Chapter 854

The housewarming banquet of the Li family made the capital talk about it, especially the aborigines in the capital. The capital was far away from the rich and powerful for too long.

It is reflected in the frequent traffic of carriages representing powerful families on the streets of the capital, the business of restaurants in the capital is booming, and there are more officials' children and rich families on the streets.

The people in the capital did not dare to go out to the streets for a while, and there were many fewer children playing around on the streets.

When the team to move the capital by land first arrived in Bozhou, the court was still fighting for the official position of the Ministry of Education, and Hule China personally led troops to raid Bozhou.

The grassland people outside the border of Jizhou were unwilling to leave, and gradually formed a frontier town outside Jizhou over time.

Hulechina's army attacked Jizhou, and Jizhou knew that the grasslands had not let down their vigilance. This raid suffered a loss because there were not as many soldiers and horses in Jizhou as Hulechina.

Hule China's army crossed the border and first robbed the frontier town composed of grassland people. In the past two years, grassland soldiers and horses have been looting everywhere, even if they face their own people.

The acts of plundering were indulged wantonly, which made the grassland people who wanted to enter China completely alienated from the grassland.

Jizhou has been expanding the city wall in the past two years. If it were not blocked by the city wall, Jizhou would have been broken by Hule China in a few rounds.

Jizhou closed the city gate tightly, and the generals on the city wall could see the endless enemy army.

General Fang, the defender of Jizhou, put down his binoculars and said in a tired tone, "The enemy keeps attacking continuously, and we are very passive."

Jizhou reserves a lot of firearms, but Hu Leichina's soldiers are not afraid of life and death, and let the enemy soldiers touch the city gate. What is even more hateful is that the grassland also has huge firearms. At this time, the city wall of Jizhou is seriously damaged. Reinforcements can come in time.

In the capital, Yang Xixuan has already ordered to support Jizhou, and at the same time gave an order to Rongzhou, even if he knows that Hu Lechi will not fight on two fronts, he must act cautiously.

Fortunately, Yang Xixuan had already made arrangements when the grassland was disturbed, otherwise Hu Lechi would have been caught off guard.

You must know that once the grassland army breaks through the border, Hulechi can go straight to the capital. For Hulechina who has been to the capital, the grassland knows the route to Beijing.

While Yang Xixuan dispatched troops to support first, he also ordered the Northeast garrison to send troops directly if there were any changes in the Northeast tribes.

At the same time, Yang Xixuan directly appointed the officials of the grain road planned by various forces, and demoted many officials who intervened. This made it clear to all forces that officials on the grain road should not be touched.

Yang Xixuan didn't plan to lead the troops himself, nor did he plan to send Li Yongyan as the main general, but looked at Han Chenhui and General Liu.

After the morning court, Han Chenhui went straight to Duke Dingguo's mansion. At this time, Yang Xi and his wife were receiving Mr. Xie. The Xie family's children went to Beijing first, and Mr. Xie didn't leave in order to surprise Yang Xi.

Today, Yang Xi and his wife were pleasantly surprised, Yang Xi, "Do I understand that Master is willing to come to the Royal Academy?"

Mr. Xie nodded, "Teaching and educating people is very good."

He didn't think about himself but also the Xie clan. If he didn't return to the officialdom and enter the Royal Academy, he could not only gain fame for the Xie clan, but also seek a future for the descendants of the clan.

When Han Chenhui arrived, Yang Xi and his wife were showing Mr. Xie the various regulations of the Royal Academy.

Han Chenhui's intention for coming was very straightforward, "The emperor hasn't appointed a general yet, but I don't want to continue leading troops."

Zhou Yu could guess Xixuan's mind, the Li family can't continue to use it, and Ming Jiao can't go to the battlefield either, so Han Chenhui is the least threatening.

Han Chenhui looked at Zhou Yu, "I'm already the Duke."

Zhou Yu, "You can fight for hereditary."

Han Chenhui's toothache was in severe pain, he was indeed moved, but when he thought of his young son, his heart stopped instantly, "The emperor knows that I need to recuperate."

He hadn't picked up a weapon for a long time in order to recuperate, so he couldn't be allowed to pluck his wool just because he was safe, because he had a lot of hidden diseases in his body.

Han Chenhui said in a low tone, "Actually, Ziheng can also lead troops."

Even if he is not the coach, Zi Heng is qualified.

Zhou Yu rolled his eyes, "The emperor does not allow it."

Xixuan has already arranged the future for Ziheng, so don't think about it when Ziheng enters the household department, he will be transferred to the household department after the spring next year.

As for whether to enter the Hanlin Academy or not, it really can't affect Ziheng's official career.

Han Chenhui felt sore, the emperor's partiality was always clear, Zhou Yu patted Han Chenhui's shoulder, "The emperor didn't make the final decision."

So don't scare yourself, the court has many generals who can fight, the emperor is interested in Han Chenhui not only Han Chenhui is not a threat, but also because Han Chenhui knows the grassland situation better.

Han Chenhui went straight to Duke Dingguo's mansion, and Yang Xixuan knew the news immediately. He threw the booklet in his hand, "Tsk, I thought he wanted to fight for hereditary succession."

Ming Jiao recalled Han Chenhui's behavior in Jiaozhou, "He just wanted to live a few more years."

Yang Xixuan hummed, the imperial court did have many generals who could fight, but many generals were stationed at the border, few of them were as hard as Hu Lechi.

If it wasn't for the northern foreigners to send firearms to the grassland, he really didn't want to use Han Chenhui. Through the battle report sent by Jizhou, Hulechi not only had firearms from the northern foreigners, but also foreigners from other countries to support.

Huaguo continued to study firearms, and foreigners never gave up. Over the years, foreigners improved a lot of firearms, and Guan Yi suffered a lot from the new firearms.

Yang Xixuan understands the purpose of foreigners supporting Hu Lechina, Huaguo's weakened national power will not be able to support Guanyi, and foreigners still want to get back the shipping rights.

Yang Xixuan sneered, these foreigners came up with a good idea, Hu Lechi knew that a war with Huaguo was unavoidable, so he pushed the boat forward and joined forces.

Li Yongyan and the others looked at each other, and Li Yongyan said, "This time Hule China will fight to the death, we must keep the grassland army out of the border."

Now is the autumn harvest time, once the grasslands are allowed to grab enough food, the consequences will be disastrous.

Duke Dingguo's mansion had just sent Han Chenhui away, but the concierge sent a message saying that it was General Wei who asked to see him.

As soon as Yang Xi came to the study, he heard the steward's report, "This one is also here for the expedition."

Zhou Yu signaled the steward to invite someone in, "He wants to be knighted wholeheartedly, so naturally he doesn't want to miss this opportunity."

Although their husband and wife did not participate in government affairs, they often saw the emperor, as long as they were willing to help and say a word, Wei Dian would be able to get what he wanted.

Wei Dian strode in. He hadn't seen him for many years. He was already a general when he was a boy.

Wei Dian greeted first, and then explained why he came. The competition for this expedition was fierce, and the first batch of generals who did not win the title all wanted to compete.

Zhou Yu knew that Wei Dian was just the beginning, and he didn't want to ask for help, so he refused bluntly, "Our husband and wife are teachers."

So they don't speak for anyone.

Wei Dian was not disappointed, he also wanted to try his luck this time, what if it worked out!
After Yang Xi and his wife sent Wei Dian away, Yang Xi pointed to Zhuangzi outside the capital, "The Zhuangzi we bought has been repaired for two years. Shall we go to Zhuangzi to live for a while?"

Zhou Yu, "Very good."
