What are the consequences of a pincer attack between the two?
Everyone knows very well that blessings and misfortunes never come alone, but it happens in this troubled autumn.
Powerful enemies often take a look at Jingyang.
When they saw these two letters, everyone's breath paused for a moment.
The prince opened his mouth and said in a dry voice: "Go and find the Marquis of Zhenguo. Now, we can only ask him to come over and discuss it together."
Hearing this, Henghou said nothing.
Just now, he hoped that Zhao Xiaole's rights could be restricted in the future, but at this moment, he hoped that Zhao Xiaole's rights would be even greater.
Big enough to solve all problems.
Not long after, Zhao Xiaole rode a fast horse to the East Palace. Li Lin, the Minister of the Ministry of War, Liang Dajiang, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Heng Hou, and Qin Sining were all here.
Everyone and the Crown Prince looked at him with awe after he came in. Zhao Xiaole couldn't help being stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"Your expression is so solemn?"
He suddenly thought of a possibility, "Could Chuzhou have been destroyed?"
The prince shook his head and gave him the two letters, "The matter may be more serious than this, take a look!"
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaole stepped forward and took the letters. After reading them, he breathed a sigh of relief, "So that's it, things are not that bad!"
After hearing this, everyone shook their heads secretly.
What's not so bad?
It's obviously already terrible, okay?
Now that you are surrounded by powerful enemies and you are carrying out a purge in the capital, shouldn’t this country be doomed?
Liang Dajiang groaned and said, "Your Highness, for this purpose, should Lu Qingbai be released?"
The prince asked Zhao Xiaole, "Xiaole, what do you think?"
Zhao Xiaole shook his head and said: "I have said before, King Pingxi is simply malingering, and there is no point in Lu Qingbai going back."
"We can let this matter go for now. The problem now is still in Chuzhou. I'm afraid the imperial court won't be able to send reinforcements anymore."
This statement made everyone stunned again, and Heng Hou looked even more angry, "Zhen Guo Hou, is it possible that you want the people of Chuzhou to fight? You know, Chuzhou has not recovered from the trauma of the previous battle.
"
"Crops can grow, but broken hands cannot grow back. How do you ask them to beat them?"
Zhao Xiaole looked at him and said with stern eyes: "I will send all the musketeers and artillery to you. Just hold Chuzhou for me. I don't need you to repel the Yan soldiers. Can you do it?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Henghou even held back all his words.
Musketeers and artillery?
What the hell?
Transfer all these to me?
During this time, he had long heard of the reputation of the Musketeers, as well as the power of those artillery pieces.
If we have the help of these things and use them properly, I'm afraid they can even be worth ten thousand troops!
But, is Zhao Xiaole willing to give these things to him?
That is Zhao Xiaole’s biggest support!
For a moment, Heng Hou couldn't believe that Zhao Xiaole would say such words. After meeting Zhao Xiaole's burning gaze, he took the initiative to look away.
"Even so, the war in Chuzhou can be saved, but what about the north and the south? These few wars are enough to bring the country down!" Henghou said with a sigh.
Now, the grudge against Zhao Xiaole in his heart is indeed reduced.
However, this can only solve Chuzhou's problem. The Beihai Chamber of Commerce and the southern barbarians are also forces that cannot be ignored.
Especially the Beihai Chamber of Commerce, they also used things similar to artillery. Under the cover of these things, they could land at any port. It was already troublesome for King Zhenbei to just deal with these people.
How can we still help the imperial court resist the East Vietnamese?
And what about the King of Minnan?
Who doesn't know that he is an old and timid coward. The former Nanbarians were uncivilized, but he could barely resist.
Now, with the increasing exchanges between Nanman and China.
After gradually becoming civilized, the national power also became stronger and stronger.
In recent years, the southern barbarians have frequently provoked provocations on the border. The king of southern Fujian did not dare to attack because he was afraid that the southern Fujian army had not fought for many years.
If he is defeated and the barbarians learn about his true and falsehood, it will only make the barbarians more arrogant.
Therefore, he has always focused on comfort.
But in this way, will the problem be solved?
Although the King of Minnan said that the barbarians only massacred a few border towns, everyone in the palace was not stupid.
Based on the King of Minnan's behavior, I'm afraid the actual situation is much more serious.
This also made everyone secretly angry.
You old thing, if you don't fight sooner, you won't fight later.
Why do we have to fight at this time?
Doesn't this add fuel to the fire?
Zhao Xiaole saw the low spirits of everyone and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. Although the Beihai Chamber of Commerce is looting everywhere, their advantage is that they are at sea. Even if they land, they will not go too far into the land."
"Therefore, the focus of our defense is still on the East Vietnamese. We can reply to the King of Zhenbei and ask him to be careful about the East Vietnamese. If Beihai merchants plunder or provoke, we should give priority to protecting the people."
"As for the southern Fujian side, I just have to go there myself."
Zhao Xiaole's analysis was well-founded. When he heard the first part, everyone nodded frequently. When they heard the last part, they all looked at him with puzzled faces.
The prince sighed and said: "Xiao Le, don't make fun of me. The capital cannot do without you now. Even if you go to southern Fujian, the imperial court will not send you any soldiers. What's the point of going by yourself?"
"I approve the two previous plans very much. As for southern Fujian, if it doesn't work, let's try to negotiate a peace!"
Heng Hou also nodded, "Yes, if the Marquis does not stay in the capital, no one can stop the third prince's remnants and the empress if they plot something evil. Besides, there is no point in going to southern Fujian alone."
"I will end the war in Chuzhou as soon as possible. I think that in southern Fujian, we should focus on peace negotiations first!"
Before, he wanted Zhao Xiaole to leave the capital as soon as possible, but now, he was only afraid that Zhao Xiaole would leave the capital.
Why?
Zhao Xiaole has handed over the Musketeers, so he is no longer a powerful minister. If he is not a powerful minister, what is that?
Of course it is the Marquis of Zhenguo. If the Marquis of Zhenguo leaves the capital, will the country still be in chaos?
Moreover, with Henghou having Zhao Xiaole's Musketeers at his disposal, he doesn't have to worry about logistical supply issues.
Zhao Xiaole snorted and said: "As for the war in southern Fujian, maybe we can try to negotiate a peace. In fact, you yourself know that you are just lying to yourself. Even if you take a step back, we are willing to negotiate a peace."
"However, if you don't have enough strength to resist the barbarians, the other party will break the promise at any time."
This kind of thing has happened frequently.
Didn’t the Demon Sect simply believe in the promise of the Three Kingdoms and was destroyed?
After Zhao Xiaole said these words, everyone was speechless.
However, if Zhao Xiaole went south alone, could he really stop hundreds of thousands of barbarians? Everyone was unsure.
