Chapter 283: His Majesty's will, secretly capture King Ning
"General."
"Here comes a letter from Mr. Bai."
Wei Feng took the messenger and entered Fang Jue's camp after dark.
The content of the letter is simple, that is, they intercepted King Ning Changshi and successfully intercepted part of King Wei's private army. Ganzhou also began to cooperate to stop the war horses.
Prince Ning's plan in Gyeonggi was in vain.
"We can arrive in Ningzhou tomorrow." Everyone was looking forward to it.
"Your Majesty's decree has not come yet?" Fang Jue asked Wei Feng.
Wei Feng shook his head: "I have also sent people back. If Your Majesty wants us to attack Prince Ning, the messenger should have arrived."
"Is it possible that something happened to the messenger sent by His Majesty?"
"Like Bai Qing intercepting Prince Ning's messenger?"
"Impossible," Fang Jue said, "Prince Ning doesn't know that I want to go to Ningzhou."
Cheng Jie: "What if Xi Chu secretly helps?"
"We have taken away the Yu Lin Army from Tuzhou. Xi Chu should be keeping an eye on us. If Xi Chu is instigating King Ning behind him, then King Ning may know that we have already taken over."
Cheng Jie's words reminded everyone, and Fang Jue also became serious.
"When we get up early tomorrow morning and camp, we haven't seen His Majesty's messenger yet, so we will go straight to Ningzhou."
Fang Jue said: "The old Pavilion Master's messengers have arrived. Mo Yuan has disappeared for many days. He should have taken people to Ningzhou. He is almost here now. We should be able to meet in Ningzhou tomorrow."
Lin Beidao: "If we can see Commander Mo, we will be justified. He must have His Majesty's imperial edict or military order in his hand, and he can attack King Ning reasonably and legally."
"Starting from tomorrow, it will all be King Ning's territory. When our army enters Ningzhou, he will definitely get the news in advance. We can't give him too much time to react."
Fang Jueleng said: "Tomorrow, each will send a firearms battalion of 100 households, together with the Yulin Army, to clean up all the eyes and ears in the front, and try to give King Ning no time to react."
A good night's sleep to recharge your batteries.
Early in the morning, the wind and snow stopped, and a figure came galloping from the south.
Sitting on a war horse, carrying an order flag and wearing the official uniform of the Hanging Sword Division.
"It's the messenger." Fang Jue, who was about to order an urgent march, saw clearly that the person coming was an official from the Xuanjian Division in the capital.
He met this person when he went to Xuanjian Division to deliver dumplings to Ye Hongyi.
"General!" Xuanjian Si Baihu was brought over and said, "Your Majesty has a decree. Please see it personally, General."
Fang Jue took the secret edict, opened it and saw that it was all cipher text.
Fortunately, he had been marching for many days and had translated the cipher text himself. As long as he had a matching cipher text record, he could translate it himself.
As for common expressions, Fang Jue already knows how to translate them, so he can see the content at a glance.
"Secretly capture King Ning and suppress Ningzhou."
"General, what does Your Majesty say? Can we see it?" Lin Bei came over and asked.
It was a secret order, they didn't dare to peek, they could only ask if the content was confidential.
Fang Jue handed them the secret edict, which was encrypted to prevent it from being intercepted by people on the way, so there was no need to keep it secret from them.
"Secret capture?" Everyone grasped the key point.
"It seems that Your Majesty does not want Prince Ning to rebel. Also, if he rebels, our reputation in Daxia will be damaged." Wei Feng nodded, understanding what His Majesty meant.
The Xuanjian Division has already collected all the evidence of Prince Ning's rebellion. There is no need to wait for him to raise an army, they can capture it now.
It is best to make a smooth transition and capture Prince Ning secretly without letting anyone from anywhere in Ningzhou notice. By the time they react, everything will have settled.
"How can we secretly capture him when we go to Ningzhou with such great momentum?" Lin Bei smiled bitterly.
"Yes, if the army enters Ningzhou, King Ning will rebel once he finds out!" Wei Feng also knew that this matter was a bit difficult.
Cheng Jie: "But if the army doesn't enter Ningzhou, we are no match for King Ning. Not to mention that the entire Ningzhou camp is under King Ning's control. But Prince Ning's palace has 300 soldiers. How can we capture him without making a fuss?"
?”
"His Majesty also dispatched the Black Dragon Cavalry. Once King Ning discovers the Black Dragon Cavalry, he will immediately raise troops."
Listening to the embarrassing words spoken by everyone, Fang Jue said calmly:
"The will is the will, it cannot be discounted, you have to find a way."
Just complaining, no one knows, solving the problem is the right thing to do.
Your Majesty wants to secretly capture Prince Ning. This is of course not necessary, it is just the first priority.
If that doesn't work, the Black Dragon Riders and Fang Juebu can jointly suppress all enemies in Ningzhou.
However, it would cause too much trouble, and no one would be able to laugh at Beiliang and Luoyang.
"How many Black Dragon Riders did your Majesty send to Ningzhou?" Fang Jue asked the Xuanjian Si Baihu.
The latter replied: "Back to the general, Mo Yuan will lead a thousand black dragon riders. They are expected to arrive tomorrow night."
"Did the Black Dragon Riders take the official road or the small road?" Fang Jue asked again.
"Official way."
"What? Mo Yuan is in the official position, so how can he be secretive and capture people secretly?" Lin Bei rolled his eyes.
Fang Jue nodded: "It can only mean that the mission of the Black Dragon Riders is different from ours. His Majesty hopes that I can secretly capture Prince Ning, and does not make this request to Commander Mo."
Mo Yuan is a military commander. Although his strength is amazing, he is naturally not good at doing this kind of detailed work.
Letting Mo Yuan go was just for the purpose of suppressing the situation and leading the Black Dragon Riders to sweep through Ningzhou.
Mo Yuan is the alternative, the last resort.
His Majesty wanted to let Fang Jue try to see if he could quietly quell the rebellion of Prince Ning.
"Your Majesty really believes in the general..." Wei Feng chuckled. He couldn't think of any other way to secretly capture Prince Ning.
It is not difficult to capture King Ning. The difficulty lies in capturing him before he raises his troops.
Moreover, his subordinates must not notice it, otherwise King Ning's people will raise an army, and the impact of this incident will be the same.
There is already a Yue Pingchuan. If there is another one this year, then the reputation of the emperor will be lost.
There will be many weird legends left in later generations, saying that the emperor scolded the military attachés harshly, which led to such a result... Anyway, he had to take the blame.
In order not to take the blame, the emperor wanted to capture Prince Ning secretly, but in Ningzhou, Emperor Zun Pavilion might not be able to do such a thing.
Not to mention the Xuanjian Division, since King Ning wanted to raise an army, he must have targeted the Xuanjian Division in Ningzhou, and maybe even someone in the Ningzhou Xuanjian Division has been bribed.
"Send the order, the army will suspend its operations." Fang Jue said.
Large troops cannot enter Ningzhou.
As for Bai Qing, he couldn't hide it for long, so he only had a chance for a day or two.
Prince Ning's palace has a long history. If he doesn't return to Ningzhou for too long, Prince Ning will also become suspicious.
There is not enough time, and there is only one chance for this kind of action.
The handsome tent was set up again.
After everyone checked in, Fang Jue hung the map behind the main case and pointed to Ningzhou marked on the map.
"Dian Yi, do you have a map of Ningzhou?" Fang Jue asked.
Dian Yiyi: "I sent a message to my people in Ningzhou a few days ago, and the topographic map of Ningzhou came into my hands last night."
After saying that, he handed over a more accurate map.
After a few people checked it for a long time, Fang Jue pointed keenly at Ningzhou City on the map.
"Prince Ning's Mansion is located in the center of Ningzhou City. Prince Ning has three hundred soldiers, and the Ningzhou Battalion may also be dispatched by him to protect himself."
"In the past few days, there have been reports from the Xuanjian Division that Prince Ning has not left his residence. He is very cautious for fear of being assassinated by the Xuanjian Division, and the number of guards around him has increased."
"If you want to capture or assassinate him, you have to get close. We can't get close."
Some people wondered: "How about tunneling?"
Lin Bei said with a smile: "When you open the tunnel, King Ning will attack Western Chu."
"...I'm just saying..." The person who made the suggestion smiled awkwardly.
Wei Feng said: "Unless the heavenly soldiers descend from heaven, it will be too difficult."
"Um?"
Cheng Jie suddenly thought: "General, isn't it possible for the firearms battalion to fly in the Bailong Snow Mountain?"
"Yes!" Everyone suddenly imagined the scene of thousands of bamboo kites flying into Prince Ning's mansion.
But he got a look from Fang Jue: "There is no high ground near Prince Ning's Mansion, how can you glide?"
Bamboo kites can only glide. Taking off from the ground is a delusion, unless...
"Um?"
Fang Jue looked at Cheng Jie, who felt the blazing gaze and hesitated: "General, is the general wrong?"
"No, you reminded me."
Fang Jue narrowed his eyes and asked Dianyi on the side: "Are all the things you brought out from Fangjiazhuang still there when we went on the expedition?"
"They are all here. They are all young master's treasures. I haven't lost any of them." Dianyi said proudly.
"Okay, then let's play with the magic weapon descending from the sky." Fang Jue hummed softly, with a face full of teasing. He suddenly looked forward to it, and Prince Ning showed a shocked expression that he had never seen in the world.
But then I thought about it, although this idea is wonderful, there are too few people who can implement it.
Only Dianyi and a few masters from Emperor Zun in the personal guard camp had such training. This chapter has been completed!
