"They are too impatient. I have told him that as a strategist, he should not act on impulse, but he always loses his mind."
Qi Yuan took up his pen and drew a red line with cinnabar behind the border army.
Xu Mingyi looked at the map and the battle report and it was immediately clear.
"Once a war begins, there will be no room for too much mercy. The fact that Yu Kaiping's team was scattered does not mean that the stragglers have surrendered. Baiyun City has been captured. Has Xiao Jing been defeated?"
Qi Yuan turned around and pulled out the general order from under the drawings on the desk. The seal had been stamped on it.
All Xu Mingyi's words after receiving the military order were drowned by Qi Yuan's insightful eyes.
"We have been training with firearms for several months, and it's time to test the results."
Qi Yuan smiled warmly, looked in the direction of Wuzhou, and raised his hand with an ink-colored pen to draw a black marching route.
"Neither Xiao Jing nor Yu Kaiping are fools. In the battle between trapped beasts, they will use all their strength and tactics. Human life is cold on the battlefield.
Countless people left the city during the two fires. Breaking them into pieces and bypassing the army and going deep into the cauldron to extract wages was their only chance of victory. "
Qi Yuan put away his pen, looked at the map and put down his pen with satisfaction.
Xu Mingyi frowned slightly. He didn't need to say anything. Even if he was in Lin Jing's position, he would make this choice. They all hoped to welcome the emperor back to Kyoto as soon as possible. The preciousness of time was particularly obvious to Qi Yuan.
"Although Xiao Jing and his two men have a very deep layout, using two passes to lure the enemy deeper is a dangerous strategy, but it can also be regarded as a good move to draw fuel from the bottom of the cauldron.
I believe that Lin Jing's intelligence is not unaware of it, but he wants Kyoto too much. Yongzhou City and Baiyun City seem to be stable, but those soldiers are not a scattered Mongolian people. At the end of this trip south, let Cheng Caitai lead 20,000 troops.
The rebel alliance in the south will not sit still and wait for death when they know that I am seriously ill. There will be no peace in Yongzhou, and the rebel army is almost here at the marching speed. "
Xu Mingyi's eyes were firm when he heard this: "The training of the Musketeers Battalion has been mastered, and according to His Majesty's plan, all 10,000 elite soldiers are now equipped with new weapons.
The Yongzhou city defense has also been reinforced. Even with firearms and explosives, the city cannot be easily broken.
There is sufficient food and military equipment in the city. But is it too risky to let Cheng Shen take the new army south at this time? The lethality and defensive power of five thousand cavalry are enough to push away the ambushed skirmishers. "
Qi Yuan looked at the window sill, and the eagle had brought the news he wanted.
"Don't be too optimistic. With your intelligence, you should be able to collect information from the intelligence sent back and get closer to the truth.
The enemy we face cannot be judged by common sense. They also know the firearms we have, and they know more.
After all, the rebels want to kill me, and the stragglers also want to turn things around. Their cooperation is inevitable. Don't forget that these explosives came from Lin Li. Those rebels were the same type of people as Lin Li. Otherwise, how could Xiao Jing dare to let a mere 20,000 people block the supply from the North and Yongzhou?
You underestimated the rebels' determination to kill me at all costs. What they want is not the world, but me. "
Although Xu Mingyi had already guessed it, he found it unbelievable at this moment.
"Why did Xiao Jing come into contact with the rebels so early? The war in the river realm is no less of a threat than ours.
Aren't those rebel leaders afraid of riots when they leave in droves? They are also enemies, I don’t understand. "
Qi Yuan sneered, of course Xiao Jing was not stupid, he was just seeking skin from a tiger.
“When there are two hungry wolves coveting your flesh, both the left and the right will die. Do you still need to care about which wolf you die first?
Xiao Jing knew that this game of chess was dead, and he had to overturn it if he wanted to win.
By getting rid of us, he can not only free up his hands to concentrate his forces against the rebels, but he can also take the opportunity to harvest weapons such as firearms and explosives while solving an opponent. "
Qi Yuan put down his pen, looked at the location of Kyoto and smiled gently.
"What's more, the rebel leaders have come to Yongzhou. The rebels are leaderless and naturally scattered. The war in the river boundary can break the deadlock and get a turn for the better."
Qi Yuan handed the note from An Wu to Xu Mingyi.
"The leader of the rebels has not been seen for many days, and the fighting in the river realm has stopped. It is feared that the two have cooperated."
After reading this, Xu Mingyi frowned, feeling more and more that it would be risky to let Cheng Caitai lead 20,000 troops to leave Yongzhou. The only more than 10,000 troops left in Yongzhou City may not be enough to deal with it.
Qi Yuan put away the map and information on the table and tied the prepared copper pipes.
"It's just a rotten body. If they want it so much, just give them the opportunity to take it. I just gave them the opportunity, and it's up to me to decide whether they can grasp it or not.
We all know that time waits for no one. Why bother to fish for it when you have the opportunity to catch it all? "
Xu Mingyi is a sober and smart man. If this battle can really wipe out all the rebels, then Lin Jing and others will have no chance of attacking Kyoto and Cheng Caitai will wipe them out. After capturing Kyoto and killing Ye Zhongjing, the army will be disheartened. The rebels in the river realm will naturally have no leader. Not enough to be afraid of.
If he guessed correctly, the rumors of miracles planned by His Majesty would spread throughout the Xuan Kingdom in the next few days.
When people's hearts are distracted, gods become their sustenance, and to win over those rebels, all it takes is to allow the people to survive.
In troubled times, all the people want is a chance to survive.
Only one battle can lay the foundation for world peace. This is indeed a unique opportunity. What's more, if you miss this time, will your Majesty's body be able to wait for the next opportunity?
Since he wanted to return to the capital, he also wanted peace in the world. Although the disease wiped out the young emperor's martial arts and body, it could not break his pursuit and ambition.
Xu Mingyi remained silent for a long time and finally swallowed his words of admonition.
"I don't understand why those rebels came to Yongzhou. The battle at the river boundary is obviously an advantage."
"You already have the answer in your mind."
Xu Mingyi looked calm and understood in his heart, is this the root cause of His Majesty's serious illness?
It is difficult to deal with the supernatural power of people outside the world, so is that why Lin Jing is so eager to place everything on the unpredictable destiny?
Xu Mingyi understood that he didn't need to say anything anymore, so he became more determined to resign quietly.
The moon sets in the west and the sun rises in the east.
When the eagle soared high, the troops in Yongzhou City also moved south under the watchful eyes of the people of Yongzhou.
Qi Yuan, who was wearing a dragon robe, looked completely different from usual. The direction of the king's sword was the direction of the army. The unparalleled miracle gathered a powerful centripetal force. Everyone believed that the emperor's army would once again create supreme glory and be invincible.
Facing the rising sun, the king's flag was raised high, and the long sword was unsheathed with a menacing light.
"Go to war!"
Imperial orders circled the army.
"We must win! We must win! We must win!"
The people of Yongzhou City gathered here and worked together to create a heavy but glorious imperial crown.
Xu Wenwu stood next to Qi Yuan and felt the strong heartbeat in his chest. He was so excited that his face turned red and he followed the soldiers and civilians in shouting. At this moment, he was just infected by the atmosphere. Only when he actually goes out to fight can he understand the glory behind such a scene. Extremely heavy.
At this moment, everyone was shouting at the top of their lungs, and the sound was getting louder and louder, as if they were going to completely overthrow this troubled world.
Accompanied by the rising sun and the dust of horse hooves, the emperor's army set out again.
Mo Shenyan and Xu Mingyi looked at the city wall for a long time.
"Is there really a destiny?"
Xu Mingyi looked at Qi Yuan's tall and straight figure with determination.
“What the people want is destiny.”
Qi Yuan created a miracle in the north and brought hope for a peaceful world to all parts of Yongzhou, so he was destiny and the general trend.
