"I accept your order!"

Dongfang Tian bowed and said.

"Prince, come with me! The rest of the ministers will withdraw from the court!" Dongfang Yu flicked his sleeves and exited the Fengtian Palace.

All the ministers left the court one after another.

Dongfang Tian and the prince followed Dongfang Yu to Qianqing Palace.

At this moment, Dongfangtian felt somewhat hesitant and happy in his heart.

He felt that Dongfang Yu and the ministers had a grudge against him, but after such a long time, Dongfang Yu actually took the initiative to negotiate with him.

At least, it made him feel that he was still a useful person in the court.

Qianqing palace!

A faint aroma filled the hall.

Dongfang Yu sat on the main seat, while Prince Edward and Dongfang Tian took their seats below.

Next to the three people, there was a tea table, and the palace maid poured tea for the three of them.

Dongfang Tian took a sip of tea and then said: "Your Majesty, what is going on? It's so mysterious!"

The emperor did not speak out about this matter in the court, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to this matter.

"Brother Imperial, you are one of my own, so I won't hide you." Dongfang Yu went straight to the point, "In the Northern War, the two armies have always been at a stalemate. In this battle, someone must take the lead."

"Whether it is Liao, Yan, or Qin, the importance of this battle will affect the entire world. I hope that Qin's cavalry can trample through the grasslands and let the flag of Great Qin be planted at the end of the grasslands."

"If we win this battle, there will be no country in the world that can stop Qin's cavalry. Therefore, I need your help to let Yan take the initiative to send troops, so as to open the gates of Yan Guolian and Yun Port!"

Dongfang Yu thought for a long time that the starting point for the battle against the Liao and Yan coalition forces would be the Yan Kingdom. After opening the gates of Yan Guolian and Yun Port, Qi Lanyin and Yu Haoming's naval forces could take the opportunity to invade South Korea, and then the two armies would attack from front to back.

The country of Yan will perish.

Dongfang Tian frowned slightly and immediately understood what the latter said.

"What your Majesty means is to transfer all the main forces in the capital to support the front line? Lead the 100,000 Yan navy from Lianyungang and Yunnan Port to attack the capital?" Dongfang Tian stroked his chin and guessed.

Dongfang Tian is the smartest among the princes, and he is very outstanding in politics and military affairs. This is why Dongfang Yu will let Dongfang Tian go to help him.

Perhaps, many people felt that he couldn't bear to kill Dongfang Tian, ​​after all! This is his brother who has a real blood relationship with him. There are indeed these reasons, but the main reason is that the latter is smart and knows how to advance and retreat.

In addition, when he spared Dongfang Tian at that time, he still considered that if he killed the generals under his command, Dongfang Tian's talents would probably fight to the death with him.

"Not bad!" Dongfang Yu nodded slightly.

"Your Majesty, how many people will be transferred to the northern front?" Dongfang Tian continued to ask.

"Wang Jian's 100,000-strong army and 40,000 forbidden troops in the capital!" Dongfang Yu said.

After mobilizing these soldiers and horses to the front line, the army under his command reached more than 800,000.

With such equal forces, we can drive out wolves and tigers, just around the corner!

"Forty thousand forbidden troops?" Dongfang Tian's face suddenly turned ugly. "There are only 50,000 forbidden troops in the capital. I'm afraid to send another 40,000 forbidden troops! If Yan Kingdom's navy really arrives, there will be a huge gap between ten thousand and one hundred thousand." .”

Yan State's 100,000 naval forces are all elite and equipped with Yan State's most advanced artillery.

"There are 500,000 new soldiers in the Central Plains, and they are commanded by our famous Qin generals Huo Ji and Jiang Ping. They can support the capital at any time."

"Besides, if we, the people of Jingping, learn that the Yan army is coming, we will definitely unite the army and the people to fight against the powerful enemy." Dongfang Yu said.

The common people assisted the officers and soldiers in defending the city. Such a unique sight was probably only seen in the Qin Kingdom!

"What does Your Majesty want me to do?" Dongfang Tian thought for a while, stood up and asked.

"Before Qi Lanyin and Yu Haoming's armies arrive at Lianyun and Yun ports, defend the capital! During this period, I will hand over the power of mobilizing the entire capital to you and the prince." Dongfang Yu looked at the latter.

Dongfang Tian was extremely serious, "Okay, your majesty's will, I will follow it even if I die. Please rest assured, your majesty, as long as I am still alive, the capital will not be lost."

Allowing Dongfangtian to guard the capital will inevitably weaken the vigilance of the rulers of Yan and Liao. They would think that the Qin State had sent all the main forces in the country to the north, and even almost all the generals in Beijing had mobilized to the north to fight against the coalition forces.

So! Their attacks will become more rapid and they will neglect domestic precautions.

Of course, this is not enough. The game Dongfang Yu is playing is huge, and relying on these conditions alone is not enough to induce the enemy to send troops hastily.

"Father, there is one more thing. Li Jing from the south has captured Liuli Island. A hundred thousand troops led by Xu Rong and Li Xiaozhi have arrived in Yuzhou. I am thinking if I can use Xu Rong's army as a surprise force. If you appear, will it directly reverse the situation in the northern war?" Dongfang Jun said.

"While the news of Xu Rong's army marching north has not been fully spread, I issued a false order and ordered Li Jing's army of more than 100,000 to be stationed in the south." Dongfang Yu said immediately.

"This news has been announced by the Dark Palace and will be spread throughout the country as soon as possible! Xu Rong's army of 100,000 will enter Liangzhou and leave Beimen Pass. They will advance according to the opportunity and attack the flank of the coalition forces."

The news of the great victory in the south had already spread throughout the country, and Yan and Liao Dingran also got the news.

However, if the south is not stable, whether Li Jing will divide his troops and move north will become a problem for the coalition forces.

And Dongfang Yu's imperial edict may be able to eliminate the coalition's doubts.

The overall planning still needs to pay some price.

Although the Northern Japanese had been captured, Qi Lanyin drowned more than 100,000 people in Nancheng through water attack. Most of the Eastern Japanese soldiers in the city died. The place needs to be rebuilt, so! The State of Qin directly allocated a lot of funds.

Qi Lanyin's army should have stayed in Beiwo and managed the place well. However, the war is not over yet. The next target is Southern Japan, which is much more difficult than Northern Japan.

Whether they are generals or soldiers, they are much stronger than Beibo.

Therefore, Qi Lanyin left Wu Qian and led an army of 10,000 to garrison Beibo, while he personally led the army and went south to assist Yu Haoming.

If the two armies join forces, Nanbo will lose. So! Dongfang Yu's order now is that the troops of Qi Lanyin and Yu Haoming must postpone the attack on the Southern Japanese until they receive an order from the base camp to attack Lianyungang and Yunliang Port.

In other words, the two armies cannot use their full strength.

However, if the base camp requires you to capture Nanbo within one day, you must also follow the instructions to capture it.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

After these orders were issued, the whole court was in an uproar.

After finishing the important instructions, Dongfang Yu took the two of them to Shouning Palace, the residence of the Empress Dowager.

He didn't come back even during the Chinese New Year, but when he finally came back, the Queen Mother naturally cooked in person and cooked a full table of meals.
