Lu Qian looked at Chen Qi in disbelief and said, "Chen Qi, are you talking about our Tianji Army being defeated?"
Lu Qian always didn't believe his ears.
Chen Qi said to Lu Qian with an unkind expression, "I didn't believe it at first...it wasn't until several urgent reports from the border area confirmed this that I had to believe it..."
After hearing what Chen Qi said, Lu Qian asked, "Didn't I ask you to equip a divine machine battalion in the Tianji Army? Didn't you do it?"
Chen Qi said to Lu Qian with an ugly expression, "Of course we did. However, we still don't know exactly what happened in the border area... We have already sent out scouts to find out."
"How many Tianji troops are currently deployed in the border area?" Lu Qian asked Chen Qi.
"There are 100,000 Tianji troops guarding the border, and another 150,000 are at the border of Beiliang. The remaining 150,000 are still in Zhejiang and Fujian! Master, do you want to mobilize the troops?" Chen Qi said.
Zhang Bao then opened his mouth and said, "Master Leader, my Shenji Army now has more than 50,000 people, each of whom is equipped with a firearm. I request to go to war! A mere Great Zhou dares to trouble our Great Xia, damn it!" "
Lu Qian was silent for a moment.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
They Dazhou must have something to rely on, so they dared to take action suddenly.
"Don't worry, how are the preparations of the King of the Sea Army now? Are some places near the sea in Zhejiang and Fujian capable of defense?" Lu Qian continued to ask Chen Qi.
Chen Qi nodded and said, "The Sea King Army is completely mature, even if we mobilize them to the border to fight on the battlefield."
Seeing this, Lu Qian smiled bitterly and said, "Are you crazy, or am I crazy? You and I both know that it is not easy to train these Sea King Army. Now that they are so far away... You must let the Sea King Army guard them first. To stabilize the stability of our coastal areas. Then let Gu Qi send 150,000 Tianji troops to the pass near Yanmen Pass to stock up on troops."
Chen Qi nodded repeatedly.
"There are no problems elsewhere." Lu Qian asked the cabinet ministers.
Cabinet ministers shook their heads.
Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue stammered, "Sir...the leader...the leader, all the...business lines...in the Great Zhou Dynasty...have...been...broken, and our largest industry, the Heshi Chamber of Commerce, has also been cut off."
Lu Qian nodded and said, "Xin Shun from the Ministry of Rites, have you received any documents from Da Zhou?"
Xin Shun nodded and said, "I just received a declaration of war."
Lu Qian frowned slightly and said, "Okay, if they start a war, then it's not up to them when to stop! All departments must make corresponding preparations for war. Chen Qi, especially you, go figure it out. what happened!"
After finishing speaking, Lu Qian said to Xin Shun, "Go and inform the people of the United States and go to the meeting hall of the United States to discuss the matter."
Xin Shun nodded.
"Master Leader, in this situation. Is the United States still useful? Although the United States has been activated and a treaty has been formulated, none of the countries has invested any funds?" Xia Wenzhi asked Lu Qian with some worry.
Lu Qian frowned slightly and then said, "It doesn't matter, this United States is originally a country that benefits both of them...I'm worried now..."
Lu Qian stopped abruptly mid-sentence.
Everyone looked at Lu Qian, but Lu Qian didn't say any more.
"You guys can continue the discussion, I'm going to prepare a meeting with these people from the United States."
…
The residences of Northern Liang envoys.
At this time, Xia Yan smiled slightly and said to Urda, "That person is right. Their Great Zhou actually declared war on Great Xia, and defeated Great Xia step by step..."
Urda also nodded repeatedly, and then said to Xia Yan, "Someone just came to notify us to attend the United States Congress. It seems that Lu Qianhai is really anxious..."
Xia Yan nodded and said, "Huh, Da Zhou has withdrawn from the membership...Do you still want us to continue to be his younger brothers?"
After listening to Xia Yan's words, Urda said to Xia Yan, "Xia Yan, what do you mean..."
Xia Yan said to Urda, "Let's fool this Lu Qian first. Anyway, I agree to everything, but do nothing..."
Urda smiled and said to Xia Yan, "Gao, as long as the war in Great Zhou attracts this eunuch. Then, it will be our chance."
Xia Yan smiled slightly, and then said, "That's right! Unless this eunuch is really the son of God this time, I'm afraid he will be unable to save himself."
Ulda nodded repeatedly, and then said to Xia Yan, "Then do you want to tell Beiliang?"
Xia Yan said to Urda, "No need for now! Those people in Beiliang want us to die... I am the only one who can secure the political power here. If you take down Daxia, I can help you take down Beiliang." At that time, we two brothers will join forces to sweep the Great Zhou Dynasty! Unify the world!"
After seeing Xia Yan's excited expression, Urda was also very excited and said to Xia Yan, "That's right! Let's divide the world equally."
After the two people finished talking, they got on the carriage and arrived at the office of the United States.
Office of the United States.
Lu Qian was sitting in the center.
The empress of the Western Regions was sitting aside. She left all the affairs of the Western Regions to others and came to Daxia herself.
"Prime Minister Lu, has something serious happened?" the empress said looking at Lu Qian's serious expression.
Lu Qian looked at Empress Si Bing and said, "Although it hasn't happened yet, it doesn't give me a good feeling. There is always a feeling that the storm is about to come."
Empress Si Bing said to Lu Qian, "Didn't we negotiate the contract with the United States very well when we were in Beiliang? This is a win-win situation!"
Lu Qian smiled faintly, and then said to Empress Si Bing, "Everyone gathers for profit, and everyone disperses for profit! If someone offers a higher price, this cooperation is just a piece of waste paper... Dazhou has withdrawn from this The United States. And declared war on us, Daxia."
Empress Si Bing said with a surprised look on her face, "What? How is that possible? Dazhou? Aren't they severely injured by the blow you made before? Are they crazy if they still dare to provoke Daxia now?"
Lu Qian shook his head and said, "Of course I'm not crazy. But I have something to rely on! Just look at Beiliang who arrived late, which is enough to illustrate this problem. Unexpectedly, I thought they were all smart people and would understand The benefits of joining the United States! Now it seems that they are just some short-sighted people."
Empress Si Bing said to Lu Qian, "Prime Minister Lu, no matter what, our Western Region will always stand on the same line as Daxia..."
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Of course I believe you. I'll see what the attitude of the Beiliang people is later. If something is wrong, you'd better rush back to the Western Region. I'm afraid something might happen to the Western Region if you're not here!"
Si Bing nodded repeatedly.
At this moment, Xia Yan's slightly provocative voice came from outside the door, "Sir, what's wrong with you coming here in person? I haven't seen you several times. I thought you didn't care about worldly affairs, sir?"
