Monument Yangmen

Chapter 596 On the verge of firing (fifth watch! [-] words!)
Shi Shouxin was obviously displeased when he saw Zhao Guangyi, especially when Shi Shouxin mentioned Yanmen Pass, Zhao Guangyi frowned into a word.

Shi Shouxin paused, but still gritted his teeth, bit the bullet and continued.

"After such a series of battles, the soldiers of the imperial army are exhausted. And after the series of battles, the treasury is almost empty. Before that, Your Majesty ordered the expansion of the army by 80.

At present, hundreds of thousands of new troops have entered the camp.They are being trained, but the equipment, horses and other supplies are not yet fully equipped, and the recruits have not yet been trained.

There is no way to send it to the battlefield..."

"Humph!"

Shi Shouxin wanted to continue talking, but Zhao Guangyi snorted coldly and interrupted Shi Shouxin directly.

Zhao Guangyi said with a dark face: "What do the lieutenants and instructors in the forbidden army do? It's been almost half a year, and even the new army hasn't been trained. Also, what are the generals doing? Provide supplies for the new army?"

Shi Shouxin hurriedly lowered his head, and said in a low voice, "I'm terrified."

Zhao Pu wanted to speak, but he pouted and fell silent.

Since the Yang family left Beijing, there have been more things about the Yang family.

Zhao Pu also spoke on many occasions about the Yang family.

In fact, most of the time, he just commented on the Yang family's affairs very pertinently.

But in the eyes of the narrow-minded Zhao Guangyi, this was regarded as speaking for the Yang family.

Although Zhao Guangyi did not take away Zhao Pu's identity as Prime Minister, he revoked Zhao Pu's seat in the court.

This is tantamount to telling the civil and military officials in the court that Zhao Pu has fallen out of favor.

All of a sudden, some people who were secretly dissatisfied with Zhao Pu jumped out and accused Zhao Pu frequently.

This made Zhao Pu very hurt.

He secretly decided that he would keep his mouth shut when encountering the Yang family in the future.

Zhao Pu didn't speak, but Li Hang who was standing behind him spoke.

Li Hang cupped his hands at Zhao Guangyi, and said solemnly: "I agree with Privy Secretary Shi's suggestion. It is not appropriate for me to use weapons at present, and it is better to focus on recuperation.

As Privy Councilor Shi said, the imperial court's successive years of wars have already led to the emptiness of the treasury.

Although Privy Cao seized the wealth accumulated in Dali for a hundred years before.But since His Majesty expanded his army, most of the money has been used to issue military pay.

In addition, His Majesty expanded Jinming Pond and built two side halls outside Jinming Pond.

Money has been spent.

The reason why the equipment of the new army in the forbidden army is not in place is not the reason why the general will serve as a prisoner.

It was because of the vacancy of food and pay in the Ministry of Households that the general prison had not been allocated funds from the Ministry of Households for a long time, so he had no money to build new equipment. "

Zhao Guangyi's face was livid.

Since the Zhao family brothers took the throne, they have never been rich.

The treasury has been empty and half-empty.

Cao Bin managed to make a fortune from Dali, but before he had time to cover the heat, he spent it all.

In other words, Zhao Guangyi was poor for a long time and suddenly rich, and he became poor in an instant before he had time to enjoy it.

Zhao Guangyi looked fiercely at the five important ministers at once.

The meaning in the eyes is self-evident.

Why is the money spent so quickly? Are you corrupted?

"Cough cough..."

Zhao Pu probably knew him better than Zhao Guangyi himself, so after seeing Zhao Guangyi's fierce eyes, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty Qizuo, in order to prepare the army, most officials in the court have not received their salaries for three months..."

Zhao Pu told Zhao Guangyi with the facts that no one was corrupt.

Ever since, Zhao Guangyi seemed a little embarrassed.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became very strange.

After a long silence, Zhao Guangyi asked in a low voice: "Then what if I must send soldiers to replace the state?"

Cao Bin has nothing to do with himself.

The corner of Shi Shouxin's mouth twitched, he shook his head and said, "I feel unwell recently..."

Li Hang cupped his hands and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, absolutely not. There is a saying in the art of war: before the soldiers and horses are moved, the food and grass go first. Right now, the treasury is empty. It is better to wait until the autumn grain collection, when the treasury is full, and then talk about military affairs."

Zhao Guangyi looked at Zhao Pu angrily, and said in a deep voice, "What does Zhao Aiqing think?"

The old god Zhao Pu said: "If your majesty wants to attack Daizhou wholeheartedly, then the old minister will definitely follow him to the death."

Before the words fell, before Zhao Guangyi nodded, Zhao Pu said again: "It's just that your majesty...compared with Daizhou, recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun is the most important thing."

Zhao Guangyi's face turned dark all of a sudden.

Talking about Yanyun sixteen prefectures really hit Zhao Guangyi's weakness.

Compared with the Yang family in Daizhou, Liao is the real confidant.

Now that the national treasury is empty, it is indeed uneconomical to expend national power to conquer the Yang family.

However, if he didn't take advantage of this good opportunity to stab the Yang family in the back, Zhao Guangyi would feel unhappy.

"Bang~"

Zhao Guangyi thumped the dragon case, and shouted with righteous indignation: "Does it mean that if I want to deal with a Yang family, do I still need to worry so much? Do I want to let the Yang family ride on my head?"

"The minister deserves death for his crimes."

The Lord humiliates the minister to death.

Zhao Guangyi's ability to say this is enough to prove the anger in his heart.

However, no matter how angry he was, the five important ministers remained indifferent.

Zhao Guangyi didn't bother to argue with the five important ministers anymore, he waved his hands, "You all step back first."

"I'm waiting to retire."

After the five important officials cupped their hands, they left the Daqing Hall.

In the Daqing Palace, only Zhao Guangyi and a group of palace people were left.

Zhao Guangyi angrily asked Wang Jien at Yujie, "Wang Daban, tell me, is there really nothing I can do about the Yang family?"

Wang Ji'en hesitated for a moment, then said: "My maidservant has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."

Zhao Guangyi glanced at Wang Jien and said lightly, "Let's talk..."

Wang Jien said with a smile: "It's not difficult to clean up the Yang family."

"Oh?"

Zhao Guangyi looked surprised.

Wang Ji'en said with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you remember that last year, Zhang Delin, Marquis of the Imperial Army, moved left to serve as a training envoy for the Fenzhou regiment due to his meritorious service..."

Zhao Guangyi raised his eyebrows and said joyfully: "Fenzhou is close to Daizhou, and there are 1 soldiers and horses under the regiment of Fenzhou..."

Wang Jien said with a smile: "Zhang Delin used to be a person from the Third Prince's Mansion, he doesn't belong to any general family, just suitable..."

"Fantastic! Fantastic!"

"Hehehe... It's my honor to be able to share your majesty's worries."

……

When Zhao Guangyi was secretly planning how to attack the Yang family.

Wang Gui's letter also arrived in the Fuxing Wuyuan of Fuxing Mansion.

It was Lao Yang who received the letter, and he was a little surprised when he suddenly received a letter from Wang Gui.

After carefully reading Wang Gui's letter, Lao Yang frowned tightly.

Lao Yang immediately invited Yang Hong and Mu Yu to discuss matters together.

conference room.

Lao Yang threw the letter to Yang Hong and the other two, "Look, Wang Gui invited me to Xiazhou for a trip, what do you think?"

After Yang Hong read the letter carefully, he handed it to Mu Yu.

Yang Hong pondered: "Shan Zhang, this is an opportunity for us to revive the martial arts academy."

Lao Yang asked with a smile: "How do you say it?"

After reading the letter, Mu Yu continued, "The students of the Fuxing Martial Arts Academy are locked up in the academy for a long time. After a long time, it is inevitable that they will work behind closed doors. It is easy to train people who are just like Zhao Kuo.

So find a suitable opportunity for the students to experience leading troops in combat.Witness the brutality of the battlefield.

When they go to the battlefield in the future, they won't be able to dishonor our name. "

Yang Hong nodded and said with a smile: "I don't have as many ideas as Mu Yu, I just think that the children should see the world. They are a group of children, learn more and see more, so that they will not go to the battlefield in the future, because Panicked and lost his life."

Lao Yang raised his eyebrows, "So, you agree to Wang Gui's invitation and plan to go to Xiazhou?"

"Cough cough..."

Yang Hong coughed in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile: "Shan Zhang, please don't shiver me. The person Wang Gui really wants to invite is you. The reason why he sent you a letter is because he is very interested in this summer. The war in the state is not sure. So I would like to invite you to help prove it.

With you in charge, Wang Gui will have more confidence in his heart. "

Yang Hong's flattery was well done.

Lao Yang sounds very useful.

Lao Yang rubbed his hands together and said: "To be honest, I have been idle for more than a year, and my hands are indeed a little itchy, and I really want to see the methods of the Difficult Army under Li Jiqian's command.

Back then, when the old man was sitting in Linzhou, he also had a few encounters with the Dingnan Army.But they never found a chance to fight.

Lao Yang really wanted to see whether it was Li Jiqian's Dingnan Army or the old man's Volcano Army. "

Yang Hong said with a smile: "Since the head of the mountain has decided to go to Xiazhou, then I will go down and let the children prepare."

Lao Yang nodded and said: "It's better to prepare early. Don't take the new students this year. They are still immature. The students last year, although they are also immature, but they know how to march. Just to take it out for some practice.

This time, the old man led them, and Mu Yu served as the old man's deputy.

Yang Hong, you can stay in the academy and teach new students. "

"Um~"

Yang Hong's expression changed in an instant, and he asked unwillingly, "Why do you want me to stay behind instead of Mu Yu?"

Lao Yang said with disgust: "You Yang Hong's tortoise-like military art, I have long been tired of seeing it. I just took this opportunity to appreciate Mu Yu's military art."

Yang Hong's face was livid, and he said in a low voice, "If you don't go, you won't go..."

Mu Yu said arrogantly: "I will definitely show the mountain chief what I, Mu Yu, are capable of."

Ever since Lao Yang appeared in Fuxing Wuyuan, Mu Yu, who had been suppressed, couldn't hold his head up.

No matter in art of war or martial arts, Mu Yu was overwhelmed by Lao Yang.

This made Mu Yu look aggrieved.

Now that he has the opportunity to show his own strength, Mu Yu is naturally not polite.

Lao Yang decided to go over to take a look at Wang Gui, so he didn't hesitate.

Immediately, let Yang Hong order all the last year's students in the Fuxing Martial Academy, and rush to Xiazhou together.

……

Suizhou.

When Lao Yang rushed to Xiazhou, Zhe Yuxun who invaded Suizhou encountered a tough battle.

Under the leadership of Li Deming, 20 party soldiers and horses entered Suizhou, and met together outside a city called Zichang.

The 20 party troops ran into Zhe Yuxun's Zhejia army, and launched an attack without even saying hello.

20 cavalry, charged frontally, and fought against [-] home troops.

Under the impact of the party's soldiers and horses, the Zhejia army began to retreat frequently.

Dangxiang's cavalry are best at field combat. Under heavy oppression, the Zhejia army seems a little weak.

Zhe Yuxun made a prompt decision. Under the frequent attacks of the Dangxiang army, he led the soldiers and horses of the Zhejia army to occupy the Zichang Wall, and based on the Zichang Wall, he dealt with the Dangxiang cavalry.

Li Deming led the 20 cavalry to besiege the Great Wall.

This sleepiness is three days.

Inside the Great Wall.

Zhe Yuxun, who was clearly defeated, did not seem anxious at all.

It seems that the one who lost the battle was someone else.

On the top of the city, Zhe Yuxun and his youngest son Zhe Weizhi stood side by side. Zhe Yuxun looked at the gangster army outside the city and asked his youngest son, "Weizhi, do you think we will win or lose this battle?"

Zhe Weizhi said with determination on his childish face: "Father, you will definitely win this battle. As long as I can remember, I have never seen you lose."

"Ha ha……"

Zhe Yuxun just laughed, "You have confidence in Dad."

Zhe Yuxun put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "The real outcome of this battle is not with us. It is with Yinzhou."

"Why do you say that?"

Zhe Weizhi frowned and asked.

Zhe Yuxun smiled confidently: "Do you really think that you lost the battle for your father, so you were forced into the Great Wall by the 20 army of the party members?"

Without waiting for Zhewei's answer, Zhe Yuxun asked and answered by himself, "When Dangxiang's army marched to Suizhou, my father had already got the news. And four days ago, my father got the wild beggars to prepare for the trip. Stick to the news of Xiazhou.

There must be a terrifying battle between Ye Qiqianbo and Li Jiqian defending Xiazhou.

The main forces of both sides are at the borders of Yinzhou and Xiazhou.

Although there are 20 Dangxiang troops here, they are not the real main force of the Dangxiang.

They were all improvised, and in terms of combat effectiveness, they weren't very tyrannical.

If the father really wanted to fight them to the death, he might not have no chance of winning.

However, if the two sides fight hard, we may not be able to reap benefits.

Therefore, as a father, he swindled and lost to the party members, and withdrew his troops and entered the Zi Great Wall.

Now that the father has entered the city, the party members have nothing to do with the father.

As a father, you only need to hold back these party members, wait for the work at leisure, and wait for the news of the decisive battle in Yinzhou.

In the battle of Yinzhou, if the wild beggars won the battle, the 20 troops outside the city would be destroyed without attack.

In the Battle of Yinzhou, Ruo Yeqiganbo was defeated, so we broke out and withdrew our troops back to the camp. "

Zhe Weizhi looked at Zhe Yuxun with dull eyes, and said in amazement: "Father, can we still fight like this?"

Zhe Yuxun laughed loudly and said: "Otherwise? Fight head-to-head with the enemy? There are not enough of us to fight with others. Let's go to the army and plan, the battle that can be won with wisdom, never win with strength."

Zhe Weizhi looked at Zhe Yuxun adoringly, "Father, you are so amazing."

Zhe Yuxun looked in the direction of Yinzhou and said with emotion: "Everything depends on the success or failure of the battle of Yinzhou."

……

Yinzhou.

Li Jiqian led an army of 26 and entered the territory of Yinzhou.

Li Jipeng, the leader of the Dingnan Army, has long been waiting at the border of Yinzhou.

When he heard the scout report that Li Jiqian had arrived, he personally rushed ten miles away to greet him.

Li Jiqian rode a maroon horse, one in front, and behind him, followed by a dense army of party members.

After seeing Li Jiqian, Li Jipeng jumped off his horse and shouted in surprise, "Brother, you are finally here."

"Cough cough..."

"Eh... Li Jipeng, the Dingnan army, has seen my lord."

Sitting on the horseback, Li Jiqian nodded slowly and asked, "How is the battle going?"
