Chapter 6: Prepare for War!

The officials, who were still silent, listened to Xu Chuan's words, and suddenly their hearts were a little worried.

One by one, they lowered their eyebrows and looked up at Xu Chuan in disbelief, full of incredulity.

You must know that Xu Chuan before was a puppet faint monarch who didn't care about government affairs at all, and only knew how to indulge in pleasure.

But now Xu Chuan not only killed Li Yi and his party with the momentum of turning the tide, but also uprooted the fine work of Chu State.

What's even more terrifying is that Xu Chuan also took the initiative to issue an edict to the world.

And at this time, Xu Chuan also summoned all their officials to discuss the enemy's plan together!

It's unbelievable!

The officials and the crowd look at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and I can't believe that this fact can be true for a while, for fear that I am dreaming.

Not to mention the suggestion that someone has spoken.

"What's ......" Xu Chuan shook his head and smiled when he saw that the officials were so unbelievable, and then his complexion returned to calm and natural, and teased, "Could it be ...... Do you want me to wake up, and would you rather I always be a corrupt and spurned king? ”

Xu Chuan stared at the hundred officials indifferently, he knew that there was not much time left, and there was only half an hour left for them to prepare.

But the most important thing at the moment is to stabilize the government and stabilize the hearts of the people.

Now, the quickest and most effective solution is for him to do so, only by gaining the convincing of the hundred officials can he unanimously fight against the enemy.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

In an instant, all the officials who came back to their senses bowed their heads with tears in their eyes, and they were so excited that they couldn't speak.

Over the years, many of the officials have been oppressed by Li Yi, and there is nowhere to redress their grievances.

Now that Li Yi, a traitor, has been eliminated from the party, everyone is sincerely relieved, and they are once again full of expectations for the future of Huaguo.

"Wait a minute, let's not talk about it for the time being, let's talk about how to retreat from the enemy first."

Xu Chuan saw that the loyalty of the hundred officials and everyone to him had been greatly improved, and he was too lazy to say anything else, so he asked straight to the point: "Everyone, Aiqing, what is the best way to retreat from the enemy, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

Although Xu Chuan already knew where the Chu army would sneak attack later, as the king of a country, he didn't have to bow down to everything.

Otherwise, what is the use of asking such ordinary courtiers to come?

Therefore, Xu Chuan just waited calmly for everyone to offer advice, so that the official positions of the hundred officials could be adjusted slightly.

At this time, a person came out of the crowd and said, "Your Majesty, the weakest city in our country is the West City Gate. The minister thought that since Li Yi's thieves colluded with the Chu army, and the Chu army had also sent fine work into the city, they would presumably attack the west city gate. ”

"Your Majesty can do what you want, you don't have to tell the people about this matter first, but take this opportunity to lead the Chu army into the West City Gate. Then come to an urn to catch turtles, and you will definitely be able to cut through the sharp spirit of the Chu army! ”

"As for the two armies if they fight head-on, with General Xu here, my Hua State - I am not afraid of Chu State at all!"

The military department Shangshu Zhuge Jun held it with both hands, and said with a serious look on his face.

However, at this time, another person stood up and retorted: "Your Majesty must not do this! Your Majesty, the army of Chu is fierce and brave, and our army has not practiced for a long time, if once the Chu army is allowed to enter the West City Gate, the safety of the palace will be in jeopardy, please think twice! ”

"Counselor He, you are greedy for life and afraid of death!" Zhuge Jun, the secretary of the military department, immediately stood up, widened his eyes and retorted: "Now that the Chu army is about to come to the city, if you don't let go of such a great opportunity, dare to ask Counselor He...... What do you have to do? ”

Counselor He Yong was stunned for a moment, and then he no longer looked at Zhuge Jun more, but said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the strength of our army is not as strong as the Chu army, and once the Chu army breaks through the West City Gate, we will definitely be defeated." ”

"Your Majesty may wish to ...... You can first send an envoy to negotiate peace with the Chu army, and then, let's first taoguang and recuperate for a while, and then make another plan! ”

Counselor He Yong solemnly arched his fists, with a decent face.

"That's!"

Zhuge Jun, the secretary of the military department, was so angry that his face turned red on the spot, and he just wanted to say anything else, when Xu Ze stood up.

Xu Ze glared at Counselor He Yong fiercely, and then arched his hand and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to make a military order here, if the last general can't keep the west city gate, the last general is willing to come to see him!" ”

Xu Ze said loudly, and tightened the long sword on his waist even harder, and his full confidence was revealed on his cheeks.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also for the sake of the country's society, and please ask Your Majesty to investigate!" Counselor He Yong once again did not give up and proposed.

Seeing their arguing, Xu Chuan immediately understood who was good and who was bad, and pressed his hand down lightly, and the other controversial voices in the hundred officials were immediately suppressed, and they all looked at Xu Chuan.

"You don't have to argue anymore, I ...... There's already an idea! ”

Xu Chuan withdrew his expression, then looked at Xu Ze, and said with a sharp look in his eyes: "Xu Ze, I ordered you to lead an army of 50,000 to meet the enemy head-on, and I personally led the Imperial Forest Army to guard the West City Gate, and there is no need to discuss this matter again." The Zhongqing family is staying in the palace, waiting for my triumphant return! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xu Ze immediately nodded happily, full of fighting spirit.

However, at this time, the hundred officials and everyone were stunned in an instant, and the counselor He Yong was a little flustered, and his hands couldn't help but tremble imperceptibly.

"Your Majesty, no!"

"No, Your Majesty, you are a golden body, you must not take such a risk!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, please think twice......"

As soon as He Yong spoke, all the officials and everyone immediately followed suit.

Xu Chuan couldn't help glaring at them fiercely, this cold look suddenly made everyone feel cold down their spines, and there was no sound of persuasion in an instant.

At this time, Xu Chuan stood up, slowly walked down from the dragon chair, and stood among the crowd.

When he suddenly looked back, he glanced at Xiao Lizi and Xiao Xuanzi, and Xu Chuan ordered: "You two bring a thousand imperial forest troops to guard the palace, if anyone tries to take the opportunity to escape, they will all be killed!" ”

Xu Chuan said with his own majesty, and in his words, there was a look of indisputable beak.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xiao Lizi and the two nodded in unison, and immediately took action.

It didn't take long for the Imperial Forest Army to arrive, surrounding the entire Weiyang Palace.

"Second brother, follow me!" Xu Chuan nodded with satisfaction to Xiao Li Zi and the others, then called Xu Ze, and went out of Weiyang Palace together.

And at this moment, although everyone is very worried, no one wants to escape.

Only He Yong and a few officials behind him looked at each other for a while, looking at each other and not knowing what to do.

Looking at the surrounded and impenetrable hall of Weiyang Palace, they gathered together restlessly, not knowing what they were discussing in a low voice...

Out of Weiyang Palace, Xu Ze led the army to the main gate of the city wall tower, set up a formation, and be ready for battle at any time.

And Xu Chuan led 5,000 Imperial Forest troops to the West City Gate.

"What's your name?" After stopping his steps, Xu Chuan pointed to one of the Imperial Forest Soldiers and asked.

The Imperial Forest Army immediately straightened up and replied, "Your Majesty, your subordinate Lin Meng." ”

"Lin Meng......?" Xu Chuan glanced at him and nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, it's you." ”

Immediately, Xu Chuan beckoned to him, and Lin Meng stood respectfully in front of Xu Chuan.

"Lin Meng, I order you to take this token out of the West City Gate and go to the West Gate Inn 'Tianzi No. 1 Room' to report the news."

Xu Chuan took out Li Yi's token, stared at Lin Meng, and continued to instruct word by word, "You said that you can attack Xicheng at noon, Prime Minister Li Cheng is waiting for you here, and after the report is completed, he will come back immediately." ”

Lin Meng was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, and suddenly said with joy in his heart: "...... Yes, Your Majesty! ”

At the same time, Lin Meng's loyalty to Xu Chuan also changed from seventy-eight points to one hundred points, and after receiving the token handed to him, he quickly left the city.

As for the rest of the Royal Forest Army, they are hiding in the favorable terrain around the West City Gate, making an ambush and waiting for the big fish to take the bait.
