After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Uncle Zhong stood up with his hands on his knees.

He took two steps back and forth in the room, stood in front of the window, and looked at the crescent moon in the night sky.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Yunzhi deliberately wants to destroy the Zen sect, which shows that he has a great influence on the imperial power."

"If the emperor shows favor to the Zen sect... this may be of some benefit to the emperor in annihilating the Yue Kingdom. However, in the opinion of the veteran, waiting for the emperor to conquer the Yue Kingdom before annihilating the Zen sect may be detrimental to the emperor!"

"If the Zen sect accepts the emperor's overtures and helps the emperor eliminate the Yue country... I would like to ask the emperor, if the Zen sect is left behind, how will the situation we will face in the future be different from the current situation of the Yue country?"

"If the emperor destroys the Zen sect again, and the emperor does this thing of burning down bridges... I'm afraid he will suffer the backlash!"

"The old minister just said that Zen Buddhism has deep roots in the Yue Kingdom and has countless followers."

"The Zen sect rebelled, and the Zhao family's imperial power had the most just excuse to eliminate the Zen sect."

"Although those believers are followers of Zen Buddhism, they are also citizens of the Yue Kingdom."

"The soldiers of the Yue Kingdom can destroy the Zen sect, but the soldiers of the Huang Kingdom cannot!"

"Han Sanwu has the prince's orders and his teachers are famous. Most of the believers will remain silent."

Uncle Zhong turned and looked at Yuwenfeng.

"But your Majesty is different!"

"So I ask the emperor to give up this idea."

"The emperor will send troops in February, so the troops should arrive in the territory of Yue in late February."

"When the emperor's army reaches the Four Winds City in Kyoto, Yue Kingdom... I'm afraid it will be in April or May."

"At that time, Han Sanwu's 100,000 Shence Army had roughly arrived in Sifeng City."

"What the veteran wants to say is that our cavalry in the wilderness are good at field battles but not good at defending the city. Therefore... the best situation is for Prince Rui Yuwen and his troops to intercept the Shence Army before they enter the Four Winds City."

"As long as the Shence Army is eliminated, Sifeng City will be in the emperor's pocket."

Yu Wenfeng pondered for a moment and asked: "But if the Shence Army enters the Four Winds City before King Rui, how should we deal with this?"

"Then wait!"

"What are you waiting for?"

"Waiting for the battle between Shence Army and Zen Sect."

"Will they join hands because of the arrival of our army?"

Uncle Zhong turned to look out the window again and shook his head: "Han Sanwu is an extremely confident person."

"He knows that Huangren soldiers are not good at attacking cities, and he is also eager to eliminate the Zen sect and support the prince to ascend the throne as emperor..."

"The Shence Army is also proud. I am afraid they will not take our 20,000 cavalry seriously. Therefore, in the opinion of the veteran, if Han Sanwu has entered the Four Winds City, his choice will most likely be to defend it. In the Four Winds City, close the door and beat the dogs to eliminate the Zen sect.”

"When the prince ascends the throne, the new emperor will issue an order to send troops to deal with us."

"With the emperor's will, if we carry out a crusade, the wavering officials in the court will go all out, and the officers and soldiers of the Shence Army will also work hard."

"Han Sanwu will definitely lead his troops out of the city to fight to the death with King Rui."

"This battle... is the battle for the fate of the country of Yue."

"If it fails, the country of Yue will perish."

"If we win... then our desert country will need at least five years to recuperate."

He turned and looked at Yuwenfeng again:

"The expedition to the Yue Kingdom has advantages and disadvantages. If the emperor has 70% confidence, he can send troops. If not...then continue to hold his troops."

Yu Wenfeng thought to himself that he had magical objects such as fireworks. With this magical object, Li Chen'an could defeat an army of 50,000 soldiers with 500 troops. How could my 20,000 cavalry and 50,000 fireworks be unable to destroy the Shence Army? !

He smiled slightly and said, "Father Zhong, I'm 100% sure!"

Uncle Zhong was surprised.

There are many variables in a marching battle, and the outcome is not determined by two people's deductions like now!

But seeing the look on Yu Wenfeng's face... this emperor is quite humble, and he is usually not exaggerated.

So where is his 100% chance of winning?

Uncle Zhong didn't ask.

But he said something that touched his heart:
"Your Majesty, Kushi Fort is still in the hands of five hundred Ning troops!"

These words shot into Yu Wenfeng's heart like an arrow.

His face suddenly darkened, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp: "In these few days, none of the five hundred mice... will definitely survive!"

He stood up,
"I asked Father Zhong for advice and benefited a lot."

"It's getting late. It's time for me to return to the palace. The court will start tomorrow. I also ask Father Zhong to take charge of the logistics of the expedition to Yue." "I'm leaving!"

Uncle Zhong bowed and said, "Old minister, I respectfully send you to your Majesty!"

Yu Wenfeng left the Prime Minister's Mansion and rode a carriage to the palace.

Uncle Zhong stood in the night and watched the carriage disappear from sight. He shook his head and smiled, then turned and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He sat alone at the table and poured himself a glass of wine. He was a little worried about the safety of the five hundred Ning soldiers in Kushi Castle.

This kid Li Chenan...

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. When Uncle Zhong heard it, he put down his wine glass and said, "Come in!"

A middle-aged man in black pushed the door in and closed the door smoothly.

He came to Zhong Bo and bowed his hands:
"My lord, two pieces of news!"

"First, a Ningguo cavalry force of more than 6,000 people is about to arrive at Kushi Castle!"

"Second... two hundred miles south of the city, thousands of desert warriors died. Among them was the famous general Yu Wengu... who should be the city guard of the border city!"

Uncle Zhong was shocked when he heard this.

He pondered for three breaths, "How many Ning soldiers died?"

"Going back to the Lord, there is only one tomb there. I looked around and found that there are only...nine people!"

Zhong Bo was shocked again, annihilating Yuwen and Gu Qianqi at the cost of nine people...

Yuwen Gu was appointed by the emperor as the commander-in-chief of the border city guards. The soldiers he recruited were all soldiers who had killed many people and seen blood when they followed the emperor to conquer this grassland!

Even if they are older, they are not comparable to those new recruits.

How many people did Li Chenan send to the deserted country?

What Yuwen Gu encountered was probably tens of thousands of Ningguo soldiers!

"I know."

"...Your Majesty, the Young Master has written a secret letter, please read it!"

The man in black took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Uncle Zhong. Uncle Zhong read it carefully.

I lit the letter on the candle and watched it turn into ashes, then I said to the man in black:
"Tell Zitong that in February... there are locusts!"

The man in black bowed and retreated.

Only then did Uncle Zhong take another sip of wine, but a smile appeared on his face.

This boy Chen'an, a newborn tiger, is showing his fangs!
Good.

Sure enough, in the face of absolute power, any conspiracy is worth mentioning!
Let him come to his senses!

……

……

Outside Dahuang City.

Six carriages stopped.

The tens of thousands of troops that Uncle Zhong mistakenly thought were actually only nine people.

Xie Erxi looked at the lights in the distance, touched his scarred but itchy face, and there was another look of anger in his eyes!
"Destroy my face..."

"I will destroy this deserted city!"

Although Wang Zhenghaoxuan is indifferent, he is more sensible than his mother.

"Mom, this is the capital of the Wild Country after all!"

"It's a city of hundreds of thousands of people!"

"Let's go like this...doesn't it look down upon Huangren too much?"

Xie Erxi laughed loudly: "We, members of the Wang Zheng family, should avenge and retaliate if we have any grudges!"

"You remember!"

"The enemy is still a human being, not a god!"

"There is no human being who cannot be killed!"

"They should never have imprisoned your father and ruined your mother's face!"

"Let's go, let me kill an entire city with just one person!" (End of Chapter)
