The Emperor is Above

Chapter 479 Reaching Agreement

How do you have the nerve to say that?

Yang Lezi was complaining wildly in his heart and looking at Qing Yi with shock on his face.

In his opinion, the two sides were almost at odds with each other. It was a good thing that the emperor and the coalition forces of the princes did not turn around and leave Yangwu City. Why would they join forces with Qing Yi to suppress the Ghost Witch Tribe?
Qing Yi, however, looked extremely calm, with a smile on his lips, and quietly waited for responses from Shen Buhai, Shen Bumie and others, as if nothing had happened just now.

As expected, Shen Buhai and Shen Bumie stopped in their tracks, hesitated for a moment, and turned around.

In the horrified eyes of Yang Lezi Yaqing, Shen Buhai bowed and asked very seriously: "I wonder how the senior doctor envisioned the joint attack and destruction of the Ghost Witch Tribe?"

As capable and ambitious relatives of the emperor, Shen Buhai and his two companions led their troops north to support the State of Xing, with a strong desire to achieve great achievements and become famous throughout the world.

The Ghost Witch Tribe, which had suffered heavy losses many times, had a thousand-year heritage and was notorious, was undoubtedly a suitable target for their first battle to establish their reputation, which led to the coalition's trip to Yangwu City.

However, in the few days before and after arriving at Yangwu City, they learned in detail about the complex terrain of the Lishui Lake. The three men had to admit that they had taken things for granted without any experience in marching or fighting.

The 5,000 reinforcements sent by the emperor were powerful, but whether it was the Cheshi, the exotic beast heavy cavalry, or the 1,000 elite light cavalry, they were only suitable for charging and fighting in the flat wilderness.

It was impossible for them to lead the chariot division and heavy cavalry to charge deep into the swamp, and it was even more impossible for them to expect the more than 400 mages accompanying the army to serve as the main force to attack the swamp.

The elite troops sent by the princes of other countries were indeed elite troops in their respective countries, but most of them did not have sufficient war experience.

A group of overconfident rookies were extremely confident before the war, but when they needed to fight with real guns and swords, they finally panicked about the complex terrain of the Ghost Witch Tribe's lair.

Normally, the Xing State would have sent a large army to suppress the Ghost Witch Tribe. However, due to the conflict with the army under Huo Yun Yaqing, the coalition generals refused with a firm attitude.

When they realized that they really needed help, they were too embarrassed to ask Xing State to send people to assist. Qing Yi's proposal at this moment made them secretly happy.

Although he was happy in his heart, he had to keep a reserved look on his face. Shen Bumie and other coalition generals also wanted to know the real combat effectiveness of the Longcheng Guards, to make sure that their silver-coated wax spears were only good-looking but useless.

"City Guard Tian Bin received a message from a scout today that a Ghost Witch army of over 10,000 people appeared on the bank of the Lishui Lake in the direction of Yangwu City."

Qing Yi smiled and nodded, "Although I don't know why this army didn't attack Yangwu City immediately, and I haven't seen the subsequent Ghost Witch Army appear, it at least shows that the Ghost Witch is likely to attack Yangwu City.

I think it is just right to set a trap in Yangwu City to lure the Ghost Witch Tribe to attack Yangwu City with all their strength. After they leave the natural barrier of the Daze, it will be much easier to deal with them.

There are 10,000 Longcheng guards, 22,000 young and strong militiamen in total, plus the 40,000-strong coalition forces of the emperor and princes, which are enough to ambush the Guiwu tribe.

After destroying the main force of the Ghost Witch Tribe in Yangwu City, the army joined forces to enter the Lishui Lake and completely eradicated the Ghost Witch Tribe, eliminating the last trace of hidden danger in order to fully fight against the Xianyu army. "

Shen Buhai pondered for a moment and did not answer immediately. Instead, he turned his head to look at his cousin next to him. Even Shen Bushing, whose face was ashen, was paying attention.

Shen Bumie is the oldest of the three clan generals, about thirty-five years old. Although he seems to be taciturn, he is the backbone of the three.

The tall man with sharp features thought for a moment, then nodded seriously and said, "It would be best if we could lure the Ghost Witch Tribe out of the Lishui Lake.

However, if Shang Dafu and Yangwucheng join forces with our army, they must obey our orders in order to ensure the unity of military orders. "People in the world seek fame or profit. Of course, there is no benefit in destroying the Ghost Witch Tribe, so everyone can only gain enough fame from it, which is exactly what Qing Yi needs.

Beigong Yu stood up without hesitation and refuted: "Captain Shen Bumie is wrong. As the saying goes, a guest should follow the host's wishes. Since we are fighting in the territory of Xing State, we have to take the lead in military orders."

The suggestion of uniting to wipe out the Ghost Witch Tribe was agreed by everyone, but a fierce dispute arose over the dominance, as everyone wanted to gain the dominance of this war.

Shen Buhai stood beside Shen Bumie and said in a loud voice: "We are going to the battle by the order of the emperor, carrying the emperor's seal and marching north to conquer the foreign tribes that are not obedient.

We have also joined forces with the princes of various countries in Zhongzhou to form a total of 40,000 troops. You don't obey our orders, do you still want to command the emperor?"

When Shen Buhai brought up the emperor's ceremonial ceremony as an excuse, even Yang Lezi Yaqing and Tian Bin didn't know how to fight for the dominant position.

"Hey, Captain, have you forgotten what Grandmaster Taizu of Dashen said?"

Beigong Yu smiled calmly and retorted, "The vassal of the monarch's vassal is definitely not the monarch's vassal, and the vassal of the emperor's vassal is definitely not the emperor's vassal.

The emperor and the princes each have their own territory. Xing Hou is loyal to the emperor, but we are not his vassal. Therefore, we cannot say that the commander holds the emperor's ceremonial flag and can give us orders.

In addition, after the emperor's reinforcements and the forces of various princes were combined, there were 40,000 people, but they were divided into more than 200 vassal states, and they were not subordinate to each other. The large groups consisted of several thousand people, and the small groups consisted of hundreds of people.

Although each unit was an elite division carefully selected by the princes of Zhongzhou, in reality they were a group of scattered individuals with strong strength and could not be used as the main force for attacking an enemy.

On the contrary, the Dragon City Guards seem to have only 10,000 people, but they are all loyal to the Dragon City Yi Shang Doctor. As the intermediate force to attack the Ghost Witch Department, can they not lead this battle? "

The two sides argued constantly, and each had their own good reasons. Qing Yi had to be thankful that he had a debate master like Beigong Yu under his command, thus avoiding the embarrassment of the lord having to go into battle bare-handed.

Seeing that both sides had no intention of stopping for the time being, Tun Shigu simply set up tents, brought in a large number of tables and chairs, and provided tea and fruit as entertainment.

After an entire night of negotiation (dispute) (argument), until the next morning when everyone was so exhausted and their lips were almost blistered, they finally managed to reach a compromise agreement.

"Since Yang Lezi Yaqing is the only one with the highest rank in Yangwu City, let him be the commander-in-chief and coordinate the actions of all the troops."

"Well, if Yang Lezi Yaqing is the leader, we can barely accept it. After all, he is also fighting on behalf of Xing Hou."

Yang Lezi Yaqing, who had been with both parties all night, was now very sleepy but did not dare to fall asleep. His thick bags under his eyes were very obvious and the dark circles under his eyes were clearly visible.

The two sides argued endlessly and finally chose himself as the commander-in-chief. In fact, he was just a middleman and had no real power at all, but it was still a rare opportunity for him.

After trying hard to regain his strength, Yang Lezi was about to say some morale-boosting words to everyone when he heard the cry of a falcon in the sky.

Then a man's congratulatory voice came: "Yang Lezi Yaqing, Longcheng Yishang Doctor, congratulations to you!"
