Ning Fan said softly while walking on the steps: "Money and food are not difficult to solve. The top priority is to resume production as soon as possible and let the people who can return return as soon as possible!"
"Now Duke Jingguo has led his army to the south. In less than three days, the overall situation in the north will be determined. The center of the imperial court must complete the entire group within three days. Is there any problem?"
Ning Fan looked back, Shen Li shook his head, Lin Qiushi showed a hint of hesitation on his face, and with a crisp sound, he nodded quickly: "Your Highness, no problem!"
"Um!"
"I, the Great Yu, are now riddled with holes. I will take this opportunity to break and then stand. There will be many big moves in the court next. I hope all of you will give me your full help!"
"do you understand?"
"promise!"
Back at the palace, Ning Fan also felt tired. He didn't feel it much before. After all, Guo Jia, Chen Gong and others were blocking him. But now, facing the civil and military forces of the court, except for Zhuge Liang, there was no one in the court. Able to stand alone.
"came back?"
"Um!"
Ning Fan saw Cai Yan wearing a pale white dress and walked towards him with a smile. However, he accidentally caught a glimpse of two beautiful figures not far away and smiled dryly: "Are you still used to living in the house?"
"The servants are very considerate."
"That's good!"
Ning Fan breathed a sigh of relief. Emperor Yu brought Cai Yan back from Huainan and placed him in Prince Yong's Mansion. After all, before he came back, the manor was particularly deserted.
"Lord!"
Just as he was about to chat with Cai Yan about romance, Jia Xu's figure came to him: "There is news from the White Robe Army!"
"Um?"
Ning Fan looked startled and asked, "Did Qingzhi destroy Su Gaiwen's main force?"
Jia Xu shook his head, with a somewhat solemn look on his face: "Something happened. This is the battle report from General Chen!"
"oh?"
Ning Fan opened the secret letter sent by Chen Qingzhi and looked at it, his expression gradually became serious: "It's interesting, this is a ghost!"
"Sixty to seventy thousand Mobei Iron Cavalry were quietly wiped out in Xun'an!"
"Tsk!"
"It seems that you really underestimated our sixth emperor brother!"
"My lord, you mean that this is what King Xun'an did?"
Ning Fan shook his head and said with a smile: "In his territory, even if he didn't do it, it still has nothing to do with him!"
"But, no matter what, the hidden danger on Su Gaiwen's side has been solved."
"Have all the kings returned to the capital?"
Jia Xu nodded slightly: "There are news from all sides, and they are all on their way back to Beijing."
"Um!"
Ning Fan nodded, looked at Jia Xu, and solemnly told: "We must send someone to protect their safety. If something happens to them at this time, they won't be able to clean the shit basin."
"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates are ready!"
"Um!"
"Gather my team from Prince Yong's Mansion to go to the main hall to discuss matters!"
…
Big Li.
Xueyue City.
royal palace.
Empress Li was sitting in the imperial garden, surrounded by soldiers. There was a thick stack of official documents on the table, her expression slightly gloomy.
"Your Majesty, Da Yan's 700,000-strong army is pressing down on the territory this time, and it is bound to destroy our country, Zuo!"
"Marshal Xi has mobilized all the soldiers and horses in the southern border, which is only more than 500,000. The new army has not yet formed combat strength. Da Yan's army is still converging on our northern border. What should we do?"
Mu Qingcheng looked at the official documents one after another, and after reviewing them quickly, he said calmly: "The national power of Dayan was already several times better than that of our Dali, but now it has almost used the foundation of the country. Now, Dayu is in a deadlock again, and our country is Li can only save himself."
"First move the people slowly to the southern counties."
"Intensify the training of the new army and transfer all the Yuannu retinue to the northern border. I have only one request. Within a month, we must firmly defend the northern border defense line!"
When Gong Yuyan heard this, a look of concentration appeared on her face, and then she asked, "What about in one month?"
"I have my own plan to deal with it!"
"yes!"
"Is there any news coming from Dayu's territory?"
"Mobei's cavalry suffered repeated setbacks against Dayu and lost troops and generals. Now Dayu is launching a counterattack!"
"good!"
…
Time flies by for three days. In just three days, great changes have taken place in the Central Plains.
The national army of Dayu Town moved south, and Ji Sui and others directed all their efforts to surround Tie Xuanzhen's main force. Yue Fei led his army in a surprise attack, forcing Tie Xuanzhen to the east in one fell swoop, and then regained the northern defense line.
Dayan Kingdom launched an all-out offensive against Dali, and in just three days, they conquered more than ten cities.
In the territory of Dayu, the imperial court recruited 300,000 men and started construction without hesitation, expanding the capital, repairing river embankments, building high-quality bluestone roads, providing work relief, and resettling hundreds of thousands of victims.
There were also undercurrents surging within the imperial court. First, the news of the appointment of a queen spread throughout the world, and then the central government was reorganized into three provinces with six ministries under its jurisdiction.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Outside King Yu's city.
Ning Fan personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to welcome Duke Jingguo back to Beijing.
People gathered outside the city, looking at the convoy coming slowly from the distance, with a bit of sadness in their expressions.
"What happened? Why is there such a big battle in the court?"
"I heard that Duke Jingguo's only son, Li Yan, died in battle!"
"Hey, what a pity. The Duke of Zhenguo is full of loyal people, but I didn't expect that he couldn't even save his bloodline!"
The people were talking a lot, and Ning Fan and all the officials also looked downcast. As Duke Jing's motorcade arrived at the city gate, Ning Fan personally stepped forward to greet them.
"Your Majesty, Li Jin, see His Highness King Yong!"
"Your Majesty, please rise!"
Ning Fan stepped forward to help him, looking at Li Jin's old face, he sighed in his heart.
Talking about Li Jin, Ning Fan also had a lot of admiration in his heart. Both civil and military officials in the court had their own positions, even Ji Sui and others had selfish motives.
But Li Jin went to the battlefield with his father when he was a boy, fighting in the north and south. After becoming famous, he single-handedly defended the northern border for decades.
He was so famous that he was known as the Army God of Dayu!
Now in his twilight years, he has not yet enjoyed the happiness of a family, but the white-haired man is giving away the black-haired man!
"Wei Ying, declare the decree!"
The eunuch of Wei also looked particularly solemn today, holding a golden imperial edict, standing in front of the officials, and said loudly: "Li Shiying'er, the young general Li Yan of the Zhenguo Army, a young hero, brave and brave, loyal and righteous, sacrificing his life to serve the country... …”
"Today, I will posthumously designate him as a Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness, and bury him in the Martyrs Cemetery with royal rites!"
"Li Jin, Duke of Jingguo, defended the country and guarded the border, and made many military exploits. The Li family is full of loyal and loyal people. Today, he is bestowed with a golden plaque. The 'Family of Loyal and Brave' conferred Li Jin the title of Taiwei, and granted him thousands of hectares of fertile land. I appreciate this!"
"My lord, thank you, my emperor, for long live the emperor!"
