In the study, Qin Zhao and several other adults were discussing countermeasures in the sand table at this time, when they suddenly heard a blast and the guards outside the door quickly came to report.

"A yellow firework flashed outside the emperor, and two yellow fireworks flashed in a row!"

The guards outside the door reported in a timely manner, Qin Zhao nodded, the expression on his face was a little solemn, the Queen Mother was summoning his soldiers to launch an attack.

"Have you ever observed how many troops there are at the south gate?"

"Back at the south gate of the emperor, the estimated strength is expected to be between two thousand and five thousand, it is already dark night, they are all lurking, it is difficult to estimate the specific number, our troops are now gathered at the south gate, and it is only two thousand."

The guards under his command reported back to Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao nodded again after listening to it, in terms of quantity, it is obvious that the number of troops in the south gate is far inferior to the queen mother, but these guards in the palace are carefully trained on weekdays, and they have a certain amount of experience in combat, and they are also very familiar with all parts of the palace, I believe that they can resist it, but these two continuous fireworks mean that the soldiers outside the city will attack.

"The meaning of the two fireworks is that the soldiers outside the city will forcibly attack the city, but I don't know how many soldiers there are outside the city now."

Qin Zhao's words came out, and the rest of the people were a little silent in an instant, now it is clear how many troops they have, but how many men and horses this enemy has, what is the strategy, they still can't figure it out, and now their terrain is a little lower, and the queen mother can see their every move, and can follow their actions to deploy troops, so they are in a disadvantageous position.

"Captain Li, you lead 10,000 troops and go to the gate of the East City to garrison!"

Qin Zhao recaptured behind his back with his hands behind his back, and after a few steps, he finally made this decision, as soon as this decision was said, the other three ministers were stunned, there are four gates in this capital, but now Qin Zhao only asked him to lead troops to guard this east gate, what should I do with these other gates?

"Your Majesty, now the Queen Mother's troops don't know where they are scattered, if we only defend the East Gate now, if the Queen Mother attacks from the other two gates, what should we do?"

Taiwei Li's worried appearance made Qin Zhao frown, he naturally knew that it was risky to do so, but now he has insufficient troops in the capital, and the Queen Mother's troops don't know how much, in comparison, the east gate is the best part to attack, and the west gate, north gate and south gate are both prominent positions.

The city gate is so high that it is not easy to break, and these gates have just been rebuilt last year and the city wall has been erected a lot higher, for the queen mother, if he is smart enough, he will find a gap to attack, and this east gate was built many years ago, which is estimated to be a little loose.

If the queen mother chooses to attack, it is estimated that she will attack from the east gate, so he can only press all his forces at the east gate, as long as he holds the east gate, he will hold the entire capital, so that the people in the capital do not have to be turbulent for this war.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient, we don't know how many troops the Queen Mother has now, but there are not many troops in the capital, and what can be sent to you is only these 10,000 troops to suppress all the troops, and it is also considered with evidence at the East Gate, and the East Gate is the easiest to attack. One of my understanding of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother must also be very familiar with the structure of the capital, so she will choose to attack the East Gate from the East Gate, if it is broken, it can go straight to the palace, I think the Queen Mother also understands this truth, so we can only gamble now. ”

Qin Zhao's words resolved their doubts, and after a silence, Taiwei Li also knew that this matter could not be delayed any longer, now that the Queen Mother had issued an order, there would soon be soldiers from the east gate or other gates, and now he could only put the bet on this east gate and take the soldiers to the east gate.

"The minister understands, the minister will go to handle this matter, take 10,000 troops to the east gate to garrison, swear to defend the east gate to the death, and never let the queen mother, the old witch, succeed!"

Taiwei Li knelt down, and after receiving the order, he left Qin Zhao, with his hands behind his back at this time, and the expression on his face was also very anxious.

"Lord Huang, although there are tens of thousands of troops in the capital, but at this time do not dare to rush out, if the capital is settled, then at least in the country can be saved, will not change the dynasty, and there are too many important hubs in the capital, if we lose other places at present, we can temporarily lose, but this capital must be guarded, I know that you used to be a military general, and I also cooperated on the battlefield, and now I give you 20,000 troops, you have been training these days, you must train these 20,000 troops into elite soldiers!"

Qin Zhao was still a little uneasy and explained to Lord Huang, after hearing this, Lord Huang knelt down on the ground, folded his hands, and should have undertaken this errand, after Lord Huang left, only Qin Zhao and Song Qingping were in this study.

The expression on Song Qingping's face at this time also looked very solemn, the old woman of the Queen Mother was very treacherous, she chose such a day, when the palace and even the entire capital were unguarded, and all the troops had been dispersed, the Queen Mother came out like this.

"Lord Song, what do you think about this matter?"

Qin Zhao sighed silently, and asked Song Qingping in front of him, Song Qingping also knelt down and said nothing after hearing this, Qin Zhao knew that Song Qingping was also caught off guard by this matter, except for Snow White in the entire palace, no one knew that this incident would usher in tonight, and it was not safe in this palace at this time, Qin Zhao frowned tightly.

"I called you here because I know that you are the most central and smartest in this court, and you have a deep affection for the queen!"

As soon as Qin Zhao finished saying this, Song Qingping raised his head in horror, the expression on his face was a little shocked, and he didn't understand why Qin Zhao said these words to him at such a time.

"The emperor today is Chen's big day, since Chen has visited the hall with Snow White, he is already a husband and wife and has promised to live and die together, although there was a sense of admiration for the queen, but now there is no reverie in the heart of the minister!"

Although Song Qingping was a little puzzled, he still said to Qin Zhao about Qin Zhao, and after listening to it, he nodded and waved his hand, what he wanted to say to Song Qingping was naturally not these, he also knew that Song Qingping's feelings for Guan Tongshu in his heart had already been put down, and he also knew that Song Qingping was a person who did what he said.

"Lord Song don't have to worry too much, I naturally know that you and Snow White have become married, so you have taken her as a wife, but now it is turbulent, this palace looks like a safe high-walled compound, but in fact, the Queen Mother's ambition is here, so this palace is actually the most unsafe, and I am worried that if Guan Tongshu stays in this palace, I am afraid that she will also become the target of the Queen Mother."
