Chapter 145: Rushing to the shelves, the sudden imperial edict
After a long time, the two came out.
Li Xiuzhu doesn't have many emotions of fear. He is a first-class expert. He is able to see through ninety-five people in advance.
And this is a royal palace. It can be mentioned again that 99% of people have insight.
Although I don’t know if there is a peerless master next to Li Kuo, Wang Defa is only a second-rate player on the surface.
Also, there are so many Sunflower Patriarchs, how can one of them die in this palace?
After having dinner with Li Biyao, Li Xiuzhu left the palace while Li Biyao was reluctant to leave.
I didn't see Li Xiuning and her sisters this time, and I don't know if they were eating or taking a lunch break, but it would have been better not to see each other, otherwise there would be no world between the two of them.
Thinking like this, Li Xiuzhu suddenly had a strange thought. Isn't he causing trouble in the palace?
Li Xiuzhu's carriage did not go back, but turned around to go to Su Chengcheng's place.
But Li Xiuzhu didn't expect that the two of them were not there. However, after thinking about it, Li Xiuzhu thought that maybe they were. He naturally knew about Su Chengcheng's confinement, and it was possible that he couldn't see him.
At the same time, just as Li Xiuzhu left the palace, a horse ran into Shangjing City.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, eight hundred miles to expedite, eight hundred miles to expedite..."
Passers-by hurriedly dodged the galloping knight and started talking among themselves until the horse was far away.
You don't need to think about it to know that this is from the North. They are just 800 miles away. Could it be that the battle is not going well?
It's no wonder they thought so, the knight's face looked anxious just now.
After so many years in Shangjing City, who hasn’t seen two emergency reports?
So anyone with some knowledge will realize that something is wrong.
But they are not worried at all. If they lose, they will lose. It is impossible to break into the upper capital anyway.
It's none of their business, just hang it up high, this is the mentality of the people in the capital city.
As for ordinary people, it is best if they have enough to eat and drink.
They rushed eight hundred miles and arrived at the palace quickly. Li Kuo heard the sound and looked at the door with a serious face.
Wang Defa was already guarding the door, waiting for people to come in.
As soon as the messenger soldiers entered, they immediately shouted.
"Your Majesty, the border crossing is eight hundred miles away and is urgent."
The messenger's voice was hoarse and his lips were chapped, which showed the level of urgency.
Wang Defa heard the sound and stepped forward to take the communication tube, quickly poured out the message and respectfully presented it to Li Kuo.
Li Kuo picked up the message and looked at it, and suddenly his body swayed.
On the first day of September in the Jiashen year, the Silla army and the spies and gentry from Jiayuguan cooperated with each other and opened the gates of Jiayuguan and Juyongguan.
The minister Luo Shicheng urgently sent troops to counterattack, and only after tens of thousands of casualties were killed did the gate of Jiayuguan be closed again.
At that time, Juyong Pass, which was at odds with Jiayuguan Pass, fell and 30,000 soldiers were captured and killed.
Jiayuguan was surrounded by 50,000 Silla soldiers who cut off the food route and surrounded the pass.
The soldiers at Panshan Pass in the rear cannot move any further. I sincerely request your Majesty to send more troops to support Jiayuguan.
Is this a battle report? This is a funeral report.
"What the hell is Luo Shicheng doing? He can actually be robbed by spies."
"Is he an old fool?"
Luo Shicheng said that he was also wronged. He had already attached great importance to defending the city wall, with no less than 5,000 people defending the city wall every day, with an average of one person every two meters.
Among them, there were an additional 1,000 people taking turns defending in the north direction.
But who would have thought that a group of 3,000 gentry in the city would rebel.
The sudden attack of 3,000 people on the city gate from the inside was overwhelming, not to mention the fact that there were 50,000 soldiers watching eagerly outside.
If it weren't for Luo Shicheng's quick reaction, Jiayuguan Pass would have already fallen into Silla's hands.
Although Li Kuo was very angry, was this the time to be angry? Additional troops were necessary, but who to send was a question. If he sent another loser, wouldn't the great Zhou Dynasty be ruined?
Fortunately, the prince-in-law has taken care of the logistical issues...
Prince Consort? Li Xiuzhu!
Li Kuo's eyes lit up. He recognized Li Xiuzhu's talent. Although Li Xiuzhu said that he was an armchair strategist, which famous historical general was not an armchair strategist in the first place?
Did I fight before Wolong came out of the mountain?
Everyone has a first time, right?
"Prepare the decree!"
"promise!"
When Wang Defa was ready, Li Kuo then spoke: "Today, the war in the north has changed. I have appointed the right minister of the Ministry of Industry as the general of hussars. He will lead an army of 50,000 and hold the emperor's festival ax to lead the northern expedition."
Wang De felt numb, this...
"Your Majesty, this acceptance of fate must be discussed in court, right?"
Li Kuo's eyes suddenly became empty.
"Do you think I have time to discuss it now?"
"And if we discuss it, can those old guys agree immediately?"
"The most important thing is if I listen to them and send someone who doesn't like what I want, will I be able to rest assured?"
"Go and prepare the edict and declare it."
Wang Defa was even more embarrassed after hearing this.
"But to remove this soldier, you have to go through the Zhongshu Province, and then a few adults will also have to argue."
"So this person came from my personal bodyguard, the Sixteenth Guards of Kyoto."
After speaking, Li Kuo waved his hand without explaining any more.
"This, okay!"
"Go and issue the decree. This is the Tiger Talisman for the Troops of the Sixteenth Guards of Kyoto."
"After issuing the decree, go and invite the three princes to come and discuss the affairs."
Wang Defa was stunned again. He had already sent troops, so why did he come to discuss politics?
Well, how could he possibly understand the saint's thoughts?
Wang Defa didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he left and turned around to issue the decree.
At this time, Li Xiuzhu didn't know that a deceptive imperial edict was coming towards him.
Not long after Li Xiuzhu arrived home, Wang Defa came with the imperial edict.
Li Xiuzhu was startled when he saw Wang Defa.
"I just met him, why are you here again, and the one in his hand is an imperial edict?"
"Yes, it must be an imperial decree to reward the house. After all, it is the house of the former imperial master. It is normal for such a big house to issue an imperial decree to show the emperor's great favor."
Fu Yuehua, who also came to receive the order, was startled. The house of the former Grand Master? Grand Master Pang?
Why would His Majesty suddenly reward Xiuzhu with such a big house?
"Eunuch Wang, haven't we just separated? Why did you come to your house to deliver the order? Why didn't you just give it to me earlier?"
When Wang Defa heard this, he smiled and said, "Isn't this something that hasn't happened before? The Eight Hundred Mile Express has just arrived in Beijing. Your Majesty feels that only Mr. Li can do this, so he asked your servant to issue an edict to you."
"800 miles for expedited service? What does it have to do with me?"
For a time, Li Xiuzhu felt an ominous premonition growing stronger and stronger.
"Master Li accepts the order!"
"Your Majesty Li Xiuzhu accepts the order!"
"Haotian has a clear destiny, and the system is upright. Today, the Northern Expedition has been frustrated, and the general is trapped in Jiayuguan. The crisis of the family and the country is imminent. I remember that I love you for your unparalleled talent, so I specially named you a general of hussars and received the emperor's festival yue.
Can fight independently."
Li Xiuzhu was paralyzed, what the hell is this? He actually sent himself to fight, didn't he say that? He can't do this.
Doesn’t your majesty have ears?
"Master Li, accept the order!"
Li Xiuzhu did not answer, but raised his hands and said: "Eunuch, we want to see your Majesty."
"I know how much I am worth, but I am really not good at leading troops in war."
