Chapter 578: Layout: The Prologue to the War (Part II)
PS: The war in the Seventeen States of Youhai has just begun!
Murong Yu's gaze swept over the faces of the three of them, nodded slightly, he looked at the marshal with a smile, and said, "I have long heard about my grandfather's Moon Legion, but I didn't expect to see the three legion elders as soon as I came, it's really worth the trip!"
With a wave of his hand, the door of the council hall was closed, and an enchantment was unfolded, and he asked in a low voice, "How many people did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bring with him on this trip?"
Murong Yu was stunned, spread his hands, and said with a wry smile: "I'm alone." ”
"What? you're alone?" said the marshal, in astonishment, "this one!
The marshal didn't believe that Murong Yu came alone at all, and the emperor's secret letter clearly said that the purpose of Murong Yu's trip was to recover the seventeen states of Youhai. However, just now, he had reached a consensus with the three army commanders, that is, at least one and a half million elites were needed to have the possibility of recovering the seventeen states of the Youhai Sea. If it is necessary to consolidate the rule of the Seventeen States of the Hidden Sea, at least two million troops are needed.
Lord Marshal's gaze fell on his son, and he hoped that Murong Yu was joking with him, but the latter nodded heavily. In an instant, Lord Marshal felt a chill in his heart, and he felt like he had been deceived. He even suspected that this was a means used by Emperor Bixia to suppress the Yu family.
If he sent troops to the sea and did not win, would Emperor Bixia be angry and beat the Yu family into a place of no return. Or maybe this is a problem set by Emperor Bixia in order to test Murong Yu, but. It's a difficult question.
The three legion elders also seemed to realize that Murong Yu's trip was for the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, but. Only one person came, did he want to recover the seventeen states of the hidden sea?
The three of them looked at each other. His brows shrank, and he looked at Murong Yu as if he had seen a ghost.
Murong Yu smiled lightly and said, "Grandpa, what's the matter?
The marshal smiled awkwardly, and smiled bitterly, not knowing how to answer. Of course, Murong Yu knew what they were thinking, he glanced at the sand table on the table, strode forward, and said, "Three legion elders. Fortunately, I will explain a little about the situation in the entire Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, as for the occupation of the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, I think there should be no problem within a month. ”
The three of them were once again stunned by Murong Yu's unashamed words, they frowned, and smiled bitterly like Lord Marshal, even Yu Zhongfeng couldn't cry or laugh at this time. They all know the Seventeen Prefectures of Youhai, which is a hard bone, and it is not so easy to swallow.
The marshal nodded slightly. No matter what, Murong Yu has always been his grandson, and he has to help him. Seeing the marshal nodding, the three legion elders immediately stood next to the sand table and began to explain the basic situation of the Seventeen Prefectures of Youhai.
Murong Yu interjected from time to time to ask a sentence or two. Occasionally, I will make a joke and praise the dangerous terrain here and the beautiful mountains here. Curse the cunning of the Heavenly Saint Empire, and sigh at the vastness of the seventeen states of the Hidden Sea.
The marshal has calmed down. He looked coldly at Murong Yu, whose eyes were flashing again and again, and slowly began to believe in his heart. This grandson who can create miracles may really be able to settle the dark sea. In particular, the ever-changing wrinkles between Murong Yu's brows and the constantly stretching brows showed that his mind was thinking about how to deal with it.
When the eyebrows shrank, it must have been a certain legion commander who raised a serious problem, and when the eyebrows were stretched, it meant that Murong Yu had already thought of a solution. Although Murong Yu didn't say it, the marshal knew that he was already confident.
More than two hours have passed, and the three army commanders have already explained all the situation in the seventeen states of Youhai. Of course, in order to frighten His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who does not know the height of the sky, they have already talked about the worst situation. What will be the total annihilation, what is the dilemma, what will be the inevitable defeat?
Murong Yu didn't react at all to the bad situation they said, not even a sigh or surprise, he seemed to be listening to something that had nothing to do with him. Murong Yu's calmness and calmness gradually infected the three army commanders, and at the same time, they also began to look forward to Murong Yu's performance.
Murong Yu straightened up, rubbed his arm, twisted his somewhat stiff neck, and asked, "Finished?"
"Yes, Your Highness, we have finished reporting. The three legion commanders replied in unison.
"I can't believe that this dark sea is so complicated, and it took so long. Murong Yu said with emotion, he didn't feel the difficulty of recovering the seventeen states of Youhai, or was surprised a few words, or complained a few words, but felt that it took too long to listen to the report.
The three of them frowned and glanced at Murong Yu, who was searching for things around, knowing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must want to find a chair, but due to the request of the old marshal, this room can be said to be destitute. Sure enough, Murong Yu couldn't find it, turned his head to look at his grandfather, and said with a wry smile: "Grandpa, are you very tight about military spending?"
The marshal said solemnly: "It's not that the military expenses are tight, it's just that all the soldiers who come here are soldiers, not here to enjoy the blessings, what do you want a chair for?"
Murong Yu was stunned, bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "What Grandpa taught me is that Yu'er remembered." ”
Yu Zhongfeng has been standing beside him, he also listened to the reports of the three army commanders, and he was also surprised a lot, but he didn't dare to squeak, after all, this is a military matter, and besides, there is a father and Murong Yu here, and it is not his turn to speak. Now that it seemed that the meeting was over, Yu Zhongfeng asked weakly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, why don't you go back to Xinyu City, I will set up a banquet for Your Highness to catch the wind and wash the dust." ”
Murong Yu said with a smile: "Uncle, you don't have to be so polite, I am about to take over the conquest of the Seventeen Prefectures of the Hidden Sea, and then I will go to participate in the Demon Martial Arts Exchange Meeting of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, next time I will definitely go to the mansion to visit my uncle and aunt in person." ”
Turning his head to look at the marshal, Murong Yu said solemnly: "Grandpa, I think you should have received a secret letter from the imperial grandfather." ”
"Yes, Bixia said that as long as you come, everything here is under your command. "Your Excellency Marshal.
"Very well! I now announce that I have officially taken over the command here, and I hope that the three legion commanders will obey unconditionally. Murong Yu said.
The three corps commanders looked at the marshal at the same time, they were Yu Yuanren's hand, naturally they looked at the marshal's face, and seeing the marshal nodded, the three corps commanders immediately bowed down and received the order: "Obey the dispatch of His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Murong Yu looked straight and said sharply: "I hope the three generals understand that this is a war and must be meticulously carried out my orders." ”
The three legion elders immediately knelt on one knee and responded loudly: "Swear to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the death!"
"Three generals, please get up!" Murong Yu said, with a wave of his big hand, the three of them were forcibly held up.
"War is cruel, and as a general, one wrong order can put all soldiers in danger and even lead to the destruction of the whole army. Murong Yu continued: "Although I have not been in contact with you for a long time, you must unconditionally trust my decisions and orders, and I will not joke with the lives of the imperial soldiers. ”
"I am only responsible for the big strategic deployment, and the specific implementation is still carried out by the marshal. Murong Yu looked at Yu Yuanren as he spoke, and asked, "Grandpa, is there no problem?"
Yu Yuanren stepped forward and bowed slightly, and responded: "I am willing to serve His Royal Highness the Prince!"
Murong Yu's gaze turned to the sand table, and he calmly issued the first order: "Twilight Moon Legion, immediately assemble Filding City, coerce the Khedis Alliance, and wait for my next order." ”
General Gotha, the commander of the Twilight Moon Legion, immediately knelt down on one knee: "The last general takes the order!"
Murong Yu's gaze turned to his grandfather and asked, "How many warships do we have, and what is the transportation capacity of the warships?"
Marshal Yu Yuanren immediately replied: "We have one hundred and twenty warships, large and small, and it is estimated that they can transport 100,000 soldiers. ”
"Very well, the Burning Moon Legion has sent 100,000 elites by ship to the southernmost part of the Heddis, the port of Brooke, which is the sea artery of the Heddis, and you are mainly going to take over the defense there. Murong Yu ordered again: "As for the remaining 100,000 people, all assemble in Adams City, south of Fielding City, and prepare for the battle." ”
The Burning Moon Legion's Legion Commander Hevis asked, "Your Highness, are we going to take over Brook Harbor, where are the great armies of the Hedis Alliance stationed?"
"I know, don't worry, if you go, I'll take it over for you when the time comes. Murong Yu said, "You must avoid the checkpoints along the coast, and it is best to sail away from the coastline, and wait for my orders on the sea south of Brook Harbor. ”
"No general!" replied Hehuas.
They all suspected in their hearts that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not ask them to capture Brooke Harbor, but asked them to take over. The difference between the two words is not an ordinary taste, since Murong Yu asked them to take over, it is not easy for them to ask for the time being.
"The Pure Moon Legion, from today onwards, will go north and enter the front line of the Rainbow River to suppress the Heavenly Saint Empire and prevent their southern legion from going south. Murong Yu ordered again.
Just now, the three of them talked to the marshal that the Heavenly Saint Empire would definitely find another way to go south, but they didn't expect Murong Yu to really want him to go to Hongxi. Rainbow Creek is very close to the Hedis League, and if you pass through the territory of the Hedis League, you can go directly to the first city of Sitney in the north of the Youdis League.
Pan Bao, the commander of the Jingyue Legion, immediately bowed down and received the order: "My subordinates must guard the northern line." ”
After speaking, Murong Yu looked at Yu Zhongfeng and said, "City Lord, the Yulin Legion, the Viper Legion in the south, and the Giant Wolf Legion in the north will soon be stationed in Xinyu City, please do a good job of logistics." ”
Hearing the help of the three legions, the commanders of the three legions breathed a sigh of relief. However, Murong Yu's next words made them worry again. (To be continued......)
