Chapter 87 Yiyang - The Battle of Fenbei! (8)(1/2)
In March, green branches had already been drawn from the trees in some houses in Yecheng, and the influence of winter was gradually weakening.
There are more pedestrians on the road.
Some women walked on the street with their heads down, wearing cone hats on their heads, and their veils covered their faces. The swinging willow waists under the tucked skirts aroused people's reverie, which made people realize that spring has arrived and infinite reverie.
Yecheng is still a prosperous scene.
At this time, Gao Wei's thoughts were not that wonderful in Zhaoyang Hall.
He sat upright on the throne, watching the ministers below quarrel and argue endlessly, and occasionally a few swear words broke out.
The loud voice caused the cabinet ministers working in the warm cabinet beside him to whisper:
"What are those guys in the Privy Council doing inside? Can you lift the roof?"
A short and fat cabinet minister frowned and looked at the inner hall. It was covered by seven heavy doors, but there was still a clear voice, like a swearing voice and vulgar language, which caused a group of cabinet ministers to frown repeatedly.
The swearing voices are so far away, can those people calm down?
"What's wrong today?"
Feng Zicong raised his head from the hill-like memorial and looked at his subordinates with a little confusion.
The official could only smile bitterly and shake his head, not knowing the inside story, so he could only say vaguely:
"Your Majesty also just ordered the envoys of the Privy Council a quarter of an hour ago to say that if they were to discuss it..."
"It should be Hulu Mingyue's battle report coming..."
On the other side, Zu Yi, who was listening to the memorial of the official, smiled slightly and looked at Feng Zicong with a slight look of pride.
Zu Yi was cured in one eye, but he still couldn't stare at the documentary for a long time. When he was tired, his subordinates would "report" to him.
Zu Yi was talented and understood what was going on at once. He looked at Feng Zicong like a proud big rooster.
This is the most valued person under Zhao Yanshen. If he could defeat him, what a sense of accomplishment would it be?
However, Feng Zicong turned a blind eye to Zu Yi's "challenge". He said "Oh" and looked at his memorial without any sense of frustration.
It's like a master who accumulates internal strength in his body and wants to punch the other person, but he doesn't accept the move at all. Zu Qi was so angry.
Of course, if you are angry, you have to take your subordinates and exhale them. So the official Zu Yi's subordinate was in trouble again.
Just as he had time to lick his dry lips, Zu Yi frowned and said, "What are you doing to stop? Let's continue reading!"
The official's forehead was sweating, but he still did not dare to slack off. He spoke fluently and affectionately. The content of the memorial was read.
He came from a noble family, and he came from the Zheng family of Xingyang, who was asked to deprive the quota of the ancestral examination during the examination.
After hearing this, Zu Qiong transferred him to his post for some reason, and his good days ended.
Because Zu Yi asked him to follow him from nine to five, as long as he worked in the cabinet, he had to appear within five steps of Zu Yi.
The most tormenting thing about making tea and pouring water, copying documents, and the most tormenting thing is to recite the memorials.
If it's just these, it's nothing. Once you're over, you can always get over it.
But the problem is that Zu Yi is not only famous, but also very picky.
What is "When making tea, put less onions and more ginger,
Hey...How did you cook the tea? Do you want to be so sick of me if you put it so tired? Cook it again!"
And when reading the memorial:
"What kind of thing did you pronounce it? What accent? Can you know Luoyang accent? Can you even read sentences?
I haven't heard it clearly, I have read it again!"
He had just been transferred to the position of the cabinet and went directly from the bottom to the cabinet. Although he was just running errands for all the cabinet bosses, he had nothing to do with decisions, but it was also a good place to be qualified and had a bright future. I wonder how many colleagues envied him.
But he unfortunately met this Zu Yi within a few days of duty, and he could only blame himself for his unluckyness...
Even the uncle of the clan could not save him, so he patted his hand and comforted him: "You can bear it anymore..."
Poor that his beard has grown, but he is still bullied by his ancestors like a child. This is really...seriously sad...
The little official held the memorial and lamented desperately in his heart.
At this moment, Gao Wei was speechless at the group of people below.
Except for those who were directly promoted by Gao Wei, the Privy Council all came from qualifications.
Of course, most of them are like honors.
Among these people, only a few people such as Tang Yong, Duan Shen, Hu Luxian, etc. have studied and have higher quality. The rest are the fighters who have been in the army for many years.
Although people who have been in high positions in recent years have been much more restrained by their appearance and civilized people, they will be exposed when the argument is urgent.
If you agree, everyone will be happy; if you disagree, you will start to scold your mother.
A few old men started rolling up their sleeves and wanted to fight in front of Gao Wei.
The blood vessels on Gao Wei's forehead leaped. The old eunuch who was waiting in Zhaoyang Palace stepped forward and swung the whisk, and said majestic:
"Silent! I have something to say one by one, how can you be so kind of like this!"
Only then did the ministers of the Privy Council noticed the rudeness, and they all restrained themselves and saluted the emperor.
An old minister with gray hair said, "Your Majesty, I think the Left Prime Minister's approach is absolutely not feasible!
Yuwen Xian is in Yiyang, Yuwen Hu is in Tongzhou, and there is also Wei Xiaokuan in the rear!
I think our army only needs to open up the passage in Yiyang and take back the lost land.
There is no need to mobilize Yuwen Xian to Anye in this way.
He even disagrees with the plan of the Left Prime Minister to attack Tongzhou and approach Yongzhou. This is really incredible!
The old minister couldn't imagine that Zuo Xiang had come up with such a move!
Regardless of whether you can win or not, what if you lose?
Not only Yiyang was lost, but Yuwen Xian and Yuwen Hu could take advantage of the great victory to attack Luoyang!
I beg Your Majesty to reject the left prime minister’s plan and order the left prime minister to retreat to Luoyang and find another opportunity!…”
Another group of people quit and retorted:
"Looking for another opportunity? When will we wait?
Moreover, Yuwen Xian used so many troops this time, his purpose must be more than just to win Yiyang!
I think Yuwen Xian’s goal is Fenbei!
Will you make another plan when Yuwen Xian arranges us to capture all the cities in Fenbei and prevent Luoyang and Jinyang from echoing the beginning and end of the city?
At that time, it will be ten times more difficult for our army to win!”
"——You can't just be so reckless and just get angry!"
"Who do you think is reckless? The left prime minister has been leading troops for many years and knows the way of fighting formations. Will he still use your teaching?" Others immediately responded.
The two sides couldn't reach an agreement and were about to start squeezing again, but they heard a crisp "bang" sound. They turned their heads and looked at the throne.
On the ground, a beautiful lacquer plate has been broken into several pieces.
Gao Wei put down his raised hand, "The hand slid..."
Gao Wei didn't want to pay attention to these people and glanced at Tang Yong who had been quiet.
"Tang Qing also read the memorial of Zuo Prime Minister and King Lanling. What do you think of this plan?"
Tang Yong stumbled for a moment before saying, "To be honest, I also think that the Zuo Prime Minister's plan is too risky..."
Some ministers who had already opposed the opinions were overjoyed. Another group of honorary ministers glared at him, thinking that Tang Yong, a young scholar, was really a rotten wood that could not be carved.
"but……"
Tang Yong had a magical turn, "I think that although the Left Prime Minister's plan is very thrilling, it is undoubtedly the right choice!"
The situation of the ministers suddenly turned back. The support for Huluguang was overjoyed, and the eyes looked at Tang Yong against the objection were similar to "The rotten wood cannot be carved."
Gao Wei raised his eyebrows quietly and asked, "How can I see it?"
Tang Yong said: "I have carefully observed the frontline battle reports these days, and I have always been a little confused...
Yiyang is just a small place, and even if it is occupied by the pseudo-Zhou, it will not hurt Daqi any points.
For me, Daqi, at most, there is only one outpost missing, which is irrelevant.
If it is lost, we can also find it back from the Fenbei line.
But why did Yuwen Hu and Yuwen Xian fight so hard and gather tens of thousands of soldiers?
I guess that Yuwen Xian’s fundamental purpose is not Yiyang at all.
He just wanted to lure the left prime minister's army to take the bait and to drag down our army..."
Hu Luxian frowned and thoughtful, and said in a deep voice:
"What I mean is that according to the war report, Yuwen Xian stationed 100,000 troops under the Luoyang city, but he did not engage in any entanglement with the left prime minister's army. He retreated to Dinglong and Yiyang generation early, and built cities in many dangerous places.
And he only defends and does not fight against our army in the field to preserve his strength.
To be continued...
