Section 74 Preparation for War

"Your Majesty, urgent report. ”

Li Deyu hurriedly broke into the Qingliang Palace, and the emperor was recuperating at that time.

The damage caused by Dao Sheng's work and the poison caused by his own true qi riot were superimposed, making Li Xu feel that it was best to stay in the palace and cultivate honestly during this period of time.

As for anything else, I still have to forget about it for the time being.

Li Deyu is now in power, he has always walked casually in the palace, and there are no taboos, even when Li Xuyun was cultivating, Chen Chaoen, who was in charge of the affairs of the Qingliang Palace, did not stop him from entering the palace.

Of course, this is not the meaning of Chen Gonggong deliberately stumbling on Li Deyu.

Li Xu slowly exhaled a breath, came back to his senses, and looked at Li Deyu who hurriedly broke into the palace.

This prime minister is indeed the most suitable for a bachelor of Hanlin, he is sharp-minded, resourceful and energetic.

"Wen Rao, what's wrong?"

Li Deyu's face was a little urgent, which was rarely seen in him who had always paid attention to Yongyu's calmness.

Something that can make Li Deyu so anxious must be a big deal.

"Hedong secret report, yesterday Yufuguo has gathered people and horses, from Jinyang to set off at night, whether it is south or west, has not been explored clearly. ”

Li Xu was silent in his heart, Yu Fuguo did not move in the morning and did not move in the evening, but at this time, the Xingjin Yang Armor was obviously because the news that Yue Gu Han was killed by the Dao Saint spread.

"It seems that this Fish General still values the Sword Sect more. ”

Li Xu thought about it for a while, and suddenly felt a little clear.

When the emperor killed Cheng Qili, most of the people who assisted him thought that he had borrowed the power of Yue Guhan, and this father-in-law of Yu sat in the east of the river to observe the situation out of prudence.

Now that Yue Guhan has an accident, it will be difficult for Yu Fuguo to press it, or reach an agreement with someone else, so he has to take advantage of the fact that he is not trapped in Jinyang.

From Jinyang to the south, the best way to take is to go straight to the Hezhong Jiedu envoy area, from the south through the Fengling crossing to break through the Tongguan.

Although the river is now frozen and can be crossed everywhere, there are many states and counties along the road, and it is easier to raise supplies from Yufu Country.

In addition to going south through the river, there is also a road, but it is more dangerous, that is, through Jinyang to the west, cross the Wuding River into Suizhou, and then go south through Yanzhou.

Generally speaking, it is more stable to go to the river, and it is a little more troublesome to go to the line of Suizhou and Yanzhou.

"Wang Baochen has already handed over the statement, hoping that His Majesty can send him reinforcements, otherwise he will not be able to stop Yu Fuguo with his strength. ”

As he spoke, Li Deyu took out a letter from his cuffs and presented it to the emperor with both hands.

Of course, the most important thing is that the river festival envoy Wang Baochen.

This envoy of the river festival is the only surviving literary party.

Since the Wen Party came to power after the Holy Empress came to power, it was the end of Li Xu's joint Yu Fuguo and Cheng Qili's exertion of means.

But the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff. Although the core has collapsed, there are still one or two characters with the label of the Wen Party who are still standing up.

Wen Yuanheng, who was degraded to Lingnan, is considered one, and Wang Baochen, the envoy of the river festival, is also one.

After Li Xu defeated Cheng Qili last time, making Yu Fuguo can only entrench himself in the east of the river like a lone wolf, this envoy of the river festival immediately expressed his side to the emperor on the emperor's side, and transferred the army under his leadership to the north, blocking the way for Yu Fuguo to go south back to Beijing.

When the emperor broke Tibet, this Wang Baochen also went to the congratulatory table for the first time, and said that he wanted to enter Beijing to see him.

The performance of the two times before and after made the imperial court judge that this envoy of the river festival was a good comrade who stood firmly with the imperial court, so he was appeased by the imperial court.

The imperial court also gave Wang Baochen, an old man from the border army, an additional title of the secretary of the school and the Ministry of Rites as a commendation.

"In the past, I was able to stop Yufuguo, but now I can't. ”

Li Xu flipped through Wang Baochen's expression, and his heart was more determined.

"In the past, I had a tacit understanding with Yufuguo, so I could block it. Now that there is no tacit understanding between the two sides, it is naturally unstoppable. ”

Li Deyu replied.

Needless to say, everyone knows the bad things between the envoys of the various feudal towns in the world.

The last time Bai Yujing was in the middle of the incident, Yu Fuguo had no intention of going south, so he and Wang Baochen had a tacit understanding with each other and put on a good show.

Wang Baochen was recognized and commended by the imperial court, and Yu Fuguo also gave Bai Yujing enough pressure to win time to breathe and adjust.

Now this time, Yu Fuguo may really have the intention of forcing Bai Yujing, so Wang Baochen can't help but be in a hurry.

"Wen Rao, what do you think?"

Li Deyu pondered for a moment and replied, "Weichen is abrupt. Weichen thought that it would be more appropriate to ask His Majesty to personally lead a group of soldiers and horses to patrol the Xinghe Mansion. ”

Li Xu knew that this answer was actually the most reasonable.

In today's DPRK and China, the only one who can match or even surpass Yufuguo is Li Xu himself.

If he led a strong army like the Wuyun Iron Guard directly to the river, Wang Baochen would naturally give up the so-called thinking of riding the wall left and right.

And Yu Fuguo or in the face of such pressure will directly retreat to Jinyang, between advancing and retreating, and this disaster will be eliminated.

However, it is indeed not suitable for me to go on an expedition now, let alone face a master of the seven sects like Yu Fuguo.

"Chaoen, go to pass the Han Festival to the palace. ”

Li Xu put the expression aside and called out to the eunuch beside him.

"Your Majesty. Li Deyu bowed and said: "If the Ministry of Korean Industry is the commander, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat Yufuguo." ”

"Don't get in the way, this Wang Baochen still has to take another look, if he has reached a compromise with Yu Fuguo in private, and just waits for my soldiers and horses to come over, wouldn't the court be very passive?"

Li Deyu was silent, to put it bluntly, the identity of this Wang Baochen was very embarrassing, which made the court dare not trust.

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing. Li Deyu slowly pondered and finally said it.

"Weichen got the news that the Dao Sage went to Qilian Mountain after leaving the capital, thinking that there should be a lair of the Dao Sage there. ”

Li Xu's brows furrowed, he really had more than enough heart for Dao Saint now.

Dao Sheng ran to Qilian Mountain, and he wanted to go there to recuperate, and according to the law of Dao Sheng's actions, there must be an underground palace there.

"Is the information reliable?"

"It's very reliable, the Bashu master Chai Lang has taken refuge in the imperial court, and this is the news that he has come back. After the Dao Sage appeared in the mirror, Chai Lang followed the rebel Taigong Chong of Lianyun Village all the way, and finally arrived near Qilian Mountain. ”

Chai Lang, Li Xu nodded, the emperor still has some impressions of this person, about a month ago, he reported to the emperor about a month ago, saying that this underworld master was determined to wash his name and change his official body, and contacted Li Jifu, and turned this relationship to take the line of mentioning the prison envoy.

Li Xu also nodded at that time, and included this Chai Lang in the record of the prison envoy, which was regarded as a supernumerary person, and he only waited for him to enter the palace and personally inspect it before setting a specific rank and rank.

Unexpectedly, this person actually slipped all the way to Qilian Mountain with Taigong Chong, a big bald head.

"The matter of Dao Sheng, let's put it aside for a while. ”

Li Xu shook his head.

He is a person who truly feels the strength of the Dao Saint, and he knows that even if he is injured, Wu Ming is not something that can be killed by just a few grandmasters.

Since this Chai Lang is dizzy, he is not afraid of death, and since he is willing to follow the Dao Sheng, let him go.

Now that Yu Fuguo has finally made some noise, he now has no time to waste on Wuming's affairs.

Not long after, Han Rui was hurriedly introduced to the Qingliang Hall by Chen Chaoen.

After a brief salute, Li Deyu introduced the specific situation to him.

"What are the chances of the general winning against Shangyu Fuguo?" asked Li Xu.

Han Rui lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "The last general doesn't know His Majesty's strategy, if you want to defeat Yufu Kingdom or even recover Hedong, it is really beyond the power of Weichen, but if you block this fight with Wang Baochen, the last general is still a little sure." ”

What Han Rui said was the problem of great strategy, to tell the truth, even with the current strength of the imperial court, Li Xu was still in his heyday before he could lead a large army to defeat and defeat Yufuguo.

As for how to deal with the chaos in the north and resist the harassment of the Uighurs in the north, they were also unable to deal with it.

"How sure are you that he is in the north of Jinju?"

"Yu Fuguo has been in charge of the Shence Army for a long time, and if you want to fight him, you must have the Dark Cloud Iron Guard and wait for the new army to be in hand before you can speak. ”

"All the money is allocated to you. Li Xu nodded.

"If this is the case, Weichen has the dark cloud iron guard in hand, and then joins forces with Wang Baochen, about thirty percent of the certainty, and the Yufu country will be in the river. ”

Sancheng, Li Xu was silent, among the generals available to him now, the one with the highest martial arts and the most rich military experience is the second son of Han Gang, the middle secretary.

With Han Rui's skills and an elite wargroup like the Dark Cloud Iron Guard, he also felt that he was only 30% sure when facing the Yufu Country, and the power of this Yufu Country was really amazing.

"What if you add a national teacher to Luo Yan?" Li Xu continued.

Na Luo Yan is also more or less a master of the Seven Sects realm.

"Your Majesty, the martial arts of the national teacher are still a little ...... from Yuying"

Na Luo Yan's martial arts are not as good as Yu Fuguo, this does not need Han Rui to say that Li Xu also knows.

It's just that now in addition to inviting Na Luo Yan to help, Li Xu is really lacking in people.

"How sure are you?" the emperor's tone was firm.

"If there is the help of the national teacher, I am fifty percent sure. Han Rui pondered for a moment and reported a number again.

Han Rui then added.

"If the Sword Sect is still there now, and he makes a move, then I am ten percent sure. ”

If the illiteracy is still there, Yufuguo will not even have the courage to go south. Li Xu once again recalled the voice and appearance of the Chengtian Sword Sect, and only when he lost it would he remember the beauty when he was still there.

However, adding a Naroyan will also add two percent. Li Xu also knew that there was some friendship between Na Luo Yan and Yu Fuguo, and Na Luo Yan did not stand on Yu Fuguo's side at the beginning, but now let Na Luo Yan get on the horse and fight against Yu Fuguo, I'm afraid it's not a good thing.

"Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, the safest thing is for you to go into battle in person. Han Rui's opinion is the same as Li Deyu's.

The emperor thought about it and finally made up his mind.

"Wen Rao. Li Xu said to Li Deyu, "You go and transfer troops and horses, and use the dark clouds and iron guards as the foundation to form a military horse for Han Shuai." ”

"You take this army to Fenglingdu. ”

Li Xu's fingers tapped lightly on his temples: "There is no room for loss in the river, Wang Baochen can't believe it all, and you can't believe it, you can support him over there, once Yufuguo really passes Jinzhou, you will cross the river to make peace with him and join forces to fight." ”

The Emperor sighed, and it seemed that he had no choice but to go that way.
