After the thought flashed through his mind, Jiang Chen decided to take a gamble and stood up on duty, holding a fluorene board in his hand, and said: "Your Majesty, as Zhang Pushe said, the main force of our Xuanjia Army is still there, is it right?" Those who are afraid of a battle with the Jizhou Army, and I believe that we will be victorious in the end."
When he heard Jiang Chen saying the same thing, Zhang Zhen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, but Tang Qingchuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, frowned lightly.
Just such a small move was noticed by Jiang Chen who quietly raised his head. He had a feeling that he might have guessed right, so he immediately said: "It's just that the sage said that a gentleman should not stand on a dangerous wall." Your Majesty, so I think that just in case, we still need to make preparations. We can move the capital first, so that no matter what the war situation is, we will have room to retreat freely."
Move the capital!
Jiang Chen actually made such a suggestion. After hearing this, all the ministers below couldn't help but look embarrassed, and some of them had already begun to chatter about it.
When Emperor Qianwen was in charge of the overall situation, after King Zhong led an army to capture Pingcheng, some people suggested moving the capital, but Emperor Qianwen rejected it. This was because Emperor Qianwen had nowhere to move, and because once If the capital was moved, the impact on all aspects would be too great, and it would also be a heavy blow to the emperor's prestige.
Doesn't this indirectly indicate that the emperor is afraid?
Since the relocation of the capital was not allowed at that time, is it possible that Emperor Qian Ying would allow the relocation of the capital if he was also a powerful person?
The ministers could not guess what His Majesty was thinking at this moment. But moving the capital was a big deal after all, so some ministers stood up and asked: "Jiang Pushe, but I don't know where to move to?"
"Yuzhou. The first place to be governed is Xuzhou. The city walls there are tall and the city covers a vast area. It is really a good choice to accompany the capital. Bianzhou, which is not as good as Yuzhou, is also a good choice." Jiang Chen did not hesitate. Just saying this proved that his idea was not just a whim, but confirmed that he had really considered it.
Precisely because what Jiang Chen said was so specific, the original voice of discussion disappeared, and everyone became silent, as if they were all considering the feasibility of this matter.
Even Emperor Qianying, who was sitting on the throne, couldn't help but uttered the word "moving the capital", then he tilted his head, looked at the ministers and asked: "My beloved sir, do you have any other different opinions? ?”
Obviously, the word "different" proved that the emperor was not very satisfied with the two answers.
Thinking of this, the ministers looked at me, and I looked at you, and they didn't know what to say. Now there are those who are fighting, and there are also those who are avoiding war. If there are different opinions, aren't they just surrenderers? Does His Majesty want to surrender and make peace?
Just when everyone was thinking about it, Tong Gu, the Minister of Rites, stood up. This man who once led the peace-making faction felt that he finally had a place to use, "Your Majesty, I can talk to King Ji about my humble opinion." He, after all, we are all Dagan people, and His Majesty is the uncle of King Ji, so we can definitely end this war that should not have happened in the first place through peace talks. I am willing to recommend myself and go to the Jizhou camp to persuade King Ji to stop fighting. Let the world regain peace."
"Oh! It is a good thing to be able to stop the war, and it is also a blessing for the people of the world. Okay, I am sure. I have decreed to appoint Tong Gu as the ambassador of the peace talks. He will use my guard of honor when traveling, and he will be responsible for all matters of this peace talks." Qian Ying After hearing this, Di Wen's expression was indeed overjoyed, as if he was waiting for this result.
"I obey the decree." Tong Gu was very excited when he heard that he could travel with the emperor's guard of honor.
He has not carried out peace talks once or twice, but this is the first time that it has been of such a high standard?
Seeing that His Majesty was indeed preparing for peace talks, others were surprised. Is this still the warlike and loyal king in their eyes? Could it be that after becoming the emperor, he lost his blood?
Especially Zuo Pu shot Zhang Zhen. He thought he had figured out the emperor's pulse. Could it be that he was really wrong this time? He couldn't figure it out and said: "Your Majesty, just pointing to peace talks is not enough. What if? If King Ji refuses, then we have to make some preparations."
"Yes, what Zhang Pushe said is right. In this case, Zhang Pushe will do what you said before and mobilize all the troops to come to Daliang King Qin. If King Ji does not know what is good and what is good, then we will stay under Daliang City. Teach him a lesson. Oh, by the way, Jiang Aiqing, you must also be prepared for moving the capital. In this way, you can stay here later and I can listen to Aiqing explain your plans."
Emperor Qianying opened his mouth and actually adopted three opinions. At this moment, the ministers were a little confused and some did not understand the emperor's true intention.
The court meeting ended in a confused way. Jiang Chen was indeed retained, Zhang Zhen went to mobilize the king's troops, and Tong Gu began to prepare a group of affairs to leave the city for peace talks.
...
Great victory in Pingcheng.
Jizhou took advantage of the situation and headed south, but in fact the army was not moving very fast, it was just traveling at a speed of fifty miles a day.
Without it, it wasn't that Tang Ao didn't want to rush to Daliang City quickly, but the road was really difficult, the logistics and equipment couldn't keep up, and even the artillery of the firearms regiment was left behind by the army.
There is naturally no problem with using cavalry in field battles, but when it comes to siege battles, without artillery, the losses will be too great. There is no way, the army can only slow down its marching speed.
While waiting for the arrival of siege weapons and baggage, Tang Ao was also aware of the various reactions in Daliang City.
Tang Ao is not a Huns, and he will do anything to achieve his goals. Daliang is the imperial capital of Dagan, and he does not want to destroy it. If possible, he can save one more point, otherwise it will need to be rebuilt, that is Something that requires a lot of investment.
But in Daliang, Tang Ao was bound to win, not for anything else, but because Tang Ao needed a reputation, or a righteousness, an influence against all foreign races that they had to pay attention to.
Even the Japanese Japanese soldiers, like the Huns, learned to drive the local people to attack the city, so now all the people killed in the war in the south were Dagan people. This naturally made Tang Ao very angry, but although his Jizhou army Even if he is strong, it is impossible for him to jump across several states to fight his way to the south.
Besides, the current strength of the Jizhou Army is not enough to make enemies of all the foreign races, but Tang Ao still wants to rescue these Dagan people, so he can only occupy Daliang and ascend to the throne. At that time, he only needs to raise his arms and shout. , give a warning to all the aliens. In this way, the eyes of the aliens who invaded Daqian will be adjusted, and maybe there will be less killings in the south.
Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, this is the only thing Tang Ao can do at the moment. And it is still something that neither Emperor Qian Ying nor Emperor Qian Wen can do. Even so, let him do it.
This is the necessary significance of capturing Daliang City. Now Tang Ao pays special attention to every move in Daliang City.
The news spread quickly, and three sets of action plans regarding Emperor Qian Ying were placed in front of Tang Ao.
When these three main points of war, relocation and discussion appeared in front of Tang Ao, he burst into laughter.
You are not afraid of fighting him. As long as the Xuanjia Army does not come with all its troops, the Jizhou Army can completely wear down the opponent's strength bit by bit, eat it bit by bit, and eventually use it as a fueling tactic. Once Xuanjia Army is destroyed, The main force of the army is not afraid of not being able to capture Daliang City.
Tang Ao didn't object to the relocation. As long as it didn't interfere with his own affairs, Tang Ao didn't mind keeping them first, or he could deal with the aliens first and then deal with the Ying Emperor later.
As for talking about it, if it's Emperor Qian Ying's understanding of the situation, it's not impossible to achieve his own requirements. This is also the best way to do it without using weapons.
Especially after learning that the person who came for peace talks was Tong Gu, the Minister of Rites, Tang Ao smiled even more happily.
This person is also an old acquaintance. Tang Ao knew this person when he was still the Duke of Daliang City. And this person was involved in many things that happened afterwards. This was a person who dreamed of ruling the world with peace. .
Whenever there is war or danger, he will always stand up and promote temporary cooperation between the two parties through peace talks, and he has actually accomplished some things. The most powerful thing about Tong Gu is that he not only Thinking about your master, you will also think about the other party in the peace talks. Only in this way can you promote peace talks, right?
Tang Ao was very curious at this moment, what kind of sincerity would Tong Gu bring with him this time?
Tong Gu did not disappoint Tang Ao. Just five days later, he appeared in front of the Jizhou Army with Emperor Qian Ying's guard of honor. From a distance, the carriage pulled by six horses was even majestic. In addition, there were only The golden-armored warriors only used when the emperor was traveling were lined up to protect him. It looked like the golden light was shining so brightly that it could brighten a blind man's eyes.
"What a grand occasion. The emperor is driving six. This is a guard of honor that only the emperor has when traveling!" Feng Xun followed Tang Ao on horseback and said with emotion as he looked at the scene in front of him.
Tang Ao didn't speak, but he showed everything with his actions. With his legs lightly clamped, Stepping on the Snow Jade White Dragon turned around and walked towards the main tent of the camp behind him.
"Ah? Why did the king leave? Aren't you going to welcome the peace envoy?" Feng Xun asked with some confusion.
On the other hand, Shi Lei, the former guard captain of the Duke's Mansion, glared at his good brother and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty is busy with official business and has been waiting in the camp. Do you understand?"
"Ah? Oh, I understand, I understand." Feng Xun nodded quickly at this suggestion.
Think about it, it's the emperor's guard of honor who is here, so tell Tang Ao whether to go and greet him. If he does, what kind of etiquette should be performed? After all, Tang Ao has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, he is just a lucky king. If you fail to salute when you see the emperor, won't you be criticized by others for not observing etiquette?
