Nian Xu's greatest wish is to pull up this weak Zhou.
To this end, he worked hard.
But time and destiny also dictated that his ambitions in the court were met with obstacles everywhere in the world, causing the court to become unbalanced.
Just when Peng Jing accidentally revealed the aura of a powerful official, Nian Xu made up his mind to invite Sun Shi out.
This time, even if he falls out with Peng Jing and others, he will carry out the New Deal thoroughly.
He had already typed up the handwritten letter for Sun Shi, and was waiting to write it after returning from the court meeting, and then have someone send it to him.
But at this moment, all the manuscripts disappeared in my mind.
"What did you say?"
Peng Jing hissed: "How could King Qin send his army south? Doesn't he ignore Guanzhong and not want to kill Li Mi and his son?"
When a person's heart is dirty, he will feel that the whole world is dirty.
When a person puts selfishness first, he will feel that everyone else does the same.
This is called using oneself to save others.
In Peng Jing's opinion, if it were him, he would definitely abandon Nanzhou and return to Guanzhong.
Let’s stabilize the fundamentals first and then talk about it.
If you want to talk about selfishness, just look at what the founding emperors of the Zhou Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty did. Isn’t that exactly what they did?
Therefore, when he heard that King Qin's army was marching south, the feeling of inner collapse made Peng Jing lose his composure.
The messenger lowered his head and said, "The King of Qin only gave us three days, saying that the army will move south in three days."
Han Bi is off duty.
He looked solemn and said: "The situation for King Qin to take control of Chang'an has been decided, and these people are true to their word. Since he said he would go south to attack the Zhou Dynasty, then at this moment, the border area has already been lost. Your Majesty, make plans early!"
Nian Xu felt his head buzzing and an idea was spinning.
"He wants to destroy the country!"
Nian Xu waved his hands, "He is going to destroy the country!"
The ministers looked at the crazy emperor with confusion in their hearts.
Peng Jing said: "Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to deal with it!"
Han Bi glanced at him and said, "Old dog, what's your idea at the moment?"
Peng Jing had been doing the same thing before, but now he threw the crisis to the emperor.
"defense!"
Peng Jing sneered.
That's a matter for warriors. Does it have anything to do with me?
"Shameless old dog!" Han Bi cursed with these words back and forth, "I see that the King of Qin is not a tyrannical person. Every time he sends out troops, he must be famous. When he sends troops to attack Northern Liao, it is a feud of the Tang Dynasty. If he sends troops, then
It’s a family feud. There must be a reason why he sent troops to attack Zhou Dynasty. If we don’t understand this, how can we know where the morale of the Northern Xinjiang army comes from?”
Han Bi stared at the messenger and said, "Say!"
The envoy bowed his head and said, "The King of Qin will send troops as soon as he opens his mouth..."
"shut up!"
Han Bi walked up to the golden melon warrior, grabbed the golden melon, danced it, and cursed: "It's hollow!"
"Your Majesty!" Peng Jing shouted: "Your Majesty, be careful!"
Little Nima!
Han Bi walked up to the envoy carrying the golden melon and said, "Take three breaths and tell me the reason why King Qin sent troops, otherwise I will kill you on the spot!"
The golden melon was raised, and the envoy looked up at Peng Jing in panic.
But Peng Jing was looking at the emperor.
emperor……
The envoy took a look and found that the emperor looked cold.
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
The pumpkin falls.
The messenger screamed: "It is Prime Minister Fang who has angered King Qin!"
The golden melon stopped on top of the messenger's head, and the strong wind blew his beard and hair flying.
The messenger collapsed on the ground.
Immediately, he told the reason why.
"... When Prime Minister Fang saw that King Qin had packed his bags, he started to speak harshly..."
"What did he say?"
Han Bi shouted.
"Prime Minister Fang said that His Highness's delay in leading the army has surprised everyone in the Zhou Dynasty. His Majesty sent me here because he wanted to ask when His Highness will return."
When the King of Qin returns is none of your business.
Do you really want to question him?
You are questioning a famous commander who just killed Shi Zhongtang, who frightened the great Zhou Dynasty.
Surprised!
I'm so surprised!
"Bitch bitch slave!"
Nian Xu finally lost his so-called gentleness and cursed loudly.
Then, years of cultivation made him take a deep breath and suppress the anger in his chest.
"Go on!"
The messenger smashed the jar and ignored Peng Jing's glance, "Prime Minister Fang then explained in every possible way..."
"You must be begging!" Han Bi sneered.
The messenger did not refute.
This idiot!
For the sake of selfishness, he behaves uglyly.
Nian Xu only needs to think about it to know Fang Chong's motive...it is nothing more than to create a fearless image of himself as powerful and unyielding.
And all this is to gain the upper hand in the subsequent selection of the first assistant.
What if I, the chief assistant, can make a decision with just one word?
Then all this will definitely not happen.
At this moment, Nian Xu was blaming his ancestors.
Sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats seemed to have stabilized the country, but it also dug a huge hole for future emperors.
A big hole that cannot be filled no matter how hard it is filled.
"Your Majesty, a secret message from the Love Department!"
Nian Ru is here.
"Say it!"
Nian Xu said calmly.
"After Prime Minister Fang left, the Northern Xinjiang Army began to gather, and the scouts sent out towards the Great Zhou Dynasty. Secret spies warned, be careful of King Qin going south!"
"It has gone south." Han Bi said coldly.
Nian Xu waved his hands and said tiredly, "I understand."
Han Bi said: "Your Majesty, the top priority is to send reinforcements."
Nian Xuqiang braced himself and said, "Han Qing, tell me."
Han Bi was a semi-warrior here, and he did his best to get the map.
"Your Majesty, Huo City will definitely fall at this moment..."
"etc!"
Peng Jing said: "It only took a few days before the Northern Xinjiang Army was dispatched. Although Huo City is not a majestic city, it is considered strong. How could it fall in a few days?"
Han Bi did not look at him and continued: "Then Yezhou will follow. Yezhou's guard Chen Mai is quite capable, so I am not very worried."
"Then what are you worried about?" Nian Xu asked.
"I am worried that Deng Cheng, the governor of the state, will be constrained!"
"Why?"
This is what an old minister asked.
"It has long been customary for civil servants to suppress military men." Han Bi looked at the old minister, "When I was in school, there was a timid classmate in the school. Those students just started to test it out. When they saw that he was timid, they bullied him. From insults to beatings.
... Unscrupulous. The students who tried to dissuade him at first later joined in and beat him even harder. This is all human nature.
Over the past hundreds of years, the civil servants of the Great Zhou Dynasty have long been accustomed to despising warriors. Just like those students. Anyone who does not suppress warriors will be looked down upon."
The old minister was stunned and asked casually: "Is the student who was bullied okay now?"
"Fortunately, now I am the Privy Envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
Everyone: "..."
Nian Xu frowned, "Deng Cheng..."
Deng Cheng was a member of the conservatives. Peng Jing said: "Your Majesty, Han Bi is just conjecture."
"Assemble the army!"
Nian Xu looked at the situation in the court that seemed to be stirring up trouble again, and decisively said, "What should we do next? Han Qing!"
Han Bi put aside these things and said: "Yezhou must not be lost, otherwise the Northern Xinjiang army will penetrate deep into the hinterland of the Zhou Dynasty. Jinzhou is on its left, Xinzhou is on its right, and before Bianjing, there is only Yongzhou.
The risk is too great. I think we should reinforce Yezhou. I ordered the three states to repair the city walls and replenish the supplies of food, grass and weapons. Bianjing will immediately send troops to reinforce..."
"Just do it one by one!" Nian Xu didn't give the opposition a chance to interrupt, "What else is there?"
"I am confused at the moment." Han Bi smiled bitterly, "Thousands of things, but in fact they are all in one word: heart!"
He looked at Nian Xu, "The morale of the military, the hearts of the people, and the heart of the temple. Only when the three are united can we be invincible. Your Majesty, are you ready for a war?"
"This is the battle that will determine the fate of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If it is passed, the Great Zhou Dynasty will usher in the light. If it cannot be passed... you and I, the monarchs and ministers, will become prisoners, dancing for the King of Qin in Chang'an."
Let the nobles among the captives dance for fun, which was a reserved program of the Tang Dynasty.
Everyone's hearts trembled just thinking about it.
Nian Xu stood up and said, "I will be with the country! Life and death are one!"
Han Bi saluted, "My lord, I will do my best!"
Nian Xu nodded, "This battle will be led by Han Qing."
"Your Majesty!" Someone wanted to object, but Nian Xu said coldly: "Have you ever commanded an army? Have you ever fought in a fight?"
The official lowered his head and said, "No!"
"Then why did you jump out?" Nian Xu yelled, "If you can't do things well and do bad things, I just want you to wait!"
Peng Jing lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the Wat Ban, his eyes gloomy.
The emperor is hunting cattle across the mountain!
This idiot Fang Chong, in order to compete with me for the position of chief assistant, turned out to be so powerful that he lost his mind.
There are also undercurrents surging within the conservatives, and the biggest one is the dispute between the first and second auxiliaries.
The emperor's attitude gradually changed from ambiguous to clear. Does he want to bring up the New Deal faction to suppress us?
Peng Jing looked up at the emperor and sneered in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the Northern Xinjiang Army has approximately 70,000 to 80,000 troops in Southern Xinjiang, but there will definitely be reinforcements in the future."
"Did he ignore the old places of Guanzhong and Northern Liao?" Nian Xu asked.
Han Bi said: "Northern Xinjiang is the foundation of King Qin. He has high prestige in Northern Xinjiang and can gather strong men with just one call. I assert that at this moment, people from Northern Xinjiang are constantly sending troops to Guanzhong and to Southern Xinjiang. And food and grass.”
"In this case, this battle will be difficult." Nian Xu sighed.
"I have an army of three hundred thousand in the Great Zhou Dynasty!" Han Bi raised his voice when he said three hundred thousand. As expected, Nian Xu's spirit perked up.
"Our army uses Yezhou as a protrusion to withstand the pace of the Northern Xinjiang Army moving south. This will strengthen the city defense of Jinzhou and other three states, as well as the defense before Bianjing..."
"Wait!" Nian Xu stopped him, "What Han Qing means, Yezhou won't be able to hold it in the end?"
Han Bi nodded with difficulty, "The Northern Xinjiang Army is an army of tigers and wolves, and King Qin himself is one of the most famous generals in the world. Under his command, I don't think Yezhou can be defended for a long time. Everything I said at this moment is based on Above and beyond my understanding of Yecheng guard Chen Mai."
Nian Xu was moved and said, "Here comes someone!"
"Here!" the attendant came out.
Nian Xu said: "Immediately send someone to Yezhou to warn Deng Cheng not to interfere in the fighting."
"Your Majesty, Deng Cheng also spent time in the Military Academy!"
Someone said unwillingly.
"Read your mother!"
Han Bi looked livid and cursed: "Do you think you will be a famous general after reading a few volumes of military books? That's what Fang Chong, an old dog, thought, but he was defeated by the Southern Xinjiang army left behind by Ashina Songshi. idiot!"
The man's face was red and his ears were red, and he was unwilling to give in.
Han Bi said to Nian Xu: "Your Majesty, hurry up!"
"Go quickly!"
Nian Xu urged.
Han Bi felt relieved, "Then we need to open the storehouses, gather food and supplies, and quickly ship them to various places. In addition, we must assemble the army to reorganize and drill strictly in preparation for the coming enemy!"
When he saluted and raised his head, his eyes were filled with vicissitudes of life.
