Chapter 651 The Southern State Expedition

The two maids also followed up in the house after bowing.

Shang Chaozong exhaled a long breath from the sky, and his expression was extremely complicated.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he didn't know how to speak, Fang Zhi hadn't said anything to Feng Ruonan for a long time, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

The reason why this is the case this time and the reason why the attitude has changed is naturally related to Meng Shanming's persuasion.

After Meng Shanming mentioned it, he knew that he had misunderstood Niu Youdao.

I realized that I didn't move my troops before, but it was really not time, but now everything is ready, and I only owe the Nanzhou army to go on the expedition!

Only then did I realize that the previous harsh reprimand even said that 'the reckless, die' was not arrogant and domineering, but to curb his hot-headedness.

I realized that the previous interception of military rations was not to preserve strength, but to keep that batch of military rations from being lost to the greatest extent, but to let the batch of military rations borrowed by Dayan play the greatest role, and at the same time reduce the burden on the people of Nanzhou.

The inside and outside of this not only dragged down the rebels, but also forced the imperial court to give military power.

It can be seen how much effort Dao Ye has spent on this, and it is really for him Shang Chaozong, for his Nanzhou, and for Dayan.

He was deeply ashamed of his previous misunderstanding, and found that he was indeed living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and he was really ashamed!

Therefore, after Meng Shanming explained the reason and conveyed Niu Youdao's words to Feng Ruonan, Shang Chaozong really couldn't find any reason to refuse, and he didn't have the courage to refuse.

Before and after, from beginning to end, everything proves that Niu Youdao is right, do you still need to doubt Niu Youdao's decision in front of him?

Meng Shanming looked back at him who was sighing, and then looked back at the room with the door closed, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and a look of emotion.

Earlier, Niu Youdao helped Feng Ruonan stand on the side, and he had always done it more obscurely, obviously not wanting the prince to feel that he was arrogantly meddling in the prince's family affairs.

I thought that the past was over, who thought that he had been thinking about waiting for the right opportunity.

This decisive and unmistakable intervention made him sigh that this measure and timing were really just right!

He was completely convinced, and he really couldn't believe that a young man at such a young age had such a superb ability to control things, he couldn't believe that a young man of this age could do something, and many things needed to be experienced!

I have to sigh in my heart, there are really geniuses in this world!

He thought of the old acquaintance Dong Guo Haoran who liked to have a kind smile on his face, but he didn't expect Dong Guo Haoran to leave such a closed disciple here......

A few people in the house came out, and Shang Shuqing walked out with a smile and accompanied a female general wearing battle armor.

Meng Shanming smiled and bowed his head.

Feng Ruonan, who was wearing battle armor, walked up to the two, and seemed a little uncomfortable, wearing the clothes he was used to when he came out to see people, he was a little embarrassed.

Shang Chaozong looked at it, noticed it, and found that Feng Ruonan had lost a lot of weight, his armor was no longer so close-fitting, a little loose, and his belt was tightened and his waist was reduced.

He also noticed that Feng Ruonan, who had put on the battle armor again, had a different look in his eyes, although he was timid, he had a spirit, and an indescribable spirit came to her again.

"Alright. Feng Ruonan replied in embarrassment.

In fact, it was far from half an hour.

"Let's go!" Shang Chaozong pushed Meng Shanming and turned around......

Outside the Assassin's Mansion, a group of people and horses had already assembled, and except for the occasional sneezing of horses, everyone stood silently.

A group of people came out of the mansion gate, and it was Shang Chaozong and Feng Ruonan who walked in the front, a man and a woman stepping out side by side.

A group of generals standing quietly outside the gate couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this.

Shang Chaozong turned over on the horse, Feng Ruonan also turned over on the horse, and the couple attracted everyone's attention.

Meng Shanming was also given a horse, a special saddle.

He could not sit still in a normal saddle, his feet were disabled and he could no longer control the horse, and there was a fixed low guardrail around the saddle.

The army went on the expedition, and Meng Shanming didn't want to be in a wheelchair, at least not now.

There is a carriage prepared for him, but he doesn't need it now, and he will talk about it on the road, now is the time to boost the morale of the people and the army.

The head of Dachan Mountain, Huang Lie, and a group of monks also turned over and rode their horses one after another.

Shang Chaozong waved his big hand, and the flag was unfolded, and a big flag was embroidered with a big word "Shang".

The men and horses went away like a long dragon, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves sounded all the way.

Passing through the streets under martial law, the people on the left and right were crowded, crowded with people, whispering and talking.

Many people are curious that there was no food or anything like that for this expedition, and there was no conscription.

In this rebellion of the Yan Kingdom, the people of Nanzhou were lucky, from beginning to end, they seemed to stay out of the matter, only talking about the war in the teahouses, restaurants, streets and alleys, and everything in agriculture and business was as usual, without the slightest interference.

Ga Miaoshui, who was dressed in a black cloak, led several eunuchs, and also swayed on horseback in the army, scanning the surroundings coldly from time to time.

When he came here, he naturally paid close attention to Nanzhou's every move, and the news fed back to him from Nanzhou made his heart heavy.

There was no food collection that made a lot of trouble, and there was no strong man who chased people around, and the people were not harassed from beginning to end, living and working in peace and contentment, and it was really like a happy land in this troubled world.

Compared with some of the sights and stories in the capital and on the way, I don't know how many wives and wives have been avoided from breaking up and ruining their families.

Ga Miaoshui sighed inexplicably in her heart.

There was also some disharmony in front of me, with wives and children crying on the side of the road, watching their relatives leave in the army.

This is a war, people will die, I don't know if my family can come back alive.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine, you see that even the princess is together, if it's really dangerous, how can the princess and her daughter go to the battlefield?"

There were people in the crowd who comforted them at the right time to avoid the infection of grief and sorrow and brewed a situation that disturbed people's hearts, and it was Lan Ruoting who arranged it in advance.

Feng Ruonan sat on horseback, his eyes lit up, and he found that feeling he hadn't seen for a long time, and couldn't help but occasionally look at Shang Chaozong who was riding beside him.

The army went out of the city, and outside the city were countless cavalry, part of the heroic and martial guards.

As soon as the men and horses left the city, the men and horses inside and outside the city converged, and the army began to gallop, all of them were cavalry, leaving a cloud of dust and smoke outside the city, and they did not carry any baggage.

Grain, grass and baggage, etc., immediately set off first when the imperial court's will arrived, and Meng Shanming planned and then moved, and everything was in order.

Most of the military rations intercepted by Nanzhou were dispersed and escorted to Dingzhou in advance.

The men and horses along the border of Nanzhou have already assembled in batches to the Dingzhou side, preparing to assemble and meet with the cavalry rushing here in a certain place in Dingzhou.

At the head of the city, Shang Shuqing and Lan Ruoting watched the army go away......

On the way, Shang Chaozong issued the first order to quell the rebellion.

Ordered to lend the Qi State to the Yan State and have not yet completely delivered the war horses to the princes, stop the transportation, and wait for the people and horses here to receive them.

At the same time, he ordered the state capitals along the way outside Nanzhou to gather a certain number of war horses, prepare the grain and grass for the army on the way, and wait for the call from here!

As soon as this military order came out, the state capitals along the way immediately cursed.

After receiving the news, the princes from all walks of life are also scolding their mothers, why intercept our things, is it a habit for Nanzhou to intercept other people's things?

But there is no way, people are now counterinsurgency generals, the first military order is not heard of, and the second is that as long as those who are not in place, you will not have the temper to stop if those who have not been sent to the position.

In order to allow Nanzhou to send troops smoothly, the three major factions behind the princes of several roads also persuaded and appeased.

In order to allow Nanzhou to send troops smoothly, the imperial court is also urging all state capitals to cooperate, so as not to make people take the opportunity to find fault and retract their bags.

As soon as the people of Nanzhou left Nanzhou and entered Dingzhou, the matter was decided, and the court of Yan finally publicly announced it to the world!

Yanjing was suddenly boiling, and a glimmer of hope seemed to emerge from the panicked heart.

"What's the noise out there?"

In an alley, a young man covered in patches and rags carried a basket into the house, and an old man on crutches, also covered with patches, asked on his back.

The young man was in high spirits and said: "Grandpa, the imperial court named the king of Nanzhou Assassin Shi Yongping County as the general of the counterinsurgency, Nanzhou has sent troops, and everyone says that there may be hope for the counterinsurgency!"

The old man leaned over and asked slowly, "Is it the son of King Ning?"

The boy nodded, "Yes, that's him!"

The old man slowly sat on the threshold against the door frame, and said with emotion: "King Ning, I think that when King Ning was still there, how could there be any rebels, they were all swept away by King Ning, no longer have to fight and collect food, everyone has a much better life, but unfortunately died early." King Ning's son is out of the mountain, and it seems that there is indeed some hope. ”

Ordinary people don't know the truth, but they are afraid that even Shang Chaozong himself did not expect that with the name of a 'son of King Ning', when the people of Yan Kingdom were panicked, they all hoped that he would not insult the prestige of King Ning.

In fact, most people don't care very much about King Ning's life or death, after all, King Ning is long gone, what he cares about is the life in front of him, when is the day of this frequent apportionment a head, and the rich and noble families are also worried that once the Yan Kingdom is defeated, the family business will not be guaranteed!

This is actually the hearts of the people, what Ning Wang Shang Jianbo left to his son is the hearts of the people!

......

In the imperial study, Tian Yu didn't dare to raise his head, only dared to quietly look at Shang Jianxiong's face.

Holding the daily report of the capital sent by the spy department, Shang Jianxiong's face was ugly, and his chest rose and fell rapidly.

The newspapers are full of all kinds of exciting remarks of the people about the Shang Dynasty's troops, and all kinds of nostalgia for King Ning.

Shang Jianxiong tore the newspaper to shreds, panting: "Diao Min! A group of Diao Min!" His face turned blue with anger, and his eyes seemed to be on fire.

......

"More than 40,000 truckloads of military rations were all sent out of Nanzhou, and they were not detained, and all of them were dedicated to war use. The Dingzhou side has counted it, and there are even replenishments, and it is full of 50,000 truckloads of military rations!"

Gong Lince, who had read the news in his hand, turned around and said to Long Xiu and Meng Xuan who were present.

The other two changed hands one after another to check the news on the paper, and they were a little surprised that they had not swallowed the military rations of the imperial court.

Meng Xuan said strangely: "Could it be that we really misunderstood him before?"

Gong Lince sneered, "What is the misunderstanding?

Long Xiu pondered for a while, and said with a little relief: "Anyway, I still know the general situation, I hope I can successfully quell the rebellion!"

PS: Feiliu went straight down 3,000 feet, suspected to be the first person on the list, thank you for the big red flower of 'Brother Cangshui', the icing on the cake!
