"Oh?"

Ji Chang's eyes flashed slightly, but his expression was extremely calm and asked: "Di Xin sent 100,000 troops this time, with many generals and a huge momentum, and you have never been on the battlefield, so why do you think that Xiqi should be the main battle?" ”

"Although the child has never brought soldiers, but also knows that the soldier is valuable in the courage, not in the number of people, Chaoge is thousands of miles away from Xiqi, even if Di Xin leads the army to come, it will inevitably go through a long trek, unbearable labor, and the subsequent supply of grain and grass will also become very difficult, on the other hand, I Xiqi can fight nearby, as long as my father and the hundred officials are of the same heart, it will definitely win the victory"

Ji Fa hasn't watched too many historical dramas, although he feels that the reasons are a little unreliable, but he feels that it is quite commendable to be able to say this.

It's just that this sentence was still quite powerful when it was said thousands of years ago, and everyone in the hall was extremely surprised, but they didn't expect the second prince to say something like that.

I heard the old man Ji Chang finally twist his beard and smiled slightly: "Haha, it's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he said this big thing before he has never participated in the war. However, there is some truth in the march that is said, and the army of Chaoge must be tired when it comes from afar. ”

After the hundred officials had just digested these words, Ji Chang's face turned grim, and he said loudly to the hundred officials: "But no matter what, since Chaoge has sent troops, even if I Xiqi takes the initiative to admit defeat, it is not necessarily that Di Xin will stop here, so this battle will not be avoided sooner or later, so no matter what, you need to prepare for war, and the ministers do not need to discuss this matter again, and listen to the arrangement."

After speaking, he shouted again: "General Nangong Shi is not here?" ”

"In!" , Nangong Shi came out in time to answer loudly.

"Order you to beat the drums and gather the crowd, gather the soldiers, and immediately conduct a drill tomorrow to deal with the Chaoge army"

"Yes"

"Ji Fa, Ji Zheng, Mane Bear, Boda, Zhongtu ......", Ji Chang ordered dozens of young generals, including Ji Fa, in one breath, "You and others join General Nangong's team together, practice with the troops, and the audience General Nangong arranges"

After Ji Chang made this arrangement, he added: "You must work hard, and those who perform well in the drill can be promoted by General Nangong as a pioneer, and they may have the opportunity to go out with the team in the future, if they retreat to the Chaoge army, they can be on their own!" ”

This sweetness is quite big, except for Ji Fa, the young generals are all red with excitement, and they all swear to thank Ji Chang.

Ji Fa only sighed secretly in his heart, this desire to lead the team to wander outside alone seemed to be in vain, so he had to bow down with everyone and responded: "Yes!" ”

……

Just when Ji Changming was still fishing, drinking tea, playing, listening to the wind and admiring the moon, and doing some things to show weakness to Chaoge, but secretly arranging the drill team to deal with the upcoming Chaoge army, unexpectedly, there was a big movement from Chaoge's side, and Di Xin, who led an army of 100,000, also made a move that was the same as Ji Chang's.

The news that has been circulating to the outside world is that Di Xin is furious because of Xiqi's alliance with Yousu, so he is ready to send troops to attack Xiqi, which has been practiced for several months.

But just when Xiqi was just beginning to prepare for the battle, Di Xin suddenly sent troops, but the target was not Xiqi, which was thousands of miles away, but the army crossed the mountains south of Chaoge, and then raided Yousu with lightning speed.

Before Su Bohou Su Hu arrived in various countries, including Zhou, when the messenger sent by Su for help arrived in various countries, including Zhou, Yousu fell.

With a lightning-fast momentum and extremely brave offensive methods, Emperor Xin defeated Yousu in less than half a month, robbed countless cattle, sheep and horses, and made most of the residents of Yousu City become slaves of Chaoge.

Although Su has formed an alliance with Xiqi, Su Bohou has always been respectful to the court, and pays tribute to various cattle and sheep on time every year.

The officials and nobles of Chaoge were shocked by this, and then naturally began to speculate that Di Xin might take advantage of the situation and lead the army to the west, but unexpectedly, Di Xin's unexpected class teacher quickly returned to Chaoge and did not take a further step east.

Now that Di Xin has returned to the court, the hundred officials of the court song will naturally think that this war is likely to be made by Di Xin to make an example to the princes of the unstable Zhou Fang, and warn them not to act rashly, but the important ministers of the court such as Bigan, Jizi, and Shang Rong do not think so.

Taishifu

Bigan got together with Jizi and Shang Rong again, and everyone had a sad face.

Shang Rong took the lead and said worriedly: "The king listened to our suggestion to send troops as soon as possible, but not only did not send troops to the west, but instead unexpectedly attacked Yousu, and after success, he did not advance eastward, but returned to the dynasty, although this battle brought a lot of benefits, but the disadvantages are even greater."

Ji Zi put together his hair as usual and nodded in agreement: "Yes, even if there is Su anti-heart, then Su Bohou can be regarded as a general who can fight habitually, but there are few Su troops, and there are few soldiers, which is not enough to worry, but this move has chilled the hearts of the princes, and now I am only afraid of which princes who were originally loyal to the Great Shang, not only are they not afraid, but they also feel that they can't trust our Chaoge, judging from the reply to celebrate the enthronement of the Son of Heaven, the princes who came to Chaoge are obviously a quarter less."

Bigan still had a trace of the elegant charm of his youth on his face, but at this moment he showed a trace of coldness, and said a little gloomily: "More than that, according to me, the king has not handed over his military power so far, and he has not disbanded the warriors of the three clans who have gathered, but I am afraid that he has other ideas."

Shang Rong was taken aback when he heard this, and asked him urgently: "How can the prime minister say this?" On the side, Miko also looked at Bigan in surprise and waited for the following.

"I suspect that the king's use of troops this time is not to attack Xiqi or sweep away those external princes who are threatening, but the real purpose is to clean up what he thinks is the internal worries of the court," Bi Gan said coldly, "I feel more and more that the purpose of the king's move is to clean up the private soldiers around us princes and nobles, and it is deliberately arranged!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Shang Rong and Jizi's faces changed greatly, and they were speechless for a long time.

Bigan said coldly: "As for the looted slaves and those belongings, they are just an accessory, but ......", Bigan changed his words, and then frowned and said to Shang Rong:

"If it is contrary to what you have said, it may be because of another possibility"

"That is, maybe the king didn't have any other thoughts about sending troops this time, but just for the woman who had Su."

"Who?" , Shang Rong didn't react for a while, and subconsciously asked.

"Daji?!" , Miko preemptively said with a strange face on the side.

Bigan didn't speak, just nodded slowly, but Shang Rong was stunned for a moment.
