Chapter 406: War Preparations

    

You... it's you, this princess has something to tell you."The man hesitated for a moment, but ultimately walked over. "I wonder what the princess commands"“This princess does indeed have something for...At this time, within the Bei Jiang camp

An Xuetang and others had already finished their evening meal, and now they were gathered in the council tent discussing the military deployment for the next day.

"We don't need to send that many troops. With just a hundred thousand soldiers in the Dàyuè Nation, since we're going to make a move, let's just bomb them directly."

An Xuetang said coldly.

Everyone looked at her in surprise, unable to understand how An Xue Tang could say such things.

But if you think about it, An Xuetang has already given them enough surprises. They really don't need this one more time.

Mò Jūn Yì pursed her lips, "Mother, what do you think"

"By not allowing the soldiers of Dàyuè to return to their city, we will avoid harming innocent civilians and prevent them from suffering because of us."

Saying that, An Xuetang inserted the four flags in front, behind, left, and right of a mountain and began to arrange:

"At the hour of ugliness, Chou Shi led a thousand elite soldiers from Tang Valley, divided into four groups, to attack from all four corners. Each soldier carried two bombs and, based on crowd density and distance, they would detonate them, catching everyone off guard."

"Hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Great Yue Kingdom definitely wouldn't all die from explosives, so this is when you, Yun Yi, need to lead your troops to handle the aftermath."

But by this time, the army of Da Yue Country was also down to very few soldiers. Five thousand troops would be enough for you.

Yun Yi had no objections and bowed respectfully, saying, "My subordinate will obey."

An Xuetang immediately looked at Yun Wu, "Yun Wu, you bring fifty thousand soldiers and attack Dàyuè Country with me. At this time, Dàyuè Country's army is insufficient, sending fifty thousand soldiers there will be enough."

"Currently, we still have about a hundred explosives in camp. We're taking thirty with us to Dajue country this time. If the emperor of Dajue country refuses to surrender, we'll have to use the explosives. If we can easily take him out, we'll save our explosives."

Xunluo and Yunwu both bowed. "Yes."

Mo Junyi frowned, “Mother, you’re going to personally lead troops to Dàyuè Country Wasn’t it agreed that I would go”

"You have to go, but your mother won't feel comfortable with you going alone, so we'll go together."

This military campaign also serves another important purpose: to establish a persona for Duke Mo Jun Yi.

This time, going to Dàyuè Country, An Xuetang wanted to take this opportunity to completely expose Mò Jūn'yi to the public, making him in the hearts of the people, a brave and mighty general, or a prince who is kind-hearted!

She needs to lay the groundwork for Mo Junyi's future.

Mo Junyi wanted to shake his head and refuse. In his view, the battlefield was a place where swords were unsheathed and eyes were blind. His uncle had entrusted his mother's safety to him, how could he let her be in such a dangerous situation

Without waiting for him to refute, Feng Ming spoke from the side, "I agree with A Tang's arrangement, Ziling, you stay by your mother's side."

But...

An Xue Tang patted his shoulder, "There's nothing to be said about it. That's the decision we've made. Let's go together to attack Great Yue."

"Brother, after we leave, North Border City will be left to you and Yun San. Yun San is more familiar with the city. If anything seems amiss, be sure to inform me immediately, brother. As for how to respond, discuss it yourselves."

"The remaining dozens of explosives are left in the city. In case someone dares to come knocking while we're gone, you should know what to do, elder brother."

Feng Ming nodded and hummed in agreement.

Yun San clasped his hands and replied.

An Xue Tang looked at Yun Yi, "As for the soldiers in the city, Yun Yi you are responsible for going to each general and explaining."

As they spoke, An Xue Tang planted the four banners in the four directions of Beijiang. "Just in case, the remaining 200,000 soldiers should guard each of these four places."

When they saw where An Xuetang had divided, the north side, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

An Xuetang knew what they meant by those eyes and said faintly, "Although Blue Nation is now within a credible range, one should always be wary of others."

Especially when it comes to matters involving national interests and significant territorial gains, An Xuetang had to be cautious.

In the 21st century, brothers can even fight to the death over a small inheritance from their parents.

Now facing them is a city, which poses the question of who becomes emperor. With such immense stakes, An Xuetang couldn't guarantee that Lan Chu Xiao hadn't been touched by compassion.

So, for the sake of caution, the north still needs to deploy troops for defense.

After hearing An Xue Tang's words, everyone felt that it was necessary to be on guard. However, Yun Yi and a few others, as well as Lan Chu Xiao, were once brothers who spoke without reservation. So, hearing An Xue Tang say they should be wary of Lan Chu Xiao, they all felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

Although it wasn't comfortable, An Xuetang had to listen to her arrangements.

After An Xuetang and Yun Yi discussed the deployment of troops, everyone began to act.

Yun Yi then brought over two sets of battle armor, one for An Xue Tang and the other for Mo Jun Yi. Both were custom-made to fit their figures perfectly.

An Xuetang touched her battle suit, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly, she muttered something that made everyone confused:

"I didn't expect that Ajing and I would have couple outfits to wear on the battlefield."

After she finished speaking, she took Ning'er back to the camp to change clothes. The others also began to act.

Meanwhile

Eleven and King Lan are discussing matters in the Blue Kingdom's palace. Lan Chu Xiao has already read Mo Yun Jing's handwritten letter.

Originally, Mo Yunjing had anticipated that upon his return to the capital, he would likely be controlled by the emperor. Therefore, he had made preparations long ago.

Before entering the capital, he contacted Xuan and Chi countries.

These two countries are located to the east and west of Beijing, being the only two great powers on the mainland after Heaven's Domination.

Mo Yunjing, having long harbored ambitions to rival the Emperor, had secretly been in contact with the Emperors of those two countries.

And before he entered the capital this time, he had promised these two emperors that if something happened in the north frontier, he hoped that these two countries would join forces with Blue Country to take down Ancheng and Yangcheng in one fell swoop.

And what Mo Yunjing offered them was — the Da Yue Kingdom and the Xi Liang Kingdom!

Mo Yunjing had long suspected that his father would send troops to fight against Beijiang and would collude with the Dayue Kingdom and Xiliang Kingdom.

In that case, there was no need for him to keep the Dàyuè and Xīliáng kingdoms. He might as well give both countries as good deeds to Xuán and Chì.

Both Xuan Guo and Chi Guo had once been defeated by Mo Yun Jing, so they were well aware of his capabilities. While they might not believe the promises of others, they held no doubt in the fulfillment of Mo Yun Jing's word.

So, now all the Blue King needs to do is contact those two countries, and then the three kingdoms along with Beijang will unite!

After finishing the letter, Lan Chu Xiao looked at Eleven, "Do Yun Yi and the others know about this alliance between Xuan and Chi countries Do the Princess and Prince of Beijang know"

Eleven shook her head, "I don't know."

Lan Chu Xiao frowned, pondering for a moment, "Why would the Northern Border King have me contact these two countries instead of you going directly from the North Border"special signals, nor even a single bird.Han Yun pursed her lips, pondering for a moment, then she directly ordered, "Go in and have a look."Finally able to act, those who received the command were som...
