Something happened at Guyuguan! ! ?
This news was like a bolt from the blue, instantly hitting the ministers on the forehead.
Although the princes in the Hall of Taihe only knew how to make peace with each other in the past, this does not mean that they do not know the importance of Guyuguan Pass!
On the contrary, how many officials who have reached their position are fools? After just thinking for a while, they realized the seriousness of the problem.
Finally, the Minister of Binbu stood up first.
"Your Majesty, may I ask if the news about Guyuguan is still true? According to the information obtained by the Ministry of War, Guyuguan is still in the hands of General Yang Yan. You see..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a rush of running sounds outside the door.
"Your Majesty, something serious has happened!"
"General Yang Yan is rushing eight hundred miles away, saying something happened at Guyuguan Pass!"
"Today Guyuguan has fallen into the hands of Hou Jin. General Yang Yan sent an urgent report, requesting to lead an army to defend the capital!"
As soon as this statement came out, the officials in the Taihe Palace couldn't help but burst into an uproar.
If Yang Dong plagiarized just now, most of the officials in the palace were just watching a show.
So if something happens at Guyuguan, it means that no one can stay out of it.
"How can this be!?"
The Minister of War's complexion turned pale, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
As the Minister of War, he naturally understands what the fall of Guyyu Pass means! ?
Especially Guyuguan, which fell into the hands of Hou Jin!
"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, please make plans in advance."
The Minister of Hube stood up and went out of the queue, and immediately knelt in front of the empress.
"Once Youzhou is defeated, the capital will be unprotected. Your Majesty, please consider moving south as soon as possible!"
As soon as these words came out, many ministers' eyes flashed with brilliance. Yes, as long as His Majesty agrees to move south, the threat from Youzhou is nothing to fear.
So what if Hou Jin's cavalry were strong? As long as you run fast enough, you don't have to be afraid of them.
What's more, as we all know, Hou Jin's national power is limited, and even if they conquer a large area of land in one go, they may not be able to hold it.
In the end, it was like plundering a valley, and after a wave of plundering, they had to retreat to the grassland.
Thinking of this, many ministers present expressed their agreement.
"Your Majesty, I think this plan is reasonable. Houjin are nomads, so what if they send their troops south? They just plunder and then return to the grassland."
"Yes, Your Majesty, if you want to keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood, you might as well move to the south to avoid the limelight. After the Golden Iron Cavalry retreats, we can return to the capital."
On the dragon chair, the empress listened to the discussions among the officials in the hall, and a coldness appeared on her majestic face.
Even if she is not an emperor, she still understands what the consequences will be if a foreign enemy invades?
History has proven countless times that no city that is captured by an enemy country will end well!
Especially these barbaric prairie people, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil.
Of course he could wave his hand and move south to take refuge. But what about the people in the capital?
The empress frowned slightly, and was about to refuse, when she saw Lin Chunqiu, who was standing at the head of the officials, suddenly walked out of the queue.
"Your Majesty, I think that moving south is not a good idea!"
"Your Majesty and we can naturally leave. But have you ever thought about how the people in the capital should deal with themselves?"
"Your Majesty is the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, so naturally he cannot put himself in danger. How about letting the old minister take your place and guard the capital?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions on the faces of the ministers were extremely wonderful. Even the other officials in Lin Chunqiu's party were still confused at this moment.
They didn't think clearly about what the chief minister wanted to do?
If you stay in the capital, what's the difference between that and committing suicide?
Yang Dong stood in the corner, listening to the ministers' opinions about Guyuguan.
Sure enough, everything was as Yourong had expected. This group of people who were greedy for life and afraid of death had already become panic-stricken.
But what he didn't expect was that Lin Chunqiu, an old dog, would actually choose to stay in the capital.
If he said that he had no other purpose, Yang Dong would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.
But... what exactly does Lin Chunqiu want to do?
Yang Dong's doubts also appeared in the empress's mind.
On the dragon chair, the empress pondered for a moment, then just waved her hand lightly.
"This matter will be discussed later, but I do think that moving south is a way to protect ourselves."
"My dear friends, I intend to set up a palace in Luozhou. I wonder if you have any plans to move to Luozhou first?"
As soon as these words came out, many courtiers showed a hint of emotion on their cheeks.
They come to serve as officials to make money, not to die.
As for Da Zhou, they have no loyalty at all. I heard that the empress agreed to move south and planned to set up a palace.
Even though there were several officials, they said:
"Your Majesty, we are willing to move to Luozhou first and handle the palace affairs for Your Majesty."
"Yes, Your Majesty, we are willing to take the first step and share your worries for Your Majesty."
The empress had no expression on her face and glanced at the ministers. Suddenly he smiled, which was like a spring breeze.
"It is my blessing and the great Zhou's blessing to have loyal and courageous ministers like you."
"The palace in Luozhou will be left to all your dear friends."
Several officials looked at each other and saw a bit of surprise in each other's eyes.
They immediately accepted the order to express their gratitude, but what they were thinking about was how to transfer their family property to Luozhou in the shortest possible time.
The empress slowly raised her head, and her majestic eyes swept over the ministers again.
"But who else wants to go to Luozhou to handle the palace affairs?"
Only this time, no minister spoke again.
Most of the ministers remained quite calm at this moment. They couldn't figure out the empress's plan, so they were prepared to remain unchanged in response to any changes.
What more people are thinking about at this moment is to check the truth about Hou Jin.
After all, if Guyuguan is lost, Hou Jin may not necessarily send his troops south. As the saying goes, the centipede insect is dead but not stiff. Today, Da Zhou still has the power to fight against it.
It remains to be seen whether Houjin will launch a full-scale offensive.
Seeing no one responded, the empress couldn't help but feel secretly disappointed.
A bunch of old foxes, they don’t let go of hawks when they see rabbits, right?
Do you really think I have nothing to do with you now?
I'm afraid it won't be long before there will be military news from Pingzhou again.
Yang Yan, my general.
Come to think of it, you can't stand being lonely at this moment, right?
…
Pingzhou, General's Mansion,
Yang Yan looked at the map on the table with a slight sneer on his cheeks.
"Mr. Zhang, after this cooperation, Hou Jin and Da Zhou will definitely be severely damaged."
"But please don't forget, Mr. Zhang, your promise to me!"
Some people died, but not completely...
