It is estimated that many men want to be a king surrounded by beautiful people and never go to court early, but nine times out of ten, the end of doing so is to lose the country and become a slave.

After a few days of escape, Li Nan had to leave these charming beauties to discuss some political affairs with his courtiers.

Generally speaking, hatred is much stronger than other emotions, so in the main hall, the first thing that everyone studied was to prepare to punish the ungrateful Song Kingdom.

Regarding the matter of sending troops to aid the Song Dynasty, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty did not approve of it, but now after knowing the details of this matter, they are even more angry!

Speaking of which, this time the actions of the monarchs and ministers of the Song State are really incomprehensible.

First of all, Huizong Zhao Ji completely ignored the 60,000 Western Route Army led by Yan Zonghan, and transferred away the 100,000 troops of the Seed Master Dao who were supposed to relieve the siege of Taiyuan, and also gathered 200,000 people, so that the army mobilized the people only to encircle and suppress the more than 20,000 imperial expeditionary forces that had helped them.

From this incident, it can be judged that in the heart of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, the Chinese Empire in the south is the enemy he cares about the most and wants to get rid of, and the Jin State is second.

It's an honor to be taken seriously by others, but it's a matter of when.

The loss of the empire's most elite 20,000 soldiers in the territory of the Song State should be the heaviest loss of the Chinese Empire so far.

Spartacus, the commander of the First Army of the Royal Army, was also from the Roman world, although he was not too familiar with Juno and Elican at the beginning, but they were all brothers from the same gladiatorial arena, so after hearing the news of the death of these two, he was extremely angry.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the First Army directly to the north, capture the Emperor of the Song Kingdom, and hand it over to you for disposal!"

"Spartacus, don't fight with me this time!" The commander of the Second Legion, Cress, walked out of the military attache train on the right side of the Golden Palace, and said in a loud voice: "Juno and Elican can't die in vain, I want to avenge them!" ”

When Cress was in the Roman world, he was the famous god of war of Capua and the leader of all gladiators, and he spent a long time with the Juno brothers, so when he heard about their deaths, he was anxious to seek justice for them.

Spartacus and Cress didn't look at each other when they were at a long angle, and at this moment, in order to compete for the opportunity to attack the Song Kingdom, the two quarreled on the Jinluan Palace.

Both of them have followed Li Nan for many years, not only have they taken the lead in hard work, but also have no problems with their loyalty, so although their current behavior is a bit rude, Li Nan, who is sitting on the dragon chair, has no intention of blaming them.

Although Li Nan didn't say anything, some people couldn't watch it.

"Quiet!" A tall, dark-skinned general scolded.

In the Chinese Empire, in addition to Li Nan and several of his concubines, Spartacus and Kress can be said to be not afraid of heaven and earth, but they are both respectful and afraid of a person.

This man is the iron-faced and selfless Docot.

Dorcott was also from the Roman world, and he was essentially the master of the likes of Cress, Spartacus, and Leenan.

Today, Docott is the vice-principal of the Imperial Royal Military Academy, and although he has no real power in his hands, Kress and Spartacus, who are the commanders of the two major legions, are in awe of him.

Seeing Docott stand up, the two generals who were so hot suddenly wilted and closed their mouths one after another.

The hall finally quieted down, and Li Nan, who was sitting on it watching the play, straightened up and asked, "Tyrion, do you think our army is suitable to attack the Song State now?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty." Tyrion, who was short in stature but no one dared to underestimate him, walked out of the civil official queue and said, "According to the force of the empire, our army is fully capable of capturing the entire territory of the Song Kingdom, but the minister does not recommend this. ”

Hearing this, many generals who were bent on attacking the Song Kingdom suddenly looked at him with ugly faces.

Li Nan didn't want his few advisers to be misunderstood by others, so he hurriedly said, "You tell me in detail." ”

"Yes!" Tyrion explained, "Since ancient times, it has been easy to attack an enemy country, but it is even more difficult to capture the enemy's land and cities. ”

Tyrion was right, when the empire was first established, there was a lack of officials at the grassroots level, so all of the civil and military officials present had the experience of managing one side.

It was a headache for the people to deal with the areas newly occupied by the enemy.

Because they can't be too strict with the people, for fear of causing civil unrest, and they can't allow some people to indulge and cause trouble.

Seeing that the ministers in the palace were all thoughtful, Tyrion smiled and continued: "Before the establishment of the Chinese Empire, Your Majesty had a great plan to establish a large number of schools in various places, and after all these years of training, a large number of low-level officials have completed their studies and have been sent to serve in various parts of the empire. ”

"Now that the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Defense have some talent reserves, according to the calculations of our General Staff, it is best not to have more than three state capitals that the empire can quickly digest after occupying it."

After listening to Tyrion's analysis and explanation, the ministers in the palace understood what he meant, and noticed the look of Li Nan on the dragon chair, and the ministers realized that this seemed to be the emperor's idea as well.

Although it can only occupy the three state capitals of the Song State at most, now the empire from the ministers to the common people hope to teach the ungrateful Song State some lessons and blows, so this is enough.

Most of the territory of the Chinese Empire now mentions the Yangtze River basin, and at present, south of the Yangtze River, the state capital that still belongs to the Song State is left with Liangzhejiang Road and Jiangnan East Road.

As long as these two state capitals of the Song State were captured, all the territories of the empire north of the Yangtze River would be connected in a line, not to mention the value of the two places, but the strategic value alone would be inevitable.

After understanding Emperor Li Nan's intentions, the ministers of the Golden Palace immediately took action, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ludia, immediately drafted a harshly worded war letter and ordered the messenger to send it to the Song State.

Kress and Spartacus, who were full of anger and anxious to fight, also got their wish, and Li Nan ordered them to lead their respective infantry corps and prepare to attack Liangzhejiang Road and Jiangnan East Road.

Li Nan, the emperor of the empire, gave an order, and the whole country was rapidly operated, and all the information about the two state capitals of the Song State was quickly sent to the General Staff, and after analyzing the enemy's intelligence, a detailed battle plan was formulated for the two major armies.

There is also a part of the Song State Naval Division in the Jiangnan region, so this time Asha will also take the 'Sea King' and lead the Royal Navy's Yellow Sea Fleet to support from the sea.

Just as the imperial army was preparing to attack, the letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire was also sent to Zhao Huan, the Qinzong of the Tokyo City of the Song Kingdom, as quickly as possible.
