Chapter 84: Wen Chen? No, he can fight better than Wu Chen!
Chapter 84 of Emperor Taizong’s Growth Plan: Civil servants? No, they can beat the military ministers!
On the Dragon Boat Palace, Xiao Chengping withdrew all the waiters, leaving only Feng Bao and Yu Huatian waiting in front of him.
Feng Bao carefully spread the map in front of Xiao Cheng, then pointed at the map and bowed:
"Your Majesty, the Yuanling Mansion where the emperor stayed yesterday is right here."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he looked where Feng Bao pointed, his eyes moved, and he frowned:
“过了沅陵府,之后就是武陵府了?”
冯保闻言,连忙回道:
"Yes, it will take about two days to reach Taoyuan County under the control of Wuling Prefecture."
Xiao Cheng's brows tightened, he tapped his knuckles on the imperial case, and said with narrowed eyes:
"No matter how stupid the assassins are, they can't wait until I arrive at Wuling Mansion before taking action!"
From Wuling Prefecture to the later Jiangzhou County, it is the territory that the Yun Kingdom has just captured. There are elites from the Yun Kingdom staying in all the prefectures and counties. There are also elite soldiers and horses sent by Jiangzhou County to pick up the troops, and they are also in Wuling.
The government is ready to pick you up.
Once the honor guard fleet arrives at Wuling Mansion, with more than ten thousand forbidden troops on its side, those assassins will not have such ability and courage!
想到这里,萧承声音更冷,道:
"That is to say, within two days, those people will definitely take action!"
一旁的雨化田闻言,连忙出声道:
"Yesterday when they stopped at Yuanling Mansion, Gongsun Ying wanted to leave the ceremonial team many times... But please rest assured, Your Majesty, the servant has been following her personally, keeping a close eye on her and not letting her have the opportunity to contact any outsiders. Even if she had the intention
There is no chance of contacting assassins outside and passing on information!"
Gongsun Qing, the "Gongsun Ying" now on the dragon boat, actually wanted to take the opportunity to escape.
But unfortunately, in the eyes of Xiao Cheng and Yu Huatian, her actions were more like trying to contact the assassins outside.
萧承闻言,微微点头,沉声道:
"In short, I'm keeping an eye on this 'Gongsun Ying'!"
"yes."
At this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of slightly hasty footsteps outside the hall.
"Report!"
The Imperial Guards General quickly walked into the palace, bowed down and prostrated, and reported back:
"Your Majesty, under the rule of Yuanling Mansion, the county lieutenant of Luohe County is reporting urgently! Several groups of remnants of the Xia Kingdom's soldiers and horses fled into Yuanling Mansion last night and looted everywhere. The county lieutenant has mobilized troops and horses to encircle and suppress him. He is frightened and ordered.
Someone comes and reports!"
As soon as these words came out, Feng Bao and Yu Huatian in the palace suddenly became nervous and looked at Xiao Cheng.
Although now the six southwest counties, plus Jiangzhou County, have all been captured by the Yun Kingdom.
But before the Xia Kingdom's coach, Deyang Hou Qimo, was defeated and died, Anguo got the inspiration and personally selected many capable, loyal and brave soldiers, scattered in the dense forests of several counties, in order to use them in the future counterattack, in order to obtain
The effect of surprise.
Can these groups of soldiers and horses be mobilized and rush into Yuanling Mansion?
显然是冲着萧承来的!
萧承闻言,却是不由冷笑一声,道:
"These few remnants of the Xia Kingdom's soldiers and horses appeared quite timely... I will satisfy him and mobilize three thousand soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress them!"
"yes!"
And at this moment, the sound of rapid footsteps sounded again on the deck outside.
一名小太监慌乱地跑入殿中,急声道:
"Your Majesty, after lunch today, some civil and military ministers and generals of the imperial army suddenly felt unwell in their stomachs, with vomiting and diarrhea. Mr. Qin from the Imperial Hospital has gone to make a diagnosis. He said it was food poisoning and immediately sent someone here.
问询陛下可有什么异样?”
冯保,雨化田闻言,顿时惊呼道:
“陛下,必有阴谋!”
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is a dark plot by the assassin behind it!"
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he remained calm as usual. He first said to the young eunuch:
"Go back to Qin He and tell him that I'm fine and let him concentrate on the treatment!"
"yes."
"Also, ask me how many people have symptoms!"
小太监闻言,连忙道:
"This slave knows! Among the sick people are some Imperial Army generals. Most of the rest are adults below the fourth rank who are accompanying them!"
"A hundred officials below the fourth rank?" Xiao Cheng said while looking towards Feng Bao.
冯保见状,思索片刻之后,却是连忙道:
"Your Majesty, it should be because the ingredients used are different... The dragon boat where Your Majesty is on, the Xiangchi boat where Empress Zhaoyi and her harem people are on, and the floating scenery boat where the important civil and military officials are. For the sake of safety, most of the ingredients used are homemade.
Carry it in the capital and preserve it carefully. Even if you need something else, you will send someone to buy it yourself."
"And in the fleet, the other officials below the fourth rank who are accompanying them, and the ingredients used by the Forbidden Army generals are all obtained from surrounding states and counties."
Of the three large ships built by Yan Song with great effort, only the one where Xiao Cheng is on can be called a dragon ship. The one where the harem concubines and waiters are accompanied by is called a Xiangchi ship. And the one where the fourth-rank and above are accompanied by hundreds of officials, or the emperor
The one where the ministers were located was called a floating view ship. The rest of the accompanying officials could only be placed on the ship that was modified from a warship.
Therefore, the people on the three large ships were all important figures in the Yun Kingdom. With Feng Bao's meticulous nature, he had already known that the cruise was not safe, so he was naturally prepared.
果不其然,这不就出事了嘛……
雨化田听到这里,忍不住道:
“这些人,出手刺杀竟然豪不掩饰?”
First, the remnants of the Xia army wreaked havoc, and then they poisoned the food eaten by the honor guard. This series of methods almost announced that they were about to take action!
萧承微微摇头,沉声道:
"Both they and I know that these two days are the last time to take action. What else do we need to cover up?"
说到这里,萧承微微一顿,继续道:
"I just don't understand. Does it seem superfluous if they poison me?"
萧承皱起眉头,似带疑惑.
Feng Bao on the side was silent for a while, and then he couldn't help but exhorted:
"Your Majesty, all the officials are sick, and the fleet does not have much medicine. If we add the fatigue of traveling and traveling, I am afraid it will be unbearable... Your Majesty, why don't we return to Yuanling Mansion, repair it for a few days, and then go to Wuling Mansion?
!”
When Xiao Cheng heard what Feng Bao said, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind. He suddenly figured out the key, clapped his hands and said:
"Why do we need to return? Send an order to allocate another three thousand forbidden troops to escort all the sick officials to Yuanling Mansion to recuperate!"
After Xiao Cheng finished speaking, Feng Bao and Yu Huatian didn't react.
After being stunned for a while, after hearing clearly what Xiao Cheng said, the two of them were startled again and hurriedly said:
"No, Your Majesty! Send three thousand imperial troops to suppress the bandits, and another three thousand to escort hundreds of officials. How many guards are left by Your Majesty's side?"
"Your Majesty, please think twice! Now that the assassins are secretly watching, this forbidden army must not be transferred!"
萧承身边,不过万余禁军护持.
It would be acceptable to dispatch three thousand forbidden troops to surround and suppress the bandit soldiers. But if another three thousand were dispatched to leave, then Xiao Cheng would only have less than five thousand forbidden troops left to protect him.
With the assassins watching eagerly, Feng Bao and Yu Huatian were unwilling to nod in agreement no matter what they said.
After hearing the two people's objections, Xiao Cheng's eyes showed contemplation again, and then he nodded directly and said:
“也对,那就先不调!”
Xiao Cheng let go so easily, but Feng Bao and Yu Huatian were stunned.
After all, His Majesty, who maintains his own force and often puts himself in danger, has never been so easy to persuade before!
Xiao Cheng didn't pay much attention to the strangeness shown by the two of them. He smiled slightly and said with deep meaning:
"Just watch!"
After Xiao Cheng gave the order, the fleet immediately anchored on the river.
Under the care of Qin He from the Imperial Hospital, several ships carrying a group of sick officials who were moaning feebly turned around and headed back towards Yuanling Mansion.
Three thousand forbidden troops were also mobilized to Luohe County, a hundred miles away, to take over the remnants of the Xia army.
剩余仪驾船队,则继续向武陵府前行.
But before the sun set in the west, there were several fast horses on the river bank, carrying the Imperial Army generals, galloping in pursuit of the fleet, conveying urgent military information.
“报!启奏陛下,沅陵府急报!”
"Your Majesty, thousands of remnants of the Xia Army have arrived at the gate of Yuanling Mansion and besieged the city. Mr. Qin from the Royal Hospital, as well as the sick officials, are all blocked on the river and cannot enter the city for treatment. Please make a quick decision, Your Majesty!"
Upon hearing this urgent military report, Feng Bao suddenly changed his color, and said with surprise and anger:
"What on earth did these local county captains do? Didn't they report earlier that the traitors were in Luohe County, a hundred miles away? How come it has only been so long before they arrived at the gate of Yuanling Mansion again? Could it be that all these traitors know how to do it?
Can’t fly?”
雨化田脸色亦是难看至极,道:
"The thief acted in such a strange way that people couldn't figure out what he was planning."
At this time, Xiao Cheng seemed to have guessed it a long time ago. His expression was indifferent and he said in a deep voice:
“调三千禁军前去救援!”
“陛下!”冯保,雨化田二人惊呼道.
萧承随意地瞥了一眼二人,道:
"You haven't seen it yet? This is the method those people came up with to transfer the Forbidden Army."
When the remnants of the Xia army appeared in Luohe County, the local county soldiers were unable to encircle and suppress them, so they obviously had no choice but to ask the Imperial Army to take action.
Hundreds of officials were poisoned, and medicines were scarce on the ship, so they had to be sent to Yuanling Mansion for treatment.
Now, Yuanling Mansion is besieged by the remnants of Xia's army. Hundreds of officials are trapped on the river and cannot receive treatment. Only the Forbidden Army can relieve the siege.
One ring after another, forcing Xiao Cheng to transfer all the forbidden troops around him.
In fact, Xiao Cheng had seen this method before, so he originally planned to send the forbidden army directly, but it seemed that he had to rush there.
However, after being reminded by Feng Bao and Feng Bao, Xiao Cheng finally came to his senses. If he acted too obviously, it would be even worse to scare the assassin away!
"But, Your Majesty, these imperial troops are less than five thousand..." Feng Bao said hesitantly.
Feng Bao wanted to persuade Xiao Cheng not to transfer the Imperial Army away. But if those hundreds of officials did not go to the city for treatment, it would be hard to say...
萧承无所谓地摆了摆手,道:
"Go for it!"
二人闻言,只能俯身一礼,转身离去.
------------------
On a hill not far from the Yuanjiang River, Feng Chu, Gong Yingzong, and a group of people from hundreds of families looked at the fleet on the Yuanjiang River from a distance.
Cen Zhiyong was still holding on to his broken folding fan, and suddenly pointed forward in surprise and said happily:
“哎,哎,哎!走了,走了!”
On both sides of the Yuanjiang River, the imperial troops escorting the fleet once again separated into thousands of troops and headed towards the Yuanling Mansion behind them.
When people from hundreds of families saw this scene, their eyes suddenly lit up with joy.
"How many people? How many people?" Cen Zhiyong asked excitedly.
“怕有三千人众!”
"Six thousand are gone, which means Emperor Yun has less than five thousand soldiers and horses with him!" Cen Zhiyong said happily.
When they first launched a test, more than 10,000 Imperial Guards were dispatched. The changing situation, the overwhelming military might, and the shocking and abnormal scene still made them quite uneasy thinking about it now.
But at this time, there are less than 5,000 forbidden troops around Xiao Cheng, which is a lot better for them!
Shen Qin, the old man of the Mo family, saw Cen Zhiyong looking so happy, snorted coldly and said:
"Hmph, with my Mo family's 'Tianzhi' mechanism beast, what does the tens of thousands of Yun troops mean? Why bother with all these tricks!"
岑志用撇了撇嘴,道:
"Old Shen, you have been in seclusion for too long and don't know the changes in the world. Back then, an army of more than 10,000 people was able to block the eighth-level masters. Now that the army is blessed with visions, I am afraid that if you don't enter the realm of land gods, you will be defeated if you confront them head-on.
Consumed to death!"
Shen Qin said with dissatisfaction, and immediately started arguing with Cen Zhi by saying "you are different from me."
At this time, Shi Mingyi stood aside, looking at Gong Yingzong with a slightly cold expression, and asked in a deep voice:
"I'm waiting in the dark and watching with eagerness, how can you dare to conclude that Emperor Yun will only keep five thousand soldiers and horses by his side?"
After hearing this, Gong Yingzong shrugged, spread his hands slightly, and said:
"I bet that Emperor Yun is arrogant and prides himself on his martial arts skills, so he dares to put himself in danger and is transferred from the Imperial Army..."
说到这里,宫英纵倒是也微微挑眉,道:
"Actually, if we really talk about it, I only planned to transfer three or four thousand imperial troops. But I didn't expect that Emperor Yun is really brave enough!"
When Shi Mingyi heard this, he just nodded slightly and turned his head again, no longer looking at Gong Yingzong.
宫英纵看着远处,拳头微微攥紧,道:
"Soon!"
------------------
Xiao Cheng walked out of the palace, looked at the sun that had set over the mountain outside, chuckled lightly, and said:
“似乎,差不多了!”
Yuhuatian stood beside Xiao Cheng, his eyes wary, and he began to look around constantly, as if an assassin was about to take action at the next moment.
萧承微微拍了拍雨化田的肩膀,笑道:
"The starry night scenery on the river is something I have rarely seen before. The current scene is worthy of a banquet with the ministers. Thousands of years later, it may become an elegant event that is praised by others!"
说到这里,萧承当即道:
"Pass the decree, uu read www.uukanshu.com. Huang Shang, a member of the Ministry of Ceremonies, Wu Qi, Sun Bin, Wei Liao, Zhao She, counselor of the Military Aircraft Department, Xin Qiji, a minister of the cabinet... Xu Zhu, the monk and official of the Senglu Department, are here to see you!"
冯保闻言,顿时一滞,小心翼翼地问道:
"Your Majesty, would you like to summon the lieutenant general of the court and the lieutenant general of the army to come?"
Hearing the list from Xiao Cheng, Feng Bao was slightly startled, and couldn't help lowering his voice and said:
"If the military ministers come and the assassins attack, it can still be..."
萧承闻言,顿时失笑一声,道:
“不用了,就招这些人!”
Although these people are civil servants, if they really take action, hehe, they can fight better than military officials!
------Digression-----
I took the time to take a look at that one today, haha, it really does look like it (the results haven’t been announced yet, I can only say that the two books are very similar...)
The most important thing is that the person opposite doesn't seem to admit it, and even posts on the author forum, making it seem like I'm asking people to trouble him.
Because I was busy with work, I could only spend a huge sum of one thousand to ask someone to help me make color palettes to compare the differences between the two novels.
Judging from the two pictures that have come out now, they are the kind that are directly translated into Chinese in large sections. The emotions are the same. I really don’t know how he dares to argue...
