Chapter 115: Go to war

People in this era paid great attention to grief and glory behind them. The monarch of a country even wanted to build a large-scale and extravagant earth palace, and chose various beautiful vessels and even burials with servants. Naturally, such a major project cannot be completed in a short time.
In fact, the emperor's tomb of Jing Yaodi began construction before his death, and it was not officially completed until last year.
However, because Qin Cong ’s ascent to the throne was too short and he had to crash, the ground palace has not been completed yet. Although the coffin has been incorporated, the surrounding buildings are still being perfected.
However, Queen Mother Huo did not want to aggrieved her son. He had to ask about the progress of Qin Cong's sleeping tombs every so often, and put forward many requirements, and must be perfect.
Fortunately, the current royal family is very rich, and Qin Nuo has mostly complied with her requirements. For unreasonable requirements, for example, the front steps of the palace must be covered with good jade crystals, just like Jingyao ’s palace. Just a headache.
Jing Yaodi ’s crystal palace was an old pit in the south before, and he happened to have discovered a huge crystal stone. The color was perfect and was arranged by Jing Yaodi in his own tomb. That's not enough.
Qin Cong ’s underground palace also wanted to be decorated this way, where to find such neat and consistent fine spar and jade for a while.
Queen Mother Huo has requested that the work be completed within three months, otherwise the trouble of the Ministry of Industry will be sought. The Ministry of Industry was bitter, and Qin Nuo was annoyed with a headache, which happened to be a new product of glazing.
This kind of glazed tile is not worth anything to modern people, but Qin Nuo guarantees that it will be more expensive than ordinary crystal stones after being listed. Using this to make the ground is definitely more beautiful than Jing Yaodi's tomb. This is what makes Mother Huo satisfied.
Therefore, since the Gewu Division made this object, the first task was to continuously fire 3,800 pieces of glazed glass and send it to the underground palace. Part of it is used in the emperor's palace of Jing Yao embellishment, and part of it is used by Qin Cong's palace.
In order to prevent this material from flowing out, there were not many, many at one time.
After listening to Qin Nuo's narration, Huo Youjuan suddenly lost sight.
"Did someone steal it ..." Tomb stealing was a sinful crime in ancient times. It was more serious than killing and setting fire, and stealing the emperor's tomb could be tantamount to rebellion.
Qin Nuo smiled bitterly: "Maybe some artisans are greedy for money, secretly get some from the corner."
Huo Youjuan thought for a while and whispered: "It's better not to let Cining Palace know."
Qin Nuo agreed. If Queen Mother Huo is aware of this, it is very likely that something will happen.
In fact, in terms of his three views, the imperial mausoleum was built so magnificently as a waste. But this is the case all the time.
He called to Dongbo and ordered him to conduct an undercover investigation of Qianlinsi.
If one of the craftsmen who built the imperial mausoleum steals a piece or two because of the poor, there is no need to speak up. If it is a large-scale theft, scrutinize it further.
A trivial matter has since been revealed.
What Qin Nuo is experiencing headaches now is the question of the candidates to conquer Nan Chen.
The three armies did not move ahead. After finalizing the expedition of Nanchen in the spring this year, the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Family Affairs have taken action. This time, it is not a trivial matter, but a decisive battle to destroy Nanchen in one fell swoop.
Although the Southern Army has 200,000 people, a large part of it is scattered throughout the Southern Dynasties. Especially in the past two years, the Southern Dynasties rebelled one after another, and the Southern Army was really tired. Therefore, not only the Southern Army was dispatched during the expedition, but the court also discussed the need to deploy about 100,000 elite soldiers from the Chinese Army to form the peak of Mount Tai. Be sure to succeed in the first battle without leaving future troubles.
Without that little court, presumably those insurgents had lost their backbone and could have stopped.
Which army should be transferred? With Qin Nuo's heart, he wanted to adjust the Perak camp. However, officials led by the Ministry of Defense tended to mobilize the Shenbing Battalion, and then backed by Pingxi Battalion.
The diversion barracks is adjusted because it is the only army in the Five Guards that has not visited the frontier battlefield. Both the Pidong camp and the Perak camp have been to the northern Xinjiang, while the sacred camp and the western camp have participated in the battle of Chen Chen.
The adjustment of Pingxiying was taken into account that Cui Ye had served in Zhennan General House before, and it was convenient to cooperate with the Southern Army.
Qin Nuo pondered for a long time and put down the memorial for the time being, anyway, to discuss with the courtiers tomorrow.
On the bed, Qin Nuo quickly entered his dream.
I didn't know how long it had been before, I was groggy and suddenly awakened by a call.
This is the second time Qin Nuo has been awakened from his sleep after he entered the Qianyuan Hall. Opening his eyes, he looked at Li Wan anxiously standing in front of the bed.
"What's wrong?" Qin Nuo chuckled in his heart, and quickly got up. There will be no civil change again? These days Beijing is quite stable.
Li Wan said in a hurry: "Front-line military affairs came from the front line. Just now Fan Xixiang and Huo Shangshu entered the DPRK and asked the emperor to drive."
Qin Nuo immediately got out of bed and hurried to the Palace of Government.
Sure enough, Huo Donglai was all there, one by one with complicated expressions. They were not as anxious as the folks were last time, but there was another kind of anxiety.
Seeing Qin Nuo coming in, Huo Donglai hurriedly reported: "Emperor, Nan Chen's front line is at war."
Qin Nuo froze, wasn't he ready to start next month? Why did you send troops so soon? Is General Zhennan acting without permission?
He hurriedly received the report of the war, swept across in a row, with an expression that was hard to say.
The front line of Nanchen has indeed begun! In addition, it was Nanchen who preemptively attacked the 30,000 elite soldiers from the territory of Uli and defeated the defense line of Suizhou in one fell swoop. After that, it was like a bamboo shoot. Within three days, Yunzhou and Lingwu counties were recovered.
Qin Nuo glanced over the date. The battle report was issued by Zhennan General House seven days ago, and Zhennan General House wrote the situation four days ago, that is, more than ten days have passed since the incident occurred.
You can regain the land of the two counties in three days. Then, in these ten days, isn't it ...
"Don't worry about the emperor. According to a detailed report, the two counties fell so quickly because Nan Chen Neiying among them opened the gate secretly."
The two counties were originally under the control of Emperor Nan Chen, and were not captured by the Southern Army until the last two or three years. It is no surprise that those who have the heart to Nan Chen.
However, there are also several counties in the same situation, all of which were conquered by Nan Chen ten years ago and were not immediately laid down. They were controlled by the Emperor Nan Chen, and they did not eat one by one in recent years.
Regarding Qin Nuo's question, Huo Donglai didn't dare to guarantee anything. Yunzhou and Lingwu counties fell so easily, so Guangyi and Luan Island in the same situation were afraid of hanging.
"How could Nan Chen attack first?" Qin Nuo put anxiety on the front line and asked.
"This ... Maybe I received a message that the southern army is frequently mobilized, knowing that I am about to send troops, thinking of preemption."
This once again poked Qin Nuo's upset. Da Zhou and Nan Chen confronted each other. Many spies lurked between the two countries, but Da Zhou lurked in Nan Chen's intelligence network. With the collapse of Nan Chen, most of them have retired and followed the last emperor Chen Kun to escape to the southernmost. Little is rare, so after the fall of Nan Chen, Da Zhou's intelligence network in Nan Chen was almost completely obsolete.
On the contrary, Nan Chen's intelligence network in Da Zhou, despite repeated cleaning and waning, still maintained a fixed pattern. Of course, some are not in good shape, out of control and hidden, but more people are pregnant with their homeland and are still active.
In recent years, the Nanchen Cantonese Party has been a hard bone, and the Ministry of Defense has begun to plant spies in its remnants. However, most of the followers who ran to the poisonous land of the poor and remote areas were the diehards and the spies. Slowly, it's even worse when Nan Chen retreats to Uli territory! In the barbarous land of Uli Kingdom, even the words are incomprehensible. Da Zhou had never been associated with him before.
Therefore, Da Zhou's intelligence system in Nanchen was far behind.
Qin Nuo set aside the memorial, unhappy,
"The emperor, the southern army has been urgently transferred, please send troops to reinforce immediately. You can first deploy a southward from the Chinese army to show the determination of the imperial court, at the same time, the load of grain and grass quickly moved south, and then the southern army will levy a part ...
The courtiers quickly discussed the situation.
Qin Nuoluo thought for a moment, nodded in agreement with the previous plan, and sent a battalion to send reinforcements to the front line.
The entire early dynasty revolved around Nan Chen's war.
The distance between the two sides is too far away, and the transmission of information is slow.
Qin Nuo couldn't help but miss the advanced communication tools of the previous life. In this era, technology is limited, and those things are impossible, but the pigeons should be able to develop? At least it is more efficient than fast horse Mercedes Benz messaging.
Let's try the previous project of Gewusi tomorrow. However, there is also a disadvantage to the delivery of carrier pigeons, that is, the confidentiality may not be enough. In the event that someone is shot ... well, it will need the matching password and secret words.
The early dynasty continued until noon. Because Nan Chen was the first to fight, the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Defense caught off guard, and many of the original plans had to be readjusted. Fortunately, the preparations for the grass and soldiers were almost the same, and everyone was busy.
After leaving the court, Qin Nuo walked in the Royal Garden for a while, and suddenly couldn't help asking: "What kind of person is Chen Ye?"
Fang Yuan next to him trembled and didn't answer.
"Have you seen him?" Qin Nuo didn't want to let him go so easily.
Fang Yuan bowed his head: "Have seen it."
"Really as beautiful as the legend?" Qin Nuo was curious.
I didn't expect that the emperor's first problem was this problem. Fang Yuan was silent for a moment and replied: "It's really elegant."
"So compared to 朕?" Qin Nuo laughed.
Why are you so entangled in this question? ? ? Fang Yuan stopped talking.
This can also be regarded as some form of "don't ask Cangsheng and ask ghosts and gods", Qin Nuo laughed and no longer tangled with this question.
"Oh, in fact, I don't want to fight with Nan Chen. If they are willing to claim the king in Uli, they can be a friend in the future."
This battle may last a long time, but the battle with Nan Chen has been going on for more than ten years, and it is normal to fight another three or five years.
In the next few days, bad news came continuously.
The situation in Nan Chen turned out to be worse than Qin Nuo's imagination.
The Southern Army was losing ground, and the two counties of Guangyi and Luan Island were not expected to be preserved, but Nan Chen's conquest of these two places also returned a small price.
After recovering, he was stagnant. The border line at the border between the two countries has returned to the state it was in when Nan Chen just died. Nan Chen occupies the land of six counties, with Wu Liguo as the retreat.
This battle can be said to have just wiped out the results of Nanzhou Army in Nanchen in recent years.
Qin Nuo looked annoyed, and the Ministry of Defense looked silent.
