This can be regarded as a poisonous plan.
The "Lingguo Cavalry" burned and killed Xuanguo villages, provoked the Lingxuan War, and created favorable conditions for our country to pacify the northern Xinjiang.
If Qin attacks Huan, Xiao Yuan asks King Xuan to help contain Lingguo. King Xuan may agree, but he will definitely face opposition in the country. Instead of doing this, it is better to trick Xuanguo.
Xiao Yuan is not an indecisive person, and those who achieve great things are not kind to women. He quickly realized the feasibility of this strategy and immediately said: "This strategy can be implemented."
"I am Wang Yingming." Jia You immediately bowed down.
This simple discussion in the study room basically allowed Xiao Yuan to decide on the matter of attacking Huan. However, a war cannot be fought immediately. The mobilization of troops, the transportation of grain, grass and ordnance, the appointment of commanders and generals, and the participation of military advisers. Where to march, which troops should arrive where within the specified time, etc., these all need to be deployed.
After talking to Shangguan Wenruo, Xiao Yuan immediately summoned Liang Yuan.
The latter rushed over, saluted, and stood respectfully below.
Xiao Yuan didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point: "Mobilize the elite of the capital guards camp, disguise as a caravan, enter the Lingxuan border, then change into the armor of the Lingguo cavalry, and sweep the Xuanguo villages."
"Wei Chen takes orders." Liang Yuan was shocked and couldn't help but said: "But Your Majesty, it's easy to disguise yourself as a caravan, but the armor of the spirit cavalry is difficult to carry. If you pass the customs and are investigated, there may be trouble."
"Put it among the goods. Don't worry, I will give you a customs clearance warrant for Qin and Xuan. Unless there are special circumstances, Xuan will not check your caravan." Xiao Yuandao.
"In this case, I must complete my mission." Liang Yuan saluted seriously.
Later, Xiao Yuan wrote two more orders, one was passed to the army, and the other was passed to Liangzhou. He secretly ordered Li Yong, the commander of Liangzhou, to dispatch envoys to Liangzhou, preparing to march from Liangdi to Qinhuan's front line after the combat deployment was completed. Transport grain and grass.
The next day there was a court meeting.
Peng Shuang and other senior generals were ordered to enter the court.
Before going to court, on the way into the main hall, seeing them, a civil servant couldn't help but come up to him, "Isn't General Peng training his troops in the army?"
"The king summoned him and he was ordered to enter the court." Peng Shuang said with a smile.
"Oh..." Some civil servants around him couldn't help but look at each other.
Entering the court meeting hall, the ministers stood on the left and right. In terms of rank, Peng Shuang and others were very far forward on the left.
Before the king arrived, many civil servants were whispering to each other and talking in low voices. They were just saying that the high-ranking generals had been transferred over, and they were afraid that the war was approaching.
Not long after, Xiao Yuan appeared and walked to the king's case. The ministers immediately stopped talking and knelt down on the ground, shouting loudly: "See your Majesty, I will be king for ten thousand years -"
"Get back on your feet." Xiao Yuan waved his hand casually and took a seat on the throne.
"Thank you, Your Majesty——"
When people stood up, he glanced at the generals and said straight to the point: "All the generals must have heard about Master Yang's murder. Qin will not give up on this matter! Neither will I!"
After hearing this, Su Yi immediately stood up and said sternly: "Huan's army did not take our country seriously at all. This is intolerable! I suggest that we raise troops to attack Huan immediately!"
The commander-in-chief and counselors all suggested that the northern border should be determined first, and then go to the south of the Yangtze River. The strategic goal was clear, and Xiao Yuan no longer had any doubts. However, just as he was about to speak, Yan Ming stood up and said: "Your Majesty, war is not a trivial matter. , Master Yang was killed, although it was done by Huan Jun, but we may be able to solve it through diplomatic means."
"Master Yan, what are you talking about!" Peng Shuang stood up and said angrily: "A third-rank minister of our country was killed by an enemy country. Do you just turn a blind eye like this!?"
"It's not about turning a blind eye, but using diplomatic means to profit from it. There is no need to start a war." Yan Mingdao.
The so-called "not in his position, not in charge of his affairs", Yan Ming is not a traitor, and there is nothing wrong with his ideas. It is just that on the strategic issue of unifying the north, this is an opportunity to send troops.
Peng Shuang also immediately retorted: "What kind of diplomatic means is just a slap in the face between literati, and it cannot solve the problem! In my opinion, if you want to avenge this, you must attack and destroy the Huan Kingdom!"
These words reached Xiao Yuan's heart. He immediately pointed at Peng Shuang and said excitedly: "The general is right! This is not as simple as killing my minister! It is bullying our Qin country!"
"Please give the order, Your Majesty! I am willing to be the vanguard!" Peng Shuang shouted in shock and clasped his fists.
"The last general invites you to fight!"
"The last general invites you to fight!"
Immediately afterwards, all the generals present stood up.
When a group of civil servants saw this, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Yan Ming moved the corners of his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
"Okay!" Xiao Yuan was delighted, and then subconsciously looked at Liu Yuzhi, because he needed to know the prime minister's attitude. Regardless of military and national affairs, the opinions of the prime minister can be imagined.
The latter noticed his gaze, understood in his heart, and immediately raised his hands and said: "Master Yang died in an unknown manner. Huan Guo cannot shirk this responsibility. I agree with the king to send troops."
"Okay!" Xiao Yuan stood up directly, looked around and said, "Today, the court will discuss the matter of sending troops to Huan Kingdom!"
"Generals, obey the order!"
"Assign Su Yi as General Pingbei."
"I obey the order!" The latter immediately came out.
"Peng Shuang is the general pioneer of Pingbei."
"Get the order!" The latter also came out.
"Lin Chu is General Anyuan."
"Goldman Sachs is a former military deputy general."
"Ning Zhan is the general of the Chinese army."
"Xu Rong is the left guard."
"Nie Xing is the right guard."
"Shangguan Wenruo is joining the army."
"Jia You offered wine to the military advisor."
"Tian Shu is the leader of the accompanying army."
"Du Chang is Secretary of Dianjun..."
The generals appointed in this court are all important positions in the army. As Xiao Yuan read the names one by one, many civil and military officials were already listed in the center of the hall.
After ordering the generals, he also stood above and said: "The Qinzhou camp will mobilize the troops soon. The generals of each department will go down immediately to prepare for the pre-war deployment. After I go on the expedition, the prime minister will temporarily take charge of the government, and the officials will perform their duties. ."
Seeing this scene, everyone knew that the king had made a decision and it could not be changed.
Everyone also saluted in unison and said in unison: "I will obey the king's order——"
The Qin State was already preparing for war. A few days later, just when Xiao Yuan was about to issue a royal order and lead his army out of the customs, Huan Envoy arrived in Qinzhou.
Out of diplomatic etiquette, Xiao Yuan met him at the palace, but during the conversation, he clearly told Envoy Huan that the Qin State's attitude towards Yang Qing'an's murder must be explained to the Huan State.
The first condition is to hand over Huan Jun general Ji Ao.
But now Huan Guo is still searching for him. If he can't be caught, he can't be handed over, and the matter can no longer be discussed.
Huanshi had no choice, because the Qin State was arguing with reason and was not causing trouble for no reason. He could only temporarily resign and write an urgent letter urging the royal court to catch Ji Ao quickly before he could make trouble again.
