Chapter 209 You are the marshal

The emperor had a little confused in his eyes, but slowly, he seemed to understand, and looked at Jinning and asked, "Who told you what you said just now?"

The Empress Dowager coughed, "Emperor, this is not the point."

The emperor pondered for a long time, "Mother, it's not because I care about my brotherhood, but because he has not shown his ambitions. What is my name for conquering? Now that the military generals in the court are tired, the soldiers are busy, and the food and grass are not here to continue, how can we fight this battle against the quarrel?"

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager slowly sat upright and raised her eyes, "When the war begins, disaster will surely occur. Now the King of Dongzhe is not rich and has just been broken by Jingting. Any general who leads his troops to fight will surely annihilate his ambitions."

"But," the emperor was also a little sad, "I have discussed this matter with General Zhen and Hou Xiao, and they all think it is not appropriate to send troops at this time. If you want to transfer troops, you must discuss with the cabinet early. I am afraid that everyone will oppose it at that time."

Military power seems to be concentrated, but extremely scattered, which is a major drawback of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The emperor can use force to send troops, but in the case of external resistance, the cabinet will have to discuss the fight against the vassal kings and rebels.

This is also the will set by the ancestors, and its purpose is to prevent the reigning emperor from fearing his brothers and princes and trashing each other.

Now, the King of Dongzhe has acted secretly, and there is insufficient evidence. It is because the Marquis of Jiangning who just returned from the war. The soldiers were tired and launched a large number of troops. The cabinet must object.

The cabinet opposed it, and it would not work internally, and no general dared to rebel against the ancestors' orders.

The Empress Dowager smiled faintly, "The civil war really requires the cabinet to discuss, and once there are signs of military movement, the King of Dongzhe will definitely know that there will be no other spies in the court?"

"What should the queen think?" the emperor asked.

The Empress Dowager looked at Jin Ning, "How many soldiers do you think you need to annihilate the King of East Zhejiang now?"

"Five thousand!" Jin Ning said.

The emperor said coldly: "It's a fool!"

The Empress Dowager said to Jinning very seriously: "I will give you three thousand people. The day after tomorrow is the auspicious day. Your marriage is in advance. I will give you a marriage and order the Hou Jingguo to take charge of the marriage for you. On the night of the marriage, you took three thousand people and left Beijing from the northwest gate."

Jinning was stunned for a moment, three thousand?

"Why would you like to ask the Empress Dowager, who is the general?" If it is a good general, three thousand people may have a chance.

The Empress Dowager looked at her calmly, "You, the Lord of Ning'an!"

Jinning stared at the Empress Dowager with wide eyes and was stunned.

The emperor was also stunned and immediately opposed, "Mother, no matter how many people she sent, she was a woman, even though she had skills, but never went to the battlefield. How could she resist the tens of thousands of troops of the King of East Zhejiang?"

The Empress Dowager smiled for the first time today and looked at Jinning with warmth, "Can you? With your head, please guarantee it with the emperor."

Jinning looked at the smiling empress dowager, but her heart was filled with awesomeness. She looked at the emperor and said firmly: "Chen Jinning guarantees with the head of her husband, that she will kill the thief."

The emperor looked a little bad, but he never disobeyed the Empress Dowager's wishes, and he believed that these 3,000 people could be sent out to find out the military situation.

So he said, "It's not necessary. Remember, don't act rashly and focus on spying. If there is any news, it will be quickly transmitted back to Beijing."

"Abide by the order!" Jinning knelt down and took the order.

The Empress Dowager said: "Appoint Su Yi as the military supervisor, Zhen Shi'an as the deputy commander, Sun Chang'an as the vanguard of food and grass, and the food and grass are the first, pretending to be a merchant and leaving from the East City Gate. You meet in Qizhou and before you arrive in Qizhou, the soldiers must carry enough dry food and water, and they must not stop along the way. Should the three thousand people be dispersed or concentrated on the army, you can arrange it yourself, now leave the palace and go to the Beiying to order troops. My decree will arrive later. Zhen Shi'an is your uncle, and he will cooperate with you with all his strength."

With a few words, it can be seen that the Empress Dowager has already made arrangements.

The emperor was slightly stunned and understood. He glanced at Chen Jinning meaningfully and said, "Mr. Ning'an County, don't let the Queen Mother down."

"My daughter obeys the order!" Jin Ning said in a deep voice.

After being reborn, Jinning was about to go to the battlefield for the first time. He was not afraid and began to analyze the enemy situation and his military situation in his mind.

She stood up and took three steps back, "My daughter is leaving!"

Then, he turned around and strode away.

Inside the hall.

The Empress Dowager looked at the emperor and said, "I can't figure out why my mother made such arrangements?"

The emperor shook his head, "No, my son knows, my mother probably has made a decision."

"Yes, the King of Dongzhe, has to be eliminated, otherwise it will cause a disaster," she looked at the slanted sunlight at the gate. "I missed it once, and if I had the opportunity to make things right, I would never tolerate him."

The emperor didn't understand now, "What does the mother mean?"

"It's not interesting. Apart from the King of Dongzhe, you can rest assured. He is a big trouble, and the emperor knows it in his heart." The Empress Dowager slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at the emperor's firm and handsome face.

"I know he has the intention of rebellion, but I have never wanted to believe that he will really raise an army. It was not until something happened in Jingting that I realized that he already had such excellent weapons. I might be really wrong." The emperor sighed softly.

The Empress Dowager said: "The emperor, the throne, can only see the country and the people. Even if his own brothers want to murder this country and harm your people, you cannot think of any affection. Benevolence is sometimes the greatest cruelty."

"My son has been taught!" the emperor said with a stern face.

"When you ascended the throne, you took your father and uncle as examples in everything, acted vigorously, implemented favorable national policies, and even opposed public opinion to reduce taxes and develop business. Our Dazhou has been prosperous for several years. But you have always been a soft-hearted child. After years of experience, you have always hesitated to deal with things. You have a deep impression of Chen Lianghui's policy, which shows that you know your own problems, and it is not too late to correct them now."

After hearing the Empress Dowager's words, the emperor's eyes gradually became firm.

Let’s talk about the Feifeng Palace in Jinning, Princess Ruiqing followed.

"Princess, thank you!" Jinning said sincerely.

Princess Ruiqing smiled, "What do you thank me for? This is what the Empress Dowager originally meant."

"How could the Empress Dowager believe me so much?" Jin Ning didn't dare to ask, but she was very strange in her heart. She was just a woman. In the eyes of everyone, she had never been to the battlefield and did not know how to fight. Why would the Empress Dowager believe her and entrust her with important tasks?

"The Empress Dowager has always been unexpected in her work, and she may think that no one would have thought of appointing you as a marshal. Even if you really asked the King of Dongzhe to know about it when you were traveling, he would not take you and your three thousand soldiers seriously."

Jinning looked at her in surprise, "Sure enough, you know everything?"

Even the Empress Dowager only gave three thousand soldiers.

"I said that the Empress Dowager had already arranged this, otherwise why would your uncle suddenly enter the Beiying?" Princess Ruiqing smiled.

"But she really believes that I can win in three thousand soldiers?"

"You will have a helper." Princess Ruiqing said with a smile and turned around and left.

Jinning stared at her in a daze.

helper?
