"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1035
"Your Majesty, Qilin Guard has an urgent report to submit."
In the middle of the night, the sleeping Emperor Long Jun of the Far Eastern court was awakened by a knock on the door, and heard the voices of the officials outside.
If it is an ordinary emperor, whoever dares to disturb his sleep at night will lose his head.
But now that the Far East Dynasty is in turmoil, Emperor Longjun also wants to make every effort to govern and keep the country left by his ancestors.
Therefore, Lord Long also set a rule, that is, any major and urgent military situation, no matter when it is, must be presented to him as soon as possible.
And in order to worry about being ostracized by powerful officials, Lord Long is also specially gathering power.
Although those trivial matters don't need to be presented to him immediately, he still has to ask about them.
It is precisely because the big and small things are dealt with together, so Long Jun also gives people an impression of diligence, which has been praised by many people.
In order to consolidate his position, he also deliberately strengthened the power of Qilinwei, an intelligence agency.
Now that Qilinwei reported an emergency, Lord Long didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately put on his robe and walked out of his bedroom.
"Where did you get it?"
In the brightly lit hall, after the Dragon Lord sat down, he asked the internal officer who was standing there with his hands tied.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is a report from Mr. Xiang Wenyuan, Jiangbei Province."
The internal officer hastily presented the sealed letter to Long Jun with both hands.
After Long Jun saw that the sealant on the letter was intact, he opened the letter and read it by the candlelight.
After reading the report sent by Qilin Guard of Jiangbei Province, Long Jun's complexion also changed.
"Quickly summon the left and right prime ministers, great scholars, marshals and others to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters." After putting down the letter, Lord Long ordered the internal officials.
Looking at the dark night sky outside, the internal officer hesitated for a few seconds, then responded quickly and quickly backed out.
Soon, the left and right prime ministers Yan Jing, Liu Zhao, the academician Li Yi, and the grand marshal Hu Ziyang were all awakened by urgent summons.
Seeing that the emperor wanted to summon him in the middle of the night, Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing also cursed inwardly.
This is not the first time that the emperor Longjun wants to establish an image of diligence and win the hearts of the people again. He has to deal with everything in the first place, but he has made them miserable.
No matter when and where, as long as the emperor summons them, they will rush there as soon as possible, even in the middle of the night.
Repeated tossing made Yan Jing and the others very tired, but they didn't dare to say anything, they only dared to complain in their hearts.
Although complaining endlessly in their hearts, Yan Jing and the others quickly dressed and rushed to the Hall of Qinzheng.
After three prostrations and nine kowtows, Yan Jing and the others have not yet recovered from their sleepwalking.
"It's an urgent matter to call all your dear friends here late at night."
Seeing the sleepy-eyed power ministers, the emaciated Long Jun handed them the report of the Qilin Guard for circulation.
After reading this Qilinwei's report, everyone lost all sleepiness and looked solemn.
"The bandit chieftain Chen Zi'ang has entered the territory of Luyang Province and is heading towards the Hexi border camp."
"Furthermore, according to Qilin Guard's investigation, this time the bandit chieftain Chen Ziang mobilized more than 30 battalions to go to Luyang Province together."
"The bandit army gathered heavy troops on the border of Hexi Province, and the bandit chief Chen Ziang came in person. The bandit army is not a good person."
Looking at the dignified people, Long Jun also had a sad expression on his face.
The Qinghe Army moved troops to the border area of ??Hexi Province on such a large scale, and without the slightest cover-up, the purpose is self-evident, that is, it is directed at Hexi Province.
Once the Hexi Province falls, then their Gyeonggi Province will face the Qinghe Army.
If there is a crisis in Gyeonggi Province, it will be the overall crisis of the Far Eastern court.
After all, the base camp is in jeopardy, so even if they have achieved some small victories on the front line, it will not change the overall situation.
This move of the Qinghe army will be a devastating blow to the Far Eastern court, so the emperor Long Jun also called everyone urgently.
"The thieves have strong soldiers and strong horses. According to the Qilin Guard's report, they have thousands of ballistas alone, and countless catapults and other weapons. The Hexi province is in danger." Liu Zhao, the right prime minister, said.
?The prime minister couldn't help but gave the right prime minister Liu Zhao a supercilious look. Even a fool could see that the Hexi province was in danger, and the Gyeonggi province was in danger. Now he said that these farts are useless.
"Your Majesty has lived in the deep palace for a long time after ascending the throne, and the people in the remote countryside don't know that there is a new king in the court. It is better to tour the provinces to the west to show the majesty of the royal family."
? Prime Minister Zuo Yan Jing knew in his heart that once the Qinghe Army stormed the Hexi Province with all its strength, the Hexi Province would not be able to defend it.
Instead of waiting for the Qinghe army to retreat in a hurry when the Qinghe army approached the city, it is better to let the emperor Long Jun go to a safe place in the west now.
"When the imperial court is in crisis, your majesty is not allowed to tour the west, not to mention that there are as many bandits along the way as there are dangers. Once your majesty leaves the royal capital, it will definitely shake the hearts of the soldiers and the people on the front line." Liu Zhao, the right prime minister, retorted.
"I also don't think His Majesty should go on a westward tour at this time." Generalissimo Hu Ziyang of the Imperial Guard also expressed his opinion.
"The bandit army is only pressing heavily on the front line of the Hexi province, and it is still far away from the Gyeonggi province. If His Majesty is on a westward tour at this moment, he will definitely mess up and cause panic. The morale of the frontline troops will be shaken, and the bandit army will definitely take advantage of it."
Hu Ziyang continued: "Your Majesty's successor's prestige is not enough, so that small people everywhere rebelled. Why don't Your Majesty take this opportunity to lead the army to fight against the bandits? As long as the bandits are repelled, the world will definitely obey."
"Nonsense, the battlefield is fierce and dangerous, your majesty has a body of gold, how can you put yourself in danger, I think you have ulterior motives!"
Yan Jing, Prime Minister Zuo, is well aware of the situation in the Far Eastern court. He just wants to delay time and enjoy a few more days of good life for himself.
However, Hu Ziyang actually suggested that the emperor should conquest in person. Once the emperor is defeated, the Far Eastern court will collapse, and there will be no eggs under the nest. He, the left prime minister, will also lose his power at that time.
However, if the emperor retreats to the west, even if they lose half of the country, they can still settle down in a corner and continue to enjoy a luxurious life.
"Yan Aiqing don't get angry, Hu Aiqing is also thinking about the overall situation."
Seeing Yan Jing accusing Hu Ziyang, Long Jun was worried that they would quarrel, so he stopped it.
After all, Hu Ziyang holds the imperial guards in his hands, if they have internal strife at this moment, it will lead to serious consequences.
"Thieves are not good at coming. The king's capital needs me to sit in the town. Let's go on the west tour. When the world is settled, I will go west and south to see the great rivers and mountains in the Far East." Long Jun rejected it. The motion of the west tour.
"However, Yan Aiqing is also right. The soldiers on the front line are fierce and dangerous, and I am not good at military affairs. If it is the royal conquest, not only will it not be of much help, but it will add chaos and affect the war."
"Hu Aiqing, the war in Hexi Province is related to the safety of my court, how about you go there yourself?" Long Jun cast his eyes on Hu Ziyang, Marshal of the Imperial Guard.
"Willing to listen to His Majesty's orders!" Hu Ziyang clasped his fists and said.
Long Jun nodded: "Okay, then we will send all the best soldiers from all over the world to Hexi Province to kill the arrogance of the bandit army."
"Yan Aiqing, before the soldiers and horses move the food and grass, you will have to work on the food and supplies." Long Jun turned his attention to Yan Jing, Prime Minister Zuo.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best." (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
