Luo Qi Imperial Capital!
"Eight hundred miles urgent report!"
"Get out of the way quickly!"
King Chen's envoy rushed all the way, and the soldiers stationed at the city gate did not dare to stop him.
"Report! Your Majesty, an urgent letter from King Chen!"
…
"Come and see with me!" Dongfang Changju is located on the Dragon Throne, right now! It doesn't matter how many of the ministers in the court are loyal to the vassal king.
now! The world has reached its most chaotic period, and Beiyan and Daliao are both ready to make a move! Wu and Yue also sent troops at the same time to attack the border of Chu.
Eastern Japanese pirates, numbering tens of thousands, once again plundered the country's coast. Within the Wu Kingdom, both the east and the west were at war. But such a chaos gave Dongfang Chang the best opportunity to seize power.
The eunuch quickly presented the letter sent by King Chen to Dongfang Chang.
Dongfang Chang opened it and took a look, but his face was terrifyingly quiet. At the same time! The Qin army's attack shocked Zhang Dongfang.
"Qin's 280,000-strong army was divided into three armies and marched into Jingzhou together!" Chang Dongfang couldn't help but lose color, his face turned extremely ugly.
And everyone in your highness was also shocked by King Qin's move.
"Oh my God! How many years has it been since the rise of the Qin State? In such a short period of time, an army of more than 200,000 people could be organized to march eastward!"
"Oh my God! It's incredible! This doesn't include Wei Qing's soldiers and horses in the north, and the soldiers and horses stationed in various states. All in all, there must be at least 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers and horses!"
…
Ministers, you say something and I say something. They were all frightened by Qin's strong national power. and! Opposite the imperial court is the State of Qin. If it makes Qin unhappy, I guess! The Qin army will arrive at Xiaoguan within a few days.
but! Thinking of Zhao Shiyan, Guo Yi, Guo Deng and others, there was joy on their faces.
At the moment, the person Dongfang Chang trusts most is Jiang Li. Jiang Li was appointed by the late emperor to be the commander-in-chief of the imperial army. Since the death of Emperor Xuanwu, Jiang Li has been completely protecting Dongfang Chang.
so! Compared with some emperors, everyone rebelled and separated from their relatives, and they had no trusted subordinates to dispatch. Dongfang Chang's current situation has been settled.
At this time, Zhao Shiyan stepped out, stood in the center of the hall, and said: "Your Majesty! Recently I heard in private that your Majesty has formed an alliance with King Chen. When King Qin launched a large-scale attack on Jingzhou, I hope the court can Send troops to support?”
"Moreover! Your Majesty also agreed to N Bingzheng's rude request!"
I didn’t expect this old guy to be so well informed? However, it is true that Dongfang Chang is disgusted with Zhao Shiyan.
This old guy is indeed someone placed in the court by King Qin.
"Haha! I didn't expect the Prime Minister to be so well-informed? You even know the news about my alliance with King Chen." This time, Chief Dongfang did not avoid it. Instead, he confronted Zhao Shiyan with extremely sharp words.
"But! The Prime Minister should know what my relationship is with King Chen! King Chen is my royal brother, and any alliance or not is bullshit. As long as the royal brother is in danger, as the co-owner of the world, can't we send troops to rescue him? ?”
The expressions of the surrounding ministers all changed dramatically.
I secretly thought to myself, why is Your Majesty so crazy today? How dare you speak to the Prime Minister like this.
Don’t you want to sit on the throne under your butt?
Everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty didn't know that Zhao Shiyan's son-in-law was the King of Qin! How strong is King Qin? There’s nothing more to say, right? Like a tiger entrenched in the west, overlooking the Shandong kingdoms. His power can be regarded as the greatest among the five emperors!
And today, His Majesty actually dares to talk to Zhao Shiyan like this... As long as Zhao Shiyan wants, he can change Dawu's court to another emperor.
"Okay... Since your Majesty has such ambitions, I naturally have nothing to say. How about the imperial military strength? Your Majesty can dispatch it." Zhao Shiyan was not angry. Instead, he took a step back, swallowed this defeat, and gave Dongfang face.
All the ministers thought that their eyes were deceived.
Today's Prime Minister actually does not object to His Majesty.
Strange! Is this really a strange thing?
Dongfang Chang was also extremely surprised. He didn't know what Zhao Shiyan was planning in his heart, but! Since Zhao Shiyan said so, he had to seize the opportunity.
"Send an order. When General Wei's army comes back, the imperial court will send a hundred thousand troops to support King Chen and send troops to Qin." Dongfang Chang said.
actually! I also planned to write a delayed imperial edict to the grassland guards. It has been half a month and there is still no reply.
actually! The reply has arrived, but Zhao Shiyan intercepted it.
"Hehehe!"
"I think your Majesty, it's better not to wait for General Wei Deyan and General Fang Deng! I received the letter from the border just five days ago." Zhao Shiyan said as he put the letter in his arms , took it out.
"This is a handwritten letter from General Wei Chiyan. It says that the lands outside the country were obtained with the blood of the general and hundreds of thousands of soldiers. I cannot bear to abandon them...and do not want to return to the capital. Please forgive me."
Say it! The eunuch took over and delivered the letter to Chief Dongfang.
"Prime Minister, I should read the letter first. Why is it in your hand? Could it be that... you want to rebel?" Dongfang Chang said angrily.
"hehe?"
"I don't dare to rebel, but everything I do is for His Majesty!" Zhao Shiyan said with a smile.
ridiculous! How ridiculous!
After saying this, there were several letters.
But Dongfang Chang, who had originally let Zhao Shiyan fall behind, became even more angry after seeing this letter from the border.
"Wei Chiyan and Fang Deng actually dare to disobey my order. What do they want to do? Do they want to rebel?"
Without these 100,000 troops, it was not King Chen who should be anxious, but Dongfang Chang himself.
"I don't care. Liu Wenwen and Shi Wenlong listen to the order. I want you to lead an army of 80,000 and approach the border of Qin!"
"The Flying Dragon Army, the Flying Tiger Army, the Wuwei Battalion, and the Firearms Battalion are all sent out by me."
"Now! The Qin State's 280,000 troops are marching south to Jingzhou. I don't believe it. They still have troops to guard Beiliang." Dongfang Chang said angrily.
Liu Wenwen and Shi Wenlong looked at each other helplessly, "I will take your orders!"
And after losing the 80,000-strong army, there were only 50,000 troops left in the capital.
Chief Dongfang ignored everyone's opposition and resolutely sent troops.
Just a few days later, the secret guard spread the news to Dongfang Yu's ears.
Dongfang Yu, who was already preparing to go on an expedition, immediately felt unhappy.
The mood made Dongfang Chang a mess.
"Good! You are indeed my good brother."
"Do you really think that I won't dare to touch the imperial court?" Dongfang Yu became angry immediately.
"Send the order! Order the firearms battalion to transport one hundred and fifty Frankie cannons and fifty Hongyi cannons and be on standby at the borders of Yun, Zheng, and Liang!"
"Order Zhang Han to lead an army of 30,000 people out of Liangzhou. Order Wang Jian to dispatch an army of 50,000 people from Zhengzhou to go north. The two armies will join forces and press on the Weiguan Pass."
"As long as the imperial army dares to take a step out of Weiguan! The army will attack the city directly." Dongfang Yu seemed to have eaten gunpowder, and his temper was extremely bad.
