Wen Jin's letter was sent to the army, regarding Chen and Song, who wanted to send troops to aid Liang, which caused an uproar in the army.
Of course, the dispute is among senior military officers.
Some officers headed by Wei Yang were very angry when they learned what Chen and Song meant.
They were in Xiao Yuchen's coach's tent, their faces red with anger.
"Now, the morale of our team is at its peak! Our team will surely win!
"They see that I, Daliang, are going to win, and now they want to send troops to help Daliang... Bah!
"He's obviously here to pick up some bargains!
"Originally, I, Daliang, could annex Qi State alone, but now they are sending troops to divide Qi State into three parts!
"I, Daliang, have fought hard, but they want to share the results! Why is this?!"
Wei Yang almost slapped the table with Xiao Yuchen.
Although he resisted slapping the table, his face turned red, spittle flew everywhere, and his aura was very tyrannical.
However, other officers headed by Guo Jin did not agree with this view.
“DPRK and China sent envoys to lobby the two countries to help Liang, which was the key to Liang’s victory!
"General Wei, you can imagine this. If Chen and Song were on the sidelines all the time, and I, Daliang, could always occupy the 'right time, the right place and the right people'.
“Then this battle may take three to five years, or even longer, before Daliang can swallow up half of Qi’s country.
"But if Chen and Song are persuaded by Qi to send troops to help Qi attack Liang... what will happen to Daliang?"
Guo Jin didn't blush and spoke in a low voice.
"Ha! Why do you need to increase others' ambition and destroy your own prestige?"
Wei Yang said, "As long as Chen and Song are not stupid, they can see the strength of Liang.
"Why do they want to help Qi State, which has always been defeated? What benefits can it bring them by helping Qi State?
"If they were wise, they should stay away and not get involved!"
Guo Jin shook his head and said, "No..."
"Okay, don't talk nonsense to me!
"The imperial court sent envoys to lobby the two countries for help, which is simply unnecessary!
"Now that the matter has come to this, it's too late to say anything! Humph!"
Wei Yang waved his hand and interrupted Guo Jin with an unkind expression.
He cupped his hands and said, "I will lose my composure. Your Majesty, please forgive me! I will resign!"
Wei Yang faced Xiao Yuchen, his face still looked bad.
He led his troops out of the tent.
This group of generals were still discussing after leaving the tent.
"It's all the idea of the prince's kid and the queen's wife!
"What a woman's opinion! Long hair, short knowledge!
"The emperor shouldn't have been allowed to go on military expeditions for so long! Leave the court to the 'women and children'!"
"Now my actions in Daliang Chaotang will definitely turn into a joke in Tianlong Continent!
"Obviously we can win on our own, but now we are actively asking Chen and Song to get a share of the pie!
"Stupid! Ignorant! You are simply licking Chen Guo and Song Guo!
"Just watch! After the armies of Chen and Song march to the border and force Qi to surrender...
"They should put forward conditions! What about their military spending and their aid to Daliang! They must help supervise and restore the people's livelihood...
"Oh, they can give a lot of reasons to divide the benefits of Qi State! We are here to fight hard and fight to the death!
"Let these grandsons get a free advantage!"
The more Wei Yang talked, the angrier he became. Looking at his angry look, it seemed that he wished he could spit in Wen Jin's face.
The generals who shared his anger nodded in agreement.
"Originally, the spoils of war could be divided among us... but now we have to share them with Chen and Song..."
"It's so annoying!"
This atmosphere of dissatisfaction spread in the camp headed by Wei Yang.
Guo Jin reported all this to Xiao Yuchen without worry.
“I’m afraid if it spreads further, it will cause turmoil in the military.
"The soldiers below do not understand the overall situation, they know very little. Of course, they believe whatever their generals say.
"But now, General Wei and others cannot listen to advice at all..."
Xiao Yuchen nodded.
"I can understand his thoughts. He has been guarding the border for many years. Although it is difficult to advance the war, he has been winning in a small area.
"Compared with the monotonous border guarding, we can see the hope of 'conferring a title and leaving a name'.
"Even if this battle takes three to five years, as long as we win the final victory, it will be worth it."
Guo Jin frowned and said, "Then he never thought about what if..."
The word "lose" is unlucky.
Guo Jin shut up and swallowed his words.
Xiao Yuchen smiled and said, "There is a word called 'blind confidence' and 'blind arrogance'.
"It shows that people are 'blind' when they are overconfident and arrogant."
Guo Jin's brows furrowed even more tightly.
"Changing generals now... may not be appropriate, and it may easily arouse emotional turmoil among the soldiers below."
Xiao Yuchen waved his hand, "No need to bother, I have a countermeasure. General Guo just wait and see what happens."
Guo Jin raised his eyebrows.
Does the emperor have a way to reverse the "blindness" of Wei Yang and others?
But he didn't seem to find out what the emperor had done recently?
He seems to be just sitting in the tent and walking around outside...
"Report——"
This morning, the generals were having a meeting in coach Xiao Yuchen's tent.
Suddenly an urgent battle report arrived.
Behind him were two dusty scouts.
"Report to the Emperor! The scouts intercepted several secret letters and detected unusual movements!"
The messenger looked bad, panting, and sweating on his forehead.
Xiao Yuchen reached out and took the secret letter.
He unfolded it and looked at it. The more he looked at it, the uglier his face became.
The other generals stared at him silently.
But his face turned completely dark.
The other generals then exchanged glances with each other... What's going on?
Is there another change in the two countries' aid to Liang?
Or something happened in the palace?
Otherwise, the emperor had been smiling the past few days... Even just now, he looked cheerful.
Why did his face suddenly turn sour?
They didn't have to wait long to guess.
Xiao Yuchen threw the letter on the long table in front of everyone.
"Look!" He said with an angry look on his face.
Everyone was puzzled.
Wei Yang motioned to Guo Jin to pick it up and look at it.
Guo Jin picked it up but handed it to him first.
Wei Yang didn't give in. He quickly read the letter, first looking at ten lines...
"What?! This...this is impossible!
"What is meant is that helping Daliang is just the icing on the cake, but helping Qi is a timely help.
"The icing on the cake will bring little profit, and there is nothing left to divide up in the dilapidated Daqi!
"But if you provide help in the snow and destroy the beam, is it just a piece of fat?
"Is my beam just a piece of fat meat that can be slaughtered? My body is full of thorns!"
Wei Yang scolded him and continued to read the letter.
“Qi State no longer has the strength to share the power equally with Chen and Song.
"So if Chen and Song help Qi and destroy Daliang, Chen and Song will benefit even more, while Qi will only want to protect itself."
Wei Yang scolded while watching.
By the time he finished reading the letter, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"This is... a letter sent by the Qi State messenger to the Chen State, but was intercepted by the scouts on the way."
The courier said, "But they also sent more couriers to deliver the message via other routes."
Wei Yang gasped and gasped.
He is very angry...
But there was a passage in the letter that spoke to his heart...
