The hall suddenly became quiet. The aristocratic family is not without talents, but basically all the elites belonging to the aristocratic family and those who serve in the army are serving under Liang Guogong Qin Zhan. If you want them to support elsewhere, even if they are willing, the King of Zhou will not be happy. .
Upon seeing this, Marquis Yongchang said directly: "Your Majesty, the Duke of Song is stationed in the northern border, and there are more than 70,000 people from the Northern Army to guard it. The Lie Sun Army will send another general to lead the army and join forces with Duke Song.
As for the Southern Territory, Wei Chen is willing to personally lead the Yunyi Legion to rush for reinforcements. He will first join Cheng Guogong and then make adjustments based on the actual situation in the Southern Territory, either to resist Qi or directly lead the army to suppress the rebels in the Southern Territory. "
King Zhou said: "According to what the Marquis of Yongchang said, you personally led the Yunyi Army to the southern region. The Northern Lie Sun Army was personally commanded by King Kang. The Ministry of War drafted a battle plan. In addition, more than 30,000 new soldiers were recruited and trained in Kyoto. Everything is ready.
The Duke of Liang and the Marquis of Weiyuan were ordered to pay close attention to the movements in the territory, defend the army and prepare for war. The Ministry of Household Affairs should do a good job in allocating military supplies and food. After the war, the soldiers should be resettled and their pensions should be appropriate. "
The king of Zhou issued orders and arrangements one after another.
The five countries on the mainland stand side by side. Although the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty is good, it will not be easy to face the alliance between Qi and Wei at the same time. Especially the signal they are now sending together makes the Great Zhou Dynasty feel on pins and needles.
The second plan for the Great Zhou Dynasty started again. This time the news was spread by unknown people, causing a lot of heated discussions among the people.
Qi and Wei joined forces to attack the territory of the Zhou Dynasty, and the Liang Kingdom formed an alliance, which caused everyone to be in an uproar.
The war situation was urgent. After the court made a decision, the army began to set off on the third day.
Marquis Yongchang and King Kang personally led the army to rush for reinforcements, and the recruitment of new troops was also in full swing.
Dazhou entered a wartime state.
But everyone knew that this battle would not last long, because it was already winter and the weather could not support them for a long time.
But the imperial court's many countermeasures also gave the people of Zhou a little peace of mind.
It wasn't until half a month later that a piece of news came and the rumors started again.
Another incident occurred in the Southern Territory, Duke Cheng was defeated, and the offensive and defensive momentum of the Southern Territory battlefield changed again.
Even though the situation was extremely bad before, nearly 100,000 troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty were deployed in the Southern Region. Now that Cheng Guogong is defeated again, it means that two of the Great Zhou Dynasty Dukes have been lost in the Southern Region.
Is the water in the southern region so deep? Is Qi's 100,000-strong army so invincible?
It's just that the court did not announce the specific situation of this defeat. There were a lot of discussions among the people, but they didn't know how to evaluate it.
Supervising Tiansi, Zhang Yuhang knew that his opportunity had come as soon as he heard the news.
That night, he went directly to the palace and asked to see His Majesty.
In the imperial study room, King Zhou, who was already a little haggard, heard that Zhang Yuhang was outside asking for a meeting, so he still summoned him in.
Looking at Zhang Yuhang standing not far away from him, King Zhou rubbed his forehead and asked, "What's the matter with you asking to see me all night?"
Upon seeing this, Zhang Yuhang knelt down on one knee and said to King Zhou: "Your Majesty, I want to rebel."
Speechless.
There were only two of them in the Imperial Study Room at the moment, but as Zhang Yuhang said these words, it instantly became extremely silent, and you could hear a pin drop.
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
"I know very well."
After that, Zhang Yuhang handed over the memorial he had prepared long ago and placed it on King Zhou's desk.
King Zhou did not open it immediately, but took a deep look at Zhang Yuhang's expression before opening the memorial and reading it patiently.
The memorial was very long, and Zhang Yuhang wrote thousands of words eloquently.
King Zhou also looked at it very slowly and considered it carefully.
Zhang Yuhang knelt on the ground quietly without saying a word.
Half an hour later, King Zhou closed the memorial and took a deep breath.
"Since when did you start planning? If you do this, even I may not be able to protect your future."
"When the changes in the Southern Territory just started, when I discovered that there were so many refugees in the Southern Territory, I started planning."
Zhang Yuhang said solemnly: "I am a person who has experienced incomparable darkness and despair. People who have experienced things like me will either be completely trapped after knowing everything, indulge in extravagance and lust, and do all kinds of evil in order to take revenge on the Hou Mansion and all the people who have ever lived." People who bring me harm.
I did the same thing before. I treated Xingyong Hou Mansion and those who had betrayed and hurt me with cruel and cruel methods. Your Majesty should know this. "
Zhang Yuhang said all the words in his heart, because facing King Zhou at this moment, if he could not gain his absolute trust, all his plans would be empty talk.
"I know this, but I am also very curious. You were just an ordinary bastard before. What made you undergo such a huge change in a short period of time? Hatred can be accumulated, but your own abilities can also change because of your own abilities. Is hatred infinitely magnified?
Everything you have done during this period has made me see your value. The memorial you wrote today hits the mark every time. Regarding the matter in the Southern Territory, even if the army succeeds in suppressing the rebellion, it is just for the sake of the family. Wedding dress.
If you find another way and carry out this series of actions in the Southern Territory in the name of the imperial court, I know very well what kind of waves it will cause. You should know better. You are rooted in the peerless family.
At that time, the only remaining aristocratic family power in the Southern Region, the aristocratic family ministers in the court, countless memorials, impeachments, and even the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, wherever the aristocratic family power can influence, will treat you as a beast in troubled waters and must kill you first. And then quickly.
At that time, the situation you have tried your best to maintain may collapse, and everything you have done will be refuted by them as worthless. Even under the guidance of thoughtful people, the people will hate you, blame you, and think you are the most useless person in the world. A traitorous minister will be despised by everyone and will be infamy for thousands of years.
What exactly are you doing with these things? Is it worth risking your own life just for the unified world you once said, for your fantasy that is almost impossible to become a reality? "
Is it worth it?
Zhang Yuhang has asked himself this question countless times.
If he stops now, with the cards he has in hand, not only will things go smoothly, but at least he will be safe in this life.
I have offended a lot from the Aristocratic Family, but in front of the Aristocratic Family, I only have interests and don't care about hatred.
Not to mention that if you take out things like papermaking and printing that can change the situation, even if you just take out the iron smelting technology or the method of making pure salt, you can at least exchange for a piece of wealth.
Be safe and secure, and have a lifetime of wealth.
On the King of Zhou's side, he could offer the Three Treasures of the Cavalry, and then offer a favor order to the aristocratic families. The aristocratic families, which were originally dominated by clans, would be defeated without any attack.
Under the absolute conspiracy, decline is only a matter of time.
But can I really be carefree because of this?
Will the family give up? Will King Zhou allow himself to enjoy a peaceful and prosperous life?
Not necessarily!
