Chapter 163: The Imperial Expedition
After the father and son met, Luo Yi took the two to the sleeping palace of the Eastern Emperor.
Now that the eunuch Zhao, the spy beside the emperor, is no longer there, and he doesn't have to worry about being known by outsiders.
After the Eastern Emperor saw Chu Hongwang, he personally got up to greet him, and even held Chu Hongwang's hands without the slightest disgust.
"General Chu, these days, you have been wronged. ”
Chu Hongwang was frightened, knelt down on one knee and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty's love, give the minister a chance to return to the battlefield to kill the enemy." ”
The Eastern Emperor hurriedly pulled Chu Hongwang up and said, "Don't say that, in the northern Xinjiang, General Chu is indispensable." ”
Chu Hongwang was full of emotion, what did he ask for if he got this Mingjun.
Then, he realized that his precious son did not react at all when he saw the emperor.
"Cloud, you...... Why don't you salute Your Majesty?" Chu Hongwang was too straightforward, and said it directly.
The Eastern Emperor's face suddenly froze, and then quickly returned to his senses, and he smiled: "It's okay, the virtuous nephew doesn't need to salute me......"
The Eastern Emperor had long guessed that Chu Yun was hiding very deeply, and he learned from Princess Mingyue that Chu Yun had already built a foundation.
Joke, such a young master of foundation building, and he is a disciple of Fuyun Zhenren, the Eastern Emperor will still let him salute now?
I'm afraid that even if Chu Yun took the initiative to kneel, the Eastern Emperor would not be willing to ......
Chu Hongwang didn't know this, and was in a dilemma: "This ......"
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it, the virtuous nephew will be a powerful figure in the world sooner or later, so why care about these red tapes. The Eastern Emperor relieved Chu Hongwang's embarrassment with a word, and then took the initiative to bring up the plan.
Chu Hongwang had more doubts in his heart, and said in his heart, why does His Majesty attach so much importance to the clouds?
However, he didn't have the heart to think about it anymore, because the Eastern Emperor had already said business.
"General Chu, this time I went to the northern frontier to completely get rid of the traitors. If my guess is right, Zhao Rui has already controlled the military power in the northern Xinjiang. ”
Chu Hongwang nodded thoughtfully, a person like Zhao Rui who was insidious and deeply hidden, would definitely gather military power in one.
"However, no matter how much he controls the military power, he can't compare to me, and he can't compare to General Chu!" The Eastern Emperor changed his words, "Although General Chu was a deputy general in Northern Xinjiang, his prestige is definitely higher than that of Zhao Rui. ”
In this regard, Chu Hongwang also agreed: "That's right, after the minister dies, some of the former henchmen will be absorbed by Zhao Rui, but once the minister appears and Zhao Rui's conspiracy is exposed, those old generals will inevitably make the right choice again." ”
"That's right. The Eastern Emperor smiled confidently, "So when the time comes, General Chu only needs to gather the old generals, together with the elites I brought with me, as well as the ambush soldiers near the northern frontier, to suppress Zhao Rui and his diehards! ”
Chu Hongwang has been in the army for many years, so he naturally understands the plan of the Eastern Emperor.
Moreover, he did not doubt the plan of the Eastern Emperor, although the Eastern Emperor did not say it too explicitly, but all the arrangements must have been in place.
"Also, I heard Luo Yi say that the virtuous nephew also wants to go to Northern Xinjiang. The Eastern Emperor then said to Chu Yun, "On the surface, I will lead 100,000 elite soldiers to the northern frontier, and the virtuous nephew and General Chu will be mixed in it, how about it?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for arranging it. Chu Yun said respectfully.
Chu Hongwang was surprised: "What are you going to do?"
Chu Yun said very reasonably: "In a few days, I decided to find Fuyun Zhenren, before that, I have to make sure that you and the Chu family are safe and stable, right?"
Hearing this, Chu Hongwang's face showed a trace of excitement.
"Cloud, you ...... after all Have you chosen to meet a real person......"
Chu Yun could see Chu Hongwang's thoughts, and smiled: "Don't worry, old Chu, I'm just for myself, this is a decision I made myself, not for my mother." ”
"Really...... Then I will be at ease, no matter what, I believe in you, even if you are an immortal cultivator, you will definitely be superior!" Chu Hongwang was very pleased.
He originally thought that Chu Yun was forced to worship under Fuyun Zhenren in order to find his mother in order to find his mother.
If so, he, as a father, would feel very guilty.
Since it's the son's own choice, that's fine.
Chu Hongwang is not a mother-in-law, and he has enough confidence in his son.
............
After that, the Eastern Emperor stuffed Chu Hongwang and Chu Yun into a team of elite soldiers according to the plan.
The next day, outside the national capital, 200,000 elite troops were neatly arranged.
Under the attention of hundreds of people, the Eastern Emperor led 200,000 troops to the north!
These 200,000 troops will rush from the capital to the northern frontier, and the journey will not be short.
However, after all, this distance is within the territory of Fengyun Country, and there will be no enemies, as long as you keep marching.
Moreover, the Emperor of the East had already declared that this imperial expedition was mainly to stabilize the morale of the army.
If it is really going to fight the enemy, the impact of 200,000 people is not as great as imagined.
............
By the time the Eastern Emperor's army arrived at the northern border, a group of generals and hundreds of thousands of soldiers had been waiting for a long time.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live......"
"All soldiers are exempt from courtesy......"
Under the reception of the general Zhao Rui, the Eastern Emperor and 200,000 elite soldiers entered the Flying Howling Pass.
It's not so much the Howling Pass, it's the Roaring City.
In the northern frontier of Fengyun Kingdom, the Flying Wave Pass is the most important checkpoint, and most of the elite combat forces in the northern frontier are also stationed here.
Outside the Flying Whistle Pass, it is the junction of Fengyun Kingdom and Jiangtai.
Kannai, is a city Whistling City.
However, this Roaring City is very different from ordinary cities.
This Roaring City is completely for military purposes, and there are no civilians in it, only officers and soldiers.
Zhao Rui, as the general of Northern Xinjiang, naturally made all kinds of preparations after learning that the emperor was going to drive a personal expedition.
The Flying Storm Pass can be described as impregnable, the city is also a vast area, and many military camps around it are even more familiar, so the addition of 200,000 troops brought by the emperor did not make this military important place crowded.
After the Eastern Emperor entered the Roaring City, he bathed and changed his clothes to relieve the fatigue of traveling.
After that, he summoned the main generals of northern Xinjiang and gave orders.
"At this time, it is close to dusk, let the soldiers I brought have a good rest tonight, and early tomorrow morning, I will personally parade the army to strengthen the army!"
Several generals were ordered to retreat, and their hearts were settled. Recently, the army's morale has been shaken because of Chu Hongwang's betrayal, but this time His Majesty came in person, and the army's morale can be stable.
That's what some of the generals think.
However, there are also some who have evil intentions......
