467. The Imperial Driver's Expedition
Since the news came back that the army of the middle line of the three princes was defeated and almost wiped out by the 500,000 army, the state of Qi has become a well-known and well-known country above the Dalu court.
Around the Qi State, the court has discussed it more than once.
Today's discussion, however, is somewhat unusual.
Na Feng stood in the midst of the ministers, watching the minister in front of him speak.
The first to stand up was not an important minister of the court, but a Han face.
Seeing this person, although he didn't know him, but the appearance of the sharp-beaked monkey's cheeks, and then looking at the tattoos embroidered on the official uniform, these knowledgeable people in the hall looked like the marquis's complement, and they could guess that this was the Shunyi Hou who was on the battlefield of Yuanju and submitted to the Daru court - taken from the meaning of obedience to justice.
Naphon pursed his lips.
I don't think much of this person.
"What's this man's name?"
The middle school scholar next to him leaned over and asked.
"This Shunyi Hou Chen Zhong, who was originally a general of the Jingguo border army, led the people to surrender to Dalu, and now he is sitting down at the king of Wuchang to listen to it.
However, this general is not qualified to go to the court on weekdays, but now he doesn't know why he was summoned and came to this court. ”
Although Na Feng looked down on him, he still pricked up his ears, intending to listen carefully to what this Shunyi candidate had to say. Since the emperor summoned him to the Shang Dynasty, this released a strong political signal, which is very likely to be His Majesty's intention.
"Your Majesty, the minister has this to play!"
Shunyi waited on his knees on the ground, kowtowed violently and said.
He is also diligent and studious, and can now stumble to speak in Luerte, but he lacks a flick tongue and rhyme consonants, which makes people listen a little awkward when he speaks.
But understood.
"Exactly."
The eunuch shouted.
"Your Majesty, the puppet Qi has taken the eight southern provinces, which has become the climate, and now the ambition is inflated, and there is an ambition to dominate the world, and it has become a problem for my country!
However, the minister thought that although the Qi State won a war by luck, my Dalu Empire was strong and strong, and the bravery of the heroes in the north was unparalleled in the world. Under the spears of the heroes of the north, the pseudo-Qi is not to be feared!
At best, it was no more than a secessionist regime in the south of the old scene. In the land of the Han Dynasty, the south is weak, and since ancient times, it has been unified with the north and the south, and there are few cases where the south is unified with the north. How many men who were born in the land of fish and rice in the south can fight? The gains and losses of a war do not prove anything!
The minister thinks that I, the Daru Heavenly Kingdom, should plough the court and sweep the caves, and use the wrath of thunder to raise the prestige of our country and sweep away the Qi country! Pocket all the old lands to build the foundation of my Daru people for eternity! ”
Chen Zhong spoke generously, and his voice was high-pitched.
No matter how many people secretly spur Chen Zhong for being shameless, above the court, most people have an attitude of approval of his words.
In the eyes of most people, the Daru Empire is now in full swing, and the successive victories have given them the confidence and ambition to look down on the world.
The territory of the empire, from the Rus Empire in the north, to the East Inboro Kingdom in the west, and to the North Sea in the east, the distance from east to west, even if a black-scaled horse runs tirelessly every day, it will take twenty days!
Although there are large areas of frozen soil and large areas of uninhabited land, it is undeniable that the territory of the Daru Empire is no smaller than the land area of the heyday of the Jing Dynasty! Coupled with the land in the northern part of the old scenery that they occupy now, if calculated purely in terms of area, their land area has exceeded that of Qi by five times!
In their eyes, a defeat is nothing!
Nafeng thought the same way.
For the old land of the Jing Dynasty, in their eyes, it is the land of the world's elite. In the eyes of the general public, it represents wealth, abundance, abundant products, and outstanding people. Every year in winter, when the weather in the north is cold and freezing, under the pressure of hunger and cold, enter the customs to grab a few times, so that they can live a good winter!
For these elite ministers in the court of the Daru Empire, Han Tu represented endless wealth, the correctness of rule, and the strong claim to the emperor's throne.
With the addition of Prime Minister Yun Geyushu, Deputy Prime Minister Tuoba Yan, Shang Shuhui Lan Jinsheng and others in turn, Nafeng has gradually figured out the direction of today's wind.
This time, in the court, he swept away his previous cautious attitude towards Qi State, and began to blow the attitude of "eliminating evil", "sweeping away in one fell swoop", and "autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves", which made him also guess, is it that the spies of the empire have found out the reality of Qi and are ready to launch a large-scale war of annihilation?
"The second item on today's agenda is the use of troops against the country."
At this moment, the voice of the great eunuch threw out the second topic of the day.
At this point, almost all the officials in the DPRK have already understood the spirit, and they are indeed going to mobilize troops against the country!
With the foreshadowing of the previous issues, the officials in the DPRK have boosted their confidence and unified their thinking, and they no longer pay attention to small countries such as Qi State.
When the emperor proposed to go to Nanyang in person and drive the expedition in person, no one objected.
Emperor Tuoba Yuan was in Daru and had high prestige.
Above the court, the atmosphere was relaxed, as if the destruction of the Qi country was as easy as the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.
"Your Majesty!"
At this time, Zhongshu ordered Wanyan Zong to come out of the ranks and sang loudly.
Na Feng immediately cheered up and prepared to follow the boss of his own Zhongshu Province and came out to support.
"Your Majesty, the empire has now set its capital in Ningyang, and now the imperial city is small, which is not enough to show the majesty of the empire and the dignity of the country.
The minister suggested expanding the imperial city and rebuilding the temple······"
Wanyan Zong's voice immediately attracted the eyes of several dignitaries and high-ranking officials in front of him, including deep meaning, as well as the grim gaze coming from the dragon chair.
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the ······"
The officials of Zhongshu Province who had been connected in the morning, as well as several allies of Wanyan Sect, also came out one after another to express their support.
Na Feng Zheng raised his steps, but suddenly stopped. At the same time, on his forehead, a layer of fine hair sweat also appeared visibly with the naked eye!
"Something is wrong!"
It can be seen from the theme of today's court that the topics are progressing layer by layer, and what is conveyed is to enter the Central Plains, annihilate the Qi State, and take the entire territory of the Han Dynasty.
And the emperor drove to Nanyang in person, will he come back? ”
Nafeng's brain was racing.
The palace in Ningyang City has not been built, but the palace on the other side of Nanyang is in full swing, and I heard that it has been repaired now! And it just so happened that at this time, His Majesty dragged his injured body, and still wanted to drive the expedition in person, the intention was already very obvious!
From the very beginning, Ningyang City was a springboard for His Majesty, and Nanyang City, the old capital of the Jing Dynasty, was His Majesty's goal.
Na Feng quietly raised his eyes and looked at the non-Zhongshu Provincial ministers who stood up to support Wanyan Sect, and they were basically from Wanyan Ministry.
What they represent is also the interests of the Wanyan Ministry.
"Ningyang, in the northeast of the old scene, is far away from the Central Plains. If you want to take over the whole of the old scenery, it is the right choice to go to Nanyang, Jingzhou, which is located in Middle-earth, which is the real center of Middle-earth.
Now, Lord Wanyan wants to build an imperial city in Ningyang, which is to express his opinion. Hoping that the capital will be built in Ningyang is a disguised persuasion of His Majesty not to go to Nanyang in Ningyang, and it is also a disguised expression of unwillingness to go south to fight again, which is completely contrary to His Majesty's topic today.
Moreover, at the meeting of the previous dynasty, Wanyanzong proposed to divide the north and south rivers into the Wenchang River with the Han people.
It's just that the Wanyan tribe has done this, what are the benefits?
Although the Wanyan tribe is very powerful in the court, and among the Luttes, it is second only to the Tuoba royal family, but at this time, they put pressure on His Majesty, with His Majesty's prestige, can they really shake it? ”
During the period when Na Feng was brainstorming and hesitating, the officials of Zhongshu Province had basically issued a list of supportive opinions.
He looked in the direction of the squire in front of him, but saw that the squire had already stepped out with one foot, but his body was frozen there, as if he was hesitating.
However, the squire didn't hesitate for long, he had already stepped forward and sang loudly: "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”
"Nashetan ······"
When Na Feng heard this, he turned his head to look at the Chinese scholar and saw that his face was pale.
Zheng Sanpin officials are already high-ranking officials in the court, and they are not the leaders of the country under the first- and second-grade officials such as the Prime Minister, Shangshu Ling, and Zhongshu Ling, but they can be regarded as the executors of the country's highest power.
Their every move is enough to be remembered by the emperor, and it is also enough to be remembered by the Zhongshu Ling Wanyan Sect.
So at this point, they are in a dilemma that is difficult to ride a tiger.
The two made eye contact for a moment, and the harvest returned to his footsteps and shook his head slightly towards the middle school scholar.
The scholar didn't know what he thought, showed a relieved smile, stepped out of the queue, and said loudly: "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”
At this time, most of the officials in Zhongshu Province had already stood up.
"Do you want to give it a go?"
Na Feng never imagined that such a dilemma would occur in an ordinary early dynasty like in the past.
Eventually, he decided to give it a go.
Stiff, he lowered his head, his eyes on his toes, and remained motionless in the queue.
Until a cry of "Retreat!" When the scream reached his ears, Na Feng quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
After kneeling on the ground and chanting long live, the emperor left, and the courtiers began to go out one after another.
Leaving the main hall, when the waiter passed, he glanced at Na Feng with a cold look in his eyes.
Na Feng looked at the back of the squire walking briskly, and wanted to say something, his mouth opened and closed twice, and finally did not make a sound. When he became a shrunken turtle, he knew that in Zhongshu Province, he had been beaten into the cold palace.
"I hope Your Majesty will remember me."
Nafeng thought secretly.
After all, he is from the Ruerte Kling tribe, although it is far less brilliant than the Wanyan tribe, but there are also some forces in the army, and it is not enough to say that he will lose if he chooses to do so.
"Alas!"
When the scholar walked through Nafeng, he sighed softly: "In the future, you and my brother, I'm afraid we won't be able to get along."
Brother, cherish! ”
After speaking, the Chinese scholar walked quickly past him.
"That brother, don't mind, we are all responsible for Your Majesty, and those who do perverse actions will not end up."
Having not had much contact with him before, Zhuo Lu Moyun, the left attendant of Shangshu Province, walked to Nafeng's side and spoke.
"That's what Lord Zoru said."
Na Feng hurriedly said.
"The Prime Minister and Lord Shangshu were called by His Majesty to the Warm Pavilion to discuss important matters, and I believe that Your Majesty and the Prime Minister have already seen your performance today.
The Zhuolu tribe and the Keling tribe are in-laws, and we will have to interact more in the future. ”
Zhuo Lu Moyun revealed a message to Na Feng, expressed his goodwill, and walked out of the gate of the imperial city before leaving.
After receiving Zhuolu Moyun's news and kindness, Na Feng's heart settled down, and his heart became excited, and he began to summarize the gains and losses this time.
"If I'm in the right place this time, maybe ······ is expected to be in charge of Zhongshu Province, and at that time, the Eagle Demon King will not dare to look at me coldly, the Keling tribe will take my lead as a leader, and I can also use the momentum of the generals of the Keling tribe in the army! ”
Thinking like this, Nafeng's ambition began to swell.
Warm Pavilion.
The court meeting of hundreds of people in the court is just to improve confidence and unify thinking.
The small meeting of the warm pavilion is the meeting that determines the fate and future of the country.
At this time, the emperor Tuoba Yuan, Prime Minister Yun Ge Yushu, Deputy Prime Minister Tuoba Yan, Shangshu Huilan Jinsheng, Zhongshu Ling Wanyan Zong, Shangyu Mansion Helian Yunnu, and the Eagle Demon King, and the Golden Body King who is mysterious in the folk identity, as well as the temple shaman Shang Rong, there are only nine people left and right, and they are seated in the warm pavilion.
"Our spies have entered the Qi country, the rest of the provinces are fine, but Wuzhou Province is extremely strict, most of the spies we sent out, most of them are folded there, and most of the information sent out individually has not been exposed to the real core news.
But just like that, the news that Wu Zhou talked about and heard is still shocking! ”
Helian Yunnu gave the folds that had already been copied to the adults on the seats.
The Helian tribe used to exist as a slave of the Tuoba clan, but as Tuoba Yuan led troops to conquer the east and west, and established the Daru Empire, the Helian tribe as a slave ascended to heaven and became a force in the Daru Empire.
As the real ruling class of the Dalu Kingdom, everyone couldn't help but show shocked expressions when they looked at the description of Wuzhou on the excerpt.
"The legend of the Black Dragon is actually true? Is the King of Qi really an immortal in the sky? ”
Tuoba Yan exclaimed in surprise.
Although they are the rulers of Daru, it does not mean that they are not superstitious.
The living corpse incident, the supernatural ability, the rise of the warrior, the manifestation of the temple, what of these things that have happened in the past ten years are not far beyond the imagination of mortals?
The vast majority of people believe in the legend of the gods.
"It's an immortal, it's also an evil god!"
Shang Rong clasped his hands together and said, "The gods of the temple, protect our clan, and those who dare to threaten our clan will be rejected by the gods!" ”
"The minister thinks that the first thing to destroy the Qi State is to destroy Wuzhou Province. This is the core of the Qi country. ”
Yun Ge Yushu said.
"What the prime minister said is good, although the Qi army is strong but the troops are small, we can concentrate the main forces from Zhongzhou directly into Wuzhou Province, and the other line into the southern hinterland, scattering the enemy's forces at the same time, there is also hope that Anhui Province will form a situation of encirclement and encirclement of Wuzhou!"
Shang Shuhui Lan Jinsheng added: "As for what Lord Wanyan said, the river is drawn and ruled ······"
He looked at Wanyanzong and said in a solemn voice: "There is a saying among the Han people, those who do not advance will retreat every day.
Today's trend is that if you don't advance, you will retreat, and if you can't take the Qi country, the Qi country will become our henchmen, not only to accumulate heavy troops in the south, but also to consume a lot of energy, and the cost is huge! ”
Wanyanzong didn't speak, and now that the emperor had obviously discussed it with the prime minister and others, it was useless for him to say more.
After discussing until the afternoon, it was finally decided that the Eagle Demon King would be in charge of the army, and the Golden Body King would serve as the deputy commander, leading the 200,000 Dalu elite army to reinforce Zhongzhou.
The 100,000 army guarding Nanyang, led by King Wucheng Tuoba Mountain, entered Yuzhou and stabbed into the southern hinterland of Qi State!
The emperor personally led the Changsheng army to defend Nanyang City in Jingzhou.
Be sure to annihilate the Qi State in one fell swoop, and before the middle of next year, subdue the old land of Jingguo and achieve the foundation of the world!
