Hearing what Zhao Kang said, Zhou Yue's anxious heart finally relaxed and he returned to his former calmness and calmness.
Zhao Kang said calmly: "I want your country's Chen Bing to stay outside the Youzhou border for a while."
Zhou Yue was immediately startled: "Brother Zhao, aren't you kidding me?"
Once the army moves, it is no joke. Food, grass, supplies, ordnance, etc. must be kept up.
The Qi State has just suffered a disastrous defeat. It hasn't stopped for a long time and they are actually sending out troops again?
What's more, Qi State's hastily formed army can't fight a war! They are all new recruits.
Zhao Kang smiled and said: "Brother, don't panic. I'm just sending troops. I'm not asking you to attack Qian Kingdom."
"This... you have to tell me in detail. I cannot make the decision on such a big matter alone." Zhou Yue looked puzzled.
Since we are going to send troops but we are not going to fight, then why send troops?
Zhao Kang rolled his eyes, sighed and said helplessly: "Brother Zhou, do you still remember what you told me about the iron mine last time?"
"Remember, what happened?"
Zhao Kangdao: "After I left Qi State last time, I made another non-stop trip to Qian State. I hope that our Jing State can mine iron ore with Qian State. But those guys are too stingy and have nothing to say about Yunshan Iron Mine." Now it belongs to Qianguo’s own family.”
"You can't share it with us, Jingguo, and we won't agree to it even if you live or die!"
Seeing him looking a little angry, Zhou Yue echoed: "These guys are too unkind. Brother Zhao, you just helped them win the war. Don't you be ungrateful!"
"No! Brother Zhou, you are right. We think so too, but the mine belongs to someone else now and there is nothing we can do about it."
Having said this, Zhou Yue was not an idiot and naturally understood what Zhao Kang meant.
"I understand, brother, you want our Qi State to scare Qian State so as to facilitate this matter, right?"
Zhao Kang smiled: "Brother understands me, that's it. Qian Guo now thinks that he has nothing to worry about. After the war, we, Jing Guo, will no longer be needed. That will make them remember."
"It doesn't take much, as long as your country gathers 100,000 troops and goes to the border of Youzhou for a few rounds."
Zhao Kangdao: "If you scare them, they will know that they can still manage the country well now because we, Jingguo, are behind us. When the time comes, we will talk about the iron ore matter, and it will be settled soon."
Good boy, this heart is really dirty!
Zhou Yue nodded, sneered in his heart, and then showed a troubled look: "Brother Zhao, I want to help you, but sending troops once will cost too much."
"Hey, brother, what are you talking about? Brother, can I make your efforts go in vain?"
Zhao Kang pretended to be displeased: "What is our relationship? This matter is about to be completed. When the time comes, how to mine the mineral veins close to our two countries, and how much can be produced every year, is it not a matter of my words?" "
Zhou Yue's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Zhao Kang would regret it: "Then let's make an agreement, brother! Qi State has helped us with this!"
"Hey, I knew you were right to come to me if I had something to do, brother, come and go!"
"One step at a time."
After finishing the glass of wine, Zhou Yue hurriedly left the Jade Snow Tower and entered the palace to meet the Holy Spirit.
Zhao Kang was drinking wine alone, feeling quite emotional. This was probably because things in the world were impermanent.
Originally, I just wanted to live in Yuanjiang County and wait until death to become the Grand Master of Xiaoyao County.
Unexpectedly, he has begun to control the general trend of the world and stir up troubles.
Putting down the wine glass, he came to the window and watched the people coming and going on the street. Yuxue Tower had five floors, and his box was on the top floor.
Being condescending has a feeling of overlooking all living beings. From the time he left Yuanjiang County to become an official in the imperial capital until now, his mentality has already begun to change.
It was not until dusk and afternoon, when the sky gradually darkened, that Zhao Kang saw Zhou Yue, who had rushed from the palace.
Presumably, the result was obtained after a lot of war of words.
"Looking at my brother, it should be done?" Zhao Kang said with a smile.
Zhou Yue chuckled and cupped his hands and said: "As expected, Your Majesty has issued an order to mobilize the troops. The army will gather tomorrow and set off from Yanzhou in three days. The whole army will march quickly. It will take at most half a month for the leading troops to arrive outside the Youzhou Pass of Qian Kingdom. "
"Thank you, brother." Zhao Kang clasped his fists.
Zhou Yue coughed and said, "Brother, what we said must be counted!"
"Brother, don't worry. I swear on my name, Zhao Long, that the iron ore mined will definitely be sold to your country at the lowest price when things are settled."
The lies came out of his mouth, and Zhao Kang had no psychological burden.
The oath Zhao Long swore has nothing to do with me, Zhao Kang?
"That's good, that's good. Let's go, let's go. It's a rare visit. Brother, I'll take you to have a good tour of our Shengjing City. You were in too much of a hurry last time."
The deal was concluded and Zhou Yue was in a happy mood.
Zhao Kang quickly refused: "I appreciate my brother's kindness, but I have to rush back to Jingguo to resume my life. I have to leave early tomorrow morning, so let's forget it this time."
"When I come back next time, I will definitely have a few more drinks with my brother."
Seeing this, Zhou Yue no longer tried to force him to stay: "In that case, I won't delay my brother. You are welcome to come again at any time."
The two of them separated from Zhao Kang and stayed one night at the nearby Yuxue Tower. As soon as the city gate opened the next day, they immediately rode back to Jingguo.
On his way back to Jingguo, the assembled army of Qi State set out. By the time he returned to Huajing City, the movements of Qi State's army had also been exposed.
Qianguo.
The urgent letter, which traveled eight hundred miles, was sent back to the imperial capital.
Empress Xiao Linglong clenched her fists slightly after reading the secret letter.
"What did your Majesty say in your letter?" Li Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, saw the slight change in His Majesty's expression and hurriedly asked.
Xiao Linglong said calmly: "Qi State is sending troops, and the vanguard army will arrive outside Youzhou Pass."
Upon hearing this, the officials' expressions instantly changed.
"Why did Qi State send troops again!"
"Are we still going to fight?"
"Damn it, how many soldiers and horses are there! We don't have many troops now!"
People were panicked, and the news that Qi State was sending troops instantly turned into a haze that shrouded most people's minds.
And Xiao Feiyu, who was also in the main hall, was really horrified. He didn't expect it to happen so quickly!
Is this Zhao Long really capable of reaching heaven?
"Quiet!" the new head eunuch shouted coldly.
At this time, Zhao Jinsheng came out quickly: "Your Majesty, the top priority is to ask Jingguo for help. Now that Jingguo has strong soldiers and horses, only they can help our country block Qi."
"yes!"
"We still have our ally Jing Guo. Now Jing Guo has the largest and strongest military force. With them here, Qi State, which is at the end of its war effort, cannot touch us."
Everyone was talking, Xiao Linglong glanced at Xiao Feiyu who was silent.
"Then follow what Mr. Zhao said and ask Jingguo for help."
