The enthronement ceremony was very important to Ji Wen.

Because he was the king who ascended the throne through Emperor Yan's edict after Emperor Yan died and the throne of Great Yan was suspended for a long time, and the content of the edict was only known to Bai Jin, Li Muzhi, Pei Wenju and Ji Qingchen, and everyone was not clear, so it was a bit unjustifiable.

Therefore, the enthronement ceremony was held to send a message to the ministers and the people of Dayan that the new emperor of Dayan, Ji Wen, had a bright future for the throne, and that he was the king of the throne of Dayan who was dignified and upright, not a monarch who used despicable means to obtain the throne by necessary means.

The enthronement ceremony was huge, and after the deliberations of Ji Qingchen, Pei Wenju and Li Muzhi, it was decided that all officials above the eighth rank in King's Landing City had the right to participate.

Therefore, the number of people who participated in the enthronement ceremony reached 600, which is unprecedented!

When Ji Wen was wearing a yellow robe and a crown on his head, and strode down the dragon bowl, he was also shocked by the scene in front of him, and saw that the black pressure on the Zongmiao Square was full of ministers of Dayan, and there was no end in sight.

"Your Majesty, the enthronement ceremony is about to begin!" Wei Zhongxian on the side reminded.

At the beginning, he was the most important person in Emperor Yan, and he also controlled the spy department of Dayan. Therefore, after Ji Wen ascended the throne, he kept Wei Zhongxian by his side, just like Emperor Yan favored Wei Zhongxian at the beginning, and he trusted Wei Zhongxian very much.

"Yes!" Ji Wen hurriedly retracted his thoughts and climbed the steps of the main hall of the temple step by step, and the ministers who followed him were the heads of the six Shangshu and various departments and the disciples of the Ji royal family, in addition to the bigwigs of the political hall and the Privy Council.

Among them, Ji Qingchen followed closely behind Ji Wen.

Because he is the king of Dayan, his position has surpassed that of the prime minister and the privy envoy, second only to the existence of the Emperor Dayan, and the royal robe on his body is also the same as that of the prince.

However, today's Ji Qingchen is not like the past, his face is solemn, the cold light in his eyes is flickering, and his momentum is a little scary. Because just last night he received a war report from the south, saying that the Lingnan Yi vanguard army had invaded Jinzhou, and they did everything to burn, kill and loot wherever they went, and only captured ten cities in Jinzhou.

In this way, Ji Qingchen was very angry, he didn't expect the army of the Lingnan Yi clan to be so arrogant and murderous.

In addition, Shu'er and Master Li and Ji Changkong are also among the children of the royal family.

For Ji Changkong, he was originally a child of the royal family, and he was named the king of Beiyun County by Ji Wen, he was qualified to participate in the enthronement ceremony, but for Shu'er and Master Li, the two of them were able to participate in such a grand ceremony because of Ji Wen.

After Ji Wen ascended the main hall of the Zongmiao and held a series of ceremonies under the auspices of Pei Wenju, the enthronement hall was over, and the rest was to return to the Taiji Hall to set up a banquet to entertain the ministers.

Originally, with Ji Qingchen's power and position, he should have presided over the enthronement hall, but he refused, because Ji Wen's reward for him was high enough, it was enough to make people blush and jealous, and he didn't want to be too high-profile because he presided over the enthronement hall.

After arriving at the Taiji Palace, after the banquet, Ji Wen summoned Ji Qingchen, Bai Jin, Li Muzhi, Pei Wenju and Ye Qingzhi to the imperial study to discuss the enemy's situation.

For Ningzhou, there are Bai Xiangcheng and Liu Donglou, as well as Ji Qian as the supervising army, the three of them are the powerful generals of the Young Zhuang faction of the Dayan military, and it is already the most luxurious lineup sent by Dayan to deal with Mu Feng, and now it depends on the performance of the three of them, so everyone is not too worried, such a luxurious lineup, and an army of 600,000, even if you can't defeat Mu Feng's 400,000 iron horses, you can still do it to prevent Mu Feng's 400,000 iron horses from going south!

What really worries everyone is Jinju in the south.

Unlike the Liguo Iron Cavalry, the Lingnan Yi people are brutal and unbearable, as long as the city is captured by them, the people of Dayan have no chance to live.

This kind of bestiality has aroused the horror of the people of dozens of cities in Jinju that have not yet been captured, and when they saw that the Dayan court had not sent reinforcements to come, they had already spontaneously organized to block the Lingnan Yi tribe, and remembered the meaning of the rebellion.

This is a sharp sword hanging over Dayan's head!

"Privy Envoy, tell me about the war situation in the south!" Ji Wen said worriedly.

"The Lingnan Yi army is advancing towards Jinju on the third road!" Pastor Li pondered for a while and said, "The main army of 200,000 is led by Sang Xiong, and they are still resting in Yizhou, but with the marching speed of the Lingnan Yi tribe, they can set foot on the border of Jinzhou in three days, and the 60,000 vanguard army sent by Sang Xiong has entered Jinzhou, captured dozens of cities in Jinzhou, burned and looted, and is now approaching Jinzhou City, it seems that they want to take the opportunity to take Jinzhou City in one go, and the remaining 40,000 foot soldiers are responsible for the grain and grass escort after the 200,000 army. ”

Speaking of this, Li Muzhi paused and continued, "Because there is Yizhou as a barrier to the Lingnan Yi people, we have very few garrisons in Jinzhou, and the defense of Jinzhou is all managed by the state army itself, and the number is not large, only 30,000 horses, so if our reinforcements can't reach Jinzhou City before the Lingnan Yi vanguard army arrives at Jinzhou City, I'm afraid that Jinzhou City will fall in a few days." ”

"Jinju is the gateway to King's Landing, once Jinzhou falls, the soldiers of the Lingnan Yi clan will approach King's Landing City, which is a great threat to us." Pei Wenju said worriedly, "Therefore, Jinju can't be lost!" You must keep Jinju City! ”

"Yes!" Ye Qingzhi also agreed with Pei Wenju's suggestion, "The Lingnan Yi clan did nothing evil if they didn't capture a city, Jinzhou City is the largest city in Jinzhou, and there are six million people in the city, if the Lingnan Yi clan breaks through Jinju City, I don't know what kind of viciousness Lu Dao will make, so Jinzhou City must not be lost!" ”

Pei Wenju and Ye Qingzhi are Wenchen after all, and the question of martial affairs depends on the meaning of Bai Jin, Li Muzhi and Ji Qingchen, so after the two finished talking about their suggestions, Ji Wen did not express his position, but moved his gaze to Bai Jin and asked, "What does the Marquis of Jin mean?" ”

"Jinju is of great significance to Dayan, and only by holding Jinju City can we ensure that Jinju is not lost, and we really shouldn't give up Jinju City." Bai Jin said.

Bai Jin made an analysis from a strategic point of view.

Because Jinzhou is adjacent to King's Landing, it is not only a barrier to King's Landing, but also Jinzhou is rich, if the Lingnan Yi people break through Jinzhou City, they will not only face the crisis of the Lingnan Yi army approaching King's Landing, but also let the Lingnan Yi people get more supplies because of burning, killing and looting, so that they have plenty of food and grass.

This will be conducive to the long-term battle of the Lingnan Yi clan against Dayan, and not conducive to Dayan's phalanx of quick battles!

"The old minister thinks so too!" Li Muzhi also bowed down and said.

Seeing Li Muzhi's statement, Ji Qingchen did not speak among the five people in the imperial study, and he was the commander of Dayan's southward march to Jinzhou to block the Lingnan Yi clan this time, and he had a very important say in Jinzhou.

Therefore, everyone turned their attention to Ji Qingchen.

"Since everyone says so, let's defend Jinju City!" Ji Qingchen said lightly, "The Privy Council can order that the armies of Fangzhou, Qingzhou, Hangzhou, and Weizhou immediately set off to gather in Jinzhou City and issue an order to defend Jinzhou City!" As long as they can hold Jinju City for a month, this king will have a good strategy to break the enemy, and he will definitely be able to relieve the siege of Jinju when the time comes. ”

Seeing that Ji Qingchen said so surely, Ji Wen, who had always trusted Ji Qingchen very much, couldn't help but ask, "Ninth brother, what is your good strategy?" ”

"Lead the king into the urn and annihilate the 300,000 troops in Lingnan!" Ji Qingchen said word by word.

As soon as he finished speaking, the study fell into a brief silence.

Everyone was not shocked by his arrogance and self-confidence, but shocked by his ruthless methods, he wanted to use Jinzhou City as a bait to lure the Lingnan Yi army under Jinzhou City, and then annihilate it in one fell swoop!

In order to annihilate the 300,000 Lingnan Yi army, the 6 million people and more than 100,000 defenders in Jinju City were used as bait, which is indeed not something that ordinary people can do!

"Ninth brother-this-" Ji Wen didn't know what to say after understanding what Ji Qingchen meant, and Pei Wenju and Ye Qingzhi were also pale, looking at Ji Qingchen with a little anger, they wanted to reprimand Ji Qingchen for his ruthless methods, but seeing that Ji Wen didn't object, they couldn't help it. Only Bai Jin and Li Muzhi were relatively calm, they knew very well that if they wanted to annihilate the 300,000 army of the Lingnan Yi clan, they had to use extraordinary means.

If it had been at any time in the past, Ji Qingchen should not have used such a ruthless method, but now the situation is different, there are 400,000 powerful iron cavalry in the north who have left the country to invade Ningzhou, which is threatening King's Landing City, if the war in the south drags on again and again, Da Yanzheng's danger will be great.

It is necessary to solve the Lingnan Yi tribe in the south at a heavy price, so as to go north to Ningzhou in time, drive the Liguo Railway Cavalry out of Ningzhou, and solve the crisis faced by Dayan.

Seeing Ji Qingchen hesitating, Ji Qingchen, who had a solemn face, said, "Brother Huang, as long as they can hold Jinzhou City for a month without being broken by the Lingnan Yi army, the subordinate brother will have the ability to completely annihilate the 300,000 Lingnan army, otherwise if we defend Jinzhou City and fight an offensive and defensive battle with the 300,000 Lingnan army, I don't know how many years it will take for the Lingnan Yi to annihilate them, the Lingnan Yi clan has time to spend with us, but we still have 400,000 iron horsemen in Ningzhou, we can't afford it!" ”

"Are you really sure that you will completely annihilate the 300,000 Lingnan army?" Ji Wen confirmed to Ji Qingchen again. If he really used Jinju City as a bait to annihilate the 300,000 troops in Lingnan and solve the crisis in the south of Dayan, why should he have such a notoriety on his back?

"Yes!" Ji Qingchen said affirmatively, he didn't say anything, only the word "have" expressed his confidence.

"What do the Marquis of Jin and the privy envoy think?" Ji Wen moved his gaze to Bai Jin and Li Muzhi again.

"If His Highness can really annihilate the 300,000 Lingnan army in a short period of time, the old man thinks he can try!" Bai Jin said, but he moved his gaze to Ji Qingchen and asked, "I wonder if His Highness Lu Dao can give an exact time, and how long will it take to completely annihilate the 300,000 troops in Lingnan?" ”

"Half a year!" Ji Qingchen replied.

"If you fight a tough battle with the Lingnan Yi clan and want to drive them out of Dayan, I'm afraid it will take three or five years or more, but now it only takes half a year to completely annihilate the 300,000 troops in Lingnan, and the old minister also thinks that he can give it a try!" Li Muzhi also nodded and said.

"Since everyone thinks so, let's do it!" Ji Wen said that when it comes to the decision-making of major military affairs, he should listen more to the opinions of the military generals. Seeing that Pei Wenju and Ye Qingzhi seemed to have something to say, Ji Wen continued to speak, "As for how to cooperate with the Ninth Brother to completely annihilate the 300,000 army of the Lingnan Yi clan this time, it will be handed over to the Privy Council and the Political Affairs Hall." ”

"No!" Ji Wen opened his mouth to confirm this matter, and blocked Pei Wenju and Ye Qingzhi's words, and the two of them could only hold back what they wanted to say and bow down to receive the order.
