What?
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all civil and military officials in the court changed drastically.
"Master He, Dayue Kingdom is asking for help. Hasn't Hexi already sent troops to support it? How could it be..."
"My lords, this invasion is not just Loulan Kingdom, but also the Huns. The army supported by Hexi was attacked by the Huns army halfway. In addition, the Huns cavalry are still rioting on the border, burning, killing and looting. The situation is very Oops."
He Donglin replied.
"Damn it, you Hun dog thief deserves to be killed!"
"There is also Loulan, who has repeatedly thought about invading Hexi. We must give them some warning."
"..."
All the ministers were filled with indignation.
Zhu Tianzheng's face was also a little livid, and he asked: "How is the situation in Hexi now?"
He Donglin said: "Your Majesty, although Hexi is heavily guarded, the number of Xiongnu cavalry invading this time is beyond abnormal. The Xiongnu and Loulan have probably reached an agreement to jointly invade our border."
"Coupled with the mobility of the Huns' cavalry, Hexi is extremely passive and has already submitted a petition to the imperial court for support."
The cavalry is too mobile, they burn, kill, loot and then run away after the battle.
Before your army arrived, they had already disappeared.
Moreover, once the number of cavalry reaches a certain level, their charge is unimaginable. This is one of the reasons why the grasslands have been a serious problem in the Central Plains since ancient times.
There are heavy troops in Hexi, but they have no advantage at all against the cavalry, even if they are large in number, it is useless.
"Your Majesty, the Dayue Kingdom is the key to the Hexi Corridor and the gateway for me to leave the court. It must not fall into the hands of the Loulan Kingdom and the Huns."
"Yes! We must fight them out and send more troops."
"..."
The ministers all shouted.
It may be because the situation in Lichao has changed greatly in the past year, and there are many people in the court who are taking charge of the battle.
Of course, because of the Hexi Corridor, Li Chao and Xiongnu Loulan had already been feuding for a long time, and there was no possibility of making peace.
Zhu Tianzheng pondered for a moment and said: "The Loulan Kingdom and the Xiongnu are determined to destroy me and leave the country. They cannot be forgiven. The Ministry of War immediately started to prepare additional troops for support."
"yes!"
He Donglin accepted the order and then asked: "Your Majesty, I don't know who to send to lead the troops?"
Upon hearing this, the originally noisy court suddenly became silent.
The Hun cavalry is no fun. Hexi is heavily guarded, and there is nothing you can do to face them. No one dares to say that they are sure.
Infantry is at a huge disadvantage to cavalry.
Although there were cavalry in Lichao and Hexi, their quality was not comparable to that of the Huns' cavalry.
Qin Zhengqing said at this time: "The Huns' cavalry is too maneuverable. The only thing that can compete with it is General Wu's Red Eagle Cavalry. Can General Wu be diverted to Hexi?"
"How can that be done? General Wu has just rushed to the border of the Jin Kingdom, and most of the Jin Kingdom's grasslands have been mobilized. It is very likely that the Jin Kingdom and the Xiongnu have reached a tacit understanding."
"You can ask the Wu Dynasty to contain the Jin Kingdom, so that General Wu can take action."
"It is a way, but it will only happen if His Highness the Fourth Prince and Princess Tianwu come forward to lobby."
"..."
The place above the court looked like a vegetable market, and there was a lot of discussion.
Zhu Tianzheng was also a little unsure.
Guo Wankai said: "Lobbying takes time. It comes and goes. I'm afraid Hexi can't wait. And there is no doubt whether the Wu Dynasty will take action. Even if it does, we can't place all our hopes on the Wu Dynasty."
Zhu Tianzheng nodded and asked, "Does Prime Minister Guo have any idea?"
Guo Wankai said: "Back to Your Majesty, when you mentioned the Fourth Highness just now, you seem to have overlooked one thing. The Fourth Highness is not only excellent at martial arts, but also defeated Duan Zhenglong in the southwest. I was thinking , His Highness the Fourth Prince may have a way to deal with the Hun cavalry."
"That's right! Dali's tiger and wolf troops are like chickens and dogs in the hands of His Highness, and the Huns' cavalry is definitely not worth mentioning."
"General Zhao once said that His Royal Highness is a peerless general and will definitely be able to defeat the Huns' cavalry."
"..."
I don’t know if it was genuine admiration or intentional, but the ministers were excited anyway.
If a great talent sees this scene, he will definitely give these people a hard fight.
mmp!
If you are going to die on your own, have you dug up your family's ancestral graves?
Yan Zhenlin's eyes also twitched and said: "Although His Highness the Fourth Highness has outstanding abilities, the Ministry of Commerce has just been established and Ezhou has just begun. I'm afraid..."
Guo Wankai said: "Both the Ministry of Commerce and Ezhou can postpone it. The border emergency is the top priority. Moreover, the Ministry of Commerce is on the right track and Ezhou has fully resumed work."
"That's right! His Highness the Fourth Highness cares about the people. I still remember His Highness's sword of protection, the sword of the country, and the sword of all people. If he learns about the military situation in Hexi, His Highness's butcher knife will be impatient."
"Well said! Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, loves the people like his own son, which is the blessing for me to leave the court."
"..."
A group of ministers praised the great talent to the sky.
Um! If you really praise God, this is not like sending a great talent to the West.
The sword of protection, the sword of the country, and the sword of all peoples, the great talent said that he was just pretending to be cool, now it's fine, pretending to be bad!
Comrade Lao Yan didn't know what to say when faced with such a situation.
Zhu Tianzheng also hesitated for a moment, paused and said, "I'll wait until I ask the fourth child about this matter."
"The Ministry of War can prepare relevant matters first. That's it for today!"
…
The talented man didn't know what happened in the court. At this moment, he took Gu Ling'er and Zhuiyue to a deserted wilderness.
Gu Ling'er asked in confusion: "Husband, what are we doing here?"
Zhuiyue was also a little curious, but my uncle was always right. Whatever he said was what he said, so there seemed to be no need to ask.
Lin Bai smiled and said: "Let's do an experiment and see if it can succeed this time."
"You all stay away."
The so-called experiment was of course gunpowder. During this period, Lin Bai had tried it many times and slowly found some clues. He thought it was almost done, so he deliberately found a secluded place.
Place the prepared explosives, light the fuse, and run away.
It feels a bit like setting off firecrackers to fry cow dung when I was a kid.
Gu Ling'er and Zhuiyue were still confused, wondering what their husband was up to.
next moment!
There was a loud rumbling sound, and rubble flew away.
The two girls were immediately frightened and turned pale. The long sword in Zhuiyue's hand had also been unsheathed, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Lin Bai was already smiling.
The two women finally came to their senses and looked at Lin Bai. Gu Ling'er asked, "Husband, did you do this?"
The two women were obviously frightened, the power was really amazing.
Lin Bai smiled and said: "How about it? This is explosives. If it is on the battlefield..."
When the two women heard Lin Bai's explanation, their expressions suddenly changed.
Gu Ling'er went even further. She looked at Lin Bai and said, "Husband, I am the princess of the Wu Dynasty."
ah?
Lin Bai didn't react for a while, but it took him a while to finally understand, "Princess of the Wu Dynasty, my husband only knows that you are my wife."
Gu Ling'er was very moved because her husband was not wary of her at all, and immediately nodded vigorously, "Yeah! Husband, it's great to have you!"
The talented man took her into his arms and said with a wicked smile: "Really! My husband is very happy now, let's celebrate?"
Gu Ling'er said: "How to celebrate?"
The talented man blinked.
Gu Ling'er suddenly blushed, "This... this wilderness..."
"It's better to be in the wilderness, no one can see it, Chai Yue, you think so!"
"Husband...husband, the three of us?"
"Today is my husband's big day, you won't let him down, right?"
"me……"
…
