Zhao Ziye straightened his waist immediately, his face became solemn, and said: "Cang Chief Assistant, your consideration is reasonable. The seven coalition forces will indeed not retreat like this! Then you said that the seven coalition forces launched a general offensive, we have
What are the chances that it can be defended?"
Cang Hong smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid it's not even 20%!"
Zhao Ziye's face suddenly darkened, there was a trace of despair deep in his eyes, and his tone of voice was raised a lot, and he said: "Isn't it inevitable that we will lose?"
Cang Hong said deeply: "I have discussed with Mu Feng. He actually has a way to disrupt the seven coalition forces, and I will try my best to defend the Holy City! Therefore, I hope that Your Majesty will hand over all the military power of the entire Sacred City to me!
"
Zhao Ziye narrowed his eyes and looked deeply at Cang Hongshen, but said nothing.
Although during this period, the defenders of the sacred city were all dispatched by Cang Hongshen, in fact, only part of the military power was controlled by Cang Hongshen.
As for the three most powerful Forbidden Army teams in the Sacred City, they are firmly in the hands of Zhao Ziye.
These three forbidden troops are Zhao Ziye's most important forces. He does not trust them in the hands of others, but this also causes Cang Hongshen to be somewhat inefficient when dispatching his troops.
Because when dispatching the three forbidden armies, he had to ask Zhao Ziye for instructions. Only with Zhao Ziye's consent could the three forbidden armies be dispatched.
As the saying goes, soldiers need to be quick, and the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. You have to ask Zhao Ziye for instructions when making arrangements, which can easily delay the opportunity for combat.
Previously, the seven coalition forces did not launch a general offensive, but only adopted the tactics of dragging the opponent, so Cang Hongshen did not make this request.
But now, the matter is urgent, and Cang Hongshen has to mention it. Only in this way can he be more sure.
"Your Majesty! Now it's a life-or-death moment, don't hesitate any longer!" Cang Hongshen advised again.
Zhao Ziye frowned, waved his hands and said: "This matter is too important, let me think about it carefully, Chief Minister Cang, please step aside first!"< br>
Cang Hongshen's face darkened, but he didn't say anything anymore, and instead backed away.
"Eunuch Li! Do you think Cang Hongshen can be trusted?" Zhao Ziye slowly spoke after Cang Hongshen completely left the palace.
In the shadow of the palace, Eunuch Li slowly walked out, knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty! I am just a eunuch, and I dare not talk about state affairs! But if you talk about it from your Majesty's perspective, I think the three forbidden armies are
Your Majesty's military power is yours, and it is also a symbol of the emperor. If you hand it over without authorization, will your majesty still be the emperor?"
Zhao Ziye's eyes flashed and he said: "What a word to wake up the dreamer. Eunuch Li, you are right! But if these seven coalition forces really launch a general attack, can our sacred city really be able to defend it?"
Eunuch Li was as silent as a cicada, but did not answer.
He would not dare to interfere casually in such important matters concerning the country.
"Hey! It seems that we still need to be prepared! You pass my secret order and secretly summon Kou Si to my bedroom. Remember not to let anyone know! If it is leaked, I will ask you!" Zhao Ziye said indifferently.
Eunuch Li was trembling as he knelt on the ground and said quickly: "As you command!"
…
Cang Hong frowned deeply and returned to the cabinet.
Qi Yan, Xiang Rui and five other bachelors, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly greeted them. Among them, Qi Yan quickly asked: "Master Chief Assistant, what did your Majesty say?"
Cang Hongshen said helplessly: "His Majesty is very happy to hear the news and is willing to support me in defending the city for the next seven days, but he is unwilling to hand over the military power of the three forbidden armies! This will give the next defense to the city
Bring huge changes!”
Qi Yan's face darkened and he said:
"Why is Your Majesty still so ignorant of the general situation? What time has it been now, why do you still firmly hold the military power of the three Forbidden Army! Anyone with a discerning eye should be able to see that the chief assistant is like a god with his troops, and the three Forbidden Army are among the elite.
If the elites are directly controlled by the Chief Assistant, it will be even more powerful and increase the chance of winning."
Four great bachelors, Pu Shi, Zhong Wei, Yu Luan and Xiang Rui, were also very dissatisfied with Zhao Ziye's approach.
Even though the generals were gone, Zhao Ziye still cared about the military power in his hands and was still guarding Cang Hongshen.
If Cang Hongshen really had evil thoughts, he would not have worked so hard for so many years, let alone stayed to fight against the seven coalition forces.
Cang Hongshen waved his hand to calm down Qi Yan and others, and then said: "Since Your Majesty is unwilling, then as ministers we cannot force Your Majesty. This is treason!"
"Master Chief Assistant, what are you going to do?" Qi Yan asked.
Cang Hong said deeply: "Be prepared and fight hard. As long as we hold on for seven days, we will win! And believe in Mu Feng, he has never let me down!" .??.
Qi Yan, Pu Shi and other five great scholars looked at each other without saying anything. They also knew that there was no other way now.
…
Late at night, Lingcheng.
The huge city was heavily guarded, but no one noticed that an inconspicuous speck of dust quietly landed at the main entrance of the mausoleum city.
The entire mausoleum city is shrouded in a tight defensive formation. On each lookout tower, there are heavy patrols. On the wall passages between the lookout towers, there are soldiers with straight waists.
.
That inconspicuous speck of dust was waiting silently at the city gate.
When a caravan came out of the city, there was a gap in the formation, where dust quietly slipped into the mausoleum.
The northwest area of Lingcheng has a very dense tile-roofed house. The people living there are soldiers of the seven coalition armies, and it is also the garrison of the seven coalition armies.
The security here is even tighter, patrol teams are constantly coming and going, while some soldiers are sleeping and resting, recuperating and waiting for the shift.
At a remote corner, a soldier hurriedly entered the toilet to relieve himself.
However, as soon as he entered the toilet, he found a golden vortex in front of him, about the size of his thumb.
He stretched out his finger and poked it curiously, and then his whole body was sucked in, and he didn't even have time to scream.
After a while, a figure reappeared in the golden vortex. He looked exactly like the soldier just now and was dressed exactly the same.
But deep in his eyes, there was a different look.
He is none other than Mu Feng.
He plans to sneak into the Seven Alliance Armies and then spread the curse.
Of course, he did not intend for this curse to take effect immediately, but to wait until the critical moment to take effect in order to achieve an unexpected effect.
After all, there are too many armies of the seven major coalitions. If it takes effect immediately, wouldn't it be a warning?
"Liu Hu, why are you so slow to go to the toilet! I can't hold it in anymore, come and take my place!"
When Mu Feng came to an open space, he found a patrol team waiting there. A short and fat soldier quickly stepped forward, handed the spear in his hand to Mu Feng, and then left the place in a hurry.
Mu Feng silently looked at the pudgy soldier who was leaving. Invisible ripples silently emitted from his hand and attached to the pudgy soldier.
In addition, this invisible ripple is still spreading, and the entire patrol team of more than ten people is covered by it.
The soldiers in the patrol team were unaware of it and still stood there silently waiting.
