Chapter 195: Coastal Crisis
The emperor used to think that the two sides would let the two emperors of ice and snow leak out of each other, so that the enemy would not dare to offend, but now it is okay to do this.
It's just too risky, this is equivalent to leaving the Sun and Moon garrison outside the Mingdou Mountain Range to fend for itself, and it takes time to mobilize the army to support, if there is no strong person who can sit still, it is likely to be defeated by Dai Hao in one fell swoop.
They had already been defeated once, retreating from the Mingdou Mountains to Maple Leaf City, the gateway fortress of the Sun and Moon Empire.
There are many plains in the Sun and Moon Empire, especially after Maple Leaf City, thousands of miles of grassland, a horse and a flat river, once Maple City is breached, Xingluo's army enters the territory of Sun and Moon, and it is very difficult to destroy and fight back.
That is, now that there is the Snow Emperor in the emperor, he dares to make such a wave, even if Maple Leaf City is lost, the absolute strength of the Snow Emperor can minimize the loss.
Xu Lanqing arched his hand and said: "Father, if there is nothing to do, the ministers will retire first." ”
"There's really one thing."
The emperor looked into Xu Lanqing's eyes and said, "You can listen to it first, and then decide whether to agree or not." ”
Xu Lanqing blinked his eyes and made a listening gesture: "You say." ”
The emperor took out a scroll from under the imperial case, swept away the miscellaneous items on the imperial case with his right hand, and unfolded the scroll in front of Xu Lanqing's eyes.
This is a map of the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire, and Xu Lanqing noticed that there are three circles with red lines on it, two of which are the Mingdou Mountains and the Tiandou Mountains, and the other is the northern coastal area.
Xu Lanqing's heart sank, he already knew that there was a rebellion over there a few days ago, and he also captured Donghai City, and the momentum was huge.
However, the emperor also sent the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Legion and the Evil King Soul Master Legion to suppress the rebels, and almost four days have passed.
But what does the emperor mean now?
"Is this what happened?" Xu Lanqing looked at the emperor puzzled.
The emperor nodded, and shook his head again: "Xu Pingzhong is dead, and the rabble gathered by him have also been scattered.
Big problems can be solved, but small problems are continuous. ”
The calloused Emperor pointed to the edge of the sea, where the largest city was Donghai City.
He sighed and continued: "Donghai City is built by the sea, and the most prosperous thing is the sea trade, and it is also the gathering place with the most sea soul masters in the empire.
But after Xu Pingzhong came out like this, he and his subordinates Huo Huo were swept away, and all kinds of waste were in ruins, and the scattered soldiers became rogues, there were countless of them, and the terrain and mountains next to them were mostly intricate, and they hid inside, and it was very time-consuming to want to exterminate them, and it was impossible for the two soul master legions to be stationed there all the time.
Xu Pingzhong, that bastard, is really fucking causing trouble for Lao Tzu! ”
The emperor couldn't help but burst into foul language as he spoke, and slapped it vigorously on the imperial case, and the map was shocked twice.
Xu Lanqing did not say anything, and quietly listened to the emperor continue.
The emperor took a deep breath, took a smooth breath, pointed his finger at the coastal area, and said:
"The problem now is not only this, I don't know what kind of madness the sea soul beast in the sea has, suddenly attacking humans in large numbers, very aggressive, which has never happened before.
You know, the sea soul beasts are not only stronger than the soul beasts on land, but also more numerous, if they are determined to fight us to the end, Donghai City will definitely not be able to keep it.
There are still two Soul Master legions stationed there, which can repel their attacks, but what if the Soul Master Legion withdraws? And their truly powerful soul beasts haven't come out yet. ”
Xu Lanqing's eyebrows tightened, and the matter seemed to be very serious.
He asked, "Do you know what their purpose is?" ”
"I don't know."
The emperor's eyes were full of gloom: "The news that Ye Yulin sent back, that group of sea soul beasts is not like an ordinary beast tide with a brainless charge, but more like an army with sea soul beasts behind them to organize them." ”
"Is it a beast in the sea?" Xu Lanqing guessed.
"Didn't Ye Lao and Wang Lao think about forcing out the sea soul beast behind the scenes to talk to it and negotiate?"
The emperor said: "I have already tried, no matter how Ye Yulin and Wang Yiheng kill and injure those sea soul beasts, the other party will not come forward at all, and they will not dare to go deep into the sea, otherwise they will not be able to walk out." ”
Indeed, in the sea, it is someone else's territory, Ye Yulin and Wang Yiheng also have two soul master legions on land as backup, if they are fully arranged, even the Ice Emperor will not dare to peep, the other party should have seen the power of the soul master legion, otherwise they would not be so cautious.
Moreover, there are so many sea soul beasts, and the ones that Ye Yulin and they killed, the other party is probably not distressed, and maybe they can also consume some surplus sea soul beasts.
"So the father wants his son to go over there?" Xu Lanqing still doesn't know what the emperor thinks.
"That's right."
The emperor looked at Xu Lanqing and showed the old father's relieved smile: "Your crown princess is also a soul beast, maybe you can communicate with them, if you find out the reason, it will naturally be solved."
As the crown prince and the future emperor, you not only need to cultivate as a soul master, but also need to hone other aspects, and it just so happens that Donghai City can allow you to practice your hands.
As an emperor, he must not only make foreign countries dare not invade, but also let the people of the empire live and work in peace and contentment, and be prosperous and powerful. ”
"Erchen knows." Xu Lanqing looked respectful as he listened to the teachings.
The emperor had a point, and there was still a lot to learn.
There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure. Although Xu Lanqing doesn't think that the emperor can bring him luck, he still has so many years of experience and experience as an emperor, and it is always good to listen more, watch more, think more, and do more.
There was nothing to do later, and Xu Lanqing and the emperor carefully discussed some details about the expedition to the Heavenly Soul Empire.
The Emperor intends to send people to lead troops to support Maple Leaf City in case it really falls.
Xu Lanqing recommended Tangerine, she is now the deputy head of the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Legion, and she is also the commander of the 100,000-person group army.
The emperor is naturally skeptical, not to mention him, yesterday when Xu Lanqing insisted on letting Tangerine lead so many people, all the voices in the empire were opposed, so Luan Feng remained silent and neutral.
Even if Xu Lanqing had the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor by his side, he couldn't stop their gossip, saying that it was the prince's nepotism and letting a sixteen-year-old girl with nothing take such a heavy position, which was simply unbelievable and ridiculous.
But when the Snow Emperor stood up and said, "Whoever is against, who is in favor", everyone was silent.
In the end, all members passed.
Xu Lanqing remembered that Tangerine once told him that she would definitely kill the White Tiger Duke in this life to avenge her father, and now it was her first confrontation with the White Tiger Duke.
Xu Lanqing believed her.
In the Empire, there is no better commander than her, and those generals are at most brave and brave, but lack strategy.
The emperor couldn't resist Xu Lanqing, and when he saw that he insisted, he had to agree.
The emperor thought to himself, even if he couldn't defeat Dai Hao, 100,000 people, plus half of the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Army, and the original 100,000 people in Maple Leaf City, could he always hold it, right?
Do not seek merit, but seek no fault.
