I rode and slashed unparalleled in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 257 The flames of war are rising in Hebei, please personally conquer the world (joined chapter)

A few days later, in the evening, in Pingyuan County, the emperor's northern patrol team came.

It was the crisp autumn weather at this time, and the day's trip was over. After setting up camp, the emperor and a group of civil servants and generals were in high spirits.

The emperor took Liu Xie with him, holding a wine glass and smiling, immersed in the elegance of poetry.

The surrounding civil servants rushed to present poems. Although the military generals were not good at this, they all watched with interest, and occasionally uttered admiration to join in the fun.

The aftermath of the Jizhou Incident has basically subsided. Although many people are annoyed by the emperor's stubborn behavior, the reality cannot be changed, so they can only lie down and enjoy it.

Therefore, except for a few officials who are still making noise twice a day, declaring the meaning of their existence, no one is willing to disturb His Majesty's elegance and raise such eyebrows.

After all, if you really offended the emperor and were kicked out of the Northern Patrol Team, it would be a great shame for your family!

"Is there nothing we can do about the highway?" He Jin clenched his fist and said.

If anyone in this profession is in the worst mood, it must be General He Jin.

"His Majesty's series of actions clearly indicate that he has made up his mind."

Many ministers have even begun to flatter the little prince.

"But at the moment, the military situation is urgent and the enemy's situation is unclear. Your Majesty still needs to come up with countermeasures as soon as possible."

Suddenly, a translator holding a document in his hand came galloping over. He was covered in dust, panting, and had a look of horror on his face.

Hey.

"His Majesty."

Especially now that the emperor is reciting poems and composing poems every day, and whether he is listening to the right music or playing it correctly, the prince Liu Xie is inseparable from him, showing his favor.

To be honest, it doesn't matter to Yuan Shu personally who becomes the prince.

Lu Zhi stood up and held his hands:

He Jin's face turned red after hearing this, although Yuan Shu didn't say anything.

He didn't understand what was going on, but it was obviously beneficial to him.

"Report—emergency military information!" The translator's voice was trembling and urgent, instantly making everyone quiet and their eyes focused on him.

But He Jin, it was the Yuan family who had invested a lot of money and was deeply bound to them, and they also obeyed their words. Therefore, Yuan Shu could only stand in the same camp with him now and could not give up.

But
Glancing at Su Yao, who was standing alone with his arms crossed not far away, he gritted his teeth and shook his head:

Liu Hong clenched his fists and thought so!
At this moment, Liu Hong even thought coldly:

Lulongsai fell, and the traitor Zhang Chun led the Wuhuan kings to defeat the Cavalry Commander Gongsun Zan! "

"what?!"

What to say, wise, steady, articulate, and so on.

Amid the uproar among the ministers, the emperor suddenly stood up:
"How can this be?!"

Although he couldn't remember where Lulongsai was for the moment, Gongsun Zan and Liu Hong still had an impression.

The most important thing is that the Hebei Plain is flat, and the enemy can march straight in at any time to threaten the Holy Emperor. "

This further made He Jin feel frightened.

"Then what countermeasures do you have?" Liu Hong gritted his teeth and asked.

"His Majesty!"

Before setting off, Liu Hong also made sure that these people reported that nothing happened at the border fortress and the enemy situation was stable, so he felt relieved and set off for the northern patrol.

"General, from now on, we must tighten our grip on military power."

He Jin was shocked.

Now, halfway through the journey, the northern frontier suddenly fell?
What the hell is Gongsun Zan doing? !

Together with Liu Yu, who had just taken office, he was stationed in Youzhou and was responsible for dealing with the rebels led by the traitor Zhang Chun Zhang Ju.

Just as the two men were sighing, the emperor was in high spirits.

After saying that, the emperor's eyes immediately stared sternly at He Jin and Lu Zhi, and he felt a strong sense of conspiracy.

But he could vaguely feel that the legitimate son of the Yuan family believed in Zhang Rang before complaining about him, which caused them to lose their position as the general and such a powerful killer.

The smile on the emperor's face gradually disappeared, he put down his wine glass and stared away.

"Lulong fortress is the gateway to the north. The loss of this fortress not only means that the Wuhuan people inside and outside the fortress will be linked with the rebels.

Of course, Yuan Shu knew all about He Jin's worries.

So he quickly stepped out of the queue and clasped his fists, saying:
"This matter is indeed unexpected. I don't know who I am, and I am willing to accept your majesty's punishment."

"I suggest that we immediately mobilize troops from all over the world to serve the king, at the same time terminate the northern inspection tour, quickly return to Beijing to take charge, and then look for other plans!"

"Urgent report from Youzhou!

"Don't have any more illusions about those erections!"

"I gave him an army of eight thousand, how could he be defeated so easily?!"

This man was from Liaodong and was a student of Lu Zhi. He was recommended by He Jin to be promoted to captain of cavalry shortly after he was promoted to captain of the cavalry by the magistrate of Zhuo County for his contribution to Zhang Chun and the Wuhuan rebels.

Could it be that these traitors dare to lure foreign troops to threaten me?

As if to answer the emperor's doubts.

Immediately afterwards, several more ministers came out one after another, and they all talked:

"I deeply agree with Lu Shangshu's old advice of seeking the country. I sincerely request your Majesty to return to Beijing as soon as possible!"

"I second the proposal and ask your Majesty to return to the capital!"

"I second the proposal and ask your Majesty to return to the capital!"

"I second the proposal"

Seeing such a scene, Liu Hong's hands couldn't help trembling.

Here we go again, the same drama as last time!

Is this really a trick of these people? !
Almost subconsciously, Liu Hong's eyes looked towards the tiger general who was in charge of the imperial army.

The last time, Yuan Shu put on armor and came to remonstrate, which frightened him so much that he had to obey.

This time.
Looking at Su Yao, Liu Hong's pupils shrank.

I saw that the new lieutenant was also coming in armor!

but
——"I, Su Yao, invite you to fight!"

"what?!"

"Please fight?!"

"Marquis Guannei, what are you making a fuss about!"

When the ministers saw this disruptor again, their noses became angry:

"Since ancient times, when marching and fighting, we must always pay attention to knowing oneself and the enemy so that one can fight a hundred times without danger."

"Now that the military situation is unclear, and we don't even know how many enemies there are or where they are, you invite a fight?"

"How can we allow you to play such a childish role in national affairs?!"

Seeing that the pressure was instantly transferred to Su Yao, Liu Hong let out a sigh of relief.

But he also felt deeply ridiculous about Su Yao's request for a fight.
But before the emperor could speak, Lu Zhi, who had the most combat experience among everyone present, took the lead to stand up.

However, this time Lu Zhi did not object without thinking!
Having been on the battlefield, he knew the value of a victorious general.

You can get lucky once or twice, but you can't win all the time without real ability.

Therefore, even if Lu Zhi found it difficult to accept the behavior of Guannei Hou, at this moment, in the critical situation, he still asked:

"What does the Marquis of Guannei know about this enemy situation?
And is there really a good strategy to defeat the enemy? "

——"Lu Shangshu, what's the use of you and him!"

"What could he know?"

"This bastard, I'm afraid he's going to say something stupid again about killing me!"

"He is a reckless man!"

Su Yao laughed heartily at these words: "What a coincidence, I know more about these traitors than you do."

After saying that, Su Yao cupped his hands to the emperor who raised his eyebrows in surprise:

"Your Majesty, please allow me to call someone over."

"This person's accusations against the rebels are very detailed and can be used for your Majesty's reference."

"Oh?"

The emperor asked:

"Who do you want to call the Marquis of Guannei? Do you know the details?"

"Your Majesty should also know this person. He is Zhen Jiang, the eldest daughter of the Wuji Zhen family in Zhongshan."

"what?!"

"Zhen Jiang?"

"How could it be her?!"

"Folk girl Zhen Jiang has met His Majesty!"

As night fell, Zhen Jiang knelt on the ground in the Northern Patrol Camp, his body trembling slightly.

She never thought that she, a little girl, would have the opportunity to meet the saint directly!
"The Marquis of Guannei said that you were referring to the rebels' inside story, but is that true?" Zhang Rang, the waiter at Zhongchang, asked anxiously.

Zhang Changshi really didn't expect, no, everyone didn't expect that Su Yao would actually find this woman with whom he had an affair!

"National affairs are not something to be trifled with, take action quickly and seriously!"

Zhang Changshi's hurried questioning made Zhen Jiang tremble and get stuck on the spot.

At this moment, Su Yao stood up, narrowed his eyes and said:
"Changshi Zhang, don't be impatient. It's a very important matter. Let Miss Zhen speak slowly."

Zhen Jiang glanced at Su Yao gratefully. She knew that this was the opportunity given to her by the Marquis of Guannei.

This is so rare and unexpected.

Thinking that she had always wanted to vote for the general before, and then looking at the emperor's attitude towards the Prince Association, and the configuration of the Xiyuan Army, Zhen Jiang finally understood why Su Yao had asked her to wait for a while before talking.

After seeing these changes, how could she not understand, so she immediately decided to seek refuge with Su Yao.

Naturally, Su Yao welcomed this very much. This not only meant that he could get closer to this beauty, and his relationship would be further developed. More importantly, it was the intelligence network in Youji controlled by the Wuji Zhen family.

Since ancient times, wars have been fought with intelligence.

Even before the Northern Patrol set off, Su Yao, who had determined that he would have conflicts with rebels such as Wang Fen and Zhang Chun, naturally made arrangements in advance.

Earlier, he had used Wuji Zhen's intelligence network to unlock Jizhou's strategic map and information. After seeing that Wang Fen had not rebelled, he was confident enough to attack directly.

And now, Su Yao also wants to use this resource to persuade the emperor here - Yujia personally conquers!
Yes, the emperor will conquer it himself!
He is now the tiger general in charge of the Imperial Guard and must follow the emperor.

If the emperor ran away and asked others to quell the chaos, then the incident and his achievements would have nothing to do with him.

Once he returns to Beijing, it will be difficult to get promoted and gain military merit.

Su Yao was not prepared to fulfill the wishes of Yuan Shu and others in Luoyang City and spend time playing tricks with them!
Therefore, he had to let the emperor stay.

This would put down Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion in one fell swoop, earn enough military merit to be promoted to a general, and it would be best if he could also settle his marriage to Princess Wannian, that would be perfect.

To achieve such a goal, it is obviously not possible to just rely on him to fight alone and fight in a small way.
So, while Su Yao was thinking, Zhen Jiang also told the emperor and the ministers the situation.

It turns out that the Zhen family, who are natives of Wuji County in the Zhongshan Kingdom, do not know everything about the Zhangju and Zhangchun rebels who started a rebellion based in the Zhongshan Kingdom.

Several members of their family even broke into Zhang Ju's rebel army.

"There are two key reasons why Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju's rebellion has become more and more violent and has been difficult to quell."

"The first is that Zhang Chun has a close relationship with the Wuhuan people. Throughout the two weeks of Youji, the Wuhuan people inside and outside the Great Wall were mobilized by him.

Together with their local rebels, these people eventually formed an infantry and cavalry army of more than 100,000 people to fight against Liu Youzhou and General Gongsun's army of less than 30,000 people. "

"The second is that the city of Lunu run by Zhang Chun has strong walls. General Gongsun Zan has repelled their invasions several times, but he was unable to do anything to the city. He finally evacuated under the pressure of the Wuhuan people in the north."

"Today's rebels are centered on Lunu of the Zhongshan Kingdom and occupy the two counties of Zhuojun and Guangyang in Youzhou. Using these three counties as their strongholds, they link up with the Wuhuan people inside and outside Yanshan to harm Youji and constantly harass and rob them. Loot the three counties of Guangyang, Yuyang and Youbeiping."

"Since the Lulongsai was defeated today, I think they have also achieved success in Liaoxi County."

"With an army of 100,000? To occupy three counties? To plunder four counties?"

"What are Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan doing?!"

Liu Hong was stunned when he heard this. He knew that Zhang Chun Zhang Ju had a headache, but it was indeed the first time he heard such specific information.

The reason is also very simple. Since the rebels were too powerful to control, he sealed the entire Youzhou to Liu Yu and let him handle it on his own.

Now that he suddenly got this report, he couldn't help but be surprised.

This guy is so terrifying at the Thief Soldiers Peak. The more he fights, the more he fights. How can he continue to patrol the north?
Sure enough, when the ministers heard this, they all asked to return to Beijing as soon as possible.

"A gentleman would not stand behind a dangerous wall. Your Majesty, please return to the capital as soon as possible!"

"Your Majesty, please return to Beijing quickly!"

I was so frightened that I pissed myself. All the ministers were frightened and pissed themselves.

When they came out, no one ever thought about fighting:
"Beyond the dark clouds is a flat plain. If Your Majesty doesn't leave quickly, there may be a repeat of Great Ancestor Bai Deng's siege!"

The siege of Baideng? !
Upon hearing this, Liu Hong also took it seriously and felt that it was unlikely to be forced by internal and external collusion. He breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help feeling regretful at the same time.

Must go back.

However, just when the emperor said yes.
——"Your Majesty, do you want to let go of such a good opportunity to defeat the enemy?!" Su Yao interjected.

"what?"

"Marquis Guannei!"

"You are talking nonsense again!"

However, Su Yao snorted coldly:
"A group of rabble-roused people actually frightened the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty to this extent. It is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!"

"U-rabble?!"

"Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu have less than 30,000 troops, but they can resist an army of 100,000 for a long time. Why?"

Su Yao waved his hand:

"It's just that the enemy is a coalition, each has its own subordinates, and they have different intentions."

"On weekdays, they go around raiding homes and buildings, using fortified cities to protect themselves, and harassing people constantly."

"Now that they are marching south with the power of great victory, it is time for Your Majesty to raise the banner, recruit troops and horses, and unite people's hearts."

"And I am willing to serve as your Majesty's vanguard and attack him head-on!"

"This flat stretch of river in the Hebei Plain will surely become the burial place of these traitors."

"At that time, under His Majesty's banner, the main force will be destroyed, and then there will be no one to defend the city, and it will be destroyed overnight."

"To put an end to thieves in one fell swoop, today is the day!"

Silence, dead silence.
After Su Yao finished speaking in one breath.

All the civil and military officials, eunuchs and maids, and even the emperor himself looked at Su Yao with expressions of disbelief and couldn't imagine it.

The emperor was also stunned for a long time, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said hoarsely:
"Does the Marquis of Guannei mean that I, the imperial commander, will conduct the expedition myself and use my body as bait?"

It was said, someone finally said it, and it was the emperor himself who said it!

Yes!

How outrageous!

What a shame!

Although I don’t know where the old saying goes: If you don’t want to bear children, you can’t trap the wolf.

But this is the emperor!

The supreme emperor of the Nine Five Years, the Marquis of Guannei actually asked him to put up a flag as bait!

"Be bold!"

"presumptuous!"

"Are your neck itchy?"

In an instant, the ministers set off a huge wave!
