Pang Shigu took a deep breath.

This veteran who has served for three dynasties has excellent self-cultivation and is close to breaking through at this moment.

Off!

It’s all off!

He and His Majesty carefully planned the plan, but the result was this.

The voices of the court officials seeking peace were overwhelming, but they were not to this level during the defeat last year...

It was obvious that over-promotion and over-exaggeration of the power of Emperor Yuanwu caused such panic.

This is the evil consequence of incentivizing transition.

Seeing that His Majesty's face was ugly, Pang Shigu said loudly: "It is precisely because Emperor Daning is extremely hateful. If he attacks, it will cause death to all living beings. Therefore, we must concentrate our efforts..."

"Your Majesty traveled thousands of miles to seek peace, but was rejected by Emperor Daning. He didn't even see his face. What's the use of sending envoys again?"

"I also ask you to abandon your desire for peace. The most important thing now is to develop people's livelihood, accumulate national strength, give it a go, and fight back with all your might!"

After Pang Shigu finished speaking, a discussion immediately arose.

"Isn't it unfair for the Prime Minister to say such a thing? When the late Emperor was in power, our country, Liang, was so powerful. What was the final result?"

A courtier immediately asked: "Has the Prime Minister ever gone out to see the suffering of our Liang people?"

"Bianjing is so prosperous, but now it is so desolate. Isn't this the harm of war?"

The court meeting has become a debate conference.

Pang Shigu spoke again: "It is Daning that does not accept Liang's request for peace, not that we do not seek peace. What will be the consequences of His Majesty's personal visit?"

"What's more, His Majesty has already adopted the strategy of recuperating and recuperating, so why did he ever have any intention of attacking?"

He tried his best to talk, but no one could listen.

They only know that when Daning's army invades, life will be ruined!

They don't want to die, they want to live!

Seeing such a difficult situation, Zhu Zhen suppressed his anger and loudly said: "Retreat!"

The court meeting ended in this atmosphere.

Returning to the inner court, Zhu Zhen, in anger, directly cleared all the memorials on the Long Case to the ground.

Not only angry, but also sad.

The road ahead is confused, where will Liang Guo go?

Since returning to Liang State, Zhu Zhen has devoted himself to government affairs. The place was in ruins, and the court wanted to try its best to restore production and farming. After he left Beijing, these important affairs were taken care of by Prime Minister Pang Shigu.

Pang Shigu worked hard, but there was no progress.

The two countries seem to be stuck in a vicious cycle.

The main reason was the lack of labor force. The negative consequences of the previous aggressive war had begun to show. In order to prepare for the military, steel was smelted on a large scale. At that time, all the farm tools and iron tools were returned to the furnace. The key was that the smelted iron was all scrap iron and could not be used for weapons at all.

Liang Jun was defeated on the battlefield. A very important reason was that the weapons were not good.

Compared with Daning, it is so different that it almost breaks at a touch.

Nowadays, farm tools are missing, and there are no iron tools. The war was to transport military supplies, and cattle were requisitioned from the people. After the defeat, these cattle carriages disappeared without knowing where they were...

The country's defeat was not just a slight loss, it completely destroyed its foundation. Even a wise prime minister like Pang Shigu could not restore it in a short time.

It takes time!

The time limit given by Prime Minister Pang Shigu is at least ten years to resume basic production and farming, and another ten years to return to wartime. As for returning to its peak, it will take at least thirty years!

For a country, thirty years is a short time, but Daning will never give them thirty years...

It was like a huge mountain pressing down on Zhu Zhen, making him unable to breathe.

"Your Majesty, please rest a moment and don't be too impatient..."

Pang Shigu said: "Now the courtiers have not understood your majesty's painstaking efforts. At least our strategy of disrupting the enemy has worked."

"Emperor Daning was originally a rebel vassal, so he had a serious prejudice against the nobility. After the war was won, the soldiers wanted to be rewarded, but Emperor Daning was not willing. We spread the news and destabilized the morale of Daning's army. Soon they would be able to

When we see results, the wind will naturally turn around."

Pang Shigu picked up the memorials on the ground one by one.

He was stooped and had gray hair.

The prime minister is also old.

How long can he hold on?

And how long can I hold on?

Zhu Zhen took a deep breath, knowing that he could not have such thoughts.

He is the Emperor of Liang, and he wants to bring Liang back to its peak!

"His Majesty!"

Just as Zhu Zhen regained his composure, courtiers hurriedly walked in.
Chapter completed!
