Chapter 327 The Prince of Beiliang Returns

So, the princes and ministers who had just returned to the mansion to rest for half a day were called into the palace again.

This news was undoubtedly a thunderbolt to the Daxing Dynasty. It came so fast and fiercely that it was hard to guard against. The defender was seriously injured. Naturally, someone should replace him. A minister suggested, "Marquis Wu Cheng has rich experience in combat, and he has fought many battles with the emperor. Although he has not been on the battlefield again these years, his kung fu has never fallen behind, and I think he can take on this important task."

The emperor glanced at the recommended officials and silently wrote them down.

Then someone recommended Duke Ding, and someone recommended Marquis Suyuan.

Wu Chenghou took the initiative to ask for orders, "Your Majesty, if I can lead the army, I will be able to retake Ganzhou within half a month. I am willing to guarantee the head of the item."

The emperor's expression was relaxed, "I still don't know what you are capable of? But I have other arrangements for you."

Marquis Wu Cheng stopped talking immediately, is there another arrangement?Could it be that he was going to escort grain and grass to Youzhou?
Then the ministers in the palace continued to chatter, and after a long while, the emperor finally made a final decision.

"Leave the matter of Ganzhou to Marquis Suyuan, after all, Marquis Suyuan has fought against the Xirong Kingdom for a long time and has rich experience.

Is Su Yuanhou confident that he can win Ganzhou City within half a month? "

Su Yuanhou came out immediately: "Go back to the emperor, I will not disgrace my life."

"Okay, the decree is drawn up, Feng Su Yuanhou is the General Zhengxi, and set off immediately to Ganzhou to recover the lost land. The 15 troops under the former General Liu will be dispatched by the General Zhengxi."

After finishing speaking, the emperor handed over a piece of tiger talisman to Marquis Suyuan, who stepped forward to take the talisman, then saluted and left.

The next step is the matter of food and grass. Half of the food and grass that was originally going to Youzhou had to be sent to Xirong, but there was a disagreement between the people who delivered the food and grass.

The emperor originally wanted to send generals to escort the food and grass, but the prince came out and asked to go to Youzhou to deliver the food. After the prince came out from the princess, he discussed with his staff for a long time. He felt that the proposal of the princess was very good. It would definitely be beneficial for the prince to go to Youzhou Disadvantage, who would have thought that only a few hours had passed, and Xirong was at war with Daxing Dynasty again.

Originally, if Princess Furou had not reconciled with Xiao Shu, Marquis Suyuan should belong to him. Now it would be good if he did not make enemies. Naturally, he should seize the errand of escorting grain and grass to Youzhou, otherwise how would he get closer? The relationship with Uncle Zhan Huang?
The emperor understood the prince's thoughts almost without thinking, but he still persuaded: "The sword and arrow have no eyes on the battlefield, can the prince think clearly?"

The prince said: "I have thought it over clearly. All the generals are fighting on the front line. As the prince, I naturally have to contribute to the great prosperity of the dynasty. The supply of food and grass on the front line is the most important thing. I will definitely be able to provide food and grass in the front line." It was safely transported to Youzhou within the stipulated time.

The emperor thought about it for a long time, and finally said: "Okay, then it's up to you, Duke Ding will go to Youzhou with the prince, and the two of you will set off for the escort officer tomorrow."

Duke Ding hurried out of the queue, saluted to accept the order, and saluted to the prince, and he and the prince both retreated to make preparations.

After the two left, the seventh prince took the initiative to ask for an order to go to Ganzhou to deliver grain and grass. The emperor glanced at the ministers in the palace, and seeing how many people came out to agree, he followed Lao Qi's wishes and arranged for him An experienced veteran, went to Ganzhou to deliver grain and grass.

Xirong and Beiliang went to war against Daxing together, and no one would believe it if there was nothing tricky about it. The emperor was worried. He had raised a batch of food and grass a few days ago, and he had to continue to raise money. Fortunately, the new food came out not long ago. Every family has food in stock, so there is no need to worry about not being able to buy food.

But it is certain that the people will panic.

Especially after Xirong captured Ganzhou City, this matter was almost the focus of discussion among the common people after dinner.

"Prince Xirong is too insignificant. Concubine Xue is his own younger sister. Didn't he think that Concubine Xue's status will be worrying once the battle starts?"

"Hey, in order to complete the great ambition, what is a younger sister..." Even a father can kill, let alone sacrifice a younger sister, the royal family is the place where family affection is least respected.

"Now, the Daxing Dynasty is not going to be easy. The two countries launched a war against us at the same time. I don't know when this war will end?"

"There is definitely no need to worry about this in Youzhou City. Old General Liu was seriously injured by Prince Xirong. Although Su Yuanhou took over the position of Old General Liu, his morale must be low. It may not be a few months. This battle is not going to end so easily."

"My neighbor has a younger son who joins the army in Youzhou, his mother will cry to death in the past two days."

"Who doesn't have a boy who joined the army? There's no point in crying. I just hope that the war will end soon. The people who fight and fight are the only ones who suffer.

I just bought a bag of grain in the morning, and it has increased by three Wen per catty. "

"Hey, I also bought it in the morning. We bought a bag for each of us in the family. Anyway, we have spare money at home, so we can prepare more. We can't suffer from the appointment."

……

The capital of Beiliang.

Inside the palace.

The old emperor really did not expect that his eldest son, who had been missing for many days, would come back by himself. Chu Heyu's explanation for this was that he was dispersed in the chaos, and after leaving the border, he rushed back to the capital by himself because he was penniless. , so he was delayed on the road for some days, as for the prime minister, he didn't meet any of them.

After Chu Heyu returned to the palace, he was naturally picked on by other princes, and he didn't refute it, but the princes who picked on him suffered from the next day, which was still irreversible.

First of all, the fifth prince was injured while sleeping with his own woman, and he has been inhumane ever since.

Then the third prince who came out later was reported for hiding the dragon robe. The emperor didn't believe it, but he still ordered people to inspect the third prince's mansion. As a result, those soldiers not only found the dragon robe, but also found that the third prince had colluded with the minister and received nearly a million dollars. Evidence of two silver.

The emperor was furious when he saw the evidence, and the third prince was thrown into the prison. In fact, 90.00% of the private possession of the dragon robe was fake. The old emperor didn't believe it at all, but he colluded with nearly half of the important officials in the court and accepted bribes , This is what the old emperor can't bear.

Beiliang is not as rich as Daxing, and its annual financial revenue is not half that of Daxing. So much money should have gone into the national treasury, but it ended up in the pockets of the third child, and this is only part of it. There are more I still don't know where he was spent by the third son, how could the emperor let the third prince go?
The third prince was imprisoned in the prince's mansion, and all the assets in the mansion were put into the treasury. In short, the third prince was finished.

In addition, the war between Beiliang and Daxing has also entered a stalemate.

Youzhou City has been handed over to Jiang Chen, and there have been three or four small battles these days. Both sides won or lost, but neither of them lost much. The Beiliang people lost and Jiang Chen did not send anyone to chase them, just in case they were hit by Beiliang. Liang Ren's trick.

At this time, King Zhan is camping outside Raozhou City, and is thinking about how to deal with the Beiliang people in Raozhou City.

There are about [-] Beiliang soldiers in the city, and there are still a steady stream of Beiliang soldiers outside the North City Gate. It is not ordinary difficult to retake Raozhou City.
