A young man who looked somewhat similar to Emperor Tianqi sat on a golden chair with a stern look on his face and said in a cold voice: "When are the four major countries going to take action?"
"Back to my lord, Japanese soldiers and horses have already entered the Ming Dynasty's coast. They will land on the coast in three days at most and launch an attack. As soon as the Ming Dynasty mobilizes its troops, the Tatars will take advantage of the situation to attack Yumu Prefecture and invade the Central Plains."
"At that time, Annan and Tibet will respond to each other, invade together, and start a war."
A general wearing armor saluted respectfully and said in a deep voice.
This person is none other than Lin Feng, one of the five great generals in Yumu Prefecture, codenamed Zhan Hu.
The man on the golden chair in front of him is the actual controller of Yumu Prefecture, the governor of Yumu Prefecture, the second prince of the Ming Dynasty, and the God of War of the Ming Dynasty - Zhu Youtang.
Zhu Youtang looked at Lin Feng and ordered: "Zhan Hu and the Tatar invasion are planned matters, but Yumu Prefecture is the foundation of my business for many years and must not be messed up. During the process of borrowing the road, please inform me Tatars, let them go to the southernmost city of Rain Curtain."
Zhu Youtang's voice was very calm, but Lin Feng understood that under his indifferent tone, Yulian City was abandoned.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lin Feng cupped his hands and said.
"The Emei Sect can't handle it well, so Zuo Lengchan still wants to be the leader of the martial arts alliance? It's ridiculous." Zhu Youtang smiled contemptuously, shook his head and said, "If it weren't for the fact that the "Huo Xue Jing" in his hand was still somewhat useful, he would have been there long ago. Get rid of him."
"Zhan Hu, under the catalysis of the Huoxue Meridian, how many people in the White Tiger Camp have been promoted to the eighth rank?"
"Three hundred and eighty-seven people have been promoted to the eighth level, and the rest are still at the seventh level." Lin Feng replied.
Zhu Youtang's eyes flashed, he calculated a little, and asked: "How many people died?"
"One hundred and fifty-two people." Lin Feng replied.
"The side effects are too great. If the situation were not urgent, I would not take this step."
"This king's fourth brother is so good at handling such a complicated court situation. He was able to subdue the iron gall god, which I did not expect."
"Tiedan Shenhou goes to defend Yangguan Town, abandons Tatar and Yumu Prefecture, focuses on defending and dragging, and concentrates on dealing with Annan and Japan. It is a good way to deal with it, but well, Tiedan Shenhou alone Grandmaster, can you hold Yang Pass?"
Zhu Youtang stood up, looked at the map hanging on the wooden board, and sneered: "The Lama Sect and Vajra Sect in the Western Regions have agreed to cooperate. As long as Japan takes action, they will unite with the martial arts in the Western Regions and cooperate with the Tubo army to attack Yangguan Town.”
"At that time, even if Zhu Wuwu has three heads and six arms, he will be killed by the masters of the Western Regions."
"My lord, I think that joining the four major countries to invade the Central Plains is actually a plan to drive away tigers and devour wolves. The consequences will definitely be that the tigers will be more in danger than the wolves. If the four major countries give up cooperation and only want to carve up our country, I am afraid that by then , it’s hard for us to resist!” Lin Feng reminded.
"Haha!" Zhu Youtang chuckled, with a hint of chill in his eyes. Looking at the territory on the map, the corner of his mouth curled up: "Cooperation?"
"To tear down the mill and kill the donkey, to cross the river and burn the bridge is the core of everything."
"Who said we cooperated?"
"The four major powers invaded the Central Plains. I, Zhu Youtang, brought order to the chaos and was the hero who saved the Ming Dynasty. How can the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty have any reason to cooperate with the enemy countries?"
Lin Feng was slightly startled, and instantly understood what Zhu Youtang meant, and asked tentatively: "My lord, what do you mean?"
"The Tatars invaded the Central Plains through Yumu Prefecture. The grain and grass transportation route is right under our noses. As long as the grain and grass are cut off and the gate of Yumu Prefecture is closed, the Tatars will be headless flies and can only be defeated by the Ming soldiers. The horses have devoured Annan, which is just a small area. They have no strength to invade. Once the Tatars stop, they will have no choice but to retreat."
"As for Japan, it's just an island country. So what if we let it occupy the coast? As long as they dare to invade the hinterland, I will have my own way to deal with it. Tubo is a trouble, but it doesn't matter. As long as I allow the Lama Sect to preach in the Central Plains, the Lama Sect will handle it on its own. Good things about Tubo."
Zhu Youtang had already considered that the four kingdoms of Tatar, Annan, Japan, and Tubo were just his chess pieces and could be used by him.
How could Zhu Youtang really put all his hopes in the hands of these people?
Seeking skin from a tiger, Zhu Youtang, as the Ming God of War, naturally had his own considerations.
The Ming Dynasty was so big that it far surpassed the four major countries. The terrain was complex and the depth was too long. No one country could conquer it. Even if the four countries worked together to conquer it, it would be very difficult.
As long as their soldiers and horses enter the Ming Dynasty territory, Zhu Youtang will be able to deal with them. After all, the soldiers of Baihu Camp, as well as various firearms and crossbows, are not vegetarians.
There are risks, of course, but the benefits are greater.
Zhu Youtang can take advantage of this opportunity to directly become the emperor of tomorrow, and he can also severely damage the four major countries and win a chance to breathe for himself. As for how many people will die?
This is not what he has to consider.
If you don't fight or grab, he will die.
If the fourth prince Zhu Youji really becomes the emperor, he and Concubine Wan Gui will not let him go.
Zhu Youtang knew this very well, so he had to seek skin from a tiger and make a bet this time.
"My lord, the special envoys from various countries are waiting for you at Beida Camp. Do you want to go and see them?" Lin Feng asked.
"Mozhi, the master of the Tubo Kingdom, Basang, the reincarnated soul boy of Lamaism, Mr. Musashi, the head of the Iga Sect in Japan, Liu Wuyan, the general of the Annan Kingdom, and Batulu, the leader of the Sirius Sect of the Tartar Kingdom." Lin Feng said softly.
"Four Grandmasters, one Ninth Grade? See me?"
"Hmph! Interesting!"
Zhu Youtang's eyes flashed and he ordered: "Ask Yang Zixu from the Demon Sect's Bending Dao and the people from the Kunlun Demon Sect's Divine Sword Hall to go with me."
"Yes, I will make arrangements now." Lin Feng bowed respectfully and turned to leave.
After Lin Feng left, only Zhu Youtang was left in the entire camp.
"Hmph! Grandmaster of the Four Great Countries?"
Zhu Youtang snorted coldly and closed his eyes silently.
…
In Yumu Prefecture, there is a secluded place outside Zhu Youtang's camp.
"Now is not the best time to take action. I have just investigated and found that there are six unusual auras in the entire camp. In other words, there are at least six masters in the camp with different auras. They are probably from the four major kingdoms and demons. The master of the sect."
Yagyu Tajima Mamoru had a serious look on his face, looking at the well-disciplined camp, and said in a low voice.
Yagyu Taimamomo is a ninja and an assassin. He knows the essentials of assassination best. He can't succeed in one blow and can escape thousands of miles away without too many entanglements.
His purpose is very simple, to kill the target in the quickest and simplest way.
Therefore, there are so many grandmasters at the moment, more than their own. There is no need to join forces at this time and kill them forcefully. This is not worth the gain.
"It's a waste of time, just rush in and be done with it." Gu Santong looked at the tightly sealed military camp and sneered.
"Six grandmasters, plus the camp's firearms, God-breaking crossbows, and tens of thousands of troops, it will be very troublesome if we are entangled. Please be patient and wait."
Hearing this, Yagyu Tajima Mamoru said softly: "Blood Ancestor, what's your opinion?"
"Whatever, the more people there are, the more beneficial it is to me." The Earth Sect Taoist leader replied with a cold tone.
"Let's wait a little longer. It's impossible for so many experts to stay for too long. They will definitely leave here in a day or two at most. By then, we will sneak into the camp and assassinate Zhu Youtang." Yagyu Tajima Mamoru expressed his opinion. .
"I have no objection." Di Zong Taoist leader replied.
"Okay, Gu San Tong, what about you?" Yagyu Taimamomo asked, still looking at the camp.
However, after a long time, no one responded.
"Um?"
Yagyu Tajima Mamoru's expression changed slightly, he suddenly turned around and found that the ancient three links were missing?
"Damn it!"
Yagyu Tajima Mamoru looked at Gu Santong, who was approaching the military camp in the distance, and said, "Why didn't you stop him?"
"I said, whatever." The Earth Sect Taoist leader still sounded indifferent, neither happy nor sad.
"Damn! Idiot!" Yagyu Tajima Mamoru cursed and said, "Let's go too, change the plan, let this idiot attract firepower, and we will assassinate Zhu Youtang, whether he lives or lives."
"Okay." The Earth Sect Taoist leader nodded slightly and pulled Yagyu Taimamomo into the ground.
On the other side, Gu Santong sneaked into the camp with his strong skills and headed towards the Beida Camp.
Not long after, Gu Santong heard a voice.
"Everyone, thank you for your hard work coming from afar..."
