Chapter 462 Northern Expedition

Seeing that Yang Weishang did not speak out, Tang Weiyi nodded slightly, and said nothing. She dispersed directly and summoned Wei Huang to the hall. At this time, the court officials in the hall, in addition to Wei Huang, there were Yang Weishang and Shen Qisheng.

Among them, Chen Qisheng, as the Minister of Revenue, needed him to stay here, and after determining the number of troops sent, he would raise food and grass. Wei Huang, as a veteran of the three dynasties, was rich in experience, so he stayed here to check for shortcomings and make up for leaks.

At this time, Wei Huang didn't know what had happened. When he came to the hall, he saluted the empress on the dragon throne, "My minister Wei Huang, have you seen Your Majesty."

"Uncle Wei doesn't need to be too polite."

Tang Weiyi followed Mo Zizai's name and called Uncle Wei Huang. At the same time, this title also set the tone of this matter. Using this title means that what she said later was to ask Wei Huang as a junior, rather than to order Wei Huang as an emperor. "Weiyi asked Uncle Wei to come this time, because she had something to ask for."

After Wei Huang heard Tang Weiyi's name, he couldn't help but be stunned. He had a keen sense of smell and felt that something must have happened, so he subconsciously turned his head and wanted to get some tips from Yang Weishang and Shen Qisheng. As a result, the two of them just smiled bitterly at him, but said nothing.

Looking at the wry smiles of the two, Wei Huang felt a little confused. He replied carefully: "Your Majesty has something to do, but it's okay to say it. I will definitely not refuse."

"That's good."

Tang Weiyi nodded and showed a smile, but she did not directly say that she was personally expeditioning, but asked: "Uncle Wei, now the King of Bei'an is heading south. According to the information obtained by the Ministry of War, he has a total of 80,000 elite border troops in his hands."

"And here in our capital, there are only the 50,000 Yuzhi Army who just came back and the 30,000 Yulin Army who came from you. If we send troops to conquer King Bei'an, Uncle Wei thinks it is better to use a lot of troops."

"Has King Bei'an planned to rebel?"

Hearing Tang Weiyi's words, Wei Huang looked a little solemn. It was basically a foregone conclusion that King Bei'an planned to rebel, so he was not too surprised by this. It was just that he was very good at choosing this at this time. Now the imperial army is still in Guangling County and has not yet withdrawn. Xiao Yan's army has taken the south to the south at this time, involving some of the imperial forces.

At this time, he wanted to take action, but it seemed that he wanted to deceive the court to fight on multiple fronts, and his troops were not enough.

However, Wei Huang was not worried about it too much. On the contrary, he felt relieved. After all, seeing the expressions of Tang Weiyi and Yang Weishang just now, Wei Huang thought something was going on.

Although the case of King Bei'an's rebellion was a troublesome, it was not a problem. After all, the ten thousand Yulin troops who fought in Guangling City had returned. Through actual combat, Wei Huang had a more intuitive understanding of how strong his soldiers were.

Not to mention that there are still 50,000 Yuzhi troops in the capital, even if there is no Yulin Army alone, he is confident that he will destroy Mo Yuanji's border army.

But what Tang Weiyi said just now was to send troops to conquer, not defending the capital, which made him frown slightly, "Your Majesty, the 50,000 troops of the Yuzhi Army are reinforcements prepared for the prince. This force must not be moved."

The reason why the Yulin Army and the Yuzhi Army came back so quickly was because of insufficient troops. The Red Flame Dragon Cavalry first went to intercept Xiao Yan's troops, and then quickly sent the Yuzhi Army back to the court as reinforcements to prevent any accidents from happening to the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry.

Now Tang Weiyi wants to use these 50,000 imperial troops to conquer King Bei'an, what should Mo Zizai do there?

"Uncle Wei doesn't have to worry about Brother Mo."

Tang Weiyi knew that Wei Huang was worried about Mo Zizai's safety, so she did not care about Wei Huang's opposition, but explained softly: "There was news from Brother Mo last night that Xiao Yanbing had been defeated and died. Yang Yanzhang was escorting more than 10,000 prisoners to the direction of the capital. The crisis has been resolved."

"As for Brother Mo, he went to deal with the matter of Wang Qianjun, the governor of Yanyang County, who was stolen by the enemy and stolen the country. It is expected that it will take some time to come back, so I want to completely calm the affairs of the northern border before he returns."

“It’s solved?”

Wei Huang couldn't help feeling a little dazed when he heard this. That was Xiao Yanbing, who had been an opponent of the late emperor for half his life. Wei Huang knew more than anyone else about this person. As a result, including the time when the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry was on the way, it was only a few days before Xiao Yanbing was defeated like this? And he was defeated so quickly?

"Is it Xiao Yanbing old?"

Wei Huang couldn't help but have this question in his mind, but soon, when he remembered the combat power of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, he smiled bitterly and threw the doubt aside. It was not that Xiao Yanbing was old, but that the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry was too strong.

Even if this kind of unreasonable army is prepared, it is difficult to deal with it even if it is prepared. What's more, Xiao Yan's army is now in the middle of the army alone, and it is the first time that he has faced such a strong Red Flame Dragon Cavalry. Without any preparation, he is defeated so quickly and is not unfair.

Even Wei Huang had a very rebellious thought in his heart at this moment, that is, if the former emperor of that year had faced this army, would he have no choice but to do anything?

"It's okay, it's okay, this army belongs to our own, and it's okay, the prince is his own."

Wei Huang was grateful in his heart, and then said, "Your Majesty, since this is the case, I think it only takes 50,000 imperial troops."

"Although the elite soldiers of the border army are all veterans in a hundred battles, in terms of strength, they are no longer on the same level as the Yuzhi Army. Fifty thousand Yuzhi Army is more than enough to face the 80,000 border troops."

Wei Huang also guessed at this time that Tang Weiyi was planning to let him lead the troops. To be honest, in his opinion, with the strength of the Yuzhi Army, not to mention 50,000, even 20,000, he would have the confidence to destroy the 80,000 border troops of King Bei'an.

However, when it comes to using troops, Wei Huang's attitude is still cautious. In addition, King Bei'an is the last remaining opposition force in the Great Zhou. After he is put down, the Great Zhou will not have much resistance in a short period of time. Therefore, Wei Huang is preparing to bring all 50,000 imperial troops to solve the problem in the North once and for all.

"Are you 50,000 imperial troops?"

Tang Weiyi nodded and then said, "Since that's the case, then the 50,000 imperial troops will be handed over to Uncle Yu Wei. At that time, I will go to the battle with Uncle Wei."

"Thank you..."

Wei Huang was about to give him a habitual thank you, but when he was halfway through his words, he suddenly reacted, "What, Your Majesty, you are going to go to the war in person?"

"If this matter fails, it will never be done!"

Wei Huang refused without hesitation. He persuaded: "The war between the two armies is too dangerous. Your Majesty, you must not go to the dangerous place in person."

Mo Zizai is easy to talk to, but in the boy's heart, the one he values ​​most is the sisters Tang Weiyi. These sisters can be said to be his reverse scale.

Don’t look at Mo Zizai’s usual call for a kiss, if they let the empress go to the battlefield, let alone any accidents, even if there is a lack of hair, the kid will have to turn against him.

So anything else is fine, but there is absolutely no discussion on this matter. Wei Huang, who is clear-headed, disagrees with letting Tang Weiyi go to the battlefield.

"Uncle Wei, it's not that Wei Yi insists on causing trouble for you, but I really have to go."

Tang Weiyi knew what Wei Huang was thinking and said, "If I don't go in person, what will Uncle Wei do with the King of Bei'an?"

Although Bei'an King Mo Yuanji has plotted to rebel, his identity is the brother of the late emperor and his identity is the emperor's uncle. If he captures him, he will definitely not be qualified to attack with Wei Huang's identity, so Mo Yuanji will probably be taken back to the capital by then.

Thinking of this, Wei Huang couldn't help but feel silent because he suddenly understood why Tang Weiyi wanted to lead the army in person.

After Mo Yuanji was taken back to the capital, Mo Zizai would definitely not keep him, so the charge of killing uncle will definitely fall on Mo Zizai.

Although Tang Weiyi knew that Mo Zizai didn't care about her reputation, she would definitely not let Mo Zizai take charge of this crime of killing her uncle.

Wei Huang was silent for a long time, finally took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, King Bei'an will die in the battle between the two armies."

In order not to let Tang Weiyi lead the imperial army in person, Wei Huang also fought hard. According to his qualifications, he was not enough to deal with an imperial uncle like Mo Yuanji. The most important thing is that his origin was Mo Congyi's zongwei, who was responsible for protecting the prince. It was even more inconsistent with the rules of the zongwei when he made him attack Mo Yuanji.

But at this time he didn't care about so much. Since he had promised that King Bei'an would die in the battle between the two armies, no matter whether he would die in battle or not, Wei Huang would let him die in battle.

"Uncle Wei doesn't have to do this."

Tang Weiyi shook her head. Although Wei Huang was the commander of the Yulin Army, people from the sect will be under the jurisdiction of the sect mansion for life as long as they are sect mansions. If the sect mansion knows that Wei Huang killed Mo Yuanji, no one except Mo Zizai can handle the rules of the sect mansion.

If Mo Zizai comes forward to protect Wei Huang, then this matter will be reversed and will eventually be counted on Mo Zizai, which will make no sense.

However, looking at Wei Huang's firm attitude, Tang Weiyi knew that she would not express it. Wei Huang would definitely not agree to her commander in person, so she picked up the teacup on the table and pinched a piece of the porcelain cover. Then, without using true energy, she bounced it towards Wei Huang with the power of her fingers.

Wei Huang was stunned for a moment, but subconsciously reached out to pick up the pieces of the porcelain cover. As soon as the pieces fell into his hand, he felt a shock in his palm. He raised his hand and looked at it. Then the palm of the porcelain piece turned red slightly.

This immediately surprised Wei Huang. You know, he is now in a perfect golden body state. Tang Weiyi just bounced it lightly, and then almost hurt himself? The most important thing is that he did not notice a slight fluctuation of true energy just now. This porcelain piece was obviously bounced out by Tang Weiyi's physical strength.

"Your Majesty, you..."

"Although my strength is not as good as Xiao Lu, I still have the ability to protect myself."

Tang Weiyi smiled and said, "On the battlefield, even if there is any accident, you can ensure your safety."

"So, can Uncle Wei feel at ease?"

“…”

Wei Huang was speechless. She was a warrior in the Golden Body Realm. Tang Weiyi had such strength with just one shot, which shows that her strength was 80% lower than that of herself. With this strength, it was too modest to say that she had only the ability to protect herself.

However, when the Golden Body Realm became so popular, Tang Wei's talent was unparalleled in the world, and he barely recognized the Golden Body Realm. Now, Tang Weiyi, the empress who never shows off and does not leak water, is actually the Golden Body Realm, which is really a bit outrageous.

"well……"

Wei Huang sighed, but it was hard to continue to refute. After all, Tang Weiyi was able to listen to him talk so much, which was already very proud of him. Now that he didn't even have an excuse, what else could he say?

"Since Your Majesty insists on commanding the army in person, it is difficult for me to stop me, but if the troops are in power, I need to adjust it."

Wei Huang thought for a while and said, "In addition to the 50,000 imperial troops, another 20,000 Yulin troops should be mobilized to accompany the troops to fight."

Wei Huang had already made up his mind. After going to the battlefield, the 20,000 Yulin Army dared not do anything, and just needed to be responsible for protecting the safety of the empress.

In this way, the total military strength of the court reached 70,000, 70,000 to 80,000, and the overall strength was still so disparate, if I could still lose this battle, I wouldn’t have to wait for Mo Zizai to blame him, and just find a place to wipe my neck and commit suicide.

"Are you mobilizing 20,000 Yulin Army?"

Tang Weiyi frowned slightly. She felt that the amount was a little more. She just saw that Wei Huang had made concessions, so she couldn't say anything else. She just looked at Shen Qisheng. After all, he needed to supply the food and grass.

"this……"

Shen Qisheng felt helpless. The logistics pressure of 50,000 was great enough, but now it has risen to 70,000. Now it needs more food and grass. But he couldn't refute it, so he had to quickly think about it in his heart, and then said, "Food and grass should not be a problem."

Thanks to Mo Zizai's steam train, it is much easier to gather food and grass from all over the country. In addition, in order to deal with the war in the south, a lot of food and grass were stored in the capital. As a result, the war ended too quickly and the food and grass were not used much at all. So it should be no problem to take it out to supply the 70,000 troops at this moment.

However, the premise is to fight quickly, otherwise the logistics will definitely not be able to hold on if the battle lasts for three to five months.

But Shen Qisheng was not worried about this. After all, since the army was built, when did the Great Zhou fight a protracted war? The only time that lasted for a long time was that it had been nearly a month since the Southern Family. But this time was really not even a fraction of the battle compared to the serious battle.

"That's good."

Since there is no problem with food and grass, Tang Weiyi will not say much. Although there are a few left by the 10,000 Yulin Army in the capital, the army of Guangling County is retreating, and the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry is also working together, so the problem is not very big.

"Uncle Wei will go back and prepare for the army. Can we do it if we go to war within two days?"

Wei Huang had nothing to say about this, bowed and bowed, and then said, "Your Majesty, you can do it."
