Spring Girl's Notes

Chapter 239 Reinforcements

When he came back from the pharmacy that day, he was shocked by the strong horse, which made Zhu Zhongjun extremely uneasy.

He took Sun Ke to wander around the city.

Gu Jinzhi asked him several times, but was interrupted by him.

Even Song Pan'er could see it, and asked Gu Jinzhi: "My lord is busy these days, walking around, where does he say he is going?"

Gu Jinzhi shook his head, and said as if nothing had happened: "Sun Ke followed him, and he is in the capital, who would dare to touch the prince? Mother, don't worry. He hasn't been back to Beijing for several years, and it's not uncommon for him to suddenly want to look around on a whim."

This reason also makes sense.

Song Pan'er didn't ask any more questions.

And Gu Jinzhi himself was also thinking about Zhu Zhongjun's changes before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

When he came back from the palace, he said that there was a difference between the emperor and the queen mother, which was the beginning of his change; and the last time he was hit by a fierce horse in the back street of the pharmacy, it made him very nervous.

His nervousness continued until the news came back from An Nanguo in the south.

He seemed to finally understand why the emperor was in a bad mood, and he relaxed a little.

Last year, troops were used against Annan, and there was a rebellion in Pingannan. Due to the terrain of Annan, the counter-insurgency has not yet achieved great success.

But now, there are rumors that the [-] troops were ambushed by An Nanguo, and all of them were wiped out...

The emperor probably heard such words last time, so he was unhappy at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

The specific mansion report has not yet reached the court, but the news spread more and more, and even Song Pan'er in the inner house heard about it.

"An Nanguo is only a little older, but this battle has been fought since last year?" After dinner, everyone sat and talked together.Song Pan'er talked about this incident, "Not only did the rebellion not be quelled, but there were rumors of being annihilated by the entire army. It's an idiot to be in command!"

Gu Jinzhi remembered the history he had read.

When the army arrived in Annan Kingdom, firstly, they were not acclimatized to the environment, and many soldiers fell ill; secondly, they were not familiar with the terrain and were always attacked by Annanguo's army;

"Marching and fighting are very rare, you just sit and grind your mouth." Gu Yanzhen said. "The person in charge is Yuan Pinghou. If the rumors are true..."

He stopped talking and did not continue.

If the rumors are true, then one hundred thousand soldiers will die in the future.

How many people's bones are separated, and they can't even see the last side?

Besides this, there are others.

After suffering such a big loss, it is impossible for the court to forget it like this.

It is necessary to re-elect generals and re-conscription.Once you use your troops.It is necessary to increase taxes, and the people are going through a lot of trouble.

Song Pan'er also knows this...

"At the end of the day, the coach is a bit useless." Song Pan'er said.

This topic was a bit heavy, Song Pan'er and Gu Yanzhen didn't like it, and the children couldn't understand it, so they changed the topic to the relationship between people in Beijing.

The Tan family has sent someone to propose marriage to the Ning family.Wanting to marry Ning Yu, the niece of the Empress Dowager's natal family, for Tan Guifei's younger brother, the eighth young master of Tan's parents' house, is the most lively topic in Beijing.

Song Paner also heard about it.

Marriage between two great families.Attracted everyone's attention.

"I heard from my sister-in-law that many people in Beijing are greedy and have their eyes on the eighth young master of the Tan family. I heard that the eighth young master is five or six years old and is always taken by the concubine Tan Guifei. The siblings are like mother and child." " Song Pan'er said to Gu Yanzhen, "Tan Guifei, it is her destiny to be an empress in the future. Now she is married to the empress dowager's niece. I am afraid that the successor has already been decided..."

Like Brother Xuan and Brother Xiu, Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun sat quietly drinking tea.

adults speak.No children to intervene.

But the children were not interested in this topic at all, they just wanted to hurry up and go back to their rooms.

But no one dared to express everything.

Zhu Zhongjun also wanted to leave quickly.

Everyone in Beijing knows what the Tan family is planning.Marrying with the Empress Dowager's natal family and gaining the Empress Dowager's support, I'm afraid it was always the Tan family's plan.

Of course, apart from the Tan family, no one has the capital to attack the Ning family.

With Ning E's character, anyone who is lower than their family is regarded as a flattery.

In the entire Beijing, probably only the Tan family came to ask for a marriage, so he felt that they belonged to their family, right?

"Whoever will be the next seat will not be our mother's turn..." Gu Yanzhenwen replied inappropriately, "You worry about it!"

"Am I worried about this?" Song Pan'er retorted.

The two of them didn't talk speculatively, and they felt a little bit about to quarrel.

Brother Xuan and Brother Xiu immediately felt uneasy, and looked at Gu Jinzhi as if asking for help.

Gu Jinzhi stood up and interrupted his mother: "Mom, we're going back first..."

Song Pan'er also knew that she was in a hurry to speak, she was afraid that the children would be uncomfortable, so she didn't keep them and let the maids send them out.

Coming out of the upper room, Zhu Zhongjun went to the outer courtyard, and Gu Jinzhi went back.

The two want to go the same way.

Zhu Zhongjun asked Gu Jinzhi, "What's the matter with An Nanguo?"

When An Nanguo's accident happened, he had just traveled to this world and didn't know much about it.

Gu Jinzhi explained Chen Yuchao's affairs in detail.

"It's also consistent with the history." Gu Jinzhi said, "The Annan Kingdom in history also fought for more than two years. After that, the Annan Kingdom was merged into the territory and became the Chief Secretary of Annan, and it was no longer a vassal state. .”

Zhu Zhongjun was silent.

"An Nanguo, is it Vietnam later?" He asked Gu Jinzhi.

He is not familiar with history, but the sensitivity of politicians has not diminished.

Gu Jinzhi nodded: "It should be. Maybe the territory is a bit different, but it is roughly the Vietnam that came later..."

"I remember that in the Vietnam War, there was a very important tool. Did it restrict the peace?" Zhu Zhongjun said.

"What?" Gu Jinzhi had no interest in war, and even less knew about this space-time war, so she couldn't think of it for a while.

"Elephants." Zhu Zhongjun said, "Elephants have thick skin and flesh, and they are huge. Bows and arrows have little effect on them. Vietnam has always domesticated elephants as one of the secret weapons of war."

What Gu Jinzhi vaguely remembered were history books, not war history books...

"Very likely." Gu Jinzhi praised. "It's hard for you to think of this. Annan's military strength and weapons are not as good as ours, and there are no mountains in the territory, but there are many rivers and rivers. Crossing the river is not difficult. After fighting for so long, there is no progress, and the news that the entire army was wiped out shows that Annan There are things we can't do."

Zhu Zhongjun pursed his lips and smiled.

"To end this war, we need a way to deal with elephants." Zhu Zhongjun said, "I have a ready-made method to steal..."

After that, he didn't say anything more.Turn around from the fork in the road and go to the outer courtyard.

Gu Jinzhi didn't hear the following, and felt quite uncomfortable.

She has been thinking about how to deal with the elephant all night, what method Zhu Zhongjun said.

Elephants are too big, bows and arrows are useless; artillery has not yet had time to fill.The elephant has already rushed over; or it has been filled early, and the elephant is shot when it meets the elephant, which may not be able to hit it in one hit.If you can't hit it, you won't have time to fill it up, and you won't be able to run, it's just the fate of being trampled to death...

Think for a while.After all, I am not familiar with war, and I don't know much about the specific habits of elephants.Slowly fell asleep.

Zhu Zhongjun didn't sleep.

After he took a bath, he sent all the maids away, leaving only Sun Ke talking in front of him.

He asked Sun Ke: "Among you people who came to Beijing, has anyone ever been stationed in the south, or is he from the south?"

Sun Ke didn't know why.

He thought about it seriously, and said: "Yao Wencuo is from Guangxi, and his family is a thief."

Zhu Zhongjun heard this.The eyes lit up.

"Tell me carefully..."

"My lord, there is no need to say more. Yao Wencuo is Lord Ning's dead soldier, loyal. His family is a thief. When the court rebelled, his father was killed, and he and several uncles were arrested. It was Lord Ning who saw him. He was as strong as an ox, so he stayed under his command, and returned the corpses of his uncle and father to him for his burial." Sun Ke said.

Zhu Zhongjun smiled even more.

Sun Ke could also see that Zhu Zhongjun and Ning Xi were not of one mind, which was good.

It's even better if you can break it face to face.

Zhu Zhongjun doesn't pretend to be a fool in front of Sun Ke on weekdays.

At this moment, it felt like piercing the window paper.

Seeing Zhu Zhongjun's smile, Sun Ke slowly returned to his seat with a trembling and tentative heart, and he also smiled rarely.

"Everyone has shortcomings." Zhu Zhongjun said to Sun Ke with a smile, "There is nothing impossible in this world. You have also heard about the war in An Nanguo. Regardless of whether the entire army was wiped out or not, it must have suffered a loss. The imperial court wants to send troops again, I will recommend myself, and use all the guards of the palace as reinforcements. You are also going, and I want you to make a great contribution... But you must bring someone who is familiar with the situation in the south, otherwise there will be no Convincing. Do you dare?"

When Sun Ke heard this, the corners of his eyes twitched.

He doesn't dare to be conceited about his talent, but it may be his luck to have the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

Once he wins, he will be able to stand side by side with Ning Xi when he returns.If you don't work in the Ministry of War, you can also send a commander of the chief secretary, and your status will not be worse than Ning Xi.

"Of course I dare!" Sun Ke said in a deep voice, "Thank you, my lord, for your cultivation! This subordinate will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations."

"Okay." Zhu Zhongjun laughed, "It is enough to have this kind of heart. That Yao made a mistake, please explain it to me carefully, and I will help you find a way, let's win him over..."

Sun Ke smiled and said yes.

He tried his best to tell Zhu Zhongjun a little bit about the wrong Yao he knew.

"...Where's his mother, where are his brothers and sisters?" Zhu Zhongjun listened for a long time, and found that Yao asked the wrong question in Sun Ke's mouth.

But his family is a thieves, his father, uncle and brother are dead, so the mother and sister must have run away, right?

Sun Ke was stunned.

"I haven't heard him say it..." Sun Ke said, "He may not care."

"People with love and righteousness care about it!" Zhu Zhongjun said firmly, "The more he doesn't say anything, the more he can't let go. Remember what I said, and when you take him there, find a way to help him find a home." People. Once you find a living one, you will be his greatest benefactor, and he will be your confidant in the future."

Sun Ke said yes.

Zhu Zhongjun smiled, and told Sun Ke one by one what he knew about elephants.

The two talked until the cock crowed.

The next day, sure enough, an accurate residence report arrived at the court.

Annan's anti-rebel army was ambushed in Jiling Pass, and was attacked in Jialin River, losing half of it. The commander asked for reinforcements.
