I have 800,000 private soldiers. The emperor forces me to hand over military power?

Chapter 78 The siege of Yunzhou was resolved without a fight

In fact, Qin Ruhui, the treacherous Prime Minister who controlled the Daxin Dynasty, came to Kunning Palace to meet Queen Su Waner, and he did not come to the Queen to discuss the enthronement of the young prince Zhao Lingwu.

Instead, he came here specifically to inform Amelia Su.

If Su Waner agrees, everyone will get what they need and everyone will be happy.

It doesn't matter if you don't agree. The red-clothed guards surrounding Kunning Palace will take action and send Su Waner and the young prince to reunite with Jian'an Emperor Zhao Qian.

Prime Minister Qin Ruhui will establish a new king among the princes and support the puppet, which is just a little troublesome in terms of etiquette and legal procedures.

That's all.

After coming out of Kunning Palace, Qin Ruhui felt refreshed, his body shook, and his somewhat rickety waist became straight.

The old face that was once full of flattery was replaced by the arrogance and arrogance of a villain who has succeeded.

Outside Kunning Palace, the prime minister's party members who had been waiting for a long time saw this scene and immediately went up to congratulate Qin Ruhui, who was full of spring breeze, and said congratulations:

"Congratulations to the Prime Minister, congratulations to the Prime Minister!"

"From today on, the Prime Minister is the veritable Dinghai Shenzhen of our Great New Dynasty and the Prime Minister of Emperor Lingwu!"

Hahaha!

Hearing this, Qin Ruhui laughed wildly, not hiding his inner ecstasy and satisfaction.

Then, he ordered: "Everyone, now that the new emperor has been established, the news of the emperor's death in Tumubao can be revealed to the world at an appropriate time to calm the hearts of the people of the country."

"You all, get ready to go!"

"Yes, Prime Minister!"

Prime Minister Qin Ruhui walked away with a group of party members and red-clothed guards, completely unaware that there were two pairs of eyes on the attic of Kunning Palace watching them leave through the half-closed windows.

The people peeping from the attic of Kunning Palace were none other than Queen Su Waner, the young prince Zhao Lingwu, mother and son.

Su Wan'er's eyes with sharp corners and raised eyebrows lost their charming and delicate temperament in the past, and were replaced by endless resentment and cruelty.

She whispered to the young prince Zhao Lingwu in her arms and said calmly:

"Xiao Lingwu, listen to your mother, you must remember the backs of these bad guys. They are all big bad guys who want to take the land of the new dynasty as their own!"

"Mother, I promise you, you will not let these bad guys succeed!"

"I believe my mother, no one can take the power of the Zhao family from the hands of our little Lingwu!"

Listening to his mother's soliloquy, the young Zhao Lingwu nodded in understanding.

In Yingzhou City, the Huben Army of the Great New Dynasty is stationed in the camp.

Inside the Chinese army's tent, General Huzi of the Great New Dynasty and the famous flying general Li Jingyu were reviewing the intelligence sent back from the Yunzhou front line and the Huben Army's siege troops.

Today is October 29th of the first year of Jian'an.

Ten days have passed since the Youzhou Tiger Ben Army was ordered to besiege Yunzhou City.

However, the 150,000 Tiger Army was trapped outside Yunzhou City and could not move forward.

Even the moat of Yunzhou City cannot be crossed.

If it weren't for the Longcheng Jingnan Army stationed in Yunzhou City, Deputy Marshal Chang Yuchun had received an order from Jin King Chen Huaian in advance and was not allowed to abandon the city to fight without permission.

Maybe, the 150,000 Huben troops who came to attack the city were all eaten up by Chang Yuchun's command of the Yunzhou defenders.

Several confrontations between the two sides outside Yunzhou City ended in the defeat of the Huben army.

When the news of the failure of the frontline siege troops' attack came back to the ears of the air general Li Jingyu who was stationed at the Yingzhou base camp and commanded the operations, he was so anxious that he became angry.

This has been going on for several days, and I can't even eat or sleep well.

"Report——"

"Reporting to the general, there is an urgent military situation in Tumu Fort!"

Suddenly, a messenger's announcement came from outside the big tent.

Soon, a tired and tired soldier from the Huben Army came to the tent and knelt down to Li Jingyu with the support of the soldiers outside the tent:

"General, the 200,000 Japanese soldiers led by the emperor were defeated at Tumu Fort. The emperor was covered in dust, and the army dispersed like birds and beasts!"

"What?"

After hearing this, Li Jingyu, who was sitting in the middle of the tent, stood up immediately.

Not caring about the majesty of the general, he rushed to the messenger's side in three steps and two steps, grabbed his collar with one hand and picked him up.

He asked fiercely: "Say it again!"

The messenger looked aggrieved, but still cried and replied: "General, general, general, I have seen it with my own eyes!"

"The entire Tumu Fortress was dozens of miles away, and there were corpses of Japanese soldiers prepared by the court, as well as burned grain, grass and baggage everywhere."

"General, the general managed to dig out a man who was still breathing among the dead. It was he who told the general, the emperor, that the emperor was captured alive by the Longcheng rebels in Tumu Fort."

"Life or death, life or death unknown!"

Teng!

Li Jingyu pushed the ordering soldier down, and his whole body seemed to have been drained of energy in an instant. His eyes were distracted and his energy was listless.

The emperor who rewarded him with a yellow axe, bow and arrows has been captured. How can we fight this battle?

Next, Chen Huaian, a treacherous minister and traitor, only needed to escort the emperor to the gates of major cities and call the gates, and he would be able to sweep through the major cities of the New Dynasty without even using a single soldier.

I thought that I had met a wise king who could inherit his father's legacy, contribute to the great new Zhao dynasty, and be granted the title of marquis and prime minister.

Who would have thought that Zhao Qian turned out to be a strong-willed but useless guy who might become the first emperor in history.

This battle cannot be fought!

However, things that make Li Jingyu even more desperate are yet to come.

As soon as he sent away the messenger who had returned from the Tumu Fort, he received an urgent military message from the rear.

"Report——"

"Reporting to the general, urgent military situation!"

The next moment, Li Jingyu's deputy general Feng Zhongliang hurriedly broke into the Chinese army's tent.

Feng Zhongliang looked panicked and said in a hurried tone: "General, something bad has happened. Our army, our army's food route was attacked by the Longcheng rebels!"

"The cavalry of the Longcheng rebels circled from Mobei to Wuzhou, and then defeated the imperial forest army and Japanese soldiers led by the emperor in the Tumubao area. They pursued them along the marching route of the army and attacked our army's food road! "

"At this moment, the cavalry vanguard of the Longcheng rebels is less than 200 miles away from Yingzhou City. In the blink of an eye, the cavalry vanguard can point directly at the back of our army!"

"General, this battle is unwinnable!"

Ding!

In the Chinese army's tent, Li Jingyu, who was originally standing, felt his heart pounding after hearing the news from Lieutenant General Feng Zhongliang that the army's food channel was attacked, and then he slumped down on his chair.

The news of the emperor's capture meant to Li Jingyu that it was better to fight or to leave, and there was still room for maneuver.

However, the news that the army's food road was attacked was like a bolt from the blue to him and the 200,000 Tigers and Guards troops under his command, and they had to make a decision without delay.

It was already early winter, and the 200,000 Huben troops who had lost their food, grass, and supplies did not even need the Longcheng rebels to take action. A heavy snowfall at any time would be enough to kill Li Jingyu and the Huben troops.

At this moment, Li Jingyu no longer hesitated.

He immediately ordered: "Vice General Feng, please pass on the order. The Huben army besieging Yunzhou will immediately withdraw in an orderly manner and withdraw to Huanzhou without any mistakes!"

"The general will get the order!"
