Chapter 158 How can the barbarians go south in winter
Hearing the words "Northland Express" coming from outside the Xuanzheng Hall, everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment.

Especially the officials of the Jiangnan aristocratic family sent by the eighth prince, their hearts skipped a beat, and they suddenly had a bad premonition.

Northland Express?

What can happen to the North at this time?
Not long ago, the 30 army of the Sirius King stumbled in Yancheng, and there was a gossip that the Northern King had disbanded the entire Sirius King tribe.

The biggest threat to the Northland is gone, why is there an urgent report from the Northland at this time?

Is it possible...

The King of the North turned against him? ? ?

Just when people were confused about what could happen to Beidi, the red silk messenger entered the hall and said loudly: "The king of Beixian led an army of nearly 20 troops to the south, and Beijun is at stake!!!"

Hearing the words of the red silk messenger, the people in the hall were stunned, even Emperor Xia was startled.

This is too coincidental, right?

Just as the court decided to send the Northern King's [-] heavy cavalry to the front, something went wrong in the North.

Sirius King's 30 army stumbled in Beijun, and Beixian King dared to bring people to attack Beijun?

Is the North Korean king's head so hard?
Doesn't he know that there are fifty thousand heavy cavalry in Beijun?

Or is he not afraid of these [-] heavy cavalry at all?
After the eunuch under the dragon platform came back to his senses, he quickly took the battle report from the red silk messenger, then walked to Xia Huang's side, and handed the battle report to Xia Huang.

Emperor Xia directly opened the battle report, and seriously read the military situation written in the battle report.

At this time, the ministers in the hall were all staring at Emperor Xia, they really wanted to know what was written in the battle report.

After reading the entire battle report, Emperor Xia snorted coldly and said, "It's really deceiving people to go south again and again to plunder."

Speaking of this, Emperor Xia glanced at the ministers, and then said: "The King of the North asked me for help in the battle report, saying that the Battle of Yancheng had caused heavy losses to Beijun, and he was unable to fight against the 20 troops of the King of North Korea. What do you think of being able to send a large army to help Beijun resist the barbarians going south, my loves?"

This……

The ministers in the hall looked at me and I looked at you. Just now, they were thinking of letting the Northern King’s [-] heavy cavalry go to the front line of Dawu to consume them. The next moment, the Northern King turned to the court for help.

Isn't there something wrong with that.

No barbarian goes south in winter.

The barbarians' going south was nothing more than plundering food for the winter, and grabbing some women by the way. Most of them went south in autumn, and at most they only went south when winter was about to enter.

Now that the Northland is already covered with ice and snow, wouldn't it be a pleasure to go south at this time?
Could it be that the king of Beixian is getting old and his brain is not working properly?
Or is there any particular reason for this?

Could it be that the King of the North knew that the imperial court would send heavy cavalry from Beijun to fight Dawu, so he colluded with the King of North Korea to create the illusion that the King of North Korea would go south to plunder?
But the imperial court has just decided to send the Northern King to the front line!Even Emperor Xia's imperial decree has not yet been drawn up, how did the Northern King know in advance that the imperial court would send him to fight Dawu.

After a while, Wang Chengshuo, the servant of the Ministry of War, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have never heard that the barbarians will go south in winter. Could it be that there is something wrong with the Northern King's information?"

Throughout the period since the founding of Great Xia, the barbarians have plundered south in spring, plundered south in summer, and plundered south in autumn and south, but they have never plundered south in deep winter.

It is hard to believe that this report is true.

The key is that the tribe of the Sirius King was defeated by the King of the North in Beijun not long ago, and nearly 20 barbarians died. Could it be that the King of the North is not afraid that they will also stumble in the North County?

Moreover, the North Korean King only had 20 people this time, which was even 10 fewer than when the Sirius King attacked Beijun.

Sirius King's 30 people were defeated, and a North Korean king with 20 people dared to fight Beijun in winter?Who gave North Korea the courage?
After hearing Wang Chengshuo's words, Emperor Xia said expressionlessly: "It is the Shadow Guard's duty to determine whether the battle report is true or not. What you need to discuss now is whether to send troops to the north to help the King of the North resist the army of the King of North Korea."

As soon as this remark came out, Chu Qinwu immediately said: "Your Majesty, the frontline battle is tight now, and the imperial court is unable to divide the troops. If we divide the troops and go north at this time, we may be unable to resist the attack of Dawu."

"I believe that there are 30 heavy cavalry in Beijun, and the King of the North is brave and good at fighting. The last time the Sirius King led an army of 20 to the south, he was able to achieve great military exploits. This time, facing the [-] army of the King of North Korea, it should not be too much. Too big a problem."

Just after Chu Qinwu finished speaking, before Emperor Xia could speak, the left prime minister Lin Gaoyuan, who had been silent for a long time, finally stood up and spoke.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the last time Beijun resisted the Sirius King's 30 army, it had caused heavy losses to Beijun. Moreover, the reason why Beijun was able to win the battle in the Wanning River Valley was entirely because the Beijun took advantage of the terrain."

"The barbarians have been fooled once, and they may not make the same mistake this time, so I think we should send some soldiers to the north to resist the barbarians with the king of the north. Even if we don't send troops, we should send some supplies to the king of the north."

"If Beijun falls, Daxia will be under the attack of Dawu and the barbarians. By then, Daxia's situation will be even more dangerous."

Hearing this, Chu Qinwu was about to refute, but the Prime Minister Zhao Wenhan stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Prime Minister Lin. The mountainous areas of Beijun are an excellent location to resist the barbarians. Once Beijun falls, the entire Great Xia will be destroyed." will be at the head of the barbarians."

This……

After hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, the officials of the Eighth Prince's faction were stunned.

Isn't Zhao Wenhan, an old fellow, one of them? Why is he speaking for the Northern King now?
They also wished that all the heavy cavalry of the North King would be killed by the King of North Korea.

What are you doing sending troops north at this time?
At this time, Zhao Wenhan continued: "But I think that compared with Beijun, we should pay more attention to the war with Dawu. The division of troops is extremely unfavorable to the court, so I suggest that only [-] soldiers be sent to the north with some supplies. , Beijun has an advantage in terrain, and the king of Beibei is brave and good at fighting, if he just defends Beijun, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Emperor Xia thought for a while, and then said: "Shangshu Wang, Shangshu Chu, Prime Minister Lin, and Prime Minister Zhao stay, and the rest leave the court."

After the words were finished, Emperor Xia got up from the dragon chair, flicked his sleeves, and left directly.

Seeing Emperor Xia leave, there was a lot of discussion in the Xuanzheng Hall. At this moment, some people still suspect that the battle report of Beijun is fake. The King of Beixian did not go south with the Sirius King last time, so he just borrowed some soldiers to the Sirius King. How could he personally lead troops south to plunder this time.

And it's still winter.

The most important thing is that this incident happened too coincidentally. Originally, the court planned to let the King of the North go to the front to fight Dawu.

This has to make people suspect that it was not a coincidence that the king of North Korea went south.

At this time, Chu Qinwu looked at Zhao Wenhan and asked, "Master Zhao, why do you still ask His Majesty to send troops north?"

Hearing this question, some ministers focused their eyes on Zhao Wenhan. Zhao Wenhan sneered and said: "Beijun is the gateway to Daxia. Without Beijun, the whole Daxia will be threatened by the barbarian cavalry. Don't tell me the old man won't let you?" If His Majesty dispatches troops, won’t His Majesty dispatch troops to the north?”

This……
