Chapter 1664: Dilemma
Zhu Houzhao raised her eyes, and there was a little light flashing in her eyes, waiting for this long-awaited battle of life and death to come soon.
Compared to Zhu Houzhao's excitement and expectations, the people here in Qinglong seem rational, and they should do whatever they should do.
However, this kind of peaceful days did not last long, and a quick message was sent to Qinglong, which finally made many people feel uneasy.
Ye Chunqiu received a hurry and quickly summoned everyone.
Many people's expressions were solemn. Obviously, they knew that if it were not for the important military situation, the Duke of Zhenguo would have summoned all the important figures so urgently.
Li Dongyang, Liu Jin, Wang Shouren, and Tang Bohu all arrived in a hurry, and everyone was silent, waiting for Ye Chunqiu to speak.
Ye Chunqiu's cold color seemed a little tense, and he said seriously: "The latest news is that the Tatars raided Jinzhou. Jinzhou is in a hurry and is in danger of falling at any time."
Originally, everyone thought that the Tatars would be attracted by the Qinglong's "Son of Emperor".
But no one expected that the Tatars were born and refused to join the Tatars at all.
Instead, they directly began to attack Jinzhou. If they attacked Jinzhou, even if the gateway to Liaodong was opened, the Tatars were not Jurchens. The Jurchens were in trouble. After all, they were weak and the court could react, they would definitely be able to suppress them.
But once the Tatars broke into Liaodong, it would be even more difficult to retake it.
Thinking of this, everyone's hearts sank.
Wang Shouren frowned and said, "No, winter is coming, why did Batumonk do such a thing? Isn't this a plan to lure the tiger out of the mountain?"
Yes, everyone thought of this, so they are now in a dilemma. If they don’t rush to Jinzhou, Liaodong will be in danger of falling. But once Jinzhou is rescued, what should I do if this Qinglong does?
The Tatars did play the advantages of their cavalry. They had no rear and did not need to guard any important towns. They could twist everyone into one fist and attack in any direction of the Ming Dynasty with all their might.
This is what makes them really scary.
"Of course I know they were luring the tiger away from the mountain." Ye Chunqiu said almost without thinking: "Batumuk is very cunning. I am afraid that this is a test of what I do. But the problem is that we have to bear the consequences. What if Jinzhou really falls? Are you sitting and watching Liaodong take the bag of Batumonk? But once the troops are divided to support, Batumonk will know that the Holy Chariot has not come to Qinglong."
The key to the problem is here.
If the Holy Lord is in Qinglong, who dares to take the risk of dividing troops to save Jinzhou?
After all, the emperor's life is the most important thing. Batumonk understands this truth, so it is both a temptation and an adventure.
If they don’t save them, they will take down Jinzhou and go straight east; if they save them, how can they save them? Where is the emperor in Qinglong? What should they save them?
When Li Dongyang heard this, he said seriously: "It is precisely because Duke Zhenguo is so careless that he is so passive now and is controlled by others everywhere."
Li Dongyang was so disgusted with this place that he suddenly felt a sense of fear. He was a veteran of the three dynasties. In his heart, there was naturally a certain idea in his heart, or in other words, his heart had his prosperity.
But after staying in Qinglong for a few days, he was really bored. He saw the haze sky, the people here were all very careful, and some merchants were dressed in gorgeous clothes, and they were all swaying around, just like the emperor traveling. He saw those who had studied and even had fame and fame, no longer wanted to study, but instead sued those rich merchants, relying on their sharp teeth to earn such ignorant money.
He could not tolerate these sands in his eyes. In the past, he opposed Shang, perhaps simply adapting to the minds of scholars to eliminate enemies in the temple, but now he has an instinctive fear.
This world cannot continue like this. It is too terrifying. It is really terrifying. The general etiquette and law are like never before. There are no academic officials, no clear streams, and no one cares what the saints have said. They only have money in their eyes, and even some scholars in the pass are talking about business here.
These cheapest merchants are actually holding their heads up here. What's even more ridiculous is that many people are ignorant and compete to show off their broadness, hoping that everyone will know how luxurious they are.
There is no faith here, no righteousness, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, trustworthiness, gentleness, kindness, kindness, filiality, courage, respect, integrity, loyalty, filial piety, courage, respect and integrity, and no one can see here, and no one can see any of them.
Li Dongyang was angry. This was anger that came from a terrifying instinct. It was always suppressed in his heart. It was shameful and shameful. He had known that Ye Chunqiu was not a good person. He had known that he would sooner or later mislead the country and the people. Look, let's see, if the saint is there and the Emperor Taizu is there, I am afraid that he would like to slash five thunders from the sky to kill this guy.
After Li Dongyang arrived, he was too lazy to go out because even if the people here knew that he was a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, they did not respect him much. Of course, there were some politeness on the surface, but Li Dongyang could see that indifference from their eyes.
On the contrary, when they mentioned a certain big boss, they immediately looked furious.
There are newspapers here, but people here do not like to read Taibai newspapers or newspapers within the pass, but naked business newspapers. Whether it is merchants or vulgar craftsmen who hurry to work, they all rushed to read the so-called "legends" published in the business newspapers.
Haha... Legend... This is also called legend? It's nothing more than a damn miner who suddenly set up a workshop and then started a family. Now he has done a big deal, built a business, and even bought sea boats to specialize in Japanese business. This... is also called legend?
Everything is inferior, but only reading is high. This sentence that has been believed in for thousands of years has become worthless here!
In Li Dongyang's opinion, this place... is simply a place where people are transformed from barbarians. No, they are not even as good as barbarians.
Li Dongyang had been accumulating anger in his heart, and it was almost time to burst out. He was too angry, but he couldn't vent. Now seeing Ye Chunqiu's unlucky, seeing Ye Chunqiu's plan failed. Not only did he not attract the Tatars, but he was frustrated by Nabatumonk. He finally felt the point that could vent, looked at Ye Chunqiu coldly, thinking to himself: "It depends on how you, boy, end in the end!"
