The decree was quickly drawn up. The emperor read it twice and asked for the jade seal to be stamped. After inspection by the three ministers of Zhongshu Province, Shangshu Province and Menxia Province, they also stamped the seals of each province.
All three provinces passed it, which shows that this imperial edict is unquestionable and must be implemented immediately.
Zhao Shuo and Chang Mansha took ten monks from the Royal Cultivation Academy and an old man in their 60s, and immediately flew to Yingzui Cliff three hundred miles away to read the imperial edict. On the wall of Yingzui Cliff, Yang Zhentian was still talking to Yang Quanyong.
, suddenly saw a group of people flying from the north. The leader was the old man, His Majesty's most trusted eunuch, Master Shunde. Behind them, Zhao Shuo and Chang Mansha each held a black royal power.
Hold the stick.
Yang Zhentian knew at a glance that he was here to deliver an edict, and even the royal staff was used. It seemed that it must not be an ordinary edict, and it was probably related to the current war.
He said: "Fourth brother, it seems that something big has happened. My brother will leave first. When this battle is over, I will never come back until you are drunk."
Seeing Yang Zhentian about to leave, Yang Quanyong said: "Brother... the battlefield is dangerous, you have to be careful." Yang Zhentian laughed loudly, full of heroism, and said: "Your brother and I have defended the most difficult Wangful Ridge, and you are still afraid.
What? Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, so why return them wrapped in horse leather? I have already told my subordinates that I will be buried wherever I die in battle.
inside."
Yang Zhentian reunited with his younger brother and his family outside the cave, but the old commander Zhao Xianfeng suffered a lot. Without Yang Zhentian, a die-hard member of the main war faction, Zhao Xianfeng was helpless. The old commander's eyebrows were all white, and his hoarse voice
Said: "I am thirty-three this year, and I still wear armor and fight for the country. My children are all serving in the army. The dog Zhao Zian leads three million cavalry to deal with the Storm Legion day and night, just to entangle the Storm Legion and avoid them.
They retreated into the Hundred Thousand Mountains in southern Xinjiang. Now that the Gate of Catastrophe has been closed, the enemy forces in the heavens should also have received the news. They will retreat into the mountains and forests at any time. After a few years, countless reinforcements from the heavens will gather in the lower realms.
, let alone Eagle Beak Cliff, the entire Central-Turkish defense line is in danger of collapse. In this critical period, you generals are still afraid to fight..." Zhao Shiqu said: "Shuai Zhao, I am not the king.
If we are afraid of fighting, we will look for this battle plan instead. Not only will tens of millions of our soldiers die, but the Eagle Beak Cliff is also in danger of being lost. Unless His Majesty delivers an imperial edict, I will never agree to implement it.
carry out this battle plan."
At this moment, a high-pitched voice came from the corridor outside the cave.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
When you hear this voice, you don't think it comes from a normal man.
Sure enough, a very old man stepped in, holding up the yellow scroll of alchemy in his hand.
The cave is very large, and there are hundreds of leading generals gathered there, as well as many staff.
At this moment, everyone stood up and knelt on the ground.
Zhao Shiqu straightened his clothes and armor, and knelt at the front with Zhao Xianfeng.
Zhao Shiqu said: "Eunuch Shunde, why are you here in person?"
Shunde is His Majesty's confidant, and he is rarely used to deliver edicts. The last time he was used to deliver edicts was at a large court meeting, where he announced the important news that the emperor was personally conducting an expedition and that the prince was supervising the country.
Eunuch Shunde looked around and said in a sharp voice: "Why don't you see Yang Shuai?"
Just at this time, Yang Zhentian came back from outside and said: "This commander is here."
Eunuch Shunde nodded and said: "Since everyone has arrived, Sajia will read out His Majesty's decree."
He slowly opened the yellow scroll of the alchemy book and said: "It is the destiny of heaven. The emperor has issued an edict. Heroes in the world fight bloody battles with heaven and close the door of heaven and man. This is a grand event in the world, and it is also a turning point in the catastrophe..."
No matter what the imperial edict is, the preceding ones are basically all nonsense praising virtues. This imperial edict will probably be kept in the Jade Slip Cave forever, so there will be even more nonsense.
First, he praised the counterattack against Heaven, and then told about the cavalry battle between Yingzui Cliff and the Southern Xinjiang Wasteland. He even mentioned several ambush battles in Southern Xinjiang and the battle at Qixing Mountain.
After a thousand or so words, I got to the main topic.
"The order is to order Zhao Shiqu, the general manager of the march in Jiannan Road, to be the commander of the Yingzui Cliff War, commanding 25 million troops from all walks of life, Zhao Xianfeng to be the cavalry commander, commanding 12 million human cavalry in the wasteland, Yang Zhentian and Zhao Zian
For the vanguard..." After reading out dozens of personnel appointments, he finally said: "The battle situation is unpredictable, and you generals must adapt to the situation and formulate detailed strategies. In addition to ensuring that the defense line of Yingzui Cliff is safe, you must do
Defeated the main force of the six legions in one fell swoop. Billions of people in the world
The lives of thousands of people depend on this battle. I and the people are waiting for the victory of the generals..."
Yang Zhentian was so excited that he jumped up. He really didn't expect His Majesty the Emperor to agree to this battle.
He knelt on one knee and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, even if the general is shattered to pieces, he will definitely slaughter all the invading enemies!"
Since His Majesty personally issued the imperial edict, the conservative generals no longer dared to dissent and shouted: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, even if the general is shattered to pieces, he will definitely slaughter all the invading enemies!"
After Zhao Shiqu received the imperial edict, he read it carefully. Yes, it was not fake. The jade seal and the seal of Sangong were both genuine.
He said: "Thank you, father-in-law."
Eunuch Shunde smiled and said: "This battle is of great importance. Your Majesty and the Queen are at Laojun Mountain three hundred miles away, and Yingzui Cliff will be handed over to the chief steward."
Zhao Shiqu nodded and said: "Please, father-in-law, please tell your majesty when he returns home. I will live and die with Yingzui Cliff together with all the armored soldiers."
Shunde Gonggong said: "That's good. There are still a few decrees to be conveyed. The Sa family won't stay here any longer. The war will take care of all the generals."
After seeing off the messenger, a group of people sat down again. This time Zhao Shiqu said simply: "Since His Majesty has issued the edict, we, as ministers, must complete it without hesitation. Now let's discuss the details.
Let’s look at the details of the battle." Zhao Xianfeng walked to the map and said: "I will immediately order the wilderness cavalry to the north. Within three days, they will reach the outside of Yingzui Cliff and attack the more than three million six-strong army on the outside of Yingzui Cliff.
Legion, in an encirclement situation, the main force of the Storm Legion is rushing back and forth in the south,
We must rush for reinforcements. The main target of our cavalry is the Storm Legion. According to the results of discussions with Yang Shuai, the cavalry can only mobilize about four million at most to participate in the direct battle at Eagle Beak Cliff. The main force can only return to reinforcements after destroying the Storm Legion."
Zhao Shiqu nodded and said: "Four million is enough. Yang Shuai, you want to fight for this, the infantry vanguard general, please tell me." Yang Zhentian stood up, held a slender stick, pointed at the sand table in front of him, and said: "
After the cavalry encircled the main force of the six legions in the south, I led the eight million Yingzui Cliff soldiers to charge directly and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the six legions in the wilderness. Then I pretended to retreat. As long as the enemy pursued and entered the Yingzui Cliff defense line, this
The plan is more than half successful. Now I only worry about one thing..."
