Chapter 1013 Offensive and defensive transformation!

In the Hall of Xiude, His Majesty the Emperor reluctantly sat up. After drinking a bowl of gruel, he lost his appetite and sat silently on the dragon chair.

At this time, he had lost nearly twenty catties compared to half a year ago.

The great eunuch Liu Yi came in from the outside with a bowl of soup, and saw the hunched figure sitting on the emperor's seat from a distance, his eyes were sore, and he almost cried out.

This year is the 34th anniversary of Yong Peng.

The Northern Qi emperor who had reigned for more than 30 years was old after all.

He wiped away his tears, took the medicine over, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this is the prescription prescribed by the imperial guards. It has been brewing for two hours. You can enter it..."

Emperor Yongping raised his head and glanced at Liu Yi, then stretched out his hand to take the bowl of soup that was so thick that it turned black and extremely bitter, and drank it little by little without hesitation.

At this time, his will to survive was very tenacious.

Because the current Daqi can be said to be a feather in the ground, and many things need to be dealt with by the emperor.

After drinking the bowl of medicine, Emperor Yongping wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and looked at Liu Yi: "What did the imperial doctor say?"

The emperor's voice was hoarse: "How much time do I have?"

Liu Yi's eyes turned red, and he lowered his head and said: "Go back to the emperor, the imperial doctor said that if you take care of yourself properly and use medicine stones to heal you, you will still have one year to live..."

Emperor Yongping was startled when he heard the words, and then laughed at himself: "Then what if the treatment is not proper?"

Liu Yi knelt on the ground and cried, "The imperial doctor said, your body is like a candle in the wind, a lamp in the rain..."

Emperor Yongping fell silent.

What this means is that he may kick his legs at any time, and maybe he will not be able to open his eyes next time if he closes his eyes this time.

The old emperor didn't speak for a long time, and after a long time, he said slowly: "Go and pass that King Qi came to see me."

"Yes."

A moment later, King Qi Zhaoli, who had been kneeling outside for three days, limped in. After seeing the emperor, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, kowtowed, and said in a choked voice, "Father..."

"You finally woke up, my child has been praying to heaven day and night for the past few days..."

The emperor said slowly, expressionless: "I heard that you knelt outside for three whole days."

King Qi knelt down on the ground, weeping and said: "My child is afraid that something will happen to you, so I dare not leave an inch."

Seeing his appearance like this, the old emperor couldn't help but soften again.

When a person gets old, his heart gradually softens.

He sighed, "Have you not eaten for three days?"

"The child only hopes to move the sky with sincerity, but dare not eat..."

Emperor Yongping was silent again.

Being in the emperor's house, he can understand the world better than anyone else.

He knew very well in his heart that the third son in front of him might not be filial to him, but might be the most thoughtful prince.

From a very early age, King Qi tried to show his pure filial piety in front of his father in order to seize the throne.

His people and thoughts are enough, and if Daqi is in its prime, then Zhao Li will be a very qualified emperor and an excellent ruler of success.

But now, Daqi is in deep crisis.

At this time, it is not enough to have the scheming of the city government alone, what is more important is to have means.

In comparison, although the other son's intentions are a bit crooked, his methods are definitely ruthless...

Thinking of this, the emperor looked at Zhao Li again, and asked, "During the past few days when I fell into a coma, what's going on in the court?"

King Qi hesitated for a moment, then bowed his head and said, "Back to father, there are people in Beijing who use the so-called Five Immortals to disrupt the government. My son has made people ban the Five Immortals, and arrested a group of people who spread rumors and make trouble. The apoplexy is already clear..."

Emperor Yongping nodded silently, and asked, "Have you found out who did it?"

Zhao Li lowered his head, gritted his teeth and shook his head: "My son...haven't found it yet."

"it is good."

Emperor Yongping nodded silently, waved his hand and said, "I'm tired, you can retreat."

King Qi bowed his head respectfully, turned around and retreated.

The eunuch Liu Yi sent him out.

Emperor Yongping sat alone on the throne, murmuring: "What a king of benevolence..."

"It's just that Ren is not the time..."

When Eunuch Liu came back, Emperor Yongping's voice was hoarse: "Go and call the fourth."

Liu Yi lowered his head.

"Slave, let's go..."

……

Half an hour later, in the Chunfeng Building of Yandu, several eunuchs finally found His Royal Highness King Wei, who was talking with someone in the elegant room of the Chunfeng Building.

After the attendants of King Wei's mansion reminded him that someone was coming from the palace, His Royal Highness stood up reluctantly, and cupped his hands at the man opposite him, "Brother, what kind of character is that third brother? Clear, sweet-talking, insidious and cunning..."

"Now he looks like a benevolent monarch, and he has deceived his father. After he ascends the throne, he doesn't know what kind of face he will have!"

"Brother, you must think carefully about what I told you..."

Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man in his early thirties, his face was watery at the moment, he closed his eyes and said, "Fourth brother, you are too courageous..."

"I'm not very courageous, how can I succeed?"

Zhao Kai bowed his head and saluted, "Little brother has gone to the palace, and after he gets away, he will come to look for elder brother..."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and accompanied by the palace servants, got into the sedan chair and went straight to the deep palace.

At this time, the bright face of Yandu City was as flat as mirror water.

But under the calm water, there is already a raging undercurrent!
………………

Xuzhou City, Zhizhou Yamen.

Master Shen was sitting in his study, and in front of him were Su Ding and Ling Su.

At this moment, the two generals had strange expressions on their faces.

Because they still haven't figured out why Xue Wei suddenly broke through and left Xuzhou.

However, thinking that Shen Yi was also in Ximen that day, and that Xue Wei's temperament could not betray the Huai'an army, they suppressed their curiosity and did not ask any questions.

Shen Yi lowered his head and took a sip of tea, glanced at the two of them, and said, "I know what you are thinking, Xue Wei was the one who let him break out of the siege, and at this moment, he should be almost in Suqian."

Ling Su lowered his head and said, "The subordinates didn't question Mr. Shen's intentions, but they were a little surprised when it happened so suddenly."

Shen Yi squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "We have been trapped and beaten in Xuzhou City, and it has been almost two months."

"It's impossible to be beaten like this forever."

Speaking of this, Master Shen reached out and knocked on the table, and said lightly: "Do the math, since Hongde formed the Huai'an Army in August 11, to the beginning of two years now, we have been passively beaten, although in it I took a lot of advantage, but never took the initiative to attack."

"This situation will change completely in the future."

Master Shen lowered his brows and said, "From now on, it will be our Great Chen Wangshi who will go north to the north to recover the lost ground, instead of blindly defending."

"Xue Wei leading troops out of the city is the first step."

Shen Yi took out a map from his drawer, spread it on the table, then pointed to Suqian on the map, and Haizhou to the east, and said: "The 1 people of the Huaihe Navy are about to arrive in Suqian, and the Huai'an to the east Almost all of the [-] imperial troops have crossed the Huai River."

"The strength of our Huai'an army has almost doubled."

Master Shen paused, and said: "With Xuzhou City as the core, try to divide the Southern Conscript Army into several small pieces, and then divide and attack them."

Ling Su was stunned, and asked, "How does Mr. Shen want to divide it?"

"It's simple."

Master Shen said: "Let Xue Wei and the imperial army fight guerrillas outside Xuzhou City. If the Qi people divide their troops to rescue, we can take the initiative in Xuzhou."

"vice versa."

Su Ding frowned and said: "Duke Shen, Qi army has more troops than us, even if they are divided into three parts, they will still beat us."

"A city of Xuzhou must hold at least 10 of them."

With a calm face, Shen Yi said, "Besides, I can manage the Huaihe Navy in the south."

"Forbidden Army, it is not impossible to increase troops."

What Shen Yi said was actually very conservative.

Because Emperor Hongde in Jiankang City is already ready for a big battle, as long as Shen Yi gives him an answer, or the Northern Qi Emperor kicks his legs, the Southern Chen army will immediately march north.

And Shen Yi's busy work in Xuzhou now is just to reduce the vitality of Qi people and reduce the difficulty of the Northern Expedition.

Having said that, he looked at his two chief generals and tapped on the table lightly.

"You two have to remember one thing."

"Soon, offense and defense will change shape!"
