After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

The messenger's words were like a thunderbolt, making everyone dizzy.

It was not until the messenger was hoarse and could no longer speak that the onlookers realized that Yunzhou had not been lost and that Yunzhou had won a great victory!

"How is this possible! Is this true? Duke Yun defeated the Tartars with the power of an entire state?!"

"This is absolutely false! Yunzhou only has 500 guards, how can they possibly stop 30,000 Tartars?!"

"Bullshit! Didn't you hear? Shuozhou has sent troops!"

"Ah? Didn't the government order us not to arbitrarily mobilize troops or arbitrarily transfer food and other war supplies?"

"The Governor of Shuozhou didn't listen! Who said there is only one Duke Yun in the world? Now there's a second fool." Song laughed, tears streaming down his face.

Fortunately, Duke Yun is not fighting alone! Otherwise, I would feel sorry for him!

After Su Xuanming learned about this, he hurried back to Yongchang Marquis Mansion and told Cui Sanlun the good news.

Cui Sanlun was already lying in bed, unable to get up.

After hearing the news, he sat up as if he had a flash of light coming back to him. "Da Lang, take advantage of the chaos in Kyoto and leave the city!"

"Yizu..."

Cui Sanlun's cheeks were sunken and his cheekbones were high.

He shouted sternly, "Hurry up and leave! Don't hold your mother back!"

Su Xuanming covered Cui Sanlun with a thin blanket and shook his head: "If I leave, I will be a burden to my mother. Yizu, you should rest well and take good care of yourself, and wait for the day when my mother comes to pick us up!"

"Why are you doing this? I am here, that's enough."

"The government is narrow-minded. You alone are not enough." After Su Xuanming persuaded Cui Sanlun, he ran to Baihua Printing Factory and worked overtime to spread the news of this great victory to everyone!

The next day, the young emperor held an early morning court session for the first time.

All the civil and military officials had rosy faces and were smiling happily.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! There is hope for the recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun!"

Everyone can see clearly that Duke Yun will definitely take this opportunity to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and may even drive the Tartars out of the grassland completely!

This is a tremendous achievement, worthy of being recorded in history!

After everyone took turns to congratulate, the entire court fell silent again, because all the officials noticed that there was no joy on the emperor's face, but instead it was as cold as ice.

All the officials were shocked. No way, they didn’t even want to do the superficial work?

Censor Jiang, Lord Chen, and Lord Li exchanged glances with each other, their hearts sinking.

Duke Yun has turned the situation around like this, could it be that the government is still planning to do something weird?!

Master Tong narrowed his eyes and urged, "Your Majesty, it's time to send our food supplies!"

Elder Li also stood up and said, "This is a battle for the fate of the country. As long as Duke Yun takes over the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, even if he does not go north again, the Tartars will lose their defense."

The young emperor did not look at them, but called on the Minister of War: "My Lord, what do you think about this matter?"

The Minister of War felt bitter in his mouth. How should he watch it? He wanted to lie down and watch it!

Last night, the emperor urgently summoned me to the palace. I thought the emperor wanted to discuss how to deal with Duke Yun, but I didn't expect...

It’s really hard to make money and eat shit!

For this little salary, even conscience is sold out.

The Minister of War stepped forward, not daring to raise his head to look at his colleagues: "Your Majesty, I think that Duke Yun should withdraw his troops now."

boom!

The court was in an uproar.

"Minister of War, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

"When we lost the battle, Duke Yun didn't even retreat. The enemy was almost flattened, and you asked him to retreat?!"

"When Duke Yun comes back and finds out you said this, how will you deal with it?"

The Minister of War had a bitter face, he didn't want to say that!

The young emperor signaled his ministers to be quiet: "Silence! My Lord, please tell me your considerations in detail."

The Minister of War wiped his face and told all the reasons he had thought of overnight: "First, the autumn harvest is coming soon. There has been a lack of rain this year, and the harvests in various places are not good. If the war continues, I am afraid it will increase the burden on the people."

"Secondly, the army led by Duke Yun is exhausted. If she concentrates all her forces to attack Wuzhou, she may succeed. But she is too ambitious. She divides her troops into 16 groups and has no logistics. If the Tartars attack back, I am afraid the whole army will be wiped out!"

"Third, the governor of Shuozhou has pushed all the troops of Shuozhou to Yunzhou. If the Tartars bypass the army of Duke Yun and attack Yunzhou again, once Yunzhou is defeated and the Tartars enter Yunzhou, Shuozhou will be like a deserted place! The capital will be in danger."

These three reasons sounded plausible, but Censor Jiang could not find a way out of the impasse for a while.

Young Emperor: "General Longwu, in your opinion, how long will it take to conquer the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun?"

Li Aotian hesitated for a few seconds, but finally told the truth: "The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun were originally the front line of the resistance against the north, and the city is solid and indestructible! The Tartars will definitely deploy garrisons here. If there are sufficient food and supplies, it will take at least half a month to capture it!"

What Li Aotian didn’t say was that if the time for the long-distance raid was taken into account, a month would be considered fast!

Because there are so many people marching, the speed will definitely be slow, and it will take three or four days to rest before reaching the city.

These few days are enough for the Tatars defending the city to prepare for the response.

If the Tartar army fleeing northwards uses the city walls, it will be easy to stop Duke Yun's attack!

If we consider it from this perspective, it is indeed the best option for Duke Yun to withdraw his troops.

The other civil and military officials also realized that even if Duke Yun could reverse the situation, the emperor would not send troops or provide food and fodder.

What the hell is this?!

Dispersed! Dispersed!

It would be a good idea for Duke Yun to withdraw his troops early so that he can preserve his strength.

Censor Jiang also began to hesitate. The emperor was so determined. Was it really necessary for Duke Yun to continue desperately trying to regain the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun?

Even if the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun were taken back, the young emperor would not only not reward him, but would also bear a grudge against Duke Yun.

After this battle, Duke Yun and the entire Yunzhou were severely damaged, and it was impossible to change Qingtian!

Why not take advantage of the situation and nail the government to the pillar of shame once and for all?

Censor Jiang retracted the step he was about to take.

Seeing that there were no other voices in the court, the Emperor raised the corner of his mouth proudly: "Come here! Issue the golden order!"

In the Zhou Dynasty, there were three types of orders issued by the emperor to generals stationed outside the country: ordinary orders, blue orders, and gold orders.

The Golden Order was of the highest level and was issued directly by the emperor.

It was made of a strip of wood, about one foot long, and was painted dark red all over. It was engraved with [Imperial text, no entry allowed] and eight golden warning characters.

The gold medal was so dazzling that it flew as fast as lightning when it was passed around, and everyone who looked at it avoided its shadow.

The young emperor had just issued a golden order, but then he thought of Gu Nanxi's character and felt unsafe, so he issued eleven more in a row!
