We are outnumbered in the first place, not to mention that everyone knows that the soldiers under General Shen are all experienced in hundreds of battles. They have fought bloody battlefields for many years. Everyone is the best among the best, and everyone can fight with the same strength. Ten enemies.
Not to mention that the capital's garrison only has more than 30,000 people, even if it were ten times more, it would be 300,000! I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand Shen Jiajun's offensive.
As soon as Shen's army launches its attack, the capital will be destroyed.

In the court hall, the noisy voices of the ministers turned into a mess and they were arguing endlessly.
Some advocate war, some advocate peace, and some say it is impossible.
Mo Chuan sat quietly on the dragon chair, watching the noisy ministers below, but said nothing.
"Your Majesty, I think we should make a decision quickly, and we can't delay it any longer!"
Wei Mohan was the first to come out of the queue, saluted Mo Chuan and said loudly.
As soon as he spoke, the noise began to slowly subside, and everyone's eyes turned to him.
Mo Chuan also looked at him and said slowly: "What do you think Wei Qing has to say?"
Wei Mohan looked solemn: "Your Majesty, although Shen Fang is brave and good at fighting, and the Shen family army is also famous all over the world, but once he was a minister, he should be a minister for life. He received the emperor's favor and did not want to serve the country. Instead, he had a great disrespect. , those acts of rebellion were really heinous and the crime should not be punished! The minister thought that his whole family should be taken down, taken to the city wall, and beheaded in front of the Shen family army, leaving no one alive to show the imperial power! "
He spoke forcefully and quickly won the approval of some ministers.
"That's right, that's right. If you run away, the monk can't escape from the temple. Shen Fang's whole family is in the capital. If he dares to rebel, we will kill him all over the house!"
Mo Chuan looked deeply at Wei Mohan and said calmly: "Among Shen Zanzang's family members in the city, there is only one queen. Does Wei Qing want me to take the queen to the city wall and behead her in public?"
When the ministers heard this, they immediately lowered their heads, and no one dared to agree.
"I don't dare, I didn't mean that." Wei Mohan also changed his tone immediately.
"What do you mean, Wei Qing?" Mo Chuan's face showed no expression, and there was no anger in his tone. However, the cold gaze fell on Wei Mohan's face, making him feel like a thorn in his back.
"I don't dare, I don't dare." He lowered his head and said repeatedly.
Coward, no future!
Many ministers cursed secretly in their hearts.
Another person came out, but it was Cheng Baiyi, the young minister of Dali Temple.
He said loudly: "Your Majesty, I think what Master Wei said is inappropriate."
Mo Chuan looked at him and said calmly: "What are your suggestions, Qing Cheng?"
Cheng Baiyi looked straight in the eyes and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "As we all know, General Shen is an expert in using troops. He has never been defeated in ten years. His Shen family army is even more famous, which makes the enemy frightened. No one in our court can match it, and the Shen family army suddenly The purpose of the siege is unclear, but it does not necessarily mean rebellion. If we act rashly and kill General Shen's family, it may anger the Shen family army. If General Shen has no intention of rebellion, but is provoked by this incident, maybe it will. He has a murderous intention. If the city is attacked, the emperor will be in danger and the people will be in danger! If I see this, it is better for the emperor to issue an edict to appease the Shen family army and let him continue to serve the royal family. This is the best plan. "
After he finished speaking, many ministers nodded in agreement, most of them were civil servants.
"Yes, yes, Master Cheng's words are reasonable. Please make a clear decision, Your Majesty."
