Joy of Life: I dressed as a woman and became the Queen of Northern Qi!

Chapter 302: Six hundred thousand troops are approaching, I can lead the army myself!

cabinet.

The elders headed by Wang Xu and Shang Yang looked at the information in their hands solemnly.

Zhan Doudou was sitting in the main seat with a heavy heart.

The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat depressing, and no one spoke.

At this moment, a Jinyiwei ran into the hall quickly and handed the information to Zhan Doudou in front of everyone.

After reading the intelligence, Zhan Doudou clenched his hands suddenly, and it took a long time before he let go of the intelligence: "Emperor Qing was assassinated by a grandmaster yesterday, and the Queen of Qing died. Emperor Qing was furious!"

"After a fierce battle, the Grand Master escaped, and the rest of the assassins were captured alive!"

"After interrogation, we determined that the assassins were all members of the Northern Qi Jinyiwei!"

"Emperor Qing has issued an order at today's morning court session to mobilize 600,000 troops to Longmen Pass to avenge the queen's death!"

hiss~
When people heard Zhan Doudou's words, many of them took a deep breath.

Not only because of the 600,000-strong army approaching.

I was even more shocked by Emperor Qing’s cruelty!

In order to justify his actions, he even sacrificed his wife, the queen!

They couldn't help but be shocked by such cruel means!

"All the elders have just read the intelligence!"

"Three years ago, the Qing Kingdom mobilized 200,000 elite troops for secret training. Three years later, there is accurate intelligence that these 200,000 troops have become a fierce and powerful army!"

"Now Emperor Qing has found another reason to attack Northern Qi, and has sent 600,000 troops to destroy Northern Qi. It is obvious!"

"I wonder what you think, elders, about how this matter should be handled?"

After Zhan Doudou finished speaking, no one answered for a while.

She didn't care and just looked at Wang Xu and Shang Yang.

There are a total of seven ministers in the cabinet, excluding the four ministers who are there to make up the numbers.

The only ones who are trustworthy and capable are Wang Xu, Shang Yang, and the Imperial College Chief Academician, Zhuang Mohan!
It’s just that Zhuang Mohan is old and has long reached the age of begging for his life. He is just a figurehead in the cabinet!
Therefore, there are only six people here to participate in political affairs, and including her, there are only seven people!
"Your Majesty, the Qing Kingdom is determined to destroy our Northern Qi. There is absolutely no room for change!"

"In this case, we can only fight back!"

"In three years, relying on the supplies that the Queen brought back from Qing Kingdom, plus the ransom that Qing Kingdom paid for Ye Liuyun, our Northern Qi can be said to be strong and powerful!"

"Although we don't have a million soldiers capable of fighting, we still have four or five hundred thousand!"

"In a head-on battle, we are at a slight disadvantage, but we are not much weaker than Qing Nation!"

"I, Shang Yang, suggest that we mobilize 400,000 troops to Shanhai City. We should start recruiting soldiers from all over the country and release grain from the granaries. We must transport the grain and supplies to Shanhai City in the shortest possible time!"

Shang Yang stood up and saluted Zhan Doudou respectfully, his words full of fighting spirit.

As one of the leaders of the reform, he witnessed the changes in Northern Qi over the past three years.

From having no foundation and being weak to being strong now!

It is not much weaker than the Qing Kingdom!
He was confident that Northern Qi, with such a strong foundation, would not be easily conquered by Qing Kingdom!
And he believed that Chen Luo had already prepared a response!
After all, the news that Emperor Qing trained 200,000 elite troops was no longer a secret three years ago!
With Chen Luo's intelligence, how could he not have a solution in three years?

"Your Highness Wang Xu second this motion!"

"This battle must be fought!"

Wang Xu stood up and bowed in support.

Seeing this, the other four ministers wanted to mediate, but they also knew their status and identity.

I had no choice but to stand up and agree with their suggestion.

In fact, in their opinion, the matter is not that serious.

As long as they can explain clearly and prove that it was not Northern Qi who assassinated the Queen of Qing, then Qing would have no reason to send troops. But now that it has come to this, and they are just filling in the position of cabinet elders.

There is nothing they can do except agree!

Zhan Doudou frowned and said in a deep voice: "If that's the case, then let's fight!"

"But such an action would probably cause panic among the people. By then, before the battle even starts, our Northern Qi would be in chaos!"

To be honest, she was not panicked in this battle.

After all, she had learned about Emperor Qing's plan from Chen Luo three years ago.

I knew this day would come.

She also didn't think that Northern Qi would lose to Southern Qing!
As long as Chen Luo is here, Northern Qi will never be defeated!
What she has to do is very simple, which is to mobilize the army and appease the people!
Wang Xu bowed slightly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty!"

"After the reform, Your Majesty and the Queen are what the people of Northern Qi want!"

"All we need to do is write a document denouncing Qing's evil ambitions, affix the imperial seal and phoenix seal, and have it spread throughout the cities of Northern Qi. Then have the Imperial Guards arrange for someone to stir up the people's hatred towards Qing, and we'll stop the people from panicking!"

"On the contrary, it can attract many patriotic people to join the army!"

"I think it won't be long before Northern Qi can recruit another 200,000-plus troops!"

After receiving Wang Xu's affirmative answer, Zhan Doudou felt completely relieved.

After waving his hand and asking the ministers to draft the documents, he left the cabinet.

Although I already knew that Chen Luo had a plan.

But she still wanted to ask what she needed to do in this plan.

If necessary, she can lead the army herself!

Three years ago, Chen Luo could cheer for the three armies at the border!

Three years later, she and Zhan Doudou can also do the same!

······
The news that Qing had declared war on Northern Qi spread throughout Northern Qi within two days thanks to the promotion of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

The documents stamped by Zhan Doudou and Chen Luo were also spread to all states, counties and prefectures.

The notices in towns and cities across the Northern Qi Dynasty were crowded with people.

After several scholars finished reading the notice, it immediately caused a lot of discussion among the people.

There is resentment and there is fear.

War means death, and all the people want is to live a peaceful life.

No one wants war to come, because it may very well mean that the home they have worked hard for their entire lives will fall apart in an instant!
It also means that their family members and friends will go to the battlefield and may die in battle at any time!

"Everyone! Qing country is too bullying. In the past few years, it has continuously invaded my border town, causing my soldiers and civilians to suffer terribly!"

"Fortunately, the Queen came to Northern Qi and saved the situation. She gave Northern Qi a glimmer of hope, allowing us to have a full meal and a light at night!"

"Now the Qing Kingdom is still determined to invade Northern Qi with this excuse, trying to destroy Northern Qi and make us slaves of a fallen nation, and destroy our home!"

"Although I am just a scholar, I know that there is no home without a country, and I understand the sacrifices that Your Majesty and the Queen have made for the people like us!"

"Three years ago, the Queen went to the border town in person to cheer for the soldiers of our army. She even went deep into the Kingdom of Qing to exchange for life-saving supplies for Northern Qi!"

"Three years have passed, and the war has started again. Wang is just a scholar, but he is also a man!"

"Wang is willing to use this flesh and blood to protect Northern Qi and our home!!"

As these words were spoken, the panicked people suddenly ignited hatred towards the Qing Kingdom.

They finally have a stable home, and they will fight to the death with anyone who wants to destroy it!
"Defeat the Qing Kingdom and protect our homeland!!"

"Defeat the Qing Kingdom and protect our homeland!!"
