"Unexpectedly, the emperor has already abdicated, and Fang Zhengyi is here too..." King Wu looked at the Brotherhood spies who had just arrived and fell into deep thought.
For so many years, he has been holding back overseas, just for a chance to confront Emperor Jing.
King Wu couldn't help but conjure up the image of a dazed young man in his teens.
A feeling of frustration arose in my heart.
"Is there any other news? Keep talking."
"Yes!" the spy said, "According to the investigation by brothers in the guild, a large number of troops in Feka are being transferred to the Holy City. Including the troops belonging to Dajing in the Holy City, the number is about 200,000."
"In addition, we also heard in the meeting that Master Wu from the Holy City took a boat to invite generals from various countries and invited other countries to watch the battle."
King Wu frowned deeply, "Is there anything else?"
"Gone."
"Stay back and collect a reward yourself."
The spy retreated, and King Wu's eyes showed confusion.
Inviting generals from all over the world to watch the battle is something I really don’t understand.
Is Da Jing so confident?
Or is it because of the old suspicion that Da Jing has completely gained the trust of other countries and jointly sends troops?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Other countries are definitely not as friendly to Da Jing.
Although the Holy City was captured, the power of the six major dioceses remained, and the core force of the church never suffered a serious blow.
Although those countries that cooperated with Da Jing were friendly to the new church, they never dared to express their opinions on the old pope.
After all, the influence of the Pope and the old church has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it cannot be completely reversed in a few years or more than ten years.
Once a position is firmly chosen, the country may be in turmoil.
While King Wu was thinking, the prince next to him said excitedly: "Father, we have been waiting for so many years to finally start a war with Da Jing. Now it is better to mobilize troops to the Holy City immediately."
"Da Jing is so stupid to station all his troops in the Holy City. Wouldn't this help us annihilate them in one fell swoop?"
"And the new Emperor Dajing is here in person. If we can capture him alive..."
"No." King Wu raised his hand to stop him, "No, there must be something wrong here."
"Ping'er went to sea a few years ago, but there is still no news. It is 80% that he was captured by the other party. Now that Dajing has suddenly come to the west, he must be aware of our existence. It is impossible for them to fight an unprepared battle. They must act in such a public manner. Weird." King Wu analyzed.
"What if the new emperor is mentally retarded?" Prince Li Pan asked, "After becoming the emperor, he will go his own way. It is a great success."
"My son remembers seeing him when he was a child. He didn't seem very smart. He was holding a wooden stick and beating flowers and plants in the palace, and he was shouting some incomprehensible words."
King Wu touched his chin and fell into deep thought again.
This is not impossible!
In his impression, Li Yuanzhao was indeed a bit stupid.
Every time we meet, she makes a fuss, and her brain is not fully developed.
But the time spent interacting with each other is too little. After so many years, this stupid kid may develop a second time and become smarter...
After thinking for a long time, King Wu said cautiously: "But Fang Zhengyi is not a fool. I remember that he and the prince used to be brothers and sisters, and I will not let him do stupid things."
"But after all, so many years have passed. Maybe the relationship between the two is not that deep anymore, and Fang Zhengyi is a civil servant and has no military skills..." Li Pan analyzed.
"That's enough!" King Wu sternly stopped him, "How can we have any luck in the war between the two countries?"
"The heroes in the world are like the crucian carp crossing the river, no one should be underestimated. My biggest regret in this life is that I failed to recruit Fang Zhengyi."
"This man's talents and intelligence are beyond the reach of ordinary people. When you encounter such a person, you must be cautious!"
There was a trace of panic on Li Pan's face, and he hurriedly said: "I am wrong, is there another possibility... There is something wrong with the Brotherhood's intelligence."
King Wu slowly shook his head.
The Brotherhood's intelligence over the years has been extremely reliable, with almost no inaccuracies.
Although the Brotherhood is not powerful, it has a wide range and strong business capabilities.
It really became a big help in his hands.
Over the years, it has become his most important source of information for understanding the intelligence outside the six major dioceses.
Although the money is not spent less, it is indeed worth the money spent!
"No matter whether the Brotherhood's intelligence is accurate or not, we can't advance rashly now, let alone press the army directly towards the Holy City."
"But we have been preparing for so many years!" Li Pan said eagerly, "The six major dioceses have been under strong rule, with so many bans, recruitment of troops all year round, and tax collection after 30 years. The six major dioceses are full of complaints, and the people are about to rebel. , this is the moment that needs catharsis, and there is no better opportunity than this."
"Father, we now have millions of troops, and the daily military expenditure is huge... We can last for another year at most, and we have reached the point where we have to move."
"Even if Lao Wu was captured by Da Jing and knew the situation on our side, so what? We are fighting locally. How many troops can they afford to use up? Da Jing has divine punishment weapons, and so do we! If father The emperor agrees, and I am willing to personally lead the troops to fight!"
"Shut up!" King Wu shot him coldly, "Are you leading troops? How many troops can you command? Can you lead two hundred thousand soldiers? Can you lead one hundred thousand soldiers?"
"I have been dreaming all day long, but now there is no general in the country who can command millions of soldiers, but you dare to talk nonsense."
Li Pan's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, but due to his father's majesty, he had no choice but to lower his head.
King Wu continued: "The lion must fight the rabbit with all his strength. We have an absolute advantage in military strength and cannot neglect the enemy in the slightest."
"I guess they will come down with a letter of challenge soon. Since the other party has invited generals from all over the world to watch the battle, we will wait and see what happens. We might as well let him have two cities first... wait until the enemy penetrates deeper before making any plans."
After King Wu finished speaking, he looked at Li Pan and said, "I know that you have been recruiting troops in the six major parishes over the years. This time, why not let you personally lead the troops to the front line to prepare for the enemy."
"Only bring 50,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city and test it. In addition to listening to the enemy's situation, we can lure the enemy deep into the city. Otherwise, we must not act rashly, otherwise I will deal with it according to military law!"
Li Pan's heart was beating wildly: "My son, take your orders!"
"Well... let's go. You go and inform the Brotherhood to continue to strengthen the investigation. We will also release more spies here to confirm."
After Li Pan left, the hall fell into silence.
King Wu put his hands behind his back and looked out of the palace expressionlessly... Suddenly a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
No matter what, it was finally here, and he had been looking forward to this day for so long.
He is no longer young and this is his last chance.
Six major dioceses, millions of soldiers! It's not just talk, but a real force of one million troops... For this reason, he has almost drained the six major dioceses.
Now, with the right time, right place, right people and the right people, it’s time to take advantage of the situation!
...
"Your Majesty, that's not how you hold it. The recoil of the submachine gun is huge. You don't have to hold it, you have to hold it down. Stand firm and shoot your mother!"
Bang bang bang bang!!!
