Unparalleled Concubine

Seeing that He Song was so determined, Zhao Yi naturally couldn't say anything more. After saluting to the old man, he quietly left He's house.

At this time, it is not easy to get in and out of the capital. It is relatively simple to enter the capital, but it is really difficult to get out. After all, the nobles in Yongle Square now want to leave the capital to avoid disaster, so Zhao who has already entered the capital Yi didn't intend to go out anymore, he conveyed He Song's thoughts to Li Xin through Anbu, and then quietly stayed in the capital, waiting for Li Xin's reply.

Just when Li Xin was trying to control the two battalions of the Imperial Army, turmoil gradually arose in the imperial court in the capital.

Before the Southwest Army hit the capital, no one in the capital, including the ordinary people, thought that the imperial court’s forbidden army would lose. After all, the Jin Dynasty had been invincible for nearly 50 years, and no one after Emperor Wu could compete with the Dajin Army. However, the confidence of the people in the capital was ruthlessly shattered by the Southwest Army.

First of all, in the battle when Hou Jingde led troops to attack the camp, more than 1 imperial troops died. At that time, the people in the capital could be said to have underestimated the enemy. Encircled the Southwest Army, but was defeated one by one by the Southwest Army. It took only one day to defeat the Central Forbidden Army that Dajin was proud of head-on!

The battle in Xiangyang City, the imperial court could still hide it by blocking the news, but it happened in the capital, and the incident at the door of the house, no matter how hard the imperial court concealed it, it was impossible to hide it from the people in the whole city, so after the defeat of the imperial army, , The whole capital is boiling.

What's more terrible is that under such circumstances, the battle of Xiangyang concealed by the imperial court can't be concealed. Only then did many people in the capital know that Xiangyang City, the great Jinxiong city that the Zhong family army had defended for decades, The city was broken in three days by the Southwest Army!

People are panicking!

Not only are the common people a little flustered, some people in the courtroom have also started to sit still. Some people want to question the imperial army, some people mean to recruit the Southwest Army, and a small number of people...

It is to negotiate peace with the Southwest Army.

The purpose of the Southwest Army is to let the sixth prince, Ji Ying, take the throne in Beijing, and the secret thoughts of those who advocate peace talks with the Southwest Army are somewhat intriguing.

In Weiyang Palace, even the chancellors couldn’t sit still. The minister in charge of the Shangshutai’s house, Wei Fang, cupped his hands to the bloodshot emperor, “Your Majesty, the government and the people in the capital are panicking. The imperial court must deal with it, otherwise, if this continues, the minister may cause trouble..."

The emperor hadn't closed his eyes for several days, and he was closing his eyes to rest his mind. After hearing what Fang Ziwei said, he opened his eyes a little tiredly, and said, "How much... is there in the capital?"

Fang Xiang's voice is low.

"In the past few months, all the grain in the grain depots in the capital was sent to the capital and handed over to the household department. The overall supply is still sufficient, and it can support the entire capital for more than a year."

"It is good to have food."

The emperor said weakly: "I will send Qianniuwei to take care of these grains, and at the same time, the Ministry of Households will also send people to guard the major grain shops in the capital. No matter who it is, they must not take the opportunity to raise grain prices to make money. Sent to the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, and will be punished strictly."

Whether it is governing the country or the city, if you want to stabilize the people, the most important thing is to stabilize the price of food. If the price of food is stable, people will not be in chaos.

This principle was learned from Li Xin in Jing'an Hou's mansion when he was the prince, who would have thought that he would actually use it in a short time.

Fang Ziwei waited for someone to nod, and then the house minister hesitated, and said: "Your Majesty, besides this, the imperial court should make some adjustments to the imperial army, otherwise people will still use this to make trouble..."

"Adjust the forbidden army?"

The Son of Heaven opened his eyes and asked lightly, "How to adjust?"

The house took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, although the old general Zhong is the pillar of the court, he is old after all, and his energy is not very strong. At this time, the Imperial Army has been defeated one after another, and the court always has to make a statement. The result of the discussion between the Zaifus is...to temporarily replace the old general Zhong..."

"Replace the Xuantong?"

The emperor looked coldly at the ministers at the Shangshutai, expressionless: "Then what you mean is, who will be the general of the forbidden army?"

"No matter who you change, you can't use an old general anymore."

The house let out a breath of foul air, and said with a wry smile: "Otherwise, no matter what the people say, even the court will be in chaos. Your Majesty doesn't know about it. Since the last defeat, officials big and small in the capital have also started talking about it. Many people have already reported their illnesses in letters, and they are hiding in their homes and cannot come out..."

"Writing a letter to report illness..."

The emperor sneered: "What kind of complaint is nothing more than expressing your opinion to the rebels outside the city. When the rebels enter the capital, those who complain at home will immediately kneel in front of these rebels!"

"Tell them that I will not change generals. Apart from the old generals, there is no other person in the capital who is capable of commanding the Imperial Army. If I don't use the old generals, can I still use him?"

Speaking of this, the emperor was expressionless.

"There is enough food in the capital, and I have ordered the supervisors to make firearms day and night. With the thunder, these southwestern rebels will never be able to attack the capital. Now it is nothing more than who can consume it."

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven coughed twice, and said, "Shangshutai is drafting, and I want to transfer the Xizhen Army to the west, and join the Yunzhou Army to enter Jingqin King."

The face of the house changed slightly.

The Xijun army is an army of the Jin Dynasty in the west of the border. It has a small number of only about 7 people. This army is used to guard against the Tubo people in the west. The army has not moved.

As for the Yunzhou Army, there is no need to say more...

In order to guard against the Xianbei people in the north, the imperial court sent two armies in the north, one Zhenbei Army and one Yunzhou Army. Now the Zhenbei Army almost no longer exists. The north will be completely released and let the Xianbei trample on it.

Fang Xiang lowered his head and smiled wryly: "Your Majesty, Tubo in the west has become obsessed with Buddhist rituals and is no longer a big threat. They have also made good friends with us, Dajin. There is no problem in being transferred back to the West Border Army, but the Yunzhou Army..."

He let out a long sigh.

"Back to the Yunzhou Army, the north side of my Great Jin... will not be defended."

There was still no expression on the emperor's face.

"It's better to lose the north than to lose the whole Dajin."

Chapter 1091 Diligent motherfucker!

The Yunzhou Army in northern Xinjiang is about 2000 miles away from the capital. Even if it is a gallop on horseback, it will take more than half a month to complete this distance. It will take at least two months for an army of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands to operate. Even longer, in theory, although the Yunzhou Army's combat power is sufficient to deal with the Southwest Army, it is too late to support the capital.

However, the current situation in Beijing is quite special.

As the most powerful city in the world, the capital is not only guarded by hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops, but also has enough food in the city. In addition, the Southwest Army has not besieged the city. The capital is completely cut off from the outside world, and the combat power of the Southwest Army is not enough to withstand Hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops broke through the city abruptly and rushed into the capital.

As long as Emperor Yuanzhao is not stupid, just guarding like this, and guarding for another year or so, it will definitely not be a problem. As long as the Yunzhou army is willing to go south to serve the king, even if he walks slowly, he can reach the capital.

But doing so is not without cost.

Originally, the Yuwenzhao tribe was wiped out by the Zhenbei Army for more than half of its combat power, and its vitality was already severely damaged. The entire Xianbei tribe was designed by Li Xin for civil strife. In a short period of time or even within a generation, there was no way to look south again, but Yun Once the state army retreats, they will enter the customs without any hindrance, and use the resources in the customs to grow rapidly.

The emperors of the Great Jin Dynasty would not make this decision. After all, the Xianbei tribe is a foreign tribe. Even if the Central Plains is changed, the foreign tribe cannot be allowed to rise again, but the emperor Yuanzhao has the confidence to do this.

Because...he has already mastered Tianlei.

In the eyes of this emperor, the current Southwest Army is the big problem. As long as the Southwest Army is resolved, the court will have thunder in its hands, and even if the Xianbei tribe enters the pass, it will be easily driven out of the pass by the Jin court.

This is the reason why he dared to order the Yunzhou Army King.

…………

After the Southwest Army won the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army, the two sides had a truce for about four or five days. Then the Southwest Army began to set up catapults and bombarded the west wall of the capital with thunder.

This approach does not actually have much benefit for the siege of the city, but it can have some "heart attack" effects. People die every day on the walls of the capital, and the people in the capital can hear the sound of rumbling thunder every day. This is enough.

Just when the Southwest Army was throwing thunder against the city wall every day, Zhao Yi's news was also sent from the capital to the outside of the city. When he learned that He Song was not willing to fall to his side, although Li Xin felt a little uncomfortable, he did not feel uncomfortable. Not surprised.

He Song is from the Ye family.

Li Xin can also be regarded as half of the Ye family. His relationship with the Ye family in the early years can be called "glue like paint", and was even called "the fifth son of the Ye family". But in the final analysis, his surname is Li and not Ye. Except that the late teacher might sincerely regard him as the Ye family, no one else would think so.

Sitting in the handsome tent, Li Xin frowned and thought for a long time, then he waved and summoned a subordinate of Anbu, asking him to call Chen Shiliu, who is now in charge of Anbu.
