Chapter 193: Governance and War

Qinzhou Yong'an, Dahua Imperial Court.

At this moment, the Golden Palace is crowded with hundreds of officials of the Manchu Dynasty, civil officials and military generals are assigned to stand, and their opposing postures are distinct, not only are the two sides glaring at each other viciously, but even curse each other in a whisper to vent their hatred.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a play!"

A rather vicissitudes of life came out of the civil official array, and I saw a majestic old man in a splendid official uniform walking out of the front of the civil official array, and then bowed his head and leaned over, holding the jade plate tightly with both hands, taking a diagonal step in the direction where the emperor was sitting, and kneeling down.

"Wang Shangshu, you are the former emperor's important minister, and the foundation of my Dahua is located, don't kneel, I hope you will ask for it quickly." ”

Looking at the old man who was trembling and about to kneel down under his feet, Emperor Lu Feng, who was sitting on the dragon chair of the Golden Palace, suddenly said a little helplessly and anxiously.

I saw that at this time, Lu Feng's face was ruddy, a dragon aura was hidden in his body, and the whole person looked very majestic, the so-called royal bearing was vividly expressed on his body, under a pair of sword eyebrows, the eyes full of extreme wisdom were staring intently at every courtier under his feet, and the sharpness of his eyes was like at this moment, he was able to penetrate all the gloom above the court just by relying on this visual speculation, coupled with the firm nose bridge on his face and his half-pursed lips, the whole person was really like a real dragon descending to earth at this moment, even if he was talking with a kind spirit at the moment, but from his behavior alone, it is already full of endless nobility and majesty, full of endless decisiveness and resoluteness.

"If Your Majesty wants to force war again, I will not be able to kneel for a long time. ”

I saw that Wang Shangshu, who was about to breathe for a long time after even finishing the whole sentence, actually attached his body lower at this moment, and then insisted on living up to the royal authority here, and insisted on starting to shout at Lu Feng.

"It's... Wang Shangshu, aren't you embarrassed, if you have something to say, please get up and say it, you said that if you have a mistake, I can't explain it to the emperor. ”

Looking at Wang Shangshu's stubborn appearance and tone, Lu Feng not only said with an ugly face.

"Your Majesty, we can't fight this battle, at the moment Danjin Erzhou is already seriously flooded, in order to suppress the local bandit problem caused by the flood, and in order to allow the two states to adjust as soon as possible, the imperial court has appeared empty treasury for this reason, plus a few months ago General Li led an army of 250,000 to attack a small sect, under such a force, General Li can still make the troops in his hands more than half of the loss, and that's it, General Li brought us back is just a piece of ruins, and now we are short of food and grass and the army is unstable, in such a state, we should not be brave again, as the so-called self-uneasiness, how can you settle the world, Your Majesty thinks twice!"

Wang Shangshu fell to the ground and gasped and said loudly.

"Your Majesty's ministers have objections, Wang Shangshu is really a rat-eyed person, at this moment Xia Zhijie has already raised a large army to press the border, I am afraid that if his army wants to break through the boundary of Huizhou, it is also a matter of time, and if it is because the imperial court does not send troops in time to cause the loss of the capital protection mansion, then his Xia Zhijie's sword will be directed at the hinterland of my Dahua, then my Dahua 40,000 people, it will completely become the meat on the chopping board of others, so Weichen suggested that he immediately send troops to recruit Xia Zhijie. ”

And just as Wang Shangshu finished speaking, he saw a rather burly general striding forward from the military general's formation, and then knelt down and said loudly.

"General Ge!"

After Wang Shangshu heard General Ge's recital, he immediately bowed up angrily, and then stared at General Ge with an angry face and scolded angrily:

"You are a fat-headed horseman, how can the national society say that the troops will be sent to the army, at present, the floods in Danjin Erzhou are frequent, so the people are not talking about the village and there is no harvest, do you know that in order to rectify the floods, the household department has done its best, there is no more grain and grass to fund the war, and now the people can't even eat, who cares about being a soldier to fight, the soldiers can't be recruited, how can you talk about marching and fighting!"

I saw Wang Shangshu angrily pointing at General Ge's nose and scolding him, because of his age, Wang Shangshu, who was still angry, kept coughing.

"Quick... Quickly give Wang Shangshu a seat and water. ”

Seeing that Lu Feng glanced at General Ge meaningfully, he immediately ordered the eunuch to prepare water and chairs for Wang Shangshu.

"Wang Shangshu, the current flood is indeed serious, but the war in the southwest is also on the verge of breaking out, in comparison, your flood is too insignificant, as the so-called test country is the country of the people, the sky is the heaven of the people, and Your Majesty, as the son of the sky, will definitely be guarded, if the national wall collapses, how can you Wang Shangshu dare to sit in the court and drink water quietly at this moment?"

Although Wang Shangshu was already flushed and coughing at this moment, General Ge still argued with him on the basis of reason.

"You... Piff... Piff..."

Seeing that General Ge was getting more and more energetic, Wang Shangshu was heartbroken and painful after speaking.

"Okay, okay, let's stop, my ears hurt to hear it, don't talk about it anymore, except for Wang Shangshu and General Ge, do all Aiqing have other ideas?"

I saw that Lu Feng seemed to be extremely impatient and plucked his ears with his fingers, then he glanced at General Ge and the many generals behind him with a dark face, and then slowly asked about the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a reconsideration. ”

As soon as Lu Feng finished speaking, he saw a very young civil official holding a jade plaque in both hands, swaggering out of the civil official array, and then knelt down and said quickly:

"At present, the two states of Danjin are flooded and bandits, and they have already reached the point where they have to be treated, after all, these two states have always been grain and grass states, and they are the foundation of my Dahua's survival, so we must not ignore these because of some external factors, let's analyze Xia Zhijie, who led the army to attack, Huizhou as a state border between China and Huaxu, its state is rich in rich mineral resources, which is also the top priority for my Dahua, so we can't lose Huizhou, since the Duhufu completely took over the forces in Zhenxi Houfu and then its state boundary, the strength of the defenders of the entire Huizhou has actually declined more than one or two points, But this is not something we can use as an excuse, but if he Xia Zhijie still goes his own way, he is determined to lead the army to invade our territory, even if it is just to invade an acre of land, we can't just look at it with such a blank eye, so this battle must be fought when necessary, but how to fight, when to fight this must be carefully studied, but as Wang Shangshu said, at present, because we have been crusading against major forces in various places for many years, quelling rebellions in various places, and maintaining the security of our state borders, this has also caused most of the people in our country to be extremely war-weary, which has also caused us to have the fact that it is difficult to recruit soldiersIn order to provide disaster relief, the imperial court has taken the surplus grain in the treasury for disaster relief, but who would have thought that this Cangzhou has not yet recovered from the follow-up of the drought, and the two prefectures of Danjin have been flooded again this year, and the disaster relief grain in the treasury has not been collected and filled from the people, and this disaster relief is not enough, how can there be more food for marching and fighting? Therefore, in Weichen's view, the flood can be cured, Huizhou can be prevented, the two are like a person's left foot and right foot, both are indispensable, and according to Weichen's understanding, it is rumored that Hua Xu's second prince has now reached the age of the weak crown, and my Dahua's Changfang county lord has also reached the age of this cabinet, why not take this opportunity to give the Changfang county lord to Hua Xu's second prince, and then we will send a peace messenger to the Huaxu royal court to ask for peace, and we will take advantage of this peace to rectify the existing water bandits in the country, and wait for us to completely rectify the rear, and then discuss with Hua Xu about Xia Zhijie's invasion this time。 ”

After seeing the civil official crackle, he knelt quietly in place, waiting for Lu Feng's decision.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

......

"The minister also seconded it!"

......

"The minister also seconded it!"

......

For a while, the entire civil official array instantly seconded the proposal, looking at the civil official who knelt down in front of him, Lu Feng's face was black and terrifying.

"Li Xuan, tell me, what do you think about this. ”

Suddenly, Lu Feng inadvertently glanced at Li Xuan, who was in the military attache formation, and after seeing him smile evilly, he threw this thorny question to the other party.
