Chapter forty-eight

"Your Majesty, you don't know where the main force of the enemy is. You must not rashly recall the Grand Marshal! Once the front-line army encounters ambush, the country of Dali will be crumbling!!"

Han Xin was full of bitterness and insisted on arguing.

"If Your Majesty summons the remaining troops in the country and defends the city to the death... it will inevitably slow down the enemy's advance and wait for the Grand Marshal to lead the army back to the rescue!"

Upon hearing this, General Dang Li just sneered.

"Haha... Could it be that our country has been lost and the royal family is in trouble, so the country will not be crumbling?!"

Dang Li kept saying that he only said that the country was safe and that he only talked about His Majesty’s safety. He said that he put the safety of the Holy Body above everything else!

Obviously, although what Han Xin said is obviously more reasonable, it is also obviously more rational in terms of strategic deployment.

After all, strict defense is only a small chance of being captured by the enemy country. However, if the front-line army returns in a hurry and encounters ambush, Dali will be in danger and will be dead in a daze!

But what he said at this moment was to bet on the safety of the capital and the Holy Emperor!

Even if it is small, even if Dali has a strong city to rely on, the current enemy's army is rushing straight to the atrium, and it is about to be soldier outside the Chen country!

How dare this bet on a young holy emperor who is only over 20 years old?! The fastest update is mobile::

Therefore, it is precisely because of this that Zhuge An used such an open plan to rescue him if he attacked him, and the enemy's formation would be in chaos!

Even though Dali knew that he was cheating, even though Dali knew that he was being led by the other party, who dared to ignore the safety of the king?

In the ancient society where centralized powers were centralized, the monarch who was in charge of the country and the country encountered a life-and-death crisis, which was almost a fatal failure to solve the death situation!

And this is the harshness of this plan!

"General, don't generalize it in a single way! When did this Secretary of State say that he would ignore His Majesty's safety?! If troops were mobilized to deploy city defense, the city of Ancestral City would be as solid as a rock and would never be difficult to break!"

Han Xin was a little angry. The general kept silent and ignored His Majesty's safety. This was obviously a bad intention and he wanted to kill him!

"Haha... At present, my Dali gathers the national strength, and only 200,000 to 300,000 of them were stationed in Siting Pass to prevent the southwest border. The only ones that can be mobilized are even less than 200,000!"

When Dang Li heard this, he continued to sneer and opened his mouth to tell the deployment of troops under Dali's watch.

As the most powerful country in Jiuzhou, Dali has maintained its permanent military strength at around one million. At this time, the southern expedition of Dali had all its elite troops, and the 600,000 most powerful troops were all deployed on the southern battlefield where the front was advancing at a rapid advance!

The remaining more than 300,000 soldiers, of which 30,000 were stationed in Luoliang City, the western border, have now been completely captured and destroyed.

In addition, although Dali temporarily quelled the Huaiyi Rebellion in the east a few years ago, preventing the eastern border from war for several years, in order to prevent the Huaiyi, Dali still arranged 50,000 troops to guard the eastern border.

The remaining 300,000 troops and more than 100,000 were stationed in Siting Pass on the southwest border, ready to be on guard against the threat and attack of Daqian at any time.

In this way, except for the border troops that must be stationed in the border defense, the number of soldiers available in such a large Dali Dynasty is less than 200,000!

And this is obviously the core of the reason why the Holy Emperor of Heaven and the court officials in the palace are so worried!

"Is it possible that Lord Han wants to use a 200,000 army to reject 600,000 enemy troops outside the country?"

Dang Li smiled with a beard, as if he had just said something and forced Han Xin into a dead corner!

You should know that these 200,000 troops must be scattered in various cities in Dali, rather than gathering in one place!

With a large army of 200,000, we want to defend hundreds of cities in Dali and a more important capital?

This...but how is it possible?!

"But what's wrong?"

Unexpectedly, when Han Xin faced such a question, he was not only not afraid at all, but instead faced His Majesty the Holy Emperor, kneeled down on the ground and said with a loud voice!

"Your Majesty! I am willing to lead 100,000 troops and recruit another 100,000 troops to build a wall for Your Majesty. If you were not dead, you would never be able to let any enemy troops approach the city of Ancestral!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, as if they were infected by the determination of Han Xin, the Minister of War, who was willing to sacrifice his life for the country.

But he could clearly choose to recall the front-line army to protect the king and ensure the safety of the capital and His Majesty, but why did Han Xin insist on this and even take risks without hesitation?!

Could it be that Han Xin is really as he is dedicated to the country and sacrifices himself for the public as he is now?

"Hmph! Lord Han is not suspicious of this determination, but have you ever thought that if there is a mistake in the atrium and the royal family is in danger, even if you, Han Xin, die... it is enough to atone for your sins?!"

General Dang Li's eyes were bright and he shot Han Xin directly!

And his words were like sharp arrows, thrusting Han Xin’s vital heart!

His meaning is very simple. You, Han Xin, have the determination to sacrifice your life for the country, but how can your life be as important as His Majesty the capital?

If your proposal really leads to the loss of the capital and the royal family suffers, Han Xin will die thousands of times... and it will be difficult to redeem this crime!!

Even though he knew that the country might be defeated by the enemy, he could once raise the banner of defending the country and protecting the king, and he would be the best representative of loyalty to the king and the country, and he would be able to gain the trust of His Majesty and become the central minister of power again!

Therefore, Dang Li must do his best to promote this matter and order the Grand Marshal to lead the front-line army to return to the rescue quickly!

As for what Han Xin said that the enemy might be ambushed in the middle, how could Dang Li, who is the general, not know?

But he was really happy to see this.

Even if the Grand Marshal was indeed attacked on the way and was defeated and killed, it would be even better!

At that time, no matter whether the Grand Marshal died in battle or not, as long as he was defeated, he would lose all his prestige. The only person in the court who was qualified to command troops was naturally the only one who was qualified to command troops. This was a general who had been completely wiped out by the arrogant Grand Marshal!

As for juniors like Han Xin, how can they be qualified to take on such heavy responsibilities at this time of crisis?

By then, the one who will re-take charge of the country's troops will inevitably be the General Dang Li, not the Minister of War Han Xin!

As for what Han Xin said about the defeat of the army and the danger of the Dali Kingdom, in Dang Li's opinion, it was simply alarmist and intimidating His Majesty!

After all, that is a whole million army. How can it be wiped out by the enemy in one battle?

Even if there is a slight damage, the remaining hundreds of thousands of people under their own control will be enough to defend the enemy outside the country!

What's more, if the war is in a tight position, with the national strength of Dali, it will inevitably recruit troops again. Within a few months, hundreds of thousands of people will continue to be put into the battlefield, but how can there be the danger of destroying the country?

In Dang Li's opinion, the reason why Han Xin deliberately exaggerated was obviously to mislead His Majesty and seek profit for himself...

At this moment, Dang Li looked at Han Xin, who was forced into a dead end by his words and had to remain silent, and suddenly felt a sense of mutual appreciation.

After all, although they have different political views, their actions are different and very similar!

The reason why the two of them argued in court at this moment was that they were both stolen by the mountain above their heads for too long...

Nowadays, one must take the opportunity to make a profit for oneself and find ways to overthrow the oppression and rule of the mountains above one’s head!

Just as Dang Li was thinking and couldn't help but sigh, the atmosphere in the hall also became depressed and heavy with Han Xin's silence.

After a long stalemate, the Holy Emperor of Destiny finally sighed deeply and waved his hand.

"Let's retreat, Han Aiqing stay for the time being..."

Hearing this, all the court officials said withdrew, and General Dang Li was even more happy, knowing that he was finally better in this extremely fierce court debate!

After all, the only one who opposed the army's return to aid was Han Xin, the Minister of War. Even His Majesty, the Holy Emperor, stood faintly on his side and was unwilling to bet on his own life and safety.

In this situation, what will Han Xin win?!

Now His Majesty has stopped discussing matters and has dismissed everyone, leaving Han Xin alone in the hall.

This approach is actually a tendency to recall the front-line army and protect the king!

Thinking of this, Dang Li felt relieved and immediately left without changing his expression.

However, when the gate of the Huangji Hall behind him was slowly closed, the ministers who had just retired did not go far. On the contrary, the moment General Dang Li stepped out, they all surrounded him with great enthusiasm...

...

"Mencius said: Time is not as good as the place, and place is not as good as the people!

Dali occupies all the combination of the right time and place, but lacks the harmony of people!

In the court, there is a simple place to eat and a party fight!

The pillar of a country is to plan first, and the country is to plan later!

Such a harmonious relationship is a time of great struggle, and it is in danger of overturning!”
