Chapter 768 Send Troops

The chamberlain quickly stopped him, "Your Majesty, it's already late at night, and you're still sick. You can't go out to enjoy the breeze."

"It's very stuffy in this palace. It's summer, not winter. The sun has been shining for seventy-three consecutive days. Even if I expose my chest and belly, I won't catch the cold!" The emperor pushed away the chamberlain and said, "Get away. , I don’t want to see you.”

It was hot and muggy outside the palace, but the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, so it was clear that there was no intention of raining.

Liu Yuan felt even more upset. If he continued like this, before Zhao Hanzhang and Jin Ting could call, they would be in chaos themselves.

Will his great dynasty and his great ambitions stop here?

Liu Yuan's heart was ups and downs, and he breathed heavily. His already dizzy mind became more and more dizzy. He was afraid that people would say that he was a rebellious minister and a traitor, and his name was not justified, so he used the name of the Han Dynasty to be called the emperor. As long as he could destroy the Jin Dynasty and unify If the world is peaceful for a lifetime, these slanders will disappear.

But now... God bless him!

Liu Yuan sat on the railing in front of the palace in a daze, while the chamberlain who followed him from a distance was anxious.

Liu Yuan was getting older, and in the past two years he had indulged in sensuality, which made his health worse and worse. Not long ago, due to the continuous drought in Bingzhou and rebellion by rebels in some counties, he fell ill in a hurry.

Liu Yuan felt that it was okay to go out for a breeze late at night, but the waiter knew that if he worsened his condition, the people who served him would not have to live.

The chamberlain thought hard, and finally gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. He still let people stare at the emperor, and he secretly ran to see Empress Shan.

By the time Empress Shan got dressed and rushed over, several people were already kneeling in front of the palace, and one of them was Liu Cong.

Empress Shan came in a hurry, her hair slightly disheveled. She hesitated for a moment but did not come forward. She stood at the corner with her men and asked the maid next to her to persuade the emperor to go back to the house.

The maid took the order and left. After a while, the emperor held the hand of the chamberlain and returned to the house. Empress Shan breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the chamberlain, "Quickly go and invite the chamberlain."

The waiter left in response.

Empress Shan glanced towards the entrance of the palace again and saw that the emperor and several ministers had already entered the room. Liu Cong, who was about to enter the room, paused and stared at her with bright eyes.

Queen Shan was startled by his gaze, frowned slightly, avoided his gaze, turned and left.

The maid next to the queen also felt that Liu Cong's gaze was too offensive and said: "Your Highness, King Luli is too offensive. He dares to look directly at His Highness."

The maid suggested that Queen Shan go to the emperor to make the decision.

Empress Shan frowned and said, "Your Majesty is worried about the drought, so you'd better not bother him with these things. Just let Yi'er be careful about him."

The maid bowed her head and responded.

Liu Yuan sat down and frowned at the ministers, "Dongfang Weibai, why are you ladies entering the palace at this time?"

Liu Huanhuan lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, I have just received a military report that there are rebels in the rear."

The emperor held his forehead and said, "Aren't there rebels in all the ministries?"

"But this time the leader was Yi Jiehu. He was a general in the army and his name was Yin An. Most of the people who rebelled this time were Jiehu, and only 30% were Han people. I heard that they contacted Shi Le and wanted to Bring our cattle and sheep to the Shangdang," Liu Huanhuan said solemnly, "Your Majesty, you have to be careful about Shi Le. If he hadn't given him the promise, how could Yin An dare to rebel? I think Shi Le is also disobedient. heart of."

There are many people who have the same idea as Liu Huanxi. They said: "Wang Jun and Liu Kun conspired to attack Qingzhou before, and Zu Ti attacked our territory in Jizhou. He could help with a wave of his hand, but he waited for Zu Ti to capture several cities. He only took action after threatening the place he managed, so that now Zu Ti is in power and has occupied a county."

"Your Majesty, there is a saying among the Han people that is very good. People who are not of my race must have different hearts. In the final analysis, Shi Le and we are not of the same mind. He is Jiehu, so how can he sincerely listen to us?"

Liu Yuan was having a fever and didn't want to speak at this time. He asked tiredly: "What do you want?"

Liu Cong took a step forward and said, "I would like to ask you to send troops to attack Yanzhou."

Liu Yuan became more energetic, put down his hands and sat up, "Attack Yanzhou?"

"Yes, Father, the summer harvest has ended now. Because of the drought, many people cannot pay the summer taxes, so there are many people rebelling. But looking at the situation, the autumn harvest may be even more bleak. Rather than letting those unruly people cause chaos for us, we should Take them to the battlefield. If there is no harvest in the summer harvest, we can go and rob them. If the cattle and sheep are dying of thirst and heat, we can also go and rob them!"

Liu Cong said: "Even Shi Le's danger can be solved by sending troops to attack Luoyang, attract Zhao Hanzhang's troops away, and let them be consumed on the battlefield. After this battle, let alone Shi Le, there will be no more strength to rebel. Zhao Hanzhang will never threaten us again."

Liu Yuan clenched his fingers and asked, "What if we lose this battle?"

Liu Cong said: "We don't care about winning or losing. Our purpose is to go to the Central Plains to grab money and food to survive the natural disaster. When the time comes we..."

"No," Liu Yuan interrupted him, raised his head and looked at him, and said with piercing eyes, "We want to win this battle!"

He said: "Use the power of the whole country to destroy the Jin Dynasty. From now on, the entire Central Plains will belong to us. We no longer have to be afraid of droughts, floods, and locust plagues. Gold, silver, treasures, high houses, glazed glass, and beauties, you can have whatever you want." have what!"

The words made everyone's blood boil. Even an old guy like Liu Huanhua couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and the determination to win flashed in his cloudy eyes.

Liu Yuan stood up, clenched his fists and said, "It has been four years since the founding of the Han Dynasty. It is time to unify the world."

He said: "The drought had an impact on Bingzhou, but it had a greater impact on the Jin State. This time, Wang Jun and Liu Kun had too much time to take care of themselves, Gou Xi and Zhao Hanzhang had a rift, and even there was suspicion between the emperor and Gou Xi. We sent troops , the weather, the right location, the right people, this drought is God’s help for me, we must win the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop!”

Liu Huanhua took the lead and knelt down, and said "yes" excitedly, and said loudly: "We will live up to your Majesty's expectations, attack Yuncheng, capture the Jin Emperor alive, and wish your Majesty a happy birthday!"

"Okay!" Liu Yuan's breathing quickened, and he stared at Liu Cong with red eyes and said, "Confer Liu Cong the title of General of the Southern Conquest, and immediately order troops to send to Yanzhou."

He added: "Order Shi Le as the General of the Conquest of the West, and ask him to send troops to attack Luoyang. All Sizhou occupied by Zhao Hanzhang must be recovered. Order Liu Qin as the General of the Conquest of the North, to recover Jinyang."

His eyes were cold and he said: "Liu Kun's persistence in Jinyang is a thorn in my heart. I won't feel comfortable if I don't pull it out!"

He had tolerated Liu Kun for a long time.

The Xiongnu were warlike, and Liu Yuan's order was given. All ministries immediately began to prepare. Even the rebels who were causing trouble immediately stopped fighting with the imperial army when they heard that they were going to fight in the Central Plains. They turned around and packed up their weapons and armor, leading Mount your horse and join the army.

The Huns did not mind that they had just fought with them not long ago, so they collected the people and put them in the vanguard, and then let them charge first.

Only a small number of people are still insisting. Most of them are Han people and do not want to go south to attack the Central Plains. They just want to live. It is best if the Han Dynasty is destroyed. If it is not destroyed, at least this year's taxes will be reduced so that they can live. Otherwise, It's okay to give them some food and let them go.

Some of them wanted to go to Jinyang to join Liu Kun, while others wanted to go to Sizhou to join Zhao Hanzhang.

However, these forces are very small and scattered, and no one takes them seriously. When the large army moves out, the remaining rebel garrison can put down the rebellion. If the people are caught then, they will either be locked up as slaves or sent to the front line to fill the gap. The bows and arrows of the Jin army.
