Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 32 Royal Affairs
Right now, the Taiping Sect must be strictly guarding Lulong, the west gate of the Holy Kingdom of Taiping in their minds, in case they launch a counterattack. It will definitely be quite difficult for them to regain it in a short time. The weapons Lu Long dropped, including improved catapults and special crossbows, made Wu Feng even more frustrated. He didn't know whether Mi Feng and the others destroyed them when they evacuated Lu Long. If they all fell into the hands of the Taiping Sect, it would be even more troublesome. But if people from the Taiping Sect were allowed to occupy Lulong, after a long period of time, the people decided that they might have to pay a higher price if they wanted to take down this big mansion.
All kinds of melancholy came to mind, and Wufeng felt a rare sense of frustration at this time. He started his entrepreneurial career since he entered Qingyang, defeated the Luobei people twice, went west to Luzon, and suppressed rebellion inside. The army, seizing Yinchuan Taixuan in the north, has no disadvantages, is conceited and has no plans, and everything is under his control. Unexpectedly, since he returned from the imperial capital, the situation seems to have suddenly become a little unpredictable. Although Shuangdui Mansion in Northern Lusong was lost , but the sudden force of the Luzon people has made him feel that there are some things that he cannot fully control. However, this time Lulong's accidental fall, the three elite divisions took the defensive position and were unexpectedly defeated by the Kaman people. Such a large loss made him feel that the battle situation was unpredictable and it was difficult to distinguish between friends and foes. It seemed that he still underestimated the heroes of the world.
It's just that it's too late to regret it now. The loss of Lulong Mansion not only puts some pressure on Merrington's defense, but Guide and Partridge Pass are both within the direct attack range of the enemy, especially Partridge Pass. Encountered on three sides, the pressure will be even greater, and my dream of going east seems to be even more elusive.
The loss of the three main divisions made him feel very distressed. After thinking about it, the Kaman people's claim to be the number one military power in Liberia is by no means in vain. If the performance is mediocre, it is really suspicious. Waiting for the loss to be placed on him is really unacceptable to him. These are all elites who have spent countless efforts to train, especially the third and fifth divisions are his own starting troops. I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent on the state, not to mention the situation in the east is covered with clouds and fog, and there are hidden murderous intentions inside. War may break out at any time, so the lost power is even more precious.
It's just that it's too late to think about these things now, and thinking about and discussing future strategies is the most important thing at the moment. He rubbed his cheeks hard to get himself back to normal.
Taking a few deep breaths, Wufeng walked a long way with his hands behind his back, and then slowly walked back to the handsome tent in the center. Ge and Long Zizi can be regarded as old men in the Northwest Army, but they have never seen the coach look so ugly. Mulige and Long Zizi are secretly drumming in their hearts, and they don't know how to explain this to the coach. The casualties of three divisions.
"Come in, don't dawdle outside." Sitting down, Wufeng has recovered his usual composure, but his expression is still a little ugly, but it is a world of difference from the expression when he inspected the camp just now Yes, the hearts of those who heard the sound were a little relieved.
"My lord!" Mulig said in a deep voice, "I was trapped by the Kamanians this time, and the casualties were huge. This subordinate should take full responsibility."
"Subordinates are the same..." Long Zi also hurriedly came out and echoed.
"Enough, needless to say, I'm not here to discuss responsibility today. If I want to talk about responsibility, maybe I, the coach, should bear more. Everyone has seen the strength of the Kaman people. Let's teach us a lesson and sound a wake-up call, lest some of us think that we are the best in the world, and no one will take it seriously." Wu Feng waved his hand to stop the two people's self-criticism, although his tone was flat, but The implication contained in it made the heads of the four divisions, including Sha Lang, sweat coldly.
"It doesn't matter if we lose the battle, the problem is that we have to realize why we lost the battle? What is the reason? Lulong's fall, no one else's fault, I have to bear the main responsibility; I have to bear considerable responsibility for the failure of the southern line , but the three of you have to think carefully about whether you have made any mistakes?" Seeing that several people lowered their heads quietly, Wufeng still analyzed slowly: "Although the Kamans are powerful in fighting, but our three divisions are all It is mainly infantry, and the heavy infantry is the trump card of our Northwest Army. Relying on the favorable terrain, why do you still suffer in front of the Kamans? You should think about it carefully and find out whether it is worthwhile Improvements."
After a few words, Mu, Long, Xiong, and Sha dared not say much, but silently pondered the meaning of the coach's words.
"Okay, I don't want to say anything else, let's go down and rest first." Seeing that the four of them were lost in thought, Wufeng didn't say anything more, but he also hoped that his three subordinates could take advantage of this opportunity. Taking the opportunity to reflect on himself, Wufeng also vaguely found that some pride and complacency in his army began to breed, especially in some troops that had won several battles. More or less contaminated with this kind of view, if it weren't for the two consecutive bats this time, maybe I wouldn't be able to wake myself up.
Situ Mingyue was reclining on the soft chair, looking out of the hot summer window with blank eyes. Occasionally, a cool breeze would sneak in, endless worries entangled in his heart like vines. Not all of this is because the current situation has affected his mood. Although the situation in the north and the south is not very good, nothing too bad happened.
The Lin and Lang families in Guanxi are both acting positively and viciously, especially Lin Guoxiong, who is trying to delay the imperial army from taking over the Lujiang River for various reasons. Small and medium-scale battles continued, but no major battles took place. The Taiping Jiaoren changed their strategy, restraining the city guards going north from multiple routes, and constantly sending small groups of fine cavalry to harass the supply lines of the city guards, so that the city guards did not dare Push forward easily, and the internal affairs department tried their best to contact in Qinghe Mansion. Among the gentry, they couldn't find two people who were willing to serve the empire. Situ Mingyue also found it inconceivable that the influence was so terrifying.
What bothered him even more was his own body, which sometimes went up and down. Even the best imperial doctor in the empire could not diagnose what disease he was suffering from. Is it because he is already terminally ill? I am not afraid of death, and I am too tired to control such a large empire for decades, ups and downs. Since the pro-government, all kinds of troubles seem to have never stopped. From the Sanjiang Incident to Lang Yongquan's protection of the seal, it seems that he has participated in it. The outbreak, the invasion of the Luobei people, and the changes in recent years have come one after another, as if they have never stopped, it is really tiring.
If you can get rid of these annoying things, you can easily rest in an unknown place for a while, go fishing, read a book, taste tea, or ask two monks and priests to practice meditation. , that would be great, but unfortunately all of this seems to be an unattainable luxury of my own. Looking out the window in a daze, Situ Mingyue didn't even pay attention to the **** who stood beside the door calling softly a few times.
"Your Majesty, Mr. He has been waiting for your summons outside the palace." The little **** raised his voice slightly and said in fear.
"Oh, I see, let him come here directly." Although it was arranged by herself, Situ Mingyue was still a little annoyed that the other party interrupted her imagination, and even this little freedom would be deprived by others. upset.
"Your Majesty." Seeing the elderly figure appearing in her eyes, Situ Mingyue was deeply moved. It was not easy for her to be an emperor, but she looked at the old man in front of her, who was also working under pressure. It suddenly jumped into Situ Mingyue's mind.
What happened to me today, why I keep thinking about these inexplicable things, Situ Mingyue shook her head, smiled self-deprecatingly, and returned her thoughts to her eyes.
"Sit down, Aiqing~IndoMTL.com~ There are only you and I here, you don't have to be too formal." He greeted gently, and Situ Mingyue sat upright tired.
"Your Majesty is recruiting ministers for something urgent?" He Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment. It seemed that there should be no emergency. His Majesty's expression did not show any abnormality, but at this moment he was recruiting himself to attack alone to speak. Is there anything else that can't be done?
"No, it's nothing important, you don't want to be a shadow of a snake." Situ Mingyue smiled faintly, "I just want to find someone to chat with, and I'm so bored in this car."
"Oh, I thought that there was some urgent military situation on the front line." He Zhiqiu breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately recalled that His Majesty the Emperor summoned him to the palace at this time. , the royal family has no selfish affairs, and it is not guaranteed that it will involve things that are currently being discussed in the ruling and opposition parties. I really don't want to get involved in it. Such things are really beyond the reach of these outsiders.
Seeing the other party's cautious appearance, Situ Mingyue also sighed in her heart. How could she know that Qiu Lao Shen is holding the country and is really her own minister, but it stands to reason that there are some things that should not be asked of him, but her health is getting worse. If you make a decision early, I'm afraid that some caring people will continue to stir up trouble here, and maybe the more you delay, the more difficult the situation will be to control.
Pretending to be relaxed, he asked casually: "How is the progress of the Machihan people in Southern Rhonesia?"
"Returning to Your Majesty, the situation in Southern Rhonesia has basically stabilized. Although the Machihans made a breakthrough from Gaoligong Mountain for a while, the logistics problem cannot be solved in time. Their main focus now is to find a way to get through this Besides, the Lin family has also decisively adopted a defensive position, and there will be no new situation in a while." He Zhiqiu was taken aback for a moment, and quickly replied.
