Emperors of the Heavens: Summon the Governor of the East Factory at the beginning

Chapter 76: Imperial meeting, quelling the rebellion of Generalissimo Wang Li

Chapter 76: Imperial meeting, quelling the rebellion of Generalissimo Wang Li
The next day, Cangtian Hall of the Imperial Palace.

The civil and military officials looked around and found that there were a few new faces in the queue.

Especially behind the six ministers, there is a new person standing behind almost everyone.

Moreover, among the generals, there was also a black-armored general standing in front of Zhang Yuan, the commander of the Imperial Army.

It seems that the power of the Shenwei Palace has become much larger, and these new faces are basically the cronies arranged by Chu Yuan.

Aware of this, many officials began to feel uneasy and chilled.

Chu Yuan just appointed Wang Li as General Zuo Yuwei a few days ago, is it going to happen again today?
All the ministers were murmuring in their hearts. Is Chu Yuan not satisfied with the position of regent by so aggressively placing his cronies in the court?
The Da Cang Dynasty has been established for more than 3000 years, and they have never seen such a powerful prince!
While the thoughts of the ministers were racing, Chu Yuan spoke.

"You must be very confused now, wondering why the king came to court today."

"I don't want to be verbose, so I will tell you directly."

"I have received news that King Zhenshan has joined forces with the governors of Jingzhou and Pingzhou to rebel. This is exactly why I went to court today."

"The king of Zhenshan and other three states have all rebelled. I want to send troops to Lingzhou to attack the rebels. What advice do you have, and who is willing to lead the army?"

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials trembled.

rebellion!

How heavy are these two words?
What's more, the person who rebelled was the current king of Zhenshan, who was the late emperor's uncle.

This kind of thing is not a joke. If it is true, even if Zhenshan King has a noble status, he still cannot escape the fate of being punished.

Prime Minister Zhang Yuanbo took a step forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Zhenshan King's rebellion is a big cause for trouble. We must not make any mistakes."

"If you want to fight, you should use the power of thunder to quickly defeat the rebel king. Otherwise, I am afraid that the vassal kings everywhere will make changes, causing turmoil in the dynasty and instability in the country."

"Prime Minister Zhang is far-sighted and dedicated to serving the country. I feel very relieved."

Chu Yuan applauded, and then his tone suddenly changed, "But now King Zhenshan has gathered millions of troops to approach the capital. The situation is imminent. Do you have any countermeasures?"

Although Chu Yuan was not afraid of the Zhenshan King's rebellion, he still had control over the Emperor. If he did not use the power of the Emperor to openly suppress the rebel king.

Then Chu Yuan would have held the emperor for nothing!

At least now he is on the side of justice!
The civil and military officials below were whispering to each other and discussing a lot.

Chu Yuan noticed that some timid officials had panic on their faces.

Zhang Yuanbo spoke out: "I think that the prince should gather a large number of troops to attack in order to show the power of our military!"

"The Prime Minister's words make sense, and I agree with you!"

Zhou Qi, the Minister of Rites, said loudly.

"I also agree with the proposal. What the Prime Minister said makes sense."

"The king of Zhenshan has no emperor, please your majesty and prince to send troops to destroy him."

"."

All of a sudden, words of war rang out.

"Then I wonder who the ministers think we should send out troops to quell the rebellion?"

Chu Yuan looked around at the ministers and asked in a deep voice.

"Return to your majesty, prince, the general is willing to lead the army to go out!"

A loud voice resounded in the Cangtian Palace. Wang Li, the general of Zuo Yuwei, took a step forward and said loudly: "King Zhenshan raised his troops to rebel and ignored the Holy Grace."

"I am willing to lead a million soldiers to suppress the rebellion and capture the enemy's head alive to offer to the prince!"

"it is good!"

Chu Yuan shouted loudly and said: "General Wang Li is proficient in the art of war and has made great achievements in battle. It is most suitable for you to lead the army."

"General Zuo Yuwei Wang Li obeys the order!"

"The end is here!"

"This king appoints you as the generalissimo of the counter-rebellion. You will lead a hundred soldiers, 20 imperial troops, and 200 million soldiers from all the prefectures to set off immediately to send troops to Lingzhou without any mistakes."

"This king gives you the military talisman of the imperial court, which gives you the authority to mobilize soldiers and horses from various states as reinforcements."

"When things happen, you have the right to act cheaply, you can kill first and play later!"

Cao Zhengchun, who was next to the emperor's platform, put the imperial edict and military talismans into Wang Li's hands, and he took them over.

Wang Li knelt down and saluted and shouted: "The general has given the order to express his gratitude. I kowtow to thank you, Your Majesty!"

Chu Yuan looked around at everyone and spoke again, "Where is Wang Hai, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue?"

"Go back to your lord, I'm here!"

Wang Hai stood up from the queue and responded respectfully.

"I have ordered you to be responsible for supplying food and grass to Marshal Wang Li's army."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Then, Chu Yuan asked again: "Where is Su Xin?"

Su Xin stood up from the queue and responded loudly: "The end will be here."

"This king orders you to lead a hundred thousand city guards and be jointly responsible for transporting grain and grass with Wang Hai."

"While escorting the grain and grass, you are also the backup for the counter-rebellion army. You must be ready to assist Marshal Wang Li at any time and go into battle to kill the enemy!"

"The end will follow the order!"

King Zhenshan had at least 380 million troops from the three states, so Chu Yuan also sent an army of 200 million.

Coupled with the fact that Jin Yiwei was acting secretly and Wang Chongyang, who had returned, was in charge, there should be no chance of failure in quelling the chaos this time.

In order to allow Wang Li to contact Jin Yiwei, Chu Yuan secretly gave Wang Li a secret edict and told him the secret stations of Jin Yiwei in various places.

I believe that with Wang Li's leadership experience, he can achieve close cooperation with Jin Yiwei to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

The nine gates of the capital were sealed, and an army gathered outside the city.

Wang Li, the general of Zuo Yuwei, stood on the general platform. On both sides stood a mighty and upright general. They were Zhang Yuan, the commander of the Forbidden Army, and Su Xin, the chief general of the Shenwu Camp.

In addition to the soldiers from various states joining along the way, there were hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in the audience at this time, with flags flying fiercely.

On the general stage, Wang Li shouted loudly and issued military orders one after another, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops as if they were armies.

At the same time, rebel spies were dragged under the military flag one by one. Several soldiers stepped forward and beheaded them.

A column of blood gushes out, dyeing the red army flag.

Before the army goes out to fight, cut down the enemy's flag and sacrifice it.

Hundreds of thousands of troops roared in unison, and their morale was high.

Intense blood and murderous aura soared into the sky, gathering in the sky above the army, as if condensed into a terrifying ferocious giant beast.

Afterwards, the army set off, setting off billowing yellow sand.

Standing on the highest tower of the city wall, Chu Yuan could clearly see the wolf smoke rising into the sky.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. With General Wang Li going out, we will be able to defeat the rebels and capture the rebel king alive."

Behind Chu Yuan, Cao Zhengchun cupped his hands and said.

"With General Wang Li taking action, I, of course, can rest assured."

Wang Li is proficient in the art of war, wise but not violent, courageous and resourceful, making him a rare general.

During this expedition, Wang Li understood the importance of speed in war.

Therefore, after the army set off for the expedition, it only took half a month to reach the junction of Lingzhou, Wuzhou and Kyoto Prefecture, eight thousand miles away from the capital.

Lingwu City is the only city between the two prefectures and Kyoto Prefecture that can garrison troops and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is also here that the armies of Zhenshan King and Jing and Ping Prefectures meet.

Now, Wang Li took the lead in opening the gate of Lingwu City with the imperial edict and Shang Fang Baojian, and temporarily took over the [-] troops stationed in the city.

So far, the balance of victory has tilted.

Wang Li captured Lingwu City, and it was too late for Zhenshan King to attack again.

And his late step was enough to defeat him, eventually leading to the loss of millions of troops in one fell swoop!
