His words made Hongzhan's eyes filled with tears again. It's not like he hadn't thought of what Yinzhen said, but blood is thicker than water, so... that's always his mother-in-law!
Yinzhen pointed at the palace door and said, "I have said everything that needs to be said. If you go back to Jingren Palace immediately, if you dare to say another word, I will punish you by kneeling outside."
Just as Hongzhan was about to open his mouth, Dai Jia had already hurried over and covered his mouth, saying in a hurry: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will take him back now." After that, she said in Hongzhan's ear: "I know you.
I want to plead for Mrs. Liu, but the emperor is very angry at the moment, and if I continue to speak, it will only be counterproductive. Listen to my words, go back first, and discuss this matter slowly."
Under Dai Jia's comfort, Hongzhan finally said no more and left silently. For a long time after he left, Yinzhen was furious. After finally calming down, Xiaowu hurried in and held him in his arms.
He wrote a letter saying: "Your Majesty, urgent report on the situation of the army in the Eight Hundred Miles!"
Is it finally here? This sentence flashed through Yinzhen's mind quickly, and he said: "Bring it up quickly."
Xiao Wu hurriedly handed the folding book to Yinzhen. When Yinzhen saw the contents of the folding book, the calmness on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by disbelief and panic!
After reading it, he had only one thought in his mind - how could this happen? Why was it not Tsarist Russia who sent troops to cause chaos, but Jungar?
The emergency report said that since the defeat four years ago, Junggar, who had been peaceful and peaceful, suddenly sent troops to attack the defending city. The oncoming force was fierce and the number of people was large. With the strength of the troops they had, they could not resist it at all, and could only barely delay it for a few days.
day.
The urgent report was sent three days ago. In other words, it is very likely that the soldiers guarding the city have died on the battlefield, and Zhungar stepped on their corpses and marched towards the capital!
Why, Mingming Nala told them that Hongshi went to Tsarist Russia and wanted to provoke a war between the two countries. Now the war has indeed started, but it is not Tsarist Russia, but Jungar.
Could it be that... Nala deceived everyone, and the place Hongshi went to was not Tsarist Russia at all, but Jungar? Yes, that must be the case. Only in this way can the current situation be explained.
Nala, this damn woman, actually deceived them into chaos and made him misallocate 200,000 troops. Although he could order the army to come back for reinforcements, it would take a lot of time to come back and forth. Waiting for the Buddha
Biao arrived with his army, but he was afraid that Jungar had already arrived at the city.
Yinzhen clutched the urgent report in his hand tightly. He wanted to kill Nala immediately, but the most important thing now was not this. It was to immediately send troops to block Jungar's attack. Thinking of this, he quickly ordered: "Sixi,
Immediately let Prince Guo, Zhang Tingyu, Ertai, Aktun, and the Minister of War and Hubu come to the palace to meet you!"
Although Si Xi didn't know the contents of the emergency report, he had been waiting by Yinzhen's side and hadn't seen him like this for a long time. He left in a hurry, but as soon as he reached the door, he was bumped into by someone.
, the bump made his shoulder hurt. Before he could speak, the person who bumped into him had already said: "Eunuch Xi is offended. Please submit this urgent report to the emperor."
Upon hearing this, Sixi swallowed the words that were on her lips, stared at the eunuch and said, "What, another urgent report?"
"Yes, it was just sent from Shenwu Sect. It is said to be an urgent report from Master Fobiao." Before the man finished speaking, Sixi had already snatched the urgent report from his hand and returned to the palace, saying hurriedly: "Your Majesty
,Yaksa urgent report."
Yinzhen said nothing, but took the urgent letter from him and read it. The contents of the urgent letter also proved his suspicion just now. The people he sent arrived at Yaksa as quickly as possible and saw
When they arrived at Fobiao, Fobiao learned of his purpose and immediately rushed the report to Beijing.
Hongshi did not go to Tsarist Russia at all, and the Tsar had no intention of launching a war. From this, Hongli deduced that the place Hongshi really went to should be Jungar, and he immediately bid farewell to the Buddha and returned to Beijing to report. It has been many days since then.
Logically speaking, if he had traveled day and night, he should have arrived in the capital long ago, but no... no one had seen Hongli.
In this situation, there are only two possibilities. One is that Hongli was delayed on the road; the other is that something happened to him...
Yinzhen did not dare to think about the second possibility, and could only comfort himself by saying that Hongli must have encountered something on the way and was delayed. But he knew better than anyone else that it was impossible for Hongli to return to Beijing in a hurry to report the news.
If something could delay his trip, it must... something must have happened.
Fo Biao also guessed this possibility, so while submitting an urgent report to Beijing, he also sent a team of elite men to search for traces of Hongli along the way back to Beijing. At this moment, the only thing Yinzhen could do
, I just pray that God will bless Hongli and nothing will happen to him.
He couldn't even think too much about Hongli, because Jungar, who threatened the safety of the entire Qing Dynasty, still needed to be solved by him. He had to keep a cool head and never get distracted.
While Yinzhen asked Sixi to continue to go to various prefectures to convey the decree, he ordered Xiaowu to write down the order to bring the Buddha standard army back to the capital, and sent it to Yaksa as quickly as possible.
When Yunli and others stood in the Yangxin Hall, Yinzhen had completely calmed down and told them the contents of the two urgent reports. The ministers were so shocked that they were speechless. All along, they thought that starting a battle would be a disaster.
Tsarist Russia, so all its elite troops were deployed in Yaksa, but now it has evolved into this situation.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now? Where can I mobilize so many troops in such a short time?" Facing the panicked inquiry from the Minister of War, Yinzhen said coldly: "I summoned you just for this matter.
, No matter what, we must block Jungar's attack and wait until Fobiao brings the army back to support."
Yunli frowned and said: "It will take more than a month at least for the army to come back for reinforcements, but when the defenders are unable to resist, it only takes half a month to get from Jungar to the capital. In other words, we must
We have to hold off Jungar's attack for half a month before we can wait for reinforcements." At this point, he looked at the Minister of War and said: "How many troops can you mobilize in three days?"
The Minister of War said with a bitter face: "Prince Guo, how can we mobilize troops in three days? If we have seven or eight days, I may be able to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops, and we are still in Fengtai Camp, Tongzhou Camp, etc."
When all the troops that are supposed to protect the safety of Gyeonggi are included.”
"In other words, you can't actually mobilize many troops?" Facing Yunli's words, he nodded and said, "Yes, it takes time to mobilize troops. If you want to mobilize an army of two to three hundred thousand, it will take at least a month."
