The atmosphere in the palace hall was depressing. According to their previous analysis, Xuanyuan Tianzong must have forced the conservative forces to rebel and then attack in the civil strife. They also prepared for the plan, but they never expected that five days passed and there was no movement in the Eight Kingdoms.
In the past few days, the news has affected the senior officials of the empire, and the emperor had to summon the ministers to explain the whole story.
When everyone heard the sinister plan of Xuanyuan Tianzong, they felt a chill on their backs. If they really succeeded, then the empire would be like now without thinking.
In order not to let the news leak, the emperor issued a ban order. Of course, the empire's senior officials understood the importance of this matter and immediately began to implement it. The emperor also ordered Xingchen and Han Shan to keep the tourists and bear the cost of the empire...
"What's going on? Have they already received news from Xingchen Leader and knew that we were setting up a suspicion array!" The marshal was in a heavy mood at this time. Although the military operation was short, he mobilized all the legions and even the Imperial Guards were dispatched. He spent a lot of manpower and material resources. He just arranged the money for tourists and went to old age. If he had a waste of fun, the money he lost would be in billions.
"Impossible!" The emperor waved his hand and said, "We have strictly ordered Han Shanling and Xingchenling to block the news to prevent tourists from leaving!"
An official below couldn't help but analyze: "Since it's not that the news is leaked, there is something wrong with Xuanyuan Tianzong!"
"There is this possibility!" The emperor nodded and asked loudly: "Is there no news from Xuanyuan Tianzong?"
A man in black ran in outside the hall, knelt on one knee, and reported loudly: "There is news coming, but there is no substantial content. It is said that everything in Xuanyuan Tian Sect is normal, and no abnormal movement is seen!"
"Everything is normal, how is it possible! Are our inner demons all waste?" The head of the Fang family snorted coldly. In this operation, their conservative forces were the most important, and they had the most resources to borrow. If there was no result, the losses would be the greatest.
The emperor glared at the head of the Fang family in displeasure and asked again: "Where are the eight kingdoms?"
"The same is true. As usual, they don't seem to know about this!" the man in black replied.
"Go down!" The emperor waved his hand and asked the man in black to retreat. He frowned and whispered: "What the hell is Xuanyuan Tianzong doing?"
With such a lot of strength, Xuanyuan Tianzong didn't make any noise and he didn't believe it if he killed him. Could it be that he took such a big risk just to go to Xingchen to lead the slaughter of tourists? Isn't this nonsense?
After a moment of silence, the emperor suddenly stood up and shouted: "Check, no matter what, you must find out the purpose of Xuanyuan Tianzong. Tell us who are arranging there, don't be afraid of exposure, use all means for me..."
"Report~" At this moment, a man in black gasped and ran in with Changyin.
"Emperor, news about the Yueying Kingdom. The 400,000 troops of Xuanyuan Tianzong suddenly launched an attack on them. Five heavy armored knights gathered together and had already taken seven cities in a row, approaching Yueying Capital.
"What?" The hall exclaimed, and the group of people were dizzy and were a little at a loss about the news. No one expected that Xuanyuan Tianzong would attack Yueying. Are they crazy? They actually attacked the neutral kingdom.
The Emperor and the Marshal felt even more incredible. They had slaughtered such a lot of strength just to attack Yueying. Why did Xuanyuan Tianzong do this? What are the benefits of attacking Yueying for them...
The emperor looked at the Marshal, and saw him frowning, and was thinking hard. Feng Xuanzhang and others, and even the senior officials of the imperial hall were the same... It was so incredible that no one could understand why Xuanyuan Tianzong attacked Yueying and threw all the ace troops into it, and even brought the newly formed Fifth Armor Knights. They did this, so they were not afraid of attacking from the Orc Alliance.
"When did it happen?" asked the Emperor.
"Two days ago, according to the current speed of advancement, they will face the Moon Shadow Capital in seven more days!"
"Send someone to Yueying immediately, continue to stare at me, and send back the war report at any time!" The emperor shouted.
The two men in black below responded quickly and bowed and left.
As soon as their front feet left the hall, another man in black ran in and loudly reported: "The Emperor, the envoy of the Orc Alliance is asking for a visit outside, saying that he is urgent!"
"Huh?" The emperor frowned. Xuanyuan Tianzong was acting strangely. The Orc Alliance was also joining in the fun at this time. Is this just a coincidence?
The Marshal, the Old Marquis and the others felt the same. The north was the coldest time of the year, and the road was blocked by the Blizzard. The Orc Alliance was coming at this time, and it was still urgent!
"Let him come in quickly!" The emperor immediately ordered... In a short while, an orc was taken in.
The moment I saw this man, the whole hall was stunned. Is this a messenger? Why is this like this?
No wonder everyone was like this. This man could hardly see the human appearance. His clothes were covered with mud and water, and he couldn't tell what fabric it was. His face was covered with mud and stains, and there were scratches and blood in the place. His hair was completely a bird's nest, messy and covered with mud.
If we hadn't reported it in advance, everyone would have thought that this man was a beggar, perhaps worse than a beggar.
After this man came in, he ignored the surprised gaze of others. He knelt down on the ground with a simple voice, held a piece of white silk in his hands and raised it over his head, and shouted: "The Golden Lion Clan Chief's handwritten letter, I'm so anxious, please send troops..."
After the messenger gasped, he fell to the ground and fell into a coma. He ran along the way, exhausted eight best war horses to arrive in five days, and the road was too difficult to walk. And he himself had no rest for five days and five nights, and he could no longer hold on at this time.
"Yeah!" No one cared about the messenger. This sentence made everyone present shrink their hearts. What happened to the Orc Alliance? How to get the Empire to send troops?...
The hall was in chaos. The Orc Alliance was an ally of the Empire and they jointly resisted the Xuanyuan Tianzong. No matter which side had a problem, it would be impossible for the other side to fight against the Xuanyuan Tianzong alone.
"Silent!" The emperor suddenly raised his hand and pressed down. The hall immediately calmed down.
Then, the emperor asked his subordinates to carry the envoy down to rest, took the white silk, watched with his eyes fixedly, and his face became a little gloomy.
The entire hall was silent, and everyone was watching the emperor and waiting for him to speak.
After a moment, the emperor raised his head and said in a deep voice: "The bear clan and the tiger clan have defected to the Xuanyuan Tianzong. They have become the barrier to the northern part of the Xuanyuan Tianzong. At this time, they are confronting the other four tribes led by the Golden Lion... Because the bear clan has 30% of the beast blood cavalry in the hands of the tiger clan, the Golden Lion is worried that they will join forces with the Heavy Armor Knights. They can't resist it, so they come to us for help..."
"The Bear Clan and Tiger Clan betrayed!" The people in the hall widened their eyes. The news was so shocking.
It took a long time for everyone to slowly accept this fact. The surprised expression turned into contemplation.
"I said why did Xuanyuan Tianzong transfer all the ace troops? It turned out that the bear tribe had blocked the other four tribes for them!" The marshal's face was as deep as water.
"What exactly do Xuanyuan Tianzong want to do?" Feng Xuanzhang was puzzled.
"It's really strange. If the bear tribe and tiger tribe surrender, if Xuanyuan Tianzong immediately attacks the other four tribes, it will definitely be a big victory! Even if we rescue, there is no problem for them to occupy half of the grassland... Why did they transfer the heavy armored knights to attack the Yueying Kingdom?" The old marquis pointed out the key to the matter in one sentence.
The emperor thought for a while and said, "They did this, which means that the focus of this plan is not on the Orc Alliance. Half of the interests of the grassland are far inferior to the benefits of this plan."
A flash of light flashed across the marshal's eyes, and a smile appeared on his gloomy face. He said, "I understand that their plan is really huge. Once they successfully attack the Star Leadership, the empire will inevitably have civil strife, the bear tribe reverses, and the orc alliance can't take care of themselves. The Moon Shadow Kingdom will definitely fall into their hands... The interests of the entire Moon Shadow Kingdom are really much larger than half an empty grassland!"
Finally, after understanding the plan of Xuanyuan Tianzong, the emperor also narrowed his eyes and smiled. The previous heavy weight was swept away, and said: "No matter whether Xuanyuan Tianzong is attracted by the wealth of the Yueying Kingdom, it is definitely right to stop them... Their plan is huge enough, but they must have never expected that Xingchenling could not succeed. This plan failed from the beginning."
After a moment of saliva, the emperor ordered: "Marson, you should immediately lead 30,000 imperial guards to the Yueying Capital. No matter what, you must protect the capital first!"
"Will you let the guards go?" the marshal frowned.
"We can only let the Imperial Guards go, only they are the fastest... What is worrying now is the combat effectiveness of the Moon Shadow Kingdom. They have not had any war for decades. If we can destroy others, it will be useless if we can't catch up..." said the emperor.
"Yes!" The marshal thought for a while and nodded in response.
"In addition, immediately notify Dingbei Hou that all the members of the Eighth Legion will be dispatched, and each other legion will mobilize 20,000 people, and a total of 300,000 people will be gathered to rush to Yueying... The other seven legions will be strictly guarded and continue to pay attention to the eight kingdoms!" The emperor continued.
Without hesitation, the marshal took the order and left quickly.
After the marshal left, the old marquis asked, "Emperor, how can I reply from the Orc Alliance?"
"They probably didn't know that all the Heavy Armor Knights were transferred, so they were so worried! I immediately sent someone to Xingchen Corps and asked Yufeng Wolf to help deliver the letter. The thing was fast, so that the Golden Lion could feel at ease!"
As soon as the Emperor finished speaking, the head of the Jin family bowed and said, "Emperor, let me do this?"
The emperor was of course happy with such a clear support from the centrists and agreed with a smile.
"In addition, I will notify Han Shanhou and Xingchenling immediately, and the news does not need to be blocked!"
"yes!"
After the ministers left one after another, the emperor walked out of the hall with his hands behind his back, looking southeast, and his eyes burst into light: "Xuanyuan Tianzong, thank you very much. If you don't play this trick, how could I subdue the centrist and conservative schools so easily... And this time, your wrong plan gave me a great opportunity, and I will definitely make you pay a huge price..."
The arrangements of the empire have been completed. When all parties are taking emergency actions, in the Dali Kingdom, Jiang Xingchen and the old man are solemn, and are accelerating to the Yueying Kingdom. Mei'er is still in the Yueying Capital. (To be continued...)
