Chapter 1157 The Battle of the Six Emperors, the Great Han's Southern Expedition
The second year of Yuanshi.
May.
By that time, the time for spring planting had passed.
But outside Yecheng, soldiers and horses were gathered, and the Huben Army had gathered 150,000 soldiers and horses.
The first year of Yuanshi.
This year is a special year for Dahan.
In this year, the Han Dynasty was established in these troubled times.
And in the second year of Yuanshi.
It is also a special year for Dahan.
In this year, the Han Dynasty officially launched the prelude to the battle to unify the Eighteen Paths of the original land.
At that time, although Dahan had not yet entered its most prosperous state, and Hedong Road had not been acquired for a long time, although with its original foundation, it could already start supplying blood to Dahan, it was still far from being able to compete with Hebei, which had been in hand for many years.
compared to.
As for Shenglan Land, it is also a rich and garrisoned land, but because Su Dingfang killed too hard in this place at that time, it is still unable to truly provide blood for the Han Dynasty, but it can also ensure Su Dingfang's self-sufficiency.
If we wait another two years, these two places can fully supply Dahan with blood. At that time, Dahan will be at its peak. If we wait another two years, Dahan will definitely be much stronger than it is now.
However, this time, that time.
In the way of the Heavenly Master, King Wei's power is weak and it is a time of difficulty.
Especially King Wei, who had declined to the extreme at this time.
At least Xuanyuan Huang's ability in Tianshi Dao is strong enough. Moreover, although he cannot find a way out within the Great Cang, he can get a breather from outside the Great Cang through Jiang Lieshan's hands, easing the originally trapped situation.
situation.
But Xuanyuan Huang has this ability, but it doesn't mean that King Wei also has that ability.
At this time, the mighty king was vulnerable.
As for Prince Jing, his vitality was damaged due to the long war and he was no longer at his peak.
The Zhenbei Army in the northwest at least still has a certain strength and can still carry it to the Tuoba tribe for a while. And this period of time is not Wang Yu's time? How is it not the Han's time?
With the Zhenbei Army in the northwest, at least for the next certain period of time, Wang Yu does not need to worry about the Tuoba tribe for the time being.
Although it is true that since he blocked the Zhongxing Mountains, the Zhenbei Army will definitely become weaker and weaker as time goes by.
However, this matter takes time to brew and is not an immediate process.
How long has it been since then? It’s far from possible that it’s reached that point!
Therefore, the Zhenbei Army's combat strength is still there at this time!
And the Zhenbei Army is not the best barrier against the Tuoba tribe?
As for the Dongyi in the northeast, they were also severely attrition to each other with the Kingdom of the Sun. At this time, although the war situation had subsided, the initial fierce battle was not really over yet, but it had just entered a state of strategic confrontation.
It can be said that although the Han Dynasty itself has not yet reached its peak state.
But the external environment at this time is already the most suitable time for them to march south.
If he had waited two years, the big man at that time might have indeed reached his peak state, and his own strength would be much stronger than it is now.
However, it is very likely that the forces surrounding the Han Dynasty will also get a chance to regain their strength.
Therefore, when the spring planting was over, Wang Yu decided to swear an oath to fight.
In the first year of the Yuan Dynasty, Wang Yu's Han Dynasty was first established, and within a few months, Zhao Kuangyin's Song Dynasty, which suppressed the Western Army, was also established.
The succession of people who ascended the throne and proclaimed themselves emperor also prompted Huangfu Guyuan, who originally wanted to conquer the world and only proclaimed himself emperor with supreme prestige, to proclaim himself emperor ahead of schedule in the winter of the first year of the Yuan Dynasty.
After Huangfu Guyuan, the mighty king Huangfu Gudi and the Tianshi Dao Xuanyuan Huang were not willing to be lonely. They proclaimed themselves emperors last winter and this spring.
They were hostile to Huangfu Guyuan, and the other party had already proclaimed himself emperor. If they did not take action accordingly, their status would naturally be lowered.
It can be said that the only two forces in the entire Da Cang that have not made any move are the Zhenbei Army and the Zhennan Army.
There has been no response at this time, which shows that these two families are indeed not as ambitious as other families.
Coupled with the small court of Hexi Province, which originally regarded itself as the emperor's orthodoxy from the beginning, there are now six emperors within the original Da Cang's sphere of influence.
However, among the six emperors, three of them inherited the title of Cang!
The small court in Hexi Province regards itself as the orthodox royal bloodline. As for Prince Jing and Prince Wei, of course they cannot be willing to start a new business. Naturally, what they want most is to inherit the title of their ancestors.
As a result, three of the six imperial courts were Cang.
The remaining three are Wang Yu's Da Han, Zhao Kuangyin's Da Song, and Xuanyuan Huang's Da Yan.
It is precisely because of this that in the second year of Yuanshi, the Han Dynasty's Southern Expedition began, until the Han Dynasty completely unified the original Eighteen Dao of Da Cang. This period was also called the Six Emperors Period by later historians.
"Bang the drum!"
"Gather together!"
"The three armies are out!"
Accompanied by Wang Yu's loud shout.
The warriors in the army violently turned the drumsticks in their hands and beat the giant drum in front of them according to a specific rhythm.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Dong dong dong!"
"..."
The war drum beats louder and louder.
It's like a war has broken out.
at the same time.
Another long sound sounded.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The long horns were blown by the soldiers standing on both sides of the platform.
It emits bursts of powerful and vast sound, making people feel like they are on the battlefield.
In the military camp outside Yecheng, the soldiers were waiting to swear their oaths for the expedition. They were all full of energy, with resolute eyes, and they all had the belief that they would win this expedition.
As the sun rose, Wang Yu, who was already twenty-four years old, stepped onto the general stage at the front step by step amid the sound of drums and horns.
Wearing golden armor and a sword hanging from his waist, he looked even more heroic at this time, like a god coming to the world, which made all the soldiers feel heartbroken.
After he stood still, the 150,000 Tiger Army, plus half of the Forbidden Army, and the 200,000 soldiers all bowed down and shouted loudly: "I have seen your Majesty!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The roar of 200,000 people spread like thunder and spread out, and people in the entire city can hear it clearly.
"No need to be too polite, soldiers, please get up!"
Wang Yu looked serious and shouted loudly. As soon as he said a word, the roar below quickly stopped, and the huge school grounds became silent, only listening to his final swearing-in speech.
"Since the Three Kings rebelled, the world has been in chaos for a long time!"
"Up to now, not only are there thieves like the three kings who are causing trouble everywhere and stealing the capital, but there are also barbarians outside who have invaded many cities in our northern border and are spying on the Central Plains!"
"There are even rebellious ministers who have long been ambitious and want to stand on their own feet, and they are even more unwilling to be left alone!"
"I have followed the destiny of heaven, followed the will of all the people, and followed the will of Cang Huangfu, the former emperor, to establish the great Han Dynasty. How can I sit back and watch the country and the country fall because of this, and countless people suffer from military disasters and die under the sword!"
"Since the founding of the Han dynasty, I have been vigorously preparing troops and horses. To this day, I do not seek to be an emperor for a long time. I only seek to bring peace to all people with the sword in my hand!"
"I only wish to devote my whole life to quelling the war in the world, so that future generations can live and work in peace and contentment without having to suffer this pain of displacement!"
"And Huangfu Guyuan, a traitor, actually lived in Tianjing, Henan, trying to steal the sacred artifacts of Jiangshan Sheji. He was also crazy and wanted to poison the queen and the prince the year before last!"
"What a shame, it's only today that I have found out everything! The queen, the prince, the foundation of the country, the country, and the country. Although I am not talented, I am willing to use my strength to avenge my shame!"
In order to become famous as a teacher, Wang Yu not only involved the justice of the world, but also the incident of Huangfu Jingya being poisoned during her pregnancy when he was in Yanbei was directly blamed on Huangfu Guyuan.
It doesn't matter who actually did this thing. What matters is Wang Yu. Whoever wants him to do it can do it. For some things, it is completely okay to know what kind of facts they should be.
It depends on the needs.
At that time, although he was angry when the incident happened, it had been such a long time and the anger had long since dissipated, so there was no harm in taking advantage of that incident.
This reason is both public and private. As he said, the queen and the prince are the foundation of the country.
Besides, the royal family is a selfless matter. Matters related to the emperor are not only family affairs, but they are also state affairs.
Huangfu Guyuan once intended to harm these two people, so there was no problem in using this reason to send troops. Although at that time, the queen was not the queen and the prince was not the prince.
After saying that, he paused again, raised his voice again, and shouted: "All the soldiers of my great Han Dynasty, are you willing to follow me south to Henan, kill the enemy and capture the thieves, avenge the shame of our great Han Dynasty, wipe out the rebellious ministers and traitors, and return to the mountains and rivers all day long?"
When calling Huangfu Gu Yuan, Wang Yu was rude at this time, calling him a traitor and a traitor. When his Han Dynasty was established, not only did it have the support of all the people, but all the sects had become the official books of the people.
Moreover, even the Huangfu lineage also raised their voices.
Not to mention that Wang Yu, half of his bloodline is also the inherited Huangfu bloodline.
When you call Huangfu Gu Yuan a rebellious minister and traitor, you are naturally speaking loudly and from a stand.
His great character, Wang Yu, was inherited from the imperial court of Huangfu Mingze. After the death of Huangfu Mingze, there was no one in the royal family. With the support of the royal bloodline, veterans and the people of the world, he, Wang Yu, had no choice but to take up the responsibility.
Big flag.
In the future, if there are sages in the royal family, Wang Yu will still return this sacred artifact to the Huangfu family! Of course, as for what kind of people can be called sages, Wang Yu will
Naturally, you have your own set of standards for judgment.
If there is still no one who Wang Yu thinks is qualified to shoulder the important task of the country, he will have no choice but to continue to suffer himself.
After all, it’s all for the sake of all the people in the world!!!
Although he and Huangfu Guyuan jointly launched the Battle of Tianjing, at that time, he, Wang Yu, represented the Huangfu Mingze court, and his mission to destroy Huangfu Mingzhao's Nishou Zhao was just a temporary expedient.
It does not affect the fact that he believes that Huangfu Guyuan is also a rebellious official and traitor.
Later, although there was a period of honeymoon period with Huangfu Guyuan. However, that was also an expedient to confuse the rebellious ministers and traitors. The purpose was to gain time to the north of the Jingping River and reorganize the rivers and mountains.
Sure enough, now, this scene seems to have paid off for Wang Yu's humiliation and humiliation!
"We will follow His Majesty to the death and destroy the city to capture thieves!"
At that moment, some generals in the front row responded loudly.
Then, the soldiers and generals at the rear also started shouting.
At first, their calls were quite confusing, so noisy that it was impossible to hear what they were calling.
But as someone took the lead, the shouts became consistent and turned into the simplest two sentences:
"Destroy Henan and capture Huangfu Guyuan alive!"
"We must win! We must win!"
This great unity of sound was like the sound of thunder, spreading in all directions from the school grounds, echoing in the sky throughout Ye City.
Even though the military camp was still outside the city and not inside the city, the shouting was so loud that it not only spread into the city, but the sound was so loud that it could be heard by all the people in the city.
Amidst the shouts of "We must win", Wang Yu whipped out his Zhanlu, pointed directly to the south in the direction of Henan, and shouted loudly: "The army sets off! The target is Tianjing!"
The whole army was silent for a moment, and then they all shouted in unison: "Here!"
Then, the already neat team, led by their respective generals, began to move towards the outside of the school grounds in a fairly neat square formation.
It was just dawn at this time, but the mobilization of such a team of 200,000 people, coupled with the subsequent follow-up of food, grass and baggage, meant that it was already after noon when they actually wanted to leave Yecheng.
As the emperor's commander-in-chief, Wang Yu did not leave with the Chinese army, but stayed at the end.
This time, although he will be on the expedition in person, he may not be on the front line in person.
At this time, he was looking at Zhao Anling and Guan Zhong solemnly: "Uncle Anling, Yiwu, you two will have to take care of many things in the city from now on. Don't let me down."
"Your Majesty, don't worry. With the two ministers here, Hebei will not make any mistakes!"
It was not Zhao Anling who spoke, but Guan Zhong.
Zhao Anling also knew very well in his heart that although he and Guan Zhong were left to sit in the rear together, Zhao Anling knew very well that Wang Yu still believed in Guan Zhong, not Zhao Anling.
It's not that Zhao Anling is not loyal enough, on the contrary, he is very loyal, no worse than others. It's a pity that besides Wang Yu, Wang Chang can also command and move him.
Therefore, although it is said that two people are sitting in the rear together, the military power is in the hands of Guan Zhong.
Whoever has the military power has the greatest confidence! He is also the one with the greater say!
Zhao Anling even suspected that if it weren't for the fact that he was senior enough and his official position was still under Guan Zhong's, Wang Yu would have simply given the important responsibility of being in charge of the rear to Guan Zhong alone instead of giving it to him at all.
However, in the end, he is the prime minister, and Guan Zhong is just the six ministers, including the minister of household affairs. No matter what, it is impossible for Wang Yu to bypass him now. Even if it is a superficial project, he still has to do it.
