023. Fight or flee

The green eyebrows are far away, as beautiful as the autumn moon, and at this moment there is a faint anger on his face, just like the witch, the Goddess of Luo, cold and stunning.

Not to mention in the Song Dynasty, even in modern times, Zhao Dongting rarely saw such a temperamental woman.

He came to his senses and waved to the guards in the courtyard, "Let's retreat and let them leave."

It wasn't because this female assassin was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to kill it. It was absolutely innocent and cute that these two assassins didn't want to kill them with chivalrous spirit. I think they wouldn't come to assassinate themselves again after having a conversation tonight.

"Emperor..."

Yue Peng was anxious and was about to speak, but Zhao Dongting stopped him with his eyes.

The tall female assassin looked down at Zhao Dongting in confusion, "Why don't you kill me?"

Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "Then why don't you take my life?"

The female assassin didn't know how to answer.

Zhao Dongting sighed and said, "I am a military officer, you are a civilian. Although you are here to assassinate me, we are both thinking about the people of the Song Dynasty. My sword is used to deal with the Yuan thieves, but not to deal with our own people."

"you……"

The tall female assassin's eyes became extremely complicated in an instant.

The little assassin of Linglong said from the side: "Sister, he is a good emperor!"

The tall female assassin stopped talking, took her sister's hand, whistled at the sea snake, and walked towards the corner of the wall.

Both of them were extremely skilled in light skills. They stomped their legs on the wall for a few steps, and they even climbed over a two-meter-high wall.

The sea snake also followed the wall and left.

Yue Peng and Li Yuanxiu hurried to Zhao Dongting and fell to the ground, "It scared the emperor."

Zhao Dongting looked at the wall with unfulfilled intentions and shook his head and said, "It's not your fault, it's my negligence."

Then, he suddenly remembered something and said to the guards present: "The incident of the Yellow Dragon attack tonight is something you cannot announce!"

If Huanglong becomes someone else's pet, if this matter is spread, the people who have just gathered will probably be disintegrated.

The guards quickly answered.

Yue Peng bowed and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to search those two female thieves?"

Zhao Dongting waved his hand and smiled, "Since I have let them go, why are I searching them for?"

Little did they know that at this time the two female assassins were actually hiding outside the wall. When they heard Zhao Dongting's words, the two sisters looked at each other and then they really left.

But this night is destined to be calm.

Zhao Dongting just asked Yue Peng and the others to take the injured guards to heal the wounded. Just as she was about to go to bed, Concubine Yang rushed to the scene when she heard the news.

When the guard leader shouted for help, even Yue Peng and the others were alarmed, it was natural that Concubine Yang could not have been unaware of it.

She arrived with Yang Yidong, Ying'er, and some guards.

Concubine Yang Shu loves the house and the mistress. Because Zhao Dongting loves Ying Er very much, she gradually favors this gentle and sensible maid. In the past two days, she wants Ying Er to go to her bedroom to sleep, which is extremely favorable. Of course, there must be an intention to cover up her affairs with Yang Yidong.

In the bedroom, Yang Shufei, who was so scared that she had to scold Zhao Dongting, but she burst into tears.

Ying Er also looked at Zhao Dongting with concern, her eyes very resentful.

When Zhao Dongting saw that Concubine Yang seemed even more nervous than the sky fell, she was moved and couldn't help but feel a little headache.

But he had no other way, so he could only persuade and coax the two women. He finally comforted the two women and went back to sleep.

At this time, it was almost two o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Dongting was very tired and fell asleep quickly while lying on the bed.

But in the morning, he still had to go to the morning court on time and on time. This made Zhao Dongting murmured. It turned out that being an emperor was not so easy.

This body was very weak and had not had a good sleep, so I felt even more uncomfortable.

With two panda eyes on him, Zhao Dongting felt that his eyes could not be opened and his head was dizzy. But he had no choice but to hold on.

If you finally took over this turbulent Southern Song court, you must set an example.

The ministers have already stood in the hall.

Yue Peng's injuries were almost healed, and he was also standing in the court as the head of the police officers and infantry, with a gleam in his eyes shining brightly.

He is now favored by Zhao Dongting, and it can be said that he is the time to succeed in life.

Looking at Su Quandang again, it will be much more pitiful.

He was transferred to the Palace Front Office, but the Palace Front Office had no idle position. Su Liuyi only arranged a position as a squad commander for him, so his position was naturally demoted.

If he hadn't been the deputy officer of the guards and infantry before, and everyone knew that it was only a temporary matter for him to serve as the commander of the squad, he would probably not be qualified to enter the Political Affairs Hall.

Li Yuanxiu shouted at the top of her voice that something was going on.

Zhang Shijie immediately walked out of the ranks and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to do to report."

Zhao Dongtingqiang asked with his spirits: "What's the matter?"

Zhang Shijie looked solemn, "I received a tip yesterday. The Yuan thief Emperor Kublai Khan ordered the rebel general Zhang Hongfan to be the commander and Li Heng as the deputy marshal to march into Fuzhou. I was afraid that I had plans to march into Xianglong County."

All the ministers were shocked and immediately there was a discussion in the Political Consultative Hall.

Zhao Dongting was also very surprised. According to history, Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng should have not entered Fuzhou yet. It seems that their arrival has really affected the direction of this era.

A colorful butterfly flapped its wings on the other side of the ocean, which really triggered a tsunami.

Zhao Dongting originally thought he had enough time to prepare, but now it is imminent in the blink of an eye.

Yuan general Ali Hague was staring at him in Hunan, Guangxi and other places. Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng led their troops to Fuzhou at this time, most of them came to the island of Benzhou.

After a while of silence, Zhao Dongting asked in a deep voice: "Zhang Hongfan, how many soldiers does Li Heng have?"

Zhang Shijie said: "Ten...150,000."

The ministers became even more disgusted.

On the island of Benzhou, including the imperial guards in front of the palace, and the figures who fled to serve the king on the way, the total number of soldiers was only 20,000.

Although most of Zhang Hongfan's 150,000 troops transport food and grass, the troops that actually participated in the war would never be less than 50,000.

Two thousand to five thousand, the chances of winning are slim.

Zhao Dongting spoke easily. He knew that in ancient times, the ancient army had to occupy a lot of military and horses by marching and fighting alone. If less than half of the soldiers actually participated in the war, there might not be no hope of victory.

Just as he was about to speak, a minister came out from below and said, "Master, let's leave this place!"

This person is nothing else, but Su Liuyi, the official in charge of the Dianqian Company.

He was the real commander of the eight thousand imperial guards in the front office of the Palace. At this time, he said he was going to escape, and then several ministers quickly came out to agree.

Zhao Dongting made a lot of filming, "I said that I will never be the Rat Emperor anymore. Even if I die, I will die in Xianglong County!"

Su Liuyi stopped talking.

Zhang Shijie said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the Yuan army is powerful, and we are carrying tens of thousands of people. If we fight with the Yuan army, we will inevitably suffer death and injury!"

Zhao Dongting swept his eyes over the other ministers in the hall.

Some people whispered, some people walked out of the line and asked to leave the island of Benzhou.

They were all scared by the Yuan army.

Before Zhao Dongting came, the Southern Song Dynasty, from the monarch and ministers to the people, they valued culture and over military affairs, and had a weak personality, and most of them were like this.

Seeing that no one at the ministers below said he wanted to fight, Zhao Dongting couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

At this time, Yue Peng suddenly walked out of the line and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, I will ask you to lead the army to stay in Xianglong County to resist the Yuan army!"

Su Liuyi immediately sneered and sarcastically said, "You are only a few hundred troops, how can you fight with the Yuan army?"

Yue Peng said: "If the emperor does not leave, he will sacrifice his life to protect the emperor!"

"good!"

Zhao Dongting suddenly stood up, his eyes flashed with gleam, and said, "General Yue, I did not read you wrong! There is the legacy of Yue Pengju!"

All the ministers who advocated leaving fell to the ground, "Please think twice..."

Zhao Dongting pretended to be angry and said, "If I retreat again and again, I will be driven out of my territory by the Yuan thief."

Lu Xiufu pondered for a few moments, and saw that Zhao Dongting would rather die than retreat, he asked, "Does the emperor have a good plan to retreat to the enemy?"

When Zhang Shijie heard this, he suddenly remembered what Zhao Dongting said to him a few days ago, and his eyes were filled with hope, and he kept saying, "If the emperor really had a good plan to retreat to the enemy, I would like to stay here and fight the Yuan army to the death."

Su Liuyi was in charge of the front office of the Palace, and Zhang Shijie, as the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was the highest commander of the 20,000 soldiers on the island of Benzhou.

In name, the Deputy Privy Councilor even had the right to be in charge of the country's troops.

When Zhao Dongting heard Zhang Shijie say this, he finally felt a little relieved. They were not as afraid of the Yuan army to the core.

When Su Liuyi saw that Zhang Shijie suddenly changed the wind direction and fled to guard, he looked puzzled.
