Chapter 1002 (1/2)
The third year of Jingming.
Dozens of quick riders, from the West.
The flag is on the back of the horse. All the people who see the flag, whether they are vehicles or pedestrians, avoid it.
Passing by the toll station along the way, whenever you see a big ”soldier” written on the wall, you must shout, ”there is an urgent report! Change men and horses
It only takes one incense stick. The soldiers of the command station built by the toll station carry their bags, take over the flag and sealed letter box, mount the horses fed by the station and continue to move forward.
It's like a relay race. It's going to be passed from one station to another.
He ran to death, even killed people, but never delayed the transmission of military information.
It's not a joke to rush eight hundred miles.
Even if you can't run eight hundred miles a day, there are still six or seven hundred miles.
It's summer, the sun is baking the earth.
The commercial road is unobstructed, and the closer it is to the capital, the more chariots and pedestrians there are.
The toll station received early news and began to evacuate the vehicles and pedestrians blocking the intersection.
”Let's go, let's all let's go. Get out of the way. ”
As soon as you ride by, you can see a hot wind and dust.
”Where did you come from, so domineering?” There are complaints.
”Hush! Don't you see the flag on the horse's back? It's the most urgent military information for 800 Li. If pedestrians, chariots and horses do not yield, they will die in vain if they are trampled to death. ”
”No war, no military information.”
”Who said there was no war. The northwest army has been fighting with Xiliang. I don't know.”
”Still fighting! I thought it was finished. The point is that we can't feel the atmosphere of war at all along the way. ”
”It's been playing all the time. You can read more newspapers. There will be reports in the newspapers from time to time.”
”Isn't the imperial court against fighting like this? How much money does it cost to fight? ”
”It is useless for the courtiers to oppose it. Your majesty is determined to fight. As long as the corvee taxes are not increased, it doesn't matter to us ordinary people whether we fight or not. ”
”So it is. If the court has money and the emperor loves to fight, then fight. Just don't apportion it to our common people. ”
Ride all the way to the East. The capital is in sight.
The crowded and slow official road, because of the arrival of 800 Li fast riding, all the way flying, car accidents followed.
Into the city, into the palace!
The northwest army killed the king of Xiliang and destroyed the kingdom of Xiliang.
The news shocked the whole world!
”Really destroyed the Xiliang kingdom?”
”The Marquis Lu is now unsealed and can not be rewarded.”
”What a contribution to the war of extermination of the state is equal to opening up territory for the great Zhou Dynasty. In the Taizu society, at least he is a hereditary Duke. ”
”Your Majesty is confused! How can we sit back and watch Lu Hou fight the war of destroying the country. Now the court is embarrassed! ”
”Your Majesty is so confused! Instead of restricting the northwest army, the northwest army paid out money and grain for weapons, so that the northwest army could defeat Xiliang. I would like to see how your majesty can deal with the aftermath. ”
”What does the governor's office do in Northwest China? Why didn't the imperial court get any information about such an important matter?”
”In the urgent military situation of 800 Li, does it say when Lu Hou destroyed Xiliang? What is the situation in Xiliang now? Are the luhou people in the northwest or Xiliang now
”Why has no one reported the situation in the northwest. What are the officials in Jinzhou doing? Have you been bribed by the northwest army and cheated the imperial court
”It's no use saying that now. Send someone to the northwest to inquire for information. It's a matter of great and minor importance. We must inquire into it clearly. ”
”There are also many officials from Northwest China. Why didn't they get any information before?”
”Now it seems that someone has deliberately blocked the northwest, including the news of the northwest army.”
”So northwest, who can block the news?”
”Who else but the two in the palace?”
”Where did this come from. What good is it for the Empress Dowager to block the news of the northwest? ”
”You may as well continue to look at it. When you see the end of a big play, the truth should always be revealed. ”
The northwest army destroyed Xiliang state and quickly made the front page headlines of major newspapers and magazines.
The ordinary people in the city were elated.
”The ambition of the wolf in Xiliang was finally destroyed.”
”In the past, we were bullied by others, but now we are bullying others.”
Puff up, absolutely.
For many years, the northwest frontier defense has always been a defensive defense, but it can not shrink out. Occasionally, there are one or two victories, but it is not enough to control the war situation.
It's hard to think about it.
And now, at last, Zhou took the initiative to destroy a country.
As for the relationship between the northwest army and the imperial court, the ordinary people in the city did not care.
Everyone is happy, decorated with lanterns, set off firecrackers and fireworks to celebrate.
Compared with Xiaomin's elation, everyone has a dignified face in the court.In the great court meeting, many courtiers, the big men of the three provinces and six departments of the Qi and Qi dynasties, were in trouble with Liu Zhao, Emperor Jingming.
Such a big thing, if the big man of the three provinces and six ministries didn't know it, he would not believe it.
There are so many supplies and weapons, along the way, the establishment of military stations, fortresses, Shaofu, the Ministry of war, the Ministry of works, the Ministry of housing, all of which are inseparable from each other.
As for the Ministry of officials, the Ministry of rites and the Department of punishment, the three stepmothers should not want to stay out of the way.
You are a group of disorderly officials and thieves. It's hard for you to hide from us!
At the beginning of the great court meeting, Jinluan hall was fried.
No one talks about the northwest army, no one talks about Lu Hou.
