dream of red mansion

Chapter 683 The one who knows me is the only one who loves you
When drunk, he turned on the lamp to watch the sword, dreaming back to blow the horns and even camp.

Eight hundred miles under the command of burning, fifty strings turned over the sound of the plug.

Soldiers on the battlefield in autumn.

The horse made Lu Fei swift, bow like a thunderbolt.

After the king's world affairs, he won the name after his life.

Poor white happens.

This is the heroic and tragic song beyond the Great Wall.

In the north of the Great Wall, tens of thousands of foreign troops are arrayed here.Almost every [-] miles, there is an endless barracks stretching across the vast grassland.Seen from the sky, it seems to be connected into a huge beast.

Inside the Great Wall, a larger number of the Great Chu army will guard against death and stand ready for death!

The battlefield is complex and changeable, and it is by no means a pure competition of military strength.

Zhenbei General Wang Ziteng is the commander of hundreds of thousands of troops within the Great Wall.

Although the army was significantly larger than the enemy, Wang Ziteng did not dare to be careless.Because Da Chu faced not only the Cossack cavalry, but also the Mongolian tribes and Hu tribes who might rebel at any time.

But the Cossacks are still the main enemy of Da Chu.As long as the hundreds of thousands of Cossack cavalry in front were defeated, Wang Ziteng knew that other small countries would immediately bow their heads to Great Chu.

This point is very clear to him who is proficient in the art of war and familiar with history books.

After half a year of confrontation with the Cossacks, both sides suffered casualties.Both sides have their own knowledge of the combat effectiveness of the two armies.

In all fairness, if the Great Wall hadn't stood firm, he knew that he might not be able to stop the hundreds of thousands of Cossack cavalry guarding the tens of millions of Chu people behind him based on the speed of the opponent's cavalry coming and going without a trace.

However, with the Great Wall of Heaven.Advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, everything will be very different.

Given time, he didn't think it would be difficult to defeat the Cossack cavalry.

In General Zhenbei's mansion, Wang Ziteng was discussing strategies and tactics with his soldiers.

"The Cossack cavalry ran for thousands of miles. Although their combat power was fierce, it made all the Mongolian tribes terrified. However, their home base was tens of thousands of miles away, and all military resources were self-sufficient. After more than half a year of consumption, there was not much left.

As long as we keep them out of the pass, it won't be long before they have no military resources and food, and the alliance with Ningus and other tribes will collapse in an instant. At that time, it will be the time for our entire army to fight back!
In this battle, this general decided to leave all the 20 Cossacks on the Tatar grassland, which can be regarded as revenge for the Ugin Khan clan. "

The prince said vigorously, with strong confidence in his words.After speaking, he motioned to Ugin Khan who was sitting next to him.

The Tatar army was breached by the Cossack cavalry within half a month, and it was too late to clean up the remnants.In desperation, Wujin Khan had no choice but to lead [-] royal tent cavalry, and traveled thousands of miles south to seek the protection of the Chu army.

Wang Ziteng also took a fancy to the thousands of elite cavalry under his command, and it was no small force to keep him.

Of course, this is also the meaning of the court.

If he wins in the future, he will still need Ugin Khan's status as the Tatar royal family to gather the herdsmen of the Tatar tribe and stabilize the outside of the Great Wall.

"Our sweat said, thank you, General Wang." The Chinese-speaking people around Jinwu Khan responded on his behalf.He himself also stood up to perform the ceremony, his body shaking a little.

He was quite old in the first place, and with this blow, he seemed to be unable to hold on anymore.

Seeing this, Wang Ziteng said: "Come here, send Jinwu Khan back to rest."

Jinwu Khan did not refuse, he knew that Wang Ziteng and others were going to discuss more confidential military affairs, and it was already inconvenient for him to be here as an outsider.

As soon as he left, Wang Ziteng was about to arrange the specific deployment, but he received a tip from the court.

"Marriage, the imperial court actually accepted their marriage proposal! They can't understand such a simple plan to slow down the war!"

Prince Teng said angrily.

The south study room was silent.

After a long time, Emperor Zhengqing said to Fang Shou and the others, "How sincere do you think the Russians are in negotiating peace this time?"

Here, sitting at this moment are all his most confidant courtiers.

"Less than five floors."

After thinking for a moment, Cui Wenlong spoke first.

"Their 20 cavalry came aggressively. They have only been fighting for half a year, and they have not yet shown a defeat. How can they sincerely negotiate peace with us?"

"However, they took the initiative to agree to marry the princess to our Dachu."

Wu Hao, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, also said, and immediately said: "Is it true that what Wang Ziteng said, this is their plan to delay the army. They really have run out of food and grass. Seeing that they have been unable to attack for a long time, they are planning a temporary truce. The intention is to completely occupy Tatar first. Fight again?"

Hearing this, Emperor Zhengqing seemed very hesitant.

Wang Ziteng has given him several memorials in succession.In fact, he agrees with many of Wang Ziteng's views.

How
"Father, I have already made preparations. I am confident that I will win this battle."

"Soldiers are weapons. There is no sure way to win. You have to remember the ancient saying that war is dangerous. Now that the other side has offered to negotiate a peace, there is no reason for you not to."

"But."

"You don't have to. Before you wanted to fight, I won't stop you. Because peace without the baptism of blood cannot be maintained.

Now half a year has passed since the war, and the people are trapped in the quagmire of war. As the king of a country, you can't bear it!

All right, back off. "

This is a conversation he had that day when he went to pay his respects to the Supreme Emperor.

"His Majesty?"

Dai Quan called out.

Emperor Zhengqing came back to his senses, and said to Lin Ruhai, "How is the household department?"

Lin Ruhai replied: "The treasury's money and food can still support the war ahead for more than a year. If the imperial court does not spend too much in the next three years, the whole country is stable, and there are no excessive natural disasters, even if we fight for a few more years, we can still support it!"

Emperor Zhengqing's heart felt hot when he heard this, and he calmed down immediately.

He probably guessed the reason why the Supreme Emperor wanted to discuss peace.

The whole country is stable, and it can be supported by fighting at the border for several years!However, what is the stability of the whole country means that there are no natural disasters or rebellions in Dachu, and the imperial court spends all its money on wars.

The Supreme Emperor, he is already in his 80s, and what he hopes is to enjoy his old age peacefully.

The Supreme Emperor is not an emperor who advocates frugality.Perhaps, he was already dissatisfied with the reduction of expenditure by the court before.

The most important thing is that the Supreme Emperor may not necessarily want him to win this battle.
When Emperor Zhengqing thought of this, his pupils shrank.

"In any case, let the Ministry of Rites proceed with the peace negotiation, and we will discuss other matters in the light of the current situation." In the end, Emperor Zhengqing concluded in this way.

"Yes."

Everyone is not fully sure of the current situation.The main reason is that Emperor Zhengqing's own attitude is very vague, and it's hard for them to make too many assertions.

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

Emperor Zhengqing nodded, and suddenly said: "Cui Aiqing stay."

Cui Wenlong stayed behind, and the others left one by one.

"The Ministry of Rites wrote a letter today asking about the candidates for the wedding envoy. Do you have any suggestions?"

Emperor Zhengqing said.

The other party took the initiative to send the princess to Da Chu to make a marriage, and Da Chu naturally had to show his attitude.

Therefore, the selection of the welcoming envoy is particularly important.

Too high a status seems to be flattering, after all, the two countries are now at war.If the status is too low, he will be accused of being negligent.

Cui Wenlong is the person who understands Emperor Zhengqing's thoughts best, and he knows Emperor Zhengqing's attitude.

Originally, it would be best to choose someone from the imperial family as the envoy, but it seems that Emperor Zhengqing didn't want that, so...
"The minister has a candidate."

"who?"

"What do you think of Jia Qing, Your Majesty?"

Emperor Zhengqing frowned.

Cui Wenlong continued: "Your Majesty, don't forget, he is the younger brother of Concubine Jia."

Emperor Zhengqing gradually understood what Cui Wenlong meant, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"The one who knows me is the only one who loves you."
