Quick Wear: The Demon Lord blew up the tomb at the beginning
Chapter 38 I am the King of a Country (1)
The odds are on me!!
These four simple words seemed to contain tremendous power, enough to make everyone present excited.
And I believe that the final victory will belong to Dayan.
Some of the officials present were civil servants who did not understand military matters and only knew that they had won.
The few people who were left in Huaguang Hall by Xie Lang at the beginning now looked at Xie Lang as if they were looking at a god.
They knew that the person who led all these victories was Xie Lang.
If she had not predicted what was happening on the border and issued orders in time, there would be no victory today.
Xie Lang ignored the gazes of the ministers and continued, "Zhang Hu, the defender of Humen Pass, unfortunately died in battle. He was promoted to the rank of General Zhuangwu, and Viscount Cheng..."
Meritorious officials were rewarded according to their merits, and the families of the victims were comforted by providing them with monetary compensation and preferential treatment.
After this emergency meeting, Xie Lang left Wei Renda alone.
Wei Renda was the Minister of Personnel, and he was not surprised that he was kept.
He was looking at Xie Lang with a serious expression at this moment. He had been observing Xie Lang's actions over the past few days.
As long as she wants to do something, there is nothing she cannot achieve, and no one can stop her.
And carefully analyze every order she gives.
Finally, she came to a surprising conclusion: her decision was correct. Even though there were disadvantages, it was the best solution so far.
How can this be?
As long as we are human, we will make mistakes.
But Xie Lang seemed to never make mistakes, and every decision he made was just right.
In addition to these, what is even more shocking is that there are already many discussions about a princess regent, and some people only obey on the surface.
But over the past few days, everyone started to act according to Xie Lang's orders. As long as it was her order, they would execute it without any questioning.
Especially the few people that Xie Lang left in Huaguang Palace. He didn't know what Xie Lang had said to them. They were all military generals. Even His Majesty could not make them obey completely. However, they followed Xie Lang's orders unconditionally.
No matter how outrageous the orders she gave were.
This is a very scary thing.
Thinking of this, Wei Renda broke out in a cold sweat as he looked at Xie Lang who was sitting in the upper seat and calmly flipping through a booklet.
She...she couldn't be wanting that position!
"Princess, you asked me to stay here alone because..."
Xie Lang closed the book in his hand, looked at him calmly, and said, "Minister Wei must have guessed it."
Wei Renda was frightened. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked when he heard Xie Lang admit it himself.
I was shocked again.
"Let me ask you, if our soldiers of Great Yan sacrificed their blood and lives to protect Great Yan, and Your Majesty shouted at the gate of Shuoyang City to open the gate quickly, what would you do?"
Xie Lang's calm words echoed throughout the hall. Wei Renda's body froze, and then his expression became very ugly. He replied, "Your Majesty, as the ruler of a country, would not do this."
Shuoyang City is so important. It is the last line of defense on the border. It is no exaggeration to say that if Shuoyang City is lost, Daliang will be halfway occupied.
As an emperor, Li Chongguang could not possibly not understand this truth.
At this time, Xie Lang just looked at Wei Renda calmly: "Do you believe what you said?"
Wei Renda's face changed slightly when he heard this. How could he not know what kind of person Li Chongguang is?
He treated military affairs as a joke and attacked Khitan not for the sake of Dayan, but purely to satisfy his own selfish desires.
He thought that as long as he won one game, he would be able to look down on Taizu's achievements in expanding territory and making his power known throughout the world.
But they don’t know that Emperor Taizu was able to do it because he had the strength and means, and he was far-sighted, which is why he was able to win every battle.
As for Li Chongguang, he knew nothing about military affairs and just gave orders blindly.
Half a month ago, they wanted to attack Khitan, and half a month later, 450,000 troops set out.
There was no food or supplies, no attack plan, and the border guards didn't even know about it until the 400,000-strong army arrived at the border.
You are playing with the lives of more than 400,000 soldiers!
Finally, he was captured in the enemy camp and became a laughing stock of the whole world.
Any king with a sense of honor would have committed suicide to thank the world the moment he was captured.
As for Li Chongguang, he continued to live with a thick face and it was said that he lived quite well in Khitan.
Thinking of this, Wei Renda had a hunch that if it were Li Chongguang, he would really be able to order someone to open the city gate at the foot of Shuoyang City.
"If Your Majesty really orders the gates of Shuoyang City to be opened, I will... choose a wise ruler to serve."
If Li Chongguang could still be saved, Wei Renda would not have said this.
But he was completely beyond help.
Xie Lang was not surprised to hear Wei Renda's answer, as if he had expected it.
He just smiled at Wei Renda and said, "Very good, congratulations, you made the wisest choice."
Wei Renda: “…”
It turned out that Xie Lang left him alone just for this answer.
…………
At the Khitan royal court, more than a hundred Khitan soldiers with broadswords on their waists were patrolling strictly outside the camp.
Inside the camp, Yelu Bei and several high-ranking Khitan officials gathered together. In front of each of them was a table with food on it.
Yelu Bei had a gloomy expression on his face. He said nothing and concentrated on gnawing on the roasted leg of lamb in his hand.
Seeing that Yelu Bei didn't speak, the others also remained silent. The atmosphere in the camp became very depressing for a while.
boom! ! !
"Then why would the Yan State ambush at Qiyan Mountain? Why would they ambush there?"
Yelu Bei slammed the roasted lamb leg in his hand onto the table with great force. Due to his great strength, the roasted lamb leg fell to the ground after hitting the table, and the wine and drinks on the table also fell to the ground, making a mess on the ground.
Everyone was frightened when they saw Yelu Bei suddenly get angry, and they didn't know how to start talking for a moment.
"We lost 30,000 Khitan warriors overnight. 30,000!!!" Yelu Bei raised three fingers, veins popping out on his face. He already looked ferocious, and now he looked even more terrifying.
Yelu Bei was so angry that he stood up and looked at the person sitting below.
"Grandmaster, you are a wise man of our Khitan. You have always been far-sighted and have led our Khitan to many victories. Tell me, what should we do next?"
The old man, whom Yelu Bei called Taishi, wore a Confucian robe with a woolen coat on the outside. There was a gleam of wisdom in his eyes and he looked very elegant.
Hearing Yelu Bei's words, he calmly stroked his goatee and said, "Great Khan, there is a saying in the Central Plains that if the ruler wants his subjects to die, the subjects must die. There is also a saying that the emperor can be used to control the princes. Now the emperor of Dayan is in my Khitan hands. As long as I use him well, I will be invincible."
"Master, continue."
"Why did the Khitan fight with Dayan? It was for resources! Our Khitan warriors are all brave and good at fighting, and they can fight against many enemies alone. However, it takes a lot of resources to support these warriors. Dayan has fertile lands for thousands of miles, countless resources, and the Guanzhong area is known as the land of abundance."
"However, they have so many resources, but they don't have strong power to defend them. This time they lost 450,000 troops all at once, which greatly reduced their national strength. This is a good opportunity for the Khitan to rule the Central Plains. Great Khan, do you know which pass is crucial to the south to the Central Plains?"
When the Grand Tutor was speaking about how his mouth was dry, he calmly picked up a glass of wine on the table and tasted it slowly.
Yelu Bei said: "You mean, Shuoyang City."
The Grand Master put down the wine and said, "Yes, Shuoyang City is the last line of defense of Dayan. As long as the gate of Shuoyang City is opened, our Khitan warriors can go straight into Daliang and seize the capital city of Daliang. What resources will we have by then? We can even rule the Central Plains and command the world."
Yelu Bei's eyes lit up, and then he sighed: "The Grand Master's idea is good, but Shuoyang City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we want to take Shuoyang City, our Khitan will lose a lot of warriors."
"No need to lose troops and generals. Don't we still have the Emperor of Great Yan?"
The Grand Tutor raised his index finger and shook it.
Yelu Bei was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily: "Excellent! Excellent! The Grand Master is worthy of being the Grand Master, he can even come up with such a brilliant plan."
"Hahahahaha..."
Everyone laughed, and the whole camp was filled with laughter.
