Ruinan Mountain, the headquarters of the Central Army Corps.
Feng Haohan looked at the two completely different orders in his hands and was stunned.
"General," Military Advisor Liu pondered for a while, "His Majesty's order was clearly sent, and we must execute it first no matter what. As for His Highness King Qin's intention, let's slowly clarify his intention first."
Feng Haohan nodded.
boom.
He slammed the table.
"Immediately issue an order to former General Lin, asking them to arrive at Huayang County within ten days. Anyone who dares to delay will be dealt with according to military law."
The central army arches the Satellite Ji City, and behind it is Ruinan Racecourse, one of the three major racecourses in Yunchui. It can be said that everyone from generals to soldiers are equipped with horses. If you really want to reach the front line of Huayang County within ten days, it is really not possible.
What a difficult thing.
"yes!"
After giving the order, Feng Haohan raised his head and looked at the eastern sky, and couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty's order is so harshly worded. What is the current situation at Dinghai Pier?"
"this……"
Several military strategists looked at each other with expressions of embarrassment on their faces.
"General, almost all the spies sent by our legion are in the direction of Xingji City and Jiuyuan County. Although there are some in Huayang County, there are not many. The specific situation of Dinghai Wharf has not been reported back yet."
"But seeing how nervous His Majesty is, I guess Mo Canghai can't bear it anymore."
snort!
Feng Haohan showed disdain on his face, "What on earth do the guards in places like Mo Canghai do for food?"
They're just some remote barbarians. There are 30,000 of them, but they can't even defend it for a day or two?
In contrast, Xiao Zhengke stayed in Baekje for almost three years and did not let any Japanese pirates board Jinlong Beach.
Military Advisor Liu laughed loudly, "General, isn't that strange?"
"In the final analysis, they are just local garrison troops with poor equipment and insufficient training. They usually have an easy time fighting bandits and bandits, but once they encounter an invasion by foreign enemies, they are a bit reluctant."
"That's right." Others puffed up their chests, "After all, it's up to us, the border guards, to deal with foreign enemies. No, His Majesty has asked our central army to rush to Huayang County as soon as possible."
Feng Haohan smiled and said nothing, and his eyes fell again on the message sent by King Qin.
"General, His Highness the King of Qin's message is unclear, but we are only allowed to contribute one or two cents. What does this mean?"
"What's the point?" Other military advisors disagreed.
They are just barbarians. In previous years, they did not have enough food and clothing. If it were not separated by an ocean, they would have been crushed by Yun Chui's army like Nan Feng.
Now they have come all the way across the sea, their physical strength and energy are exhausted, and the landing battle has always been difficult to defend and difficult to attack.
Such an enemy is not worthy of the full strength of the Central Army Corps.
"indeed."
The others nodded one after another, a little puzzled by the message sent by King Qin.
After a while, Military Advisor Liu stood up.
"General, His Highness sent a special message. It is impossible for it to be missed. Do you think that His Highness is using your strength to gain strength?"
"What do you mean?" A bunch of people looked at each other, all a little confused.
"Who are you going to hit, Your Highness?"
hehe.
Military Advisor Liu did not answer.
He confidently walked to the map, raised his hand and focused on Pinghai County, then moved downwards, finally landing on Sulan County below Pinghai County.
"Your Highness's intention should be these two places!"
Pinghai County, Sulan County?
What's going on?
"General," Military Advisor Liu did not explain, but bowed his hand respectfully towards Feng Haohan.
"As we all know, since the East China Sea barrier was established, it is their duty to defend the East China Sea."
"Now the Japanese pirates are already attacking our coastline, and may even have landed in Huayang County. But Lu Fuhai and his fleet have not returned yet. Is this considered a dereliction of duty on their part?"
Everyone's eyes lit up, including Feng Haohan.
Who is Donghai Barrier or Lu Fuhai?
That's someone from the Ministry of War.
In other words, they are the party that supports Chen Xiuzhu.
Previously, Lu Fuhai neglected his duties in Baekje, and as a result, Japanese pirates burned countless warships in vain; later, he lost the prince Chen Xiuzhu.
If the Ministry of War hadn't fought tooth and nail to protect him, he would have been summoned to Xingji City for questioning just based on these two incidents.
Speaking of this, Military Master Liu smiled slyly.
"As for our Central Army Corps, after all, we were ordered in a critical situation. In addition, the distance between the two places is long. Even if the soldiers can arrive at Huayang County in time, it will definitely be too late for all kinds of baggage."
"As the saying goes, it's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. We were temporarily outnumbered and it was understandable that we accidentally allowed the Japanese pirates to come ashore. Do you think this is correct?"
How can it be?
Everyone subconsciously wanted to refute.
They're just Japanese pirates. With the capabilities of the Central Army Corps, it's impossible to stop them even if they don't bring any baggage?
However, their eyes fell on the news about King Qin, and they reacted immediately.
"That's right."
"We fight with weapons and equipment. Our baggage has not arrived, and even if we accidentally miss it, it is normal."
…
hehe.
Seeing everyone's understanding, Military Advisor Liu was even more proud.
He slowly stroked his gray beard.
"As the saying goes, nothing matters more than three things."
"The first two incidents have made His Majesty very dissatisfied with Lu Fuhai. And where is Huayang County? It is one of the top ten superior counties in Yunchui. If the Japanese pirates come ashore and are trampled, His Majesty the King of Qin will not be there again.
Just say a few words, I guess Lu Fuhai won't be able to sit in his seat for long."
"Indeed." Everyone nodded, "If I were His Majesty, I would have beheaded Lu Fuhai long ago."
"That's the truth."
cough.
Military Master Liu coughed.
Everyone quickly fell silent.
"In addition, have you ever thought about why the Japanese pirates chose to land in Huayang County?"
He didn't wait for anyone to say anything and continued speaking directly.
"In my opinion, in addition to the fact that Huayang County is the closest to the Sishan Islands, the Japanese pirates may also want to divert our attention by attacking Huayang County to hide their true goal."
Feng Haohan's eyes brightened, "Are you talking about Sulan County or Sulan City?"
"The general is brilliant." Commander Liu flattered him.
"Huayang County is not too far from Pinghai County and Sulan County, and there are wide and large roads. As long as the Japanese pirates get ashore and go south along the land route, they can reach them in a few days."
"When the time comes, they will attack from both sea and land. I'm afraid that Sulan City, the richest city in Yunchui, will fall into their hands before we can react."
As long as they rob Sulan City, which is the richest place in the world, the Japanese pirates will definitely make a profit no matter where they go back to the sea or where they go.
boom.
"That's right!" Feng Haohan reacted and slapped the table excitedly.
"I understand. I'm afraid His Highness's goal is not only to kill Lu Fuhaihai, but also to target Qian Liang, the Minister of Household Affairs."
The tax paid by each of the ten upper-level counties in Yunchui is not a small amount every year. It can be said that the tax revenue of one upper-level county is worth four or five lower-level counties.
Not to mention Sulan City, which is the economic capital of Yunchui, and its status is almost the same as the imperial capital Xingji City.
If these places really fell into the hands of Japanese pirates, not only Emperor Changxing but also Qian Liang, the Minister of Household Affairs, would jump up and kill them.
"The general is still smart," Military Advisor Liu said respectfully, "but my subordinates are stupid. I didn't think of the Hubu for a moment."
