The next day, noon!
In Wuying Palace, Dongfang Yu ordered a banquet. The imperial dining room in the palace was quite good, at least... After getting his recipe, the original simple dishes in the imperial dining room were now much richer.
Braised goose, roast duck, etc. were all Dongfang Yu's favorite foods in his previous life.
Your Highness, several majestic figures suddenly appeared.
Dongfang Yu's flying general Ma Chao, general Ma Dai; his hussar general Liu Wenqin, generals: Huo Ji, Luo Sha, Luo Zong, Luo Youshan, as well as the artillery battalion commander Long Yun, and the Shenji battalion commander Li Hui.
Today, they all wore armor and went to the palace. They were not fools. They knew why the emperor suddenly summoned them.
In Jiangyin in the north, there has been no movement for a long time. It is estimated that... His Majesty is going to conquer it personally.
These generals are basically the generals of this Northern Expedition.
There was no other way. The other generals were stationed in all directions, or they went to sea to guard against Japanese pirates.
When several people meet, they are as close as brothers.
"General Ma Chao, you are here too. It seems that your Majesty is going to make a big move this time." Liu Wenqin patted Ma Chao's chest and couldn't help but say.
"Haha, after a year of military training in the national government, the boys under my command have not been stained with blood for several years, and they are already hungry and thirsty!" Ma Chao said with a smile.
"I don't know what happened to that kid from Jiangyin? He stayed at the border for a year without moving!"
Jiangyin's ability to lead the army is not weak. Previously... when he accompanied Dongfang Yu on his expeditions to the north and south, the latter had displayed extremely strong military abilities.
"You can't blame him. After all, the foundation of the Yan Kingdom has been established for a hundred or two hundred years and it is difficult to shake. It is normal." Liu Wenqin said.
Even he didn't dare to underestimate Gongsun Yan and Gongsun Miao.
"Greetings to the two generals!" The general who came from behind immediately paid homage to the two men.
"Hey, even your two generals are here."
"It seems that this time, Your Majesty is going to mobilize the entire artillery battalion and the Shenji Battalion for the northern expedition!" Ma Chao said with a smile.
Generals from various organizations and legions in the capital are all here.
This gathered almost half of the top officials of Qin State.
"I'm just here to support the two generals," Li Hui said politely.
"Hey, what do you mean by playing auxiliary? Our cannons and muskets are magical weapons. When the time comes... we will have to fight against Yan State's artillery for a few times." Long Yun is still that carefree and fearless character.
"Let's go in first."
Led by Liu Wenqin and Ma Chao, they walked towards the palace.
At this time, Xiao Liuzi had already come out.
"The generals were chatting and laughing, and even the old slave was infected!"
"By the way, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time. In order to entertain the generals, he even brought out the fine wine that he had treasured for a long time, saying that he wanted to get drunk with the generals before resting!" Xiao Liuzi revealed in advance! .
oh!
Everyone's eyes lit up, the word "good wine" is so tempting!
After a while, the generals arrived at the main hall.
At this time, Dongfang Yu, Zhuge Xuanyu, Xu Meng, and Jiang Yin were already seated.
Seeing Liu Wenqin, Ma Chao and others, Dongfang Yu stood up immediately and said, "Generals, we are finally here."
"We haven't seen each other for a few months. You are getting stronger and stronger!"
It was like meeting old friends.
However, all the generals still had to bow and clasp their fists in salute, "Long live my emperor, long live long live!"
"No gifts! No gifts!"
"Today, everyone, don't be restrained. Just like us brothers before, drink and eat meat together." Dongfang Yu said immediately.
"Generals, sit down quickly."
The generals were not polite and sat down one by one, and Liu Wenqin naturally sat at the head of the right seat. The latter was a hussar general, in fact, he was no different from a general.
But he is quite trusted by Dongfang Yu.
"Everyone, we are about to go on an expedition. This time, I asked you to come. In addition to getting together, we just want to talk about what plans we have for conquering the Yan Kingdom!" Dongfang Yu picked up the wine glass and said immediately.
Liu Wenqin replied: "Your Majesty, we have to ask General Jiangyin about this matter."
"General Jiangyin has been confronting the Yan army on the Qin-Yan border for so long, so he naturally understands it better than we do. General Jiangyin, please tell us about the situation!"
well!
Speaking of this, Jiang Yin's face turned extremely red, "I am so ashamed that I have failed to live up to the expectations of His Majesty and the generals!"
"Wanting to capture the Yan State in one go will not happen overnight, but! Your Majesty's personal expedition this time, my suggestion is to use a strategy of suspicion to overwhelm the city and divert the attention of the Yan army. Then! Our army can Send out a group of cavalry and go straight to the racecourse.”
This racecourse was taken from the Liao people by the Yan State.
There are hundreds of thousands of grassland horses, and they are all strong and sweaty horses.
If the Yan State's carriage can be taken down, the Yan State's flying cavalry will only fight less and less, even if the Yan State's flying cavalry is powerful. At that time, the Yan State's most elite cavalry will be gone, what else can they use to compete with Da Qin?
hiss!
Dongfang Yu looked at the latter, "Jiangyin, since you have a way, why don't you use it?"
"this…"
Jiang Yin frowned, "Your Majesty, it's not like you don't know that the 400,000 troops under my command are monitored by the enemy day and night. If there is any trouble, Gongsun Yan will be on guard."
"Okay! Okay!" Looking at Jiang Yin's bitter face, Dongfang Yu quickly stopped the latter, "When I fought with the Liao Kingdom, I didn't have flowers on all sides, and finally defeated the Liao Kingdom. "
"This time, while taking over the Yan Kingdom's racecourse, I will find an opportunity to go south and approach the Yan Kingdom's capital."
"Fighting on two fronts, Yan will definitely be difficult to defeat."
Today's Yan State only has an army of sixty-five, this time! He led a large army of 650,000, and they were all elite.
"Of course, winter will come in a few months, and the horse farms are almost ready. By then, heavy snow will block the mountains, and our army will be in trouble."
"This year is just an appetizer. When spring starts in March next year, I will go on a personal expedition. This time I just give the Yan State a warning. If we advance by water next year, the Yan State will be destroyed." Dongfang Yu said with a vibrating voice.
"Everyone, help us, Da Qin... to win!"
All the generals raised their glasses and said, "The Qin Dynasty will be victorious!"
Immediately, he drank it all in one gulp.
What this group of men talked about most was naturally the crusade against Yan State, which was extremely strategic.
A few days later.
The people in Jingping all knew that the emperor wanted to lead a personal expedition.
Both sides of the streets in Jingping City were filled with people. Jingping City, which was usually very lively, was extremely quiet today.
"Husband, when you are out on an expedition, please be careful with your sword." Liu Wenxin warned worriedly.
"Husband, otherwise... let me accompany you on the expedition!" At this time, Gu Yuena stood up and said.
He is the daughter of the old King Wuhuan. She has been riding horses and hunting since she was a child. She has some martial arts skills. She dreams of going on an expedition with Dongfang Yu.
