Gao Wu Da Xia: The fox demon lady at the beginning

Chapter 228 Tianbeiguan

After all, Han Chufan's reputation and prestige were too high before, but now he suddenly disappeared at a critical moment like the national war. Many people couldn't accept it.

Especially the people of Yanzhou are eagerly waiting for Han Chufan's appearance.

They all knew that if Han Chufan's Northwest Army didn't participate in the battle, these forces alone would not be able to stop the more than [-] Wu Clan's army at all.

Northwest military town, Ping'an City.

Fatty Wang Qiang, Minister of Government Affairs, Liu Tianfei, Minister of Military Affairs, Chen Jingwan, Minister of Finance, Le Shibo, Minister of Education, Liu San, Minister of Industry, and the directors below were pacing back and forth.

"The imperial court has been urging our Northwest Army Town to send troops to Tianbeiguan, but now that the Lord is not around, what should we do?" the fat man said anxiously.

"We have no choice but to wait until the Lord comes back." Liu Tianfei said, "Old Geng, have you ANBU people contacted the Lord?"

Geng Chunping shook his head, "My lord, I lost contact with the ANBU people after I arrived at Wanghai City. I don't know where I went."

"What do you guys think?" The fat man looked at Chen Jingwan and the others.

In the absence of Han Chufan, the military and political affairs of the northwest military town were decided by votes of several of their ministers.

"Wait for your lord to come back." Chen Jingwan said.

"what about you?"

"I also agree to wait until your Excellency comes back and wait for the imperial court's decree." Le Shibo and Liu San also expressed their stance.

"Okay, then let's wait for you to come back. I believe you will be back soon. How can such an important national battle be without our northwest military town?" Liu Tianfei said.

As the Minister of Military Affairs, Liu Tianfei has the most say on whether to send troops.

The northwest military town is waiting for Han Chufan's return.

Tianbeiguan.

Nan Jianzhi, the governor of Yanzhou, looked at the north with a solemn face. The Wu tribe's army was getting closer and closer to Tianbei Pass.

"Mr. Governor, can we hold on?" Gao Yunsheng, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town, said worriedly.

He is not very optimistic about this war.

"I'm afraid that his grandma will fight with the dog Tatars." Tong Weifu, the burly general soldier of Huding Town, shouted with a loud voice.

"Then you, Hunding Town, will serve as the vanguard, knock down the Tatars, and avenge the brothers in Jingyuan Town." Ban Shaokui, the commander-in-chief of Taiying Town, said sarcastically.

The two of them usually fight openly and secretly in Youzhou, and they are not very easy to deal with.

"Grandma, you're so sarcastic about this little guy. It's your fault whether I'm a pioneer or not, who are you?" Tong Weifu suddenly became angry.

"Huh? Last year, your Hunding Town robbed a batch of grain from our Taiying Town, and I haven't settled the score with you yet."

"Grandma, what a ball, you just entered the early stage of Qi and Blood Realm, and you floated into the sky? I stepped into the Qi and Blood Realm several years earlier than you, and you are going to make gestures."

"Just make gestures, whoever is a coward will be the grandson."

Tong Weifu, the commander-in-chief of Hunding Town, and Ban Shaokui, the commander-in-chief of Taiying Town, refused to obey anyone, so they rolled up their sleeves and started to work.

"Calm down, two generals, please don't harm your peace with the enemy now." The generals of Datong Town met together and tried to smooth things over on the side.

"Come on, grandma, I will kill this insidious villain today."

"It's not yet certain who will kill whom."

The governor of Yanzhou, Nan Jianzhi, looked at the two of them coldly and scolded: "How dignified are you? If you make any more noise, you will be punished by military law."

"Huh, Lord Governor, I'm a little unwell, so I'll take my leave first." Tong Weifu cupped his hands and left without looking back.

"The general also resigned." Ban Shaokui also left directly.

The two of them were used to being arrogant in Youzhou, and they had elite soldiers in their hands. The governor of Youzhou was not very proud, let alone the governor of Yanzhou.

Nan Cambodian Zhiqi's body was trembling. He pointed at the two people leaving, and it took him a long time to speak: "Zhuzi."

Qi Zai, the commander-in-chief of Datong Town, and Lu Dazhang, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town, looked at each other and smiled bitterly. How can we fight this battle?

There is a gap between the general soldiers and the general soldiers, how to cooperate to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

At that time, fearing that they would be at a slight disadvantage, they would all run away.

Cheng Rongxin, the commander-in-chief of Baiji Town, and Cheng Paopao, the commander-in-chief of Baekje Town, are living examples.

Now the situation in Daxia is getting more and more chaotic.

The commander-in-chief of all states put the preservation of their troops first. As long as they have troops in hand, even if I run away before the battle, the court will not dare to do anything to me.

Governors and governors, the court can detain them as long as they want. Do you dare to detain the general soldiers who have soldiers in their hands?

You really made me anxious. I rebelled against you.

With Cheng Paopao's example, the generals from various places became more and more arrogant.

"Sir, calm down." Gao Yunsheng, the local commander of Liaodong Town in Yanzhou, said helplessly.

As the local commander-in-chief, his interests are all in Yanzhou, and he still wants to fight with all his strength to protect Tianbei Pass and Yanzhou.

Nan Jianzhi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Where is Marquis Wu'an's capital camp?"

"Reporting to the governor, Marquis Wu'an's capital camp has entered Yanzhou and will reach Tianbei Pass tomorrow."

Nan Jianzhi nodded, "Is there any news about the Duke of Zhenguo?"

"Not yet." The deputy general below shook his head.

South Cambodia sighed, without the Northwest Army, the battle of Beiguan would be difficult to fight today.

The pressure on him is great. Once this battle is defeated, Daxia will really be doomed.

The one in Southern Cambodia is the current governor of Yanzhou. He cannot escape the blame and is likely to be executed by his entire family.

The families of the feudal officials of various states were all in the imperial capital, which was also the imperial court's method of restricting them.

The governor has great power in each state and controls the military and political power of a state.

In the peaceful and prosperous times, the general soldiers in the state would not dare to be as arrogant as they are now. The governors could kill them.

Now that the world is in chaos, the generals who have force and army are becoming more and more powerful.

"Where did Han Chufan go in this crucial battle?" Nan Cambodian thought helplessly.

The South Cambodian Emperor still admired Han Chufan very much. He was both civil and military, and had unparalleled loyalty. Like him, he was a loyal minister of Daxia.

Qi Zaiyu, the commander-in-chief of Datong Town, and Lu Dazhang, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town, were also wondering where Han Chufan had gone.

The two of them had lived in peace in Yunzhou for too long, and suddenly without the protection of Han Chufan's Northwest Army, they had no sense of security at all.

One day later, Wu'an Hou Minjian led the Beijing camp and arrived at Tianbeiguan.

"Is there any news about Duke Zhen Guo?" The first thing Min Jian did after arriving was to ask about Han Chufan's news.

Knowing that there was no news about Han Chufan, Min Jian shook his head helplessly.

This battle at Tianbeiguan is a nationwide battle between the Wu clan and the human clan.

It attracted the attention of countless people, and the barbarians, monsters, and Buddhist countries in the west were also paying attention to this battle.

Whether Han Chufan will participate in the war has undoubtedly become the focus of this war.

The Northwest Army has gained a reputation of being invincible over the years. Whether the Northwest Army can participate in the war is an important factor affecting the outcome of this national war.

After the Wu tribe army broke through Jingyuan Town in Yanzhou, it advanced southward.

Invincible along the way, they have advanced to a place more than 100 miles away from Tianbeiguan.This is the most majestic pass in the north of Daxia, and also the most majestic pass in the world. It can be said that the Wu clan is very familiar with it.

After the Battle of Daling River 20 years ago, the Wu clan had attacked here several times, but had never broken through this great pass.

Each time they just bypassed Tianbei Pass to plunder, or invaded Daxia from the direction of Yunzhou and Youzhou.

Once this powerful pass is breached, the journey south will be smooth sailing.

Not only are the three northern states in danger, but even the capital of Daxia will be exposed to the iron cavalry of the Wu clan.

"Your Majesty, we are almost at Tianbei Pass." In front of the banner of the Wu Clan army, a middle-aged man in yellow robe looked into the distance.

He is Tuoda, the emperor of Daqian of the Wu clan, and his full name is Ren Yuzongzheng Tuoda.

The third emperor of the Wu clan after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

It was he who launched the Battle of Daling River against Daxia 20 years ago, establishing the prosperous age of the Wu clan.

Tuoda is now over 40 years old. He has been practicing martial arts all year round and is very strong.

Beside him were the two princes of Daqian, Prince Su Ren Yuzong Zhengyinxiang, Tuo Da's younger brother.

The other one is Prince Gong Ren Yuzong Zhengyuehe, who is Tuo Da's uncle.

There are three princes in Daqian. In addition to Prince Su Yinxiang and Prince Gong Yuehe, there is also Prince Shuo Mu Xiao, who is also Tuo Da's younger brother.

The three princes were all powerful warriors and had made great contributions to Da Qian's campaigns in the north and south.

Especially Yue He and Yin Xiang, fought bloody battles for several days in the Battle of Daling River and killed many famous generals in Daxia.

This time Emperor Tuo Da of Da Qian led an army to attack Tianbeiguan. Prince Shuo Mu Xiao was sitting in the imperial city of Da Qian and did not come.

"We must capture Tianbei Pass this time." Tuo Da looked in the direction of Tianbei Pass in the south and said firmly.

"Long live the Wu clan, long live your majesty." The surrounding flag masters, Gu Shan'erzhen, shouted excitedly.

Tuo Da led them to win the Battle of Daling River, and not long ago, they defeated the barbarian royal guards.

Among the Wu clan, Tuoda has established great prestige and is fanatically worshiped by countless Wu clan soldiers.

No one in the Wu clan dared to object to Tuo Da's order.

Just like the attack on Beiguan in Great Xia Tian, ​​after Tuo Da gave the order, the Wu clan began to operate quickly, and soon gathered an army of 10,000+ and headed south.

Then all of a sudden, the army of Jingyuan Town, which was stationed in the northern part of Yanzhou, hadn't reacted.

For the same emperor, Emperor Daxia Yingxuan's prestige among the human race was far inferior to Emperor Daqian's Tuo Da.

After the Wu tribe conquered the eastern territory of the barbarians, they slowly digested that large piece of grassland and secretly signed an alliance with the barbarian queen mother.

With no worries anymore, the Wu clan began planning to attack Tianbeiguan in Daxia a few months ago.

This time the Wu Clan has assembled its most elite army, and is bound to break through Tianbei Pass, once again reenact the legend of the Battle of Daling River, and take a big piece of flesh from the weakened Daxia.

The barbarians are really too poor, and the wealthy Daxia is the ultimate goal of the Wu tribe.

The land of the Central Plains is full of fatal temptations for foreigners like them.

Only by capturing the Central Plains can they become the masters of this world, and their witch clan will gain supreme glory.

The army of the Wu clan is heading south, getting closer and closer to Tianbeiguan.

The Tianbeiguan War is about to break out, and the entire Great Xia is very depressed and tense.

In the Daxia court.

"Yan Aiqing, are all the grain and grass shipped to Yanzhou Tianbeiguan ready?" Emperor Yingxuan asked while sitting on the dragon throne.

As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first. Food and grass are the most important to the army.

The 20 shi of grain and grass promised by the imperial court had not yet arrived at Tianbeiguan.

The governor of Yanzhou, Nanjianzhi, made several memorials, requesting the imperial court to allocate grain and grass as soon as possible.

Yan Xing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, in recent years there have been severe droughts in the states of Daxia, coupled with the rebellion in the central region.

The Ministry of Household Affairs is running low on money and food. It is impossible to collect 20 shi of food and grass in a short period of time. "

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yan is just trying to shirk. I am a great Xia Dynasty. Can't I even get 20 stones of food and grass?"
I think Mr. Yan has ulterior motives and wants to deliberately delay this battle for national destiny. Chi Xiangxian, the left censor doctor, stood up and scolded angrily.

He was from Zhang Rulin's party, so how could he let go of this opportunity to attack the Southeast Party.

"Lord Chi is right. Yan Xing, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, has been in charge of the Ministry of Revenue for many years. He has been corrupt and perverted the law, resulting in an empty treasury.

Now it has delayed the transportation of grain and grass for this national war. Once the national war at Tianbeiguan fails, I will be in great danger.

Please Your Majesty, please kill this national traitor, rectify the national law, and calm the morale of the army. "He Zhen, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, also jumped out and said righteously.

He is a member of the Eunuch Party and a general under the Eunuch Party. He also launched an attack on Yan Xing, the leader of the Southeast Party.

Back in Zuihua Tower, the stupid son who said my father was a doctor from the Ministry of Industry was actually He Zhen's son.

"He Zhen, you are talking nonsense. Your Majesty wants to impeach He Zhen. He Zhen cut corners and embezzled nearly 10 taels of silver when building the Taiqing Palace. Please investigate strictly."

How could the Southeastern Party members be so honest and passive in being beaten? They launched a counterattack.

"You are just talking nonsense, do you have any evidence?"

"Of course I have evidence. This is a handwritten letter from several officials of your Ministry of Industry, listing the specific amounts of money you embezzled."

"You are bold, falsified evidence, and deceived the king."

"Your Majesty, please kill He Zhen."

"Your Majesty, please kill Yan Xing."

"Your Majesty, the Southeastern Party members are harming the country."

"Your Majesty, the people of the Eunuch Party and the Zhang Party cover the sky with one hand and deceive Your Majesty. Please drive these villains out of the court."

The bickering in the Daxia court began again.

Even in this life-or-death moment of national war, these civil servants still put party struggle first.

Regardless of the raging flood outside, my interests and status are the most important.

"Shut up, everyone." Emperor Yingxuan was completely angry. "What time has it been? You are still fighting in the party here. Whoever makes a noise in the hall again will get a fifty-year imperial staff."

Seeing that Emperor Yingxuan was furious, the civil servants of the three parties did not dare to continue their quarrels and stood still.

As far as their faces are concerned, not to mention the fifty-year-old imperial staff, they will be beaten to death with twenty-year imperial staff.

These civil servants were still very afraid of Emperor Yingxuan. More than a dozen civil servants died at the hands of Emperor Yingxuan.

Even the governor of the thirteen states, Emperor Yingxuan, was beheaded.

"Yan Xing, no matter what method you use, you must collect 20 stones of food and grass for me within two days.

If you can't see food, don't even want your head. "

"I obey the order." Yan Xing reluctantly accepted the order.

The members of the Zhang Party and the Eunuch Party were secretly delighted. These 20 shi of grain were enough for the Southeast Party, and the corrupt people usually had to spit out a lot.

Zong Bao took the memorial, looked at the back and looked happy, and spoke in Emperor Yingxuan's ears.

Emperor Yingxuan burst out laughing after hearing this, "Dear ladies, I have good news for you. Lord Zhen Guo has led the Northwest Army to Tianbei Pass."
