The rise of the prince

Chapter 767

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather started to turn cold. Every time the continuous autumn rain fell, the weather would get a little colder. On the contrary, Li Xingzhou's affairs became more and more heated.

The morning exercise had to be cut down. After four or five years of persistent exercise, Tieshankou, shaking the big gun and adding physical training, his body is now as strong as a cow, with endurance, toughness, and muscle strength far exceeding ordinary people.

Now he is no longer the weak son of four years ago, he is indeed like a general who charged into battle, only this kind of body can withstand what he does, there are examples in history of collapse due to poor health before starting a business. They are everywhere, and Li Xingzhou doesn't want to follow in their footsteps.

In addition, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shiyu was also pregnant. Shiyu's pregnancy made many people very happy. In the eyes of the ancients, there are three unfilial behaviors. It is the greatest virtue to have no offspring. Flourishness is the greatest virtue of a leader.

After all, today is not a future generation. If Li Xingzhou dies, only his heirs can stabilize the regime he left behind. If he has no heirs, then follow him desperately. The ministers and generals who stand by him, who will get the credit for them? Guaranteed, who will give them their treatment?All their efforts will be in vain.

So when they heard that Shiyu was also pregnant, many people were delighted from ear to ear.

However, Shiyu's pregnancy has had the greatest impact on the palace. Shiyu is the prime minister's affairs in the palace. She is pregnant, and many things must be temporarily replaced by someone.

Today, the size of the palace is no joke. The huge business network and intelligence network spread along the two major arteries of the great river, and can be reached from all over the country.

Fortunately, Fang Xin has gradually emerged at this time, reducing a lot of pressure, but when it comes to Fang Xin.
Li Xingzhou also frowned a little. Since the last time the people from the Ministry of Rites almost brought students to block him at the ferry, he knew that someone in the palace had tipped off the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

But no one knows, but if you think rationally, Fang Xin is very suspicious. He is a latecomer and an old man of the prince. Yan Gu, Yan Shen, Shi Yu, and Yan Kun have all told him about this in private, and they all I suspected Fang Xin, but Li Xingzhou suppressed it.

Firstly, he really appreciates Fang Xin's talent, and secondly, he is willing to believe in Fang Xin.

But now at this critical juncture, Shiyu may not be in charge for a while, and he has to seriously consider whether to delegate power to Fang Xin.

The affairs of the palace are a bit gloomy, but outside the palace, the entire Jing Kingdom has been moving like a snake that continues to move slowly. The food and grass in the southern states are slowly being transported northward by water, and a large number of people are also gathering in the direction of the capital.

However, Jingguo's huge water transport volume, which has been turned over countless times in the past few years, has concealed this. It seems that there are not many more ships than in the past. In fact, food, grass, soldiers and horses are all converging to the north.

In the backyard of the palace, the generals of the new army, Wei Yubai, Shen Lin, Yan Shen, Di Zhi and others, the generals of the Imperial Army Yang Hongzhao, Zhao Guanghua, Yang Ye, the prefect of Taiyuan Prefecture who was still staying in Beijing, Zhe Weizhong, the governor of the Yongan Army, Invited Zhong Daoyu, Yelu Dashi, king of Liao Dynasty in Jingguo.

In addition, Degong, He Zhao, Xue Fang, Tang Zhouwei, Bao Zheng and others were all present.

Some of them really want to make suggestions and share the country's worries, while others simply enjoy the atmosphere of expressing their opinions.

"My lord, according to the current progress, the grain and grass can be transported to Bazhou, Xiongzhou, and Dingzhou this winter." Shen Lin said excitedly, "This is many times faster than the previous grain transportation."

For this large-scale Northern Expedition, the amount of food to be prepared was unprecedented. According to past experience, it was thought that it would be transported until the next year or the next year. As a result, the Wangfu's water and land firepower was fully deployed, and it could be completed this winter.

Even Li Xingzhou was a little unexpected.

"Will there be too much movement to alert the Jin people?" Li Xingzhou was a little worried.

"This subordinate can't tell." Shen Lin shook his head, he didn't have much experience in this area.

Yang Hongzhao took a sip of his tea, he was very seasoned and experienced, "It's impossible for the Jin people not to get wind of such a large-scale dispatch of grain and grass.

But my country, Jingguo, had a garrison in Bazhou in previous years, and this year it pushed it to the area of ​​​​Yanshan Mansion. It is said that the grain and grass are dispatched to the army of Yanshan Mansion, or we should not be sneaky, store food and grass in Yanshan Mansion, and then build the city. Taking risks, he made a posture of defending the Jin army in Yanshan Mansion. "

"This fake trick is really well done." Li Xingzhou turned his head and said to Yang Hongzhao approvingly: "General Yang is worthy of his experience. Your words made me suddenly enlightened. Instead of playing with them in some ostentatious tricks, it is better to come directly to Yangmou. Let us stockpile our army of food and grass in Yanshan Mansion, and let the Jin people guess whether to fight or not."

"His Royal Highness congratulates you." "If there is another way to transport it to Yanshan Mansion, you can take the Bohai Sea and then enter the Haihe River to the Yanshan City, which will save time and effort." Di Zhi expressed his opinion.

"Is that the waterway that General Di took to capture Yanshan Mansion?" Zhong Daoyu rarely interjected.

Di Zhi nodded again and again, Li Xingzhou took the map and looked at it carefully, then asked the size of the boat transporting the grain and grass, and then he made a final decision and went to the Haihe Passage.

Then he said: "Let's discuss the next thing. When the fighting starts in the east, the west of Taihang Mountain will attack at the same time. The battle in the west will be in charge of Yang Ye and Zhe Weizhong. I will allow them to play by ear.

But the strategy, the purpose of the operation, and the logistical support of the court must be specified! "

As soon as the voice fell, everyone began to scramble to express their opinions and opinions in an instant.

"Don't worry, come one by one, Bao Zheng, remember what each of them said clearly, don't make those fancy decorations."

After falling into the discussion, Degong and He Zhao took a half step back in embarrassment. The two looked at each other speechlessly, and then smiled helplessly. After all, they are civil servants and do not understand military affairs. At this time, they often cannot intervene.

However, Degong saw a group of old and young generals from the imperial court, from his own country and other countries, and all kinds of generals circled around Li Xingzhou.

"It's said that Duke Zhou spit and nourished the world to return to his heart, but this kid seems to have done nothing and the world returned to his heart. Look at these people, isn't it true that Jingguo has everyone in Jingguo?" De Gong sighed.

He Zhao also nodded: "It's no wonder he was able to abduct the old man's daughter."

"Old thief, you are only making trouble on the surface, and you must be happy in your heart to save face for yourself."

"Huh..." He Zhao snorted unhappily, "What about your granddaughter, she tried to change her family back then, but now she doesn't talk anymore."

"Hmph!" The two of them looked at each other in unison, then brushed off their sleeves, silent.

After a long time, He Zhao spoke first: "Mr. De, you and I are afraid that the world will be divided."

"Anyway, the old man is half buried in the ground. I wish I could have a hand in it. This life is not in vain."

"If His Highness is such a wise master, we shouldn't block his way," He Zhao said abruptly.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm talking about your son." He Zhao was stern and unselfish, and he didn't dare to say anything. After he finished speaking, he didn't say much: "If it were me, I would do it myself."

Degong opened his mouth, his face darkened, and he didn't say a word. The people over there were still discussing and didn't pay attention to the changes here.
