Chapter 527: A Showmanship
"Your Majesty, even if the minister has the courage, he doesn't dare to deceive the emperor, let alone joke with the emperor about this." When Shen Yan heard the emperor's words, a faint smile flashed in his eyes, and he already knew that the emperor had agreed to his request to form a servant army in his heart, so Shen Yan's face showed a sincere smile and said slowly.
"Shen Yan, I agree to your request to form a servant army, and after you defeat the White Lotus Sect, I will take over the servant army and pay the corresponding military salary, during this period, you will be responsible for all the expenses of the servant army, and the court will not provide for it." Sure enough, when the emperor heard Shen Yan's words, an indifferent smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then a touch of seriousness appeared on his face.
"Wechen thanked the emperor." Shen Yan hurriedly bowed to the emperor, a touch of righteousness appeared on his face, and he said loudly.
"Shen Yan, I ask you, how sure are you that you will go to Huaibei County to conquer the White Lotus Sect this time?" Xia Qi pondered for a moment, a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes, he didn't want to ask this question, but he still asked it.
"Back to the emperor, the disparity between the strength of the enemy and me is large, and no one can say the changes in the battlefield, if you have to say a few percent of the certainty, the minister thought about it seriously, if there is no servant army, just the Great Xia royal army, the odds of winning for Weichen are less than one percent, if you add the servant army, the odds of winning are not more than three percent." Shen Yan pondered for a moment, a helpless smile appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly.
"Of course, the probability of this chance of winning is not absolute, the key depends on whether the people of the White Lotus Sect will follow Wechen's tactics, if the White Lotus Sect ignores Wechen's tactics, then Wechen's chance of winning is almost zero, but if the White Lotus Sect follows Wechen's tactics, Wechen can create a fifty percent chance of winning."
"Well, what you said is very good, there is no blind arrogance, no pessimism, but according to the changes in the battlefield, as long as you keep this calm at all times, I believe you can create miracles." After listening to Shen Yan's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Xia Qi's mouth, knowing that Shen Yan was telling the truth.
"This time to conquer the White Lotus Sect, I will let the old eighteen take command, after all, the later stage will involve how you coordinate the strategic deployment of the Jinling front army, if I let you hang this name, Luo Yuhui will definitely not obey you, after all, his military rank is higher than yours, and his qualifications are older than yours, even if I give you this name, the Jinling front army will not be convinced. Of course, the Jinling former army will not serve the eighteenth, but after all, he is my son, and this identity alone makes the Jinling former army dare not make trouble, and you will not have any extraneous branches when you command it. ”
"Of course, I will greet the old eighteenth, and he only carries his ears in military matters, and does not interfere in any of your military deployments, so although the old eighteen is in the name of the commander, the actual commander is still you."
"The emperor's consideration has avoided the embarrassment of Weichen and Luo Zongbing, and Weichen is here to thank the emperor." Hearing the emperor's arrangement, a bright smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, as if he didn't take these reputations seriously at all, and his eyes showed a touch of sincerity, and he said sincerely.
"Okay, your thoughts Xu Sanyuan has already told me, plus your response this time, I already know all about your deployment, the battle situation is severe, what else do you need from me, when do you plan to lead the army to Huaibei County?" Xia Qi's eyes flashed with expectation, looked at Shen Yan's bright eyes, and said slowly.
"Back to the emperor, the training of the Great Xia Royal Army has never been interrupted, and there are materials and equipment, and there is no shortage in this regard." Hearing the emperor's inquiry, a trace of contemplation flashed in Shen Yan's eyes, and then he said aloud.
"As for when to lead the army to leave, Wechen thought about it for a while, Wechen decided to lead the Great Xia Royal Army to leave quietly tonight, just like last time, quietly lead the army to leave, after all, Wechen does not dare to guarantee that Ling does not have the eyes and ears of the White Lotus Sect, if he openly makes a move, the news of the failure will reach the ears of the White Lotus Sect, which will affect the strategic deployment of Wechen."
"Okay, I understand what you mean, you want to attack it unprepared, this idea is very good, I won't follow the pledge meeting before the expedition, I am waiting for your good news in Jinling, in this process, if you have any good ideas and requirements, just mention it to me, as long as it is reasonable, I will definitely do my best to meet your requirements." Xia Qi is not an emperor who sticks to a fixed form, hearing Shen Yan's words, Xia Qi's eyes showed an inexplicable look, according to common sense, everything is a huge oath meeting before going out, but Shen Yan's idea is not impossible, so Xia Qi also acquiesced to Shen Yan's idea.
"Weichen thanked the emperor, the Royal Army of Great Xia will always be the emperor's soldiers, and they don't dare to ask for anything, they will only gallop across the battlefield according to the emperor's will." A blazing light appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, and he met Xia Qi's eyes and said loudly.
"If all my soldiers in Great Xia are like Shen Yan and you, I can't realize the grand plan in my heart." Hearing Shen Yan's impassioned words, a flash of excitement flashed in Xia Qi's eyes, how many years have passed, he seems to have forgotten such feelings, but he didn't expect Shen Yan's words today to stir up a deep hidden string in Xia Qi's heart.
"It is the honor of Weichen to lead the Great Xia Royal Army to gallop the territory for the emperor, and it is the honor of all the officers and soldiers of the Great Xia Royal Army." Shen Yan's eyes flashed with a surging battle intent, and he said loudly.
"Okay, you help me transfer to the soldiers of the Great Xia Royal Army, and after this battle, I will not hesitate to reward." Although Xia Qi felt that Shen Yan's performance was a little exaggerated, he was still attracted by Shen Yan's performance, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he said sonorously.
"I'll give you a holy decree, you take the old eighteen to Huaibei County tonight."
"Your Majesty, can you make a small request before Weichen leaves?" Shen Yan's eyes rolled slightly, and he changed his previous impassioned demeanor, and he suddenly became a little obscene.
"Say it." Xia Qi saw the change in Shen Yan's expression, and couldn't help but be stunned in his eyes, he just said that he didn't have any requirements, and he bought himself before leaving.
"Your Majesty, you also know that this time when you go to attack the White Lotus Sect, if you start purely from a military point of view, even if Wechen does not have an absolute chance of winning, Wechen will work hard to create a miracle, but there are too many masters of the White Lotus Sect, once the Wechen strategy works, the White Lotus Sect is angry and takes a beheading action against Wechen, then Wechen will not have the power to fight back."
