Chapter 1224 Distress
Even though they were snickering, the ministers still didn't dare to say anything to Le Shitong. Right Prime Minister Shui Ya didn't care, so why should they accuse Le Shitong of breaking the rules of the previous court?
After all, they were still afraid of Prime Minister Le Shitong.
Once upon a time, when they first entered the imperial court, they were only in their early twenties, and Cola Shitong was already the left prime minister and the general marshal of the army of Xiangxiang Kingdom.
Now they are half-old ladies, but Cola Shitong is still as young and gorgeous as ever, and the years have not left any wounds on her face.
Later, they learned a terrible thing. Le Shitong had been the prime minister of Xiangxiang Kingdom for five thousand years. She was like a thousand-year-old demon guarding the entire Xiangxiang Kingdom. Xiangxiang Kingdom had changed so many queens in the past twenty thousand years.
After many changes of people, Cola Shitong can firmly hold the position of Prime Minister Zuo.
It can be seen that her position in Xiangxiang Kingdom is unbreakable, so these ministers see it very clearly and understand that they should be their own officials and do not anger this thousand-year-old prime minister.
Shui Ya was slightly surprised when she saw Le Shitong standing next to her, but she still smiled and said, "Prime Minister Le, long time no see."
Le Shitong nodded and said in a calm tone: "Prime Minister Shui Ya has worked hard during the time when I am not in Xiangcheng."
"No matter what, Prime Minister Le is still working too hard on the front line guarding the border. You still need to pay attention to your health." Shui Ya said lightly.
She didn't mean this sarcastically, she was just worried about Le Shitong, because she heard it outside Linfeng Hall just now. Le Shitong came back injured last night. If Lin Tian hadn't saved her, she would probably have watched it today.
She's gone.
"Thank you, Prime Minister Shui Ya, for your concern." Le Shitong still had an indifferent expression.
Shui Ya twisted her mouth and said nothing more. This was not the first time she met Le Shitong, and she had long been accustomed to this cold personality.
"Your Majesty has arrived."
Eunuch Kui walked into the hall and made that old duck voice.
Accompanied by Shuixiang, the Queen sat on the dragon throne, and the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."
"Everyone is safe," Queen Shuixiang said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
When the ministers stood up from the ground, Queen Shuixiang saw Le Shitong standing among the civil servants at a glance. It was not that she deliberately looked at it, but Le Shitong was wearing golden armor, and Shui Xiang was wearing a white scholar uniform.
Ya was so out of place that it was difficult for her not to want to see him.
"Prime Minister Le, why are you back?" Prime Minister Shuixiang was a little surprised. He asked hurriedly: "Did Prime Minister Le defeat the army of Nan Yan Kingdom and return in triumph?"
But after Empress Shuixiang asked this question, she felt there was something wrong, because before Le Shitong returned from an expedition, she would ask the soldiers to come back first to report the good news, but this time she did not get the good news, which shows that there must be a hidden secret.
Le Shitong suddenly knelt on the ground and reported in a very sad tone: "Your Majesty, this time I led an army of 200,000 to resist the invasion of Nanyan Kingdom. After many small and large battles, I killed ten enemies in total.
Wan... Just yesterday morning, we had a large-scale decisive battle with Nan Yanguo. Just when we were about to win, the enemy's reinforcements of 500,000 suddenly arrived. They beat us beyond our reach... I, Xiangxiang Kingdom
All 120,000 heroic daughters sacrificed their lives for the country..."
The ministers were immediately surprised. Le Shitong was a victorious general of Xiangxiang Kingdom and had almost never lost a battle. He was actually defeated this time.
The most important thing is that 120,000 soldiers were sacrificed this time. They were all elite soldiers of the empire. For Xiangxiang Kingdom, the loss was really too great.
Queen Shuixiang frowned slightly. She did not expect that Le Shitong would lose the battle. She sighed and comforted: "Prime Minister Le, there is no need to be sad. Their sacrifices to defend their homeland are also valuable."
Queen Shuixiang turned her attention to Shuiya again and said: "My dear sister, do a good job in dealing with the aftermath of the sacrifice of the soldiers, and be sure to do it comprehensively."
"Imperial sister obeys the order." Shui Ya said calmly.
Queen Shuixiang looked at Le Shitong again and asked, "Prime Minister Le, I wonder how the war is going ahead?"
Le Shitong immediately said: "After yesterday's battle, our army suffered heavy casualties and lost five or six cities one after another. Now there is no force that can maneuver and attack. I had to retreat to the south with the remaining 80,000 soldiers.
Kasumigaseki..."
After Le Shitong finished his report, the ministers suddenly panicked. Nanxia Pass is a city located in the central part of Xiangxiang Kingdom. It is only 2,500 miles away from the capital Xiangcheng. If Nanxia Pass is broken, Nanyan Kingdom's army will
But it will be a long drive.
Queen Shuixiang's face was also a little ugly, but she still patted the dragon chair and said with dignity in her tone: "This is unreasonable. Nan Yanguo is really bullying others. Our court has been tolerant in every way, but I didn't expect that they would go even further. Prime Minister Le,
Do you have any strategies to deal with the enemy?"
Le Shitong nodded and said: "Your Majesty, the reason I came back this time is to ask for reinforcements. The Nanyan Kingdom's troops in the front have reached 800,000 at this time. Our 80,000 troops are not enough to resist them, and
, Your Majesty, please make a decision quickly. After all, Nanxia Pass, which is guarded by 80,000 people, will probably not be able to withstand for long when faced with 800,000 soldiers and horses."
The Queen nodded with deep understanding, and then ordered: "With Yin Henzhu, Minister of the Ministry of War, I would like all the prefectures and counties below to issue a recruitment notice, and we will recruit 300,000 troops within five days..."
"I obey the decree." Yin Henzhu, Minister of the Ministry of War, received the imperial decree and left the morning court directly. This matter was a first-class matter and she did not dare to neglect it.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the strength of 300,000 troops is not enough." Le Shitong added: "I would like to request your Majesty to transfer the imperial troops from the four major palaces to my use... In addition, when I fought with Nanyan Kingdom yesterday, I found soldiers.
There are many cultivators mixed in,
It seems that they were sent deliberately by Nanyan Kingdom. They are all ruthless characters. Ordinary soldiers are no match for them. Therefore, I would also like to ask Your Majesty to ask Taishi Wen for help and ask her to issue an order to let the monks of the Red Sect.
Also take part in this battle."
This battle is related to the life and death of the Xiangxiang Kingdom, and there is no room for loss. Le Shitong will never allow other countries to occupy the Xiangxiang Kingdom. Even if they use all the country's troops, they must defend the territory of the Xiangxiang Kingdom.
But Queen Shuixiang hesitated. Le Shitong's two requests were really difficult.
Le Shitong's proposal made many ministers criticize, but no one dared to stand up and say a word, so they could only discuss it among themselves in low voices.
Lin Tian also tilted his mouth in displeasure, took a step forward, and said, "Your Majesty, there will be a final announcement."
"General Lin, what do you want to report?" When Queen Shuixiang was also in trouble, she seemed to sense that Lin Tian wanted to help her and said hurriedly. (To be continued...)
