Chapter 017
The prince of Shangguo of the Celestial Dynasty knew that his third brother, Prince Jing, was not lying, because most of these things were done recently by his princelings.
Therefore, the prince thought for a long time and murmured in a low voice: "God's will is so difficult for manpower to do. Let's do our best to obey God's will and adapt to circumstances." What he said was that he wanted to watch his father's funeral and wait for this moment to come.
.
Just as everyone expected, Emperor Shangtian immediately fell into a coma after weaning off the medicine and was about to die at any moment.
But who would have thought, who would have thought, that Emperor Shangtian, a man who was about to die, would actually be so immortal that he would come to his senses!
Maybe it was the change in temperature, or maybe it was the legendary return of light, but the emperor just woke up.
The first thing Emperor Shang Tian did when he woke up was to angrily accuse the prince: "Why did you stop Prince Jing from buying medicine for me? What are your intentions as an unfilial son? Why don't you care about my life or death and are so busy preparing to take over?"
What about acting on behalf of the government? Tell me! Are you just hoping that I will die soon so that you can immediately ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor?"
Seeing how Emperor Shangtian was so angry that his eyes were split open, he just couldn't move, otherwise he would just hit people, or even kill people with a knife!
His father's unexpected awakening and power seizure disrupted all the prince's plans. Many of the things he wanted to do were unable to be done, but some things had to be done, and they had to be done even if they couldn't be done.
For the current prince, he couldn't count on all the ministries in the court, especially the military aircraft department, and he didn't even have to think about mobilizing the army. Therefore, the helpless prince found another way and thought of Feng Zhongye, the veteran commander of the Fengliang Army in Fengmang Pass.
Very few people know that besides the Fengmangguan establishment, there are also Tabai Army, field army, militia, recruits, reserve and other battalions that are not included in the list. The energy of these non-staff Fengmang Army cannot be underestimated, and their controllers
, it is the veteran forward and midfielder.
The prince ordered his confidants to travel long distances to Fengmang Pass with his autographed letter, avoiding the high-ranking officials such as Feng Tiexi, the commander of the Fengmang Army, and privately meet with the old man Feng Zhongye alone.
The prince was very direct in his letter. He suspected that the banditry in Qinglong Jinwozi in Donghai County was related to the Baekje barbarians, and even involved King Jing, General Anhai Huang Huai and his fishy sons.
But at the same time, the prince did not mean to force him at all. He just put the safety of the country first and wanted Feng Zhongye to do this personal favor for him in his private capacity.
At the same time, the prince's people also said that let alone a failure in this matter, even if the edge army succeeded, there would be no benefit, and there would even be great risks!
The only promise the prince made to the old commander was that after he ascends the throne one day, he would use other methods to make up for and reward the contribution of the vanguard army, especially the old man in the vanguard.
But for the sake of the country and the people, he believed that this matter must be done, and he could not delay it.
This year's Spring Festival in Shangguo of the Celestial Dynasty seems to be another prosperous year. The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu, and the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful.
This year's Spring Festival is another prosperous year. The sound of firecrackers marks the end of the year, the spring breeze brings warmth to Tusu, and the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful.
But who would have thought that classes would start on the sixth day of the first lunar month, a day when everyone in the court would get together happily during the Spring Festival and have a drink as usual, but the indifferent Zhenbo Mansion rushed to this day to publish the military report on the White Tiger case
I rushed here to ask for help.
Zhenbo Prefecture is the border of the Celestial Empire, and Donghai County is close to the sea and mountains. The family lives on the sea and the mountains. It was originally a prosperous and prosperous hometown that everyone envied. But I don’t know when, there was a banditry here, and
It's getting more and more rampant.
Maritime troubles at sea are under the jurisdiction of General An Hai who is stationed in Haining Prefecture. Zhenbo Prefecture does not need to worry about it. Facts have proved that they do not need to worry about the sea. But what is troublesome is that these bandits suddenly appear out of nowhere.
, like a spark igniting a prairie fire, it gradually became a scabies disease in Zhenbo Mansion and even the entire empire!
The small garrison in Zhenbo Mansion is very good at protecting the city and the countryside, but it is beyond its reach to do anything else. And Shangguo of the Celestial Dynasty does not take it seriously, because the Military Aircraft Department has sent large troops to encircle and suppress it several times.
Last autumn, the army sent by the imperial court to suppress bandits in Donghai County, Zhenbo Prefecture, was attacked and defeated on New Year's Eve. The 50,000 troops and horses left behind were completely destroyed without any trace of casualties.
Even so, your Zhenbo Mansion shouldn't report it at this time, there are only 50,000 people. The reason why the military report is so urgent is mainly because the bandit army took advantage of the victory and entered Donghai County.
This group of bandits not only robbed the Sinotrans warehouse of 80,000 taels of new currency that was to be shipped out after the new year, but also directly threatened the economic lifeline of the entire Celestial Dynasty Shangguo, a place known as the "Green Dragon Golden Nest".
The Qinglong Mint was built adjacent to the Jinwozi Mine. The two are collectively called Qinglong Jinwozi. It is the famous Eastern Treasury of the Celestial Dynasty and the largest new coin manufacturing company. If this place were to fall, or if there was something wrong, it would really
No one can take the responsibility.
The three thousand military guards in the Qinglong Mint, plus the countless slaves and overseers in the Jinwozi Mine, resisted with all their might and suffered heavy casualties. Please ask the imperial court to send troops for reinforcements as soon as possible. The frontline of life and death is a hundred thousand urgent, a hundred thousand urgent!!
However, no matter how urgent the situation is, Qinglong Jinwozi has nothing to do, because as usual, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is also euphemistically called the Fatty Day. It is an important day to clean up the garbage and excrement accumulated from the first to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
The customs of the palace are similar to those among the people. This day is also commonly known as sending away the poor. It is the only day in the whole year that you can only go out and not enter. Therefore, military memorials can enter the palace, but military aircraft cannot enter the palace.
In addition, Emperor Shangtian is in a state of decline in the past few days, and no one wants to choose today to get into trouble; but the military situation is so fierce that there is no need to delay it, especially when it concerns Qinglong Jinwozi.
Therefore, the military aircraft handled matters urgently and issued orders to the entire army. They temporarily lifted the ban on the transit of soldiers and horses in Zhenbo Prefecture, and the dead horses were treated as living horses.
The suppression of bandits in Donghai County has been more disappointing every time. Countless financial and energy efforts have been invested but failed twice. This third time, a hundred thousand troops came directly, just to complete the victory. Who would have thought that they would be attacked on New Year's Eve and stay behind?
Half of the troops were actually wiped out by the bandits!
This incident cannot be entirely blamed on the improper planning of the Military Aircraft Department, nor can it be entirely blamed on the incompetence of these troops of the Celestial Empire. In fact, Zhenbo Mansion must bear most of the responsibility for the disaster in the first place, and Donghai County is even more pitiful. People must be hateful.
Wherever you are, you deserve to be unlucky.
At first sight, it was clear that these bandits were not simple, but they did not dare to tell the court that they were a group of barbarians from the Baekao Kingdom, the Baekje tribe, from the other side of the mountain, and they also established a small gang under their noses.
