Chapter 293 Whoever withdraws is a fool
The post officer touched the back of his neck.

Speaking of it, it was already a hot summer, and there was no wind in the tent, but he just felt that it was chilly behind him.

"Old Marquis," the post officer said anxiously, being stared at by Marquis Yongning, "It's like this, there is an imperial decree in Beijing to be delivered to Feimen Pass, and you, Duke Guo, Lord Marquis, and several generals are required to receive it together." Purpose.

The pedestrian who issued the decree is on the way, and will soon arrive at Feimen Pass.

Yicheng knew that there was a war here, and they all went to the front line. It is impossible for everyone to be in the pass, so he asked the younger one to pass on a message first.

Please invite a few nobles to go back to the customs, and wait for the pedestrians to come together, and then the decree will be issued. "

After the post officer finished speaking, he nodded again emphatically.

He thought he made it up pretty well.

He is just a messenger, just kill him without knowing everything.

When the pedestrians arrived with the imperial decree, how Anbeihou and several generals would deal with Yongninghou and his son and Dingguogong was a matter for their army.

It has nothing to do with such a small post official like him.

Hearing what he said, Marquis Yongning was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed: "I know, after the Yusha pass was captured, the army has been blocked outside the Mingsha pass, and it has not been conquered for a long time. The emperor is waiting in a hurry. Are you here to oversee the army and boost morale?
When Jingzhong receives the latest results, he will be very happy.

Now that the imperial decree is coming, the old man called someone back, received the decree, and drank a bowl of toast wine.

When can the pedestrians arrive?
We still have to fight ahead, and it takes time to go back and forth, so don't delay. "

Hearing what Yongninghou said, the post officer was neither happy nor disliked...

My own nonsense can fool the old Hou Ye, which means that Xiang Shang's head was saved, and he should be happy.

But how could he be really happy?

The inside and outside of Yongning Hou's words are all about attacking, fighting, and fighting.

Will Lord Hou really rebel?
Anyway, he didn't see it at all.

Even, because of doubting the old Hou Ye earlier, his stomach was full of unpleasant taste.

The hesitation leaked a little from his expression, and the post officer didn't dare to tell the truth, so he could only smile sarcastically.

"The message has been delivered." He found an excuse and said, "The younger one will go out first."

The Marquis of Yongning agreed.

After the person left, the smile on his face gradually faded away.

Something happened in Beijing.

The postman's arrival was definitely not an advance notice, he just came to deliver the complete news, but he didn't dare to say anything after asking around and no one was in the pass.

There are post officials on the front feet and pedestrians on the back feet. How could Qin Yin not guess what the imperial decree is about?
You know it well, but you have to pretend not to know it.

Qin Yin stabilized the post officer. At this moment, he had to think again: what is the situation now.

The capital city and Feimenguan are far away from each other.

Naturally, message delivery cannot be timely.

The fastest one is naturally changing horses and people all the way, non-stop day and night, but this kind of consumption is also the largest, and it is generally only used for urgent military reports.

Military newspapers that are not in a hurry will not be in such a hurry. As for ordinary documents, it will take longer.

Pedestrian delivery is relatively slow among them.

The horse can be changed, but the person is still the same person, of course need to rest and adjust.

According to the post officer, the pedestrians will arrive soon, so it can be seen that the news that the post officer has is not sent in the form of the most urgent military report.

Perhaps, there was no rush for that.

The emperor has the advantage in hand, so there is no need to be too eager.

Or, the general situation has already been decided, and it is useless to rush.

What's more, before the pedestrians arrive and the imperial decree arrives, relying on the post officials to report early will have no effect.

Qin Yin strokes his beard, it's hard for him to determine which one it is now.

A messenger was summoned, and Marquis Yongning ordered him to go to Mingsha Pass to inform the others.

In any case, see the trick.

As for the situation in the capital, he had to trust his old wife.

The old woman is so alert, she will definitely be able to escape unscathed.

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Fan returned to Feimen Pass.

"The two deputy generals Cao Lun and Zhen Hao are stationed at Mingsha Pass," Lin Fan reported to the Marquis of Yongning. It will be an hour or two later than me."

Qin Yin nodded.

He was very satisfied with the results of Mingsha Pass.

Of course, it has not reached the level of quick combat, but it is like this in war. When you encounter difficult bones, time is not completely in your own hands.

However, after passing Mingsha Pass, Xizhou City is just around the corner.

Then again, Xizhou is also tough.

"Something may have happened in Beijing," Qin Yin said to Lin Fan in a low voice, "it's not a good thing for pedestrians to pass on the imperial decree."

Lin Fan frowned when he heard this: "Now is not a good time to do it."

Xizhou has not been conquered, and there is no place to stay. With the wisdom of Mrs. Yongning Hou and the eldest princess, they will definitely not make a move at this time.

The only explanation is that the emperor suddenly launched a attack, so everyone in Beijing had to deal with it.

"There's no other news, so it's hard to say what's going on." Qin Yin didn't talk nonsense, and patted Lin Fan on the shoulder, "Wait for pedestrians to announce the decree, try to take the initiative, if you can't stabilize the situation here..."

Lin Fan nodded.

After getting along these days, the generals of Feimenguan have a good understanding of each other's temperament.

Unless the evidence is solid and certain, they may not believe in the theory of "rebellion".

He and Yongninghou still have a chance.

In case they are unable to stabilize, they can only rush out and rush to Mingsha Pass before the news is delivered.

While talking, the rest of the people arrived one after another, and the topic stopped.

After Mao Gu'an arrived, he threw Su Zhi into the cell.

Entering the big tent, seeing everyone was there, General Mao asked, "When will the pedestrians arrive?"

"Hurry up." An Beihou said.

"The news that we have captured Mingsha Pass, is it too late to be delivered?" General Mao asked again, "The emperor's imperial decree, don't you want us to withdraw our troops?"

After saying this, An Beihou and Feng Zhong exchanged a look.

Compared with Mao Gu'an, who has been stationed at the border for many years, the two of them in Beijing can report two groups of people in an instant.

One group insists on the main battle, and the other group always seeks peace.

After the great victory at Yushakou, they had guessed that Jingzhong might have the idea of ​​withdrawing troops, and would "force" Xiliang to pay money with the prisoners in the army.

Therefore, at that time, the old Hou Ye would write another letter in addition to the military report, urging the military department to show the attitude of the soldiers.

Fortunately, after Beijing, there was no intention to withdraw from the army.

But at this moment and at that moment, seeing that they have not made any progress these days, those advocates and peacers may stand up and talk again.

Feng Zhongdao: "I don't want to retreat. I finally defeated Mingsha Pass. How can I retreat?"

"Back off," Mao Gu'an also said, "Even if you are all transferred back to the capital, Feisha and I must continue to attack."

The emperor can't transfer him back to the capital, can he?
Xizhou is close at hand, whoever withdraws is a fool!
