Kan Yue and Chen Tian both looked at Ke Hong. They never expected that Ke Hong would say such words in front of them. Don't forget that Kan Yue is a princess. If she said these words to Pan Ning
The emperor heard that General Ke Hong was doomed and it was impossible for the emperor to leave such a general behind.
Although this situation is very small, it is still possible after all. The fact that Ke Hong can say these words is enough to show that he is really loyal to Kan Jie. Just like what he said, no one can change his loyalty.
At this moment, a maid walked into the hall and said respectfully: "General, the food is ready."
Ke Hong nodded, signaled the maid to leave, and said respectfully to Kan Yue: "Your Highness, the food is ready. Please go to the side hall to have a meal."
"We have General Lao Ke!" Kan Yue stood up and said.
Chen Tian also got up with Xiaoyu, and the three of them followed Ke Hong and walked to the side hall. When they arrived at the side hall, the first thing they saw was a table full of delicacies. All kinds of precious ingredients were made into various delicacies, filling a table.
Huge round table.
Ke Hong gently pulled open the main chair and said respectfully: "Your Highness, please!"
Kan Yue hesitated for a moment, then sat down on the main seat. After Kan Yue sat down, Ke Hong looked at Chen Tian and extended his hand to make a gesture of invitation. Chen Tian was not polite and sat down next to Kan Yue, and
He pulled a chair aside and placed Xiaoyu on the chair.
Because Xiaoyu was too small, she couldn't see the tabletop at all when sitting on the chair, so she got up and stood on the chair, put her hands on the edge of the table and looked at the table. After she didn't see her favorite rice, she
He curled his lips and sat down on the chair, showing no interest.
Seeing this, Kan Yue smiled and said to Ke Hong, "General Ke, please prepare a bowl of rice."
Ke Hong was stunned for a moment, obviously a little confused, but he still followed the instructions and ordered his servants to fetch a bowl of rice.
After the servant brought the rice, Kan Yue reached out to take it, and then handed it to Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, and she took the rice bowl and was ready to eat. However, she seemed to feel something was wrong, and looked up at everyone, and then
He ran to the side with the rice bowl and started eating by himself.
Seeing Xiaoyu hugging a rice bowl about the same size as herself and taking a big bite, Ke Hong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Seeing this, Kan Yue explained: "She has a bit of a big appetite, just leave her alone."
"Yes!" Ke Hong nodded with a strange expression, but he would still glance at Xiaoyu from time to time. Even Xu Shu and the maid standing aside would glance at Xiaoyu from time to time. They had never seen such a delicious child.
.
Ke Hong was a general after all, and his expression quickly returned to normal, saying: "Your Highness, Princess, do you have any good plans to rescue General Kan Jie?"
Hearing Ke Hong mention this question, Kan Yue also turned his attention to Chen Tian. Chen Tian picked up a piece of delicacy and put it in his mouth, raised his head and asked: "General Ke, has there been any war in the Panning Kingdom recently?"
Ke Hong pondered for a while and then said: "In about ten days, the Longwu Empire may attack the west of the Panning Kingdom. My little brother asked what is going on?"
"How many troops are there for a strong attack?" Chen Tian asked.
"No less than three hundred thousand." Ke Hong replied.
"How many troops are guarding the west side now?" Chen Tian continued to ask.
"Less than 200,000." Ke Hong replied impatiently.
"That means we have to dispatch troops from other places to support the west." Chen Tian tapped his fingers on the table and said slowly.
"That's the theory." Ke Hong nodded.
"Then where do you think you will mobilize troops to support the west?" Chen Tian continued.
Ke Hong lowered his head and thought for a while, then analyzed: "There is the Yang Chong Empire in the east, and it is impossible to dispatch troops from the east. It is impossible to dispatch troops easily in the imperial city. The most likely option is to dispatch troops from the north and south."
Chen Tian shook his head and said, "It's impossible in the north!"
"How do you say this?" Ke Hong asked doubtfully.
Chen Tian glanced at Kan Yue and said with a smile: "The troops in the north must always be on guard against those involved in the empire. It is absolutely impossible for the royal family to mobilize troops from the north."
Only then did Ke Hong think of the marriage with the She empire that had been reported in the past few days. Now that the protagonist of the marriage appeared here, he could probably guess what happened.
Thinking of this, Ke Hongduo glanced at Chen Tian and understood the meaning of Chen Tian's words. A big country like the She Empire would definitely not tolerate the humiliation of marriage robbery. For safety reasons, the royal family would only strengthen the defense in the north.
, it is absolutely impossible to mobilize troops from the north again.
When Ke Hong looked at him, Chen Tian also looked at him. The two looked at each other and smiled. Ke Hong said, "Then we can only mobilize troops from the south now."
Chen Tian looked at Ke Hong and said with a smile: "What will General Ke do?"
Ke Hong laughed and said: "Nowadays, there are frequent foreign invasions in the south. There are no extra troops to transfer to the west, and there is nothing the general can do."
Chen Tian laughed loudly, picked up the wine glass on the table, clinked it with Ke Hong, and drank it all in one gulp. Ke Hong also drank the wine in the glass, and the maid behind him quickly filled it up for the two of them.
Chen Tian picked up the wine glass and shook it gently and said: "Since the north, south and east cannot send troops, we can only mobilize troops from the imperial city to support the west. General Ke, which general do you think the emperor will dispatch?"
Ke Hong said slowly: "Unsurprisingly, it should be General Yan Xu. His position is second only to General Kan Jie. He is also the commander of the Imperial City Guards and holds 500,000 troops."
"Are you sure?" Chen Tian continued to ask.
"We are 80% sure that the Panning Kingdom is on the verge of breaking out. Once the west is lost, the Panning Kingdom will not be far away from being destroyed." After saying that, Ke Hong glanced at Kan Yue and saw that her expression was as usual.
He also breathed a sigh of relief. It was a bit disrespectful to say that the country would be subjugated in front of the princess.
Chen Tian nodded and said: "After all the imperial city guards have been transferred, how many troops are left in the imperial city?"
"There are still 50,000 Imperial Guards." Kan Yue on the side said before Ke Hong could speak.
Chen Tian nodded and said: "With fifty thousand imperial guards and the masters hidden in the imperial city, although the chance of winning is still very small, there is at least a slight chance of winning."
Then he looked at Ke Hong and said, "General Ke, the emperor must have guessed the reason why you didn't send troops. Aren't you afraid of the emperor's blame?"
Ke Hong said with a smile: "The emperor should worry about foreign enemies now. He won't touch me in a short time. After all, I still want to guard the south."
Chen Tian nodded, said no more, and began to taste the delicacies on the table. Now they only need to wait for the emperor's order to mobilize troops and wait for the Imperial City Guards to leave the Imperial City. Then it will be a good time for them to take action.
After the meal, Ke Hong arranged a residence for Chen Tian and Kan Yue. It was a luxuriously decorated manor with dozens of rooms. Since Ke Hong didn't know the relationship between Kan Yue and Chen Tian, he had no choice but to
This can be arranged.
That night, when Ke Hong just returned to his room, a jade slip on his waist flickered. He took it off, and a cold voice came from it: "Quickly lead 200,000 people to reinforce the west."
Ke Hong's eyes were cold. He recognized that the owner of the voice was the emperor, and this jade slip was General Kan Jie and his special sound transmission jade slip. Now it is in the hands of the emperor. It seems that what Chen Tian and others said is true.
.
He picked up the jade slip and said: "Emperor, the south is often invaded by foreign enemies. I'm afraid there are no extra troops to reinforce the west."
