Chapter 451 King Huai: God-given opportunity

"What are you doing in such a panic and yelling? Don't you know that the prince is recuperating and resting?" Mrs. Hui scolded the staff who broke in.

The originally anxious staff suddenly became speechless when they heard Mrs. Hui's scolding, and looked at Prince Huai on the bed.

King Huai glared at Mrs. Hui and said, "Help me get up."

Mrs. Hui was just about to help him, but King Huai directly told him not to touch him. Instead, he asked the maid to help him sit up.

Mrs. Hui felt aggrieved. She originally wanted to hear what the big deal was, but King Huai directly told her to stand down.

This made Mrs. Hui feel aggrieved and wanted to cry, but she did not dare to lose her temper with King Huai and retreated dissatisfied.

After Mrs. Hui left, King Huai asked: "What big thing happened?"

After being scolded by Mrs. Hui just now, the staff became less anxious and said in a deep voice: "Back to the prince, Jin Xia has invaded and captured Youzhou. It has reached Beidi, and it won't be long before they can reach Qingzhou." ”

After saying that, the staff looked anxious again.

But sometimes, the stance still has to be right.

"No, you absolutely must not." After hearing this, the staff tried their best to dissuade them, saying: "Jinxia just destroyed Gaoliao, and today's Jinxia can be said to be a ferocious military force. I believe the prince must have heard about it. Since ancient times, foreign races in the north, Who doesn't covet the thousands of miles of land in Zhongzhou? If Chen Mo is defeated, Jin Xia will definitely move south, and how many people will suffer from Jin Xia.

But he underestimated King Huai's hatred for Chen Mo.

The result was as he had guessed. King Huai said: "Jin Xia is coming fiercely. In order to protect Qingzhou, Chen Mo will definitely send troops to resist. Huaizhou's troops and horses will definitely be mobilized by then. When Chen Mo and Jin Xia fight, At that time, we can take the opportunity to send troops to Huaizhou and recapture Huaizhou. "

But King Huai didn't think so anymore.

He could help King Huai fight for the world, or even usurp the throne.

For the current King Huai, Chen Mo is his number one enemy.

For him who has feelings for his family and country, he would naturally be discouraged.

Therefore, after hearing the news from his staff, King Huai laughed heartily and suddenly became more energetic: "God helps me, God helps me."

Not only that, if the prince takes action against Chen Mo when he is fighting against foreign enemies, and the news spreads, the world will laugh at him. "

Even if he doesn't help, he can't stab Chen Mo in the back when he's dealing with foreign enemies. Wouldn't this be helping the foreign enemies from the side and weakening his ability to fight against them? This is unwise.

No matter how hateful Chen Mo is, he is still from the Song Dynasty, but Jin Xia is a foreigner.

Even though he is seeking refuge with King Huai and working for King Huai, he still has deep feelings for his family and country in his heart. What kind of internal chaos is our own business, but now that foreign enemies are invading, naturally we must unite to deal with the outside world. .

In the opinion of the staff, in the current situation, we should first put aside personal grudges and unanimously expel foreign enemies.

"Your Majesty, what do you want?" The staff member's expression changed, as if he had guessed what Prince Huai was going to do.

But the next second, King Huai said: "I finally have a chance to take back Huaizhou."

"Your Majesty." The staff frowned when they saw Prince Huai suddenly laughing wildly, thinking that Prince Huai was ill.

"When Chen Mo is eliminated, I will send troops to fight against the foreign enemies." A trace of resentment flashed in King Huai's eyes.

The hatred for seizing territory and the hatred for seizing his wife, this time he must avenge his shame.

In addition, Huaizhou is too important to him, and it is also the choke point to the south of the Yangtze River. If Huaizhou is not recaptured, although there is no problem now, in the future, relying on Fengzhou alone, he will continue to The army cannot afford it. "Your Majesty, think twice. General Chu Ce is still in Longyou. Even if Chen Mo sends troops to fight against Jin Xia, he still has an alliance with Shu Mansion and Xiliang. He can't take back Fengzhou's remaining troops and horses alone. Huaizhou, besides, the morale of the whole army is low now."

"No need to say any more." King Huai interrupted his staff, directly lifted the quilt and got off the bed, saying: "This is a God-given opportunity. If we don't seize the opportunity, when will Huaizhou be taken back? I have made up my mind, you don't have to Please advise again.”

"My lord."

"That's enough." King Huai shouted and immediately ordered: "Ask everyone to come to the study to discuss matters, and send a message to Chu Ce, asking him to bring his troops back immediately."

……

Chongzhou.

King Chong was discussing the matter of Longyou with a group of staff and generals.

The latest news from Longyou is that Dongyou Kingdom is currently controlled by Jin Xia. Their spies have detected the footprints of Jin Xia soldiers on the border of Longyou.

This also shows that Jin Xia is going to invade the Song Dynasty again.

Yue Ruyan also asked King Chong to increase his troops again.

Chen Mo actually helped King Chong. After Liang Xuan was beheaded, the Liang family lost an arm. Although King Chong was married to the Liang family, he still took the opportunity to control the entire Hexi Province in the face of interests. The expansion of territory also allowed King Chong to continue to recruit troops.

Of course, compared with King Huai and Chen Mo, King Chong appears to be extremely low-key, the kind who develops secretly.

After King Huai lost the support of Huaizhou and the Xiao family, King Chong undoubtedly became the most powerful vassal king in the Song Dynasty.

King Chong also wanted to be the boss, so in King Chong's heart, he already regarded Yuezhi as his younger brother. Now that his younger brother came to ask for help, the boss naturally had to summon his team to discuss it.

"Now Jin Xia is watching with eager eyes, Longyou is in turmoil, and there are ups and downs. If the prince does nothing, when Longyou is annexed by Jin Xia, there are only two ways in front of Jin Xia. One is to go out of Longyou to seize Yuzhou; And they are coming towards us, and when the time comes, we can only face the powerful enemy and be passive." An aide stepped forward and handed over his hands, saying:
"Your Majesty, Jin Xia was a powerful enemy of our Song Dynasty four hundred years ago. At that time, Emperor Taizu rode his horse to the north, drank from the vast sea, sealed Qianlang Mountain, and captured the enemy's Khan alive. What a scene it was. Now that Jin Xia is attacking our Song Dynasty again, if the prince can repel it, he will be able to restore the glory of our Song Dynasty and be as worthy as Emperor Taizu and be respected by the people of the world. "

Qianlang Mountain, the holy mountain of Jinxia.

At that time, Emperor Taizu led his troops directly to Qianlang Mountain and performed sacrifices on the mountain.

As a descendant of Emperor Taizu, no descendant would want to be like Emperor Taizu. The words of his subordinates immediately made King Chong feel itchy.

Jinxia is not the Seven Kingdoms of Xirong. If we really drive them out, it will be a big achievement.

Not only King Chong, but also his generals were eager to move.

at this time.

"Report——"

The soldiers shouted from outside the hall.

Everyone was silent and quickly turned to look outside the hall.

King Chong frowned slightly, sat up a little straighter, and raised his hand slightly: "Speak."

The soldiers quickly entered the hall and said urgently after entering: "Report - urgent report from the North, Jin Xia invaded from Youzhou, and it has been overwhelming all the way, and now it has reached Gaozhou."
