retaliate

Chapter 1438
The first battle against the Japanese army made the Northern Xinjiang army awe-inspiring.

"Your Highness, how to dispose of those corpses?"

A general came to ask for instructions.

"Bury!"

Qin Wang looked in the direction of Bianjing and said: "Han Bi used five thousand dead soldiers to shock the morale of our army. His goal has been achieved. But the shock is shocking, unless he can find [-] elite Japanese soldiers, otherwise ...the Southern Zhou Dynasty will become history this year."

……

Secret agents from the Department of Love watched the battle in disguise nearby.

Then report back to Bianjing.

"Five thousand soldiers of the Japanese army bravely rushed to the Northern Frontier Army without fear of death. The King of Qin was in the rear and witnessed the battle. Those soldiers..."

The secret agent of Lover's Department should be cold-blooded, but this secret agent choked up, "Even if they are hung on the spear, they still sing military songs and try their best to bite their opponents."

Only the voice of secret spies echoed in the hall.

"Northern border army encircled, but failed to send out, and the remaining forbidden army all died in battle, no one bowed their knees, no one pleaded!"

Secret spy looked up, "The villain has a request!"

How could a secret spy have any reason to make demands in court?

Nian Ru's dead man's face also showed more anger, "Bold!"

Nian Xu looked sad, "Let him talk."

Secret spy said: "The villain wants to join the army!"

Nian Xu nodded, and the secret agent got up to leave, "The villain wants to flatter the Japanese army."

"Let's go!"

"Yes!"

The secret agent resigned, Han Bi went out of duty, and saluted.

"The destruction of five thousand loyal and brave soldiers is the crime of all ministers! Your Majesty, please leave Bianjing."

He wanted to stand out and lead this battle.

"What is Han Qing's crime?" Nian Xu sighed: "This battle must have deterred the Northern Frontier Army, which is of great benefit to the overall situation. I am sad because I think that those loyal and brave men were by my side in the past, but they never comforted me. , less rewards."

Peng Jing said: "Your Majesty, after this battle, the momentum of the northern border army will inevitably be reduced. In this way, Jinzhou and other places should be strictly ordered to defend. As for when the army will attack, I think that when the northern border army is unable to attack for a long time, it will be more aggressive. good."

"It's time for the decisive battle if the master has no merit." Fang Chong also agreed with this opinion.

"Where's Han Qing?" Nian Xu asked.

"Your Majesty, it is not appropriate to let the three states defend to the death." Han Bi said: "In the defensive battle, morale is the most important thing. If the defenders know that they are isolated and helpless, they will eventually collapse one day. In addition, if there is no army to restrain them, the northern border The army will be able to besiege the three states with impunity..."

If the northern border army is allowed to besiege the three states, it will be a matter of time before the city is broken.

And what Han Bi didn't say was, if so, how would the soldiers and civilians of the Southern Zhou Dynasty view this battle?
Oh!
It turned out that Da Zhou was being beaten passively.

Moreover, it was the worst beating!
Nian Xu looked at Fang Chong with complicated eyes, "I can't leave Han Qing by my side, or should I find someone else to go?"

Han Bi shook his head, and said resolutely: "Your Majesty, if the three states are broken, Yingshui will never be able to stop the Northern Army. When the Northern Army is approaching the city, Bianjing... cannot be defended!"

"Why?" Nian Xu asked.

Anyway, Bianjing can be regarded as a strong city, isn't it?

Han Bi was silent.

Nian Xu sighed, "Forget it, that's it, Han Qing will lead the army. But be careful."

As soon as Han Bi left, the court became dominated by Peng Jing and others, and the emperor never felt lonely and worried.

He went to the harem.

The queen is admiring the flowers with Nianzi.

There is a flower business in Bianjing who is willing to sell it to the palace at a low price. The queen is praising the businessman for his loyalty.

"Mother, if anyone outside knows that his flowers are sold to the palace, how many people will rush to buy them!" Nian Ziyue felt that the queen had been in the palace for too long, so long that she had forgotten her nature as a businessman.

"Businessmen can't get up early without profit!"

Nian Xu's voice came.

"His Majesty!"

"Father!"

Nian Xu came over, touched the flowers with his hand, and said with a smile: "Ziyue is more beautiful than flowers, let's see who is lucky enough to take it with her."

Nian Ziyue didn't have the shyness, but just lowered his eyes slightly, and his long eyelashes fluttered, adding a bit of delicacy.

"Your Majesty's complexion is not right." The Queen asked, "But you are not feeling well?"

"Han Bi led the army to set off." Nian Xu looked at the colorful flowers in front of him, but felt melancholy in his heart, "He is the only handsome man in the court who can coordinate the war. He is going..."

"Father is worried about Han Xiang's defeat?" Nian Ziyue raised his eyes, "Actually, in many cases, worrying is useless. It's better to do what you should do and just wait."

"Do your best and obey the destiny, right?" Nian Xu said with a smile.

"Yes." Nian Ziyue nodded seriously.

"I thought so too, but this is a national war." Nian Xu said: "No one expected that Hancheng fell in three days, and the battle report came, and the people in Bianjing were panicked... The people are alright, but those dignitaries want to escape. "

"Your Majesty, can you let it go?" the queen asked.

Nian Xu shook his head and said sarcastically, "I have people guarding the four gates, people can leave, and all the money is left behind."

"How far has it gone?" The queen felt that this decision was wrong.

"The three families left!"

Nian Xu's voice was a little erratic, "Hundreds of years of peace have raised a group of greedy meat eaters!"

In the city of Bianjing, the dignitaries gathered to discuss the battle.

In a mansion, more than a dozen tycoons are sitting in the waterside pavilion.On the artificial lake, a painted boat sails slowly, and there are divas singing on the boat.

The singing comes with the breeze, which is refreshing.

The old man at the head was the descendant of the founding father, while the middle-aged man he attacked was from the clan.

The old man said: "Han Bi led an army of [-] to set off. I dare not say what the battle will be like. However, King Qin would rather go south than Guanzhong and Shu, which shows how determined he is to destroy my Great Zhou. In this battle, Either completely defeat the Northern Border Army, or... just wait for death!"

The middle-aged man took a sip of his drink, "Han Bi is handsome, but he has never fought against the King of Qin. This battle...if we are more cautious, I think the situation can be stabilized."

"The old man said that unless the Northern Frontier Army is defeated, King Qin's desire to destroy the Great Zhou will not die."

"You don't like it?" The middle-aged man looked at the old man.

The old man nodded, "I don't know the art of war, but I know one thing. The King of Qin speaks his mind in the army, and the officials and generals in Chang'an and Northern Xinjiang are loyal. In this way, we can form a joint force. But on Hanbi's side, Peng Jing and others in the court People are staring at him, trying to find something to do with him."

The old man sighed, "Do you still remember Sun Shi's New Deal?"

The crowd nodded.

"I've read the terms of the new policy, and it's pure nonsense to say that it's a policy that harms the people. But why did such a good policy become a policy that harms the people below? Some people made trouble out of it!"

Everyone knows who the old man is talking about.

"The front is fighting, and the back is holding back. No matter how much Han Bi's skills are, it will be in vain. This is what I am most worried about."

"Under the crisis of national subjugation, don't Peng Jing and others know how to take care of the overall situation?" Someone said dissatisfied.

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "In the eyes of those people, what is the overall situation?"

The old man said: "The overall situation in their eyes is their own interests. For their own interests, they... Forget it, what are you talking about?"

The middle-aged man belonged to the clan, and the Da Zhou clan couldn't engage in politics, so they had no scruples. They sneered, "For their own benefit, they would rather destroy Da Zhou."

"Your Majesty may..." Someone had a fierce look in their eyes.

The middle-aged man shook his head, "Behind Peng Jing and the others are... the rich and powerful, and the local power. To be honest, there are people here who belong to their group, right?"

Most of the people present were silent.

"Then what shall we do?" someone asked.

"The old man wants to leave, but His Majesty doesn't allow it." The old man scolded: "This is not allowed, but you have to think of a way! The way is to let Han Bi lead the army across Yingshui. Once Han Bi leaves, the court will It is the world of Peng Jing and others, this court, Cao Teniang's, is full of ghosts and monsters."

"I don't know if Your Majesty regretted not keeping Sun Shi behind."

Thinking of the stubborn and troublesome former Chief Assistant, everyone couldn't help but feel lingering fear.

"If Sun Shi was here, he would definitely be able to suppress Peng Jing and the others at this moment."

……

In the small house, Sun Shi is drying books.

The floor was covered with mats, and the old servant had a bad waist, so he could only help tidy up at the side, and Sun Shi did all the books by himself.

The sun was a bit poisonous, Sun Shi spread out the book, tilted his head violently, a drop of sweat dripped from his face to the side.

"It's okay!" Sun Shi couldn't help smiling happily when he saw that the solitary volume was intact.

"Ah Lang, a guest is here."

Sun Shi stood up straight, and beat his back with his backhand.

The person who came was his chess friend Tan Mao, he hurried in, "Sun Gong Sun Gong, something is wrong!"

"Who died?" Sun Shi asked.

"Yezhou is lost."

"So fast?" Sun Shi leaned over and picked up a volume of books. "How did the court deal with it? That's all, the old man is just an idler now, why ask these questions?"

"Han Bi led the army across Yingshui."

"what?"

Sun Shi stomped his feet, "He is the only civil official in the court who can command the army. If he goes, Peng Jing and others will follow the trend..."

"Ah Lang." The old servant came over, "Here comes a entourage who calls himself Prime Minister Han."

"Let him come."

The visitor brought Han Bi's letter, handed it to Sun Shi, and said, "Ah Lang said that Grandpa Sun enjoys a happy life in the wild, but the situation is critical, so it's time to get up."

"The imperial court is dominated by Peng Jing and others. His Majesty's attitude is ambiguous. How can you stand up?"

Sun Shi opened the letter.

Greetings first, followed by an introduction to the current situation, and finally...

——The old man said that if the northern border army passed Yingshui, Bianjing would not be able to defend. His Majesty asked why, but the old man didn't say.

——Bianjing is a city of prosperity.Wealth can make one's knees weak!

——The old man has gone, and the outcome is unknown, but behind the old man is Bianjing.If he heard the news that the Northern Xinjiang soldiers were approaching Yingshui, then the old man must have died in battle.

Sun Shi squinted and looked outside.

After a long time, I read the letter again.

——The current situation is difficult, His Majesty wants to recall you, but firstly, he can't save face, and secondly, he is worried that you will cause a shock in the court after you go back.

——Sun Gong, the old man said that at this moment of national subjugation, we should abandon the previous suspicions.go!Go to Bianjing and wake up those soft bones.

Sun Shi looked up.

Tears flickered in his eyes.

The entourage saluted, "Alang said, sooner rather than later."

Sun Shi stood blankly under the scorching sun for a long time, then shook his head.

"Old man, old man!"

He turned around and walked slowly into the study.

Bah!
door!
close!
