Chapter 1642 The court battle!
Dashang Palace, Fengtian Hall.
After going to court, the atmosphere has been very heavy.
The Eight Tribes of Mobei sent troops, and Dashang had to respond as soon as possible to resist the Eight Tribes' offensive.
It has to be said that after the fall of Baidi City, Dashang was completely on the defensive. Attack and defense all depended on the looks of others.
"Dear Martial Kings, will the armies of the Eight Tribes of Mobei attack directly towards the capital?"
In the imperial court, some civil servants who were greedy for life and fearful of death had been worried and frightened after hearing the news of the troops in Mobei. After enduring it for a long time, they finally couldn't help but one person stood up and asked anxiously.
In front of the ministers, the triumphant king stood quietly and ignored him.
Behind them, King Guanshan showed no intention of answering. He never had a good impression of these old guys who were greedy for life and fearful of death.
"It's hard to say."
On the side, King Donglin, who was born in a noble family, did not say anything when he saw several uncles. Out of his own qualities and education, he responded politely and explained, "Although the eight tribes of Mobei are currently marching in the direction of the capital, but,
Soldiers are treacherous, and tactics and strategies may change at any time."
King Guan Shan rolled his eyes when he heard someone's nonsense analysis. Even fools knew it if he said this.
"Kaixuan, don't you say a few words?"
In front of the two of them, King Zhongwu looked at the King of Triumph beside him and responded in a low voice.
"say what?"
The King of Triumph asked, "Are you sure of the purpose of the Eight Tribes of Mobei now? Anyway, I'm not sure."
As for war, let alone it has not started yet, even if it does start, it may be an attack in the east and an attack in the west, and no one can predict it in advance.
After all, the initiative in today's war is not on their side, and passive defense must be a pre-emptive strike.
"King Triumphant, you have the most experience in leading troops, please tell me your opinion." On the dragon throne, the Shang Emperor looked at the Great Shang Army God in front of the ministers below, and began to order people and said.
"My lord, I only have one opinion."
The triumphant king walked out and saluted respectfully, "On the other side of the western border, set up a defensive posture as soon as possible to block the Tianyu Palace army from the country. In this way, I, the great merchant, can concentrate on fighting the Mobei cavalry."
"King Triumphant's suggestion is good. The task of blocking the Tianyu Palace's army will be left to you, King Triumphant." On the dragon throne, Emperor Shang said calmly.
"My lord, take the order."
The triumphant king accepted the order and then returned to his position.
When King Zhongwu saw King Triumphant walking back, he quietly gave a thumbs up and said in a low voice, "What a thief. It looks like he said something, but actually he didn't say anything."
Your Majesty asked for your opinion, referring to his views on resisting the Mobei cavalry. This guy's ability to directly involve the Western Region and secretly change concepts is really amazing.
No wonder this old guy is the head of the King of Martial Arts, and he has never even done anything to him, a relative of the emperor.
The triumphant king heard the meaning of the words of the people around him, but he looked at the words with his eyes, nose and heart, and pretended not to hear them.
Have an opinion?
If you can give any opinions now, you can only check them out first, and don’t let others take advantage of you.
"King Zhongwu, what about you?"
Emperor Shang noticed what King Zhongwu was whispering, and continued to name names and asked, "What suggestions do you have?"
"I think"
When King Zhongwu heard that he was called, he stepped out of the queue, bowed respectfully, and said, "First of all, we must strengthen the defense of the capital, but there is no need to over-station troops. Our next main task is to follow the instructions of the Eight Divisions of Mobei."
We will develop offensive tactics, formulate corresponding defensive methods, and fight a war of attrition with Mobei."
"Being led around by the nose?"
On the other side of the hall, several civil servants heard King Zhongwu's opinion and were immediately unwilling to do so. A middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks walked out and questioned, "I am a great businessman with many generals. Why should I act based on other people's looks instead of taking the initiative?"
Attack, pre-emptively?"
When King Zhongwu heard the stupid question from the monkey behind him, he really had no desire to respond.
idiot!
He felt suffocated breathing under the same sky as these idiots.
"Of course not."
Behind the triumphant king, King Guanshan couldn't bear it any longer and mocked, "Because war is fought by soldiers with their lives, not by your words, sir. If you say preemptive strike, we will strike first. We must first judge the accuracy of Mobei
The most appropriate tactics can be formulated based on the purpose. If your Excellency has different opinions, I can take you with me on this expedition to ensure that you give full play to your talents."
"King Guanshan, you!"
When the middle-aged civil servant with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks heard the ridicule of King Guanshan, his expression changed again and again, but he knew his own weakness, how could he dare to go to the front line with the army, and finally endured the feeling of being useless and did not dare to say anything.
"Guanshan."
Sitting on the dragon throne, Emperor Shang looked at the tense atmosphere below and scolded softly, "Pay attention to court etiquette."
"Your Majesty, forgive me."
King Guan Shan bowed his hands in a salute and immediately stepped back.
"The Commoner King."
After several kings of Wu expressed their opinions, Emperor Shang looked at the kings of commoners who were queens of Wu, and asked, "What's your opinion?"
Behind King Guanshan, Huanzhu heard that he was also called, stepped out, and saluted respectfully, "Reporting to Your Majesty, I agree with King Zhongwu's proposal to strengthen the defenses in the capital, but do not increase the number of troops excessively to prevent the response from changing.
In all changes, the eight tribes in Mobei may not really be heading towards the capital. Let’s check first. The only way to find an opportunity to fight back is to start a war.”
In front, the four kings of Wu heard the answer from the king of civilians behind, and their faces showed approval.
not bad.
Although the commoner king is young, his thinking is very clear and he does not make any advances.
Pre-emptive strike?
Send him first!
As long as this war continues, Dashang's chances of winning are actually higher than those of the Eight Tribes of Mobei.
War is not about fighting in the arena, it is about winning beautifully. War is inherently ugly, as long as it can be won, no matter how it is done.
On the Dragon Throne, Emperor Shang heard the opinions of several Martial Kings, thought for a while, and said, "Then let's listen to the opinions of several Martial Kings. King Triumphant will first go to the west to frighten the young people in Tianyu Palace, King Zhongwu, and King Guanshan.
, King of Commoners, you return to the army and be on standby at any time. As for King Donglin, you stay in the capital and guard the capital, just in case."
"yes!"
