After a long time, the curtain corners of the large curtain with blue curtains were raised, and Pan Mei walked out with a knife in her waist.

When everyone saw him, they all became quiet and their eyes focused on him.

Pan Mei looked around at the crowd, didn't say much, and said directly: "Send troops!"

......

"Okay, you two sisters conspired to put me to sleep!" Shi Congyun said with a distressed face: "I can tell you, you are breaking the law and you must be held accountable!"

Empress Dowager Fu bowed to admit her mistake, and Second Sister Fu, who was almost identical to her, blushed so blushingly that she pouted and said nothing.

In fact, Emperor Shi was not so drunk that he passed out, not to mention that he was in good health, and he almost woke up from the wine in the middle of the night. When he saw Empress Dowager Fu, he didn't even think about it, so he pulled her over and started doing what he liked thing.

But soon he found that something was wrong, and the wine woke up more than half of it, because the Empress Dowager Fu was very jerky, and seeing Yi Hong, he realized that it was not the Empress Dowager Fu who took care of him, but the Second Sister Fu. Their sisters look so much alike.

Shi Congyun's panic only lasted for a short while, because he quickly realized, I am the emperor, who am I afraid of!

Second sister Fu is like a girl he once knew, different from the docile Empress Dowager Fu, this second sister is carefree all day long, full of energy, active and outgoing, like a handsome tomboy, but in fact, she is shyer than anyone else when she is on the bed.

She kept covering her face with the quilt so as not to let it out, and suppressed her voice all night, until she became hoarse.

Shi Congyun was very happy, especially when the docile Empress Dowager Fu also came over later, with two almost identical beautiful faces, one as docile as water and the other full of vitality, such a blessing is not something ordinary men can experience.

The refreshed Emperor Shi walked over a few steps, and gently took the second sister's hand, causing her to bow her head and take half a step back in fright.

He teased with a smirk: "You came here by yourself last night, it's not counted as recruiting you, I'm not responsible."

Unexpectedly, he forgot that Second Sister Fu is not a docile woman like the Empress Dowager Fu. These words aroused Second Sister Fu's anger, she immediately raised her head, and tearfully contradicted him: "Whatever you want, I don't care, I want to go back to Wei Palace. ..." As he spoke, he really wanted to go out.

Shi Congyun didn't expect her to react so strongly, he even reached out to grab her, but she still struggled to break free, and it took a lot of effort to finally restrain her, and when she pulled back, the little girl hit his chest hard, crying aggrievedly Get up: "You bully me like that, bully me... and, you want to drive me away..."

As he said that, he still wanted to break free from him and walk outside.

The scene was a bit chaotic for a while, Shi Congyun bullied Zhao Shijian, Empress Dowager Fu was used to it, when Zhao Shijian was in the mansion, he ordered him around at will, and the little girl endured it all the time, Empress Dowager Fu would not disobey him no matter how he behaved.

But he forgot that Second Sister Fu didn't have that kind of temperament, she was lively and active, with a carefree personality, and Zhenlie who would rather be broken than crumbled.

For her, losing her virginity is the biggest thing in her life, but in the end Shi Congyun used it as a joke, and she was greatly wronged at once. She will not bear it like Queen Mother Fu and Zhao Shijian. It doesn't matter if she is the emperor or not.

Shi Congyun also understood that he had overplayed his joke, and it took a lot of talking and effort to calm him down.

Finally, before leaving, he gave her a promise: "You can live wherever you want, even in the Wei Palace. I will come to see your sisters in the evening, and no one is allowed to leave."

......

Although there were some twists and turns, it was still a very happy thing. Shi Congyun was so comfortable that he almost smoked a cigarette. Even when he went to the Chuigong Hall to deal with the memorials in the afternoon, he felt that the recent performances of these courtiers went very well, and there was nothing annoying about it.

That afternoon, before it was time to get off work, Emperor Shi skipped get off work early and ignored the old man Fan Zhi's beard and staring.

Going all the way to Empress Dowager Fu's dormitory, I have to say, one dragon and two phoenixes, I really have to taste it, I have eaten too many delicacies, and when I meet a tomboy like Fu Er, a wild girl will have a special taste, which makes him want to stop.

Emperor Shi excused himself, he was not obsessed with beauty, at most he made an indelible and important contribution to the glorious and great cause of the reproduction of the human race, and he will be remembered by mankind forever and become the glory of mankind.

After Fu Ermei was comforted by him, she became more well-behaved, but there was still a great contrast between being careless and lively, and not daring to look at him on the bed, covering her face under the quilt.

......

Such a good day lasted until the afternoon of August [-]th, Luqiu Zhongqing from the Privy Council hurried to the Chuigong Hall to look for him...

Chapter 377, Land and Water Advance Together

In the vertical arch hall, candles flicker, and outside the hall there is a cold autumn wind.

The sky in the distance is gloomy, dark clouds cover the sky, there is almost no wind and grass, the old trees in the low courtyard are extremely quiet, and the high palace walls in the distance stand tall, surrounded by layers, layer upon layer, like scales .

A gust of cold wind poured into the hall, bringing with it the coolness of autumn, and the court ladies and eunuchs on both sides dragged curtains to block the cold wind for the emperor above.

In the hall, Shi Congyun sat on the top seat, Wei Min held the lamp on one side, and Luqiu Zhongqing, the privy envoy, sat below.

Emperor Shi's complexion was very bad, gloomy like water, it was clearly written on his face, anyone could see it.

The surrounding eunuchs and maids and even Luqiu Zhongqing dared not speak at this time, even though the emperor rarely punished people for some insignificant matters, no one dared to belittle them.

After all, today's emperor is different from many people. He is the emperor who will conquer the world immediately. His prestige is illustrious, and tens of thousands of souls have died under the sword. Anyone who kills will be terrified when he hears it. People say that he is not angry and arrogant. As for no matter how easy-going the emperor is, the people in the palace are always cautious, killing thousands of people without blinking an eye, no one can believe how much of his kindness is true or false.

Sitting high, with one hand resting on his head and the other hand holding the memorial, Emperor Shi gave people a strong sense of oppression. He didn't speak, and even made the air in the hall stagnate, making it hard to breathe.

The officials have the world in their minds, and they must be thinking about major events in the world. I don't know where the enemy is going to be unlucky again!

But at this time, Emperor Shi was in a different state. He wasn't thinking about major events in the world, nor was he thinking about making people unlucky, but was so angry that he didn't want to talk!Speechless!

Originally, he had already dispatched troops on a large scale this year, which cost a lot of money. He had no intention of sending troops again, and after fighting for so long, Shi Congyun was also tired. After fighting for a lifetime, couldn't he enjoy it?

But at this juncture someone came to disturb his interest.

The memorial was an urgent battle report, and it came from the south. After entering the Privy Council, Luqiu Zhongqing did not dare to delay for a moment, and sent it to him immediately.

The news in the report is very clear, and it is written concisely and clearly. At first glance, it looks like a soldier's style, very direct and clear.

In early August, soldiers from the Southern Han Dynasty crossed the border and harassed Guiyang County, the southern county seat of the Qin Dynasty, and looted the local people.

What's more, there are several non-stop harassments for more than ten days in a row, and there is the possibility of large-scale military operations behind it, because the actions are very similar.

Before the war, a large number of scouts are usually sent to attack and investigate the border, and find out the opponent's border deployment to determine the direction of attack.

There are also some clever generals who will use this to confuse the enemy and make people misjudge the direction of attack.

Pan Mei mentioned this in her letter, and pointed out that the people of the Liao Kingdom liked to use such methods. The actions of the Southern Han Kingdom this time may be a preparation for a larger follow-up military operation.

It may be said that the Southern Han Dynasty was preparing for a large-scale dispatch of troops. It first sent scouts to raid the border from various routes to test and prepare, and to open up the way forward for the follow-up army.

Shi Congyun was also angry at this point. He thought that the Liao Congress would jump over the wall and send troops to the south in a hurry. He thought in his dream that Li Yu would one day eat the bear's heart and leopard courage and dare to wave his troops at him, but he really never thought about it. After leveling the Quartet and defeating the Liao Kingdom twice, it was the little Southern Han who sent troops to him first!

He was also very puzzled, where did Nanhan get his courage?

However, Pan Mei's handling made him very satisfied. When the report arrived, Pan Mei had already made her own decision and transferred a total of more than [-] people from the Xiaoxiang Army and the local Xiang Army in Langzhou and other places in the south to Hengzhou urgently. closer to the front line.

In the memorial, Pan Mei was already pleading guilty to him, and he was threatening to beheaded for the crime of mobilizing such a large number of troops without permission.

Shi Congyun was really nervous when he saw it for the first time. More than 2 troops were not a small number, and they did not follow the procedures at all. If this was transferred to rebel, [-] troops would be enough to threaten the safety of the emperor.

But after being nervous, he immediately calmed down. After fighting for so many years, he naturally understood the reason why military orders are not accepted when he is abroad.

Second, Shi Congyun is rational after all, he has read too much history.

She soon realized that she was brain-dead, if Pan Mei really wanted to rebel, what would she do for herself.

If the Southern Han Dynasty really launched a large-scale invasion, it would take at least eight days to send troops until the news went back and forth to Daliang and the emperor's consent was obtained.

Then began to mobilize troops to assemble in Hengzhou, which would take at least five more days. By then, more than half a month had passed, and this was still an ideal state. It's cold.

What's more, at this juncture, it was he who took care of the Jiedu envoys, when the court was in the limelight and many people in the officialdom were in danger, Pan Mei and Yin Chongke in the land of Jingchu could still disregard their own safety and make correct predictions. Judgment, and under pressure, not afraid to lose his head to carry out.

This immediately aroused Shi Congyun's fighting spirit. Now that anyone dared to choose him, he immediately beckoned: "Go and bring the Sutra, let me have a look."

A few eunuchs were nimble, and quickly hung a clear map in front of the table and illuminated it with a lamp.

Shi Congyun walked around the desk, walked to the map with a serious face, and quickly found Guiyang in the south with precision.

This Guiyang is not Guiyang. Guiyang is a border county between the Qin Dynasty and the Southern Han Dynasty. After passing the border to the east, it is the Southern Han Dynasty Chenzhou. It is a sharp protrusion on the map and is surrounded by the Southern Han Dynasty.

From a geographical point of view, if the Southern Han Kingdom wants to send troops, it is reasonable to take the lead in attacking Guiyang County in the southern salient.

This also made Shi Congyun, who has a keen sense of military and women, tense his back.

Although he couldn't figure out why the Southern Han Dynasty had the guts to send troops, it didn't mean he didn't pay attention to the matter. Once the matter entered the stage of military confrontation, Emperor Shi was very professional.

He carefully checked the map near Guiyang, and began to think about the possible actions of Nanhan in his mind.

Pan Mei speculated in the memorandum that the Southern Han Dynasty might have misjudged the situation in the north, thinking that they were attacked by the enemy, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to seize nearby counties and counties, so they launched an attack.

Shi Congyun looked at the terrain near Guiyang, and felt that Pan Mei's speculation was very reasonable, because Guiyang County penetrated into the territory of the Southern Han Dynasty, like a protrusion, like a dagger piercing into the territory of the Southern Han Dynasty.

If the Qin Dynasty sent troops to the south, using Guiyang as a springboard, it could quickly reach important places such as Lianzhou, Hezhou, and Shaozhou, and launch an attack on the Southern Han Dynasty.

It is understandable that they want to take advantage of the chaos to seize Guiyang. This also makes Shi Congyun feel that this is not a simple harassment. There should be more troops behind him preparing to cross the border.

For the military, Shi Congyun has always had a keen intuition, and rarely makes mistakes.

Thinking of this, he immediately said to Wei Min: "Go, the Xuan Privy Council, the Political Affairs Hall, and the Guards Department, the people in front of the hall will attack, come to the Da Chui Gong Hall to face the saint, and say that there is something important to do."

......

That night, the imperial city was never dark and the lights were brightly lit. After receiving the emperor's edict, many high officials rushed into the palace, guessing in their hearts, and did not dare to delay at all. They entered the palace one after another to discuss matters by candlelight.

......

Thousands of miles away, south of Hengzhou, a huge dragon was moving in the night with torches lit. The water of the Xiangjiang River was dyed red by numerous sails and flames. The division is moving south on a large scale overnight!

On the land, war horses neighed, and there were crowds of people, marching side by side with the navy on the avenue by the bank.

Advancing land and water has always been the strength of the Jingchu army......

Chapter 378, The Scale of the War

At night, the candles in the hall are flickering, and the gray-black stone bricks reflect the light coldly. The halls on all sides are filled with whirling lights and shadows.

The buzzing noise never stopped for a moment. If you don’t look at the occasion or the clothes, it’s like a pawn in the street bargaining, not like the Chuigong Palace where the highest power of the empire is concentrated.

......

"Officials, I thought that the Southern Han Dynasty didn't have that ability and ambition, so it should really be just small troubles and no big fights."

"Besides, this year is not a good time to unleash the sword.

The army was only launched at the beginning of this year, and the waste was huge. The country has been fighting for years, the treasury is empty, and the people also need to recuperate.

A virtuous lord of the Ming Dynasty knows how to consider the people and benefit the common people. He needs to know that water can carry a boat and overturn it. Although officials are victorious in every battle on the battlefield, it is easy to break just after the battle. Many, if the government wants to fight, it is better to consider the ability of the people to bear it. "

Shi Congyun was very angry, the old man Fan Zhi was always against him.

Li Chuyun, the deputy capital inspector, came out and retorted, "Officials, the thieves have already robbed our people and killed our soldiers. How can we swallow this kind of thing? Is it possible that the thieves can only sit on our heads and shit? follow them.

I ask the officials to send troops quickly to wipe out the rebellious and rebellious thieves. A certain person is willing to put on a strong and sharp head, please be the vanguard, be driven by the officials, and take the lead in defeating the enemy! "

"Officials, Lieutenant Commander Li is right. Those thieves dare to kill our people and rob our people. If they don't teach us a lesson, they will make the world laugh. I am willing to lead the army to kill the thieves." The former Shu Crown Prince, Meng Xuanzhe, the Commander of the Inner Palace, also hurried out.

This guy's performance surprised him the most. Back then, as the crown prince of Houshu, he was as timid as a mouse.

Unexpectedly, he was very brave in the battle against Liao and defeated the Khitan reinforcements this year. He took the lead and made great contributions.

Han Baozheng, the surrendered general who surrendered from the Nianshu Kingdom, also performed very bravely, and his credit is not small.

So the environment has a great impact on people. It’s like being in a library, surrounded by hard-working academics. If you are too embarrassed to play with your mobile phone by yourself, you will probably study hard even if you don’t want to.

And if in the dormitory, five roommates are playing games, it will be difficult for you to concentrate on studying alone. This is the environmental factor.

The same person who was a coward fleeing in fear of war in the Shu Kingdom was also a warrior who charged into battle in the Qin Dynasty!

Moreover, these people have gained the benefits of military exploits, and now they are all excited when they talk about fighting.

Han Baozheng also stood up: "Yes, besides, although what Fan Gong said is reasonable, we must consider the ability of the people to bear it, but I have been blessed by the heavens, and the official family has been blessed. The past two years have been a bumper harvest.

There was a bumper harvest in Hebei last year, and a bumper harvest in Shu this year. The granaries are well stocked, and there is enough money and food, so there is no need to worry.

The minister also felt that it was reasonable to send troops at this time, not only to protect the people, but also to show the mighty virtue of the state and to deter Xiaoxiao. "

Everyone said what they said, and most of the generals agreed to send troops immediately to start a full-scale war with the Southern Han Dynasty and fight a full-scale war.

In the era of war and chaos, military generals had more opportunities to make meritorious service, so they had more right to speak. With so many generals supporting them, many civil servants were also coerced, and the rest shut their mouths wisely and dared not say anything.

After all, it is easy to offend all the generals in this matter, because sending troops to echo the collective interests of the generals, there is no way to make meritorious service without fighting a big war.

So except for the old guy like Fan Zhi who was unreliable and smelly and hard like a stone in a cesspit, everyone shut up wisely.

The hall was quiet for a while, but at this moment an unexpected person stood up.

The secret envoy Feng Jisheng bowed his hands and went out, and said: "The officials, as the secret envoy, I feel that this matter is really not suitable for a full-scale army.

It's not what Fan Gong said, but mainly in the difficulties of gunpowder and ordnance. The war in the first half of this year was a huge waste, especially gunpowder and artillery, which are not much in stock now.

The veteran roughly calculated that to support a war with a scale of more than 10 people, it would take at least one year, and one year of production and storage can support a war.

Of course, if the officials are in a hurry to send troops, they can use the gunpowder first for the forwards, and then increase their efforts to produce it. It can barely make the forwards win the ten battalions of the Fire Army for about a month. If the battle cannot be completely resolved in one month, it will be difficult in the future. Supply is on. "

After Feng Jisheng finished speaking, he didn't give his own opinion, but just stated a fact, but as soon as he said this, the generals immediately became quieter.

After fighting so many battles, the military generals in these armies also understood how powerful the confidentiality department is, and they know that gunpowder and cannons are good. Without the support of the confidentiality department, it is difficult to fight at all.

Fan Zhi and Wen Chen's words can be ignored, but they have to pay attention to Feng Jisheng's words, which is closely related to their war.

"Is.... can't we squeeze again?" Li Chuyun asked.

Feng Jisheng shook his head: "Making gunpowder is not an easy job, and accidents will happen if you are not careful. Skilled workers need to be cultivated slowly, and the supply of sulfur and saltpeter mines in various places also takes time, so it is impossible to quickly expand the scale in a short period of time.
