Seven days later, Bianjing!
"Good news! Lubu is flying! The third team borrowed Li Ning's job and went to five cities in a row to open up Karia for the Emperor Song Dynasty!"
The so-called "lubu" is a flag made of gold and silk with text written on it, which is used to spread news to all directions.
As for "Feijie", it is much easier to understand. It's nothing more than good news delivered as fast as flying.
This kind of good news is naturally very important, so we rush to let the government and the public, and even the common people in Guizhou know it as soon as possible.
However, since the emperor missed the scholar a few years ago and issued 13 consecutive decrees in regret, this "Lubu Feijie" has changed its flavor. At least in most of the miles passed, it came from the Northern Dynasties and Liao Dynasty. China's Haidongqing has undertaken the most important task.
Haidongqing is a kind of artificially domesticated eagle. It is small in size, but it does not lose the speed of a raptor.
The Emperor and Song Dynasty had long known that this kind of domesticated bird was the favorite of the nobles of the Liao Kingdom, and there were even some bad guys in the country who followed the example of the Northern Dynasties and domesticated it.
At first, everyone just regarded it as a matter of fun, but with the issuance of the Thirteen Government Orders, military aircraft communications were taken seriously, and this kind of bird that could soar quickly in the sky became the new favorite of the Privy Council bosses.
As a result, all kinds of falconers were urgently recruited by the Privy Council. After spending several years, a communication network that could cover most areas of the Imperial Song Dynasty was finally built.
This communication network was used to deliver this good news. But in order to let the people of Bianjing immerse themselves in the sea of joy, the civil servants of the Privy Council pretended to order the soldiers to go out and sneak around twice.
As for the effect received, it is naturally very good.
I heard that the Banzhi guards in the palace last year were also chattering about the victory they had just won.
Earlier, Emperor Zhao Zhen was leisurely holding a small pot of rice wine and lamenting the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan and Fujian's great victory.
However, a group of men stinking of sweat disturbed his unique elegance.
What kind of man can there be in the palace, either the emperor or the guard on duty to protect the emperor.
The discoverer was actually the emperor, so naturally it was the latter who was discovered.
However, the emperor has always been a very empathetic person, and he does not think it is wise to disturb his personal guards at this time.
Because for the people below, some words are not convenient to say in front of him.
So he just stood a little further away, quietly listening to the arguments of these rough guys.
Di Qing, who rides a straight horse, is handsome and has always been talked about by the ladies in court.
But this time, this dear friend changed his honest style.
"Look, this is Quanzhou. This is the Luoyang River. A curtain of light suddenly appeared on the river, connecting Quanzhou with this place."
He changed a map and continued to explain with some uncertainty: "I heard that this place was in the far west 1,300 years ago. Of course, this year is not important to us. Because as long as you pass through the light curtain, it is still an open land. , when a war breaks out, is it no different than at home?"
As he spoke, he tapped the map.
"Look, this is the place. This is the place you go out of the light curtain. It's not a big place, but I heard it's quite rich. It's called the Hellespont. To the south is a slightly desolate inland called Phrygia. These two All areas are our territory.”
"Then, which piece is Karia?"
"Here!" He tapped the center of the left end of the map, then glanced at the Hellespont on the upper right, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's really far away."
This remark aroused a lot of resonance, and some people even looked up the chapter and excerpted a sentence: "The country of Yue is despised and far away, and you know how difficult it is."
A group of big bosses raised their heads and looked at this arrogant comrade. Some of them couldn't help but kicked him a few times, and then said: "It took five cities in a row to capture this with great difficulty. Now that the news has spread, I don’t know how much of a sensation it will cause.”
"That's right, the country's military affairs are exhausted. Since Taizong's tragic defeat at Gaolianghe, there hasn't been such a proud victory for many years."
Zhao Zhen didn't expect that these bold guys actually mentioned his grandfather's past that he couldn't bear to look back on. Because he had a broad mind, he had to cough twice to declare his existence as an emperor.
The Banzhi guards who heard the sound immediately turned around and followed the sound. When the face of Emperor Zhao Zhen appeared to them at night, everyone was frightened and panicked, and they all knelt down to the ground to plead guilty.
In fact, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty had very little political status. If the words just said were made by a civil servant, I am afraid they would not be punished with lese majeste like in the Qing Dynasty.
But if you are a warrior, the issue of loyalty will always be placed first.
so. Talking nonsense on issues involving Emperor Zhao Zhen's ancestors is very likely to arouse the emperor's serious resentment or even retaliation. Even if this is a rare benevolent emperor in history, I am afraid there are rare exceptions.
Sure enough, Emperor Zhao Zhen was seen sitting firmly on the back of one of the Ban Zhi guards... with a young and unhandsome face.
If the emperor wants to be willful, what can the guards say? Besides, they were wrong first.
Therefore, no one present dared to make a sound. Only a few eunuchs watching from a distance snickered.
The emperor sang and they raised their hands, as if they were showing off their illustrious martial arts to those close to them. Of course, bullying their own guards was nothing worth showing off, but what the emperor took out next was enough to impress the guards. I am so greedy.
"The map is good. The drawings are generally correct, but it's not as good as mine."
Di Qing raised his head: "Did the officials also ask someone to buy the map from Fujian?"
Shi Wei next to him immediately slapped him in the face and cursed: "Does the government need to buy it? There must be someone..."
"Hey, you guessed it right." Zhao Zhen proudly took out a map of true knowledge from his arms, carefully unfolded it and spread it on the table, and then whispered to the guards around him, "Everyone knows everything." Stand up and look at the combat map that Mr. Li sent from the front line."
When the guards heard that it was sent back from the front line, they immediately jumped up like springs. Of course, forget about the one Zhao Zhen was sitting on - even though this guy was trying hard to raise his head, he was slapped by Zhao Zhen lightly. Went down.
The most annoying thing is that this dear friend's colleagues no longer care about his state at this time, because they are chattering about this more detailed map.
"You see, this line is drawn directly from Halicarnassus to Perge. The terrain of Perge is really dangerous. It is close to the sea on one side and there is a mountain blocking the road to the west."
"It's not the west. There are mountains on the west, north and east sides. It's impossible to capture the city with this kind of terrain. It's too easy to defend."
"Let me look at this mountain. Well, the name is really long. Why do the Yi people have such long names?"
"Oh, it's true. Mount Clemax, what's the name of this?"
Lying on the ground, the man also wanted to raise his head to see what the name and the very long mountain range looked like. His Majesty the Emperor's tonnage, which was neither light nor heavy, successfully suppressed him once again.
Because he has a little thing that he wants to show off to everyone here.
"This Halicarnassus is actually very far away from Perge, but do you know why Li Ning went straight to Perge?"
Di Qing was the first to wonder: "Why? Is it because he likes that mountainous land?"
"Hello, brother. You can often dig out some rare treasures and the like." Someone stood aside and echoed.
But Zhao Zhen immediately gave him a look, wishing that he could take over the lying position.
"It seems that you don't quite understand the alliance between us and the Kingdom of Marston. Li Ning had an agreement with their king, the one named Shanda. If he can help him defeat Persia, then all the seaside parts will be You can entrust it to him. But our dynasty only got the rotten bone of Phrygia at the beginning. And we had to fight it off ourselves. What makes me even more angry is that that bastard Shi Yuansun actually lost."
"How did the Caria region come about? Firstly, we did not completely defeat Persia, and secondly, we did not have the right to attack this area."
"This involves our latest agreement. I heard it was called a commodity distribution center, so we have the Karia region. But Macedonia is now also worried that we will use other excuses to defraud the territory."
"So... that young gentleman is not interested in this piece of forest land, because he can no longer open his mouth to ask for it."
"That's right. And he will not participate in the attack on the surrounding areas, especially the place called Lycia. In order to prevent the Macedonian nobles from worrying about his claim for territory again. Therefore, if he takes Perge directly, he will definitely have his intention. But his latest letter has not arrived yet, so even I don’t know what he is thinking.”
When he said this, a eunuch suddenly appeared not far away, shouting: "Guanjiaguanjia, the little gentleman's letter has arrived."
"That's great!" The direct relative, who was discussing with Emperor Zhao Zhen just now, was the first to get excited. It's just that he didn't notice that Tianzi's face had actually become quite ugly.
Before that, he had already speculated many times about what Li Ning had in mind. After much deliberation, the only trick he could determine was a risky move.
What was even more worrying was that when he opened the letter, Li Ning's overall plan began to slowly emerge in front of him, and the dangers contained in it made him sweat.
The one lying on the ground even felt the emperor's trembling and his wet fingers.
He didn't know what other formidable enemies the officials had today, but in any case, the threat from that enemy was growing.
After a long time, Emperor Zhao Zhen slowly spoke out his words: "Hanchen (characterized by Di Qing), you have to make a trip for me."
Di Qing's eyes widened immediately, and then he shouted excitedly: "I am willing to die laughing for your majesty!"
