"Wait a minute." Hu Yao's face changed drastically, and he said anxiously, "We are willing to swear."

Meng Hu smiled coldly and said, "Isn't it a matter of being done if I say that earlier."

After saying that, Meng Hu turned around and signaled the soldiers who were holding bows and arrows behind him to put down the bows and arrows, and said to Qi Diaozi: "Let someone prepare blood and enough food immediately. After these barbarians have finished making a vow, they will have a full meal. We don't have much time. They must recover their strength before dawn tomorrow!"

"yes."

Qi Diaohuazi responded respectfully, "I will go and prepare now."

When Zhao Qinghan shrank his troops and was about to defend Xiling, the entire western army was destroyed, and the bad news of Zhao Yue's death was rushed back to the imperial capital of the Guanghui Empire, Luojing City, for 800 miles.

One stone stirs up a thousand layers of waves.

Because the old emperor was seriously ill and unconscious, all forces that were already ready to move have accelerated their actions, and the last moment of the goal is coming!

Luojing City is square, covering an area of ​​more than 80,000 acres and has a side length of nearly fifteen miles. It is the largest city in the Guanghui Empire.

Luojing City has eight city gates, two gates on each side, two gates on each side, and two main streets on each side, north and south, east and west, respectively, connected to the eight city gates, and divide the entire city into nine major areas. Located in the middle of the North City District is the majestic and magnificent Sun City, which is the palace of the Glorious Empire!

The areas adjacent to the left and right sides of the palace are full of luxury houses, which are residential areas for the royal children and royal relatives in Beijing.

The magnificent Qin Palace is located in the middle of the east district of Beicheng. Qin King Meng Yan is the second son of the old emperor Meng Yuan. Meng Yan's mother, Concubine Ye, is the younger sister of Ye Haotian, the minister of the Ministry of War.

It was late at night, and Qin King Meng Yanzheng discussed matters with his confidant Shi Miyuan and his uncle Ye Haotian.

Meng Yan said: "Uncle, Mr. Miyuan, Zhao Yue died in battle. Uncle Wentian and Dingxi's cousin's life and death are unknown. I believe you already know the destruction of the entire Western Army. I wonder what you think about this?"

Shi Miyuan stroked the goatee beard under his chin and turned his eyes to Ye Haotian in the upper head.

Ye Haotian pondered for a moment and said, "From the eyes, Zhao Yue's death and the destruction of the Western Legion are good things for Your Highness. Without Zhao Yue's support, the Third Highness basically loses the possibility of ascending the throne. In this way, we will lose a strong opponent and be able to concentrate our efforts on the Great Highness and the Fourth Highness."

Meng Yan said: "What about the long term?"

Ye Haotian said: "In the long run, the western provinces are the barriers to the western empire. Once they are lost, the capital and the imperial capital will directly face the military front of the Mingyue Empire Army. Moreover, the Sanjiang Plain has a fertile field for thousands of miles, which is the imperial grain-producing area. The three major mines located in the western provinces are the source of weapons and armor for the two royal legions of the imperial capital. There is no need to lose it."

Meng Xian asked, "What uncle means, should the western provinces save?"

Ye Haotian shook his head and said, "Not that, if His Highness really wants to use the Guards to rescue the western provinces, it is likely that His Highness and the Third Highness will take advantage of the situation. In this way, even if he saves the western provinces, he loses his position as a treasure, and in the end he will become a wedding dress for others, which is not worth the loss."

Meng Yan's eyes turned to Shi Miyuan and asked, "What does Mr. Miyuan mean?"

Shi Miyuan looked cunning and said respectfully: "I have a plan to be beautiful in both worlds."

Meng Yan's expression moved slightly and asked, "Mr. Miyuan, please tell me quickly."

Shi Miyuan stroked his goatee and said, "The situation in the imperial capital is very delicate at the moment. Although the strength mastered by His Highness is the strongest, once His Highness and the Fourth Highness join forces, they will be evenly matched. If you take action rashly, you will likely be defeated. If you accidentally let the two highnesses escape from the imperial capital, the empire may be divided."

Meng Yan and Ye Haotian nodded. If they hadn't been for this concern, they would have taken action long ago.

Shi Miyuan continued: "We had already had a comprehensive plan. At most two months, Your Highness will be able to successfully ascend the Great Treasure. But at this critical moment, the Mingyue Empire has invaded a large-scale invasion. If we still act according to the original plan, when Your Highness successfully ascends the Great Treasure, the western provinces may have been incorporated into the territory of the Mingyue Empire. It will be difficult to retake it again."

Ye Haotian said anxiously: "Oh, I said Lao Shi, just say your strategy of being both good and beautiful."

Shi Miyuan smiled and said, "The so-called strategy of being both good and beautiful is actually to take advantage of the situation."

"Take the momentum?" Meng Yan frowned and asked, "How can you take advantage of the momentum?"

Shi Miyuan said: "When the court is about tomorrow, Lord Ye can propose to send troops to rescue the western provinces. Since it is to rescue the western provinces, of course, it should send troops from the nearby northwest, southwest, and capital. At that time, Your Highness will volunteer and demand the commander of the army to go to the expedition. Your Highness and the Fourth Highness will only suffer a silence."

Ye Haotian exclaimed: "Old Shi has a good idea. The Northwest Legion is the power of His Highness, and the Southwest Legion is the power of His Highness. If we can really take this opportunity to make these two legions fight against the Mingyue Empire Army and suffer both losses, then His Highness and His Highness will not have the strength to compete with His Highness at all."

Meng Yan frowned and said, "Can the boss and the fourth brother hand over the two legions obediently?"

"It is certain that Your Highness and Fourth Highness are unhappy, but it is not possible to not hand over the two legions!"

Shi Miyuan smiled confidently and said, "The Mingyue Empire Army launched a large-scale invasion, and the western provinces are in danger. It is natural to send troops to rescue them. What reasons do Your Highness and the Fourth Highness oppose it? Although everyone knows what's going on, some words cannot be taken to the table. This is a conspiracy, using power to suppress others, and there is nothing to say!"

Meng Yan was still a little worried and said, "What if the eldest, the third brother proposes to let Zheng Chongguang or Le Yu serve as the commander?"

Shi Miyuan smiled treacherously and said, "That's why you ask Your Highness to volunteer. In terms of identity, Your Highness is the commander of the Guards, Zheng Chongguang is the commander of the Northwest Legion, and Leyu is the commander of the Southwest Legion, which is comparable. However, in terms of level, Your Highness is the dignified King of Qin, while Zheng Chongguang and Leyu are just marquis, two levels worse than Your Highness, let alone Your Highness is also the top student of the Royal Military Academy. As the commander of the expedition army, it can be said that everyone will be welcomed."

Meng Yan said secretly happily when he heard this: "The boss and the fourth brother are really nothing to say."

Ye Haotian suddenly said, "What if Zheng Chongguang and Le Yu deliberately delay time? Just wait for Xiling to fall, they will have more reason to stop moving."

Shi Miyuan smiled sinisterly and said, "Even if Zheng Chongguang and Le Yu want to hold their troops still, I am afraid that the King of Yan will not agree."

The King of Yan mentioned by Shi Miyuan is Meng Ke, the younger brother of the current imperial emperor Meng Yuan, and the uncle of several princes. Meng Ke is not only the governor of the capital province, but also the commander of the imperial guards. The king of Yan is so powerful that it will inevitably become the focus of the competition among several princes, but this King of Yan never showed any tendency!

Meng Yan thought for a moment and then suddenly realized: "Mr. Miyuan means that if he kept his troops in the army and watched the fall of the western provinces, the emperor's uncle would keep the account on the eldest and fourth brothers. In this way, even if they preserved their strength, they offended the emperor's uncle and would lose the possibility of succession to the throne forever!"

"good!"

Shi Miyuan said in a dark voice, "Although King Yan is a low-key person, his influence on the empire is extraordinary. For him, his nobles are all descendants of the current emperor. No matter who inherits the throne, there is no difference. This is an internal struggle and he is inconvenient to intervene. But the large-scale invasion of the Mingyue Empire is different. This is an invasion of foreign races and an external fight. He will never sit idly by! Your Highness and the Fourth Highness dare to fight for selfish interests at this time, which is a self-destruction of the future."

Ye Haotian thought about it and said with some concern: "But it will take at least two or three months for the three major guards, the northwest and southwest legions to assemble food and supplies. The western legions have been completely destroyed. With the pitiful guards in the western province, it may not last for so long."

"That's OK."

Shi Miyuan smiled indifferently and said, "Your Highness can recover the lost territory. The only difference is that this battle may be more difficult, tragic, and lasting. The losses of the two major legions in the northwest and southwest may be worse than expected, hehe, hehe..."

Meng Yan and Ye Haotian looked at each other and smiled sinisterly.
