praised Li Xian, and the Emperor of the Holy Book talked about the matter of Dongluo.

Previously, the Japanese soldiers approached the Dasheng sea area, but Dongluo concealed and did not report it, which made the Dasheng court very angry, so he sent an envoy to inquire about the matter, but Dongluo did not give an exact statement.

However, the envoy brought back other news, the old king of Dongluo died of illness, and the new king of Dongluo was able to succeed to the throne after a bloody infighting in Dongluo, but the turmoil caused by this infighting has not stopped to this day.

According to the reply of the dark line official installed by Dasheng in Dongluo, the new king of Dongluo has been secretly in close contact with the Japanese state, and his people can succeed to the throne smoothly, and it is suspected that there are also Japanese forces secretly intervening to help.

At this point, the secret knot between Dongluo and Wa Guozhu has become a fact in front of Dasheng's eyes.

"It seems that the new king of Dongluo has already colluded with the Wa Kingdom...... No wonder I didn't report what I knew!"

"More than 10 years ago, Dongluo almost destroyed the country at the hands of neighboring Baekje! It was my Royal Highness the Crown Prince who led the troops to help relieve the worries of Dongluo's annihilation! At that time, Baekje, who was embarrassed by the Japanese people, asked for help from the Japanese state, and the Japanese army led 80,000 sailors to approach the territory of our dynasty, and it was His Royal Highness the former prince who defeated the Japanese army at the mouth of the Baijiang River with less and more! This battle not only saved Dongluo, but also helped Dongluo to lose his shame for many years and annexed Baekje in one fell swoop. Since then, Baekje has fallen to the country, and Dongluo finally does not have to suffer from oppression!"

Since then, Dongluo has been the suzerainty of Daesheng and has paid tribute every year, and the two countries have been friendly with each other.

"I have a lot of kindness to Dongluo in the court, and this time Dongluo actually colluded with the Japanese country and wanted to be unfavorable to our dynasty, which is really ungrateful!"

In this regard, all officials spurned.

But no matter how much you spurn it, there are no eternal friends and enemies in this world, only the interests are the longest.

The change of monarch has always been the most prone to changes in the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but it is also due to the weakening of the civil strife in Dasheng......

Emperor Sacred Rite looked at the officials, "What worries me most at the moment is that the new king of Dongluo is not only trying to take the throne of Dongluo, but also has the ambition to conspire with the Wa Kingdom to commit against my Dasheng—"

Scolding won't solve the problem, and that's the key to dealing with it now.

After the destruction of Baekje and Goguryeo, Dongluo replaced Goryeo as the only neighbor bordering the northeastern border of Daesheng.

At that time, the Japanese army forced into the southeast hinterland of Dasheng with a knife, and Dongluo bit the throat of the northeast of Dasheng...... Invaded by foreign enemies on both sides, the consequences are unimaginable.

Thinking of the consequences, the hundred officials were all shocked when they talked in private conversations.

"Your Majesty, while the civil strife in Dongluo has not been eliminated, we must also send an order to the Anton Protectorate as soon as possible, so that they can strengthen the border defense to prepare for the defense of Dongluo!"

There is no need for the courtiers to remind them of this, the Holy Book Emperor has already sent an order one step earlier.

If Dongluo makes a move, and further north, the Black Water Turtle tribe may not be able to keep to itself...... At that time, the chaos of different races will be connected, and Dasheng may face the danger of shattering mountains and rivers.

Thinking of this, the Holy Book Emperor was in a heavy mood, and he did not dare to relax in the slightest.

Listening to the emperor and the hundred officials pressing the focus of resisting Dongluo on the eastern defense line of the Andong Protectorate, Chu Taifu pondered for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he only heard a young voice speak one step ahead of him-

Wei Shuyi, who was wearing a vermilion official robe, stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if Dongluo raises troops, there may not be only one possibility of land attack."

The Holy Emperor motioned for him to continue.

"As a vassal state that has been attached to Dasheng for many years, Dongluo knows that his national strength is invincible, so he may not dare to fight against the important border towns of Andong alone...... "Wei Shuyi Zhengse said: "The minister is afraid that Dongluo will go south into the sea and join forces with the Japanese army to attack the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River."

"Wei Shilang's concern is not unreasonable." After pondering for a while, Ma Xingzhou also said, "Although my territory in the northeast is wide, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and it is a bitter cold land. In contrast, Jiangnan is rich, and he has just suffered from Xu Zhengye's rebellion, and he is at a weak time in the eyes of the Japanese state, so how do you know that Dongluo will not be moved?"

It is an eternal truth that the rich and the weak are the easiest to attract the coveted by the jackals.

When one of the courtiers heard this, he was worried: "If this is the case...... At that time, in the face of the joint attack of the Wa Kingdom and Dongluo, what will happen to the Zhongyong Marquis and the Chang Assassin History

Resist?"

Wei Shuyi raised his hand: "Your Majesty please send additional troops to Chang Assassin Shi to strengthen the coastal defense, to resist the Japanese soldiers, and to deter Dongluo!"

This remark immediately attracted opposition.

"More troops? Wei Shilang can know how many places are used now, and the consumption of raising troops is so great that it is no longer possible for the household department to turn around!"

"That Chang Assassin Shi now has 80,000 troops in her hands, not to mention that the coastal states' defense divisions can also be mobilized by her, how many more soldiers does she need? Back then, His Royal Highness the First Crown Prince defeated 80,000 Japanese army sailors, and the Communist Party only used less than 40,000 troops!"

Uncle Wei frowned slightly: "But back then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led the Xuance Army, and the elite level was far from comparable to these 80,000 soldiers, and the current situation is even more difficult and dangerous than back then, how can it be generalized."

An official sneered and said, "If you want me to say, the most ungeneralizable thing should be the leader of the army!" I think that back then, the prince of my Dasheng Dynasty was famous, and before he fought, it was enough to make the Japanese army frightened!"

"Now it's led by a seventeen-year-old girl, and I don't know that I'm going to be Dasheng and no one is available. Under such circumstances, it is only natural for the Japanese army and Dong Luo to think that my Dasheng Jiangnan Naval Division is weak and can be bullied, so they attack it together!"

These words made those officials who had long been dissatisfied with Chang Suining echo them, and soon, someone proposed Yi Shuai, as for the candidate to replace him, in their mouths, it seemed that as long as it was a man, the name would be spread, and it would sound more intimidating than a weak female baby.

「…… The battlefield is no better than other places, and making a woman handsome is a move to increase the prestige of others and destroy one's own morale, and I hope that Your Majesty will choose a new commander!"

"Your Majesty, please re-select the commander!"

In the voice of Yi Shuai, Ma Xingzhou also fell into thought for a while, and when Uncle Wei was difficult to support alone, Mrs. Chu came out of the queue without hurrying.

He looked at the official with the loudest voice and asked in a deliberative tone, "'Making a woman handsome is a move to increase the prestige of others and destroy one's own morale, I don't know how Lord Qiu got this statement?'"

"Taifu, this is obvious......" The official didn't want to choke with Taifu Chu, and his tone was much smoother: "Women are handsome, but they always lack deterrence."

Mrs. Chu laughed: "I'm afraid the deterrent power in your mouth is not your imagination."

The official choked, and was about to speak, but saw that Mrs. Chu had put away his peaceful expression, and his eyebrows and eyes gradually became solemn: "As far as the old man knows, the Japanese army has been wandering repeatedly on the sea for nearly two months before they dare to send troops to test, if it is really as Lord Qiu said, they think that our anti-Japanese marshal is weak and can be bullied, why did they dare to stretch out their minions for a long time?"

"The reason why the Japanese army has been waiting for a long time is precisely because Chang Assassin Shi is a general who was born out of nowhere, and being born out of thin air means the unknown, and the unknown is unpredictable! Therefore, the Japanese army did not dare to act rashly, but instead ordered the spies to test again and again!"

"The old man doesn't think that changing to a male military general with more qualifications and combat exploits than the money bags of beggars on the street will make the Japanese army wait and see until now!"

"What is deterrence? Let the Japanese army wait and see for a long time, and buy the maximum time for the cleanup of coastal defense drills, this is her deterrent!"

"What do you mean by 'destroying your own morale? Chang Assassin Shi now leads 80,000 soldiers, everyone was willing to stay and follow Chang Assassin Shi to fight against the Japanese together, and in the end they could only catch lots, this matter has become a beautiful talk in the army! Let me ask, for such a convincing soldier, what is the basis for Lord Qiu to say that she destroyed her own morale?"

In the face of this aggressive question, the official surnamed Qiu was already pale and speechless.

At the end, Mrs. Chu looked around, and said in a tone that was very complete with a complete attack of disgust: "Being an official in the court, discussing important matters, and just relying on wishful thinking, he dares to propose Yi Shuai's major affairs, which is an unworthy move for virtue, ashamed of the world, ashamed of the people, stupid and evil!"

If Fang Cai only scolded the surname Qiu, now he is scolding all the people who proposed Yi Shuai.

A protégé whispered, "Taifu is angry......

"What's the anger, the old man will be angry when he listens to these selfish stupid words!" Mrs. Chu was furious, and said, "The situation dictates that the situation is so, why not send more troops? What is when

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only led less than 40,000 troops, how can the events of that year be compared? Ladies and gentlemen, there were still many people who wore open crotch pants back then, why do you wear official uniforms now?"

"Besides, you also know that His Royal Highness the First Crown Prince led the Xuance Army back then, if you can transfer the 20,000 sailors in the Xuance Army to Jiangnan and hand them over to Chang Thorn Shi, it would be okay to withdraw the 80,000 troops!"

Hearing this, the official surnamed Qiu, who was scolded so much, finally seized the opportunity to relieve his anger, and immediately faced the Holy Book Emperor, bowed his head and asked, "Your Majesty, what Taifu Chu said is very true, it is better to transfer the 20,000 Xuance Sailors to Jiangnan and exchange them for the 80,000 army to control other places!"

No matter how elite the 20,000 sailors are, they can't beat the Japanese army and Dongluo! He has endured this old lady for too long, and the other party is really still old and confused, and this kind of thing is said!

Since the other party dares to speak, he dares to follow, and then he loses the battle, and some are good to watch!

Lord Qiu, who bowed his head and asked for instructions, did not see the coldness that flashed in the emperor's eyes.

But he heard the emperor's cold scolding: "Ridiculous, military affairs, how can you wait for a pastime that can be used for vindictiveness!"

The official surnamed Qiu had a cold back and immediately knelt down.

Emperor Saint's tone was solemn: "Although there are 20,000 sailors in the Xuance army, they are not only through water warfare, they are now also shouldering the heavy responsibility of garrisoning the capital division, if I am easily transferred, where will I put the safety of Kyoto?"

Immediately, she said in a tone that took into account the overall situation: "What Taifu and Wei Shilang said is good, this time is different from the past, I will try to transfer troops, and then try my best to allocate 20,000 troops for Jiangnan to control the Japanese army and Dongluo——"

But it won't be the Xuan Ce Army.

Mrs. Chu knew it in her heart.

He seemed to be unscrupulous, but in fact, he deliberately handed the words to the surnamed Qiu, and used the mouth of the great injustice to test the emperor's attitude...... Sure enough, it's still on guard.

Wei Shuyi was vaguely aware of this, and there were waves in his heart.

It seems that although the saint trusts "her", is this trust only the ability to trust "her"?

The reluctance to return the Xuan Ce army to the former generals was a manifestation of the reservedness of the emperor's trust.

Without the Xuan Ce army, with a not very good hand, while resisting the Japanese army, he also had to face the threat of Dongluo...... Can she win?

The emperor has the answer in his heart - even if there is no Xuan Ce army, Ah Shang can win.

She believed that since Ah Shang took the initiative to ask for his life to stay in Jiangdu, he would be able to do it.

If Ashang feels invincible, if Ashang feels that he needs the help of the Xuan Ce army...... Then, Ah Shang will ask her mother for help, as long as Ah Shang speaks, she can rest assured that the 20,000 Xuan Ce Shui Master will be sent to Ah Shang.

As long as Ashang speaks, as long as Ashanken returns to her, she will certainly not be a stingy mother.

She is only waiting for Ah Shang to speak, as long as Ah Shang recognizes her as a mother and is willing to agree with her to the outside world, she will not be unacceptable - don't say that Xuan Ce Shui Shi, even if it is these thousands of miles, she is only willing to share it with Ah Shang.

After the early dynasty dispersed, the Holy Book Emperor returned to the Manna Palace, and after swallowing a vermilion pill under the service of the inner servant, he asked Yu Zeng if there was any news from the national teacher.

Yu Zeng lowered his head and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the national teacher has not yet sent back the news."

The Holy Emperor said inexplicably, "It seems that this evil star is indeed difficult to find, so wait a little longer...... Presumably, the national teacher will not let me down."

Yu Zeng's heart was slightly cold, and he responded, "Yes, the slave will definitely let people protect the Heavenly Mirror National Teacher."

……

After the six subordinates were on duty, Hubu Zhan Shilang was invited and went to the teahouse to drink tea with Mrs. Chu.

On the way here, Zhan Shilang was very apprehensive, he repeatedly asked the teacher to come out for tea and talk, the teacher always refused with annoyance, and the reason for each refusal was very natural to decorate, sometimes two words, sometimes three words - either [not available], or [annoying, not going].

This time, the teacher actually took the initiative to ask him, which is really rare, and it is completely possible to brag about it.

But Zhan Shilang is worried that there must be a demon when things go wrong, shouldn't the teacher be ...... I didn't scold him in the early days, and I want to be angry with him, right?

Although I don't respect the teacher like this, it does seem like a teacher would do something.

Before Zhan Shilang got out of the sedan chair, he took off his official hat, and if the teacher saw the top of his balding head, he might not be able to bear to scold him.

He is not miserable, he is really miserable, after all, the head of the six bald heads today belongs to their household department.

Everywhere they were reaching out for silver, but there were only a few people in the treasury, and most of them were copied from the homes of those scholars...... There are too many places to ask for money, and how to divide it is a problem.

Although Dasheng implements the two-tax law, the field tax is divided into summer tax and autumn grain, and the autumn harvest will soon begin, and the autumn grain should have a large amount of income, but this year, the Central Plains and other major grain states have suffered floods, and there is no harvest......

However, the war will continue to be fought more and more, and if it continues like this, once the finances are fundamentally broken and collapsed......

Every time he thought of this possibility, Zhan Shilang only felt that his scalp was numb, and he was about to lose his hair again.

Fortunately, what was waiting for him in the teahouse was not the teacher's scolding-

Mrs. Chu had something to inquire about, and asked about the military salary and materials that would be allocated to Chang Suining next.

He knew that the household department was short of money, so he came to urge, he couldn't care about anything else, but his students' resistance to the Japanese was the top priority, and his unlucky student was already very aggrieved, and he couldn't stop calling her soldiers without food.

"The teacher is actually going to ask this ......" Zhan Shilang was very surprised, and immediately said, "Coincidentally, this matter has just been reminded and urged by the students today, and it has been put on the agenda."

"Oh?" Mrs. Chu raised her white eyebrows: "Who is it?"
