That day, Li Ye ordered his men to cut off the heads of the seventeen killers sent by the Imperial City, and asked the inn to send fast horses to the Imperial City.
At the same time, notifications are sent to the other three domains.
Anyone from the five regions who has not received the tiger talisman and sends troops from the imperial city will be allowed to return to each region within half a month!
Otherwise, when the southern Xinjiang army returns to the court, they will be executed!
All the palace lords from various regions who support their troops into the imperial city are required to withdraw from the imperial city within half a month!
Otherwise, when the army returns to the city, they will be executed!
Anyone who dares to stop the army from returning to the court, whether they are the city lord, the palace lord, or the royal family members, will be punished!
This declaration of war was stamped with the seals of the Imperial Generalissimo and the Imperial Imperial Advisor.
Li Ye officially declared war on the entire five regions, except the Nanxuan Region.
Even Yang Kaiyi, who was writing, had cold sweat streaming down his back. He seemed to have seen the bloody storm in the other four regions.
He finally understood what Li Ye said: "Let them see!"
As soon as the declaration of war came out, the whole world was shocked!
The dynasty, which has not yet received the heads of the seventeen killers, looks like the end is coming, and all the officials have a desperate mentality to protect it.
They did not yet know about the assassination of the Generalissimo.
But when they heard that the Generalissimo and the National Preceptor were personally leading the army back to the imperial city, everyone was shocked.
As for the palace lords and city lords of the other four regions, everyone is in danger. Many of them have already taken refuge with the second prince and sent their own troops to the imperial city to serve him.
As soon as the declaration of war came out, they were forced to make a choice!
Either you die or I die!
And the southern Xinjiang army, which had just repelled an army of more than 200,000 grassland cavalrymen, returned to the court like a torrent of steel. Who dared to resist? Who dares to resist!
Kill them all!
As soon as these two words are spoken, it will be the result of a fight to the death!
Only Hao Da, the proprietor of the Dongxuan Territory, patted his chest, looked at Li Mingzhu and said, "The eldest lady is still wise and let him contact Marshal Dao Dao and the national master early. No, he has escaped a disaster!"
"Immediately, ask the deputy generals of the Imperial City to find a way to bring the five thousand soldiers back." Looking at the deputy general Xia Hu behind him, Dongfang Haotian said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Lord, the general will definitely do something good." Xia Hu followed the order and turned around to leave.
"Is this appropriate?" Li Mingzhu asked with a frown, "Is the army in southern Xinjiang really invincible?"
"It's not that the army in southern Xinjiang is invincible, but that the general marshal and the national division are invincible. They can settle the war in southern Xinjiang in less than a year, and then declare war on the world's prefectures in the blink of an eye. If they don't have the confidence, will they dare? ?
Dongfang Haotian seemed to have seen the bloody storm in the imperial city.
In the imperial city, the new emperor sitting on the golden palace looked at Linghu Kuangyu and Youxiang and others and said, "He is going to start a war with us?"
As the new emperor, he never expected that his gentle brother would have such a cold moment.
Linghu Kuangyu looked at him and asked carefully: "No, are they playing a scheming game?
The Right Prime Minister looked at him and shook his head, saying: "They dare to declare war on the Five Realms, what's the matter?" In his heart, he regretted it for a long time.
There was no news about his son, and he had already had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Follow the five regions and order the army to enter the imperial city!" the new emperor said while looking at his highness's ministers.
"Without the Tiger Talisman, I'm afraid it would be difficult to mobilize the armies of the five regions." Wei Xian, the general of the Hussars who was standing under His Highness, replied calmly.
"Then you can't just wait to die here! The decree has been declared, and all palace lords from all regions who do not follow the decree and send troops will be punished for resisting the decree and disobeying it!"
The new emperor said coldly.
The right prime minister glanced at the left prime minister and said calmly: "Then follow the emperor's wishes."
Zuo Xiang half-closed his eyes and said nothing, letting you do whatever you want in his mind.
The big eunuch also had his eyes half-closed and bent slightly, so that no one could see his expression.
The whole hall was filled with lifelessness.
The new emperor Xia Yunjie turned out to be like Li Ye, forcing the palace masters of the five regions to choose a path.
...
In the Nanyun City Lord's Mansion, Li Ye looked at the eldest prince lying on the chair and smiled: "Now we are the enemy of the world!"
After drinking Li Ye's concoction mixed with a piece of Tianshan snow lotus, the eldest prince detoxified that night and was currently lying down recovering from the arrow wound on his chest.
He looked at Li Ye and smiled: "So what?"
Xia Wutong, who was standing by, looked at the two of them, frowned and said, "Is there going to be a war next?"
Mu Mu, who was sitting nearby and eating melon seeds, looked at her and said with a smile, "Why, are you scared?"
Xia Wutong was stunned, looked at her and smiled: "I forgot about you, the little devil."
Mu Mu gave her a blank look and said, "Do you think those people will wait for us to go back?"
Li Ye, who was sitting aside, saw the eldest prince lightly frowning and couldn't help but ask: "What are you worried about?"
The eldest prince did not expect that his thoughts were so delicate. He looked at him and said with a smile: "If we want to fight, people will inevitably die. This time, they are all our own people."
Li Ye snorted, obviously dissatisfied with the eldest prince's kindness, stared at him and said: "You almost died in their hands, if I didn't have those medicines in my hands."
"I just can't bear it." The eldest prince sighed and said softly.
"We need to cut through the mess quickly!" Li Ye said in a condensed voice.
"I didn't expect to reach this point." The eldest prince, who has always been kind, is as soft-hearted as the emperor said and is not suitable for power.
Li Ye did not continue to discuss with him, but thought about his own plan. In a few days, Wang Tianhua and the armies from the three towns would return. Adding the existing army in Nanyun City, he could summon at least 80,000 people. Army.
In his original plan, only fifty thousand was enough.
But now the assassination of the eldest prince happened, which deeply stimulated the fierceness in his heart, and then he decided to declare war on the five regions.
The 80,000-strong army plus the arrows built by Nanyun City day and night were enough for him to command this army to quell the civil strife in the imperial city.
Even if the worst happens and encounters a siege battle, the thousand siege slaves possessed by the southern Xinjiang army will definitely be a killer weapon that scares all the governments in the five regions.
The Southern Xinjiang army is still gathered together, so the Five Regions and the Mansion naturally have no information about the weapons preparation of the Southern Xinjiang army. This is Li Ye's trump card.
"If they don't block our way back, we will naturally have less killing karma!" Li Ye didn't want his hands to be stained with killing karma again.
But for the sake of the emperor's entrustment, and in order to turn the kind-hearted general in front of him into a qualified king, he had to be ruthless.
"I hope the palace masters in each domain can understand the general trend and not block our way back to the court." The eldest prince could only hope that the palace masters could be frightened by Li Ye's declaration of war.
Based on his understanding of the Imperial Master, this journey will definitely be bloody.
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at each other in silence.
After a long time, Li Ye suddenly smiled faintly, but he didn't say anything after laughing. Instead, he picked out a handful of melon seeds in front of Shou Mumu and started to eat them gently.
Xia Wutong frowned slightly, looked at him and asked, "Junior brother, why are you laughing?"
Li Ye looked at her, slowly swallowed the melon seeds in his mouth, clapped his hands, looked at the three of them and said, "When will the Generalissimo's body be able to go on the road with the army?"
The eldest prince was silent for a moment and replied softly: "At most, three days."
"Then keep it for two more days, five days later!" Li Ye said quietly.
Xia Wutong looked at him in surprise and asked, "Is it so fast? It's no joke to have an army traveling. Are we all ready?"
Mu Mu looked at her and smiled: "What are you preparing for? Just bring weapons and food and grass, right?"
The eldest prince and Li Yesiang glanced at each other and immediately laughed.
The two of them have already had the experience of marching through three towns. Wouldn't it be a trivial matter to do it again?
While Mu Mu and Xia Wutong were chatting happily, Tang Qiuyu led Yang Kaiyi and Zhuge Ming from Tianfeng City in.
"Generalissimo." Zhuge Ming did not call Li Ye first, but shouted to the eldest prince. A trace of worry could be heard in his voice.
"Hello Master Zhuge, you are such a rare guest!" The eldest prince sat up on the recliner, while Xia Wutong helped him.
"Where is the Grand Marshal? I originally wanted to visit the Grand Marshal and the Imperial Preceptor." Zhuge Ming was also a shrewd man and replied without losing the opportunity.
"Master Zhuge is so polite." Li Ye said with a faint smile.
In Li Ye's plan, Zhuge Ming is an indispensable figure, especially in the Nanxuan Domain.
"Master Imperial Master, I rushed here as soon as I received your letter." Zhuge Ming also had a tacit understanding with Li Ye.
Li Ye glanced at him and asked, "Did the Imperial City declare you? You are the master of Nanxuan Territory! You must know that it is your decision here."
"The Imperial Master is joking, you are fighting against the cavalry of the grassland, can I do such an unethical thing?" Not long after the battle in southern Xinjiang, Zhuge Ming is now the shrewdest palace master in the five regions.
Li Ye grinned and ordered Mumu to boil water and make tea.
"I'll just wait for you to come and explain the affairs of the three towns to you and City Lord Yang, and we will command the Imperial City!" Li Ye looked at him and said quietly.
"It's so fast, Imperial Master, are you sure?" Zhuge is a smart man, and he will never ask questions that he knows he shouldn't ask.
The eldest prince had taken the medicine for a few days. His face was much rosier and his energy was much better. Looking at Zhuge Ming, he replied on Li Ye's behalf: "Our Imperial Master never does anything he is not prepared for!"
Zhuge Ming thought for a moment, glanced at Yang Kaiyi, and continued to ask: "I heard that the National Preceptor wants to give us the task of rebuilding the three towns?"
"There is no need to rebuild. You can tell the merchants and people in the three towns to go home!... You just need to do a good job." Li Ye told the situation of the three towns.
Zhuge Ming nodded and said with a smile: "This is a good thing. The two of us will definitely do a good job in this matter."
Li Ye nodded and said: "The trading market must be well constructed and well managed. This is a major event for the stability of southern Xinjiang!" Li Ye said this sentence deliberately.
"The money you spent will be paid to you in full when the generalissimo returns to the imperial city." As long as he returns to the imperial city, other things will not be a problem in Li Ye's eyes.
Zhuge Ming was not surprised, as if he had already known the result.
Li Ye nodded with satisfaction, it was easier to deal with smart people.
"Stabilizing Southern Xinjiang and even the entire Nanxuan Territory is something that the two adults will worry about in the future." The eldest prince said with a smile.
Don't worry, Generalissimo, we will definitely live up to your expectations.
In the eyes of Zhuge Ming and Yang Kaiyi, the generalissimo in front of them was about to become the new emperor of the five regions, and he was the emperor with the most stable power. They would not be able to do anything with peace of mind.
You know, the wolf-like national teacher is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
When the second assassin attacked, the Imperial Master sent the heads back to the imperial city.
Anyone with a brain would know what the Imperial Master is going to do next.
"Do we need to send troops from the southern region? We can still gather 30,000 to 50,000 troops." In order to show his loyalty, Zhuge Ming asked the two of them.
The eldest prince glanced at Li Ye, who shook his head and replied: "As long as you two take good care of the Southern Territory and don't cause trouble, it will be a great achievement.
There are already 80,000 soldiers who have been on the battlefield and can fight together. Where does Li Ye need those new soldiers who have never been on the battlefield?
He doesn't have time to train anymore.
The 100,000 troops on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang are true tiger and wolf troops that have experienced the baptism of blood and fire.
"It's rare for us to get together. The eldest prince is injured and cannot drink. I will accompany you two tonight." Seeing that the trouble in southern Xinjiang was solved, Li Ye was in a good mood.
Zhuge Ming glanced at Yang Kaiyi, and the two of them replied in unison: "But it depends on the arrangement of the national master."
Seeing this, Tang Qiuyu was secretly frightened. In just a short time, the little boy who was young and careless had grown up to the point where even the master of the Nanxuan Domain had to listen to his advice.
