Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Chapter 536: The Beginning of Civil Disturbance

Just when everyone thought that the war in the Southwest would end in an extremely tragic fight, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.

Before the confrontation between the two armies on both sides of the Ruohe River, there were only two tentative attacks. Everyone believed that this was just a short rest and strategic adjustment for both sides without knowing the strength of the other side.

There will inevitably be a life-and-death battle between Nero's most elite Glory Legion and Ansha's most powerful warlord force and the most dazzling new star.

However, in the last few days of September, Sang Ha did launch an attack on the other side of the Ruo River, but at the same time he transferred other troops who had been resting in Anxia to Yingzhou. Because they just got the news that 50,000 troops from the four northern provinces and 50,000 troops from Yue's family were about to attack Yingzhou from land and sea.

Once these 100,000 soldiers and horses control Yingzhou, the four northern provinces and even the entire Anxia, ​​northeast, southeast can quickly mobilize soldiers and horses to land from Yingzhou by sea to attack their backs. Compared to facing Fu Fengcheng who had beaten them to pieces on the east bank, these people were obviously more willing to face the soldiers from the four northern provinces who came from afar.

As a result, more than 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Nile royal family's personal guards and other legions rushed towards Yingzhou, and there was no time to worry about Sanha's disobedience to the king's order to return home.

What they didn't know was that just as they left, the 17th Legion, which had just fought to death with the Anxia people on Ruohe, had already withdrawn quickly and headed towards the border between Anxia and Nile.

In this regard, the generals under the command of the six southern provinces are also very sorry. Looking at the 17th Army Corps going away and the land on the West Bank that was easily taken back, I felt very unfulfilled.

"Master, are we really not going to chase? That's the 17th Legion, it's a pity to let it go." A general couldn't help asking.

If they defeated the Legion of Glory in Anxia, ​​this record would be enough to envy the others who didn't come.

Fu Fengcheng glanced at the people present, apparently there were many people who had this idea, "The most important thing right now is neither Sanha nor the 17th Army."

Everyone was taken aback, a little puzzled, "What is that?" Didn't they come to the southwest to drive away the Nile people? Now that Sang Ha has run away by himself, is it really okay for them to just watch like this?

Fu Fengcheng turned around and pointed to a place on the map on the wall.

There was silence in the conference room, they almost forgot...there is still a war behind them.

Earlier, when Sun Liang discovered that the Nile people were retreating steadily, he immediately mobilized a large number of troops to go south, and only two young men, Shen Sinian and Yue Li, were allowed to carry them. These two are actually not bad, it's just that after seeing the toughness of the elder and younger, looking at these two, I always feel that there is something wrong.

Now these two are in a stalemate with Sun Liang's people.

"Young Master, what do you mean, let's turn around and beat Sun Liang?" A general asked.

Fu Fengcheng nodded slightly, "Not bad."

"Then what about southern Xinjiang? What if San Ha turns back..."

Fu Fengcheng said, "The southern border was handed over to the Long family and the Yue family. As for Sangha...from the moment he chose to withdraw his troops, he had no way out." How easy is it to go back on your word?

Once San Ha showed the tendency to withdraw his troops and return to the country, he could only go forward all the way, and he would only face the Nilotics. Now that he repented, he had to face both Anxia and Niles. Even if King Nero made a loss-making deal, he might have to kill Sanha first.

"Young Master." Xu Shaoming came in with a telegram, with a bit of joy on his face, "Young Master, General Yao Guan called and he has completely controlled Yingzhou. Wei Jun. General Yao said, please don’t worry, Young Master.”

Fu Fengcheng nodded slightly, raised his eyes and glanced at everyone present.

Everyone immediately stood up and said in unison, "I will obey the order of the young master!"

Fu Fengcheng said calmly, "Pass down the order and set off northward tonight to replace Shen Sinian and Yue Li."

"Yes!"

Shocking laughter came from the study room of the Governor's Mansion in Yongcheng. Governor Fu sat behind the desk with a golden knife, holding a microphone and smiled at the person opposite, "How is it?! Is my son amazing? Look, this How long has it been since the Nile people withdrew from the Southwest? I heard that your son is still entangled with the Dayin people, Long Xiao, can your kid do it?"

The Long Dujun on the other side of the phone was so angry that his veins twitched, "You are so proud! You make it sound like your son beat you down. How many times has he fought Sangha? He has never had a real head-on fight."

Governor Fu didn't care, and still smiled happily, "Don't worry about how he drove people out, anyway, the Nile people withdrew. Don't you people always like to drop your book bags, what are you talking about? Surrender without fighting Soldiers of man? By the way...winter is coming, I heard it's very cold in the northwest. How about it? Do you want our boss to save your son?"

"..." Governor Long took a deep breath, feeling that his liver hurts from being angered by the bastard surnamed Fu.

Still unable to refute, he could only grit his teeth and said, "When your son arrives in the northwest, the war will have ceased. It's better to let him go home to spend the New Year with you. It's very pitiful to be alone."

Governor Fu is speechless, a lonely family full of sons and grandchildren! Immediately sprayed back unceremoniously, "I have a son, a wife, and grandchildren, but you...Old Dragon, take advantage of the winter truce to settle A Yue's marriage quickly? Maybe next year you will be able to have a grandson .”

There was a long silence on the other side, and finally hung up the phone with a snap.

Governor Fu was thrown off the phone but he didn't care, he hummed a little tune and started dialing again.

After a while, the call was connected. Governor Fu beamed and said, "Old Song, are you okay in the northwest..."

"..." Han Ran stood aside and watched silently. A few minutes later, Governor Fu was thrown on the phone again.

In the Yizheng Building in Beijing, Zhuo Lin came out of the Yizheng Building and was walking outside when Yu Chengyi's voice came from behind, "Minister Zhuo."

Zhuo Lin stopped and turned to look at Yu Chengyi, who was leading someone to follow quickly, and said with a smile, "Yu Xiang leaves work so early today?"

Yu Chengyi was a little helpless, and said with a smile, "I can still bear it, but I'm afraid those old people won't be able to bear it."

Zhuo Lin nodded, "Thank you."

It is not easy to be the prime minister of the cabinet. The capital itself is the stronghold of various conservative forces. It is much more difficult to implement any decree than the local government. Zhuo Lin has been in the capital for less than a year, and she feels that she is aging faster than when she was in Yunzhou in the most difficult two years.

This time too, Yu Xiang wanted to promote an education bill, and was besieged by a large group of old men every day.

Compared with these old men who are highly respected and cite scriptures, Yu Xiang really only has the advantage of being young.

Zhuo Lin said, "Actually, there is no need to be so anxious."

Yu Chengyi sighed lightly and said, "Things always have to be done. I think it's easier to solve many things now than to postpone them later."

Zhuo Lin understood, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Fishing in troubled waters?"

Yu Chengyi couldn't help laughing and said, "That's right, it's fishing in troubled waters. Are you going back? Let's go together."

Zhuo Lin knew that Yu Chengyi had something to talk to her, so she nodded and got into the car with Yu Chengyi.

After the car started, Yu Chengyi said, "Have you received the news from Southwest?"

A smile appeared on Zhuo Lin's face, "It seems that you have also received it."

Yu Chengyi sighed, "To be honest, I chatted with Fengcheng twice in the capital last year. At that time, I thought it would be a pity to let him go to the battlefield. I should let him come to the capital."

Zhuo Lin said, "Forget it, he's still young and won't be eaten by these old foxes in the capital?"

Yu Chengyi shook his head, "These young people like to go out now. If they really get together, it's hard to say who will win and who will lose."

Zhuo Lin laughed, "Then they think it's a waste of time to fight those old foxes, and it's best to wait for them to die of old age."

Yu Chengyi looked at Zhuo Lin speechlessly, Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "That's what I thought at the beginning, if I stay in the capital for thirty years, I'm afraid I'll either teach at school or do odd jobs in the office, and be a pretty girl Vases or do something unimportant. But now you see, I am in a high position when I come back, and the old guys who scolded me that I should go home and take care of the children are all dead and rare species."

Yu Chengyi was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help laughing while holding his forehead. Those who were able to scold Zhuo Lin back then and still let her remember, must live to be at least eighty or ninety years old, which is indeed a rare species.

When he finally had enough laughs, Yu Chengyi raised his head and sighed, "Forget it, let's talk about the Southwest. There are Fengcheng and Mr. Xiao on the Nile side. They don't need us to worry about it in a short time. I'm afraid the Northwest will temporarily suspend troops for a while, but the Sun family... Sun Liang is a tough nut to crack."

The northwest will enter severe cold in mid-October, and the temperature in most of the northwest will drop to more than ten degrees below zero, and the coldest is even thirty or forty degrees below zero.

The area near the border of Dayin will be covered with snow and ice, and the people of Dayin will inevitably choose to retreat before that.

Zhuo Lin nodded and said, "Yes, what do you think?"

Yu Chengyi said, "What can I think about the things on the battlefield? It still depends on them. But I thought... If the war with Dayin is destined to not end within this year, should Sun Liang be dealt with first?"

Zhuo Lin thought for a while, "I think that's what they meant. You should have discovered it too. Fengcheng and the others have already gone north to replace Shen Sinian and Yue Li. Song Ye and Long Yue are also approaching the southwest. I'm afraid they are preparing to Encircle Sun Liang. It’s just that there is still a long border to the west, and it may not be possible to completely block Sun Liang.”

Yu Chengyi smiled and said, "There is no need to worry too much. Even if Sun Liang wants to lead troops abroad, who would let him go in those countries and tribes? If Sun Liang can be captured this year, the people of Dayin will not be enough after the spring of next year." Think about it."

"The Sun family is a local snake in the southwest, and it may not be easy if they have been entrenched for a long time." Zhuo Lin reminded, and Yu Chengyi smiled, "I have great confidence in them, Arlene. The southwest is connected in one piece, and this area already occupies a quarter of the entire Anxia."

The southwest has a vast territory, but it is less populated than the coastal cities. If you add the Fu family and the Song family, and the Long family far in the northeast, the capital city is truly isolated. At that time, the opinions of these guys in Beijing will not matter at all.

Zhuo Lin said, "Aren't you worried?"

Yu Chengyi said: "One generation can do the work of one generation. Since we can't do it ourselves, why not do it if we can help the younger generation accomplish their great cause? It's rare for these young people to see through everything at this age and are willing to let go of their own interests and prejudices. When Fu Zheng and Long Xiao are at this age, they can't wait to kill each other. The future is promising."

Zhuo Lin smiled lightly, "Yu Xiang can think about it."

While the two were talking, the car had already arrived in front of Zhuo Lin's official residence. Zhuo Lin was about to get out of the car when Yu Chengyi took a bag from the side and handed it to her, "Aren't you going to Jiazhou for an inspection soon? Do me a favor and pack it for me." These bring Xinyou."

Zhuo Lin reached out to take the bag, a little speechless, "Yu Xiang sent me this way specially, maybe he just wanted me to deliver things for you?"

Yu Chengyi smiled and said, "How come? Isn't this by the way?"

Zhuo Lin frowned slightly and said, "I remember that Xinyou hasn't been back for years, you... Is there something wrong?"

Yu Chengyi was a little helpless, shook his head and said, "It's okay, this child is too thoughtful. If it's convenient, you can persuade her for me. No matter what she does or thinks, she is my daughter, Yu Chengyi."

"I thought you talked about it last year?"

Seeing that Yu Chengyi didn't intend to say more about Zhuo Lin and didn't ask in detail, he just nodded his head and accepted the matter.

In fact, Zhuo Lin understood somewhat in her heart that Yu Xinyou looked weak, but in fact she was the best among young girls in terms of intelligence and character.

Yu Chengyi probably found out something that Yu Xinyou didn't want him to know. Yu Xinyou didn't know how to face his father, so he refused to come back.

Standing at the door watching Yu Chengyi's car leave, Zhuo Lin looked at the heavy baggage in her hand and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

The little girl still doesn't understand that in the eyes of a father who loves his daughter, no matter what the daughter looks like and does, she is still his most beloved daughter. Yu Chengyi would only feel guilty that he did not take good care of his daughter, rather than dislike her for not being what he expected.

Of course, perhaps for Yu Xinyou, her father's guilt was also something she didn't want to face.

On the first day of October, the news that the Legion of Glory had left the Ruohe area was sent back to the Nile Palace.

On the second day of October, King Nero ordered the execution of Sanha's eldest son, Sangu. He also ordered the soldiers of the 17th Legion who were still in the country to disarm and disarm other legions. This move was resisted by the Seventeenth Army, and there was a fierce conflict with those who were ordered to disarm.

On the third day of October, Sanha led the 17th Legion back to Nile, and published the book "Against Illegal War" and "Declaration of the Legion of Glory Self-Defense", detailing ten crimes against the Nile royal family.

For a time, the public opinion in Nile was uproarious. Those who supported the royal family of Nile and those who supported Sanha split into two camps and began to attack each other and even had bloody conflicts.

On the same day, the Nile royal family declared Sanha treason, and announced that Sanha would be arrested on two charges of treason and treason, and all honorary titles and identities of Sanha would be abolished.

The next day, the 17th Legion led by San Ha captured the important town in the northeast of Nile. On the same day, news came that more than 100,000 soldiers and horses of Nile in Anxia were wiped out.

For a while, someone scolded Sanha for treason and sold the Nile soldiers to the Anxia people, and someone scolded the royal family for persecuting the Seventeenth Army, which caused Sanha to fight back angrily.

But in any case, the Nile royal family originally wanted to take advantage of Sun Liang's act of setting fire in the southwest of Anxia, ​​but finally set the fire on their own land.

At this point, the prelude to the civil turmoil in Nile was officially opened.
