"Underestimate the capabilities of the Interior Ministry? Master Ye, I think you are too high to see their abilities! Is the development of Taiping Religion in Kansai, Beiyuan, Yanyun and other places only today? Isn't it, the Taiping Sect has been breeding in the empire for more than ten years, what is the internal affairs department doing? It turns out that the boasted world is the 'peace' of the Taiping religion? No wonder the demagogic slogan put forward by those anti-thieves turned out to be 'peaceful world, peaceful world'! At this time, Lord He said that the internal affairs department was capable enough to control the security of the imperial capital, how could this be convincing? ”

Ning Yuanwang, the first vice minister of the Imperial Administration who joined Ye Xianggao's camp, spoke harshly, and even the Minister of the Interior was involved.

In the face of the opponent's fierce offensive, Ye Xianggao couldn't help but feel discouraged, he also knew that what the other party said was the truth, and there was a certain amount of truth, but the other party's purpose was definitely not out of public intentions, and the current situation was so urgent, he really couldn't delay it at all, he couldn't help but fight with reason.

"If you oppose the Castle Guard Corps into the Kansai Battlefield, then I would like to ask you, how should the Kansai War situation be handled? What should be done about the situation in the north? Ye Xianggao turned from defense to offense and asked rhetorically.

"Lord He, it stands to reason that this is a matter of the military department, but I also want to remind you, didn't we have four divisions thrown into the battlefield of the Principality of Gelok? Now that the situation on Gerok's side has stabilized, why can't those four divisions be withdrawn and put into the Kansai or northern war? ”

Yusuf originally felt that his tone was a little too heavy after saying his opinion, and he wanted to explain, but he didn't expect to get the support of Pique and Ning Yuanwang. The waist pole also stiffened, and the big shape was built.

This Jian yì immediately resonated with many ministers in the palace, yes. At present, the empire is in deep internal and external troubles, and the troops are stretched, and the troops drawn from any place will leave sequelae, and the imperial army on the battlefield of the Principality of Gerok was originally sent out of support, and the current situation in Gerok has been relatively stable, and the large-scale attack of the Kamans on the Gerok side has basically stopped, and now the battlefield is just a small-scale local conflict. Neither side has committed the main forces, which can be transferred from Gerok to the forces previously invested.

Seeing that even the emperor's face showed a look of deep disapproval, Ye Xianggao secretly complained. He also knew that someone would definitely propose this proposal, after all, the empire was in great trouble and urgently needed army strength, and on the surface, it seemed that the battle situation in Gelok was not prosperous. Let the outside world seem to have stabilized. However, he himself knew that this was only a superficial appearance, and that the Kaman people were in the battle situation of the Principality of Gerook, whether it was the battlefield in the Vanlin region in the northeast or the battlefield in the Jiama region in the west, although the number of their armies was similar to that of the Empire and the Principality of Gerook, their combat effectiveness exceeded that of the coalition army by a lot, especially compared with the army of the Principality of Gerook, the combat effectiveness of the Kaman army was far surpassing.

If the Imperial Army really withdrew from the battlefield of the Principality of Gelok, Ye Xianggao dared to assert. Within three months, Gerelok would be in the possession of the Kamans. When the time comes, the empire will lose the thick natural barrier of Gerok, and the Kamantian army will be able to point directly at the central hinterland of the empire, which is almost flat and unobstructed, how should the empire respond?

After calming down for a moment, Ye Xianggao first saluted to His Majesty the Emperor, and then glanced at the three of them coldly before saying, "I don't know how Lord Yusuf would have such an idea?" Could it be that Lord Yusuf is convinced that the combined forces of the Empire and the Principality of Gerlok have absolute superiority over the Kamanes? ”

Ye Xianggao's words were no longer as polite as before, and they seemed a little sharp and abrupt.

Facing the tough questioning of his boss, Yusuf was a little nervous, but he was not very afraid of relying on the fact that he was the emperor's cronies, and quietly glanced at the expressionless emperor who was sitting on the upper side, Yusuf had a smile on his face, he didn't want to make the relationship with the Minister of War too stiff, and said slowly: "Lord Ye, I think you misunderstood me, I didn't say that the coalition army had any advantage over the Kamantian army, but the empire is in this extremely dangerous and bad situation, I think the first thing we should consider is the security of the empire, and everything else should be put on the back burner. As Lord Ning said, this Taiping Sect has been operating in the empire for more than ten years, but the internal affairs department of the empire did not notice the problem until a few years ago. Then who can clearly find out how many Taiping rebels there are in the imperial capital? ”

"This emperor is not better than other places, but the center of gravity of the empire, once something really goes wrong, it will affect the entire empire, the responsibility is not something you and I can bear, so to speak, the imperial capital must not have any problems, and we can't afford any problems, we would rather be cautious, as for the loss of other places, we can find a way to fight back, so the lower officials are resolutely opposed to drawing a soldier from the imperial capital, as for Lord Ye, he is against drawing troops from the battlefield of Gerook, As long as Lord Ye can raise troops from other places to solve the immediate problem, I have no objection. Yusuf finished his opinion with a smile.

Yusuf's words were reasonable, and immediately won the support of almost all the ministers in the palace, although he couldn't see the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor, but Ye Xianggao knew that if he couldn't come up with a well-reasoned opinion, I was afraid that his plan would be rejected, but could his opinion and reason impress these people here? Ye Xianggao was not sure, because the survival of the Principality of Gerok was compared to the safety of the imperial capital, none of the ministers present would think that Gerok would be more important, even if the risk of an accident in the imperial capital was small, they would not take this risk.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Xianggao's face was grim, he pondered his wording, and then raised his eyebrows and said: "I don't want to comment too much on Lord Yusuff's opinion, I just want to reiterate one point, that is, the elite Praetorian Guards of the empire in the imperial capital are as many as 100,000 people, can't they deal with the so-called possible Taiping Sect rebellion?" Lord Yusuf is too underestimated by the Praetorian Guards! ”

Ye Xianggao knew that the relationship between the two armies of the city guard and the Praetorian Guard had always been not harmonious, and Yusuf and Ma Yuanxiang were even more at odds with each other, and the two often slandered each other in order to compete for favor in front of the emperor, and the emperor didn't care about it. At the moment, if you want to move the emperor's contempt, you must hold the Praetorian Guard, even if the means are a little unbright, you have to take care of it. (To be continued......)
