The system has to be used even if it is pulled

It's not that the Zhen family hasn't asked the Jia family for help. The twelfth branch of the Jia family wrote countless letters, trying to ask what His Majesty Zhao Yuanlang meant and what they should do.

However, before they entered the capital, they were intercepted by the Jinyiwei on the road, and at the suggestion of Zhao Yuanlang, they were exiled to Hei Liao.

Emperor Kang Zheng was very happy because he had reaped a lot of rewards during this period. He had confiscated several million in the south, and with other things, the total was more than 10 million. Emperor Kang Zheng was grinning from ear to ear.

The weather in early autumn is a little bit cool. It's September now and another year is about to pass.

Emperor Kang Zheng was in the Yangxin Palace listening to his military minister reporting the good news, but heart-wrenching screams were heard outside the palace.

"The Northwest was defeated, the Northern Army was completely annihilated. The Northwest was defeated, the Northern Army was completely annihilated."

Emperor Kang Zheng's originally happy face froze for a moment. He stared blankly at the soldiers coming in, and the memorial in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously.

The other military ministers were all standing there in shock. You know, although the Northern Army was small in number, they were all elite soldiers and generals, so how could they be defeated?

Emperor Kang Zheng took a breath and said, "Speak slowly, get up and answer, what's going on."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Dzungar Khan Galdan Tseren used the strategy of luring the enemy deep into the territory, and the army led by Hu Guogong Zhao Yi was ambushed. After successfully breaking out, they did not withdraw to Kobdo in time, but set up camp in Hetongbo, so they were surrounded again. The vanguard Yong'an Hou Xue Cheng's army was annihilated, and the army was scattered. Xing'an Earl Chang Yuan, Xingsheng Earl Du Longtang, Xingcheng Earl Yang Jinxin, Ankang Earl Xu Li and others died on the spot. The commander Zhao Yi temporarily lost contact. Only the first-class earl Niu Jizong and others successfully broke out and led the remnant army of less than 2,000 people to hold Kobdo."

Emperor Kang Zheng's face turned pale and he quickly became furious. He overturned the table with a loud bang.

"Zhao Yi! Give me back my army! Zhao Yi! You bastard, give me back my army!"

All the military ministers fell to their knees, especially the Minister of War and Duke Hu Liu Hui, whose heart sank. It was over. The Zhiyuan faction was completely finished this time. Zhao Yi had taken away half of the Zhiyuan merits, but now they were all ruined.

"Liu Hui! This is the man you recommended to me. This is the man you promised me with all your heart that we would have a great victory. Return my army to me! Ah!"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Everyone looked at Emperor Kang Zheng in panic as he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell on the dragon throne. Liu Hui even knelt on the ground. If the emperor was angry to death, the Zhiyuan merit would be completely ruined.

Soon a large group of people came, and even alarmed the retired emperor who was practicing Taoism in Jingyang Palace. As soon as he arrived, the retired emperor took control of the government and quickly arranged various affairs.

When Emperor Kangzheng woke up, his good father had already attended court five times on his behalf. Many of the new policies he had originally implemented had been temporarily terminated by his father.

As a result, Emperor Kang Zheng fainted on the bed due to anger after just waking up.

Zhao Yuanlang was stripped of his post as commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard by the retired emperor on the charge of failing to investigate, and was left with only the post of first-class guard.

The retired emperor began to squander his son's assets. In the past two years, Emperor Kangzheng had confiscated property and implemented new policies, which increased the silver deposits in the national treasury to more than 15 million taels. The retired emperor immediately formed a new Northern Army, with Liu Hui as the commander-in-chief, and led four battalions in the capital to attack the northwest.

As for Zhao Yi, who was defeated and begged to return to the capital, the retired emperor did not say much. He ordered the cancellation of the confiscation of his property, but only stripped him of his title and position and put him in prison.

Soon, a piece of news came from the palace that Emperor Kangzheng and the retired emperor had a big quarrel. Neither side admitted defeat. For a while, the whole court was eerily quiet.

Various orders were passed on in the army. Soldiers from the Twelve Battalions of the Capital, the Nine-Gate Commandery, and the Five-City Military Command were all on high alert. Many people in the court even suspected that the Xuanwu Gate Incident was about to break out, but the ones fighting would not be brothers, but fathers and sons.

But soon, Emperor Kang Zheng sat on the dragon throne and held a grand court meeting, while the emperor retired returned to Jingyang Palace to practice Taoism. This made everyone aware of the strength of this majesty. In just a few years, his military force completely overwhelmed the emperor retired.

It's normal to think about it. In the battle of Tongnur, five or six outstanding generals from the Yuan Dynasty died. The Nine-Gate Commandery and the Five-City Military Command were originally in the hands of Emperor Kangzheng. Two of the twelve battalions in the capital were in the hands of Emperor Kangzheng. Although the emperor nominally controlled six battalions, four battalions were reorganized under the leadership of Liu Hui and sent to the northwest. In other words, the emperor had only two battalions at his disposal.

(Some people say it is not twelve battalions? This is not enough, there are still four battalions missing. Didn’t the fourth battalion suffer a great defeat at Hetongnaoer? Only more than 2,000 people fled back to Kebuduo under the leadership of Niu Jizong.)

As soon as Emperor Kang Zheng returned to power, he overturned most of his father's strategies and directly ordered Zhao Yuanlang to be the new deputy commander and vanguard of the Northern Army to curb Liu Hui.

When Zhao Yuanlang caught up with Liu Hui, they had just arrived in Kobdo.

Niu Jizong and his men were even happy to see Zhao Yuanlang coming, because they had been having a hard time recently. There were Dzungar troops roaming around outside all day long, and they, together with the local garrison and the soldiers who later fled, had a total of only more than 4,000 people with completely lost morale.

With the arrival of Liu Hui with an army of 50,000, the situation instantly improved and the enemy retreated.

The Western Army and the Northern Army totaled 195,000 troops, but only 80,000 were actually available, because of the 140,000 troops led by Yue Zhongqi in the Ningxia area, except for 30,000 available troops, the rest were scattered on the long defense line.

In the central military tent, Liu Hui gathered his men and began to discuss how to attack. Everyone expressed their opinions, but Zhao Yuanlang remained silent.

Liu Hui frowned and looked at Zhao Yuanlang: "I wonder what the deputy commander-in-chief thinks?"

"I don't have any brilliant ideas. You are all discussing how to attack, but I am more concerned about why the more than 10,000 retreating enemies bypassed this place. Look here, they will definitely bypass our camp and head north, and then here, which must be where they are heading south."

"You mean they will cross the Great Wall and march into Kyoto!" Liu Hui was shocked. If they were to reach Kyoto, he would undoubtedly end up like Zhao Yi.

"That's right. Apart from the decapitation plan, I don't understand why this army must go north. You have to know that the north is the Russian Empire. They have only one goal, which is to take a long detour and then go straight to Huanglong."

"It seems that we have to divide our forces! Please ask Deputy Commander Jia to lead 10,000 troops and General Niu's troops to defend this side. We will go back and deploy troops to annihilate that army." Liu Hui smiled.

"You!" Niu Jizong knew what Liu Hui meant and was about to stand up to refute, but was stopped by Zhao Yuanlang.

"Okay, but I have to leave half of my cavalry here, otherwise I won't be able to hold on here."

"No, at most 30% of the cavalry."

"Then Sir Liu will lead 30,000 men to garrison here, and I will lead 20,000 men back. I don't want any cavalry. Is that all right?"

Zhao Yuanlang's statement made Liu Hui confused. He thought for a while and said, "Then we will take half of the cavalry and go back."

"it is good!"
