Chapter 475 Liang Ji: This is half an emperor
At Lu Sheng's signal, the emperor issued an edict to announce the great victory of Gaozhou to the world.

This move seemed to be to promote Chen Mo's achievements to the world, but Lu Sheng also had his own intentions.

In this edict, Lu Sheng emphasized that Chen Mo was ordered by the imperial court to send troops to resist Jin Xia.

Although this is suspected of putting gold on the face of the imperial court, from the side, the imperial court can use this matter to increase its own sense of presence and prestige.

At least in the eyes of the common people who didn't understand, they felt that Chen Mo was following the orders of the court.

Secondly, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the world was talking a lot. Taking advantage of the great victory in Gaozhou, he could show the world that the reign name of Yong'an was auspicious, and it was the new emperor's blessing that Chen Mo could win this battle.

In short, he promoted Chen Mo in order to increase the influence of the imperial court.

After the court meeting, Lu Sheng called all his trusted confidants to his house to discuss matters.

Huicheng couldn't wait and asked on the spot: "Xiangguo, as far as I know, Chen Mo needs to guard against King Huai and Longyou. There are not many troops that can be mobilized to resist Jin Xia, and Jin Xia is coming fiercely and has many soldiers." Guang and many cavalry, how did he defeat the Jin Xia army on the plain? "

This point was also what puzzled Lu Sheng. The victory report handed over by Chen Mo only said how many people in the Jinxia army were killed and which generals were killed, but it did not tell the details of the war, such as how it was won.

"The good news sent by Chen Mo only had results, no process, and he didn't even say how many troops he sent." Lu Sheng sat down and took a sip of tea, but his brows had not relaxed since the end of the court meeting.

And what Luo Qingyang said was the reason why Lu Sheng kept frowning.

The reason why Lu Sheng did this was that he believed that Chen Mo's strength could not compete with Jin Xia's, and he could at most resist Jin Xia's army outside Qingzhou.

Luo Qingyang is the person Lu Sheng trusts the most, and he has always helped Lu Sheng make suggestions. The previous mutiny was also planned by Luo Qingyang.

That was nearly half of the Song Dynasty.

But he never expected that Chen Mo not only won the battle, but also severely damaged the enemy.

Luo Qingyang, Lu Sheng's staff, said in a deep voice.

The most important thing is that Chen Mo can still control it legitimately.

"I have long heard that the Marquis of Pingting County was ambitious and unwilling to be subordinate to others. He first broke away from the Tianshi Army and established his own business. Then he secretly robbed Linzhou and finally Huaizhou without asking the imperial court for orders. In the spring of this year, he also sent troops to Jiangnan. All these actions have great intentions, and now they have severely damaged the Jin Xia army. If he really drives these barbarians out of the north, then half of the country will fall into his hands, and we have to guard against it. "

"Luonan and Qingzhou are thousands of miles apart. It's still too early to talk about defense now, and there is no way to defend it. The top priority is to capture Xiliang as soon as possible and expand our own territory." Lu Sheng frowned.

This is simply unbelievable. Has Chen Mo grown to this point?
What worried Lu Sheng the most was that he didn't know how Chen Mo defeated the Jin Xia Army.

After all, the situation at the time was that Chen Mo had few soldiers, few generals, and no one to help him, so the hope of victory was really slim.

At that time, Lu Sheng was still thinking that this Jinxia invasion could take advantage of the situation to reduce Chen Mo's strength and reduce his threat to the world in the future.

According to the victory report, a total of more than 20,000 Jinxia army infantry and cavalry were killed.

If you don't know, you can't be prepared. If one day he and Chen Mo come face to face, it will be difficult to resist.

Because Lu Sheng originally issued an edict in the name of the emperor, allowing Chen Mo to act expediently in the north.

If Chen Mo really drives Jin Xia out of the north, then Chen Mo's power can also take the opportunity to control the entire north. By then, the entire north of the Huaihe River will be Chen Mo's sphere of influence.

Luo Qingyang sighed helplessly. Now that Chen Mo has a lot of wings, it is really difficult to guard against him. The only way is to expand his strength.

Luo Qingyang said: "Half of King Chong's troops are on the right side of Longyou. King Anping is as timid as a mouse. Although Yang Xian is close to us, he has his own affairs to deal with. King Huai himself is impatient. Chen Mo is beyond his reach in Gaozhou. , it is a great opportunity given by God for us to send troops to Xiliang at this time."

Lu Sheng nodded and immediately ordered: "Huicheng." "The general is here." Huicheng responded respectfully.

"Immediately send people from Qing County and Dongping City to recruit grain and grass, start to organize the army, and send troops to Xiliang as soon as possible."

"promise."

……

The Queen Mother's palace.

Liang Ji is wearing a blue palace dress embellished with plum blossoms. She has a plump figure. She is lying on her side on the soft couch, holding her cheeks with her hands. She is taking a nap. On top of the beautiful jade beauty, her charming and plump aura gently flows. Overflowing.

Suddenly a bell rang outside, causing her to stop her nap.

Her plump face jumped. If she remembered correctly, the bell was the sound of triumph, something she hadn't heard for a long time.

She quickly called the serving maid and asked her to inquire about it.

Soon, the palace maid came in cheering: "The Queen Mother, good news, good news, the battle in the north was won. The captain won the first battle and cut off the enemy's head and presented it to Your Majesty."

As soon as these words came out, Liang Ji froze on the spot, got down from the soft couch, and asked quickly: "Tell me what's going on?"

The palace maid quickly told Liang Ji what she had learned.

As a result, as soon as they finished speaking, the sound of victory sounded again outside.

"Another good news?" Liang Ji was surprised and had to ask the serving maid to inquire again.

Not long after, the palace maid came back and said: "The Queen Mother, it is said that after the Taiwei won the first battle and defeated the Jinxia Barbarians, he severely wounded the Jinxia Barbarians in Yao'er City the next day and killed the enemy's infantry and cavalry. More than 20,000. The Taiwei also shot and killed an important figure in the enemy army, who was said to be the nephew of the enemy commander. His head was cut off and put in a box and presented to His Majesty. "

Hearing this, Liang Ji couldn't help but blush a little, which was caused by excitement. After all, she was also a citizen of the Song Dynasty and was once the queen of the world. She couldn't help but feel happy when she heard such good news that had severely defeated foreign enemies.

But thinking about Liang Xuan, Liang Ji quickly suppressed her excitement, moved her lips and said, "This Marquis of Pingting County is so capable."

Isn't it?

In just a few years, he was born as a commoner in the countryside. He first became a rebel in the Heavenly Master Army, then less than a year later, he became General Xuanwei of the imperial court, then General of the Conquest of the West, and finally he was granted the title of County Marquis and the official title of Queen Mother. Lieutenant.

It can be said that this is the end point that a minister wants to reach throughout his life.

But Chen Mo had reached this point at a young age.

The young prince is very powerful.

If she remembered correctly, the imperial court gave Chen Mo the right to act expediently in the north.

Now, after winning the first battle and then suffering heavy losses, if the Jin Xia barbarians were driven out of the Song Dynasty in the end, they might even be made Dukes of the country.

No, I'm afraid it's not the Duke of the country.

But he is half an emperor.
