Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 22 Detailed Military Report

There was a faint sound of thunder outside, and bolts of lightning slid across the dark night sky, as if splitting the sky.

The sound of pattering rain came clearly from outside the window.

From slow to urgent, it hit the window lattice, making a crisp sound.

Jiyi Hall is brightly lit.

"August [-], the army received the report, and the bandits led a crowd of [-]. They wanted to attack my rear army. After sending Wu Kezhong, the Marquis of Gongshun, to lead [-] officers and troops, they fought at Leijia Station and were completely wiped out by the enemy."

"At the time of Shen, the army reported to the Central Army, and the top was furious, and then sent Cheng Guo Gong Zhu Yong, Yongshun Bo Xue Shou, and led an official army of [-] to pursue the thieves and captives."

"Zhu Yong rushed forward greedily, chased the thieves to Yao'erling, and was ambushed by more than [-] thieves. Zhu Yong and Xue Shou were both killed in battle. More than [-] of our officers died in battle, and the remnants returned to the central army. Wang Zhen Since the army has repeatedly failed, I hastily ordered the army to retreat."

Yu Qian stood in the middle of the group of ministers, holding a military newspaper in his hand, his face was straight, he could not see his emotions, and his voice sounded very calm.

It was the first time that many courtiers in this hall had seen this kind of military newspaper without any deletion.

At this moment, I just felt dizzy.

In the past, even if it was defeated, it was only a small-scale battle between thousands of officers and troops.

The generals who died in battle were no more than the rank of generals.

But now, Yu Qian just read it out.

The loss exceeded 2 people.

Not to mention, a duke, a marquis, and an earl were also killed in battle.

These are all high-ranking nobles who are hereditary and irreplaceable!

Although most of the civil servants did not like these arrogant and domineering military ministers.

However, for Daming, it is a shame and shame that such a rank of honor and relatives were killed by the enemy!
For a while, the calm atmosphere in the hall was vaguely boiling again.

But this time, the ministers were indignant.

Outraged Vala!

Back then, the barbarians of Mobei, who were chased and beaten by Taizu and Taizong, who tremblingly surrendered to the mighty military power of the two former emperors, dared to offend the might of the Great Ming Dynasty.

At the same time, I am also indignant to Wang Zhen!
With more than 20 battle-ready officers and troops, it doesn't matter if they can't win.

It was so badly defeated.

To describe him with incompetence is to flatter him!

Of course, there may be people who are angry with the Son of Heaven...

Indignant that he favored the ministers and acted recklessly.

But this time, no one dared to speak.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the boiling atmosphere in the hall and sighed secretly.

This is an appetizer, can't you accept it?

However, there were [-] casualties, and only three high-ranking nobles died.

Daming has never suffered such a big defeat in the past few decades.

But compared to the next, real drama meat, where is this!
I just hope that these courtiers will be stronger.

Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and pressed it down, and the faces of the elders sitting beside him also sank.

The buzzing atmosphere in the hall slowly subsided.

Yu Qian also stopped, he stood closer to Zhu Qiyu, so Zhu Qiyu could clearly see that the hand he held the military newspaper was faintly bulging.

He was trying his best to control his emotions. Under this calm appearance, hidden endless anger.

After he calmed down a little, Zhu Qiyu signaled him to continue.

Yu Qian's voice became steady again, said.

"Because of the hasty retreat, the army has not been able to keep up with thousands of cargo vehicles."

"August [-], the car drove to the Tumu Fort [-] miles outside of Huailai City. Wang Zhen ordered to camp on the spot and wait for the baggage vehicles to catch up."

"At that time, the Minister of War, Kuang Ye, strongly advised him to drive into Juyongguan as soon as possible in order to protect the safety of the saint. He was angrily reprimanded by Wang Zhen and ordered to be expelled from the left and right. The accompanying ministers no longer dared to remonstrate."

"The Tumu Fort is high and there is no water. Our officers and soldiers dug wells several zhang, but there is no water. When the army of thieves and captives chased after them, they used the river as their camp. Our army was hungry and thirsty, and morale was low."

"That night, the thieves and captives increased their troops from Mayukou, trying to form a siege."

"The defending generals at Mayukou all commanded Guo Mao to lead the army of guarding officers to fight, killing more than [-] enemies. However, the bandits and captives continued to increase their troops. Guo Mao died in battle, and the guards were destroyed."

"At this point, the siege of the bandits and captives has been completed. Our army's heavy grain and grass have been cut off by the enemy. There is no danger to defend around the place where we are stationed, and the water source is cut off, and people are panicked."

Many ministers present have closed their eyes in pain.

The baggage was robbed, the water source was cut off, surrounded by the enemy, there was no danger to defend...

They could almost imagine what was going to happen next.

more than this.

He had already cursed at Wang Zhen in his heart.

You can kill yourself by playing more and less, but he is truly a talent!
The ministers accompanying him are also soft-hearted.

One Wang Zhen scared you all.

If there is a mistake in the holy drive, you are all sinners of the Ming Dynasty!

Not bad.

At this point, the ministers present finally realized a terrible fact.

In such a bad situation, how can there be no reason to be defeated?

Contact Yu Qian said that the Chinese army was destroyed by thieves.

It seems that the defeat of the army this time is a certainty.

So, what happened to the holy car in the central army?

The ministers present were rarely quiet.

In the entire Jiyi Hall, needles can be heard falling.

Everyone's eyes are focused on Yu Qian alone.

Yu Qian took a deep breath and said.

"On the fifteenth day of the eighth month, our officers and men were trapped for two days. The army was trapped and exhausted, and wanted to retreat to Huailai City. However, the army of captives and thieves stood firm five miles away, and sent wandering horses around the camp. Prominent, all repelled.”

"It was night, when the captives retreated, Wang Zhen ordered the army to move out, and traveled two miles. The captives and bandits clashed from all sides, and our army was crushed."

"In this campaign, more than 17 of our officers and soldiers have been confirmed dead and injured, and more than 12 have been confirmed as the number of civilians in the logistics service. Thirty thousand remnants and 11 civilians have been gathered in each pass city, scattered all over the place. A total of [-] people whose lives and deaths are unknown."

"The ministers of honor and Qi who accompanied him, those of the third rank and above, less than five people survived, and they have been sent back to the capital. Those below the third rank are not counted, and the list of the dead is attached."

Despite all the previous preparations, all the ministers present have repeatedly raised their estimates of casualties in this war.

But when I actually heard it, my heart still felt extremely heavy.

There are 50 troops in the army, and more than [-] officers and soldiers can fight.

In the military newspaper alone, more than 17 officers and soldiers have been confirmed dead.

Such casualties can be regarded as annihilation of the entire army!
That's an army of hundreds of thousands!
Hundreds of thousands of pigs, surrounded by thieves to kill.

He also had to kill for a few days and nights.

All the ministers were in their hearts, and they fiercely sprayed the blood of Wang Zhen's scolding.

But they also knew that at this time, scolding Wang Zhen would not solve the problem.

Yu Qian has said it for so long, and there is one most important key that has not been said.

All the ministers present held their breath and stared at Yu Qian, as if if he said a wrong word, they would rush up and strip him alive.

Yu Qian glanced at the elders who were sitting firmly, calmed down, and said solemnly.

"The holy car is safe, but it was held by the thieves and traveled north. Except for one of the inner ministers who was Xi Ning, the accompanying officials, including Wang Zhen, all died in disaster."

Wang Zhen is dead, no one cares at this time.

But I heard that the holy car was captured by thieves...

There was silence for a moment.

Suddenly there were two muffled beeps.

Zhu Qiyu followed the voice and looked over.

But I saw two old men with gray hair.

He fell to the ground on the spot, unconscious...
