As soon as the Bei Pass emergency report arrived in Shendu, Long Xiao immediately convened an emergency court meeting to discuss the military situation.

The urgent report was read out at the time:

Chen Jiaoqi deputy general Dugu from the blue Baibai, a few days ago we gathered a large army and the beast Yang decisive battle blood lipid plain, in the fierce battle did not expect the beast Yang reinforcements suddenly came, the minister and the generals fought desperately and bloodily, but the army commander Ouyang Yunqing, led more than 80,000 foot soldiers to flee without a fight, resulting in chaos in the army array, the soldiers were slaughtered, 200,000 troops from the heavy armor battalion general Zhuge Xuanbei, Fuhu military commander Zhuo Sheng and the next, more than 140,000 people died in the battle, the commander Ouyang Yunqing is missing, rumors were captured.

At present, the remnants of the minister are retreating to the blood lipid pass, and the beast yang army is besieging the city, and the blood lipid pass is in danger! It is not a pity for the ministers to die, but in order to protect the dragon and not lose an inch of land, I hope that Your Majesty will send reinforcements as soon as possible, and the ministers will swear to live and die together with the blood lipid pass.

Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ………

As soon as the emergency report was read, the court exploded, and the courtiers talked about it, like a thousand catties of boulder being thrown into a small pond, stirring up a thousand waves.

More than 100,000 soldiers were killed in battle, the main general was missing, and the colonel was killed countless times, which was another fiasco for Longteng in recent years.

For a while, the voice of the court scolding the lord Ouyang Yunqing was endless, and many people beat their chests and feet, crying, whining and mourning! Seems grief-stricken.

The corners of Dugu Qianye's mouth hooked up a sneer: Father's expectation is really not bad, this battle will definitely be lost, don't you Ouyang family want military power, now it depends on how you end.

Ouyang Minggu was so angry that his face turned pale, his face trembled, and these scoldings behind him seemed to be scolding his son Ouyang Yunqing and the beast Yang barbarian thief, but in fact, they were all loud slaps, slapping him in the face and slapping on the face of the Ouyang family.

When the Ouyang family had a family master who escaped from the battle and was captured by the enemy, Long Teng would not need such a duke.

The Ouyang family's face was completely lost, and Ouyang slowly closed his eyes.

Long Xiao looked at the ministers who were arguing below, raised his hand helplessly, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is no point in arguing now, the top priority is to see how to solve the dilemma of the border pass, the defenders of the blood fat pass are still waiting for reinforcements!" ”

Hearing His Majesty the Emperor's speech, the court instantly fell silent, and no one dared to touch this mold again.

The former military department Shangshu and now the household department Shangshu Longge stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, for today's plan, we should levy the army as soon as possible, send a capable cadre to the blood lipid pass to support, Zhongzhou also needs to divide the troops, once the beast Yang captures the two levels of rejecting animals and tigers, it will still be in the realm of no one, and the military peak can point directly to the divine capital, and it will be too late to regret it at that time!" ”

"Your Majesty! Wechen agrees with Lord Long's proposal! It's best to send troops early! Liu Gai, the secretary of the ministry, was even more anxious, because his youngest son was still trapped in the blood lipid barrier.

"Aiqing is reasonable, so how many troops should be conscripted, and who should be sent to lead the army?"

There was a sudden silence in the court, and everyone looked at each other.

Most people thought in their hearts: More than 200,000 troops were defeated, and more than 140,000 died when they died, and the generals in the northern pass were enough to fight habitually, not so many dead, even Ouyang Yunqing, who was born in Ouyang Mansion for generations, was beaten and lost his armor, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Who dares to come out like this, the beast yang thief is really tight, whoever likes to go will go, anyway, I don't dare to go.

Long Xiao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, smiled wryly and sighed: "Raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, the country is in danger, and there is no fierce general who can lead the army to the battle. ”

In fact, Ouyang Mogu, who was standing below, wanted to speak, but his son was defeated and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he really didn't have the face to ask for military power anymore.

Long Xiao glanced at Shangguan Yuyun, who was standing at the head of the civil officials, he seemed to feel Long Xiao's gaze, and said slowly: "The old minister thinks that if you want to talk about the courage of the generals, who can match the border generals in Beiyaozhou and Beiliang Qingyun in Beijiao, the imperial court only needs to levy a large army and send a civil official and important minister to sit in Bei Pass Prefecture, and let the generals of Bei Pass discuss the war." ”

"What does Prince Wei mean?" Long Xiao looked at Long Yun, the current secretary of the military department.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Lord Shangguan."

"Who can do this?" Long Xiao asked again.

Shangguan Wenxuan turned sideways, turned his head slightly and glanced at Shangguan Yuyun, as if he understood what his father meant, he immediately walked out of the train, and shouted loudly: "The minister Shangguan Wenxuan is willing to go, defend the land and defend the country, and expel the foreign invaders, which is a duty within the office, and people have been deeply favored by His Majesty for many years, and the ministers are grateful. ”

Shangguan Wenxuan deserves to have lived in the court for a long time, without any preparation in advance, just with his father's eyes, he accurately guessed what his father meant, and even opened his mouth to make an impassioned statement, which is really impressive.

The ministers behind him whispered one after another, and the ministers who were attached to the Shangguan family even loudly seconded the proposal, praising Lord Shangguan for standing up in times of danger and being the pillar of the country, etc.

The people of the Dugu family don't care, it was a surprise to get a deputy commander this time, but now they don't care who will be this hot potato again.

And Ouyang Yanggu's face is very ugly, after all, the military power has always been controlled by their Ouyang family and Shangguan family since Mo Xie removed his armor, but now there is no way, the head of the Ouyang family is gone, so naturally he has no face to jump out again, and the other old man Murong, the Duke of Dingguo, was idle at home two years ago, regardless of the government, and the two sons of the family have also been leading troops at the border to deter the White Elephant Empire.

In this way, Shangguan Wenxuan naturally became the most qualified member of the court, who made the family a servant.

Long Xiao looked at Shangguan Wenxuan, who was holding his head high, and secretly sneered in his heart, and it was another struggle for power and profit, but he still said: "Okay, this time, Lord Shangguan will personally lead the troops, and the military department will immediately formulate a feasible plan for the transfer of troops, and set out as soon as possible!" ”

"No!" Shangguan Wenxuan bowed his head and promised, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

——— the mansion of the Shangguan family in the capital of the gods

Shangguan Wenxuan looked at his father with admiration and said: "Father, you are really like a god, Ouyang Yunqing was really defeated, and before we could make a move, Dugu jumped out from Lan and bit him, haha, the Ouyang family's face was lost today." ”

"Alright, alright." Shangguan Yuyun waved his hand and stopped his son's laughter: "What you need to worry about at present is whether you can retreat from the enemy if you go, don't lose your armor when you are beaten, and now you still have the heart to laugh at others, I don't want to be accused of being scolded like Ouyang Drum!" Hum! ”

Hearing his father's reprimand, Shangguan Wenxuan's attitude immediately became serious: "Father taught me a lesson, but now it seems that this beast Yang barbarian thief is really difficult to deal with, does my father have a good plan?" ”

"The generals of the North Pass are all people with outstanding achievements, you can follow a principle when you go to the meeting, you want to give a pawn, you want money to give money, you will be rewarded for meritorious service, and you will be punished if you have a fault, they will naturally win the battle for you, but whenever you encounter a situation, discuss it with them more, you don't just shoot your head to lead the troops to fight, don't forget the tragic situation when your third uncle died! Do you know why our Shangguan family endured it? That's the hand under the chill! The Cold Shadow God King has a fateful friendship with Mo Xie! Now in the army, it is not my Shangguan family that is the only one, and there are many border army generals who support Mo Xie, remember not to speak ill of Mo Xie in front of the border army generals! You must always mention how good Mo Xie used to be, so that the border generals below will support you. Shangguan Yuyun said his advice.
