Chapter 1026: The catastrophe is imminent

A Korean debate fell into endless noise.

This is also a solution.

Queen Mother Mu just smiled bitterly. He knew in his heart that no one of the civil and military ministers here wanted the Chu army to enter the city.

But the current controversy is that no one can stop the Chu army. After all, once the river embankment is dug, it will be a huge disaster. Since no one can do anything, some people hope to choose to live and die with Luoyang, while others believe that since they are desperate, if they surrender and welcome the people of Chu into the city, at least, they can save the lives of countless people in the city.

Queen Mother Mu didn't say much, she just stood up. Perhaps many people thought Chen Kaizhi was dead and Chen Jun was destroyed, but she actually felt that in the dark, her son was blessed by the emperor, and perhaps he was still alive.

In any case, she has to wait for Chen Kaizhi to come back. Even if the sky falls, she is just a woman and hopes to stick to it.

"The words of all the good guys are all reasonable, they are all the words of a certain country." Empress Dowager Mu was silent for a moment, looked at King Zhao who was in charge of war, and then looked at the Minister of Rites who seemed to want to negotiate peace.

"But, the Ai family wants to ask, the emperor has no news yet, but if he is really defeated, there will always be some news. Now, if the contact is cut off, you can assert that the Chen army was defeated? Even if it is defeated, how could the entire army be wiped out? What's more, the emperor's martial arts skills and the courage of thousands of men. The Ai family still firmly believes that the emperor is still alive. Perhaps at this time, he is on the way back to the capital. What are you... anxious about? The Chu people are unrighteous, and

Although the country is empty, all the people of Dachen are shared by the enemy. If we easily open the city gate and surrender, how can we be worthy of the loyal and brave people who are loyal to our country? In Luoyang City, everyone has the money to pay for money and strong efforts. The mansions of each family, the slaves put on armor, and the people also stood at the top of the city. The women were weaving clothes. Hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and eight out of ten women and children, but none of them were not offering advice to defend the city."

Queen Mother Mu suddenly stood up: "Precaution! Keep guard again. Although the Ai family also understands that the Ai family chooses to continue to defend to the death, countless soldiers, civilians and people are hanging their lives on a line, but how can they give up easily before the last moment?"

The ministers were silent, but the Minister of Rites sighed and said, "Empress, I have a word, I don't know if I should say it. The Chen army is probably destroyed. This is definitely not an exaggeration. The Empress said just now that even if the Chen army was defeated, how could it be possible that no one would come back. In fact, Your Majesty leads troops out of the customs battle. In the face of the Hu people, there is indeed such a possibility. However, our Chen army is mainly infantry, and the Hu people are several times the Chen army, and they are all cavalry. Once the Chen army is defeated, it is impossible to escape. No matter how fast it is, can it be faster than the horse? Isn't this the heaven has no way to go and no way to go to the ground? Therefore, I know that the Empress still has some hope in her heart, but at such a critical moment, you must not have this lucky thought. The Chu army is powerful, and I am afraid that the court will miss the opportunity. Once the flood floods the city and the Chu army attacks Luoyang, then the preferential treatment will be ignored."

Queen Mother Mu was angry: "Zhang Huangyan!"

This Zhang Huangyan is the name of the Minister of Rites. This time, he did not call Zhang Huangyan the Qing family. It can be seen that Empress Dowager Mu was angry: "You are also saying that there is indeed this possibility. You always say that it is possible, but you are confident, saying that Chen army will be defeated. If it is only possible, how can the ceremony of defeating the emperor? The Ai family knows that you have relatives in Luoyang. You are afraid that the flood will flood Luoyang, afraid of the plague, and even afraid that the Chu army will enter the city. But how can you eat the king's fortune? "

Zhang Huangyan hurriedly said: "I just... think... Your Majesty leads troops out of the pass, and the Hu army is actually sure to win. I have reached this point today, which is one of them. The court has done something wrong, so you must not miss this second opportunity again..."

"Enough!" Empress Dowager Mu scolded coldly: "Get back."

Zhang Huangyan dared not say anything anymore.

Chen Zhijing and Chen Yishou both looked at Zhang Huangyan coldly, trying to refute him, but seeing that Empress Dowager Mu was so angry that Zhang Huangyan dared not argue, so he naturally gave up.

At night, Zhang Huangyan returned to his mansion. Recently, people were in panic, and the Zhang family was probably the same.

The people in the mansion have already cleaned up the fine and soft things, but the city is surrounded. Even if they cleaned up the fine and soft things, where can they escape?

When Zhang Jinsheng, the eldest son of the Zhang family, saw his father come back, hurriedly greeted him, bowed to Zhang Huangyan, and said, "Father, everything is cleaned up, but Shuntian Mansion sent someone to let our Zhang family contribute some strength and work together to defend the city. His son did not dare to agree rashly, so..."

Zhang Huangyan shook his head: "It's right not to agree. Now, I think the Great Chen is over, why should I go to this muddy water? If I had to follow the Queen Mu to defend the city a few days ago, but now it's different. The Emperor of Great Chu sent an envoy to the city. As long as Luoyang surrenders, he will be fine. This shows that the Emperor of Great Chu also has a kind heart. If this is at this time, people will know that our Zhang family has sent strong forces to assist in defending the city. By the time the Chu army enters the city, there will be an extra crime. Next time, if the people from Shuntian Prefecture come, they will tell them that the family is insufficient, with only some women, children and old servants, and they are powerless."

"My son knows." Zhang Jinsheng smiled: "In fact, most of the Shuntian Prefecture dare not levy, but only dare to discuss. Even if the Shuntian Prefecture comes, he will not dare to collide with our Zhang family. Father, since the Emperor of Great Chu has sent an envoy and is unwilling to start a massacre, why? The court..."

Zhang Huangyan had a blank expression: "What else can I say? It's just that they want to resist to the end. Now there is no hope. The city is trapped. It's only a matter of time. If we resist stubbornly, what can we do? Do we need everyone to be buried with you?" He looked at Zhang Jinsheng deeply: "You don't mention this matter to others outside. In any case, I think Luoyang will be in danger. It's time to find a way out for the Zhang family. Now our Zhang family is sitting on a leaked boat. If we don't land, wouldn't the family be destroyed?"
