Seeing the expressions of Pang Ye and the others with some surprise, Emperor Yinglie quickly explained: "I was discussing this matter with An Shangshu just now, and the three beloved ministers have already arrived, so I specially asked An Shangshu to temporarily stay in the side hall on one side.
Hou."
An Yongchang nodded to the three of them, sat on the chair that Zhu Jing brought over, and then said: "Xiaguan was rude just now, and I ask the three pillars to forgive me. However, Xianguan's love for our emperor will never change."
Ke Zhao."
Sima Angelica waved her hand indifferently: "As important ministers of the imperial court, we should take state affairs as our top priority. Since Lord Shangshu has a different opinion, you might as well speak out and listen."
An Yongchang was obviously used to Sima Angelica's attitude towards him. After all, the two had been fighting for more than twenty years. It would be strange if Sima Angelica could give him a good look. Then he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I think
Unless it is a critical moment, Jingbei Hou's army must not be allowed to go south. There is one reason: Jingbei Hou's father is Tanhua Hao, one of the three outstanding talents of the year. Although he has died in battle and martyred his country, he was the number one scholar at that time.
and No. 2 are still there. The three of them have an irreversible relationship, and it can be said that they are like brothers. Thinking about how glorious the three talented men were at the beginning, but in the blink of an eye, the three of them became prisoners of the subordinates. The emperor may not understand the twists and turns here.
It's very clear, but the three adults all experienced it personally back then. Don't forget, Qin Shang's death was particularly weird. The three of them had a deep affection for Qin Shang, and you must still remember it deeply. Now they are making a comeback.
, no one can guarantee what the intentions are.
Second: After the Marquis of Jingbei regained the northwest, he actually refused to accept officials from the imperial court. Instead, he forged a letter of ten thousand words from the people and established officials without authorization. This was also the case when he first regained Hetao. I remember that the imperial advisor at that time
He was just asked to temporarily act as the prefect of Dingzhou. Then after he regained the Hetao, he did not ask our emperor to appoint officials. Instead, he created an established fact first, as if he regarded the Hetao as his own private territory. Such behavior is deplorable.
.
Third: Unauthorized collusion with the rebellious Tianwu Xinghe. Tianwu Xinghe and the Bliss Holy Sect came from the same Sun God Sect, and the two have a deep collusion. Although they have kept a low profile in recent years, our emperor has also been involved in the war with foreign races.
For the time being, I haven’t paid much attention to it. However, it is a fact that Tianwu Xinghe has ulterior motives. Jingbeihou’s Soul Eater should have greatly increased its power after merging Tianwu Xinghe’s intelligence network. However, the Ji Le rebels plotted a rebellion.
, Marquis Jingbei actually had no idea. Whether this was true ignorance or false ignorance, no one could tell.
Fourth: Unauthorized alliance with the Bloody Plateau. Qingning Road is the territory of the empire, and the Bloody people are also the people under the empire. I, His Majesty Qingfeng, pity the achievements of his ancestors and granted the Bloody Plateau the right to autonomy. However, he secretly formed an alliance with the empire's ministers.
, they actually carried out such a major event without telling our emperor. I don’t know what their intentions are. The empire is in turmoil now. If the Marquis of Jingbei is really loyal to the imperial court, how could he do such a thing to poach the empire?
?
The fifth one: militancy and ulterior motives. Since the Marquis of Jingbei set foot in the Hetao, he has begun to expand his army. Now the three roads in the Hetao have only 15 million people, and only three million young people. But how many troops does the Marquis of Jingbei have?
? Nearly 400,000! Including the troops left behind on the Bloody Plateau, it has now far exceeded any of the three major families. And every time the Marquis of Jingbei wrote a letter, he cried out to our emperor for poverty, either hoping that the imperial court would reduce taxes, or that
I hope to get all kinds of assistance from the court. However, he is in Hetao and is expanding his army wantonly. Don't forget, the Marquis of Jingbei is also the son-in-law of King Weiyuan."
At the beginning, both Emperor Yinglie and Pang Ye had great doubts about An Yongchang. But after hearing what he said in detail, everyone frowned. What An Yongchang said was not unreasonable.
, but it is all based on facts, making it difficult for people to overthrow him.
After a long time, Pang Ye finally opened his mouth and said: "The Marquis of Jingbei is a very affectionate person, and he is also free and easy. Therefore, when doing these things, it is inevitable that there is some lack of consideration. But looking at what the Marquis of Jingbei does,
There is no doubt that he is a loyal minister."
An Yongchang curled his lips and said unceremoniously: "Master, please don't forget that Emperor Taizu was also a loyal minister before he became emperor."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent for a while. The reason why Emperor Taizu was able to quickly conquer the world back then was inseparable from the trust of the last emperor in him. And now Haotian, could it be that Emperor Taizu was then?
A copy of?
After a long while, Tie Zhen said carefully: "Although King Weiyuan's military strength is at the bottom of the Three Feudations, he still has an army of 250,000. Moreover, Huai River is the grain-producing land second only to Dahu Road. Now it is
In troubled times, if the two cooperate, they should not be underestimated."
There was another moment of silence, and everyone was thinking about this issue. Zhang Cangxiong did not have a legitimate son, and he always loved Zhang Yuewan. And among the three major aristocratic families, the Zhang family was the weakest. Apart from Zhang Cangxiong and his daughter, the Zhang family was the weakest.
There is only one deputy commander of the Navy, Zhang Cangzong, who can be regarded as a general. And Zhang Jishi has little talent and great ambition. Even if the Zhang family participates in the overall situation of competing for the Central Plains, I am afraid they are just helping others to make wedding dresses. In this case,
Who knows if Zhang Cangxiong will cooperate with his son-in-law? And if they really join forces, then Jingbei Hou will have excellent generals, elite soldiers and invincible bloody plateau cavalry, and Zhang Cangxiong will have abundant food resources and is second only to
The consequences of the powerful navy of the Imperial Dragon Legion are really unimaginable.
Emperor Yinglie let out a long sigh and broke the silence: "Then in your opinion, what should I do?"
An Yongchang said with a gloomy face: "In my opinion, the best way is to limit Jingbei Hou's power to the northwest inland. As long as he cannot join forces with King Weiyuan, he will not pose a fatal threat to the empire.
If the Marquis of Jingbei wants to go south, they must either go from the Bloody Plateau to the west, the Yinfeng Mountains due south, or go south along the river from the east. The Bloody Plateau to the west has been blocked by the Song family. If they pass through the South Yunnan Road,
Then it will go in a big circle. I believe that the Marquis of Jingbei would not choose this place unless he had other plans. The Yinfeng Mountains in the middle are heavily guarded by the Song and Li families, and there are 50,000 dragons on our side on the river in the east.
The legion and the 30,000 navy troops on the Qinchuan Road. Under this situation, Jingbeihou is simply unable to join forces with King Weiyuan in the southeast."
Tie Zhen frowned: "It's March now, spring is already blooming in the south, and the war in the southeast is probably not far away. If we only rely on our military strength, we can't maintain the integrity of the defense line at all, so what should we do?
Is it good?"
An Yongchang smiled slightly: "Haven't the Eastern Army and the Northern Army been rebuilt for two years? When the country is in crisis, how can we miss their traces? We can transfer all these two armies to the east of Huai River, and we will be happy.
Although the thieves are powerful, they have a short time to form an army and their combat effectiveness should be limited. Putting them here can be used for training. We can even move them a little further north, or place them within the Yuzhou Road area to attack those north of the river.
The three-nation coalition forces in the Northeast form a deterrent."
Pang Ye and others were shocked when they heard this. An Yongchang had been an official in the court for more than thirty years and became the late emperor's confidant more than twenty years ago. However, although the late emperor was stupid and could even misappropriate military pay, he had no control over military power.
The guards have always been very strict. Therefore, in the past twenty years, although An Yongchang has been proud of his success in the court, he has never had a direct army in his hands. He finally took advantage of the defeat of the Northern Expeditionary Army to seize part of the military power. In these troubled times, who can compare with him?
They all understand the principle that having soldiers means power, so the Northern Army is a special treasure to him. He never allows anyone to interfere. I didn't expect that he would be so generous today.
Facing the surprise of several people, An Yongchang had already understood. He just smiled lightly: "As an important minister of the imperial court, An shares weal and woe with you. Now that the country is in danger, how can we only care about personal gains and losses?"
As soon as these words came out, Pang Ye and others suddenly realized that although An Yongchang was treacherous, cunning and greedy, all his wealth and life were closely linked to Qingfeng. He had been causing trouble to the court for many years, no matter where he fell.
Qingfeng will definitely die in the hands of any force, not to mention the aliens he hates and hates him, so now he can only follow Qingfeng's ship closely. As long as this ship does not sink, his right
Only then can his life be saved.
At this moment, the emperor's uncle Liu Nanshu hurriedly walked into the hall with an extremely solemn expression. Emperor Yinglie and others were shocked. Liu Nanshu was the top person in charge of the Qingfeng Intelligence System and had always been calm and calm. He
Now that he came in without warning with such a hurried look, it was obvious that something big had happened.
Emperor Yinglie stood up and asked first: "Uncle, what happened?"
Liu Nanshu handed over the urgent information that had just been decrypted and said with an ugly face: "Han Fu was assassinated, and nearly half of the Suzaku Army was lost. The Holy Sect of Paradise has gained a foothold on Jiangnan Road."
There is already a bit of warmth on Jiangnan Road in mid-March. Although spring came late this year, Jiangnan, which is located in the south, has already felt a bit of spring. As the commander of the Suzaku Legion, Split Cloud Marquis Han Fu
He also gradually became busy. To the north of the river, Zhu Zhao, known as the leader of the Four Generals of Paradise, was already gathering troops, and the Japanese on the South China Sea were also ready to make a move. He only had one hundred thousand soldiers of the Suzaku Legion in his hands and less than one hundred thousand soldiers.
The local garrison on Jiangnan Road was weak. Although Zhang Cangxiong's Yellow Turban Army was just across the river in Shouzhou, Huai River, who knew what Zhang Cangxiong had in mind.
As a soldier who has been on the battlefield for thirty years, Han Fu has already put life and death aside, and he has not cared about personal honor or disgrace. The only thing he wants to do now is to defend Jiangnan and prevent the Paradise Saint from letting go.
The teacher took advantage of the loophole. Fortunately, the main naval force of the Eastern Japanese Dynasty was still blocked at the mouth of the river, otherwise Han Fu would have had even more headaches.
Just when Han Fu was standing on the edge of the river, looking at the mountains and rivers opposite and contemplating his next move, a flash of sword light suddenly emerged from the water. Before Han Fu and his soldiers could react, that flash of sword light suddenly appeared from the water.
The sword light had already pierced Han Fu's chest. The owner of the sword light flicked out a firework at the same time and disappeared without a trace. Han Fu's pupils widened in an instant, because
Hundreds of large ships suddenly appeared on the originally empty and calm river. With the flags fluttering, you could faintly see the two big characters on them - Bliss.
