Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Jinling City of Xia Kingdom, in the Fengtian Palace of the Imperial Palace.

All the officials of the Xia Kingdom gathered here, after learning about the lost military situation of Chaisang in Xunyang County, were visibly frightened by the naked eye.

Less than half a month after the resumption of the war, the Yun army had captured Xunyang County, and there was only Yicheng County left in the capital of Xia Kingdom.

If Shuzhou hadn't been defended, the Yun army would have flowed down the river to Jinling, which would only take a few days.How can this not frighten the officials!
"Your Majesty, Liao Gu, Marquis of Hanchuan, failed to defend the land, causing the Yun army to capture Xunyang County within ten days. The capital is in danger, and the country is in turmoil. I beg your majesty, ask the crime immediately, so that the hearts of the army and the people will be at ease!"

"Your Majesty, punish Han Chuan Hou severely, so that everyone can feel at ease!"

Veteran General Yuan Feizhang, when he heard the voice of impeachment from the imperial court, his expression changed drastically. Without waiting for Yu Zhaoling to speak, he stood up and scolded:

"After Panlong Water Fortress was broken, Marquis Hanchuan made a decisive decision and immediately ordered the main force to return to aid Chaisang. There was nothing wrong with this arrangement! Relying on the advantage of the Inland River Navy, the Yun Army controlled the waterway of the Yangtze River and attacked Ruichang City overnight. That's what made the situation so bad."

"It's a disadvantage in this battle, and Han Chuanhou should never be blamed!"

At this time, Yu Zhaoling also frowned and said:

"The words of impeachment of Marquis Hanchuan, don't say any more!"

Not to mention just reading the battle report, Liao Gu made no mistakes or omissions in his arrangements, and was even very foresighted.It was only because the Yun Army had the advantage of being a navy that it attacked Ruichang City by surprise, blocking the Xia Army's way of reinforcements.

If this is the crime, what do the frontline soldiers think?
Also, even if the main responsibility lies with Liao Gu, at this time he is leading an army of [-] to defend Qichang Mansion, it is impossible for the Xia Kingdom court to punish him, so as not to feel dissatisfied with Liao Gu.

The officials who impeached Liao Gu were suppressed, but there were several officials. I don't know if they were really frightened, or they were really thinking about Xia Guosheji. At this time, they directly came out to remonstrate:
"The army of Yun is in full swing and is invincible. Your Majesty, please hunt north for now to avoid the sharp edge!"

"Suiyang City in Guide County in Yudi is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, far away from the front line. In the north, it can rely on the Sihuai area to hold its ground. The heavy troops stationed here make it difficult for the cloud army to drive straight in. This place can be used as an accompanying capital for your majesty's hundreds of officials to patrol. !"

"Your Majesty, please think about Daxia Sheji and avoid Yun Junfeng for the time being!"

Hearing the words of the officials in the palace moving the capital to Jinyang, Yu Zhaoling on the dragon chair laughed angrily:
"Suiyang, Guide County? Do you want me to abandon the capital and flee to Suiyang City north of the Yangtze River in embarrassment with all the officials and clan?"

Guide County in Yudi is located in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Fleeing here, of course, can ensure that the cloud army will not attack Suiyang all at once, as the admonishing officials said, threatening the safety of the emperor and all officials.

But once they escape to Suiyang, Guide County, it means that Xia Kingdom will hand over the counties south of the Yangtze River to Yun Kingdom!
Now Xia Kingdom can barely confront Yun Kingdom, relying on the wealth of Jiangnan.Abandoning the land in the south of the Yangtze River, Xia Kingdom will no longer be able to compete with Yun Kingdom.

On the surface, Beishou's remonstrance seems to have temporarily preserved the officials and clan, but in fact, it is still a way to kill!
It's just that the sudden death has been changed into a slow death.

Yu Zhaoling's eyes were piercingly cold, without any hesitation, he immediately yelled at the officials:
"Anyone who remonstrates with this statement will shake the hearts of the government and the public, and their hearts will be punishable!"

Yu Zhaoling has been on the throne for several years, and he has already experienced it, and he knows that what he says is important now.Therefore, when speaking on weekdays, I have long habitually left some leeway.

But this time, he was obviously pissed off by the officials of the DPRK and China admonishing Beishou, and his tone was angry and severe, leaving no room for it.It never occurred to him that if the Yun army really attacked the city of Jinling, it would be difficult for him to step down because of today's statement that he would never move the capital.

As soon as Yu Zhaoling's words came out, the officials who stood up to persuade Beishou froze for a moment, and stood there in a daze, a little at a loss.

The old Sikong Meichong has always been the mediator for the operation of government affairs in the court, the monarch and his ministers, and all civil and military officials.

At this time, he didn't want the court to cause more disturbances because of this incident at this time, so he stood up quickly and changed the subject:
"Your Majesty can't bear to see the people of the capital suffer from war, then you should
It is time to quickly dispatch troops and horses, send them to Yicheng County, return to Raoyang Marquis to dispatch them, and resist the cloud army!"

Hearing the old Sikong's words, Yu Zhaoling glanced fiercely at Chaozhong Baiguan, then took a deep breath, gradually calmed down, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Quickly dispatch troops from Gyeonggi Daying and Dangtu Daying to Yicheng County, where they will merge with the Shuzhou garrison troops and form an army of [-] sharp soldiers! Counties in the south of the Yangtze River and counties in Henan The county soldiers should also hurry to help Yicheng County."

"Decree that Wu Zhengping, Marquis of Raoyang, will command the army of Yicheng County to resist the attack of the cloud army."

"In addition, the Jinling navy stationed in the capital still has [-] warships. Except for [-] left behind, the rest are all sent to Shuzhou, Yicheng County."

"At all costs, Shuzhou must be kept for me!"

Having said that, Yu Zhaoling said loudly again:

"North Korea and China are going all out to raise food, grass and weapons, organize military drills, and hoard troops for a counterattack!"

"The people of Zhongshe immediately drafted an order, secretly Song Weigang Qichang Mansion and Hongzhou, and ordered Liao Gu and Sun Qianfang to defend with all their strength. They must hammer down nails in the rear and sides of the Yun army to restrain them. When we wait for the counterattack, cooperate with our generals. Xia soldiers and horses, annihilate the invading cloud army!"

From this arrangement, it can be seen that this Yu Zhaoling is not only thinking of containing and blocking the Yun army, but even thinking of how to counterattack back.
Hearing the words, all the ministers had different thoughts, but they didn't show it on their faces. They all bowed down and saluted, and said loudly:

"Minister, please follow the order!"
-

Yunguo, Xiangzhou County, Daying of Longnan Prefecture.

A spy who was ordered to pass on the secret order of the military situation hurried into the commander's tent at this time, holding a sealed official document in his hand, knelt down on one knee, and said loudly to Di Qing, who was above the commander-in-chief:
"Report to Marshal, there is a military order from the Ministry of War!"

Hearing this, Di Qing's eyes lit up, she stood up abruptly, and said impatiently:
"Quick, bring it here!"

The soldiers around him quickly took it and handed it to Di Qing.

Di Qing couldn't wait to open the official document of the Ministry of War, saw the deployment order on it, immediately laughed a few times, and said:

"Hahaha, it's finally here!"

Under the current situation, what could be the official document of the Ministry of War that can make Di Qing so happy?
Naturally, the Ministry of War ordered Di Qing to lead his troops to attack Xia Guo!
Di Qing was exhilarated, with a high-spirited temperament and a fighting spirit, and immediately shouted:

"Beat the drum, gather the generals!"

"Yes!" The soldiers around him also responded excitedly.

The next moment, in the camp of Longnan Mansion, the sound of thunderous military drums was heard, the sound was muffled and powerful, piercing through the ears, and all the noisy sounds in the general camp were completely suppressed.

Seeing this situation, the generals quickly put down their military affairs and ran to the commander's tent.

When all the generals in the camp gathered together, Di Qing held the white tiger seal in his hand, raised it high in front of everyone, and shouted sharply:

"According to His Majesty's decree, the Ministry of Military Affairs has dispatched orders! Xia Guo detained our Dayun Mission for no reason and violated the peace treaty between the two countries. Immediately order the camp of Longnan Prefecture to attack Xia!"

Hearing this, all the generals knelt down on one knee, and the sound of armor blades colliding rang out in the commander's tent.

All the generals looked at Ye Ye with enthusiasm, as if a ball of fire was burning.The vigorous fighting spirit around him made people dare not look directly at him.

"The last general is waiting, follow the dispatch!"

"Rise up an army to attack Xia, and die without turning around!"
