Zhu Di looked a little embarrassed.
He felt as if he had said the wrong thing.
Ever since he learned about Su Yang's identity as an immortal, Zhu Di had attached great importance to him.
In addition, the relationship between the two is son-in-law, so the relationship is very good, and Zhu Di trusts Su Yang more and more.
As a result, there was a military meeting going on right now, and he accidentally revealed his true thoughts and made a fool of himself.
This is not a good thing. After all, King Zhu Di of Yan is the backbone of the Yan army!
When he thought of this, Zhu Di immediately became solemn.
"Although the enemy army has 500,000 troops, our army is not without a chance of victory."
"First, our army has the banished immortal Su Yang in charge, strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away!"
"Secondly, the commander-in-chief of the Southern Army is Li Jinglong. This man has no ability to lead an army. He has no military orders and discipline in running the army. He is not on the same page!"
"Thirdly, the soldiers of the southern army are not suitable for the frost and cold in the north, and there is insufficient food and armament. They are fighting in a different place. Our Yan army is in the right place at the right time, so why can't we fight?"
"Fourth, Li Jinglong lacks strategy and is arrogant. He is tough on the outside but lacks courage on the inside. He is mean and jealous but refuses to accept other people's opinions!"
"The coach lacks trust in his subordinates. He is self-willed and has no authority. His troops are all a mob, chaotic and disorderly, and most of them are sycophants!"
"Fifth..."
Zhu Di shamelessly changed what Su Yang said that day and said it, which greatly boosted everyone's morale.
After all, His Highness King Yan’s analysis is reasonable and well-founded. From this look, it is not impossible for them to win against the 500,000 Southern Army!
Zhu Di saw a hint of relief in his eyes as he saw everyone's morale surge.
This is the importance of morale!
Previously, the generals felt frightened and uneasy because of the news of the imperial court's 500,000-strong army, and even became timid before fighting!
Just imagine, the morale of the Yan army dropped sharply and the morale of the army was weakened before the battle even started. It would definitely lead to defeat!
Therefore, the most important thing for Zhu Di now is to find ways to improve the morale of the Yan army before the imperial army comes!
Promoting this "Theory of Li Jinglong's Ten Defeats" is only one of them. We need to think of more ways to ensure that the morale of the Yan army is as high as a rainbow!
As for the matter in Daning, Zhu Di also figured out that now was not the best time to send troops to attack Daning.
First, we have to wait for the news about Jin Zhong to see if we can directly persuade the seventeenth brother to surrender.
The second is that the morale of the Yan army is now unstable. It is a taboo for military strategists to send troops in such a state!
If the Yan army's surprise attack on Daning failed and their morale plummeted, it would be impossible to withstand Li Jinglong's 500,000-strong army!
Because of this, Zhu Di temporarily changed the topic of today's discussion.
"Everyone, the imperial court's 500,000-strong army is attacking. The morale of our army is probably unstable. Is there any good plan to deal with it?"
After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.
I have to admit, this is a difficult problem.
The reason is simple, everyone is afraid of death!
Even these generals of the Yan Army, when they suddenly heard that the imperial court had sent an army of 500,000 people to kill them, they inevitably panicked and felt fear in their hearts at that moment, not to mention those lower-level soldiers?
Especially most of the soldiers and horses in the Yan army have surrendered!
If this is not handled well and the surrendered troops mutiny and bomb the camp, then they all can wipe their necks and commit suicide without waiting for Li Jinglong's army to come!
Therefore, the top priority now is indeed how to stabilize the morale of the three armies and the morale of the Yan Army!
Everyone discussed for a long time, but could not find a safe and good solution.
After all, military morale has always been a very mysterious thing.
Generally speaking, if a large army is invincible in every attack, its morale will naturally be strong and its morale will be stable!
But now facing the 500,000 elite Confederate troops who are about to kill, I'm afraid no one can be as stable as Mount Tai!
Seeing this situation, Zhu Di was slightly disappointed, but it was hard to say anything.
"Block the news for the time being and strictly prohibit anyone from spreading it outside!"
Since these people can't do it, Zhu Di can only place his hope on Su Yang!
Good son-in-law, good son-in-law, you have to stand up this time!
At the same time, Prince Ning Ning’s Mansion.
Ning Wang Zhu Quan quickly walked towards a secret room.
At this moment, there was a man in black robe waiting for him in the secret room.
When Zhu Quan saw the man in black robe, he immediately became angry and shouted: "Jin Zhong, you are so brave!"
The man in black robe was none other than Shi Jinzhong, the chief minister of the Prince of Yan. On the orders of King Zhu Di of Yan, he rushed to Daning again to persuade King Zhu Quan of Ning to surrender and join him in raising troops to quell the disaster.
The last time Prince Yan's Mansion had not raised troops, Jin Zhong had already come once and brought a large amount of gold and silver treasures to Princess Ning.
However, Ning Wang Zhu Quan did not express his position, so Jin Zhong returned without success.
But now the situation is different. Not only was King Yan Zhu Di not wiped out by Geng Bingwen's 130,000 troops, but he also completely captured the entire northern Xinjiang region. Therefore, Jin Zhong came to persuade King Zhu Quan of Ning to surrender this time, which can be said to be full of confidence!
"Your Highness Prince Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder how your Highness is doing?"
Zhu Quan looked at Jin Zhong with an angry look on his face, and roared angrily: "You are a traitor and traitor now, how dare you enter Daning in such a grand manner?"
"What if Liu Zhen traces something, I will be implicated at that time!"
This is the reason why Zhu Quan is really angry!
He didn't expect Jin Zhong to be so courageous that he would dare to come directly to Daning at this sensitive moment!
Unexpectedly, Jin Zhong laughed loudly after hearing this, and his laughter was full of disdain and contempt.
"How ridiculous!"
"The dignified Taizu Xueyin was controlled by a mere disciple!"
"Your Highness Prince Ning, have you forgotten your identity? Are you really willing to follow in the footsteps of His Highness Prince Xiang?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Quan was instantly furious and his face was as gloomy as water.
"shut up!"
"If you dare to mention King Xiang again, I will kill you!"
King Zhu Bai of Xiang was forced to burn himself to death by Zhu Yunwen, and was even given the evil posthumous title of "King of Violence" after his death.
This matter has become a thorn in the hearts of the kings, and anyone who mentions it will make them furious.
After all, they don’t want to become the next Xiang Wang Bai!
Zhu Quan is not a fool. Of course he understands what Jin Zhong has in mind to bring up King Bai of Xiang!
He just wanted to arouse his own anger towards the imperial court towards Zhu Yunwen, and then respond to King Zhu Di of Yan to raise troops to quell the disaster!
"His Royal Highness Prince Ning knows that our Yan army has conquered the entire northern Xinjiang region and defeated Geng Bingwen's 130,000-strong army in one fell swoop!"
"So, His Highness Prince Ning thinks, does our Yan army have the strength to compete in the world?"
Zhu Quan raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Even he had to admit that his fourth brother Zhu Di was really amazing!
He raised an army in Peiping to quell Nanjiang, and in just a few months conquered the entire northern Xinjiang. He also defeated the 130,000-strong army of founding general Geng Bingwen in one fell swoop. He was indeed a rare hero!
However, just relying on these military exploits to persuade Zhu Quan to join the rebellion is not enough!
"Oh, I have heard that the imperial court has sent an army of 500,000 to kill them. How should the Yan army respond?"
An army of 500,000 people pressed down on the territory, but Yan's army only numbered 130,000 or 40,000. Moreover, Yan's territory was very small, so how could it resist it?
Jin Zhong just smiled slightly, without any panic at all.
"Admittedly, it's really troublesome to have half a million troops pressing down on the border."
"But to me, Yan Jun, it's just trouble!"
Zhu Quan was a little surprised when he heard this.
This Chief of the Yan Palace has such a strong tone!
Is it possible that the fourth brother Zhu Di has some unknown trump cards?
