Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 434: The Battle of Quarrying (3)

Human pressure and fear come gradually. —]. It's like a person sentenced to death feels scared, but it is definitely not as strong as when he was actually dragged to the execution ground; and when the gun was pointed at him, he became even more desperate; if he fired a gun, unfortunately I’m stuck and have to fight again...Big brother, strangle me to death, his mother|mother is scary!

Li Yu felt this way at this time, and his panic was gradually increasing.

A few months ago, he heard that Zhou Jun was going to fight the Southern Tang State, knowing that he might not be able to defeat it. He was worried every day, living like years in the fright of the country's subjugation; but his feelings at that time were not intuitive after all. Now, he learned that Tongling, Wuhu, and Dangtu had been defeated one after another, and that Zhou Shi had arrived at the quarrying ferry, and gradually felt that the enemy was approaching, and he was about to slap his nose.

A scene emerged in front of Li Yu: The "800,000 army" rushed across the Yangtze River from the quarry ferry like a tide, and rushed towards Jiangning Mansion. His land was full of enemy troops.

The quarrying ferry is only one hundred and twenty miles away from Li Yuda's Jiangning Mansion!

Not long ago, Zhou Jun’s people who crossed the river were still far away in Chizhou, four or five hundred miles apart, and they reached within a hundred miles in just over half a month, and there was no danger to guard in the middle... At the time, Jingkou, Chizhou, and Wuchang were all Being attacked, I don't know where Zhou Jun will break through. Jingkou is the most likely one, and there is the nearest one; and now, Li Yu has realized the seriousness of the quarrying situation anyway.

There was a sharp arrow facing Li Yu's chest. Li Yu feels that the fart|stock is not really sitting, as if there is needle felt on the seat.

Today is a cloudy day, and the light atmosphere in the palace is very gloomy, inexplicably depressing...the southern part of the Yangtze River has more rainy weather, which is the least rain in winter; now the low temperature is a bit low, but it is suitable for walking activities in the north, shallow rivers and less rain.

At this time, the ministers came to the palace one after another. The king came first and the ministers came later. Li Yu was in a hurry today.

After some etiquette, Li Yu couldn't wait to ask: "Who has the strategy of retreating from the Zhou army to quarrying?"

Others have been fighting over, and they can't send someone to persuade Zhou Jun to retreat with a three-inch tongue. In the end, only fight! Li Yu also knew that he could only send troops to the quarrying battle. He set his sights on Huangfu Jixun... I hope this general can take the initiative to ask for help and share his worries.

Among the generals of Jinling and those with qualified positions, Li Yu is most optimistic about Huangfu Jixun. After Zhongliang, loyalty is reliable; the military power status is also high enough to be the commander of the Shenwei Army. He was always respectful in front of Li Yu, not the arrogant generation.

But at this moment Huangfu Jixun pretended to be deaf and dumb, and did not step forward to share his worries. Li Yuxin said: Although he is not proactive enough, he may also be worried about not being able to beat him. After all, Zhou Jun is too strong; those who are prudent will be humble, which is also the advantage of being cautious and reliable. Loyal ministers are often not the kind of self-bragged and self-recommended ones!

At this moment, Chen Qiao, the assistant governor of the Guangzhengyuan, went out and said: "For the current plan, the only strategy is to deploy troops and strengthen quarrying. The minister has two sentences to say: one is to use good will be good; the other is to be fast. There must be no delay.

Prior to this, the minister offered a strategy to persuade his Majesty to send troops to strengthen quarrying defenses as soon as possible. At the beginning, Li Chuyun’s people were still hundreds of miles away... The previous negligence was more useless. This week’s army Li Chuyun’s troops are weak, and Dang Tucheng is also in my place. hand. It's not too late to fight back with heavy troops as soon as possible, and it is not too late to make up for it! The minister recommended that Lin Renzhao led his army to quarry and presided over the battle. "

After listening to Li Yu, Chen Qiao's words meant to blame the lord in public. He felt a little unhappy in his heart, human nature, and it would not be pleasant for anyone to be accused... Besides, is it my negligence for Li Chuyun to march into quarrying? If I remember correctly, Chen Qiao’s strategy was to divide troops from Jingkou, and the focus of quarrying was on the water surface; if he followed what he said early, when Jingkou was lost, they would say that Zhou’s main attack direction was in Jingkou. , Is it to blame me for the wrong judgment?

These long-standing high-ranking ministers, such as Chen Qiao, Han Xizai, etc., are very courageous, and intentionally or unintentionally, they are a bit dismissive of the new monarch. However, Li Yu didn't plan to care about him. After all, fighting with the ministers is not a good thing nowadays because of the current enemy; Li Yu also wanted to assume a humbly attitude.

He said: "Chen Gongyan is reasonable, but although Zhou Jun Li Chuyun has few people, he has mastered the water surface near the quarry, and may increase troops from the river. Our country should use heavy troops to advance to the quarry. Lin Renzhao can be the forward of the army... Huangfu General."

Huangfu Jixun hurriedly said: "The end is here."

Li Yu said: "The Guardian Army is waiting for Lin Renzhao as the forward. You are the commander of the Guardian Army. How about going out as the commander in chief?"

"No!" Without waiting for Huangfu Jixun's answer, Chen Qiao suddenly remonstrated unceremoniously, "Although General Huangfu is Zhongliang, he has never had a decisive record, nor has he made any insightful remarks. ; It’s not an act of goodness to grant military status solely based on birth and position. On the battlefield, regardless of birth, it has the same effect. But Lin Renzhao is different, at least the minister knows him better, and this person presides over the quarrying battle. , Is a better candidate."

Li Yu heard Chen Qiao speak ill of Huangfu Jixun face to face. Although the words were relatively euphemistic, they had a very clear meaning: saying that he had no background and no ability! Li Yu remained silent, thinking that this might actually stimulate Huangfu Jixun.

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Jixun was not angry, and clasped his fist, saying, "Chen Gong’s words are not unreasonable. The final general has not taken on a great task... But Lin Renzhao is not necessarily a good person. Neither I nor him are very suitable for this great task!"

Chen Qiao said, "Why doesn't General Huangfu recommend someone to come?"

Li Yu said at this time: "Civil and martial arts are not in harmony. It's useless for you to quarrel like this, why not listen to me?"

Chen Qiao hurriedly said: "The ministers are all advocating, and the one who makes the decree is still your majesty. I wish to respect your majesty's will." Huangfu Jixun also expressed obedience to the authority of the lord.

Li Yu said: "Different opinions, we should give in to each other. According to my intention, Huangfu Jixun is the coach and Lin Renzhao is the forward. According to my opinion, Huangfu Jixun is steady and Lin Renzhao is brave. The two negotiate and cooperate with each other. long……"

Chen Qiao didn't say a word, but he didn't object. Huangfu Jixun had just said that he was willing to obey His Majesty’s imperial decree, and now he clasped his fist and said, "I will follow the edict at the end."

Li Yu wondered, and he said something wrong... Huangfu Jixun has repeatedly said bad things about Lin Renzhao before, and just said that Lin Renzhao is not a good general, and he is obviously at odds. Saying "discussing and coordinating with each other" is an open eye and nonsense. . So Li Yu changed his words again: "Lin Renzhao is a forward and can directly take orders from the court without being restricted by the coach. As long as he is brave enough, no one will limit his ability."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Chen Qiao only paid his respects with satisfaction. Granting Lin Renzhao a certain degree of autonomy is obviously a good result for Chen Qiao... Chen Qiao has always recommended Lin Renzhao, and such a decision should make him a little satisfied.

Li Yu also thought it was better to do this... Although Chen Qiao kept saying that he was a loyal minister and virtuous, Li Yu still believed him; but Chen Qiao was considering his status as a minister. Li Yu is a king, so he has to beware of a middle-level general who was not originally a center of rule. Moreover, he is very new to Lin Renzhao and doesn’t know much about him; let Huangfu Jixun be the main general, mainly because Huangfu Jixun is a member of the circle. It's more reliable, at least he won't sell him for glory; if Lin Renzhao, the descendant of Fujian, wants to use the Southern Tang Army as a surrender capital, Huangfu Jixun can also restrain him.

Then he discussed with the minister about the dispatch of troops, and Li Yu urged Huangfu Jixun to prepare for the dispatch as soon as possible. Huangfu Jixun's main force will lead the Forbidden Army's second-hand force to more than 40,000, and Lin Renzhao's striker will also get more than 10,000. There were nearly 60,000 reinforcements for quarrying, and the force far exceeded that of Li Chuyun's department...Because Li Yu felt strongly about the threat a hundred miles away, this time it was indeed a heavy capital.

Then Li Yu chose another official and once again took the imperial decree to Hukou, urging Zhu Lingyun to help the capital as soon as possible!

... After dealing with a bunch of urgent matters, Li Yu was so tired that he could finally leave the front hall and rest in the harem.

In the harem, he dominated Zhou Xian...because he could not spoil other women, and Zhou Xian knew about his personal damaged private affairs at the time of Li Hongji's mutiny. Be more comfortable.

But when Li Yu saw Zhou Xian, he felt like he was splashed with cold water and was very unhappy.

I saw Zhou Xian painting boringly in the bedroom, without dressing up on his hair and face, even the clothes he wore were very lazy in matching up and down, as if he didn't care about appearance at all. Li Yu sighed "Oh": "Humanity is, women are the ones who please themselves. Ehuang is like this, is there no me in my heart?"

Zhou Xian got up and made a blessing. He lazily said: "The concubine and the king have been married for many years. You have been with the concubine all day long. As time passes, I don’t care about it. Besides, I don’t want to go out today. It’s boring to get dressed up with great energy, after a while when it gets dark, you have to unload."

"I have to worry about military affairs. When Ehuang is away, Emperor E can go out to meet other concubines, or find someone to accompany him." Li Yu said.

Zhou Xian looked lazy, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com said boringly: "What is there to talk about with them? It's nothing more than trivial and trivial words to others, meaningless."

Li Yu said, "My sister has already entered the palace on Tuesday, and she is at the queen's place. If you go to the queen's place, you can also see your sister."

Zhou Xian said: "There is a queen who loves her. In her heart, the queen is closer than me, so let her go."

Li Yu talked a few words with Zhou Xian, and heard that she had said "boring" a few times in a few words, and her spirit was also boring. For a while, she stayed in the bedroom like this to entertain herself. Draw and review music scores.

Li Yu had a feeling that not only did this woman lose interest in her husband, but she didn't seem to care much about the survival of the country. Humanity is only difficult for women and villains to raise. Women, like cats, are indeed loyal and not so reliable.

Zhou Xian was bored at this time, and his tidying up was a little sloppy, like a withered flower, and there was no vitality.
