Jinling City in half a month, has been all controlled by Manichaeism, they gave themselves a very loud name "Heavenly Soldiers", the actual control of Jinling City is Bao Daoyi and Deng Yuanjue, although Deng Yuanjue only arrived a few days ago, but his 60,000 heavenly soldiers have become the main force of Jinling, a radius of 100 miles, plus his disciple Hussar General Liu Yun led 20,000 cavalry, even if there are Zhang Jian, Li Tianding and Sword Casting Villa in Jinling City, they can't compete with it, and Bao Daoyi Division and military division Lu Qinghou are friends, is the Holy Father Fang La, who took refuge together, after the arrival of Lu Qinghou, Bao Daoyi took a back seat, but in fact, Bao Daoyi was still in control.

Fang La's four generalissimos, eight hussar generals, twenty-four gods and twelve gods of Jiangnan, constitute the team of the army, I have to say that these people are strong in martial arts, not to mention, they all have the ability to command the army, if not, it is impossible to conquer the land of the three prefectures and eighteen states in the south of the Yangtze River, and they come from the southwest, not to mention the land of the southwest foundation, the actual control, I am afraid there are five states.

Although the remaining two southwestern states did not have a confrontation with the government, they were the birthplace of Manichaeism, where Manichaeism was deeply rooted.

And looking at their attitude towards the Nangong family, now that I think about it, the land in the two states is barren, and the officialdom ecology here must not be very good, but it makes sense to say this, or these two states are absolutely sure that they can stabilize the situation.

And Lu Yutong finally attracted the attention of the imperial court after "missing" for more than a month, and in the end, Yu Linwei's news was that twelve of them went to Jinling, and what they were doing, but it is not known, after this matter alarmed the harem, the official family personally inquired, only to know that Lu Yutong was directly dispatched, so that Lu Yutong is afraid that he is also in Jinling.

After a few days, the 600 li expedited by the military department was pressed by the Privy Council until the morning to report to Li Linfu, the left minister, Li Linfu after learning that the princess of Changping might also be in Jinling, immediately rode to the front of the palace, and delivered the express report to the hands of the official family in the Yangxin Palace at the first moment of the early dynasty.

"Jinling City was broken, the general of the hussar general Tie held on for three days, was wounded everywhere, outnumbered, too shou Zhang Jingzhi, the general He Yuepan and the defenders retreated outside the city, three counterattacks ended in failure, only 4,600 troops remained, covering the fleeing people to the north."

Right Prime Minister Xia Yongkang only got so much information from the express newspaper he picked up, it is obvious that the destruction of Jinling City has become a fact, according to the time, this matter has been ten days ago, and now I am afraid that Jinling City has been completely controlled.

Tiance General Lu Kanghui, Right Minister Xia Yongkang, Left Minister Li Linfu, Taishi Geng Jingguo, Tai Lieutenant Xing Wenguang, and Military Department Shangshu Zhan Bibai lined up on both sides, waiting for the official family to speak.

The official frowned, but sat on the dragon chair in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and slowly spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, the city of Jinling is broken, the 16,000 defenders can't stop the rabble, and the city is broken, what should I do?" ”

Lu Kanghui touched his beard, but he didn't say a word, the Tiance army has gone to the front line, and now the battle situation is changing rapidly, once the Tiance army moves, it is smelled by the two countries, and it will definitely start to attack the border.

Li Linfu took a step forward: "Your Majesty, my lords, as far as I know, Princess Changping may also be in ...... Jinling ......"

As soon as this remark came out, it surprised everyone, so that the broken city of Jinling was not only a gain or loss of a city, but a matter related to the prestige of the entire Great Xia Dynasty and the face of the officials.

"And it is reported that the siege of the city is from the southwest Chengdu Manichaeism, headed by the name Fang La, and Chengdu Cheng family is a world friend, somehow out of Chengdu, followed by hundreds of thousands of followers, a few days ago Jinling City was broken, and Zhejiang South and Zhejiang North also appeared a large number of Manichaeans, although the two provinces also took some means, caught a group, killed a group, but the effect is not very obvious, for today's plan, but also ask the emperor to transfer troops, exterminate Manichaeism, in order to eliminate future troubles." Zhan Bibai, the secretary of the military department, bowed his hand and saluted. He is the secretary of the military department, but in this palace of heart cultivation, it is his lowest position, if he doesn't say it first, who will say it?

There was a short vacancy on the field, everyone knew that now we should be cautious with troops, if not, Manichaeism will become bigger, and if it really occupies three or five prefectures, internal worries will become a tumor, but once the troops are used, there will definitely be vacancies in the northern front, if the troops are used, they can only be transferred from the inside, and the 80,000 troops in the capital cannot be moved, and the 100,000 auxiliary troops as the final bottom line are used to specifically supplement the northern front, and their training is also to seize the Hexi Corridor and go down in history. The rest is the 150,000 army of the military department, but Zhan Bibai said that he asked His Majesty to transfer troops, and the combat effectiveness of the military department is on paper, and everyone knows it.

The difficulties are here, but the problem still has to be solved, Li Linfu said: "Your Majesty, there is one minister who can solve this crisis." ”

When Emperor Shenwu heard this, he raised his hand slightly and said, "Can anyone solve this crisis?" ”

"Yes, I have already brought the person, it is Yin Gaoyu of Jingzhao Mansion." Li Linfu arched his hand and said: "This person has only served as the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion for two years, and the cases in the capital have dropped by nearly three percent, and the number of cases solved has increased by two percent. ”

"Although he is capable of handling cases, after all, this is leading troops to fight, followed by tens of thousands of soldiers, and their lives are likely to change in a single sentence, so hasty, isn't it unseemly?" Taiwei Xing Wenguang flicked his sleeves, and the second half of the sentence wanted to say but didn't say it, if he won, it's okay, if he fails, he will lose not only his life, but also the face of the court.

Taishi pursed his lips and said slowly: "This Gao Yu, I know, last year's birth gang, now there are eyebrows, Gao Yu caught a man named Bai Sheng, confessed that this matter was done by a group of thieves in Shuibo Liangshan, the leader is named Chao Gai, who is dead, and the current leader is named Song Jiang, and his subordinates have gathered 10,000 bandits to occupy the mountain as the king, and the people have been suffering for a long time, this matter Jingzhao Mansion Yin is preparing to take some specific measures, I met Gao Yu the day before yesterday, and happened to talk about it, quite insightful. ”

Emperor Shenwu nodded slightly, his body moved slightly, he exhaled, looked at Xia Yongkang and asked, "What is the opinion of the right minister?" ”

Xia Yongkang came out of the queue and arched his hand: "Your Majesty praises falsely, your subordinates think that since Zuo Xiang has a suitable candidate, and he is the Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, he is also capable of thinking about it, and listening to the words of the Taishi, this person has also made great achievements in leading troops, and can be used for one thing, one is to test Gao Yu's ability, and the other is to be able to train and prepare for future battles, killing two birds with one stone." ”

Li Linfu squinted his eyes slightly, and before he could speak, he heard Xia Yongkang say again: "Weichen also has a candidate, although he does not have the talent of Gao Yu Gao, but he is also calm and sophisticated, and he can help Gao Daren." ”

"Oh? Who is this person? Emperor Shenwu asked.

Xia Yongkang said: "This person is Tan Zhen of Fujian Mansion who reported to work a year ago, this person has been dealing with barbarian bandits in Fujian Mansion for many years, and he still has some experience. ”

Emperor Shenwu nodded slightly: "Well, I have seen his excerpts, he has done very well in the past few years, and the taxes of Fujian Mansion are also abundant, and there is no chaos, which can be regarded as competent and accurate." ”

"Your Majesty Xie......" Xia Yongkang arched his hand.

"When they arrived, they came to the Heart Cultivation Hall to discuss matters." Emperor Shenwu waved his hand, signaling that he could retreat, and everyone shouted long live before exiting the Heart Cultivation Palace.
