Chapter 311 Yan Ning's true ambition is finally exposed!
In fact, Yan Ning could understand the idea of the king of Nanqing.
The Dagan Kingdom and the Beiliang Kingdom were in chaos, and they fought with Yanning in the northern border, while the 350,000 troops of Nanqing were already at the foot of the Dagan King Kong.
How could they wait at this time? As long as they can win the capital of Dagan in one fell swoop before Yan Ning leads his army to arrive, it would be equivalent to tearing off a piece of super fat in this battle.
Because, the destruction of a country has become inevitable.
If Kyoto City can be taken down, it will be equivalent to dividing the territory of the Dagan Kingdom into two. Then, as long as the passage of Nanjun is opened, the territory of Dagan and Nanqing will be successfully connected.
At this point, Nan Qing became the most powerful country!
"Yan Ning, this is really not what I mean..." Qiu Xian'er looked at Yan Ning, with a little nervous look in her eyes, and even changed her "Senior Brother" to Yan Ning.
"Who does that mean?" Yan Ning looked at Qiu Xian'er with a serious look on his face, and he felt a little anxious to laugh.
"Yes... I don't know very well, but it's definitely not the monarch's intention. She has already agreed to me, just threatening the army and will not really take action." Qiu Xian'er gritted her teeth, obviously not knowing what Yan Ning was thinking.
"Well, if the battle situation in the northern border is not successful, the king of Nanqing will definitely remain unmoved. However, the big fight has been defeated in the northern border and the east will not break and die in the battle. This news cannot be hidden. Even if the king of Nanqing really abides by the agreement, will Nanqing's civil and military officials abide by it?" Yan Ning explained for Qiu Xian'er.
"No matter what, the problem lies in Nanqing, I will deal with it!" Qiu Xian'er was still a little responsible.
"Actually, I have always had one thing that I didn't understand very well. Can my junior sister help me with answers?" Yan Ning pulled Qiu Xian'er and returned to the carriage.
"Master...Senior Brother, please ask." Qiu Xian'er was stunned for a moment and changed back to the title of "Senior Brother".
"Why did your master die? According to your words, after the battle with Jiu Lingzi, your master was only injured and would recover in a few months, but he was in a hurry to pass on his cultivation to you. Why is this?" Yan Ning said in confusion.
"This is actually because..." Qiu Xian'er seemed a little hesitant, but after a moment, she sighed softly and said, "Actually, there is an immortal sect that has always wanted to replace our Saint Palace in Nanqing Kingdom."
"From the Wanxian Alliance?" Yan Ning didn't seem surprised.
"Yes, my senior brother already knows that the Temple of the War God in the Dagan Kingdom is actually a branch of the Five Thunder Sect, and the National Master Mansion of the Beiliang Kingdom is also a branch of the Changsheng Sect. Only our Saint Palace is not. Although we used to be the second-grade immortal sect, let alone the second-grade immortal sect, even the third-grade immortal sect in the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance is not as good as the third-grade immortal sect."
Qiu Xian'er paused and continued, "On the seventh day after the master was injured, a guest came to visit, and he was the Fengtang Lord of the 'Qingxiu Sect'."
"So that's how it is." Yan Ning suddenly realized.
"Senior brother, I have never shown any surprise expression. I think I guessed it a long time ago. The reason I asked me was just to prove my thoughts, right?" Qiu Xian'er looked at Yan Ning seriously.
"Well, I did guess a little." Yan Ning nodded.
In fact, when Qiu Xian'er talked about the Holy Maiden Palace and the Wanxian Alliance, he had some speculations. After all, the Holy Maiden Palace no longer has its former glory, and it is normal to be replaced.
"Why did senior brother suddenly ask this?"
"Haha, junior sister might as well think of a question. If the Lord of Nanqing knew that you called me Senior Brother, and at this time, the Fengtang Lord of Qingxiu Sect happened to appear in front of her, and pointed at half of the Dagan Kingdom, what choice would she make?" Yan Ning did not answer Qiu Xian'er's question, but asked back.
"Teng!"
Qiu Xian'er stood up directly.
His head slammed into the roof of the carriage.
"It's too late. If the King of Nanqing did not have strong support, how could he ignore your advice?" Yan Ning looked at Qiu Xian'er and shook his head gently.
"No, no! My Saint Palace has been in Nanqing for thousands of years and has been trying its best to subdue demons and demons. It has never interfered with the royal power. Nanqing will not do this to my Saint Palace!" Qiu Xian'er kept shaking her head.
"Do you know why Yizhi Peach Blossoms has a high status in Beiliang? Because the branch she built was called the "National Teachers' Mansion". Although she ignored the government affairs, she actually stood firmly behind the Northern Liang royal family. Moreover, in the name, it was also ruled by the Northern Liang Kingdom, and even her disciples still had positions in the army."
"What can this... prove?"
"Before Dongfang Bupo Di, he told me that the King of Dagan killed the previous crown prince because the prince threatened his position. Then, because my father knew about this, the King of Dagan had no choice but to design that Dongfang Bupo Di and killed my father, the method was to compensate a concubine." Yan Ning spoke again.
"..." Qiu Xian'er suddenly fell silent.
"What is royal power? Only the supreme can be called royal power. If you are born, you will be born. If you are killed, you will be killed. Since ancient times, all emperors have been like this? How many meritorious officials have been bloody and killed, and then they are killed because of their great achievements? A general has been invincible for eternity. Which of the emperors in history books is not full of corpses? In order to be able to hold the throne, they do everything they can do. The so-called imperial art is balance, using treacherous ministers to balance loyal ministers, and using loyal ministers to balance treacherous ministers. In order to regain control of the court, they can even kill their own sons. Besides, the princes under the royal power, they plot against each other and their brothers are traitors. Do you really think that your "neutral" saint palace will make the royal power retreat in front of you?"
Yan Ning looked directly at Qiu Xian'er. He could see that Qiu Xian'er's expression changed significantly, her face was a little pale, and a hint of horror flashed in her eyes.
"But I am an immortal. There are so many disciples in the innate realm in my Saint Palace. Even if she has this idea, she will never really take it to the action!"
"So, she needs a new immortal gate, a powerful immortal gate, and this immortal gate promises conditions, such as: she must guard her royal power and can take action at critical moments, I guess no one can refuse." Yan Ning spread his hands.
"thump!"
Qiu Xian'er sat down.
Her face was covered with delicate sweat, her chest was undulating rapidly, and her palms were pinching extremely tightly, and she was obviously struggling fiercely.
"Do you want to prove my guess?" Yan Ning continued.
"How...how to prove it?" Qiu Xian'er came back to her senses from the struggle, a little confused.
"It's very simple. Now we have two ways to go. The first way is to let Nanqing's army move out of the way. Then, we will enter Kyoto City openly on the grounds of going to Beijing to serve the king. This will undoubtedly reduce casualties."
"What about the second one?"
"Of course, we will increase troops to the Nanqing Kingdom and send several generals to help them attack the city, so as to power the king of Dagan to surrender. Although this will increase some casualties, it can also destroy the city."
"I think both strategies are good. Relatively speaking, the first one is better. Daxing is still resisting until now, so I definitely don't know the news that Dongfang will not defeat the war. Therefore, if you can pretend to be Dongfang and not defeat the city, it is naturally the best strategy! However, the second one is also very good. When the two armies join forces and the morale of the big army disperses, they will immediately open the city and surrender." Qiu Xian'er thought for a while, then looked at Yan Ning slowly for advice.
"Don't look at me, I will give the choice to Commander Nan Qing. The junior sister only needs to listen to it and you will know what Nan Qing Kingdom really thinks." Yan Ning also looked at Qiu Xian'er.
"Okay, then I'll listen." Qiu Xian'er nodded.
Although she didn't know what Yan Ning meant by saying this, the two strategies proposed by Yan Ning could be considered the best ones, so there should be no problem, right?
"Come here, send a letter to Commander Nan Qing!" Yan Ning walked out of the carriage directly.
"yes!"
...
About an hour later.
An envoy came to see him in Nanqing's army.
The visitor was dressed in a scribe costume, shaking a feather fan in his hand and a square hat on his head. He looked like a strategist who was good at calculating and verbalizing.
"The envoy of Nanqing, the left governor of the army, was sent to the army, and met the Duke of Yan!" The scholar approached Yan Ning's carriage and bowed respectfully to the carriage.
"It's not necessary to be polite to come. I wonder what choice Commander Nan Qing's plan to me?" Yan Ning walked out of the carriage with Qiu Xian'er, and was not too polite, so he asked directly.
"I had heard of the celestial fairy-like appearance of Duke Yan, and when I saw him today, he was indeed extraordinary." Zhu Youdao gave another tribute, and then he gave another tribute to Qiu Xian'er: "The counselor Zhu Youdao has seen the Lord Qiu Palace!"
"Well, Zhu Youdao, what choice does Lin Shuai make?" Qiu Xian'er waved her hand and asked.
"Haha...Well, Zhu Youdao has a saying, don't you know whether to say it or not?" Zhu Youdao smiled and shook his head, not looking anxious.
"Of course it's not to be said." Yan Ning spoke slowly.
"..." All the Taos.
"Hahaha, let's be polite. We are all our own family. We can spray whatever we want. No matter how presumptuous you are today, I will not kill you." Yan Ning smiled.
"Uh? This... OK, then I'll say it straight." Zhu Youdao's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and continued: "Duke Yan is indeed very handsome, but the plan is inappropriate."
"Well, please give me advice?"
"Okay, then I will discuss the feasibility of these two strategies. First, the first thing is that I don't think it's appropriate for Duke Yan to dress up as Dongfang Bubo and go to Beijing to serve the king."
“What’s wrong?”
"Three points are inappropriate. First of all, our army has already gained an absolute advantage. It is only a matter of time to capture Kyoto City. If our army is withdrawn at this time, it may give the enemy a chance to counterattack. Secondly, what Duke Yan said about pretending to be Dongfang Bubo, but in fact Dongfang Bubo is dead. It is still unknown whether the monarch knows this. Although this plan is good, it is too risky. Finally, once the withdrawal of the army will affect our morale. The Duke of the State should know that the army should fight, morale should be the first. Therefore, we, Mr. Lin, think that the first way is inappropriate!"
"Well, what Lin Shuai means is, have you chosen the second one?" Yan Ning seemed to have expected it.
"No, the second one is also inappropriate."
"Oh,? The second one, what's wrong?"
"The two armies have different tactics, and our army has been fighting with the Dagan Guards for many days. If we rashly join forces at this time, the general's command may have differences, which will affect the combat power and increase casualties. Besides, although our Nanqing Kingdom intends to cooperate with Duke Yan, it is impossible for us to really hand over the Duke Yan. It is always necessary to have a guard against others."
"Haha, what you said makes sense, junior sister, did you hear it?" Yan Ning also turned his eyes to Qiu Xian'er when he heard this.
"I heard it." Qiu Xian'er gritted her teeth.
"Then Mr. Zhu, what are the plans for Lin Shuai?" Yan Ning asked directly without delaying any more.
"Msir Lin means, please ask Duke Yan to retreat twenty miles to garrison the troops, and after we, Nanqing, capture the capital of Dagan, then hand over the king of Dagan to you."
"Where is the time?"
"In three days, within three days, you will definitely go to Kyoto City!"
"What if three worlds can't be completed?"
"Of course, we act according to the strategy of Duke Yan." Zhu Youdao affirmed.
"Okay, thank you Mr. Zhu and Shuai Lin. I will do things like Lin Shuai. However, twenty miles are too far away. I am afraid that I won't be able to catch up with the celebration at that time. How about retreating ten miles?"
"Shan, Duke Guo is indeed a great man. Please ask Duke Guo Jinghou for three days, and good news will come." A hint of joy flashed in Zhu Youdao's eyes, and he immediately saluted Yan Ning.
"Well, in three days, I will have wine imperial garden with Lin Shuai."
"Hahaha, that envoy said goodbye!" Zhu Youdao said, and then bowed to Qiu Xian'er: "The king has a saying, entrusting his subordinates to bring it to Qiu Palace Master."
"What do you mean?"
"this……"
"You guys talk, I'll go to other places first." Yan Ning of course knew what Zhu Youdao meant, so he jumped off the carriage and walked towards the distance.
Zhu Youdao waited until Yan Ning walked away before approaching Qiu Xian'er, and spoke carefully: "Master Qiu, the monarch means that the monarch must hold Yan Ning for three days. After our army took over the Dagan Kyoto, the monarch will personally welcome the monarch back to the country. Moreover, the monarch promised that as long as there is Nanqing for one day, there will be a Saint's Palace for one day!"
"Okay, I understand." Qiu Xian'er's fist tightened slightly, then nodded.
"Then the ministers will say goodbye. Please ask the Lord Qiu Palace to take Nanqing Country as the priority!" After Zhu Youdao said that, he bent and slowly retreated.
“…”
Qiu Xian'er stood on the carriage.
She looked up, looked at the sky, looked at the winter clouds, and felt the winter wind.
After a long time, she turned around.
Not far away, a boy in white was standing, looking at the sky, the clouds in the sky, and feeling the bitter winter wind.
"The Holy Maiden Palace has not sent me a letter for seven days." Qiu Xian'er suddenly spoke.
"Before the war is really over, the king will not be able to attack the Saint Maiden Palace. It just blocked the news that the Saint Maiden Palace conveyed to the outside." Yan Ning replied casually.
Chapter completed!
