Chapter 503 King Huai: Let’s fight

King Huai's character was distorted at this moment.

As a member of the royal family, it should be a happy thing for the foreign tribes to be defeated and driven out of the Song Dynasty, but King Huai was not happy at all. He didn't even want the foreign tribes in the north to be driven out. Instead, he wanted Chen Mo to succeed If you lose, it is best to lose both sides with the foreign race.

These days, his few belief support is to hope that Chen Mo will be defeated, and at worst, he will be trapped in a hard battle, which will prolong the war in the north indefinitely, so that he will have enough time to take back Huaizhou.

But now, the war in the north has calmed down, and if we are fast, we will be able to come back before the end of the year.

In less than a month, can he capture Huaizhou?

Prince Huai's face was solemn at the moment, his eyes were a little dull, and he was speechless for a while. The most important thing was that he felt a little dizzy in his head.

He held the desk in front of him with both hands, trying his best not to fall down, and cried sadly: "The sky has no eyes, the sky has no eyes!"

Gan Yao was also there, and his expression wasn't much better at the moment.

Because after King Huai made Mrs. Gan's son his heir apparent, the Gan family was completely tied to King Huai.

King Huai didn't even think about asking for a second solution. Chen Mo had a deep hatred for him, and now he asked him to take the initiative to humiliate himself and sue for peace. He didn't know how much ridicule he would suffer.

King Huai hesitated.

"This"

If it takes two or three months, it will be about the same.

"The first method is to cede territory and pay compensation for peace. Although the war in the north has been calmed down, the situation in Yuzhou is not optimistic. As long as we are sincere, Chen Mo may not agree. But after this, we can only survive." Wufushengdao.

King Huai also looked at the fifth Fusheng with a look of expectation on his face.

In less than a month, how could it be possible to capture Huaizhou with the remaining troops in Fengzhou? Especially now that we have entered the cold winter.

"Attack Huaizhou immediately and capture Huaizhou before Chen Mo comes back. However, there is little hope of success with this method." Fifth Fusheng said.

Wu Fusheng held out three fingers: "Less than 30%. If Jin Xia's East Route Army can invade Yuzhou at this time and block Chen Mo's way back, I hope it can be added to 20%."

After hearing this, Wu Fusheng also had a flash of disappointment in his eyes. At this time, he still didn't dare to compete with Chen Mo, so he could argue with the other party.

Fifth Fusheng sighed heavily. He was helpless, but looking at King Huai's expectant eyes, he could only play dead horse and say: "For the current plan, are there only two ways?"

Seeing that it was only 50% in this case, King Huai fell into deep thought, and then hesitantly said: "How many percent is the first method?"

"What about the second method?"

After the words fell, the eyes of everyone in the study changed when they looked at Prince Huai.

"What two methods?" King Huai asked hurriedly, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

At this moment, he felt extremely regretful. Why did he fight so hard to become the heir apparent?
Gan Yao looked at Fifth Fusheng and said, "Sir, is there any way to rescue this situation?"

"What's the chance of the second method?" King Huai asked again.

Fifth Fusheng shook his head.

"Fu Sheng, is there no other way?" King Huai asked with a complicated expression.

"Then it depends on what price the prince can pay." Fifth Fusheng said.

"What about the fourteen cities on the north bank of Fengzhou?" King Huai said.

If the fourteen cities on the north bank, which is equivalent to the port of Fengzhou, are abandoned, the Chen army can directly cross the river from Qingzhou to land. At that time, the Huai army will have to face attacks from both sides of Huaizhou and Qingzhou.

Fifth Fusheng raised his eyebrows, thought for a while and said: "Sixty percent." "Why only sixty percent?" King Huai said disappointedly.

"Your Majesty, the 60% is more than what my subordinates said. If it weren't for the Jin Xia Army in Yuzhou, even if the prince ceded half of Fengzhou to Chen Mo, the hope of peace would not be more than 30%." Fifth Fusheng sighed.

After all, the current King Huai can no longer pose a threat to Chen Mo.

In Fengzhou, the other party can take it by himself.

Seeing that the hope for peace was not very high, King Huai made a fist with five fingers of the hand that was holding the desk, smashed the table, and said with a cruel heart: "In that case, let's fight."

As he spoke, he looked at Chu Ce and said, "Chu Ce."

"The end will be here."

"I order you to command all the soldiers and horses in Fengzhou. Gan Yao and Xiao Yue will be at your command and attack Huaizhou at dawn tomorrow." King Huai said.

"No." Chu Ce responded solemnly.

The Li family was completely marginalized by King Huai. Recently, King Huai discussed important matters without notifying the Li family.

Not only that, even Mrs. Hui and Mrs. Hui's son were banned by King Huai's order. Outsiders, including members of the Li family, were not allowed to meet each other.

But what King Huai didn't know was that as the war in the north became more and more smooth, the Gan family was okay, and the Xiao family had begun to think of a way out for themselves, but they had never made up their minds. But today, when King Huai decided to fight, The Xiao family finally made up their mind.

Even Wu Fusheng said that there was little hope of taking Huaizhou, so the Xiao family naturally did not want to be buried with King Huai.

In order to keep it secret, the Xiao family did not even tell Mrs. Xiao. They secretly sent someone that night to tell the defenders of Yixian that King Huai was planning to attack Yixian tomorrow.

The husband and wife still fly away separately when disaster strikes.

The Xiao family is even more so.

……

Luonan, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Lu Sheng held a piece of good news in his hand, which was specially sent to the court by Chen Mo.

After reading the victory report, Lu Sheng's face was filled with solemnity and he said: "We have lost all our elites in this battle on the Eastern Front of Jinxia. The war in the north has been calmed down. Now he alone has the final say in the entire north. This Chen Mo, this is so surprising.”

These days, he has been paying attention to the war in the north, paying more attention to it than using troops against Xiliang.

"In this case, Chen Mo should be back from the north. If he learns that we are sending troops to Xiliang, will he intervene?" Lu Sheng's staff said solemnly.

After all, Xiliang and Chen Mo are in an alliance on the surface.

Lu Sheng shook his head and said: "Although the war in the north is over, there is still Jinxia Barbarian in Yuzhou. Yuzhou is his hometown. He has no time to interfere in Xiliang's affairs, and he is more anxious than us. He must be King Huai of Fengzhou."

"What the Prime Minister said makes sense."

"Just to be sure." Lu Sheng pondered for a while and said: "This time Chen Mo expelled the foreign enemies and regained the north. Such a great contribution is enough to make him a prince. We also want to express that Huicheng was not in the west some time ago. Liang has seized a batch of fine jade agates and sent them to Huaizhou as ordered. "

"The prime minister is wise." The staff flattered him.

However, before Lu Sheng finished speaking, he continued: "In the name of the imperial court, I will send a letter to King Huai to accuse the king of thief. The reason is that King Huai took advantage of Chen Mo to defend Huaizhou from foreign enemies."

"promise."
