Early the next morning, the snow had stopped.
When Yu Fu woke up, she felt refreshed, as if she had a telepathy, she knew that Gu Shubai had fought a good battle.
Just as he was about to urge people to check the situation, he saw Yao Lan walking in from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, there is a wooden box outside the palace, which was picked up by the little maids. I don't know who put it there, but it is quite delicate."
Yu Fu asked casually: "What is it?"
Yao Lan opened it and took a look, "Hey, it's a wooden doll, it looks a bit like His Majesty's."
She took the doll out of the box in amazement, but the palm-sized small wood carving was very delicate, comparing it with Yufu's face, the more she looked at it, the more she felt it resembled it.
"show me."
Yu Fu couldn't help being curious when he heard the words, sitting on the bed and reaching out to her, Yao Lan handed the wooden doll to her, "Your Majesty, see for yourself, does it look like it?"
It's a bit like.
Yufu was playing with the little doll, the doll was wearing a Beili palace dress, with wide sleeves, gorgeous and beautiful, her hair style was the same as Yufu's usual comb, and the hair was carved very finely and nimbly.
Looking at the expression on the doll's face, which was mixed with anger, Yu Fu couldn't help being curious, "Do I often make this expression?"
Yao Lan shook her head, "No, His Majesty usually smiles slightly, and there is also a dimple. There is an angry expression engraved on it, and His Majesty's dimple can't be seen."
"There are still."
Yu Fu took a closer look at the doll's cheeks, the dimples were slightly sunken, and the whole face had a very lively expression, which couldn't be carved without seeing her in person.
She recalled when she had made such an angry expression after returning to Beili, and she had a vague idea in her heart.
"Who was here last night?"
Yao Lan tilted her head and thought for a while, "Your Majesty held a palace banquet last night, and ordered the ministers to disperse and go home for a reunion very early. Oh, yes, I heard that Tian Taishi came, but he just passed the door and didn't enter. So the palace people No communication."
Yu Fu nodded slightly, looked at the fine wood carving in his hand and couldn't help but smile, it took so much effort to carve this thing, it was really hard for him.
"Put it away, don't break it."
In a few days, a beautiful victory outside Lin'an City on New Year's Eve was reported back to the capital, and the court and central government were full of praise.
"Yin Shuo thought that colluding with Xikun and attacking the west would make us lose our priority. He was really underestimating General Gu. I heard that the Hubu Shangshu who was in charge of the grain and grass in Lin'an City had been beheaded in the name of colluding with foreign enemies. As for the grain and grass, It has also been sent to General Gu’s army.”
Yu Fu put the report aside, looked up at the ministers, "Your lords, what you mean is that Yin Shuo colluded with Xi Kun to attack the west, and bribed Dong Ling, the minister of the household department, to deliberately not give us food and grass. Is that what you mean? ?”
Thinking about it in the past, it was naturally like this, otherwise, how could Xikun send troops at such a good time, why did the courtiers of Dongling agree to sell grain, and then delay the delivery of grain and grass
Bao Taifu said: "What's your majesty's idea?"
Yu Fu thought for a moment, "Xikun has already found out that it was Emperor Kun's will to attack Weizhou this time. As for who was instigated by Emperor Kun, it is not clear, and it can be concluded that Yin Shuo cannot escape. As for grain and grass This matter... How did Yin Shuo know that we bought food from Lin'an City?"
"Yin Shuo used to be the prime minister in the Dongling dynasty, and later the chief assistant. He has a wide network of contacts in the court. It's not surprising to say that he has some contacts who know these secrets."
There is nothing wrong with this explanation, but Yu Fu always feels weird in his heart, as if something went wrong.
What went wrong
Zhang Jiuque said: "Fortunately, General Gu secretly mobilized his people to collect food and grass among the common people. This will not delay the soldiers in the army, but also paralyze the enemy. If we wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop, I am afraid that the morale of the rebel army will fall to the bottom and they will not be able to fight again." gone."
When Kun Yuyang was transferred to Weizhou to fight against the Xikun army, the people of Xikun would not dare to act rashly because they thought she was the princess of Xikun, but Kun Yuyang knew the military strength and personnel of Xikun best, so he had an absolute advantage in the confrontation.
Gu Shubai also transferred Gu Jiuge, who was guarding the border of Beili, to guard Zhenjiang and other places, and at the same time ordered him to be responsible for collecting food and grass among the people. Only his identity as the second son of the Gu family could convince the people so much.
Don't be chaotic in times of danger, don't panic when things change, all arrangements are in order, and the limited troops and manpower are used to the greatest advantage.
This time, even Tian Yunpo couldn't help admiring him.
…
After the first battle on New Year's Eve, the rebel army was really panicked and had no fighting spirit.
Yin Shuo led his army back for 30 li, directly abandoned Huzhou City, and defended the river according to the danger. The crisis in Lin'an City was completely resolved.
Gu Shubai's lieutenant generals were very excited, but he himself did not appear to be happy.
"Is the general unhappy? The rebel army has retreated, and the crisis in Lin'an has been resolved. We can also breathe a sigh of relief."
Joy is often overwhelming.
Gu Shubai was not satisfied with Yan Zheng's words, "It is the rebels who need to breathe a sigh of relief, not us."
Yan Zheng was taken aback, Chi Fei had already started laughing, and Yan Zheng hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, we are the victor, why loose? Let them take the opportunity to run back. It is not us who are separated by a river. strengths."
The rivers in the south of the Yangtze River are dense, and although Beili's soldiers are brave, their biggest weakness lies in water warfare.
Gu Shubai nodded and said, "You've got the point, but it's not so much that Yin Shuo took advantage of the opportunity to run away, it's better to say that he's retreating to advance. Knowing that Lin'an can't be attacked, he simply retreated and defended against the river. Instead, we There is nothing he can do for a while. And once the rebel army retreats, the conflict will no longer be between our two armies.”
"Conflict?" Chi Fei wondered, "Conflict is no longer our two armies, what is it?"
"a lot of."
Gu Shubai said indifferently: "For example, Emperor Ning's suspicion. Once he thinks that the crisis of the rebel army is resolved, he will regard us as his crisis. Another example is Xikun's invasion. Yu Yang lacks experience, and I am afraid that he will not be able to support it in the long run. live."
As soon as the voice fell, the voice of the soldiers' announcement came from outside the tent.
"Enter."
The soldiers entered the account and said: "General, Emperor Ning's order came from Lin'an City, asking when the general will leave the camp? He said that if the general has nothing to do, he should lead the army to leave as soon as possible, so as not to panic the people of Lin'an."
Said Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.
Chi Fei has been subjected to such suspicions, and now he has no more respect for Ning Chengzhi, "Whether it is the people of Lin'an who are panicking, or Emperor Ning is panicking, everyone knows. General, let's stop being annoying here. According to you As I said just now, are we heading to Weizhou to support General Kun?"
Gu Shubai smiled and shook his head, as if thinking of something happy.
"The soldiers have been away from home for a long time, and it's time to go back. We will lead the army back to the court and return to the court, and the court will discuss the next expedition."
"Going back?!"
Yan Zheng was so happy that he almost jumped up, Chi Fei looked at him inexplicably, wondering why he was so happy, "Are you in a hurry to go back and marry a wife?"
"Pooh!"
Yan Zheng pushed him, "It's not me who is in a hurry, it's our general who is in a hurry!"
