Chapter 314: Catch him plucking wool
At the moment of embarrassment, Princess Zhenguo stood up.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to escort the grain and grass to the north."
Although the emperor was disappointed with the fourth prince, he was relieved to have someone to take care of his errands.
Just as he was about to agree, Master Song suddenly stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, I think the Duke is not suitable to escort grain and grass."
"Why?"
The emperor was puzzled.
"At this time, Beixiang is attacking Dayue. What we have to guard against is not only Beixiang, but also Nanzhao and Xiqi who take advantage of the danger and disrupt our border with Dayue.
As the commander-in-chief of the Chu family's army, Duke Zhen Guo should go to the south to garrison to prevent Nan Zhao from taking advantage of the situation.
Not only that, the mighty generals stationed on the border of Xiqi must also take precautions to prevent Xiqi from taking advantage of the situation. "
As soon as these words came out, many courtiers immediately started talking about it.
Some people think that Song Taifu is unfounded and alarmist.
Some people think that Song Taifu took precautions before they happened and was thoughtful.
The emperor thought of what was written in King Ding's secret letter, saying that King Beixiang had become a puppet controlled by the Immortality Cult.
Only then will the attack on Otsuki be launched.
Thinking of the evil magic of the Immortality Sect that controls people, they can control King Beixiang, but can't they control the Emperor of Xiqi and the Saint of Nanzhao?
The emperor felt that what Song Taifu said was very reasonable.
With a wave of his hand, he made the decision.
Do as Taifu Song said.
As for the people escorting the grain and fodder, the emperor looked around the heads of the ministers.
Finally, his eyes lit up and he remembered someone: Prince Qin!
There is nothing wrong with my son bringing me food and grass.
Moreover, Prince Qin must be more concerned than anyone else and will deliver the food and grass to Uncle Ding safely.
The emperor was impressed by his own wit.
Just do it.
Qin Min'an had just wiped out a group of minions of the Immortality Sect and returned to the capital when he received an imperial edict from the palace.
After receiving the imperial edict, Qin Minan complained to Chen Yunzhi speechlessly:
"I just finished my work, and the emperor assigned me a job. It's just for my money."
Chen Yunzhi smiled and said nothing.
Because after growing up, the emperor knew that if he wanted a horse to run, he should give it grass to eat.
Along with Qin Min'an's imperial edict, there was also the imperial edict that Eunuch Jiang personally delivered to Chen Yunzhi.
The Yuan family was confiscated, and all the huge family property was taken back to the court.
Everyone is staring at the big fat meat in the Yuan family's hands.
Among these big fat men, the emperor handed over the salt merchant business and the grain merchant business, which were the most profitable in the hands of the Yuan family, to Chen Yunzhi.
Listening to Qin Minan's complaints, Chen Yunzhi comforted him:
"Ahem, my husband, those who are capable work harder. The emperor asked you to deliver food to dad because he values you.
At the same time, it was also to ensure that the military pay of the Qin family army would not be withheld or delayed.
You don't want the Qin family army to have worries when they go to war. "
"How could that be? I'm just complaining to you, my wife, and I also know that it's best for the Qin family's army if the emperor leaves this matter to me.
Daughter-in-law aside, I will go to the household department now to count the grain and grass, and I will go out to deliver the grain tomorrow. "
Chen Yunzhi waved his hand, "Go, go. I have put a lot of food in the space. If something unexpected happens during the escort, you can use the food in the space."
"My wife is the best."
Qin Minan quickly slapped Chen Yunzhi on the face, and then went about his business.
Chen Yunzhi looked at his Qin Minan's back and cursed: "Old couple!"
Northland.
In order to boost morale, Beixiang coach Yehake personally went into battle to fight the first battle.
Fifty thousand soldiers from Beixiang, led by Yehake, attacked Sunset City, a border city on Dayue.
The capture of Sunset City was very smooth, even smoother than Jehak had imagined.
Seeing the Dayue soldiers who were guarding the city fleeing, Yehak laughed proudly:
"Hahaha, Otsuki's trash is vulnerable. Let's go to the city! Go grab something. Whoever grabs it belongs to whoever!"
Yehak's lieutenant gave cautious advice:
"Commander, is it possible that Sunset City was captured by us so quickly? It's better to be careful. Beware of fraud."
Yehak is not stupid, but he has his own ideas.
“The reason we were able to capture Sunset City so quickly this time was because we launched the attack unexpectedly, and it was only because Otsuki was unprepared.
I'm afraid the next city won't be so simple.
After entering the city, let the soldiers rest for a while before continuing to attack Otsuki's next city.
They must take advantage of the victory and seize as many cities as possible before Otsuki reacts. "
The deputy general said nothing more after hearing this.
They did take an unexpected advantage this time.
"go!"
Yehak waved his sword, and Beixiang soldiers entered the city in large numbers.
When the people in the city saw that the city gate was broken, they were frightened and fled in all directions.
The deputy general, who was still a little suspicious at first, felt relieved after seeing so many fleeing people.
If there was fraud, the Qin family army would not be able to let so many people stay in the city.
After all, the Qin family army is known for caring for the people.
It can only be said that they did catch their opponents off guard.
The people ran into the house one after another, and quickly closed the door after entering the house.
Yehak laughed contemptuously:
"Hahaha, a bunch of pig heads, do you think you can survive by hiding in the house?
Warriors of Beixiang, raise your swords and kill me with all your heart!
Whoever kills more Big Moon Pig heads will get more loot! Kill me! "
"kill!"
The Beixiang soldiers were stimulated by the spoils of war, and each took a big knife and slashed at the closed door.
The door to the house was quickly seen through, and soldiers from Beixiang rushed into the house with broadswords raised, followed by bursts of screams.
Yehak sat high on the horse and laughed wildly listening to these screams:
"Okay, okay, okay, you are worthy of being my warrior in Beixiang, just..."
Before he finished speaking, an arrow came out of the hole and shot toward Yehak on horseback with a hiss.
Yehak stopped laughing and quickly rolled off his horse to avoid the arrow feathers this time.
"Who! Whoever dares to plot against me, get out of here!"
Yehak held a big knife and looked around cautiously.
"Hahaha, you pig, you've been fooled!"
An arrogant voice came from the roof. Qin Jingnian stood on the roof holding a bow and arrow, and beside him stood Qin Fen, who also held a bow and arrow.
As well as countless Qin family troops armed with bows and arrows.
Without further ado, Qin Fen spit out one or two words:
"Archery!"
"Shhhhhh!"
Suddenly countless arrows were shot at the Beixiang soldiers on the street.
Yehak was shocked and had been fooled!
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
Yehak dodged the arrows and retreated towards the city gate.
However, the Beixiang soldiers guarding the city gate suddenly fell to the ground, and the city gate that was open just now was slammed shut without anyone approaching.
The Beixiang soldiers saw this scene with a look of horror in their eyes.
"Ghost, ghost, there is a ghost!"
Yehak slapped the soldier who shouted ghost on the head:
"What nonsense are you talking about? There is a ghost somewhere. Come and open the city gate with a few people!"
Arrows were still being fired, which wasn't the worst.
The worst thing was that some Beixiang soldiers hid in the houses on both sides of the street to avoid arrows.
What greeted them was the sharp spear heads of the Qin family army.
