Power and Empire Chapter 2358: Thunder thunder in the silent place (12)
Rain water hit the white jade stone dragon mouth on the steps of the palace hall, and rolled down the dragon on the steps. The Central Bahia Guards on both sides stood motionless, Li Long in a big red robe. Appeared at the entrance of the main hall, the face that should have been energetic was filled with vacillation, the corner of his mouth smiled bitterly, and he raised his head to look towards the sky. Surabaya defeated it! What fluctuated was not only the situation of the battle of the Imperial Capital, but also the Chinese and Biya court. At the palace meeting just now, the generals of the military looked indifferent, saying that although Yang Zi was arrogant, he should not have the courage to deliberately. Lost in Surabaya, and he is also a titan who really dared to fight a tough battle with the grassland army, but the grassland people overwhelmed Surabaya by the 50,000 most elite grassland front army, and the 60,000 Luzhou army nearly forced to starve to death in Shangjing in Yanzhou. , The combat power is naturally not too bad, and Yang Zi has only 30,000 in his hands. Even with the Surabaya River, he can’t hold on for a long time. If necessary, give up Surabaya. This result is acceptable.
Compared to the insufficiently defended Surabaya Beach, the Wuling Po, which lies hundreds of miles across the mountain, is more suitable for the defensive tactics of the Chinese and Bianya army. Moreover, the 100,000 flattering army from Hanglin in the south is where it is now. , Less than fifty miles away from Wulingpo, should be able to arrive very quickly, even if Yang Zi did not block the grassland army, he can also be able to deploy defense in the Imperial Capital, the loss of Surabaya, the impact is far less significant!
Hearing the explanations of the military commanders, the young emperor’s complexion was a little better. The Emperor has become the most painful weakness in his heart. He woke up from his dream several times and was sweating. The first time the Emperor was breached, at least The Biya army held on for three or four months, and finally gave up because of the unfavorable situation of the war. Hundreds of thousands of people were massacred in the imperial capital and the prosperous city was burned down. It has been regarded as a shame and shame by the whole country of China and Biya. Both myself and Chaotang were both scolded **** heads,
He is the emperor, but the emperor can't control others not to speak. He finally played down some of the influence and aroused the hard-wounded military and public support. If the prairie people break into the capital this time, it will be *naked face-slapped. The emperor himself will definitely be nailed to the historical shame shelf. For an ambitious emperor, how could this shame be accepted? !
"The defeat of Surabaya. Yang Zi is responsible, but others are not?" The young emperor's sullen gaze swept across, the temperature of the entire palace was cold by a few degrees, and the generals bowed their heads. , 30,000 infantry fought 50,000 cavalry. It’s not bad to be defeated, not to mention that Yang Zi also retreated to Wulingpo with all his strength, but who dares to say that the flattering army leader Chen Dongyang has just been removed from his post, and the emperor is determined to pay attention to this. Forged a new flattering army in the battle of Emperor Jing,
"The minister thinks. The defeat in Surabaya was mainly due to the ineffectiveness of General Yang Zi, but also the ineffective equipment!" A military commander in a red and green robe stood out from the queue solemnly. He glanced fiercely at the back of Li Long who was standing in front of him. Said quietly,
" The important ordnance purchased by Chaotang for 500,000 taels of silver is so useless! Is there any question here?
"Although the purchase of Thor this time is an agreement between China and Biya and the Falcon Empire, the handlers are all from the Li family! Lord Li Long in front of the military cabinet, and Li Yuehua in the Falcon Empire. To say that there is no tricky inside, I am afraid it is hard to believe!"
The general's words seem a little uncertain. But it was like a stone slammed into the dead water surface, as if it was a shock to the sky. The arrow points directly to the Li family, the head of the four gates
" Is it? "The young emperor's eyes narrowed slightly,
The person who spoke was the third-ranked figure in the military pavilion. Hanglin guards, Zhangwu army chief Luo Wuyang, in red and green robe, is already a first-level figure of military commander among generals, and he is more than Li Long’s full red. To be a higher level, according to the truth, it should be standing in front of Li Long, but the military commander is standing behind Li Long. It seems a bit dazzling,
This is because the emperor appointed Li Long to be the head of the military department some time ago. Li Long immediately referred to the number four from the number four, and the position was second only to the vacant number one, so everyone thought, Luo Wuyang said If this is the case, it is dissatisfied with Li Long
The flattery army was ordered to advance north to reinforce the imperial capital. Now the 60,000 Zhangwu army staying in Hangzhou is the 60,000 Zhangwu army. Although they all suffered heavy losses in the battle of the imperial capital, the Zhangwu army and the Prairie army have almost lost all of them in field battles. After all, when the Lord Luo Wuyang went south with the Chaotang, he had less than 15,000 troops around him. It took a few months before he recovered to 60,000. But everyone knows that the Zhangwu Army is almost a new barracks. Is synonymous with, sent to the Imperial Plains is to die,
" Yes, I bought something like that with 500,000 taels of silver. No wonder General Yang Zi on the front line is going to be defeated! "The palace is full of discussions, and the loudest voice is actually the one who has been watching Li in the past. The civil servants with the face of the family, this time they turned their guns collectively and attacked the Li family at the same time,
"A group of white-eyed wolves" What Li Long can do now is to lower his head as if he has not seen or heard anything. Today is different from the past, and the Li clan is not as good as before. The old prime minister Li Tai resigned. Even if the Li family’s umbrella is gone,
If it were before, how could this group of wall grasses dare to hum, since Zhang Clan died in the Imperial Capital, the power of the family’s wealthy family was also uprooted in that war, leaving less than a quarter of it. Hundreds of years of deterrence have been weakened to the weakest era in hundreds of years
The emperor changed Fang's power to reorganize the family to establish his true kingship. The Li Clan lost power and where the position of the prime minister of the empire was left in the air, the civil servants were naturally suffocated and wanted to express themselves. Everyone could see it. Now, Li Tai's resignation was not entirely proactive, but because the emperor’s patience had almost reached the bottom line,
The emperor is about to do it. The era of the Li **** of civil servants is over, and the civil servants are looking forward to it,
The four main gates, the Li and Zhang clan control the civil and military parties, the Tang clan is basically the emperor’s doglegs, the Song clan is far in the south, and has always lived his life behind closed doors. There is no such thing in the court. The right to speak is only a symbolic first-class clan. When the empire was stable, the emperor had to rely on the Li and Zhang clans to support the court, so he was polite to both clans, but now the empire is in troubled times, and the emperor is quite a good one. The ambitious hero, the Zhang clan has already died in the emperor, and the military power is in the hands of the emperor.
As the leader of the gate clansman, the Li clan seemed too obtrusive. If the prime minister, Mrs. Li, did not resign himself, he would be forcing the emperor to act on the Li clan. Many people were originally. I want to see how the Li clan will be uprooted by the emperor, watching the huge monster that Ge is crushing on everyone's heads collapses.
Who knows that Li Tai deserves to be a fierce veteran killed in countless winds and waves. He never hesitates when he should let go. He has a very precise grasp of the emperor’s mind. The emperor’s power has been firmly controlled by the emperor since the fiasco. , Now the emperor wants to ask for power. The Li family retreated to second place, gave up the position of prime minister, and even took the initiative to draw a clear line with the ministers, handed over the control of the ministers, and said that he would never interfere in the affairs of the court again. In exchange for Li Long’s position in the military cabinet but rose,
Military power is in the hands of the emperor, so no matter how Li Long rises, it is actually in the palm of the emperor. This is Li Tai's brilliance. From the opposite of the emperor, he stood in the queue of the emperor’s loyal subordinates. Inside,
The defeat of Surabaya. It was an accident. The emperor would not embarrass the Li clan because of this influence, otherwise there would be no family willing to take refuge in sincerely. But the appropriate punishment is affirmative, if possible, just pretend to be deaf and dumb! Li Long reported the situation to the patriarch Li Tai the first time, and also got the guidance of the old patriarch Li Tai.
"Do you pretend to be deaf?"
Li Long nodded his head consciously, as expected to be the old patriarch. At this time, it's useless to say more. The facts are there. It is the emperor's meaning to buy ten Thors at random when signing the contract. But the executor is himself, and Li Yuehua is on the Falcon Empire. If he doesn't come out to carry it, can it be done by the emperor? And now it’s not the time when Li’s clan power was invaded. The Prairie Army has already reached the imperial capital. Although reinforcements have been mobilized everywhere and it seems to have laid a net of heaven and earth, Li Long is not optimistic about the battle of the imperial capital.
The Dragon Family of the Western Army went to rescue, but was appointed by the emperor as the guard of Yanzhou, but the control of the Western Army was handed over to the Song people in the south. I also hope that the Western Army in Yanzhou will fight desperately. This is not an international start. Are you kidding me?
The Luzhou Army’s combat power and equipment are okay. The problem is that it has just withdrawn from Yanzhou in the north and is exhausted. On behalf of the military cabinet, Li Long specially went to condolences. That scene is almost like a beggar. I really don’t know it. Why did you come back alive from the blade of the prairie people? It hasn't been ten days since the refurbishment, and the Luzhou army, which had just been scattered back to the army, was sent north again. How to get in? The mobilization of the army, the preparation of materials, how can it be moved in less than ten days!
One hundred thousand flattering army drove to the Imperial Capital as scheduled, and it seems that the battle has stabilized
But Li Long knows that half of the recruits in the flattering army are not fully equipped with weapons. Many soldiers still have wooden barbed guns. How can such an army fight against the Prairie Army?
It’s too short a time. The emperor’s catastrophe turned the entire city into fly ashes. Not only the civilians who died were civilians, but also the hundreds of thousands of military craftsmen and talents from all walks of life accumulated during the centuries of the Central and Bahia Empire. , These talents are the heaviest price of the empire,
The military forging system that took over a hundred years to establish in Central and Bialand was destroyed by the prairie people in the First World War, and the court moved to the south. Most of the relocations were literature and historical classics. I never thought about the life and death of military craftsmen. As a result, it turned out that the number of craftsmen here was very small, and almost all of the skilled military craftsmen were monopolized by the Luzhou Army. If it weren’t for the military pavilion to forcibly borrow five thousand craftsmen from Luzhou, the empire would not even be able to weapons and equipment. To ensure the supply, let alone to arm an army of 100,000 people in a short period of time, so the battlefield of the Imperial War, that is, when it looks like a rainbow on the surface, when the real battle is about to die, except for Yang Zi’s three Wandi Beijing Army, I'm afraid that none of them can be trusted!
Li Long felt that he was distracted. The surrounding voices were still loud. The civil servants were still arguing. The military officials looked angry. The emperor was more like a theatergoer on the throne. The Li family is now the only spokesperson in the court, and he has been pushed to the cusp of the storm at this moment.
In the report sent by Yang Zi, apart from mentioning the forced crossing of the steppe army, a large part of it was saying that the imperial Thor was useless,
In fact, even Li Long himself felt that spending half a million taels of silver on the purchase of Imperial Thor was a bit too sloppy. If I hadn’t heard of Li Yuehua’s strong recommendation, I also watched a Thor’s trial. Will buy it! Thor's thing also looks great, but it's useless if it's really used!
"For the defeat of Surabaya, the Military Ministry is to blame. Master Li Long has already asked himself to ban him for a month. At the same time, the Li Clan has given out one hundred thousand taels of silver as compensation for the soldiers who died in the war!"
The court meeting was over. Li Long, who had just been promoted to the military pavilion temporarily, returned to the fourth position. At the same time, news of the punishment of the Li sect spread throughout Hanglin. Li Long banned his foot and the Li sect The scenery was no longer, it was when I helped rise up. After the court was dismissed, the most luxurious forest garden in Hanglin City, the first glass of wine filled with wine, was put into the river water in the forest garden by the civil servants. In the past, these Drinks need to be paddled and delivered to Li Sang respectfully. Today, the civil servants congratulated each other and regarded this palace meeting as a major victory against the family's clan~IndoMTL.com~The military ministers value Li Longjin more. The position of the head of the military cabinet was vacated by the province. As the third person, Luo Wuyang was the first to preside over the military meeting in the Ministry of Justice Council Hall, showing that he is the real principal of the military cabinet. At the meeting, Luo Wuyang spoke out bluntly
" The head of a good civil servant is not appropriate, but he came to the muddy water of my warrior. I really thought that I had been in the north of Yanzhou for more than ten years after seeing the wind and cold snow, I thought I had the essence and thought I could make a decision to win the thousand lire? A joke? , If it’s such a simple thing, then I, Luo Wuyang, have fought a lifetime battle. Wouldn’t it be possible to stare the enemy to death with my eyes?"
The spring rain in April cut off the light of the lake in Hanglin, and sprinkled the cold and miserable spring rain on the earth,
walked to the carriage waiting outside the door, Li Yuehua glanced at the direction of the residence of the Li Family for the last time. She was going back to the southwest. It took a lot of hard work to get Thor, which was completely regarded as a waste by the Chinese military. So much so that the Li family was implicated, so that the progress made by the Li Clan in exchange for being a master was beaten back to its original form. For a leading family, it can be said that decades of hard work were destroyed. Li Long banned it. , Even after the ban is lifted, I’m afraid I won’t be able to make any progress in the military cabinet.
The Li family didn’t say anything, but when he stood in front of the Li Clan’s gate, the attitude of closing the gate had already explained everything. If you don’t leave now, will you continue to be humiliated here?
