Chapter 34 The war starts again, the DPRK is arranged(2/2)
This change in mood suddenly made Bai Guan start to speculate.
Could it be that the Le Dynasty navy really came upstream along the Red River?
But if this thing is true, it is too shocking!
After all, according to the previous world view of the courtiers, unless the Li Dynasty could recruit hundreds or thousands of ninth-level masters who were proficient in water properties, and then work day and night to dig water channels for the passage of the army, it would be possible to achieve it.
Before the officials could worry for a long time, His Majesty, who was sitting on the dragon chair, suddenly let out a chuckle.
The extremely solemn and unusually solemn aura surrounding His Majesty's body immediately dissipated. In an instant, the Xuanzheng Palace seemed like dark clouds dispersing, and the sun shone brightly.
The officials were relieved, but at the same time they couldn't help but have doubts.
When Tao Ai saw this, he couldn't help but ask:
"May I ask, Your Majesty, whether this military report is credible?"
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he folded his military reports and put them aside, saying:
"It's true!"
As soon as these words came out, the Xuanzheng Palace suddenly became commotion again.
If the military report is true, it is no small matter.
Once the Red River waterway is opened, the world-famous navy of the Li Dynasty can march straight in. Either isolate Shicheng County, or launch a surprise attack on the hinterland of the Yun Kingdom. The Li Dynasty, which was originally not considered at all, has suddenly become a serious problem for the Yun Kingdom!
The old Taiwei Tao Ai looked ugly and said immediately:
"Your Majesty, please quickly deploy troops to the Nanpan River, either to sink ships or to build iron cables across the river to block the waterway and prevent the Li Chao navy from advancing!"
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he immediately nodded and said:
"Just like what the old lieutenant said! Decide to mobilize troops and block waterways!"
Having said this, Xiao Cheng paused slightly and then said in a deep voice:
"The situation is critical now. Immediately send an order to calm down the soldiers under the barbarian general Yang Dayan and prepare along the river!"
When the courtiers heard Yang Dayan's name, they were a little surprised.
Yang Dayan, who is stationed in Xiushan County, is indeed the closest soldier to Nanpanjiang.
Moreover, Yang Dayan came from the Yang family lineage, had a deep relationship with the harem, and once served under Xiao Chengjin, so there was no doubt about his loyalty.
It's just that although this person is ranked as a fourth-grade titled general, he is an illiterate person. In the past, his behavior was quite erratic. How can such a person shoulder the important task of guarding against the navy of Li Dynasty?
Immediately, some court officials came out to remonstrate, saying:
"Your Majesty, General Pingman is stationed in Xiushan County. He is responsible for guarding against the Li Dynasty's army and cannot be easily mobilized!"
"Your Majesty, please think again!"
"There are always many military generals in the DPRK. Your Majesty should choose another person to lead the army!"
At this time, Tao Ai was a little worried and said immediately:
"Your Majesty, although I am old, I hope to serve your Majesty!"
At this time, Xiao Cheng said decisively without any hesitation:
"Now in the middle school, Yang Da's eyes are closest to the Nanpan River, so it is most appropriate for him to be responsible for the defense. If we send troops and horses from the capital, it will be too late!"
Having said this, Xiao Cheng paused slightly and said in a deep voice:
"I have made up my mind, please don't try to persuade me any more!"
Nowadays, Xiao Cheng's prestige is very high, and he can make decisions with just one word. Even if the officials in the court have opinions, they can only bend down and obey orders.
Today's situation is just like before, Xia and Li are attacking together again.
But at this time, the situation in the Yun Kingdom is stable, the people are fully attached, the military is ready, and the military strength is abundant. Even the courtiers don't have much fear and worry in their hearts. I don't know how much better it is than the original situation.
The most important thing is that he is now sitting on the Dragon Throne. His Majesty, who personally went on the expedition and single-handedly saved the country from collapse, is the reassurance in the hearts of all the ministers in the court.
The emperor's order has been issued, and all the ministers bowed their heads. The Yun Kingdom court was once again operating at full capacity.
Countless orders for the dispatch of grain and grass supplies, and the selection and selection of soldiers were issued in an orderly manner from the six ministries, and were conveyed to the yamen in central Beijing, local prefectures and counties, and the garrison barracks. Many arrangements were issued and implemented one by one.
And among these decrees, there are two decrees handed down by Xiao Cheng himself.
An imperial edict is to recruit two wise men from the people to serve as eighth-grade soldiers.
