Chapter 736 Dusk (2/2)
”You're not bad, and the Minister of War is also not bad” The Northern Qi Emperor looked into Wei Hua's eyes ”If, at this tishan, I would probably behead you two as well When the country is about to fall, I don't keep useless people or leisurely people”
Wei Hua's body trehtly Only now did he know that the Eshan a long tio That hy he could face the tense situation at hand so calmly However, with this, who in the entire Northern Qi court would suspect Shang Shanhu far away in the South? If Shang Shanhu really had other thoughts…
”Do you kno to go to war?” the Northern Qi E about military matters”
”Neither do I Since it is so, such matters as warShanhu, I will continue to use him without doubt,” the Emperor calmly said ”From today onward, all military and civilian iven to General Shangshan to deal with Gather the strength of the court and aid the general in opposing the enemy Send the order down in a bit”
For some reason, Wei Hua stared in a daze, and so Einal sense of fear became unusually calm and determined He knelt on one knee and replied, directly and efficiently, ”I accept the order!”
Wei Hua left the Royal Palace Who knehat kind of dangerous situation this edict of the Eave one-third of the power of the Northern Qi court co Shanhu, would attract? The Northern Qi Emperor, who had just issued this edict, was unusually calht snow outside and did not feel a sliver of fear
Everyone in the world was afraid of the Qing th, but the Northern Qi E Shanhu Further Shanhu and to use him more absolutely than any other ruler
More ih he didn't understand reat battle between the two countries was, in the end, a co as the Northern Qi court did notthe invaders from the South were, they could not destroy Northern Qi within a fewneeded ti while the powerful ruler in the South was already old The Northern Qi E Emperor did not want to waste too htly There was still a question he couldn't resolve in his heart If the Qing Emperor really didn't want to waste ti-winded? Was the Qing Eyi? Or, was he worried about soht?
The beaded curtaina floral coat walked out froer The eer looked warmly at the Northern Qi Erew involuntarily in her heart With such a son, or perhaps to say, to have such a daughter, what else was there to wish for?
The Northern Qi E the floral coat He sht back celestial troops and generals from the Te slowly shook her head and didn't say anything She wondered what the Emperor would be like if he knew the support he most wanted to obtain in his lifeti
”I reed to them and to us When all was said and done, it is ours” The Northern Qi E Suddenly, he calmly said, ”I never knehere his confidence caerous situation frorasp this kind of feeling”
Haitang Duoduo was silent for a nan, he also said we are the sun at six or seven in thesun” The Northern Qi Ehtly It was as if even he didn't believe this judgment Most of the calm in his expression was actually faked He didn't know if pulling together the strength of the country along with Shang Shanhu's control were enough to te the world NoShanhu was on the battlefield, he was only a single er, who had hed and said, ”Looks like the dying sun that I ahter came out from the oppressive Northern Qi Royal Palace The Northern Qi E and was silent for aDoufan”
…
…
In Jingdou's Royal Palace, a dying sun hung in the western sky The weather was still warainst the cinnabar red of the palace walls and glazed bright yellow tiles until it seedo chair in front of Taiji Palace His fingers slowly brushed through the fur of a large and fat white cat The fat cat see the service of a powerful ruler and laid there lazily, occasionally turning around to ertips
Naturally, this fat cat did not kno terrifying the Eeneral stood silently in the dusk, very close to the Ele word He just looked at the white cat beneath the Emperor's hand and the two fat cats behind the wooden chair that were presently stretching themselves out He couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity
These three cats were respectively yellow, black, and white They all had been feed to be unusually fat However, the Palace rarely kept such pets, so no one kne these seely normal cats won the Emperor's affection
Not a sliver of his eeneral's face Even if a 2-year-old infant died in front of hie Furtherht Before he returned to the capital and entered the Palace, he had found sufficient infored to the Fan manor Princess Chen had raised theht into the Royal Palace by Princess Chen to play with the Emperor He had kept the three cats until now
It seeeneral, they see He didn't dare to ask and had nowhere to ask because no one in the world knew if that person was already dead or still alive and well
The Elanced at the general ”The little guy in Northern Qi is just putting on a show for you all Are all these people the court keeps in the Bureau of Military Affairs incoeneral was because his eyes were clear and cold, see, but his face was quite weathered After thinking a htforwardly said, ”In the battlefield, eneh extraordinary strategies No ives the order, the three arive their lives and certainly not disappoint your expectations As for thethe troops, Your Majesty can make the decision alone There is no need for the Bureau of Military Affairs to do s”
These words were not flattery The officials who flattered would certainly not say such ugly sounding things This general truly believed in the Ehed in adain, and wishes to retreat to Nanjing to exchange distance for time That kind wants to waste time with me” A disdainful s Shanhu is caught in the center It's truly a wise decision However, with the present situation as so, once this one nail is pulled out, who can stopNorth?”
”The North needs a commander” The Emperor closed his eyes and allowed the bloody color of dusk to envelop his slender face ”wang Zhikun has been kept for dozens of years and has beco Shanhu, we h I have issued no edict, Governor wang is clearly terrified of the 4,000 black knights and my eldest son's 10,000 odd soldiers With his hands so tied, how can he do anything?”
Ieneral He furrowed his brows slightly and said, ”You just returned frorasslands and you know little of the ue with your father, as his son what a scandal!”
Not sure why the topic of conversation turned in this direction, the general felt his heart chill He lowered his head in acquiescence
The Emperor stared at his face and slowly said, ”Don't have hopes that I will send you North to extract the nail You don't have enough experience Although you have honed your ruthlessness going in and out of the grasslands, you still have not learned cunning and patience You are not a eneral raised his head abruptly A glimmer of dissatisfaction appeared on his face
”Ye Wan, you're too inexperienced,” the Erasslands are not as cunning as the people in the central plain Your courage in entering deep into the grasslands to pursue the Chief's court deserves to be praised, but have you thought about why the 7,000 Man Iron Riders still have no way ofcontact with the Chief's court? If the court united with the Man riders on the ice and snowy grasslands, do you think you could still escape back alive?”
This young general was a rising star in the Qing court, the son of the Head of the Bureau Of Military Affairs, Ye Zhong, the cozhou, Ye Wan After the battle of Qingzhou, Ye Wan led 4,000 Qing elite Iron Riders in pursuit of the rerasslands court and rasslands He had returned alive froh there were only 800 people left of the 4,000 Iron Riders, such level of achievest any of the Qing Kingdoht words right now hit on soeneral's heart and woke up a faint suspicion in Ye Wan's heart Why had Chief Su Bida's re soldiers not been able to erous pursuit?
Ye Wan's heart tre face in search of an answer
”Although Fan Xian had taken Haitang Duoduo to the Terasslands,” the Emperor said with an indifferent expression ”Effort is spent outside of writing poetry Victory and defeat are decided outside of the battlefield Whenever you understand this, the commander of the Northern Expedition will be you”
Ye Wan stood silently by the Emperor's side with a heavy mood
”The victory and defeat of the world are actually outside of the battlefield If Fan Xian dies within a year, I will naturally have won If I die, everyone who does like me will naturally have won”
