"Fifty thousand bandits attacked the city, flooded the bandits, and won a big victory! And the bandits on the northern front have been routed on all fronts, and the northern front has won! ”

The generals suddenly exploded!

No way, it's absolutely impossible!

No matter how weak the bandits on the northern front were, it was nearly 100,000 troops, how could they be beaten back.

"Marshal, this is impossible, there are definitely people who lie about the military situation!"

Over the past year or so, bandits have fought and won consecutive battles, which has been deeply rooted in the bones of these generals.

Pingyi City gathered the most elite soldiers of Daji, and they didn't repel the bandits, how could the little force on the northern front win the bandits?

What's more, Yongguan will be Chen Chao?

A civil officer.

A civilian official who has never been on the battlefield before, who may not even be able to pick up a knife, and who is powerless.

How could he know how to fight.

And also take advantage of the flooding strategy to defeat the bandits?

How can it be.

It can't be, it's something that can't happen.

None of the generals believed the contents of the letter, which was stamped with the letters of the generals of several cities on the northern front.

There are not only Chen Chao's, but also several other main generals.

Even if Chen Chao lied alone, the others would not lie together.

This letter is true!

Absolutely true.

Chen Chao has made a great contribution!

……

……

A few days later.

Thousands of miles away in the capital.

In the second year of Yongxing, since the beginning of summer, heavy rains have hit one after another, indicating that this year's summer is not ordinary.

The military report from the border pass Yunzhou was brought back to the capital by horse and brought to the desk of the emperor and the princes of the imperial court, although the imperial court deliberately concealed the news on the war report, but there was still gossip that the war situation in Yunzhou was not optimistic, and the land of Yunzhou was about to be handed over.

The people of the capital were panicked, for fear that the bandits would go all the way east and hit the capital, and more wealthy families began to pack their luggage and move all the way south.

The Daji court was lifeless, and every time he went to court, the hundred officials only felt that there was a lingering haze hanging over the Jinluan Palace, which was depressing and terrifying.

Early this morning.

The young emperor Yongxing Emperor still had two mouthfuls of breakfast as usual, and hurried to the imperial study to continue to deal with government affairs.

The morning court meeting did not go well, and some officials in the court already advocated allowing Yunzhou to become independent.

Since then, Yunzhou has not been the territory of Daji.

As soon as this idea was proposed, it was immediately refuted by Emperor Yongxing.

In addition, all the officials who spoke were dismissed from their posts.

This young emperor will not watch the loss of territory in the Great Era.

Coming to the imperial study, Emperor Yongxing sat behind the dragon case and dealt with political affairs.

After a short time, a few scholars from Wenchang Pavilion arrived to report on government affairs.

"Over there in Yunzhou, how is the battle going?" Emperor Yongxing asked anxiously.

It's a question he asks every day.

Although the answers he got were pretty much the same, he was always looking forward to the day when he would get a different answer.

"Back to Your Majesty, the battle situation is not optimistic, the three thousand gorges on the southern front have been lost, and 20,000 soldiers have been martyred!"

“……”

Emperor Yongxing slowly put down the fold in his hand, supported his smooth forehead with one hand, and his expression became lonely.

Several scholars didn't say much, and let Emperor Yongxing's eyes be in a daze.

After a while, the little eunuch outside the door shouted:

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

Several scholars looked at each other when they heard this, but did not say a word.

It's really strange that since the Queen Mother returned from the palace to pray for blessings, she has not become the same as before, but comes to bring soup to the emperor every day, and sometimes she has to listen to government affairs for a while.

Hundreds of officials said that the queen mother wanted to take advantage of the emperor's young age to meddle in government affairs.

But to say that the queen mother wants to meddle in government affairs, she doesn't have any other actions, every time she listens to the government affairs report for a while, she goes back, does not express any opinions, and does not make any moves in private.

It seems that I just want to learn about state affairs simply!

Murong Yue, who was wearing a fiery red palace skirt, crossed the high threshold, took a few maidservants into the imperial study, and personally put the soup on the dragon case.

"Thank you, mother......" Yongxing raised his eyes and responded perfunctorily.

He also didn't understand the purpose of Murong Yue's coming over every day, the only thing he knew was that this woman was very interested in the situation in Yunzhou, and every time the official reported, she couldn't help but sit up straight, holding her breath and listening carefully, for fear of missing a word.

The little eunuch brought a round stool, and the Queen Mother Murong Yue sat down as usual.

In the imperial study, several scholars have their own places, and they are reading the recitals submitted from all over the country, and they will only submit them to Emperor Yongxing after they have been approved, which greatly reduces the workload of the emperor.

Otherwise, the recitals that are presented from all over the country every day will have to be read by Emperor Yongxing alone, and he will have to die of exhaustion.

I don't know how long it took, but the tea was used twice, and the sun was shining.

Finally, there was a sound of eager footsteps outside the hall, and everyone in the imperial study stopped their movements and raised their heads to look at the door.

An official of the Ministry of War hurriedly entered the imperial study, and after kneeling, he raised the fold in his hand above his head:

"Your Majesty, Yunzhou Military News!"

It must have been a call for help.

Several scholars thought of it in unison.

The battle situation in Yunzhou was tragic, the officers and soldiers of Daji held hard for several months, and the loss of troops was serious.

"Is it from Pingyi City?" Emperor Yongxing asked casually.

"It's not." The military officer shook his head, raised his head and said, "It's from the northern front, Yongguan!" ”

As soon as this place name came out, everyone present was breathless, and a bad premonition shrouded everyone's hearts.

Rush off!

Could it be that Yongguan has also been lost?

"Surge...... How is it? How's the battle going? Emperor Yongxing felt that his voice was trembling slightly.

A few days ago, the news of the loss of Sanqianxia came, if the Yongguan of the northern line was lost again, Pingyi City would really not be able to hold it, and the whole territory of Yunzhou would fall.

I saw that the official of the military department opened the recital, spread it out and read it out:

"On September 2, the second year of Yongxing, Yao Wu led 50,000 bandits in the territory to attack Yongguan in the early morning, and the Changsheng army engaged, and in this battle, all the soldiers of the Changsheng army hated the enemy and killed 9,000 enemies...... Seven days later, on September 9, Chang Sheng's army took advantage of the Yonghe River to carry out a flood plan, and none of the 50,000 bandits remained...... Half a month later, when the water receded, the Changsheng army went all the way south, cooperated with the cavalry of the Shaoshan Battalion, supported other cities on the northern front, and destroyed 20,000 bandits! At this point, the bandits on the northern front were routed......"

……

The battle report was read out.

In the imperial study, everyone opened their round mouths, dumbfounded, and stunned on the spot.

Several scholars and Emperor Yongxing were still awakened by the sudden sound of crying with joy from the imperial study, and they slowly came to their senses.

I saw that Murong Yue, who was wearing a palace skirt and was graceful and luxurious, was already crying silently at the moment, covering her sleeves and sobbing quietly.

She was so happy.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"

Several scholars stood up in unison and congratulated Emperor Yongxing after the Dragon Case.

However, at this time, Emperor Yongxing had obviously not recovered from the shock.

"Victory, victory?"

"Your Majesty, it's a victory, it's a victory, you heard it right." Several scholars hunched their waists and said with great joy.

"Still a big win! Is it a big victory? Emperor Yongxing tried to ask again.

"Exactly!"

Everyone in the study nodded their heads one after another, their faces full of smiles.

After waiting for a long time, Emperor Yongxing slowly stood up, but somehow, his body suddenly staggered forward, and he almost didn't stand firm, and the little eunuch behind him wanted to reach out to help, but was interrupted by Emperor Yongxing waving his hand.

He leaned on the table and laughed: "Okay, good, it's good to win, it's good to win......"

"Come on, spread my message, and quickly post this good news inside and outside the capital, so that the people of the capital will rejoice!"
