The next morning, Chang'an 700 miles away.

The thick bell rang throughout the imperial capital, and a day-to-day routine began between thousands of streets and hundreds of yards.

All officials walked through the palace gate and came to the Taiji Hall, and discussed the war in the northern border as before.

After several consecutive months of retreat, with internal and external troubles, Dayue's morale from the army to the court fell to the bottom; however, there is always a limit to the decline again. Northern Qi's national strength is limited, so it is a bit weak when pushed north of the Yellow River. Although the Guanzhong Army and Liaoxi Army were defeated repeatedly, the commander's ability is still there and has not collapsed in general, so it can be regarded as a stalemate with Northern Qi.

However, the reality that the fight with Northern Qi was so ugly that all officials recognized was Da Yue no longer had the Jiazi period. Da Yue, who started from a small place and snowballed across Liuhe. The soldiers and equipment may not be bad, but there were really no generals. Guo Zhongxian and Yang Chenghai combined to barely tied with the Northern Qi national commander Zuo Qingqiu. They even had time to run around Chang'an, but Guo Zhongxian and Yang Chenghai didn't even dare to sleep. The gap between this handsome talent was really scary.

If the reason is investigated, it is related to Song Ji's emphasis on literature and suppressing martial arts. Song Ji succeeded to the throne for ten years and basically killed those who could fight. Not to mention the distant ones, just Liu Pingyang and Han Zhongyu, who were intending to support Song Yu usurp the throne last year, and Dayue was second only to the two generals of the Xu family. His ability to fight was definitely better than Guan Taiwei, who grabbed his hair all day long.

If it weren't for the great military achievements and the suppression of Song Ji too harshly, how could Liu Pingyang run to support Song Yu to the throne?

Now that Liu and Han families have been killed, they really cannot find the Shuai Cai when they fight, so the court officials are naturally angry.

Although the court officials did not dare to mention Liu, Han and others who intended to usurp the throne, they could still use the past to mock the present. After talking about the situation in northern Xinjiang, Li Si of the Shaofu touched his beard and sighed:

"Oh~ Guo Zhongxian is good at defending but not attacking. Yang Chenghai is good at attacking, but his fighting style is a bit reckless. It is still undesirable to hurt the enemy by 1,000 and damage himself by 800. If General Xu is here, he has more than 300,000 elite soldiers under his command, and he needs armor and war horses, he can't even think of how to lose..."

The head coach was not allowed to name the topic, and the ministers remained silent, but they all understood the meaning in their hearts.

As the head of the military officer, Guan Hongzhuo, the Taiwei, heard this, naturally couldn't hold back his face and said:

"The current situation is different, and it cannot be compared. Zuo Qingqiu is the national teacher of the enemy country, but his talent is a real generation of heroes, and he is definitely not a fame; in addition, our dynasty has suffered natural disasters, and the four kings in the east have a different intention, and it is not easy to fight like this; there are also a generation of heroes like General Xu, who have not had many since ancient times, so how can they be born from generation to generation? Let's talk about Prince Su, both civil and military are far ahead, but when it comes to using troops to fight, he is not an outsider..."

When the ministers heard this, they also felt that it made sense. After all, Xu Buling was a little embarrassed by the face of General Xu Lie.

The day before yesterday, Guan Hongye sent the letter, and all the civil and military officials were stunned.

When I watched the astrological constellations at night, I felt that it was OK, so I led two thousand troops to go around the back and attack Nanyang.

Is this a decision that a person with a normal mind can make?

He waved his hand and asked Guan Hongye to send a large army to help. Isn’t that a joke!

Li Si of the Shaofu followed the topic and sighed: "Fortunately, Xu Buling did not let the Xiliang army lead 50,000, otherwise he would have been out of the pass and attacked him at this time. I, Yang Dayue, what kind of people are leading the troops..."

This was a scolding of all the military officers, but in fact, it still scolded Song Ji for making a mess, making the military general class unavailable.

Song Ji naturally couldn't scold Xu Buling. Seeing Xu Buling's letter that laughed out loud, Song Ji felt quite relieved. At least such a reckless man and a fool would definitely not be able to conquer the world. Hearing Li Si's words, Song Ji said softly:

"Xu Buling is still young and is more impulsive. It is not surprising that he will make such a ridiculous decision when he leads troops for the first time. After a few more years of hard work, he will naturally become a useful talent."

All the ministers nodded. After all, they were the son of King Su. They were still using their troops and it was not easy to take advantage of others to attack them, so they continued to discuss the war.

Just after a moment of chatting, a postman shouted from outside the hall:

"Report good news"

When the ministers heard the good news, they calmed down solemnly and quickly turned to look outside the hall.

I have been struggling with the war in northern Xinjiang these past few months. I have not heard this sound for a long time.

Song Ji also sat up a little, raised his hand slightly: "Say."

The postman quickly entered the hall. Maybe he heard from his colleagues that he had reported several interruptions last time. After coming in, he immediately said anxiously:

"Reported, yesterday morning, Prince Su and Prince Su joined 2,000 troops to defeat more than 10,000 Chu troops in Nanzhao County. Later, he led his troops to attack Nanyang. Nanyang followed and broke up and occupied the city..."

"Wow"

No matter how fast the postman spoke, he still couldn't finish his speech, and was interrupted by the uproar from the ministers.

Song Ji staggered slightly, his eyes showing a little surprise.

All the noises of the ministers also started:

"Why did Xu Buling go to Nanzhao County?"

"How come Nanzhao County has ten thousand Chu troops?"

"Will Nanyang not have a defender?"

"I have only been a few days, and the marching and siege of the city, can the horses in Xiliang have wings?"

...

Since it is a war report, it cannot be fake.

Song Ji was shocked for a moment and quickly raised his hand and said, "Continue! Have you ever guarded Nanyang?"

When the ministers heard this, they quickly calmed down, with a little urgency in their eyes.

After all, this good news is much more than Xu Buling's capture of the Prince of Northern Qi last time. Nanyang in the rear was broken, and Makou Mountain would inevitably be lost; from the Spring and Autumn Period, when Qin and Chu competed for hegemony, Chu lost this place, it was basically out of the ordinary. Even if the four kings arrived, they could only be blocked south of Xiangyang. The court directly changed from defense to offense, and changed from passive to active.

The postman held the paper tube and continued, "The Prince Su led his troops to defeat Nanyang, and the army of Makoushan returned to the rescue. Forty thousand Chu troops besieged the city and attacked it in danger. It is unknown whether the city is currently broken. General Guan Hongye had sent 50,000 troops last night to rush to rescue..."

When Song Ji heard this, his face turned slightly pale and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

When all the civil and military officials in the court heard this, they were furious.

Lu Chengan was furious and said:

"Nanyang was broken in the daytime, why did Guan Hongye's reinforcements leave at night? The 50,000 army arrived in Nanyang for at least three days, two thousand people defended for 40,000, and twenty times the strength of the troops. How could Xu Buling defend?"

The postman naturally couldn't answer this question.

As the elder brother, Guan Hongzhuo hurriedly stepped forward to explain:

"The marching deployment of Prince Su is too scattered. Guan Hongye is responsible for guarding Guanzhong and cannot make any mistakes. It is reasonable to not adopt Prince Su's arrangements. He also issued a military order to Prince Su, asking him not to lead troops to raid Nanyang..."

Everyone knew these words well, because even they didn't believe that Xu Buling could still fight Nanyang.

But if they really fight, the problem will be big!

Xiao Chuyang's face was solemn and said in a deep voice: "The fighter opportunity is fleeting. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that 'the general is not accepted by the king's orders outside.' Xu ​​Buling found that he could break Nanyang, but he would not listen to Guan Hongye's military orders. What's wrong with leading troops to break Nanyang? Since Nanyang has been broken, it means that the marching deployment is correct; Guan Hongye is on the front line, and he has not found a fighter opportunity, and reinforcements have set off last night. How can such a delay in military action be explained by a 'reasonable'?"

Guan Hongzhong opened his mouth: "Crown Prince Su said that he was watching the astrological signs at night, this..."

"So what about watching the star sign at night? Nanyang's failure means that the judgment is correct. Guan Hongye is just a short distance away from the front line and can't watch the star sign. Could it be that he can't even see a single fighter plane?"

Guan Hongzhuo was speechless.

The ministers also thought this was the case. They joked about Xu Buzhi for a long time beforehand. Although there was something to do with doubt, they were more than 700 miles away and did not understand the front line. It was normal to misjudgment the situation after hearing one-sided words.

But Guan Hongye was trapped in Makou Mountain. Xu Buling notified the reinforcements in advance and looked down on him. He also sent a memorial to the court to mock Xu Buling. After all, he thought of supporting him. This only shows that Guan Hongye was short-sighted, and his overall view was different from Xu Buling. The problem was not ordinary!

Xu Buling suddenly came like this, and Song Ji was also a little confused.

The Xiliang army invaded like fire in front, while Guan Hongye was still moving like a mountain in the rear.

Now that Nanyang Energy has defended it, the achievements are in Xu Buling, and Guan Hongye has become a "stupid general"; it is even worse that he cannot defend it, and Guan Hongye is probably able to die and apologize. If he wants to undue Xu Buling's military power, it is obviously impossible to impose a displaced area in remote areas.

But if Xu Buling had such a great victory on his face, he could not punish Xu Buling for making a contribution privately. The throne would probably not be stable. Song Ji still spoke:

"Transfer Guan Hongye and make sure he must clear the siege before Nanyang City breaks. If Xu Buling makes any mistakes, let him come and see him."

"promise!"

When the postman heard this, he hurriedly took the order and left... ——
