Chapter 480 Beijing’s reaction
Chapter 480 Beijing’s reaction
Not to mention that the Han army cooperated with the White Lotus Sect to train elite soldiers.
Not to mention that Mao Yuanju, the left guardian of the White Lotus Sect, is still constantly deploying the guardian army and the guardian army from Leizhou to encircle and suppress the Jiangnan camp.
Just say that the Jiangnan camp was defeated in Changsha County and the massacre in Leizhou had been rushed to the capital by [-] Li.
The eight-hundred-mile journey involves a major matter of national importance, life and death.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way!"
In the capital, there were knights riding fast horses, dressed in ragged clothes, with flags on their backs, running quickly while shouting to avoid the people on both sides.
For a time, people on the street fled and fell on their backs.
Over the years, wars have continued, and they have seen several hundred-mile rushes, but this kind of eight-hundred-mile rush has never happened again since it happened three years ago.
For a time, the people in the capital talked about it.
"I told you to hurry up at [-] miles. Could it be that Rakshasa is calling again?"
"Maybe, I don't know how many states will be ceded this time!"
"Well, if you put it this way, wouldn't Da Gan be... woo woo woo!"
Before the man could finish speaking, his mouth was covered by his companion.
"Don't argue, don't argue!"
There was still a bit of fear in his words.
After all, talking about the fate of the country really makes me impatient.
Then someone shouted: "Don't be frightened, there might be another rebel somewhere!!"
"Tsk, this is an eight-hundred-mile emergency. What kind of rebel would rebel at this time?"
"That's right, there can't be another White Lotus Sect, right?"
This joke is very cold, but in Beijing, this joke is still very funny.
Someone teased: "Didn't you say that the Jiangnan Camp was dispatched some time ago? Do you think the Jiangnan Camp was defeated??"
As soon as these words came out, the people in the capital laughed even more cheerfully.
"Hahahaha, you said Jiangnan Camp was defeated, why don't you say Jiangnan Camp rebelled?"
Everyone in the world knows that Jiangnan Camp is the cornerstone of the imperial court's suppression of Jiangnan. It has been invincible for 200 years, and even a small defeat will be reversed quickly.
What's more, this kind of army and court must be firmly in control, and rebellion is nonsense.
So after someone said such words, people laughed and sang even more.
"Hahahahaha, I'm laughing so hard!!"
"Yes, yes, this is the funniest joke I have ever heard in the world, hahahaha!!"
For a time, the people on the streets of Beijing burst into laughter.
As for the victory or defeat of the imperial court, it has nothing to do with them.
Because they know very well that no matter who they are, the people in their capital must be obedient citizens.
And the one who sits on the throne, in order to stabilize the world, must make the area around the capital the best place in the world and treat people like them well.
Therefore, they are not afraid at all.
What they feared more was that they would be caught and killed for discussing government affairs and criticizing the emperor. Most of the time, they lived a more stable life than anyone else in the world.
But they forgot, is the capital really a safe haven? ?
He really thinks too highly of himself.
So after laughing, someone immediately suggested:
"Let's go, the weather is nice today. I'll treat you all to some Chinese cabbage. This is the best cabbage in my capital city. It has been stored from last year to this year. It is the most authentic. Once you take a bite, it tastes exactly like my mother."
"Not bad, not bad. The radish is also a must-have. It's just right now. It's not crispy and soft. It's most flavorful when paired with soy sauce."
Alas, they are always so particular about eating.
Even if your family is poor, you can do this.
Downstairs in a two-story building, Wu Dalang carried two loads of sesame cakes and told his wife who was sending him out:
"Daughter-in-law, I'm going out, you have to take good care of the house!"
Then he looked at Ximen Deng, who had just come from the street, and said gratefully:
"Brother Ximen, thank you for your help during this time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to buy these sesame cakes!"
Ximen Deng smiled: "If Brother Wu hadn't taken me in, I would still be sleeping on the street now!"
Then Ximen Deng said: "Brother Wu, something may happen in the capital today. In fact, I suggest you not to go out!"
Wu Dalang smiled and waved his hand, "In that case, this sesame seed cake is only good to eat while it's hot. It won't taste good if it's cooled down!"
Seeing that Wu Dalang insisted on going to the street, Ximen Deng couldn't stop him, so he immediately handed over a small wooden sign.
"This is the famous name of Yanhan Trading Company. They may eat some of the sesame cakes. Brother Wu can give it a try!"
Wu Dalang took the famous assassin, thanked him, and left with his burden.
Ximen Deng declined Wu Dalang's wife's invitation and turned to leave.
Because he still has many, many things to do and doesn't have much time to waste here.
But inside the palace, which was very different from the city, it was the time of the court meeting, and such a big event immediately shocked the entire court.
"The Jiangnan Camp was defeated by a small Han bandit and lost about 2 people. Prince Yishan died in the battle. Then the Jiangnan Camp rebelled and slaughtered the entire Leizhou officials. Governor Ji Men and Admiral Huan Kaichang were killed by them."
"My dear friends, what do you think we should do?"
The voice that asked this question was like the voice of a drake, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a young man wearing a dragon robe.
This person is the current emperor of Daqian, named Yi Zaipu, and he has not yet taken charge.
However, he could still say such words in the court.
In the court hall, all the ministers were silent, and it took a long time for someone to come forward.
"Your Majesty, regardless of whether this battle report is comfortable or not, we need to mobilize the army to go south to prepare for any eventuality."
Everyone looked over to see who was so bold, and found that it was the newly appointed Minister of War, Lu Qinghou.
Considering this person's temper and status at this time, it is not a problem to say such words.
And after Marquis Lu Qing came forward, others began to come forward one after another.
Some said it was necessary to stand still, some said they agreed with what Lu Qinghou said, some said that the Jiangbei camp should be mobilized to go south, and some radicals had mobilized the Beijing camp to go south to quell the rebellion.
For a moment, the court was like a pot of boiling water, noisy and noisy.
"Quiet, no noise in the main hall!"
With the crack of the whip, the court suddenly became quiet. At the request of the Empress Dowager, the ministers withdrew, leaving only a group of important ministers from the Military Aircraft Department.
In the military aircraft department, Lu Qinghou happened to get a chance.
Soon, everyone in the military aircraft department agreed on one thing, that is, the Jiangbei camp could not go south, and neither the Beijing camp nor the border troops could go south.
However, the area south of the Yangtze River needed an army to suppress it. Finally, at the suggestion of Lu Qinghou, the imperial court immediately relaxed some restrictions and ordered the governors and admirals of Chuanzhou, Huzhou, Jiangzhou, and Fuzhou to recruit troops. Each state was rated 5 Thousands of people.
As a result, in Jiangnan today, in addition to county soldiers, there are as many as 20 troops formed by the imperial court.
But these 20 people need a good leader.
At this time, the two princes in the royal family were unwilling to go, but there was no way. One of the princes was forced to go south to the south of the Yangtze River.
This army has a commander, and a prince serves as the commander-in-chief of the 20-strong army. Five generals were appointed, each leading [-] troops.
It can be said that although each of the four states has raised [-] troops, each state needs to provide [-] troops and be led by another general.
Among them, the four generals are naturally the admirals of the four states, and the No. 5 general is mentioned by Lu Qinghou, and is held by Lu Wenlun, the governor of Jinling.
The reason is that although Jinling County belongs to Jiangnan, due to its economic and cultural reasons, it is directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court and is not related to the other four prefectures.
So the imperial court ordered Tilu Wenlun to be the admiral and command [-] troops.
Then, the imperial edict was issued, and the prince prepared to go south.
For a time, the situation inside and outside the court suddenly changed.
