As the night grew darker, Chen Mu gathered his confidants in the mansion to plan follow-up actions against Su Ye.
However, a sudden loud noise broke the tranquility.
Chen Mu panicked and immediately sent personnel to investigate.
The subordinate hurriedly reported that a body suddenly appeared outside the mansion door.
"Sir, this person is a subordinate you sent to Wentian Building to inquire about the news."
The content of the report allows even the dullest person to understand Wentianlou's warning.
When Chen Mu heard this, his face instantly turned pale, and he sat on the chair in frustration, his heart filled with fear and anger.
He realized that if he had known this, he should not have believed in the so-called reputation of the best building in the world.
However, now that he has tried all strategies, Su Ye's status in the Yan court is still at its peak.
Like a sharp blade, it cut into his heart.
He understood that he was asking for all the consequences.
He underestimated Su Ye and underestimated Wentianlou's strength.
Undoubtedly, the current Su Ye and Wentian Tower are beyond Chen Mu's ability to compete.
Therefore, what happened today forced Chen Mu to endure this grievance like swallowing a fly.
Chu State.
Qi's infringement of Chu's border has become increasingly intensified, apparently deliberately provoking Chu.
"Your Majesty, the Qi State invaded the Jialing Pass, the border fortress of Da Chu, and even burned the flag of Da Chu on the city wall!"
"Such behavior is intolerable!"
"It's unbearable!"
Unfortunately, the border guard at Jialing Pass suffered a fierce attack from Qi's cavalry. After going through many hardships, he finally survived.
Like a bereaved dog, he knelt in the court hall in panic and begged the empress Chu Muxue to send troops to retreat from the enemy.
Not only were the border fortresses attacked, but alarms were also sent out in some cities.
This means that Qi's iron hoof has approached the hinterland of Chu.
The people on the border were devastated by the war, their fields were destroyed, and their homes were occupied.
Memorials asking for help arrived like snow in winter, filling Chu Muxue's imperial study room.
Chu Muxue sat on the dragon chair with a gloomy expression.
She knew very well that this was Qi State showing its strength to her and trying to shake Chu State's position.
This is an out-and-out provocation!
"Your Majesty, the Chu State's border defenders are no longer able to withstand the Qi State's offensive. If we don't send troops, I'm afraid Jialing Pass will be difficult to defend!"
The border guard appealed again.
"Pass my decree and order all the soldiers and horses from all over the country to urgently assemble to prepare for war against Qi."
Chu Muxue's tone was cold and unwavering.
Above the court, the ministers were shocked and knelt down one after another to accept the order.
"Your Majesty is wise! I, the great Chu, will be able to repel the invaders and protect the country!"
"Swear to the death to fight for Chu!"
"Swear to the death to fight for Chu!"
"Swear to the death to fight for Chu!"
For a time, in the court hall, the officials were full of fighting spirit and vowed to defend the country's territory.
Under Chu Muxue's instructions, armies from all over Chu State quickly gathered to prepare for the war with Qi State.
Thanks to Su Ye's careful management over the years, the Chu State's army is strong and has a strong foundation.
In just one week, an army of 300,000 was quickly assembled to deal with the threat from Qi.
A battle concerning the survival of the country is about to begin.
At this time, above the Chu State's court, Chu Muxue was faced with the problem of selecting the commander-in-chief of this war.
Many generals saw this as a good opportunity to gain military exploits.
It should be noted that under the leadership of Su Ye, the Chu army had never suffered a defeat.
Now, the 300,000-strong army faced off against Qi's 200,000-strong army, forming a crushing force in terms of numbers.
The soldiers of the Chu State, who had been victorious in countless battles, all believed that this was a battle that they could win.
This is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to wash away the shame of the war with Yan and gain fame.
For a time, generals came forward one after another, vying to request to be the commander-in-chief of this war.
"Your Majesty, I am a veteran of the Great Chu who has been on the battlefield for many years. He has defeated the enemy many times over the years. I will definitely win the battle against Qi!"
"Although I am old, my ambition is still there. I am willing to fight for the Chu State and repel the Qi State!"
"The Qi State has a strong military. This war is a good opportunity to show off the Chu State's strength. I should invite you to join the battle!"
Chu Muxue glanced across the court hall, feeling uncertain in her heart.
The core of this war is how to maximize the advantages of Chu's army and defeat Qi with wisdom and strategy.
All of this is undoubtedly Su Ye's specialty.
Looking back on the past, Su Ye used his troops like a god, achieving great results on the battlefield many times and winning numerous victories for the Chu State.
He relied on his extraordinary wisdom to accurately predict the trend of the war situation.
At critical moments, he stepped forward many times to save Chu State in times of crisis.
He is good at capturing the key points of the battle situation, accurately judging the enemy's movements, and winning with less and more by surprise.
His tactics are flexible and changeable, making his enemies elusive, and he achieves victory after victory.
Under Su Ye's leadership, the Chu army became an invincible force, frightening the enemy.
Everyone in the world doesn’t know about Su Ye’s illustrious military exploits in white clothes!
However, now that Su Ye is no longer a general of Chu, Chu Muxue can no longer rely on his wisdom.
Chu Muxue took a deep breath and thought deeply.
Finally, he focused his attention on a taciturn general.
This general's name is Zhao Kuo, who once served as deputy general under Su Ye.
He followed Su Ye on the battlefield and accumulated rich combat experience.
He is also humble and good at listening to the opinions of his subordinates.
"Zhao Kuo, I appoint you as the commander-in-chief of this war. You will lead Chu's 300,000 troops to repel Qi's invasion."
Chu Muxue declared firmly with a solemn tone.
Zhao Kuo heard this and thanked him quickly:
"Your Majesty trusts me, and I will do my best until I die!"
Zhao Kuo said passionately, with a firm light shining in his eyes.
The other generals were extremely envious as they watched Zhao Kuo kneel down to salute and accept the battle order.
Why can't it be my turn to have such military exploits at my fingertips?
Chu Muxue, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at the generals who were full of fighting spirit with satisfaction.
Although Su Ye was brave and fearless on the battlefield, he was invincible.
But what cannot be ignored is that Chu Muxue’s wise decision-making and trust are inseparable from it.
She knew very well that any general could be replaced, including the God of War Su Ye.
Chu Muxue deeply understands that unity and overcoming difficulties are the key to solving national problems.
With the support of this belief, she strives to gather the strength of all parties in the country to jointly respond to external pressures and challenges.
She hopes that the world can realize what makes Chu truly powerful.
It's not just Su Ye in white on the battlefield.
More importantly, the empress Chu Muxue bravely faced the difficulties and had firm faith!
Under her command, the Chu army must still be invincible and invincible!
Under Chu Muxue's instructions, Zhao Kuo quickly led the Chu army to the border.
After several days of marching, the two sides encountered each other at Jialing Pass, the border fortress of Chu State, and a fierce battle broke out.
However.
The development of the battle situation exceeded everyone's expectations.
