Chapter 231: Yuwen Starry Sky

For the emperor, the country is the most important, but if you want to keep the world controlled by the power in your hands, only military power is the most indispensable.

Putting the military power in the hands of others for a long time, the emperor is afraid that he will feel uncomfortable, not to mention how sensitive Xing Tianze's identity is in the Xingzhao Kingdom, of course the emperor cannot trust him completely, and the emperor himself is a suspicious person by nature.

This is just one of the hidden dangers, and the other is the difference in identity and role between the two armies.

The army of the Qingcang Kingdom is only an invader in the Xingzhao Kingdom, and if it is not possible to expel them from their own land for a long time.

It will make the soldiers think that the enemy is very strong, and at the same time, they will suspect that Xing Tianze does not have the ability to command the army, and cannot lead them to the final victory, and over time, it is very likely to cause the possibility of a mutiny in the army.

In addition, the daily consumption of grain and grass by 300,000 troops is also an astronomical amount, and at present, the treasury of the State of Xingzhao cannot allow them to fight for a long time, and if they continue to stalemate, they will not even be able to guarantee food and grass.

When the time comes, we will have to increase taxes from the people to fill the needs of the front.

Secondly, Huang Xuancheng was conquered, and there were also advantages and disadvantages.

Recovering a lost territory is a great blessing for Xing Zhaoguo, and the soldiers will also have a high temperament.

However, if you want to defend two cities, it also means that the forces that originally guarded one city have been separated, and the condensed combat effectiveness has been weakened.

It is impossible for Xing Tianze and Wuxian to guard separately, and even if they send a credible general out, they are not Nangong Yuan or Murong Yu's opponents.

If Huang Xuancheng gains and loses, it will deal a big blow to the morale of the three armies.

If the Qingcang soldiers divided into two routes and surrounded Huang Xuancheng to Black Dragon City without attacking it, there would always be a city where the grain and grass would be exhausted.

Tao Mingxi took a sip of the vegetable porridge in the bowl and listened carefully to the reasons analyzed by Xing Tianze.

"Lord Wang, I don't think the soldiers on the battlefield are tired of deceit, you should still follow my words and carry out a beheading operation." Tao Mingxi immediately put forward his own opinion.

"That's what you're talking about sending the dead to assassinate? Didn't this king tell you, Nangong Yuan's side is heavily guarded, and it is difficult to start. Xing Tianze sighed slightly.

"In addition to Nangong Yuan, there are no ministers in the Qingcang Kingdom who can control the government?" Tao Mingxi asked with a slight frown.

A light suddenly erupted in Wuxi's eyes, obviously awakened by Tao Mingxi's words.

"The princess's words are really meritorious." Leave no trace to put down the chopsticks in your hand.

If there is one person in the Qingcang Kingdom who can influence Nangong Yuan, that is his left prime minister, Yuwen Xingkong.

When Nangong Yuan was still an unfavored prince, it was Yuwen Xingkong who chose him, and vigorously supported him behind his back and helped him sweep away many hidden dangers in the court.

Therefore, after Nangong Yuan ascended the throne and became emperor, the power in the hands of Yuwen Xingkong became even greater.

Just a few years ago, after Yuwen Xingkong put forward an opinion on any major matter in the Qing Cangguo, Nangong Yuan also had to make concessions.

It's just that five years ago, Murong Yu relied on dazzling feats, and after the official entry into the house in Qingcang Kingdom,

Combined with his strength, Murong Yu was able to suppress Yuwen Starry Sky and become a real dominant.

If it can cause discord between their monarchs and ministers, Nangong Yuan will definitely be afraid of the power of Yuwen Xingkong in the Qingcang Kingdom, and the class master will return to stabilize the dynasty.

"Yuwen Xingkong is also a smart person, even if we create public opinion, will he be directly fooled?" Xing Tianze glanced at Traceless, which he had thought of a long time ago, but he had never been sure, and he didn't have any plans in his heart.

"Lord Wang, you can send someone to spread rumors in the Qingcang Kingdom, the content is that Nangong Yuan is conquest of the Zhao Kingdom, if you return victorious, you will definitely sacrifice the life of Yuwen Starry Sky to worship the ancestors and ancestors." There was a hint of thought in the eyes of the traceless.

Xing Tianze frowned slightly and looked down at the chicken soup in the bowl.

"Lord Wang, whether it is successful or not, I think you should listen to the words of Traceless and give it a try." Tao Mingxi also spoke on the side.

"Lord Wang, don't worry, I'm sure that as long as this rumor comes out, Yuwen Starry Sky will definitely not be able to sit still." Traceless took a small sip of chicken soup.

Because Yuwen Starry Sky did not dare to take risks, Nangong Yuan was a great threat to him, and if he really returned victorious, the power in his hands would definitely suffer a great impact.

On the contrary, Nangong Yuan's prestige in the Qingcang Kingdom will also swell to a peak.

Under the repeated suggestions of Tao Mingxi and Wuji, Xing Tianze finally made up his mind, and at the same time ordered the three armies to stand by to resist Nangong Yuan's anger and launch another fierce attack......

Half a month passed quickly, during which the two armies were at peace without any further fighting, not even a slight friction.

Traceless's worries finally came true, and the emperor of Xing Zhaoguo was dissatisfied with Xing Tianze's immobility for a long time, and issued two orders in a row thousands of miles away, asking him to quickly send troops to drive the enemy out of the country......

Nangong Yuan, who was sitting in the handsome hall, looked down at the letter that Yuwen Xingkong had sent someone to loosen, and his whole face was extremely gloomy.

None of the many generals present dared to speak out, for them, the prestige of Yuwen Starry Sky was too high, and as a veteran of the two dynasties, he even surpassed Nangong Yuan in many places.

In fact, there are two positions of prime ministers on the left and right in the Qingcang Kingdom, but as early as more than ten years ago, after Yuwen Xingkong supported Nangong Yuan to become the emperor, he completely defeated the right prime minister by forcible means.

Not only did he remove the right prime minister from all his positions, but he was also sent to the army for 1,000 miles after a major hundred boards, and he was not allowed to return to Beijing during his lifetime, but he also demoted everyone within his nine clans to the slave level and was never allowed to be hired by the imperial court.

Since then, the position of the left prime minister of Qingcang Kingdom has been vacant, and no one wants to hold it anymore, because everyone knows that once he sits in this position, it is equivalent to angering Yuwen Xingkong.

Half an hour later, Nangong Yuan let out a long sigh, waved his hand a little dejectedly, and let all the generals except Murong Yu retreat first.

"Murong, do you know what kind of rebellion the old thief Yuwen is? He dared to reprimand me in a letter for not knowing the current situation and rashly sending troops, and also demanded that I withdraw my troops and return to the court within ten days. Nangong Yuan slapped heavily on the table, his chest kept rising and falling, which showed how strong the anger in his heart was at the moment.

"Your Majesty, Yuwen Cheng is in a high position, and no one in the court can compete with him except for you and me, so Weichen thinks that it is better to withdraw his troops, if he blocks the supply of food and grass for our army, we will not be able to continue the war in Xingzhao Kingdom." Murong Yu's face was also extremely unsightly.

In the past few days, he and Nangong Yuan have already formulated a detailed battle plan, which was originally selected to be officially implemented after five days, but he didn't expect Yuwen Starry Sky to suddenly attack at such a time.
