The majestic sister-in-law of the Red Chamber

Lin Tian started a fierce tug-of-war with the Xiongnu in the fiefdom of the king of Dongping County, because the sudden appearance of the three hundred wolf cavalrymen of the god of death caught the Xiongnu king by surprise. The King of the Huns was also a bit wary, and for a while, the two parties confronted each other in front of the city gate. Until Situ Meng came, the city gate was as solid as gold.

Because of the arrival of Situ Meng, the loyal and obedient prince, the morale of everyone in the entire Dongping county fiefdom was high. Moreover, Situ Meng also brought the emperor's oral order to get rid of the chief evil Mu Zhiyuan. As long as the other generals can turn around in time, then You can open the net.

Although those who were arrested by Lin Tian before could not be restored to their posts, at least their lives were safe. At the same time, they were all released and became brave soldiers who defended their families and the country again, and they could take their crimes and make meritorious deeds.

As soon as this news came out, it was even more exciting, and the balance of the battle situation, which was still slightly at a disadvantage, had unknowingly begun to tilt towards them.Compared with the territory guarded by Lin Tian and Situ Meng, the imperial court encountered a lot of troubles in the other two places.

The king of Xining County and the king of Nan'an County had already established themselves as kings at the very beginning of the army, and they could not even wait to conquer the country before ascending the throne and proclaiming themselves emperors. Even their own small courts were quickly established in just a few days Well, normal people can understand that their plan is definitely not just for a day or two, but for a year or two.

Especially the king of Nan'an County, the first thing he did after becoming emperor was to abolish his current princess, the princess from the royal clan, and, together with the son born to him by this wife, were all taken by him. Abolished and placed under house arrest.

The one who was crowned as the crown prince turned out to be the right-hand man of the army of the king of Nan'an County, and now the commander of the entire army under the king of Nan'an County, the general who attacked the Dayong Dynasty this time.

It was at this time that the king of Nan'an County announced the identity of this person to the world. It turned out that he was the eldest son born to him by the first wife of the king of Nan'an County, which was said to have been lost long ago.

In fact, this child has never been lost. The King of Nan'an had already changed his face and put him by his side. At the beginning, he was just an inconspicuous personal bodyguard. Supported by the soldiers of the King of Nan'an.

At the same time, the king of Nan'an County also took the lead in issuing a call for conquest against the world, one of which was aimed at the court, conspiring to kill his original wife and son, and forcing him to marry a clan daughter, in order to annex him. manor.

Things have developed to this point, and the so-called call for conquest is just a cover, so that one's teacher can make a famous excuse, no matter whether it is a king with a different surname or an emperor.

Just when the newly crowned crown prince of Nan'an County King brought his hidden one hundred thousand private soldiers to the big city closest to the Nan'an County King's fief, and wanted to deal a powerful blow to Situ Qing.

However, he was caught off guard by the heavy soldiers who had been ambushing there for a long time. If the general hadn't received the emperor's order, he would fight steadily and never rush forward. I am afraid that his [-] hidden private soldiers would not say that the entire army was wiped out, and there would not be many left. Well, at least it's not like it is now, and about half of the people can safely withdraw to the fief of Nan'an County King.

"What the hell is going on here? Why did you lose? These one hundred thousand elites have been carefully cultivated and trained by me for decades. They are not those who only bully the people and make up for their numbers! You tell me Clearly, why did you lose so quickly and so badly! Ah!"

The king of Nan'an County yelled madly at his newly established crown prince and all his subordinates, venting his dissatisfaction. He threw all the things on the table under the table and smashed them to pieces.

All the generals who fled back from the defeat all knelt on the ground silently, and those civil servants wanted to sneer, but they all shut their mouths wisely when they saw such a tyrannical King of Nan'an County. After all, this At that time, whoever speaks first is incurring fire.

"Prince! Tell me! This time you took a hundred thousand elite soldiers to attack a small city, and you lost so many elite soldiers and generals. How did you become the commander in chief! Ah!" Nan'an The county king's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the eldest son kneeling in front of him. For a moment, heartache, remorse, and irritability, all kinds of emotions came to his heart.

"I also ask the father to make amends. That Situ Qing is too cunning! He actually wanted to deal with us kings with different surnames, otherwise, how could there be more than [-] soldiers in such a city, and all of them were trained The well-trained elite troops of the imperial court are led by the best generals! There are more than a dozen cannons on the city wall, which we did not expect before!

This was premeditated at all, even if we hadn't raised an army, I'm afraid Situ Qing couldn't bear to raise his butcher's knife at us long ago!Although we lost a lot this time, we didn't benefit the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. Compared with the personnel we lost, their casualties were more serious. Otherwise, it would be impossible not to chase us in the end and just watch us leave like that!

Father, we should hurry up and make a good plan for the future. After all, it seems that it will not work if we originally wanted to catch the court by surprise! "As soon as he became the prince, he encountered such a disastrous defeat in the first battle, and the eldest son of the king of Nan'an County felt very uncomfortable.

"Yes, Your Majesty! The prince is right! In fact, this failure is not all bad for us!" A middle-aged man in official uniform also persuaded:

"Didn't he also announce the imperial decree to withdraw the domain to the whole world when we issued the uprising call to crusade against Situ Qing? If he hadn't been prepared, how could it be so short in time? This is definitely not a coincidence!

Moreover, we have not received news from the capital for a long time, and everything is normal every time. In fact, this itself is already a very abnormal thing!If Weichen's guess is correct, our spies in the capital may have been wiped out by Situ Meng!Even those bribed officials are probably doomed this time.Or, most of them have already secretly turned to the emperor and betrayed our news! "

"Is...impossible?" The prince hesitated, and then said: "The spies we sent to the capital are all just in case, and only the father alone has the complete list, and they also They are all in direct contact with the emperor's father, and each group does not know the existence of the other party! Even the all-pervasive Jin Yiwei from the previous dynasty could not check so clearly. The one hidden in the dark that Situ Meng made How could the intelligence department dig them all out!"

"That's right, what the crown prince said is right! As for Situ Qing, he is just a puppet put up by the Supreme Emperor! In the past few years when the Supreme Emperor died of illness, he has completely carried out the old ways when the Supreme Emperor was still alive. Even those aristocrats from aristocratic families who often sang opposites with him have endured many times, how could such a person have such deep scheming!" A military general gave Wen Shi a dissatisfied look.

"That's right, the loyal Prince Situ Qing of the Dayong court is someone who has caused us a lot of trouble over the years! But we are not one or two people in the court, if he dares to arrest them all at once Wake up, that is to make an enemy of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including his brother Situ Qing!

After all, he is just a mere prince, how can he be bigger than the emperor?You know, those aristocrats are not vegetarians, and it is impossible for them to let Situ Meng do whatever they want! "Another counselor-like civil servant also refuted.

"Trash! How did I support you bunch of trash! It's this time, and I still can't see the situation clearly. If Situ Qing is really as useless as you say, how could he defeat so many people under the eyes of a shrewd person like the late emperor?" Brother sits on the throne! Without his full support, Situ Meng, a brat, can accomplish so many great things? Waste, everyone is waste!"

Prince Nan'an pointed angrily at their trembling hands, and finally looked at Wen Shi, who was the first to speak, and said, "Tell me, what shall we do in the future! This time, the two members of the Situ family The little boy has definitely made all the preparations long ago, just waiting for me to take the bait automatically! It's a pity, it's very clear who will win the game!"

"Yes, my lord!" The Wen Shi didn't pay attention to the person who mocked him just now, but waved the folding fan in his hand leisurely, saying:

"Now that we know that the imperial court is already prepared, the previous method of attacking several cities must be changed! Weichen thinks that we should adopt a steady and steady approach now. We can first encourage those tribes of ethnic minorities to go Lead the charge.

Whether it's the Miao people or other minority tribes, their fighting methods are different from our regular army. Maybe it will have a miraculous effect, and Situ Qing's army will be caught off guard!The most important thing is that no matter how many they die or hurt, it will not affect our own combat effectiveness. Moreover, if more of them die, it will be easier for us to recruit them in the future.

Although most of their places are poor and poor, the larger the area of ​​our imperial court, the better. After all, those places are rich in herbal medicine resources! "

"Well, let's do what Mr. Wen wants!" Nan'an County King nodded slightly, sent everyone away, and another person started to play chess with himself to study the whole situation.

The battle on the side of the Xining County King was smoother than that of the Nan'an County King. After all, he occupied the bitter cold land in the northwest, and his soldiers were more sturdy and fearless.

Moreover, unlike the King of Nan'an, the King of Xining always likes to work together, and his opponents are also very generous. No matter which army it is, as long as they can win, they will be rewarded generously and the soldiers are not prohibited from looting.

Therefore, at the beginning, this thug-like approach made them quickly take down several remote towns, making it impossible for the imperial court to rescue them.It's just that this kind of quick surprise attack was completely blocked when it encountered the army that Situ had placed in an important position early in the morning.

For a while, all the people who rose up in several places were completely blocked by the troops arranged by Situ Qing, and the war entered a long stalemate.
