Chapter 378 Ask the supervisor to give Huashan a chance! 【2 more】
When Prince Ning heard this, he almost lost his breath and fainted with anger. Then he grabbed a teacup and threw it at the general.
"Then I will kill all nine of his clans..."
With a slight cough, Liu Yangzheng said to Prince Ning: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down. It's not worth it to hurt the dragon's body for Li Zhen!"
I don't know who whispered softly: "Li Zhen's relatives are all in Nanchang City, and they have fallen into the hands of Wang Shouren..."
Prince Ning swayed, took a deep breath, glanced at the officials with a fierce look, and shouted: "Who can tell me what I should do?"
Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi looked at each other and heard Liu Yangzheng say: "Your Majesty, although Li Zhen is defeated, we still have a hundred thousand troops in hand. It is impossible to break through Nanjing City with just Chu Yi's few troops.
Your Majesty only needs to issue an edict to the dignitaries and gentry around Nanjing to recruit volunteers to fight against the eunuch army, and the siege of Nanjing will be lifted!"
When a civil official heard this, his expression changed, and he immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you can't do that. This strategy seems to solve the urgent problem, but it will cause endless disasters!"
Another civil servant said: "Your Majesty, please don't forget where the separatist regimes came from in the late Eastern Han Dynasty!"
Prince Ning is not a fool. Once he gives those local powerful and gentry the right to recruit soldiers and horses, it is very likely that he will become a powerful force. Once his imperial power declines, I am afraid that the scene of the last years of the Han Dynasty will reappear.
Taking a deep breath, King Ning flashed a look of madness in his eyes and said: "Pass on my decree and ask the local gentry and dignitaries to raise their own troops to fight against the eunuchs."
"Your Majesty..."
After hearing this, several officials fell to the ground and burst into tears as if they were mourning their heirs.
Prince Ning had an impatient look on his face, waved his sleeves and shouted: "I have given up my intention, and there is no need for you to persuade me any more!"
He had no choice. If he had other ways, how could he use this method which was tantamount to drinking poison to quench his thirst?
Even though there were 100,000 troops in Nanjing, King Ning himself knew that there were not even 10,000 troops among them.
Once the city of Nanjing is breached, everything will be over. In this case, why not take a chance, even if it is possible that the powerful gentry will become invincible.
The counties around Nanjing were naturally surrendered by people sent by King Ning, and they all belonged to the new dynasty at least in name. Even most of Jiangxi was in the hands of King Ning's men.
King Ning's decree spread throughout the land south of the Yangtze River at the fastest speed, exploding like a thunder. I don't know how many people were frightened by it, but at the same time, some ambitious people were surprised by it.
In the imperial army camp outside the city, Chu Yi blocked the Qilin Gate outside Nanjing, but he was not in a hurry to attack the city. On the one hand, his own number was limited, on the other hand, he was gathering the tens of thousands of surrendered troops, and at the same time, he was waiting for mobilization from various places.
Reinforcements arrived.
In the big tent, a guard in royal robes hurriedly came and knelt down and said: "General manager, urgent news in Nanjing city!"
A young eunuch came forward and took the letter and presented it to Chu Yi.
Chu Yi put down a book in his hand, opened the letter and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Yuhuatian, Qi Hu and others subconsciously looked at the letter in Chu Yi's hand. The fact that Jin Yiwei could send the news regardless of the possibility of exposure shows the importance of this news.
Chu Yi smiled slowly and said: "What a wonderful Prince Ning, I really don't know how to thank you!"
Hearing Chu Yi's words, Yu Huatian and Qi Hu looked puzzled on their faces. They saw Chu Yi throwing the letter to Yu Huatian and said, "You guys should take a look too!"
Soon Yuhuatian, Qi Hu and others all read the contents of the letter. After reading it, they couldn't help but be surprised by the contents of the letter.
King Ning actually issued an order to the local gentry to recruit soldiers and horses to attack the imperial court. This is simply a madman's move. Doesn't King Ning know that with this method, even if he really repels the imperial army, he will be safe?
?
"Absurd, really absurd!"
Tang Bohu said with an angry look on his face.
On the contrary, Fang Li said with a sneer: "Prince Ning has really done the governor a great favor!"
Several people couldn't help but be stunned after hearing Fang Li's words, but they soon understood.
Tang Bohu couldn't help but show a bit of horror on his face. He subconsciously looked at Chu Yi who was sitting there and said in a trembling voice: "Master, think twice. If you take this strategy, Jiangnan will be severely damaged..."
Chu Yi glanced at Tang Bohu indifferently and said: "So what if Jiangnan is prosperous? How many benefits did the imperial court get from Jiangnan? It doesn't matter if we don't want Jiangnan to be so prosperous. It's better to completely smash this prosperous Jiangnan and give the imperial court a real prosperity."
Jiangnan.”
Yuhuatian laughed sharply and said: "What the Chief Manager said is true. Unless this decadent Jiangnan is smashed, the imperial court will never be able to control the land of Jiangnan."
While they were talking, Lin Pingzhi walked up to Chu Yi and whispered a few words in Chu Yi's ear.
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said, "Invite him in!"
At the door of the big tent, Yue Buqun, dressed in brocade robes and guarding Qianhu, looked uneasy. Lin Pingzhi came to him and said, "Yue Qianhu, the general manager invites you!"
Taking a deep breath, Yue Buqun slowly walked into the tent, his eyes swept over the scene in the tent, and finally his eyes fell on Chu Yi.
With a pop, Yue Buqun bowed to Chu Yi: "My subordinate Yue Buqun, a member of Qianhu, the Jinyi Guards, pays my respects to the chief manager!"
Chu Yi nodded slightly and said: "Master Yue, there is no need to be polite, just stand up and talk!"
Yue Buqun stood up slowly and said to Chu Yi: "I would like to thank the Governor."
Chu Yi chuckled and said: "Yue Qianhu killed Li Zhen this time, set fire to disrupt the rebel camp, and helped our army to suppress the rebels. It can be said that he has done a great job. I wonder if Yue Qianhu has any reward he wants?"
The Governor can report to His Majesty on your behalf..."
Yue Buqun, who had just stood up, fell to the ground again with a pop, and said with all his might, "I don't dare to expect anything else. I only have one request, and I hope the chief manager can agree to it."
Yu Huatian, who was sitting aside, glanced at Yue Buqun and said sharply: "Yue Buqun, you are so courageous. Although you have made great achievements, you shouldn't have done so..."
Before Yu Huatian could finish speaking, Chu Yi waved his hand towards Yu Huatian and said: "Master Yu, let Yue Qianhu continue speaking!"
After listening to Yu Huatian's words, Yue Buqun trembled slightly, knelt down on the ground and said with a trembling voice: "I am brave, I am willing to use my achievements to implore the general manager to leave a glimmer of hope for the Huashan faction..."
In the big tent, everyone looked at Yue Buqun after hearing this.
Everyone knows something about Yue Buqun, and they also know that Yue Buqun was once the head of the Huashan Sect, but was deprived of the head position by his disciples and his uncle.
He never thought that Yue Buqun would have such deep feelings for the Huashan Sect. Even though he knew that the Huashan Sect was guilty of treason, he still wanted to intercede for the Huashan Sect.
If he didn't have deep enough feelings for the Huashan Sect, how could Yue Buqun risk angering Chu Yi by making such a request.
Others looked at Yue Buqun with strange expressions, but Chu Yi was not surprised at all by Yue Buqun's plea.
Throughout Yue Buqun's life, it can be said that he lived for the Huashan Sect and devoted almost all his efforts to the Huashan Sect.
In order for the Huashan Sect to revive, he can make any sacrifice, even if it is incomprehensible and ridiculed by others, but as long as it is beneficial to the Huashan Sect, Yue Buqun will not frown.
Yue Buqun was indeed ambitious, but his ambition was only to revive the Huashan Sect.
It was quiet in the big tent. Cold sweat broke out on Yue Buqun's forehead. He gritted his teeth and said: "General Manager, as long as the General Manager leaves a chance for the Huashan faction, Yue Buqun is willing to do everything for the General Manager and will not complain at all!"
Chu Yi lightly tapped the table with one hand and sighed softly: "That's all, I promise you to select twenty people from the Huashan Sect to inherit the Huashan Sect, and the rest will be killed without mercy!"
Although there are only twenty places for survival, this is already beyond Yue Buqun's expectations. What he wants is for the inheritance of the Huashan Sect to be immortal. Now that Chu Yi is willing to give him twenty places for survival, how can he not give up?
Yue Buqun was pleasantly surprised. As for the other disciples, Yue Buqun did not dare to repay the extravagant expectations.
The grave crime of treason meant death. In this world, the only people in the world who could give him a chance of survival for the Huashan Sect were Chu Yi and the Emperor.
He, Yue Buqun, was not qualified to beg the emperor, he could only beg Chu Yi.
"I pay my respects to the Chief Supervisor!"
Chu Yi looked at Yue Buqun's grateful expression and sighed in his heart: "Go and meet Linghu Chong!"
Yue Buqun took a deep breath, gave Chu Yi a big salute, and slowly left the tent.
King Ning's edict spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River. A few days later, Anqing fell. Wang Shouren personally led an army out of Nanchang to seize Jiujiang and attacked the city of Anqing.
There were only a few thousand defenders in Anqing City. In shock, they were directly attacked by Wang Shouren. Then Wang Shouren went down the river. In just a few days, he descended several cities and successfully reached Nanjing City.
Chu Yi looked at the large ships going down the river from a distance. Groups of soldiers were filing down, and a chilling air hit his face.
Seeing these soldiers exuding evil spirits, Chu Yi couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
It has to be said that Wang Shouren was indeed a talented general and prime minister. He was both civil and military. More than 20,000 specially selected soldiers were put into his hands. After several battles in succession, they actually had a somewhat elite posture.
It has to be said that only the battlefield is the real place for military training, but all elites must go through a sea of blood before they can be trained.
Compared with soldiers who have seen blood and soldiers who have not seen blood, the gap between the two is huge.
Led by Wang Shouren, dozens of generals followed Wang Shouren and came straight towards Chu Yi and others.
Wearing a python suit and a jade belt, Chu Yi stood tall, with flags of various official positions behind him, showing his full power.
When he saw Chu Yi, a gleam flashed in Wang Shouren's eyes. He strode forward a few steps, slowly bowed to Chu Yi and said, "I'm your official Wang Shouren. I'd like to pay my respects to Lord Chu, the imperial envoy and the commander-in-chief of all the military forces in the world!"
Chu Yi looked at Wang Shouren, and he had to say that Wang Shouren's temperament had changed a lot. Not to mention Wang Shouren's breakthrough in cultivation, just these days when he led troops to fight on the battlefield, the elegant aura he had in the past had already turned into a killing blow.
replaced by spirit.
