[Chapter 387 Shocking News (1)]

“It’s not good!”

“The big thing is bad!”

“The Yan army is about to arrive in the capital.”

“The Yan general who led the troops is called Yan Tuo, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was injured in his hands. He is now leading the elite Yan soldiers here. We have attacked the capital. What should we do now? Should we pack up and run?” ”

Fuck

! If your head falls, you will have a big scar. I won’t go anywhere.”

Don’t stutter when you talk!”

Nothing is more terrifying than the news that the Yan army is coming to the capital!

Two days ago, this news came out of nowhere and spread to the streets like a plague.

People in the capital were panicking, and they gathered together to discuss in a low voice when they met.

The more you talk, the more frightened, the more you talk about it.

For so many years, the wars outside have not been peaceful.

But this city has never been subjected to war, and it is safe and sound under the protection of the Li family.

The people are used to the emperor leading his troops to win battles, and occasionally even a defeat will not hurt the capital.

Now, the Yan army has come straight to the capital!

No matter how tall or thick the city wall is, it can’t stop the floating of people’s hearts!

Even the military officials of the court and Chinese were apprehensive.

All the generals who were able to fight well with the emperor went on expedition, and those who remained were mostly old or injured generals.

The capital was less than 50,000 troops, and the only one who could really lead troops to defend the city was General Liang, who commanded the imperial guards.

A group of civil officials gathered in the Wenhua Hall and invited General Liang to discuss countermeasures.

The fifth prince Li Chang and Wu’s concubine also came.

When the ministers discussed matters, the young Li Chang couldn’t get in at all.

Wu’s concubine was also a civil servant and did not understand military affairs, so he only listened with his ears raised.

Old Qiao Ge frowned and said in a condensed voice: “The Yan army marches all the way, and within two days, they will be under the city. Now the important task of guarding the capital will be entrusted to General Liang.”

General Liang did not speak much, but concisely. Powerful: “At the end of the day, I will do my best.”

The noble book of households said in a deep voice: “The capital has enough grain, enough for half a year.” The

half-year stock of grain is enough to support the troops stationed in various places to support.

Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of War stroked his beard and said: “The bows and arrows in the Ministry of War are piled up in several warehouses,

enough to support a few battles. However, there are not enough warhorses in the city.”

Most of the warhorses were taken away by Emperor Yongjia.

Now there are less than 10,000 war horses left in the capital.

However, the side defending the city does not need too many war horses.

The official secretary said: “From today onwards, the gates of the city will be closed, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave.”

General Liang nodded: “From the direction of the Yan army, nine out of ten will go straight to Zhengdemen. I will lead the troops myself. Guard at Zhengde Gate.”

There are four gates in the capital, the largest and most lively gate is Zhengyang Gate.

Zhengde Gate is the smallest of the four city gates, facing the direction of Yan State.

Yan Tuo led his troops to attack the capital, and it was the most convenient to attack Zhengdemen.

…

This discussion is about half a day.

General Liang had a heavy responsibility and left in a hurry after the discussion was over.

Li Chang, who was hungry for half a day, took heavy steps to the Jiaofang Hall.

Consort Wu frowned and walked with Li Chang.

Princess Hui’an and Li Chang were distant and indifferent, and rarely communicated with each other on weekdays.

Concubine Wu and Li Chang were not familiar with each other either.

Entering the Jiaofang Hall, but did not see Queen Qiao.

Queen Qiao has been ill since she heard that the prince was injured.

Seeing that things were getting better, the news of the Yan army attacking the capital came to my ears again.

Queen Qiao was frightened and frightened, and her illness became serious again.

Princess Hui’an kept guarding Queen Qiao.

Now the person in charge in the Jiaofang Palace is the Crown Princess Lu Mingyu.

From Lu Mingyu’s face, there was no trace of anxiety.

She was as calm and calm as usual, and stayed in the Jiaofang Hall every day in charge of palace affairs, like a needle that stabilized the sea, stabilizing the hearts of the palace.

“I’ve seen the second sister-in-law.” Li Chang had been cleaned up several times, and he didn’t even dare to let out the air in front of Lu Mingyu, so he honestly bowed his hands.

Concubine Wu also bowed his hands: “I have seen the Crown Princess.”

Lu Mingyu nodded slightly, and asked bluntly, “What are the rules of affairs in the Wenhua Hall today?”

Li Chang is not very smart, but his memory is good. The result of today’s deliberations told Lu Mingyu: “…General Liang shoulders the heavy responsibility for guarding the capital. All city gates are closed and heavily guarded. No matter which city gate is attacked, smoke will be lit as a warning.

” General Liang personally led the troops to

Zhengdemen.” Lu Mingyu nodded slightly.

Concubine Wu added a few words: “There is enough food in the city for half a year, there is no shortage of weapons, and there are fewer war horses. There are probably 10,000

war horses, which are enough to go back and forth.”

Indeed enough.

However, Lu Mingyu frowned: “That’s not right! There are too few warhorses!”

Li Chang couldn’t help but said, “Anyway, if you don’t send troops out of the city, you will have fewer warhorses…”

“There is always a contingency in everything.” Lu Mingyu said coldly. Duan Li Chang: “No one can tell what will happen to the war. It is better to be fully prepared now than to be short of horses.”

Li Chang shut his mouth.

Concubine Wu is quite knowledgeable: “What the Crown Princess said is quite reasonable. It is true that there is a shortage of war horses when it is important, but it is always right to be more prepared. But, where to look for war horses now?”

War horses are also trained. of.

Ordinary horses can’t go into battle at all.

Now that the time is urgent, it is too late to train the horses.

Now that Lu Mingyu thought of this, he naturally thought of a solution: “First recruit the war horses in each mansion, in case of emergency. It’s not the best use, if it comes in handy, when the Yan army is completely defeated, War horses again.”

Great Wei Shangwu has a strong atmosphere.

The wealthier people love to keep horses, not to mention civil and military officials.

Especially in the residence of the generals, it is not unusual to have dozens of war horses in the stable.

It is not a problem to gather a few thousand horses together.

Consort Wu immediately said: “This is a good idea. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com However, at the moment, General Liang is busy arranging troops and has no time to borrow a horse. Leave this to me!”

“Lending a horse” This kind of assignment is both trivial and easy to offend people.

There must be someone with a high enough identity and good temperament to come forward.

Consort Wu is indeed the best choice.

Lu Mingyu was not polite to Consort Wu: “Then there will be consort Wu.”

Li Chang subconsciously opened his mouth: “I’ll go with the concubine too!” After staying in the palace all day, he was really stuffy.

It is better to go out of the palace to “borrow a horse” and relax by the way.

Lu Mingyu glanced at Li Chang: “DPRK is inseparable from people, you are still just as usual, just listen to the government every day.”

Why do you listen to you?

Too domineering!

Li Chang was indignant in his heart, looked up at Lu Mingyu, and before he could say anything, Lu Mingyu glared back coldly.

He replied foolishly: “I listened to the second sister-in-law.”
