Chapter 701: The Minister Who Caused Trouble to the Country

Chang'an, Imperial Palace

Song Mo went to court.

The ministers were overjoyed, thinking that the emperor had finally figured it out.

The ministers asked the emperor to deal with Xie Zhan again.

Bang!

Song Mo threw the memorial in his hand and cursed, "Do I need to see how a woman like Lu Songli acts now? Do I have to do whatever Pingzhou wants?"

"I would like to ask, are you officials of Dali, or officials of Pingzhou? You eat Dali's salary, but you kill your colleagues and clean up your enemies for Pingzhou?"

This is a heavy word, and the ministers knelt down in a hurry, "Your Majesty, calm down. We are loyal, and the heaven and earth can testify to our loyalty, and the sun and the moon can testify to our loyalty."

"Every word and action of our ministers is for the sake of Dali and the people of the world, and we have no selfish motives."

" Xie Zhan should be brave enough to take the responsibility for the trouble he caused. If this disaster was caused by me, I will die without hesitation to apologize and calm the anger of Pingzhou. "

Song Mo snorted coldly, "Lv Songli did not hesitate to start a war to bring disaster to the people because of his personal grudge. How can the words of such an unkind and unjust person be trusted? Everything is just a false accusation!"

The ministers looked at each other. Even if the charges against Xie Zhan were fabricated by Lv Songli and imposed on him, the situation is stronger than people now, and they have to give an explanation.

One explanation can calm the war, why not do it?

Song Mo said coldly, "Everything is just an excuse! Pingzhou's territory is too small. Now Lu Songli is relying on the power of explosives to raise troops and cause chaos in order to expand the territory. Putting a hat on Xie Zhan is to have a legitimate reason."

"Today, I did what she wanted and dealt with Xie Zhan. Will I deal with my grandmother in the future?"

"You must know that Lu Songli not only has a personal grudge against Xie Zhan, but also has an old grudge against the Empress Dowager."

The ministers were shocked, "Your Majesty!"

"I just want to ask you, if Pingzhou asks me to deal with my grandmother in the future, will you force me to do it?"

After this, the ministers dared not say anything more.

The emperor's words were too heavy and too treasonous!

So far, they have seen that the emperor has to protect Xie Zhan in the face of such great pressure?

Song Mo, the emperor, has been on the throne for several years. The ministers don't say that they know his temper very well, but they also know it.

This time it really surprised all the ministers.

When the ministers walked out of the Jinluan Palace, they were all dejected. When their eyes met, they couldn't help but shake their heads.

Alas, their emperor didn't have a concubine who brought disaster to the country, but he had ministers who brought disaster to the country.

Jizhou, Weiyi

After Qin Heng's troops approached Yangping City a few days ago, Weiyi and Yangping have now been occupied by Pingzhou.

At present, Qin Heng led the Pingzhou army to garrison in Weiyi, Yangping and Pingyuan.

The war is advancing steadily.

At this time, the troops in the north of Dali, including the troops led by Dong Guowei, Yang Yingqin, and Xie Wei, all retreated to Yongzhou and Yanzhou, and deployed heavy troops in Hedong and Henei in Yongzhou and Chenliu and Shanyang in Yanzhou to guard Chang'an behind Yongzhou.

Dong Guowei, Yang Yingqin, Xie Wei and others knew very well that this line of defense must not be broken, otherwise the enemy would attack Chang'an.

When that moment really came, they could only die to apologize.

Qingzhou couldn't be taken care of.

All the troops in Qingzhou were withdrawn and retreated to Langya, merging with the local troops stationed in Xuzhou.

Shanyang and Langya are located on the left and right of Qinshan Mountain, and can rely on the danger of Mount Tai to mediate with the Pingzhou army.

"General Qin, where should we attack next?" asked a young general.

Qin Heng looked at the map, "It's okay if we don't go west." It's not time to attack Chang'an yet.

Dong Guowei, Yang Yingqin, Xie Wei and others dare not move, and will not give in again. They will definitely fight to the death.

Dong Jichuan smiled and said, "It's better for us to stay still than to move."

They are now equivalent to the generals of Dali.

They can stay in Weiyi and Yangping to contain the main forces of Dali.

Qin Heng agreed with Dong Jichuan's suggestion.

Their next combat goal is to involve the main force of Dali, so that Qin Zhao, Sun Congyi and other troops can strive to take Qingzhou as soon as possible. In addition, they will provide assistance to the Sun family army fighting in Bingzhou and the Fuyu army that will soon be replaced.

Yes, Qin Heng has received a letter from Lu Songli sent by carrier pigeon, and learned that Dali may send troops to western Guangdong to deal with the Li people, and Qin Sheng will lead the Jintai army to fight in the south.

Bingzhou, Leping

At noon, the Jintai army began to eat in batches.

"Sixth Master, is the governor out of confinement?"

"Yes."

Thinking of his wife and children, Qin Sheng's expression softened.

"I heard that the full moon of the little girl is scheduled for the 42nd day of her birth?"

"Yes."

Someone calculated the time, "This, it's almost time?"

"Sixth Master, let's think of a way to try to take Taiyuan?"

If Taiyuan is taken, will Hexi be far away?

"Then, I'll use this as a full-moon gift for my little girl, hehe."

Of the five counties in Bingzhou, they have already taken Xinxing, Leping, and Shangdang, and now only Taiyuan and Hexi are missing.

But Taiyuan is where the main Xianbei troops are stationed, so it's quite difficult to take them.

Hexi is cut off by Taiyuan, so they can either enter Hexi from Taiyuan, or enter from Hedong, or go around to the west to enter, but this route is the most difficult, because the main Xianbei troops stationed in Taiyuan have joined forces with the Hexi Xianbei.

Qin Sheng listened to the suggestions of his subordinates and seriously considered the possibilities. He also felt that it was a good idea to congratulate his wife and daughter with a Bingzhou.

Moreover, according to his estimation, he would be able to go back after capturing Bingzhou. Qin Sheng thought about it in his heart.

At this moment, Lu Mingzhi arrived with people.

When they saw him, Zhu Dazhuang, Chen Jinlong and others were very enthusiastic. They all knew that Lu Mingzhi worked in the No. 7 Engineering Institute. When he came, he designated that the No. 7 Institute of Engineering had come up with something new, and the governor asked him to guide them in its use. Woolen cloth.

Lu Mingzhi did bring something new. This thing was none other than the newly developed telescope from the No. 7 Institute of Technology.

But because they had just been made, the quantity was not large, so I only brought three to the Jintai Army.

When he took out the things and taught them how to use them, Zhu Dazhuang and others couldn't put it down. This thing was almost like clairvoyance.

After Lu Mingzhi taught them how to use it, he ignored them and said to his second brother-in-law, "General Qin Sheng, prepare to hand over to General Yue Shu. After the handover is completed, lead the Jintai Army to fight in the south."

Qin Sheng and the surrounding young generals were stunned. So sudden?

"This is the governor's order. All combat supplies have been assembled. You just need to hurry to Leling County to board the ship."

"Yes." Qin Sheng accepted the order, and then he asked, "Is General Yue Shu here?"

"We're here." As soon as Lu Mingzhi finished speaking, he saw Yue Shu leading someone towards them.

After receiving the military order, Yue Shu took a small group of elite soldiers and set off first with Lu Mingzhi, followed by the large army.

They first set off from Liaodong County, took the waterway to Hejian, then entered Zhongshan from Hejian, passed through Changshan and arrived at Leping. The roads in Hejian, Zhongshan and Changshan were all built as quickly as possible.

After all, they took a detour, otherwise they could have been faster.
