Prime Minister Lu Yunhe hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what happened to Xiguan?"

The Emperor replied: "Alas, it is difficult to say a word, Huaide, read out the urgent report for everyone to hear." After saying that, he handed the emergency report to Huaide, who opened the emergency report and began to read it aloud.

"Zhao Xing, the hussar general on the border of Xiguan Town, respectfully plays His Majesty the Emperor. On June 3 of the fourth year of Xingde, a white-haired old man dressed in the shabby military uniform of Daxuan suddenly came to the inner pass of Luoxian City, who claimed to be a messenger for help who had lost the outer pass of 'Yuchuan City', and reported that although Waiguan had fallen and surrendered, Yuchuan City has held on to this day. More than 50 years have passed, and the defenders in the city have gray hair, and they asked that they had sent messengers for help for many years, but there was no news, and they did not know whether the court did not know or the court ignored them. The last general replied that he had not seen the messenger for help, and he was the first person. ”

The last general did not dare to slack off, and immediately reported to the assassin Yu Xiuran, hoping that he would ask His Majesty to make a holy judgment, but who knew that Yu Xiuran ignored it, and also took the messenger down and imprisoned him, calling him a Dinu spy, and put the messenger in prison, and warned the last general not to listen to the words of the treacherous side. ”

On June 5, the last general named Liu Changqing, the captain of the cavalry, and ordered him to quietly leave the city with 200 elite cavalry, and wanted to lead his troops to the outer pass to find out, and a few days later he got the news. ”

"On June 9, Liu Changqing's department came to report that everything was true, and Liu Changqing's department had joined up with Liu Cangshui, a veteran of Yuchuan City, and resisted the Dinu army together. The last general knew that this matter was very urgent, so he reported it to Xiuran, but Yu Xiuran couldn't shirk it, and the last general had no other way but to overstep his authority to stab Shi Yu Xiuran, and sent a quick horse to report to His Majesty, in order to get His Majesty's holy judgment. Great Xuan calendar, June 11 of the fourth year of Xingde, hussar general Zhao Xing Jingqi. ”

After Huaide finished reading, there was a boiling in the court, not only the ministers were surprised, but Wu Nai and Liu Baoshuang were also stunned. Because, they heard Liu Changqing's name, and they also heard the news that Liu Changqing was good at leading people out of the customs.

Wu Nai was afraid that Liu would be in a hurry, so he hurriedly glanced at her, told her not to interject, and said very quietly: "Don't be rude in the court, and listen first, I will see the opportunity to act in a while." ”

Although Liu Baoshuang was so anxious, she had no choice but to nod, because her heart was also a mess now, and she didn't know what to do.

"Quiet!" Lu Yunhe shouted, and the ministers who were still talking immediately stopped, and the court returned to its proper majesty and quietness.

The emperor asked Lu Yunhe anxiously, "Prime Minister, what do you think?"

Lu Yunhe stroked his white beard, and after thinking for a while, he began to say: "Your Majesty, the old minister will ask a question first, does Your Majesty know the details of Yuchuan City outside Xiguan?"

The Emperor replied: "Of course. Fifty years before my Great Xuan, and before my imperial grandfather's crusade against the faint monarch, Yuchuan City was the first fortified city in the outer pass of my Great Xuan Xiguan, and it was also the first gate to resist the invasion of Dinu. Later, the war against the faint king began, and Di Nu took advantage of the danger of my Daxuan to annex all the outer passes of Xiguan, and after the outer passes were lost, I Daxuan can only rely on the inner passes of Xiguan to resist the iron hooves of Dinu. ”

Lu Yunhe nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and then said, "Okay, it's good that Your Majesty knows." Then the old minister doesn't sell Guanzi, this Liu Cangshui does have his own person, when he was seventeen years old when he was stationed at the border pass, he repeatedly performed miraculous feats, this person was brave and loyal, and the name of loyalty was spread throughout the entire Daxuan at that time. As for who can defend the city alone for more than 50 years, in the opinion of the old minister, there is no one else but him. The minister thinks that it should be saved......!

The emperor knew what Prime Minister Lu Yunhe wanted to say, so he answered: "But the border army of Xiguan has sent more than half of them to aid Beiguan a few days ago, and now the border army is short of soldiers and horses, and there are no soldiers available. ”

Lu Yunhe nodded and returned: "What Your Majesty said is true. But it's not like there's no other way. After that, Lu Yunhe turned his gaze to Zhang Zhiguan, who was pinching the military power in the Guannei, and then continued: "Chen Qijuan, it is time to send reinforcements from the Guannai to rescue the city to solve the urgent needs of Yuchuan City. ”

What the prime minister means at this moment is not only to save people to boost the morale of the border army, but also to take the opportunity to ask the six giants led by Zhang Zhiguan to go out to the border.

In this way, one, you can probe the details of the army of this group of guys. Second, they can take the opportunity to break down the cohesion of their troops and divide them into the border army for their own use. Third, they should use their troops to relieve the urgent need to alleviate the problem of the increasing shortage of border troops. Fourth, taking this opportunity as an opportunity, it will be more convenient to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Hao clan in the future.

Although the emperor did not understand everything, he probably understood some of the meanings. So he was about to nod his head yes, but at this moment, he heard a sneer from Zhang Zhiguan, the squire of the military department on the side, and then said: "Hmph! Defending the city for more than 50 years? What kind of fantasy is it." This is clearly Dinu's trick! Obviously, he wants to lure me out of the customs and then surround and annihilate him. How can the Prime Minister not understand?"

Lu Yunhe also smiled coldly, and then returned: "This is strange, how can Master Zhang be able to bite the trick of Di Nu at this time? Could it be that Di Nu sent someone to tell Lord Zhang?"

When Zhang Zhiguan heard this, he became anxious, and immediately retorted: "How can this be true! Lu Xiangye! Don't rely on your respect as a master to talk nonsense! Your Majesty! Prime Minister Lu Yunhe spews blood! You want to be the master for me!"

Before the emperor could answer, Lu Yunhe took the lead and choked back: "Hahahaha, Lord Zhang's words are wrong, my 'Taishi' is just a false name, how can it be compared to your Zhongguo Gong who is in charge of the army in Guannei and can call the wind and rain." His Majesty the Emperor has no soldiers at the border, so don't I have to look at your eyes and act? How dare I compete with you?"

Ridiculed by Lu Yunhe's insinuations, Zhang Zhiguan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and he roared angrily: "You! Lu Yunhe! Don't go too far! Aren't the troops in this pass the same as the border army, all of them are His Majesty's soldiers and horses? What is your intention in making this statement!?"

"Oh, since they are all His Majesty's soldiers and horses, why don't you ask Your Majesty now, immediately allocate troops and horses from the states of the six feudal domains in the Guannai, and immediately go to the aid of Xiguan?"

Zhang Zhiguan refused: "The troops in the Guannai have a heavy responsibility to guard it!

Lu Yunhe didn't pay attention to it at all, and said with a muttering look: "Hmph, after talking for a long time, the soldiers and horses of the six feudal clans in this pass still can't be adjusted." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Zhiguan's eyes widened, and he stared at Lu Yunhe angrily, and he wanted to attack again, but he heard that the emperor had already stood up.

"Okay, okay! Don't quarrel anymore! Let's listen to me first, okay?"
