscription.
I also heard that because of the huge expenditures of the war, the already empty treasury could not support it at all, and the Holy Lord planned to raise taxes in the states and impose a grain levy.
If this rumor is true, the current Great Qi court will only completely lose the hearts of the people! And what about fighting those aliens! ”
