After listening to Emperor Xia's words, all the ministers couldn't believe it, because this had completely subverted their cognition.

Even if the king of the north is not a waste, with the soldiers in the north county, it will be difficult to even defend Yancheng.

Now he actually told them that the king of the north not only defended Yancheng, but also ate the 300,000 army of the barbarians!!

Who would dare to believe this?

At this time, several princes in the court were stunned!!

Isn't the ninth brother the most wasteful of them all, hasn't he been hollowed out by wine?

Can he still lead the soldiers of the North County to defeat the 300,000 army of the barbarians?

This is what he can do as a piece of waste???

Everyone in the court wondered if they were still dreaming, which was why they dreamed of such a ridiculous thing.

The court was full of Great Xia people, and they should have been very happy after hearing this earth-shattering battle report, but at this time, no one in the court was happy.

If all of what Emperor Xia said is true and can be confirmed, it means that Great Xia is about to change!!

Killing 200,000 barbarians and capturing 100,000 barbarians is comparable to Emperor Xia's exploits in destroying the Chen State back then!

With such a big credit, who would dare not let the king of the north be the crown prince?

The King of the North, this has even reached the point of being a master of high merit!

At this time, everyone had a puzzle, that is, how did the North King do it?

Secondly, the ministers were very worried, the Northern King, who had always been regarded as a waste by them, would not really return to the capital and become the crown prince, right?

In the court, there is a faction of the Eight Princes, a faction of the Great Prince, and the forces of other princes, but there are no officials of the Nine Emperors.

Now even the officials of the Chu family in the court are already members of the Eight Emperors' faction.

As a result, at this time, they were told that the Nine Emperor Princes were going back to the capital to become the crown prince! This is equivalent to making the investment of all the ministers in the court go down the drain.

They would never allow such a thing to happen.

Emperor Xia also saw from the faces of the ministers that they didn't believe it, or didn't dare to believe it, so he continued: "According to the intelligence of all parties, the North King has at least 50,000 heavy cavalry in his hands, and just a few days ago, the North King asked 5,000 heavy cavalry to go south and took all his wives and concubines and children back to Yancheng. ”

As soon as Emperor Xia's words came out, he once again detonated the court.

Five...... 50,000 heavy cavalry???

How is this possible!!

How could the King of the North have so many heavy cavalry in his hands!!

What the heavy cavalry represents, how could the ministers not know.

When Taizu fought the world in the summer of that year, 3,000 heavy cavalry directly chased after other people's 100,000 peasant troops and cut them.

Now there are only 20,000 heavy cavalry in the entire Great Xia, and heavy cavalry requires a lot of resources, and a cavalry needs at least three excellent horses.

In addition to horses, the most important thing for heavy cavalry is armor.

A set of armor of heavy cavalry may not be created by a craftsman in a month, at least three months.

How long has the king of the north been in the northern county, how can he have 50,000 heavy cavalry!

What is the concept of having 50,000 heavy cavalry?

This means that now the king of the north directly announced that he would break away from Great Xia and establish himself as the emperor!

And if the king of the north really has 100,000 barbarian captives, it means that even if the court knows that he is likely to rebel, the court still does not dare to do anything to him at this time, but can only focus on appeasement.

It stands to reason that the Northern King doesn't have that time, nor does he have so many resources to build 50,000 heavy cavalry, so where did these heavy cavalry come from?

Since the existence of these 50,000 heavy cavalry has been confirmed by various intelligences, the problem is very big.

As soon as the 50,000 heavy cavalry of the Northern King came out, it meant that he not only had the ability to rebel, but also had the mind to rebel.

In the territory of Great Xia, especially when the Xia Emperor cut down the feudal domain every year, a feudal king created 50,000 heavy cavalry, isn't this trying to rebel?

At this time, Zhao Wenhan couldn't bear it anymore, and he asked directly: "Your Majesty, the minister dares to ask, is it true that the Northern King has 50,000 heavy cavalry?" ”

Emperor Xia said indifferently: "This information was transmitted back by Wang Dujun, and it was also confirmed by my shadow guard. ”

Hearing this, the ministers gasped.

So, is this true?

Does the Northern King really have 50,000 heavy cavalry?

No wonder the previous battle report said that the North King led the soldiers of the North County to kill 200,000 barbarians overnight!

But then again, it is absolutely impossible for Beijun to have as simple as having 50,000 heavy cavalry.

Heavy cavalry has an overwhelming advantage in fighting against infantry, especially peasant soldiers, but when it comes to barbarian cavalry, the advantage is not obvious, and there may even be a disadvantage.

Because the heavy cavalry is more clumsy than the barbarian light cavalry, it is not easy to catch up with the barbarian light cavalry, and the barbarian soldiers should have an easy time if they want to escape.

If the battle report of the North King leading his soldiers to kill 200,000 barbarian soldiers is true, it must mean that the North King still has something in his hands.

As for whether this thing is a weapon or an army, it's hard to say.

At this time, the court fell into a deathly silence again.

It stands to reason that at this time, someone should impeach the king of the north and want to rebel, but the timing of the appearance of the heavy cavalry of the north county is really good, and it happens that the 300,000 army of the barbarians is moving south.

Someone else Beiwang led the soldiers of Beijun to defeat the barbarians, and you jumped out at this time and said that Beiwang intended to rebel, so isn't this looking for death?

Who dares to come out and accuse the North King at this time?

This is the biggest battle feat since the establishment of Great Xia!

Who can blame the King of the North?

Seeing that there were no ministers in the court to speak, Emperor Xia said coldly: "What, didn't you even eat breakfast when you went to the court one by one, and you didn't have the strength to speak at all?" Aren't you usually very energetic? Why are they all dumb today? ”

As soon as Emperor Xia's words fell, Zhao Wenhan immediately knelt down, and then bowed to Emperor Xia and said: "His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is brave and good at fighting, leading the soldiers of Beijun to kill 200,000 barbarian soldiers, and also capturing 100,000 barbarian soldiers, he is actually the third person after His Majesty Xia Taizu, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes has made such a huge contribution, and it must be rewarded, but ordinary things are no longer worthy of the merits of His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes, and I implore Your Majesty to allow His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes to return to Beijing, and make His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes the crown prince!" ”

After hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, some ministers cursed Zhao Wenhan in their hearts, what an old fox, knowing that Emperor Xia was young and strong, he had been reluctant to establish a prince because he was afraid that the prince would have other thoughts.

Zhao Wenhan jumped out to set up the crown prince at this time, and he didn't think about making the Northern King the crown prince at all, he was purely disgusting the Xia Emperor, and provoking the father-son relationship between the Xia Emperor and the Northern Wang.

After hearing Zhao Wenhan's words, Emperor Xia did not speak immediately, he glanced at the ministers in the court.

He's waiting.

Wait for the other person to speak.

At this time, Lin Gaoyuan, who was kneeling on the ground, instantly understood what Emperor Xia meant, and he immediately said: "Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness the Ninth Emperor Prince has made earth-shattering achievements, the minister thinks that the establishment of the crown prince is a big trouble, and it should not be so hasty. ”

Emperor Xia still didn't speak, his gaze fell on the princes in front of him.

At this time, several princes were sweating profusely, and they didn't dare to breathe.

Especially the Eighth Emperor Lu Shuyun.

He had come to his senses.

He finally knew why each of his assassinations had failed, and he finally knew who had washed his mansion in blood.

This ninth brother of theirs is too deeply hidden!

Everyone in Great Xia was deceived by him!
