As soon as the soldier came in, he knelt down and said: "The emperor, the city of Yanzhou has been occupied by Feng Lingtian. King Jin's subordinates resisted stubbornly. They fought and retreated. There were still more than 20,000 dead and injured. King Jin now carries 20,000. The remnants retreated to the outskirts of the city, and Yanzhou City is now occupied by Feng Lingtian people. Feng Ling is inherently cruel. After he attacked the city, in order to reward his subordinates, he let the barbarians of Tiansheng Kingdom burn and looting the people. , No evil, no evil, the King Jin really can't hold on, so he once again asked the emperor to send troops for reinforcements!"

"Fortunately, he is so windy, he dared to slaughter my people and occupy my Yanzhou! Father Xu, quickly draft an imperial decree for me, and I will order King Li to fight immediately!" Emperor Hongyuan said angrily.

At this time, Li Jinzhong, who was serving tea next to him, said: "The emperor, King Li is not willing to go to war at all. If he is forced to go to war, I am afraid that he will be resentful and will not really betray his life for the emperor. According to Nucai, His Royal Highness Li King The refusal to go to war must be because of the anti-poetry case. I am afraid that we have to clean up his charges and pay him innocence before he is willing to go to war!"

"What innocence? Li Jinzhong, do you mean I was wrong with King Li?" Emperor Hongyuan said coldly.

Li Jinzhong said hurriedly: "The emperor calms down his anger, the slave doesn't mean that."

"Do you think I can only rely on Chu Xuanchen? I have a magnificent country of Chu, with a population of tens of thousands, outstanding people, and talented people. Is it possible that only Chu Xuanchen can be used? Is there not even a brave general? I can call another general. Go." Emperor Hongyuan slapped the imperial case with an angry palm and roared.

Li Jinzhong said: "But the emperor, this time the opponent is the insidious and treacherous Feng Lingtian, not someone else. We had several outstanding generals who were defeated by him when they were fighting against Feng Lingtian. Only His Royal Highness Li In order to defeat him. This time, what if you arrange a general to go and lose like before? This battle is very important, and we can’t lose. Looking at Chu, it seems that there is really no one except His Royal Highness Li King. Can compete with Feng Lingtian!"

Li Jinzhong said so, but he was secretly thinking.

It's not that Chu has no talents, but Chu has a lot of talents, but it's buried, causing no one to use it now.

Emperor Hongyuan was mediocre and innocent. When he usurped the throne, he killed and belittled many talented people who were loyal to the first emperor in order to eliminate the differences and consolidate the throne.

Hundred officials, such as Su Ming, acted and acted as nepotism, accepted benefits and promoted treacherous officials, and made the court smack of smoke, and the real talents were buried!

Emperor Hongyuan sighed, "Without an outstanding general, I can win in terms of numbers. He has 50,000 people in the wind, right? I can mobilize 150,000 people to fight. We have more troops than Feng Lingtian three. Double, I don’t believe that I can’t kill him!"

"But the emperor, the total strength of my Chu State is only more than 400,000, and I am stationed in various places. Not to mention that I will not be able to deploy so many soldiers at a time and a half. If 150,000 troops are really deployed, the border will be tight at that time, I am afraid that the surrounding areas will be tight. Other countries will take advantage of the vacancy to enter and invade the imperial city." Li Jinzhong said.

"Hey!" Emperor Hongyuan sighed heavily.

Then he snorted coldly, "Hmph, this is not okay, that's not okay. It really doesn't work, I will put Princess Li and their children under house arrest, threatening Chu Xuanchen to fight, see if he dares to agree to fight!" Hongyuan Emperor Yin Yi said.

Li Jinzhong hurriedly persuaded: "The emperor, this is absolutely impossible. This Princess Li and the child are the bottom line of King Li. If the emperor does this, I am afraid it will irritate King Li. King Li is aloof and has never been upset. He cherishes him so much. His wife and children, if the emperor threatens him with his wife and children, I am afraid that he will be desperate because he has nowhere to go, and it will be bad if he will die by that time."
