Chapter 1,048: Abandon Beijing and Protect the North

The defeat of the Liang army was too unexpected. Because of Yongle Hou's rebellion, the Liang thieves did not suffer much losses in this battle, and also obtained a batch of sophisticated weapons and equipment, and a large amount of food and grass.

The Liang thieves struck while the iron was hot and attacked Henan, which could be said to have caught the court by surprise. If the court reacted, it would have missed a good opportunity to resist.

Yu Zongshen closed his eyes and said in a weak voice: "Flee south!"

He said the last three words extremely difficultly.

King Dongning is not a good person, and war is bound to break out again in the East China Sea area. Currently, only in the Jiangnan area, under Ye Hanyuan's control, no one dares to get involved.

Jiangnan is rich in supplies, so refugees can only survive by fleeing to the Jiangnan area.

Mr. Yu Ge sighed softly: "It's too early to say this. The 200,000 soldiers and horses commanded by Prince Duan are guarding the Rehe area. They cannot surrender without a fight. At present, the hearts of the people in the government and the public are floating. You can take good care of it." sick……"

Yu Zongshen coughed several more times, and with each cough, there was blood in his saliva: "Since Henan is lost, how can Hebei be preserved? Let the Marquis of Zhen Guo command the Jingwei camp and surround the aristocratic and wealthy families in Beijing. He confiscated 70% of his family's property and sent it to the north, abandoning the capital to protect the north."

Mr. Yu Ge was shocked: "How could you have such an idea? Do you know that doing this will bring you eternal infamy?"

"Death is like a lamp going out. When I die, I won't know how future generations will scold me, so why should I care?"

Yu Zongshen chuckled lightly. Different from his usual mask, this smile revealed a bit of unruliness and freedom, and seemed extremely real.

Mr. Yu Ge disagreed: "Are you determined to die? You are still so young. Doctor Hu also said that your illness is a heart disease. Heart disease requires heart medicine. If you can relax your mind, your body may not be affected." If you can’t take good care of yourself, why should you suffer after so many years?”

As early as after the death of Mrs. Yu, Yu Zongshen had a physical problem. At first, no one in the clan knew about it. When it was discovered, his condition became more and more serious.

After returning to the court after seizing love, everything was complicated and tiring, and the condition became more serious due to lack of support.

Yu Zongshen said quietly: "I also thought about letting go, but no one gave me this chance."

He used to be a high-spirited young man. He went south alone to open up maritime restrictions and benefit people's livelihood. He met Jiao'e, dreamed of making great achievements, and asked the emperor for an imperial edict. He welcomed her in the door with grace and grace. From then on, they grew old together and never left her.

However, fate played a trick on people, and the girl Jiao'e who wanted to be like crazy became the eldest sister-in-law.

He hates and complains, but he doesn't know who to hate or blame.

A heart was crushed alive.

He just thought, what a good woman Xie is. After marrying her eldest brother, she will definitely be on the same page as her eldest brother. They are a loving couple. As long as Xie Roujia lives a good life, he should be able to let go and let go, and try to accept his mother as her If you marry a good woman, even if you can't love her for a lifetime, you can at least respect each other as a guest.

However, he watched helplessly as the person he asked for, who couldn't get what he asked for, was ridiculed, treated coldly, disliked, and even betrayed by his elder brother, and finally ended up with a beautiful girl with a miserable fate.

He hates it!

He also wanted to let go and let go.

but no one,

Gave him this chance.

He also wanted to accept Yao's offer, but every time he looked at Yao, she put on a noble face like a scholarly girl, pretending to be gentle and courteous, and kept talking about competing with Xie Roujia, comparing herself, and trying to show off. , both inside and outside his words, he looked down upon Xie's family background as a merchant, showing how noble his background was.

And this point just hit his sore spot.

If his mother didn't have such a sectarian outlook, how could Xie Roujia become his eldest sister-in-law?

He was heartbroken and disappointed.

His mother crushed his heart and made him unable to get what he asked for. The "good woman" she asked for was nothing more than that, not even half as bright and bright as Xie Roujia.

I have seen such a bright and bright woman who lives a real and vivid life. Is there anyone else in this world who can take my eyes off her?

No!

He carries the expectations of his widowed mother mixed with blood and tears, the trust of his father to prosper the family when he was dying, and the honor and disgrace of the family for hundreds of years. He has lived for responsibility all his life. Xie Roujia is His only delusion in his life of following the rules and refraining from self-restraint.

Because Xie Roujia is his light!

His heart is toward the sun.

Self-brightening.

If you lose your light.

From hell.

It would be better to die.

If there is an afterlife, he will definitely stay by the Naihe Bridge, waiting for Jiao'e, who he has missed all his life. If she doesn't come in one life, she will wait for the next. If the second comes, she will wait for the next life...

If you think about it for a long time, you can always wait.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Now that the matter has come to this, there is no need to mention the past again. Mr. Yu Ge finally sighed: "Abandoning the capital to protect Beizi is a big deal, you have to think about it carefully."

Yu Zongshen's expression was dull: "Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both balanced. The loyal and loyal prince killed the king and ushered in the new emperor for the sake of the common people, but he sacrificed his loyalty and righteousness. He died by inserting his ribs and fulfilled his loyalty with the life of his family. Now I will The road he once walked should be walked again, abandoning the capital and protecting the north, for the sake of our descendants of China for eternity."

Mr. Yu Ge didn't say anything anymore. It was true that there were not enough troops in the capital. Marquis Yongle's rebellion dealt a fatal blow to the court. The majesty of the court was completely lost, the morale of the army was greatly damaged, and the morale of the people was completely lost.

The Liang thieves obtained a large number of troops and military supplies from the Liang army. They were old and new, and they are not what they used to be. Now if we strike while the iron is hot, uu Reading Henan will be lost.

This battle will also become clear.

The total number of people in Rehe and Jingzhao is less than 300,000, and the Liang bandits are fighting more and more people. It is probably only a matter of time before they want to capture Rehe and march into Jingzhao.

When the time comes, the Liang thieves will be the first to attack the aristocratic families in the capital. Those who know how to do it can still save their lives by handing over their wealth. Those who don't know how to do it can send troops to surround the mansion, and they can plunder all the wealth accumulated by the aristocratic families. .

The cheaper one is Liang Thief.

Now that they have raided their homes and sent their money and materials to the north, they can at least help King Mu block the Beidi cavalry and protect the Han people's territory.

Old Yu Ge said: "It is appropriate to leave this matter to the Marquis of Zhen Guo. Their family has followed Emperor Gaozu from their ancestors. They are a family that has made great achievements in serving the dragon. They take Zheng Guo as their title. They have been favored by the imperial court for generations and inherited it." The emperor's kindness is great and he is loyal to the court. Once the Liang thieves break into the capital, they will be the first to attack them, old nobles."

Most of the nobles titled Zhenguo, Weiguo, Anguo, Ningguo, etc. were from families whose ancestors had made great achievements in serving the dragon. Their descendants were demoted, but the court was still grateful for their ancestors' merits, so they did not change their titles. , as long as he did not seek death, the emperors of all dynasties were also very kind to him.

In the face of national crisis, it is necessary to live and die with the king in order to maintain the loyalty of the generations. If he changes his position and joins another party, he will not be reused by the new emperor. Generations of descendants will have to bear the infamy. Even if he joins another party, he may not be able to save his life.

no choice.
