"Your Majesty, assemble the army!"
The King of Chu gave a fierce order, and the entire palace hall was in awe. They all knew that the Chu Kingdom had not organized its army with such fanfare for a long time.
In the past, the dignitaries of Chu State controlled the court, and it was difficult to organize the army.
Now, the crisis of annihilation brought about by Da Qin will make the entire Chu court nervous and take the opportunity to reorganize the army.
However, everyone standing here is not a simple person. They naturally know how big a disturbance this order from King Chu Han will cause.
Once implemented, the entire Chu region will be filled with bloodshed.
"My dear friends, I am your backing. Reorganize your army immediately. Otherwise, if the Qin people go south, you will all lose your glory and wealth."
A flash of light flashed across Xiong Han's eyes. He knew in his heart that these powerful people held most of the power, but they did not want to plan for Chu.
This time, he will force these people to vomit out some of what they have eaten in the past.
Otherwise, how is he, the King of Chu, different from a puppet?
"promise."
With a nod of agreement, the ministers walked out of the palace one after another. Li Yuan didn't think much, but the other ministers had a lot of thoughts in their minds.
Xiong Han's move was basically cutting flesh off their bodies, and they would naturally not be satisfied.
"Sir, my father is celebrating his birthday. Let's get together?" Zhao Shao said to Qu Ao who was standing aside.
"Okay, I'm just about to propose a toast to my uncle!" Qu Ao nodded with a smile.
"Go together, go together!"
Then, everyone followed.
Everyone knows that the father of Zhaoshao's family has been dead for ten years. As long as everyone goes, even if there is no birthday banquet, it will become a birthday banquet.
King Chu Xiong Han's move made them feel tremendous pressure. As old political lords, they clearly realized that King Chu's edict was to cut their flesh.
For the rich and powerful of the family, this is naturally intolerable.
If King Chu Xiong Han was as heroic as King Zhuang, they would just bow their heads. Now King Chu is just a puppet.
With the gathering of dignitaries from the Chu State, the news naturally reached the residence of Ling Yin Li Yuan immediately.
"Your Majesty, now that many dignitaries have gathered together, I'm afraid that there will be a storm in Shang Ying." A glint flashed in the eyes of the counselor under his command, and he said towards Li Yuan.
Hearing this, Li Yuan nodded: "Your Majesty's heart is good, but this move is a bit too hasty."
"As soon as he was introduced as a new king, and his foundation in the government and the public was not yet stable, he suddenly announced such an edict, which will definitely irritate the powerful officials in the government and the public."
"Ren Ni, keep an eye on the powerful people!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Ren Ni turned around and left. But at the moment he turned around, a glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, and the smile on his lips became even brighter.
........
In the tent.
"General Ying, our people have sent news that the King of Qi and the King of Chu have issued orders to organize the army and improve military affairs..."
Hearing this, Zhao Shu had a look of solemnity in his eyes, stared at the map for a long time, and said: "The people from the Pedestrian Station have already set off. Mr. Yao Jia will naturally solve the problem for us."
"There should be no trouble in Qi State. It's just that the Chu land is hidden, so our people can keep an eye on it."
"If you have any news, report it to me immediately. A new king will face all the powerful people in the world. Not everyone is as talented as the king."
"There is a high probability that something will happen in Chu Land."
"promise."
He nodded in agreement. Although he didn't know why Zhao Shu made such a judgment, it was clear that Zhao Shu's judgment had never been wrong from the beginning.
What's more, as the master of the Hidden Palace, Zhao Shu, as the deacon of the dark veins, had to obey Zhao Shu's orders.
As soon as the thought came to this point, Yinwei left quickly.
After taking a sip of tea, Zhao Shu also stood up and headed towards the Chinese shogunate.
"The last general has met the superior general." Entering the shogunate, Zhao Shu saluted Wang Jian.
"It's coming!"
Wang Jian nodded, and the other generals saluted Zhao Shu: "The last general has seen the winning general!"
"Um."
When the generals greeted each other and calm returned to the shogunate, Wang Jian spoke again and said: "Our biggest problem in destroying Yan this time is not Yan, but Qi Chu."
"According to various investigations and information from Heibingtai, Yan State's armaments are slack, and all 150,000 of the country's elite troops are deployed in Liaodong."
"Although it is said to be an army of 300,000 people, 150,000 of them are guarding various parts of the royal capital. They can only be regarded as a mob."
"Of course, with the strength of Yan State and the young and strong men in the country, we can barely gather an army of five to six hundred thousand."
"However, the young men gathered in a hurry are not suitable for the battlefield and can only serve as civilian husbands."
"So, the Yan State has a fighting strength of 300,000, of which at least 100,000 troops are needed to defend Liaodong and defend against foreign tribes such as Donghu."
"The army we need to face is about 200,000. Of course, this is a battle to destroy the country. We cannot rule out the possibility that King Yan will mobilize all the elites to fight in a rage."
Having said this, Wang Jian chuckled: "But even if King Yan mobilizes all the elites, it will only be a drop in the bucket for our army."
"Without the intervention of external forces, our country, the Qin Dynasty, will definitely win this battle, and Yan will join the Qin Dynasty."
"However, Yan State is close to the two great kingdoms of Qi and Chu. Neither Qi State nor Chu State can be compared to Yan State."
"One of them is a powerful country in Shandong and the other is a powerful country in the south. Their national strength is no less than that of Zhao. Once these two countries intervene, Yan Yan will not be able to win easily."
Suddenly, Wang Jian spoke to Zhao Shu and said, "General Ying, what do you think of this battle?"
After hearing this, Zhao Shu pondered for a long time and then said: "What the general said is absolutely true. Qi Chu is the key to the battle to destroy Yan."
"Without Qi Chu sending troops to intervene, Ji Yan would have been dead for eight hundred years just relying on the Yan army!"
"However, Mr. Yao Jia from the Pedestrian Department will take action. Qi and Chu are not a big problem. Qi and Qin are an alliance and have been friends for generations. Qi will not join the war easily."
"As long as the pedestrian station promises huge profits, King Qi will definitely watch it with cold eyes."
At this point, Zhao Shu changed his subject and said in a faint tone, "I just received news from the Hidden Palace that King Xiong Han of Chu ordered the army to be reorganized."
"The King of Chu is newly established, and the dignitaries of Chu State are powerful. Li Yuan alone may not be able to suppress them."
"I have asked Yin Gong to keep an eye on Chu State. If my predictions are correct, there will be big changes in Shang Ying soon."
"Once there is a big change in Shangying, it means that it is impossible for the Chu army to intervene in the war..."
As soon as these words came out, the generals were shocked and couldn't help but look at Zhao Shu.
Zhao Shu analyzed all this with just one sentence, which was really terrifying.
Taking a sip of herbal tea, Wang Jian stared at Zhao Shu closely and said word by word: "General Ying, what do you think is the possibility of a big change in Shang Ying?"
"Seventy percent!"
Zhao Shu smiled and said in a faint tone: "There are rumors in Shangyingfang that King Chu Xiong Han is not his own son..."
