"Are you sure?"

A look of surprise flashed on Ji Ziyue's cheeks.

She originally thought that Yang Dong would not give her any surprises. After all, according to the current situation, Da Zhou has no advantage at all when facing Houjin's iron horse.

In the past, it was still possible to rely on the courage of many soldiers and establish a defensive line in front of it.

But now that Yang Yan has his own troops, Da Zhou has never even had the opportunity to establish a defensive line.

Ji Ziyue knew about this matter, but she was helpless.

But she couldn't figure out where Yang Dong's "there is still room for maneuver" was.

Feeling Ji Ziyue's eyes, she gradually flashed with hope. While Yang Dong breathed a sigh of relief, he also took the initiative to take Ji Ziyue into his arms.

This time, Ji Ziyue did not refuse, but stared at Yang Dong directly and asked:

"Xiao Dongzi, tell me about your plan, don't coax me to understand?"

"Actually...... It's not that difficult. ”

Yang Dong groaned slightly, and could only think about it and make it up at the same time.

"Your Majesty, think about it, this is already the second wave of attacks after this year. The last time he occupied the Youzhou Horse Farm, Houjin mobilized more than 100,000 troops and consumed countless grains and grass. ”

"Your Majesty thinks that Houjin still has the ability to organize another large-scale war?"

Hearing this, a look of thought appeared on Ji Ziyue's beautiful cheeks.

Speaking of which, this is indeed the case.

Houjin was originally in the grassland area, and the grain and grass were not abundant enough. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to Youzhou to fight grass valley every autumn and winter.

But...... This matter cannot be so easily determined. After all, Houjin's invasion was really prepared.

If they didn't reserve some grain and grass in advance, Ji Ziyue wouldn't believe it.

After all, the lord of Houjin is not a simple person.

Thinking of this, Ji Ziyue said with some uncertainty:

"Perhaps...... Houjin had already prepared and hid some grain and grass? ”

"Okay, even so, I judge that they don't dare to attack my Da Zhou in a big way."

Yang Dong continued to speak, trying to find a way to round out his speech.

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about the attitude of Daqin?"

As soon as these words came out, Ji Ziyue's majestic face couldn't help but flash a look of thought.

Great Qin borders the Great Zhou and Houjin borders, and its own strength is the strongest of the three kingdoms. No matter how Hou Jin and Great Zhou went to war, they couldn't bypass Great Qin.

And will Daqin be the yellow finch that catches cicadas?

No one knows about this.

However, we have to guard against it!

Thinking of this, Ji Ziyue's eyes lit up slightly.

"You mean, in order to avoid a sneak attack by Great Qin, Houjin will not go south in a big way?"

After Yang Dong groaned slightly, he bowed his head slightly:

"Yes, Daqin's containment also affected the number of Houjin's southbound cavalry from the side. But how can Da Zhou hope for other countries? If it is in case the two countries have already been discussed, how to divide the Great Zhou, and what should it be? ”

Ji Ziyue frowned, and a look of calm flashed in her eyes.

"The emperor of today's Great Qin has long passed the age of being a king and hegemon. When I heard about him, I seem to have been obsessed with asking for medicine from immortals lately. He wants to live forever and become the king of all eternity! ”

Hearing this, Yang Dong's expression flashed slightly unnatural.

co-authored his cheap father, but he is somewhat similar to the Qin Emperor in the previous life.

After all, the first emperor of the ages, in his later years, was also obsessed with asking for immortal medicine and immortality.

On the other side, Ji Ziyue naturally didn't know what Yang Dong was thinking at the moment.

She frowned, thought for a long time, and then slowly spoke:

"But the Great Qin Emperor, although he no longer has the desire for land, he will definitely not let go of the fat that is sent to his mouth."

Speaking of this, a cold color flashed in her eyes.

"At the beginning, my father and the Emperor of Great Qin were brothers and had a very harmonious relationship. But he didn't think that his father had just passed away, and Da Qin came to ask for the New Year's coin with his backhand. ”

"This emperor's family is really the most ruthless!"

Hearing such emotion, Yang Dong couldn't help but cough dryly.

Say this as if you are not an emperor.

Not only are you from an imperial family, but you are also a true emperor!

"So Your Majesty thinks that Houjin has negotiated the distribution of interests with Daqin. That's why the Qin army will withdraw from Guyu Pass? ”

The empress bowed her head slightly and continued:

"If you want to come to this Youzhou horse farm, Daqin shouldn't let Houjin take it easily. But now, the time has not come. ”

Yang Dong groaned slightly, and suddenly felt a spiritual light flash in front of him.

Guyuguan, Youzhou Horse Farm, Daqin Army......

Is there anything we can do to make use of this?

Seeing that Yang Dong was silent in thought, the empress thought that he was also worried, so she opened her mouth and said with relief:

"If the Houjin cavalry really goes south, you will take Siyu to the south for refuge."

"I can leave a decree to make your child the crown prince."

As soon as these words came out, Yang Dong's whole person was stunned. He stared at the empress and said with a stunned expression:

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Ji Siyu, isn't she your sister, how can I ......?"

"Since you were born in the emperor's family, how can you be like an ordinary family? In the face of the inheritance of the Ji clan, none of this is important. ”

Speaking of this, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Ji Ziyue's cheeks.

"And this matter, it's clear that you kid is taking advantage, isn't it?"

"Xiao Dongzi, don't you want to be cheap and sell well, do you understand?"

Yang Dong perked up, looking at the empress's smiling eyes, a touch of panic flashed in his eyes.

Damn, could it be that the matter of stealing food has already been known by Yourong?

No, with a tolerant personality, I'm afraid I'll cut myself directly...... Maybe for the sake of the master's still some usefulness, leave a dog's life?

What does this smile mean!!

Yang Dong was a little flustered in his heart, but on the surface, he put on a righteous and awe-inspiring look.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be like this, if Your Majesty wants to defend the capital, then I will also stay here."

"Besides, the future has not yet been decided, and it is not yet known who the dark horse is!"

The future is undecided, is the dark horse still unknown?

The empress muttered to herself, and a gleam flashed in her majestic phoenix eyes.

"In that case, I would like to fight with the Golden Iron Rider."

"Xiao Dongzi, the scholars in Lanxiang Academy, how is the education?"

"You're in control."

Yang Dong just asked, so he answered directly.

"You have done a good job, and I deserve to reward you. But now that it's an eventful time, I'll give you credit first. ”

"Xiao Dongzi, according to the latest report from spies, a large amount of military rations has been hoarded in Guyu Pass. Houjin's iron cavalry, I'm afraid it will go south soon. ”

"From Guyuguan to the capital, it is only a decade. I'm afraid this national war is much earlier than I expected. ”

Some people died, but not completely......
