A few days later, news of Kyoto City reached the western front.
As all the soldiers had guessed, Jiang Chunxiao assumed the post of General Zhenxi at this critical juncture.
Jiang Chunxiao accepted the imperial edict, but there was no excitement in his heart.
Because it was the tragic death of his former General Zhenxi that gave him this opportunity.
All that was left in his heart was hatred and anger towards the Western Region Dynasty.
"The whole army obeys the order!"
"All combatants on the western front will come to Jinlong Pass immediately for support."
"This battle will directly determine the outcome of the war, so we must go all out."
Jiang Chunxiao's order spread throughout the military camps on the western front.
The moment of decisive battle is coming.
…
Kyoto City, inside the Tai Chi Hall.
"Uncle Emperor, is there really no action on the northern frontline?" Jiang Qiulu asked King Jiang.
"Your Majesty, indeed not."
"The war with the Turkic Dynasty ended not long ago. It is impossible for the Turkic Dynasty to invade Daxia again in such a short period of time."
Later, King Jiang told Jiang Qiulu the details of the situation on the northern frontline.
"In this war with the Western Region dynasty, I hope the Turkic dynasty will not intervene." Jiang Qiulu said.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, if the Turkic dynasty dares to intervene."
"The old minister personally led the army to repel them."
After this incident, the Western Front became extremely united.
In the palace, all the ministers heard that Lin Rui, the general of Zhenxi, had died, and no longer advocated defense.
The next day, Jinluan Hall went to court early.
Now, all the ministers are talking about is the direction of the war.
"Your Majesty, the second batch of grain and grass has been sent to the western front and is expected to arrive within five days." A minister stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, the Longxiang Battalion has rushed to the western front line to support and is stationed fifty miles behind the western front line." A military general reported.
Longxiang Camp is one of the five major camps composed of the Jingxi Camp.
Now, according to Jiang Qiulu's order, he will go to the Western Region Dynasty as a rear reinforcement force to prepare for any eventuality.
In fact, judging from the combat effectiveness of the Western Front Army, the Western Region Army can be repelled without reinforcements.
But just in case, we still sent Longxiang Camp there so that we could have a response.
This morning meeting lasted for three hours and did not end until noon.
Jiang Qiulu secretly glanced at King Yong with his peripheral vision and found that he had no reaction, and couldn't help but feel doubtful.
For such a long time, King Yong has not behaved strangely, which surprised Jiang Qiulu.
Normally at this time, King Yong would definitely stand up and say some bad ideas or slander others.
If it doesn't work out, there may be a quarrel with King Jiang.
"Your Highness the Regent." Jiang Qiulu said.
When he heard Jiang Qiulu calling him, King Yong immediately stood up and responded.
"Regarding the Western Front, does His Highness the Regent have any opinions or opinions?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, in the eyes of the veteran, there is no problem with Your Majesty's deployment of the western front."
"I believe that our army of the Great Xia Dynasty will defeat the enemy as soon as possible and return in triumph."
What King Yong said was very nice, and at the same time he flattered Jiang Qiulu.
Jiang Qiulu nodded, and then looked at the ministers.
"If you have any suggestions regarding this war, please feel free to inform me or His Highness King Tianqi at any time."
"Okay, it's getting late. Let's retreat."
After everyone left, Jiang Qiulu shook his sore neck.
"Brother Emperor, actually you don't have to worry about the Western Front."
"The current army of the Great Xia Dynasty is different from the past and will definitely be able to win." Jiang Donglin stepped forward and pinched Jiang Qiulu's neck.
"That's true in theory."
"But there are too many uncertain factors in the war. The group of assassins who sneaked into Jinlong Pass that day are a typical example." Jiang Qiulu said.
"Oh, who would have thought that there would be a traitor in our army." Jiang Donglin sighed.
"When a person's heart is blinded by interests, he will be shaken."
"The reason why some people act loyal is actually because they don't have enough interests." Jiang Qiulu said.
After hearing Jiang Qiulu's words, Jiang Donglin felt something in his heart.
"Donglin, if I were not here, you would be the king of the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Have you ever thought about letting me disappear completely and ascend to the throne?"
Jiang Qiulu just asked casually, but found that the movements of Jiang Donglin's hands suddenly stopped.
Then there was a sudden force on his hand, and Jiang Qiulu screamed in pain.
"Brother Emperor, if one day you lose trust in me, you can immediately order my death."
"Brother, please don't say this again in the future."
Jiang Qiulu turned his head and found that Jiang Donglin's expression was extremely serious.
After being stunned, a smile appeared on Jiang Qiulu's face.
"Okay, okay, brother Huang, I promise you."
"Lord Commander, don't be angry. I will apologize to you, okay?"
Jiang Qiulu smiled playfully and said to Jiang Donglin.
"Your Majesty is so powerful in Great Xia, just saying apology is not enough."
"I have conditions." A hint of cunning suddenly appeared on Jiang Donglin's face.
"Tell me what you want and I'll try my best to satisfy you."
"Well, I heard that the Royal Winery has brewed a new red wine."
"Brother Emperor, please send ten altars over, and I will help Brother Emperor taste them," Jiang Donglin said.
"Huh, I thought it was a request that was as difficult as going to heaven. It was just a few jars of wine."
"It's easy to talk about." Jiang Qiulu agreed.
In fact, this kind of red wine has just been produced by the winery, and the initial price is quite high.
Due to the high price and the cumbersome production process, only one hundred jars were produced.
Jiang Donglin opened his mouth with a smile, but Jiang Qiulu didn't feel distressed at all.
…
In Prince Yong's Mansion.
At this time, King Yong was in a much better mood.
After a long time, King Yong's plan finally succeeded.
Although Qian Xiangdong, his spy, did not survive, Lin Rui is dead.
In King Yong's eyes, this was already a pretty good deal.
Moreover, the royal family simply thought it was Qian Xiangdong's own rebellion, and did not suspect that King Yong was responsible.
"Your Majesty, our plan seems to be successful." Pang Fu said from the side.
"Don't be careless."
"We don't know the details of this assassin team sent by the Western Region Dynasty at all."
"Perhaps these people are the real Rakshasa Sect killers." King Yong guessed.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty, the Rakshasa Sect that was eliminated last time was just a cover?" Pang Fu asked in shock.
"It's not impossible."
"Anyway, the pressure on the Western Front is enough to give them a headache."
"We'll just have to wait and see."
