Volume 2: Storms and clouds surging, thousands of miles south of the Yangtze River Chapter 328: The Eve of Dawn
In the Jinluan Hall, the morning sun passed through the plaque and shot into the main hall. Civil and military ministers were lined up on both sides. Shenwu Emperor Xia An was already forty-five years old this year. He should have been in his prime, but he ascended the throne at the age of twenty and experienced the Black Water.
After twenty years of war and court disputes, the Shenwu Emperor in his prime now showed signs of fatigue that he shouldn't have, and even the white hair on his head became more and more obvious.
Although he also deserted, was lazy, and indulged in the harem, but overall, he thought he was still a good emperor, and the reaction from the following was also very good. The two prime ministers worked conscientiously, but the Ministry of War was a bit weak, but fortunately Ning
Shan Mansion has Tiance Army and Shenji Camp, but Ningshan Mansion has been disobedient in the past five years. Ning Que followed his father to conquer the world, so he was somewhat neglected.
However, the military situation on the front line received yesterday was not optimistic. The negotiations between the Turkic Royal Court and the Yuan Dynasty ended in breakdown. Yeluji reorganized military affairs. Li Yuanhao himself was not to be outdone, and was preparing to personally conquer the Yuan Dynasty and take over the land of Liaodong.
Under the Turkic royal court.
At this time, Queen Dayuan, Xiao Yunshuang, suddenly came forward and went to the Turkic Royal Court in person. She only brought her family members and three thousand aguduo with her. Now she has appeared in the Turkic Royal Court in a high-profile manner. Is there a turning point in the matter, or what happened to the two families?
His attitude toward Da Xia changed drastically.
"Prime Minister Zuo, what do you think of this matter? Is there any new news in Liaodong and Turks that I don't know about?" Emperor Shenwu suddenly spoke, breaking the calm he had felt since reading the military report.
Li Linfu came out from the front row, bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, all the news was reported yesterday. I'm afraid it will take a few days for the latest news to be delivered."
Emperor Shenwu was silent for a moment: "The imperial court does not use this amount of money every year to raise waste. If you use these things that even the children in the market know to fool me, I will not let you off lightly."
Li Linfu's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground hastily: "I don't dare... I will investigate this matter thoroughly, and there won't be another time... I hope your majesty will forgive me..."
"Haha..." Emperor Shenwu suddenly laughed: "Get up, I'm sorry you don't dare, tell me what you think about this matter."
"My dear friends, don't be idle. Say whatever you have to say. It's all for the sake of the Great Xia Dynasty. Is there anything you can't say? Two prime ministers, do you think what I said is correct?"
At this moment, Li Linfu was still kneeling on the ground. Xia Yongkang came to Li Linfu's side, knelt down together, and said in unison: "I don't dare..."
When the officials behind him saw this, they all knelt down.
"Haha, I told you to get up, why are you still kneeling?" Emperor Shenwu smiled and said, "Get down flat..."
After all the officials shouted: "Long live thanks", they stood up and stood in their positions.
"Go ahead, Prime Minister, let's start with you."
Li Linfu cupped his hands and said: "Yes..."
"This time Empress Xiao of the Yuan Dynasty was very talented and bold. She had to admit that she was a hero among women. If anything happened to anyone in the Yuan Dynasty due to this, Yeluqi would definitely use this as an excuse to incite an army to conquer the Turks.
, the Turks will definitely protect the safety of Empress Xiao and others throughout the whole process." Li Linfu said, looking at the right minister Xia Yongkang.
Xia Yongkang continued: "Yes, and if Empress Xiao and others are treated as envoys to the Yuan Dynasty according to their respective states, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction in the Yuan Dynasty, and they can also make use of the topic. If they are treated according to the etiquette of the country, they will not fight.
Self-recruitment, recognizing the equal status of the Yuan Dynasty, it is difficult to deal with both left and right. The person who can come up with such a plan must not be an ordinary person. If the guess is correct, it should be Wanyan Aguduo. It is true, killing three birds with one stone.
Carving.”
"No matter what kind of result it is, it is extremely powerful for our Daxia Dynasty." Li Linfu took over Xia Yongkang's words and said: "The Turks cannot swallow this breath, and they will definitely take action on this trip, and
Neither does Dayuan
I will sit back and wait for death. If I, the Great Xia Dynasty, gather all our strength, wait until they are fighting to the death, pacify the bandits, collect only the granaries, and strengthen the troops. When the remaining ones are left, it will be the time for Your Majesty to regain Hexi and achieve eternal fame."
"No, no..." Xia Yongkang said: "Since these three situations are beneficial to our Great Xia Dynasty, no matter which one occurs, it is our opportunity. As long as it can prompt the two armies to fight, the front line
It will definitely involve a large number of troops, and the rear
It is definitely empty. As long as we seize the opportunity and reach an agreement with one party, we can attack from both sides and eliminate one. After the war, the other party will only be a defeated army. How can we stop our Daxia army? It will be overwhelming by then.
Difficult matter."
This battle between one and two factions was clearly visible to everyone in the court from the time when Xia Yongfang took office as the Right Prime Minister, and when Xia Yongfang took office, all the officials unconsciously divided into two factions.
The main war faction believes that after ten years of recuperation, the Great Xia Dynasty has reached the peak of the Shenwu Dynasty in terms of national strength, military strength and civilian power, and that the Yuan Dynasty and the Turks are brewing a war, waiting for the war to break out
, reap the benefits of being a fisherman, decide the world in one battle, and achieve eternal fame.
The Zhuhe faction believes that even after ten years of development, the Yuan Dynasty and the Turks are one between the black mountains and white waters, and the other is in the deep mountains and grasslands. Coupled with the material assistance from the Great Xia Dynasty in the past ten years, their national strength is not necessarily greater than that of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The DPRK is weak, not to mention they are fighting all the time, and their troops
The combat effectiveness of the army cannot be compared with that of the Great Xia Dynasty. I believe that no matter whether the two parties are developing, they must cooperate with the weaker party to maintain a three-legged stance, follow Cao Mengde's example, recharge their batteries, and wait until they have the final say.
When there is absolute strength, only one battle can determine the world.
Both sides of the argument are reasonable, and Emperor Shenwu knew it well, and Xia Yongkang's reinstatement also proved that Emperor Shenwu wanted to take action, otherwise there would be no need to use Xia Yongkang, even though there were rumors that he
The battle against Xia Yongkang laid the groundwork, but they were still defeated in the end. This defeat caused the Great Xia Dynasty to completely lose its ability to compete with the Yuan Dynasty and the Turks.
It turned out that the great Xia Dynasty was so vulnerable. The result of the incident was that Xia Yongkang retired into seclusion and the power of the left prime minister was transferred to the government and the opposition.
Now Xia Yongkang is back. After he came back, he found that the situation was different. Now there was peace in the court. But what he knew from the Jing'an Division was that it was not the case. If peace was negotiated again, the Great Xia Dynasty would be in trouble.
Sooner or later, your family fortune will be emptied out, so we won’t do anything until then.
With his hand, there is no chance of winning at all. It is better to take advantage of this good opportunity to make a move. At least it is a 50-50 odds situation. With his backhand, it should be a 40-60 odds. The chance of winning is still relatively high. In these troubled times, he blindly compromises and survives.
world, but this is not the attitude that a great country in China should have.
After the two of them finished speaking, there was silence in the court hall, and no one dared to speak.
After a while, Emperor Shenwu frowned: "Where are the others? Are they all mute? The imperial court raised you, are you just for free food? Sixth Department, are the people from the Sixth Department here?"
This question is of course nonsense. Didn't the Sixth Ministry come during the court time? The two prime ministers were standing in front of you obediently, and they were scolded by you. Now you ask if the Sixth Ministry has come, are you here to die?
The six ministers were all sweating profusely as they walked out, only to hear Fei Ming, the minister of household affairs, say: "I...I am here. I think what Prime Minister Zuo said is reasonable, and I second my opinion..."
Zhan Bibai, the Minister of the Ministry of War, followed up and said: "The Ministry of War currently has 30% of the food and salary allocated to the south of the Yangtze River. If we go to war, we still need to see the harvest of the autumn harvest in the south of the Yangtze River. Therefore, I... I think that the left minister... is right..."
"I agree with you. You know I agree with you. You might as well live in their house. They are all rubbish. They are all rubbish..." Emperor Shenwu cursed rarely. Even though all the officials looked at each other, they still had no idea why Emperor Shenwu was so angry today.
"Jiangnan Autumn Harvest, Jiangnan Autumn Harvest, today is the tenth day of May..."
