In more than a month, the emperor mobilized all the troops. Except for the 500,000 troops in the border areas, the emperor mobilized 700,000 troops elsewhere.
South Vietnam has two million troops as a whole, but during this special period, it is impossible to mobilize all the troops in one place. Otherwise, if the surrounding small countries launch an attack, South Vietnam will suffer a big loss, or rebels may appear in some areas. Likewise, It will cause chaos in the world.
So the emperor sent two troops directly to the north.
The first force was the Tongming Temple team headed by Li Yuguo, with a total of two thousand people. They attacked as a sharp blade and a special attack team.
The other group was led by the imperial general's 700,000 troops to attack the northern border.
In the palace, there was a burly middle-aged man beside the emperor. The emperor said: "Hao Nanren, this time you will be the general marshal of this 700,000-strong army. When Taiwei Ye and others are eliminated, you will be the next one." Lieutenant."
When the stubble-faced Hao Nanren heard this, his whole body trembled with excitement. He quickly clasped his fists and said, "Long live my emperor! I will definitely live up to my mission!"
"There is one more thing." The emperor said. He stood up and put a book behind his back. "No matter whether he succeeds or not, he will kill Li Huguo when he returns to the capital!"
"Your Majesty, Li Hugo and Princess Mingyue went together. Could it be that even Princess Mingyue..." Hao Nanren was confused.
The emperor laughed heartily, his eyes concealing ferocity: "Li Huguo is a ferocious tiger with sharp claws and teeth, capable of killing people, and he is both wise and brave. But such a ferocious tiger is too sharp and makes it difficult for me to sleep and eat well by my side... If he Even if he dies, I can sleep peacefully... His role will last until the Battle of Taiwei."
Eunuch Cao, the great eunuch next to him, said: "General Hao, the emperor's intention is obvious enough. Princess Mingyue is just the adopted daughter of the emperor. When the time comes, the two of them will die gloriously on the battlefield. This will already be a great honor..."
"I will obey your orders!" Hao Nanren clasped his fists and left.
After Hao Nanren left, the emperor turned around and said, "Little Caozi, am I too cruel? After all, Li Yuguo fought for me for more than a month."
"Not cruel at all. When Li Huguo dies in battle, it will be a great honor for the emperor to give him a posthumous title..." Eunuch Cao said, "It's just that I don't know why your majesty suddenly changed his mind and wanted to kill this person." ?”
"There is news from the front line that the opponent's military advisor is not dead. The military advisor is Bai Long. Now Bai Long has changed his name to Baima. This man is super resourceful and a talented person. But he can leave the capital because Li Yuguo must be thinking about his former classmates. It is because of love that it is convenient for him... In addition, Li Huguo looks so much like my imperial brother back then. Every time I see him, I feel very uneasy..." the emperor said.
His status was not obtained in an honest manner, so he has been having nightmares over the years. Every time in the nightmare, he would see that person. When Li Huguo met the saint for the first time, the emperor was so shocked that he could not speak. , because they look too much alike.
But the emperor knew that almost all the people related to that person had been executed, so Li Hugo should have nothing to do with that person.
As the saying goes, it is better to believe what is there than what is not, so for the sake of safety, the emperor decided to get rid of Li Huguo.
A person with mediocre talents can actually reassure the emperor, but Li Huguo has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements and cracked many cases in more than a year. Such a talent will not stay under others for a long time.
…
On the other side, White Horse has arrived at the border. After crossing the hilltop, White Horse saw densely packed military tents in the distance, and there was a chasm across the horizon in the distance.
There are quite a lot of troops around, some are patrolling, some are training, and more people are cooking, because it is meal time now, and it is the time to bury the pot and make rice.
"Damn it!" Ye Feng was dressed in pieces. After all, traveling all the way was not easy. It could be said that the two of them had experienced a month of torture before they arrived in the northern border. Their clothes were in disarray.
"Let's go, we're already here..." White Horse said.
Suddenly, several guards appeared from behind the white horse and surrounded the white horse. The guard said: "Who are you? Are you a spy?! How dare you spy on the military here?"
"Wait a minute, you are brave!" Ye Feng took out a jade plaque from his waist. When the patrols saw the jade plaque, they all knelt down: "Your Highness!"
In the military tent, Ye Feng and Baima sat on tiger-skin chairs, slurping the noodles in the bowl. Ye Feng held chopsticks in one hand and a roasted leg of lamb in the other, swallowing fiercely. After all, I haven’t eaten in seven days.
Because the grassland in the north was so vast that it was impossible to see the edge at first glance, the two of them got lost. Later, with the help of herdsmen, they finally found the road.
"You said that all our mansions in the capital have been copied by that dog emperor?" said a resolute-looking woman. She is Ye Feng's eldest sister, Ye Ling. General.
Ye Feng swallowed the mutton in his mouth with difficulty and said, "Sister, brother, I almost couldn't see you. Where is dad?"
"He and the Second Highness went on patrol. I just went to inform them." Ye Ling said, she looked at the white horse, "This thin man is..."
"He is the eldest prince's counselor." Ye Feng said.
"Something has happened to the master, and as a counselor, he actually made a fuss?" An angry shout came from outside the tent, and a two-meter-tall giant man walked in with a spear. He had long hair and a very domineering appearance. , even covered in a bear's skin.
The densely packed knife marks and sword wounds on the big man's skin are jaw-dropping to see. There is almost no intact skin. There is an eyepatch on the strong and domineering face. Obviously, the big man's left eye is gone, but the remaining one is The eyes are full of blood and murderous intent.
The big man is Ye Feng's father, Lieutenant Ye Kuang.
Baima put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands and said slowly: "I am not escaping privately, but I want to tell you the news. If I and Lord Taiwei said as you said, for the sake of loyalty, I would not leave until I died. How do you know what is happening in the capital? I'm afraid that the Emperor's men have already attacked, and by then the Taiwei will be beaten to pieces. Is this what you want to see, Mr. Taiwei?"
"Insolent! How can our Northern Army be as unbearable as you say?" Ye Kuang shouted angrily.
Not to be outdone, Baima added, "Taiwei, if the imperial court cuts off your food and grass first, and then unites the northern countries to attack the northern border, how many countries do you think the 500,000-strong army here can deal with?"
