Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 115
The capital of the gods, the Chu Palace.

After Chiba Pass fell, Sun Zhaolin, the prefect of Zhaoyao, immediately notified his master of the situation of the battle, the fifth prince who was far away in Shendu, and asked the fifth prince to make up his mind.

Is it a war, or take the opportunity to set a trap for the Qingqiu Mansion.

After reading the letter, the fifth prince Gan Ke looked very excited, and swept away the previous decline, "Okay, very good, now I can finally vent my anger, let's see how he keeps jumping around."

Ever since Feng Quji's case was reversed, the fifth prince Ganke has had a hard time these days.By the way, the mother concubine Xiao Shufei called him to the palace for interrogation every three days, feeling like sitting on pins and needles.

By the way, I have to bother to appease the southerners.

The impact of Feng Quji's case was too bad, and it greatly weakened the prestige of the fifth prince in the three southern counties. Even a small family like the Zhao family in Qingqiu Mansion dared not show embarrassment to the fifth prince.

Abominable.

If it weren't for the interests that had been tied together at that time, I'm afraid everything would have capsized.

What was even more detestable was that someone reported to the Fifth Prince that Li Wei, the magistrate of Yingshui County in Qingqiu Prefecture, was secretly investigating the former county magistrate to see if there was any malfeasance and corruption.

Once confirmed, the former county magistrate will be held accountable.

Isn't this obviously slapping the Fifth Prince in the face?
It made the officials in the southern border panic, and the three county magistrates played frequently, which was very annoying.

The fifth prince was so devastated that he hated Qian Yuan in his heart long ago. Now, he finally waited for the opportunity, gritted his teeth and said, "Fifteenth brother, fifteenth brother, this calamity depends on how you get through it."

Dai Jin tentatively asked: "Your Highness, do you want the Second Division to stand still?" You could tell from the tone of his voice that Dai Jin didn't agree with such an approach, and was even a little dissatisfied with Sun Zhaolin, the ostentatious prefect who proposed this matter.

Isn't this pushing His Highness into the fire pit? !

"Otherwise?" The Fifth Prince's eyes darkened.

"Shendu has been spreading a rumor for the past few days. I wonder if Your Highness has heard of it?" Dai Jin tried his best to choose his words carefully, and he really knew that his master had been upset recently and had a bad temper, so he had to be careful in serving him.

"What rumor?"

The fifth prince was baffled. He was punished to contemplate behind closed doors in the palace, but he had never heard any rumors.

"There are rumors that the Qingqiu Kingdom invaded this time, and the Zhennan Pass was held for nearly a week, but it was unscathed; the Red Viper Pass was breached by the demon army in less than a day. Comparing the two, it can be seen that the Second Division is useless. It would be better if the King of Qingqiu County also manages the Yiyi Mansion and leads the war against Qingqiu Kingdom, so as to ensure the stability of the southwest of the empire." Dai Jin said.

"Fart! Fart!"

The fifth prince didn't pay attention to his image at all, and his words were dirty, so he didn't care about the prince's self-cultivation, "Which bastard passed this on? It's just nonsense."

"I don't know who spread it, but there is a market for this rumor." Dai Jin suspected that there might be a force behind the rumor that spread so quickly.

Maybe it's the Ninth Prince.

The fifth prince's face was gloomy, and he said in a strange way: "Hey, I'm in charge of the two mansions, and I'm not afraid that my appetite will burst." He said, looking at Dai Jin with burning eyes, "If you let the leopard demon army go south, the fifteenth brother Can you stop it?"

"Hard to say."

When it comes to major events, Dai Jin dare not promise.

"Even you are optimistic about him?" The fifth prince was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

Dai Jin explained: "Your Highness, I don't want others to be ambitious. Just think about it. In the spring campaign, Yize County defeated the Tiger Demon Army with only two battalions. Now, the Qingqiu Security Division has three regular There are seventeen battalions in the brigade, and I heard that two new battalions have been reorganized recently because of the suppression of bandits, and the total strength is more than eight times that of the spring."

As the saying goes, the name of a person is the shadow of a tree.

In the spring campaign, Yi Zejun's performance was miraculous, and he became famous in the first battle.

"That's because he was lucky. This time the demon army came prepared, so how could the situation be the same." Although the fifth prince said so, he lacked confidence.

"That's right."

Dai Jin didn't argue with the Fifth Prince, "If the Leopard Demon Army goes south, Qingqiu Mansion will suffer a small defeat at most, and it will not shake its foundation. But if Qingqiu Mansion wins, wouldn't it be true that the rumors are true, Your Highness, have you thought about the consequences? "

The Fifth Prince was completely stunned.

Dai Jin took the opportunity to say: "According to the worst case scenario, if the fifteenth prince really takes advantage of the power of this battle to manage the Yiyi Mansion in one fell swoop and take charge of the military affairs in the southwestern part of the empire, where will the second division be located? If your majesty does it cheaply , put the entire Second Division under the command of the Fifteenth Prince, and the result..."

The fifth prince trembled in his heart, "Isn't it possible?"

Dai Jin said leisurely: "Nothing is impossible. If we really want to reach that point, some people in the court would like to see the Southern Legion cut off their own arm, Your Highness."

"..."

The fifth prince's face was cloudy and uncertain, walking up and down in the room.

The Fifth Prince was really unwilling to give up such a chance to attack Qian Yuan after all, but the consequences of Dai Jin's analysis were too heavy.

It's really hard to make up your mind.

Seeing him, Dai Jin persuaded: "Your Highness, hit the snake seven inches. If you are destined to fail to give your opponent a fatal blow, then you might as well bear it for now and wait for a better opportunity."

The fifth prince raised his head suddenly, and was finally persuaded by Dai Jin. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, you are right. I will do as you wish. I am tired. You can go down first." Saying that, he waved his hand wearily.

"As ordered!"

Dai Jinzhi resigned. The Fifth Prince was always very strong, so it was very uncomfortable to give up like this.

…………

On the sixth day of October, Yingshui County.

Putting down Li Bai's letter from the flying sword sent by the gods, Qian Yuan smiled at Guo Jia who was sitting opposite him: "Very good, the strategist's plan has worked."

After the dust settled, Qianyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Needless to say, Qian Yuan instructed Li Bai to spread the rumors, and at the same time specially entrusted the help of the Ninth Prince, so that in a very short period of time, it caused such a big storm in the capital of God.

Now that he has formed an alliance with the Ninth Prince, if he troubles the Ninth Prince occasionally, it will only deepen the relationship between the two, otherwise, it will appear too alienated.

Moreover, assisting Qian Yuan to win this battle is also beneficial to the Ninth Prince.

Guo Jia seemed to have expected this to happen a long time ago, and he didn't seem too surprised. No one in the palace could match Guo Jia in terms of people's hearts, control and use of the situation between the enemy and us.

Uncle Zhong's plan is just the right way.

The two were chatting, and the soldiers outside the door came to report: "His Royal Highness, Mr. Lu is asking to see you."

"Let him in."

Qian Yuan was about to adjust his battle plan to relieve the danger of Red Viper Pass, and Lu Bing came in time.

"See Your Highness!"

While talking, Lu Bing in black came in.

"Exemption."

Qian Yuan asked: "But is there any news about the enemy army?"

"Finally lived up to His Highness's entrustment. After these days of investigation, the whereabouts of the Demon Fox Army and the Demon Leopard Army have been confirmed." In order to obtain information, the black-clothed guard sacrificed five elite spies in one fell swoop.

"Tell me quickly."

Lu Bingdao: "Everything is normal for the Fox Demon Army. The whole army is stationed at Hulao Pass and its surrounding areas. The key is the Leopard Demon Army. Except for the [-] demon soldiers stationed in the three northern forts, the remaining [-] demon soldiers have been lurking in the barbarians. In a valley between Niuguan and Hulao Pass. There is the only way from Manniu Pass to Hulao Pass."

Qian Yuan and Guo Jia looked at each other, suddenly in their hearts.

In the end, Guo Jia had guessed it, and the enemy set up an ambush, just waiting for them to take the bait.The Chiba Pass is probably also a smoke bomb, trying to disperse the troops of the Qingqiu Guard Division.

Qian Yuan was not in a hurry to discuss with Guo Jia, but looked at Lu Bing, "Very good, this information is very valuable, and there will be a reward when the war is over."

This information is worth tens of thousands of gold, and no reward can be overestimated.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Lu Bing left a copy of the sorted information, and resigned following Zhiqu.

When Lu Bing left, Qian Yuan looked at Guo Jia again, "The demon army set up traps at the Red Viper Pass again, and set up an ambush in the middle of the road. What's their intention?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Qingqiu Kingdom should have the same idea as His Highness. They want to take revenge, but also don't want to lose too many troops and damage their vitality, so they use tricks again and again."

"How to say?"

"If the leopard demon army goes south from Red Viper Pass to harass the border of Nanguan County, and the fox demon army is raging at Zhennan Pass again, what will His Highness do?" Guo Jia asked Qian Yuan suddenly.

Qian Yuan was not stage-frightened, thought for a moment, and said: "In order not to spread the flames of war to the fiefdom, we can only send troops to the north, and at the same time repeat the old trick, sending a small group of troops to sneak into Qingqiu to harass."

Just after he finished speaking, Qianyuan had already reacted, "So, that ambush was prepared for this? If our army enters Qingqiu Kingdom, the other party can attack and eliminate it as soon as possible?"

"This is just one of them." Guo Jia analyzed, "I think the ambush soldiers of the demon army are still guarding against us jumping over the wall. After going around Yize pass, they attack Hulao pass back and forth."

If he really wants to do that, he will fall into the trap of the demon army and be ambushed by them.

Qianyuan's palms broke out in cold sweat. It has to be said that this wave of operations by the demon army was far beyond his expectations. They were meticulously planned and interlocking, and all aspects were considered.

They had completely different styles from the Tiger Demon Army that they fought against in the spring.

This is really like Hu Qiu's style.

I don't know how long Hu Qiu had been deducing for this battle.

Thinking about it this way, the information detected by the black guards is even more important. It is equivalent to switching the light and darkness of the enemy and us. Before, the demon army was in the dark, and our army was in the light. Now our army is in the dark, and the demon army is in the dark. In Ming.

The arrangement of the demon army is no longer a secret in Qianyuan's eyes, "In this case, how should we fight this battle next?"

"It's very simple, just follow the plan." Guo Jia has a plan.

　PS: After it is put on the shelves, there are still two updates normally, but we will try our best to increase the number of words per chapter to 3000, and the addition of rewards will be added slowly, above.
