Chapter 78

As the New Year is approaching, the capital begins to be decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and everyone's faces are filled with expectations for the New Year. Because the late emperor died of illness during the year, there are not many decorations in the imperial city, which makes it appear a bit calm.

Prince Fu's Mansion, which is far to the south, is currently under high security. Soldiers are standing outside the mansion with spears in hand, looking around with sharp eyes. Carriages are parked at the entrance of Prince Fu's Mansion, and the entire street is blocked.

In the lobby of King Fu's Mansion, the generals from Luzhou and Fuzhou gathered together, standing with their heads held high. The old King Fu, Zhou Tongfu, sat quietly aside. His son, wearing armor, pointed at the map and kept saying something.

"Do you understand?" Zhou Weiran shouted loudly after the deployment was completed. He had no longer pretended to be useless in this matter, and his whole body was full of the ruthlessness of a soldier. For so many years, Zhou Tongfu had treated his son

It can be said that no effort has been spared in the cultivation.

"clear!"

Everyone immediately turned their attention to King Fu who was as steady as a mountain and waited quietly for the coach's speech.

Zhou Tongfu stood up slowly, looked towards the north, and said lightly: "Go and take back our world!"

"No!" The crowd was excited.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year in the first year of Jingtai, before the sound of firecrackers in various places stopped, a piece of news from the southern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty shocked the world. The Fuzhou and Luzhou armies were dispatched. Instead of attacking South Vietnam as expected, they turned their spearheads and divided their troops into two groups.

, attacking Taizhou and Longtai County from the east and west directions respectively, making great progress along the way.

King Fu raised his troops! The world was in chaos!

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, it was still a day for the officials to rest. The morning court had not resumed yet, but at this moment, the Jinluan Palace was already overcrowded and in chaos. Although the young emperor did not know what rebellion meant, he knew that something big was going on.

.

All the ministers in the dynasty had been arguing from morning to night without coming up with any countermeasures. Yu Wen Hongru returned home with a gloomy face and said nothing.

In the next few days, urgent military reports from eight hundred miles away came one after another.

"The defender of Taizhou surrendered without a fight, and the entire territory of Taizhou fell!"

"Longtai County is under siege, please send reinforcements quickly!"

"The guard at the east gate of Longtai County will respond internally to King Fu and surrender. The Longtai prefect will die in battle!"



Yu Wen Hongru's face became increasingly gloomy, and Yu Wen Chenghua stood beside him anxiously: "Old guy, you tricked us all. If I had known, I would have detained him in the capital, and we have so much military resources!"

Yuwen Chenghua's informants in the official circles of the two states were all killed the moment King Fu raised his troops. What people didn't expect was that the troops of Taizhou and Longtai counties could not hold them back for ten days, and most of the defenders

The generals all surrendered directly, which shows how frightened King Fu has been to the surrounding infiltration in recent years, which makes people shudder.

"Father, you have to make an idea. At this point, why don't we let the Nangong family go south?" Yuwen Chenghua said. Although he relied on Chenyue to win the war in the north, facing this threat to the south

Having been King Fu for many years, he really didn't dare to go.

"Prepare the car, I'll go to Duke Anguo's mansion." A wry smile appeared on Yuwen Hongru's lips. Is it possible that he also wants to come to ask for help?

Yuwen Chenghua was shocked when he heard this. Could it be that his father wanted the Chang family to go on an expedition?

Late at night, Duke An Guo's mansion welcomed a distinguished guest. Chang Hantang, the old Duke of An Guo, looked at Yu Wen Hongru who arrived late at night, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised. Chang Hantang knew why he came.

"Old man, looking at King Fu's rebellion, can you bring your son back from the north?" Yu Wen Hongru went straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Oh, old master." Chang Hantang sighed: "The border troops in Jizhou still need to be prepared for the rebellion in Beijin. Besides, they are so far apart and the army has traveled a long distance. King Fu is waiting for work in leisure, which may delay the war."

Yuwen Hongru tightened his hands in his sleeves and asked again: "In such a critical time, Duke An Guo, as the pillar of the imperial court, should do his part!"

Chang Hantang waved his hand: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that my old bones can't move anymore. Tutor, do you think you can let the Nangong family move a little bit?"

After hearing Chang Hantang's repeated refusals, Yu Wen Hongru stopped talking and stood up to leave. The moment he walked out of An Guo Gong's mansion, Yu Wen Hongru's face was already full of anger.

Chang Hantang's meaning is very clear. The 200,000 troops in the north belong to my Chang family and must not be touched. You should find someone else to go. Yuwen Hongru really doesn't want the Nangong family to go. If they lose, they will lose the city and the land.

, if we win the battle, the military power we finally wrested from the Nangong family will have to be returned. No matter how we think about it, it will not be of any benefit to the Yuwen family.

But now, if the Chang family doesn't take action, the Nangong family will have to do it.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the imperial court officially issued an order to confer the title of Duke Nangong Ba as the General of the Conquest of the South. He quickly rushed to the southern border to put down the rebellion. In addition to the close troops of the Nangong family, all the Weiwei troops from the left and right sides of the capital were transferred to Nangong Ba's command.

The moment he received the order, Nangong Ba smiled, and Nangong Yu also laughed. They had been tortured to death for more than a year. Many important military positions were taken away by the Yuwen family. Now they finally have this opportunity to take them back.

military power.

Although the Chang family is also a military family, the children of the Chang family usually serve in the northern border army. The military power in the capital has always been in the hands of the Nangong family. Each family guards their three-acre land and has nothing to do with each other. In political affairs

Help each other and advance and retreat together.

The Nangong family has 80,000 pro-army troops in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. This was created by the Nangong family. All the officers from top to bottom are appointed by the Nangong family themselves. They are the real boss of the Nangong family. In addition, there are 50,000 powerful guards on the left and right.

The army, totaling 130,000 soldiers, rushed to the southern border to put down the rebellion.

The children of the Nangong family also come from three generations, old, middle and young, but those who can use it will follow. As long as this battle is won, the Nangong family can openly place their children into various armies.

"Father?" Yu Wen Chenghua stood aside, looking at his father who looked a little ugly, and he was also very confused in his heart.

"Forget it, the matter is over, let the Nangong family go." Yuwen Hongru waved his hand, rubbed his temples, and said: "Prince Fu is not a vegetarian, even if Nangong Ba can win, I think his relatives

The army will also be completely destroyed, and when that day comes, it will be a blessing or a disaster."

"What if, what if we lose the fight?" Yu Wen Chenghua hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question, be prepared for the worst in everything.

Yuwen Hongru glanced at his son and frowned: "If we lose and the Chang family is still unwilling to take action, we will mobilize the Liangzhou border army to put down the rebellion. The Yanrong side is in internal strife. They have been fighting for a year. Liangyou border

There shouldn't be any problem. You should quickly draw up an edict and let the border troops prepare for war. My Yuwen family also wants soldiers for Chenyue and money for money. It's time for him to contribute."
