Chapter 852: The Prince's Meritorious Service (Thanks to 'Medking' for becoming the leader of this book)
There are generally not many temporary court meetings, and once they are held, they often represent an accident.
So when the ministers came to the palace and saw a high-spirited emperor, they were all a little confused.
The official's face has been gloomy for two months, and today it finally cleared. It's not like something is going on.
Han Qi said with a smile: "The official family looks beaming, but is there a happy event?" ”
"Exactly."
Zhao Shu looked at the ministers, and the experience of the past two months was recalled one by one, and the anger in his heart gradually rose.
People with anxiety and depression are very careful and sensitive, and they can detect the slightest mistake.
Zhao Shu always felt that the courtiers were laughing at him for the past two months, so he kept holding back.
Now's your chance!
"Shen An and others traveled north to Xiongzhou and encountered more than 10,000 Liao troops ......"
Zhao Shu said slowly, pausing here.
Sure enough, he saw the courtiers with different expressions, most of them surprised and frightened.
Sure enough, I am still afraid of the Liao people in my bones!
He nodded slightly, and Chen Zhongheng went outside.
"Good Arrivals ......"
A sergeant walked into the hall, holding the good news in his hand.
Zhao Shu sat on it and said lightly: "Say." ”
The sergeant had been explained earlier, and now he said loudly: "...... Our army marched all the way north, encountered the enemy in Xiongzhou, and on the third day of the second month, our army raided the enemy in the early morning, and the two sides started a big battle......"
Han Qi clenched his fists, his face flushed, and he couldn't turn back time, so he rushed to Xiongzhou to command this battle.
"Our army is in array, with swords and axes in front, and the enemy cavalry is fiercely attacking...... Arrows rain down and long knives like forests......"
This statement is very poetic and immersive.
Chen Zhongheng glanced at this sergeant and felt that this guy had a future.
The ministers felt the coldness, and some couldn't help but turn white.
"The knife and axe hand is desperately killing, but the king is the army master alone, and the corpses in front of him are piled up, and every knife is bound to be broken...... The Liao army was terrified. ”
Axeman......
The officials here are all well-read poetry and books, and they immediately remembered the Mo Dao hand of the former Tang Dynasty.
The former Tang Dynasty had Mo knife hands, and the Great Song Dynasty also had knife and axe hands.
"The battle was fierce, and the Shenwei crossbow was constantly striking at the enemy army, causing huge casualties......"
There would be no victory without the Divine Crossbow, and the Blade Axe would not have been able to hold out for that long.
It's like a pawn defending in a trench in later generations, with the artillery behind constantly supporting it.
A foot soldier without artillery support is a lamb to the slaughter.
At this moment, the Shenwei crossbow is similar to artillery.
“…… The Liao army suddenly launched a general offensive, and our army launched a counterattack in a-for-tat manner...... The gunpowder was so powerful that the enemy was terrified by the bombing, and finally the enemy army was crushed......"
"Oh......"
There was a sigh of relief from inside the hall.
The ministers all looked relaxed, even proud.
Victory!
But one person had an ugly face, as if he had died of his father's mother.
Liu Zhan was tormented in pain.
The northbound army was led by Shen An, and this battle was a big victory, and his name as a famous general would resound throughout the Great Song Dynasty.
The point is that he has made meritorious service again!
Liu Zhan couldn't help but look at the legs of the ministers, which made everyone angry.
What does this mean?
Shen An has made meritorious contributions......
Liu Zhan expressed his meaning vaguely with his eyes.
Whose leg will be unlucky this time?
The sergeant who reported the victory continued," ...... The swords and axes ripped off their armor, but the lord of the king held a banner in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, chasing and killing all the way......"
"What a king!"
Han Qi couldn't help but applaud the king, if it weren't for being here, he even wanted someone to bring him a good wine and get drunk happily.
"Good!"
When the ministers heard this, their blood boiled and they applauded.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"After defeating the Liao army in this battle, I thought that Yelu Hongji would die of shame and indignation, and he didn't dare to peep south after that."
“……”
The Liao State is the long knife hanging above the head of the Great Song Dynasty for a hundred years, so that the Great Song Dynasty is like a man's back, and he is afraid of the Liao people suddenly going south.
Now that the Liao army was defeated in the first war, and it was still in the north, it was of great significance!
"The minister suggested that the soldiers of this battle be rewarded......"
"This battle has greatly boosted the morale of my Great Song Dynasty, and it should be rewarded."
"Last time, Shen An was a cavalry battle, but this time he was mainly a foot soldier. The foot soldiers can defeat the Liao army, this ...... People can't help but burst into tears! ”
The infantry defeated the elite cavalry of the Liao army, which represented that the Great Song Dynasty was not afraid of the impact of the Liao army.
"The sword and axe hand under Wang Ke's command is the most elite in the Great Song Dynasty, and the army next to him is afraid that it does not have this strength."
Someone pointed out the main points of this battle, but it was immediately refuted: "The Great Song Dynasty has a population of 100 million trillions, can't you find another king?" ”
Oh, yes!
The population of the Great Song Dynasty is innumerable, and it is not difficult to form a few sword and axe teams similar to those under the command of Wang Qi!
Everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed when they thought of this.
Some people probably have a deep-rooted fear of the Liao people, so they asked a question: "It is good to win this battle, but what if the Liao people report it in a big way?" ”
Even if he had heard the good news once before, Zhao Shu was still overjoyed, and explained with a rare and pleasant face: "This battle is the first to provoke the Liao, and it is in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, even if Yelu Hongji comes, I am not afraid!" ”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Bao Zheng took the lead in saluting, and the ministers didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
This official family seems to be a little reckless!
Zhao Shu coughed dryly, and the sergeant continued: "This battle is Shen Zhizhao's first soldier......"
This is the beginning of the performance.
The ministers listened carefully, pondering in their hearts how much credit Shen An had in this battle.
"The king of this battle is the first to ......"
The hall was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard.
The sergeant was a little confused, and the rest did not dare to say more.
Put Zhao Ji behind Shen An, this is because no one believes that he can lead the army to fight.
But this still made the ministers confused.
The prince actually went into battle?
You're afraid you're not coaxing me!
Yes, it must have been a battle in the Chinese army, and this can be regarded as a battle.
Ay! Shameless!
Everyone gradually came to their senses, and someone said with a dry smile: "The king...... The king can also be regarded as having seen the battle array, which is gratifying. ”
"Yes! Congratulations. ”
The ministers said words of congratulations kindly, but everyone squeezed their eyebrows at each other from time to time, and their minds were full of one word.
Take the blame!
The sergeant did not notice this dark tide and continued: "The king killed the enemy general......
Belch......
This one......
This one......
The ministers were completely stunned this time.
Only then did the general think that the prince was going to fight for his exploits, and he actually killed the enemy general......
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Dare to ask, is that after the heavy blow?" ”
Is it that the enemy general was injured and fell to the ground, Zhao Ji went up to make a gesture, and then cut a few slashes like pork to finish the matter.
But this can't be considered a war feat, right?
Yes, Shen An's house is here, and according to his methods, he will definitely try to make the prince make meritorious service.
That shameless Shen An!
Several officials who originally wanted to send people to the Shen family to congratulate after the dispersal of the dynasty dispelled that idea.
Such shameless people, the old man disdains to be with them.
The sergeant said with a stunned face: "This was killed on the way to chase and kill, the king bravely rushed to the front, and cut the enemy general off the horse with one sword, these are all seen by the soldiers of the whole army...... Where do you put the heroism of the king? Villain...... The villain feels aggrieved! Grievances for the king......"
The sergeant wept.
it!
It's true?
The official who came out to question stood there awkwardly, and Zhao Shu on top secretly wrote down his name, ready to settle accounts later.
"The king actually killed the enemy general?"
After being stunned for a moment, Han Qi couldn't help but go out of class happily: "Since Emperor Taizu, there have been three emperors in the Great Song Dynasty, Emperor Taizu Taizong can fight, and Emperor Zhenzong ...... It can also be conquest, this time the king rushed to kill in front, defeated the Liao army in a battle, this is the inheritance of the ancestors' heroic martial arts, and the minister congratulates His Majesty! ”
Zhenzong's campaign is actually to be a mascot to boost morale, so what Han Qi said about this can fight is a bit unnatural.
Zeng Gongliang regretted it again, he felt that he should strive to go to the north, after such a battle, he had a victory in the north and south, and there will definitely be a heavy stroke in the history books in the future, and the name of both civil and military can make the Zeng family prosperous for another hundred years......
What a pity!
He struggled to get out of class and congratulate his colleagues.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty."
Immediately, a thought came to everyone's mind.
Why was the prince impeached at that time?
It seems to say that the prince is young, almost ignorant, and blames the ministers without any merit......
But after this time, isn't the prince still sensible?
His merits......
Han Qi looked at the ministers and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.
Who has killed an enemy general here?
Zeng Gongliang killed the enemy army, that was fake. Han Qi had already investigated, Zeng Gongliang drew his sword and slashed people during the pursuit, but he didn't kill him, and was almost killed by a counterattack. If it weren't for the timely action of the sergeant, Lao Zeng would have buried his bones in the southwest.
it!
Han Qi was surprised to find that the prince actually suppressed hundreds of officials in martial arts.
So what was the last impeachment?
Didn't you say that the prince has no ability, no qualifications, and no merit?
Now he has.
What do you do?
"Your Majesty, the king has returned to Beijing."
"Oh!"
Zhao Shu almost couldn't help but want to stand up, but finally held back, tried to maintain a reserved posture and said, "Let him come." ”
Even the old-eyed Ouyang Xiu felt Zhao Ji's pride, not to mention the ministers.
Later, Zhao Ji, who was full of wind and dust, entered the hall.
After saluting, Zhao Shu asked lightly, "Why are you in such a hurry to return to Beijing?" ”
It was only half a day slower than Shen An, which shows the hardships of this journey.
He glanced at his son, and saw that the skin on his face was much rougher and darker, and he couldn't help but feel a little heartache.
This son is only sixteen years old!
I actually had to go to the side to go into battle.
"When I think of my relatives, my heart is like an arrow." Zhao Ji licked his lips and glanced at Zhao Shu.
Zhao Shu nodded and asked, "How are the Liao people?" ”
This is the topic, the harvest of Zhao Xuan's trip.
Zhao Ji said: "The Liao people are extremely fierce, if our army does not have a divine crossbow and gunpowder, I am afraid that it will be invincible." ”
He wanted to say that the Great Song Dynasty was invincible, but that would only mislead the Great Song monarchs and ministers and make a big mistake in the next big war with the Liao State.
"But we have Shenwei crossbows and gunpowder, but the Liao people don't."
Zhao Ji's words made everyone laugh, yes! The Great Song Dynasty had these weapons that could determine the outcome of the victory, but the Liao people did not.
Just as the Liao State has countless cavalry, I have no enemies, this is combat effectiveness.
Zhao Ji changed his words and said: "The minister traveled north this time, and he saw the scenery of the northern country, the Jin Ge Iron Horse, the tragedy, and the ......bravery."
Here it comes!
It's really coming!
The prince began to grieve over what had happened to him when he was driven out of the capital.
No, it's revenge!
……
Good night, fellow readers!
