In addition to the elite forbidden army, there is one of the most important reasons, that is, the surroundings of the imperial capital city have been designed by Bai Xing according to the method of trapping the formation technique, once the foreign enemy invades, then every inch of land is a natural danger that cannot be opened.

Therefore, there is absolutely no pressure to defend the city, the key is that when everyone leaves, is the person who guards the city loyal?

This is also the reason why Zhang Zhao wants to hand over this important task to Shang Bai, anyway, he is a native of Rongchang City, and it is impossible for him to give up his birthplace to others.

"Okay, when I go back, you two must support me unconditionally, no matter how others oppose it, you must support it. ”

After deliberating, the three of them returned to the palace together, and as soon as they returned, they immediately convened a meeting of 100 officials.

In the evening, all the dignitaries had already arrived in the palace.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, each sitting on both sides, the scene was once harmonious, without the slightest sign of chaos.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, I'll get straight to the point. This time, everyone was summoned over for one purpose, to go north to crusade against the Muhe Dynasty. ”

"Well, that's a good thing. ”

As soon as the words came out, a young general below said with a fanatical face: "Just wait for this battle, give me 20,000 soldiers and horses, and I can't capture two or three cities, I am not worthy of being this general." ”

As soon as they heard this, the generals below began to ask for battle, and at least they guaranteed to be able to take two cities.

Seeing that the generals were so belligerent, Zhang Zhao was very satisfied, and Zhengse said: "This time it will be divided into two armies, one side will be led by me personally to lead the Northern Expedition, and the other side will be led by Prime Minister Zhu Cheng to fight against the united million army, so it will be dispatched, except for the 200,000 soldiers and horses guarding the border pass and the 30,000 forbidden troops in the imperial capital, everyone will have to fight." ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent, everyone thought that this battle would be the same as before, and a general would come back with a 350,000 soldiers and horses to attack one or two cities, but now, Zhang Zhao wants to go out, it is simply a battle against the water, and if it is not successful, it will become a benevolent.

"I don't think this is right, king. First of all, the combined army is not the main force of the various dynasties, they are all eyeing us, and once we leave an empty city, then their main army will come immediately. How can only 30,000 forbidden troops resist the armies of all stripes? ”

A minor official in the north of the city was the first to stand up and say that there were many people who opposed it, but the people who opposed it were basically civilian officials, more rational, not as impulsive as the generals.

"Everyone, please listen to me"

At this time, Shang Bai stepped forward and said loudly: "The various dynasties do have heavy troops in hand, and there are three million main forces to drive us out alone, plus tens of millions of troops from all directions. But have you ever thought that because we have heavy troops in our hands and we are an empty city, they all want to annex us? So, will their hearts still be united, will there be a conflict before they attack us?"

"What if they unite to conquer the city and divide it?"

An old man came out and analyzed: "This kind of thing happens often, once we go out, they will inevitably unite again to attack us, once the city gate is breached, the wealth and land will definitely be divided, and at that time, our immortal dynasty will cease to exist." ”

"Alright, let's stop arguing. ”

Zhang Zhao stopped everyone's discussion, glanced at the old man, and asked, "Then this senior, I want to ask you, do you think it was the capital that achieved the Immortal Dynasty, or did the people achieve it?"

"Of course it's people, where there are people, there are cities, and naturally there is our eternal dynasty. ”

"Good!"

Zhang Zhao nodded and said loudly: "In this case, as long as the people of our whole city are always together, then even if the city is lost, we will come back sooner or later." ”

"But the king, three million people, how do you ensure that no one is lost under the premise of the city being breached?"

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Zhao grinned and said lightly: "Please put a hundred hearts on this point, I have my own way." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone began to talk again.

Among the civil officials, the old man is the capital who is opposed, and there are few opponents on the general's side, but there are few who support it, after all, this kind of thing is too serious, and a bad emperor will be lost.

"If the king really has a way to get everyone to move away, then I will support you, but you must remember that although the old man has no opinion, he only has one chance to break the trust of anyone, if you say that you can't do it, then don't blame the old man for looking down on you. ”

Seeing that this old man was very faced, but he was upright and spoke at a very high level, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but have a good impression of him.

"Originally, a teacher in the city had a lot of knowledge than Prime Minister Zhu. ”

Shang Bai leaned into Zhang Zhao's ear and introduced this gentleman.

Zhang Zhao nodded and said, "Okay, I remember the words of my predecessors, please rest assured, even if the city is destroyed, I will not let anyone be lost." ”

Zhang Zhao still wanted to use the Three Thousand Worlds to put people in, and Mr. Jin's words really reminded him that he couldn't rely on luck or guesswork to do things, and he had to make a foolproof strategy, in order to prevent the major dynasties from uniting to carve up the imperial capital after he left, so before that, most of the civilians were brought to the Three Thousand Worlds first, and they were just allowed to grow food there.

If there is a combined army attacking the city, then only need to let the remaining few people enter the Three Thousand Worlds, and finally let a cultivator bring the Three Thousand Worlds to the Purple Sun Sect, and the Immortal Emperor will give them all of them, and they can be taken back after they come back anyway.

"Senior Shang, after we leave, you come here to find Qingtian and them, and let them take you to Lao Jiu by yourself, and then you will know what to do. ”

Hearing this, Shang Bai nodded silently and didn't say anything.

"Okay, since everyone has no opinions, then it has been decided, early tomorrow morning, each military camp will organize its own dinner, and after the end, let the soldiers and brothers take turns to rest for a day to accompany their families, and after three days, send troops to fight. ”

Time is abundant, but it is also intense.

Zhang Zhao only has ten years to prepare, but for a battle, it is normal to fight for ten years and eight years, there are eight dynasties on this continent, if each dynasty fights for ten years, then before reunification, people from another world will bring people over.

Therefore, it was necessary to shorten the duration of the war to one dynasty per year, and then prepare for unification in the last two years.
