The Ancient Moon Realm is still an agricultural society in the feudal dynasty, and there are not many entertainment projects. Therefore, although it is lively this year, it is not as interesting as the Blue Star or the Great Desolate Realm.
Although for the local residents of the Ancient Moon Realm, the New Year is a rare day of the year when they can relax, the lively atmosphere slowly cools down after the fifteenth day.
In fact, a few days ago, various places in Yanque Pass slowly resumed business. After the 15th, except for some lingering New Year atmosphere, almost everyone started working hard for the new year.
Zhao Quanyou left Yanque Pass under a pseudonym before he was fifteen years old.
Although Zhao Yue'er was reluctant to give up, she had experienced it once and was somewhat used to it again.
After returning to the General's Mansion, the instinct that had been suppressed for half a month broke out again. The General's Mansion, which had become deserted after the New Year, became lively again.
Wang Ruoqing went out from time to time or invited new sisters to the general's mansion, while Xizi once again put on men's clothes and returned to the think tank.
Di Xin's leisure days are almost over.
The so-called sending troops to the grassland after the beginning of spring does not mean the first day of the Lunar New Year, but waits until the ice and snow melts.
It is now the fifteenth day, and it will not be more than a month before the official dispatch of troops.
Di Xin's current personality is that his foundation has been completely destroyed and his cultivation has been lost, so he has no intention of personally conquering the grassland.
Moreover, a Turk who had no world leader and whose strength had been greatly reduced due to civil strife was no longer worthy of Emperor Xin's personal intervention.
However, the training plan of the Flying Wolf Army and the Flying Tiger Army was specified by him. This was also their first actual battle, and the new formations in the army were also used in a formal war in the Ancient Moon Realm.
In order to prevent accidents, Di Xin has been inspecting various military camps under the protection of Zeng Hongshen during this period and made some minor adjustments.
The storm is coming and the wind is filling the building.
Although the government said nothing, the frequent mobilization of the army also made the people aware of something.
The atmosphere in Yanque Pass gradually became solemn.
…
Half a month later.
The spies reported back that the ice and snow in the grassland had basically melted, but there were many muddy areas, so it was not yet time to send troops.
The headquarters of the capital, the meeting hall.
Although they want to attack the grassland, the defense of Yanque Pass must not be left behind, so not all troops can go out to fight.
But only by going to war can you gain military exploits, so all generals are vying for the opportunity to go to war.
"His Royal Highness Prince Yu has arrived."
Following Laifu's shout, the conference hall instantly became quiet, and everyone turned their attention to the door.
Bang bang bang.
Following the sound of footsteps, Di Xin entered the conference hall for the first time after the New Year.
When Di Xin walked to the main seat vacated by Anjun Mountain, his eyes fell on the sand table.
In the center of the hall, on the sand table occupied by the deduction, several routes for attacking the grassland have been marked. This is the result of discussions over the past few months. Even Di Xin can't see any problems.
Withdrawing his gaze, Di Xin looked at the generals present again.
An Junshan understood, and immediately raised his hand and said: "Your Highness, the two cavalry troops of the Flying Tiger Army and the Flying Wolf Army have completed their recruitment and the training has been quite effective. When will we go to war?"
"Yes, Your Highness, when will we go to war?"
"Please make sure to let the humble ones fight."
"Get out of the way, it's obviously me who should fight..."
As you spoke to me, the conference hall slowly became noisy again.
"No rush."
Di Xin raised his hand to suppress the upcoming quarrel and said: "Although the heavy snow has disappeared, the soil is slippery and is not conducive to marching. My lords, please wait patiently for a few more days."
A trace of disappointment flashed across everyone's eyes, including An Junshan.
After guarding the border for many years, they fought countless battles with the Turks, large and small, but each time they focused on defense. Now that they had the opportunity to attack, they couldn't wait any longer for the last few days.
Seeing this, Emperor Xin scolded him coldly: "When marching and fighting, the most important thing is to avoid being impetuous. My lords, please don't lose your temper. Otherwise, the arrogant army will be defeated."
Hearing this, everyone including An Junshan paused.
After reacting, An Junshan was the first to hold up his hands and said: "Thank you for your teaching, Your Highness. Please bear this in mind."
Then Ouyang Xuan and the remaining generals handed over their hands at the same time: "Thank you for your teaching, Your Highness."
Having thwarted the Turks' southern invasion plan twice before, coupled with the 20,000 cavalry expansion this month and the formation provided by His Highness, they are indeed a little overconfident.
It's okay now, but if it were during war, it would probably be a big mistake.
Di Xin did not blame them for their impatience.
The general at the border has already been in a fight to the death situation, and now he has switched from defense to offense. Even if he changes to that identity, his reaction will be similar.
After bowing calmly, Di Xin ordered: "Everyone, there are not many days left until we send out troops. After we return, each ministry will start a wartime state, and the food and grass that have been prepared will be distributed to each team going out to war."
"Yes, I humbly obey the orders."
No one asked Di Xin which team should play. Although he did have the right to decide everything, he might not be able to make the most correct choice.
To put it bluntly, although Di Xin had a certain understanding of the various ministries, he had never been on the battlefield with them, so the information he knew was not necessarily comprehensive and accurate.
Emperor Xin did not make random appointments, but gave the decision-making power to An Junshan.
Later, after everyone discussed some possible loopholes in the plan, Di Xin left the meeting hall and returned the leadership to An Junshan.
There is no need for him to participate in the following matters for the time being.
As soon as King Yu left, the generals who were still a little depressed immediately exploded and started fighting for the position to fight again.
Among them is Ouyang Xuan.
As the commander of the capital and the most powerful general second only to An Junshan, he naturally had the right to fight, and what he was fighting for was not the position to fight.
Originally, An Junshan wanted Ouyang Xuan to follow him, but Ouyang Xuan wanted to personally lead a team into the grassland.
Based on Ouyang Xuan's previous status in the General's Mansion, although his official position was lower than An Junshan's, there was no need to fear him.
However, he did not abuse his relationship with King Yu, but relied on his own abilities to fight for it, and this is what Di Xin and An Junshan admired about him.
In the end, An Junshan agreed to Ouyang Xuan's request, but placed him on a less important route.
The Turkic tribes passing by on this route were not strong, but Ouyang Xuan was not dissatisfied.
Compared with the generals present, his qualifications are actually not very high. Therefore, he is satisfied with being able to command an army alone. Any other requirements would be overreaching.
