Liu Yuan looked down at the map on the table again, then smiled slightly, and whispered to Ding Jiang, "I'll talk about it tomorrow." After speaking, Liu Yuan laughed and no longer talked about the war with Ding Jiang, but chatted.

Outside the tent, the cold winter wind blew the snow, and the sky was foggy.

Night is approaching, and the entire camp of Dongwangfu is still busy.

The next day, early in the morning.

The wind was cold.

Huang Yuanwu summoned all the generals and discussed the big tent.

When Liu Yuan heard this order, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile at the corner.

In the big tent, more than a dozen high-ranking generals were arranged in two rows, and Huang Yuanwu sat in the first seat, his face calm.

After a night, his mood had calmed down a lot. Huang Yongning's matter, as he said in his letter, is not something that can be solved now. Even if the mastermind behind the scenes is found, there is no way to rescue Huang Yongning with the power of the East Palace. Since the other party took Huang Yongning away politely and did not use force, there is still room for turnaround, and the rest only needs to wait for the other party to come to him, and the truth can be revealed.

Looking at the generals lined up on both sides of the big tent, Huang Yuanwu became even more determined in his heart.

"Gather all of you and let me know. Huang Yuanwu got straight to the point, and said in a deep voice: "I am going to send troops to attack the imperial capital, and this matter will be discussed with you, how to break through the imperial capital and slash the dog thief Yang Qin." ”

As soon as Huang Yuanwu's voice fell, all the generals were shocked, and then almost all of them had a burst of excitement in their hearts for no reason.

After such a long time, the little prince of Yuanwu finally has to make a move.

"Little prince, the last general is willing to lead five thousand troops as the vanguard and attack the imperial capital!" A general stepped forward, clasped his fists at Emperor Yuanwu, and asked for battle in a deep voice.

"The last general is also willing to be a pioneer!"

"The last will go!"

Huang Yuanwu's words obviously aroused the excitement of all the generals present, and many generals asked for battle. But Huang Yuanwu didn't speak, he turned his gaze to Liu Yuan, who was standing on the side like an iron tower, with an inquiring meaning in his eyes.

Liu Yuan smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "Little prince, the last general is willing to stay in the Chinese army." ”

The generals present were stunned when they heard Liu Yuan's words. Liu Yuan is known as Liu Bunon, he usually fights, he is the best candidate for the vanguard, the battle is fierce and brave, it is said that all the generals present, there is no more suitable to be a pioneer than Liu Yuan, but she is now speaking, but she is going to the position where she wants to keep her hand.

"Liu Buxiu wants to stay?" Huang Yuanwu was also stunned, and said: "Lord Liu, this is not like you, tell me, why." ”

"The little prince has already made up his mind to attack the imperial capital?" Liu Yuan did not immediately answer Huang Yuanwu's words, but asked rhetorically.

Huang Yuanwu nodded lightly and said, "Exactly." ”

"There are only two reasons why our army has been in a stalemate here for so long, one is because of the sudden attacks that disrupted the rhythm of our deployment. Second, in front of the imperial capital, there are still a large number of troops in the Northern Palace, once we make a move against the imperial capital, the Northern Palace, will definitely not stand idly by. The Northern Emperor wanted to be the emperor of the heavens, and everyone knew about it. Liu Yuan said in a deep voice: "Therefore, to send troops to the imperial capital, someone must stay in the camp to prevent a sudden attack by the Northern Palace, and the position of our current camp also needs to be pushed forward and left between this mountain range." ”

"Lord Liu's words are not unreasonable. A general rushed to Emperor Yuanwu and clenched his fists, and said: "However, the number of our royal army is limited and cannot support a two-sided battle, if this is the case, it is better to directly attack the Northern Palace, take the Northern Palace, and then attack the imperial capital with all your might, so as to avoid worries." ”

"The North King's Mansion

The army is very powerful, and I am afraid that it is not something that can be won easily. Another general said in a deep voice.

"Once we start a full-scale war with the Northern Palace, it will give the imperial capital Yang Qin a chance, and now a large number of troops in the nearby provinces are eyeing each other, and they have not yet risen up, and it is also because the situation in the imperial capital is unknown, and they do not have the courage yet. If we go to war with the Northern Palace, these people will inevitably make some moves, which will most likely lead to a rebellion in the entire empire. At that time, not only will we not be able to save the empire, but we may also become sinners of the empire and become the target of public criticism. ”

"In my opinion, don't take care of the Northern Palace, we will attack the imperial capital with all our might, Yang Qin does not have many men and horses in the imperial capital, after breaking through the imperial capital and taking Yang Qin, we occupy the imperial capital, and the Northern Palace, there is no other way, and in the end we can only withdraw the army. ”

"The sudden rise of the Northern Palace, there must be some hidden forces behind it, if you don't find out his truth and truth, it is unwise to start a war with the Northern Palace. ”

Liu Yuan's words caused a heated discussion among the generals present, and these generals were basically divided into two factions, one faction supported a direct attack on the imperial capital, and took the imperial capital in the fastest time, without giving too much time to the Northern Palace. One faction supports a direct attack on the North Palace, and after taking the North Palace, they will attack the imperial capital to avoid worries.

In their eyes, the battle of the East Palace, which is invincible, and there is no possibility that there will be no achievements and turn around and leave when they see difficulties.

The generals present are all generals of a hundred battles, and they have all thought of the things that Huang Yuanwu has considered, in fact, about the situation in the imperial capital, not only Huang Yuanwu is worried, but all the generals know the current situation, so they can also understand Huang Yuanwu's inner struggle. In the face of such a situation, passive defense is not the best policy at all, and only by taking the initiative can we seize the initiative in our own hands.

The generals present were arguing, and Huang Yuanwu leaned back in his chair, watching them fight with red faces, but he was unmoved. Last night, he had already made a plan, how to fight, how to seize the initiative in his own hands, he already had a plan.

Liu Yuan stood quietly, looking at Huang Yuanwu indifferently, he also had a plan in his heart, and it was also part of his strategy to say the words left behind in the army.

"Okay, be quiet. After a while, the generals argued for a long time, and in the end they didn't decide a winner, Huang Yuanwu waved his hand lightly, let everyone calm down, and then said softly: "The matter of attacking the imperial capital has been decided, you don't need to argue anymore, the time is not ripe to fight head-on against the North Palace, so I will not use troops against the North Palace, Ding Jiang." ”

"The last general!" Hearing Huang Yuanwu call his name, Ding Jiang immediately stepped forward and clenched his fists with both hands.

"I order you to take 30,000 soldiers as the vanguard, camp ten miles before you go to the imperial capital, set up on the square before the imperial capital, take all the siege facilities, and be ready to attack the city at any time, Wang Qian, you will be Ding Jiang's deputy general." While giving an order to Ding Jiang, Huang Yuanwu looked at a burly general on the side and said.

"The last general respects the order!" Ding Jiang and Wang Qian knelt on one knee at the same time and received the order in a loud voice.

"Shi Wencheng, Liao Tianhua. Huang Yuanwu looked at the two generals again.

"The last general!" the two middle-aged generals walked out and knelt on one knee.

"The two of you each lead 10,000 soldiers, on both sides of the forward battalion, when attacking the city, you don't need to come forward to help, show me the situation of the two accompanying cities, if the North Wangfu sends troops, intercept it immediately, there must be no mistake!" Huang Yuanwu calmly ordered.

"The last general's order!" the two generals shouted their orders.

"Liu Yuan. Huang Yuanwu turned his gaze to Liu Yuan.

“

The end will be. Liu Yuan clenched his hands into fists and said in a deep voice.

"Order you to take 40,000 troops, stationed behind the two accompanying cities, ready to attack at any time, once the North Wangfu has any action, there is no need to obey the order, directly attack the city. Huang Yuanwu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said softly.

"The last general commanded. Liu Yuan laughed and knelt on one knee. The position arranged by Huang Yuanwu for him was in line with Liu Yuan's mind, this attack on the imperial capital, in fact, the opponent was not Yang Qin of the imperial capital at all, but Huang Zhengchu of the Northern Palace.

It can be seen from all the details that no matter who the enemy troops that suddenly appeared belong to, they are all inclined to the Northern Palace, and now the Northern Emperor Zhengchu is likely to be under the control of these people, and they need to let Huang Zhengchu ascend to the throne of the empire in exchange for their own interests. Huang Yuanwu arranged it like this, which was to force the other party to show up and seize the initiative in his own hands.

"I will lead all the remaining sergeants to help you. Ding Jiang, once you receive the order to siege the city, you must use all means and use the fastest speed to take the outer city of the imperial capital for me, Yang Qin does not have many soldiers in his hands, and it is more than enough to give you the most elite 30,000 people. Huang Yuanwu looked at Ding Jiang and Wang Qian, and said again.

"The last general will be honored!" Ding Jiang and Wang Qian replied in a deep voice.

"Everyone go down and prepare, and start tomorrow!" Huang Yuanwu waved his hand, and all the generals withdrew after saluting, and they were busy separately.

Only Liu Yuan stayed where he was and didn't leave, he was looking at Huang Yuanwu with a smile on his face, Huang Yuanwu glanced at him, couldn't help but sneer, and said, "What are you looking at?"

"This is what the prince of the palace should be. Liu Yuan said in a deep voice: "There is one thing you have to know in your heart, such an arrangement can force the people behind the scenes to appear, but if an accident occurs, it may lead to an uncontrollable situation." Moreover, the grain and grass we have now can be used by the whole army for another two months at most, and within two months, the war in the imperial capital must be ended, or the imperial capital and the three accompanying cities must be occupied, or evacuated. Moreover, the tragic situation of the battle to be faced later is likely to exceed expectations and if this is done, the troops of the surrounding provinces will not be on the sidelines for the first time. ”

"I understand. Huang Yuanwu nodded lightly and said, "So I didn't plan to fight for two months, within ten days, we will see." You have the heaviest task, so be careful and safe. ”

"Hahaha. When Liu Yuan heard this, he smiled and said, "I'm careful and safe, are you still worried about the enemy." After speaking, Liu Yuan lifted his spear and left with a smile.

Today, Huang Yuanwu saw Liu Yuan's departing back again, and the feeling in his heart was much better than yesterday.

Sometimes things are like this, once you fall into the strange circle in your own heart, you will feel that things are unsolvable, but when you really take a step, you realize that things are not as complicated as you imagined.

The hidden force, with great energy, can control a large teleportation array, and this force is probably not something that the East Wangfu can deal with. But they wanted the Dongwangfu to withdraw from the chess game of the imperial capital, but they refused to show up, which shows that these people definitely have some unsightly circumstances, which forced them to use such means to force Huang Yuanwu to withdraw his troops.

Then to break this situation, there is one most direct way, attack.

Huang Yuanwu believes that as long as the Dongwang Mansion makes a move, let them see that the Dongwang Mansion has absolutely no idea of withdrawing troops, these people will definitely show up, and when the time comes, many questions in their hearts will be answered one by one.

This is far more practical than letting yourself hold in a big tent and thinking about it every day.

The barracks outside began to get busy, and the three barracks began to prepare for opening at the same time.

Above the sky, dark clouds gathered here, and the cold wind blew the falling snow on the plains of the imperial capital and drifted away into the distance.
