Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this. Although Princess Hui'an's method of dealing with Beiming Kingdom was a bit shameless, it was indeed a way to hold back Beiming Kingdom and weaken Beiming Kingdom.
As for her statement that Dongling Kingdom and Xihua Kingdom would not send troops, no one agreed with her.
They felt in their hearts that Dongling Kingdom and Xihua Kingdom would definitely take this opportunity to send troops.
Including the Minister of War, there is absolutely an 80% chance that Dongling and Xihua will send troops. After all, such an opportunity is too rare.
Nalan Kingdom is located in the center of the four countries. If the four countries send troops at the same time and one person divides several cities of Nalan Kingdom, the country's strength will be greatly improved.
After all, the Nalan Kingdom has a flat terrain and many fertile fields, so he believes that what they should discuss is how Nalan Kingdom should respond if the four countries send troops at the same time, rather than discussing the situation where Xihua Kingdom and Dongling Kingdom will not send troops.
Fortunately, because Nalan Kingdom is surrounded by mountains and has a small side facing the sea, this geographical location protects the entire Nalan Kingdom very well, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
It was not easy for the four countries to capture Nalan Kingdom in a short while.
Therefore, the Minister of War thinks that all we need to do is think of a way to deal with the four countries going to war at the same time!
We can't expect that Xihua Kingdom and Dongling Kingdom will not send troops!
Seeing that no one spoke, Nuan Nuan knew that they did not agree with what he said.
The emperor looked at Nalan Jinnian: "Seventeenth Emperor brother, what do you think?"
Nalan Jinnian had already heard Wen Nuan talk about her thoughts. His thoughts were similar to Nuan Wen's, but Nalan Jinnian was more familiar with the Four Kingdoms than Wen Nuan, especially the terrain in the area where Beiming Country was adjacent to Nalan Country. Familiar, when he was young, he had already figured out how to deal with the situation one day when the world was in chaos.
Wen Nuan is good at understanding people's hearts. With her arrangement, Dongling Kingdom and Xihua Kingdom will indeed not take action for a while, but Nalan Jinnian understands the emperor better than Wen Nuan.
The imperial brother does not want to fight. At this moment, he also hopes to just clean up the Southern Xinjiang country, let the Southern Xinjiang country surrender, cede the territory and pay compensation, and then that's it!
He was even more worried about sending a large army to suppress the four countries, and the four countries launched a war together to deal with the Nalan Kingdom. If the Nalan Kingdom was destroyed by the emperor's brother, he would never want to see it!
So it’s useless to say more now!
Nalan Jinnian only said: "My brother and Princess Hui'an said the same thing."
Emperor: "......"
The emperor couldn't help but wonder if he was really old and had no fighting spirit at all. Why were Princess Hui'an and the Seventeenth Emperor so warlike
The emperor looked at the Minister of War: "My dear, what do you think?"
After hearing this, the Minister of War said: "Wei Chen also thinks that we should secretly mobilize troops and horses to start protecting the four borders! Fifty thousand troops and horses are enough. These troops and horses are hidden, as long as the three countries of Beiming, Dongling and Xihua do not have We don't have to take action if there is any abnormal movement. As long as they have any abnormal movement, we will take action immediately and catch them off guard. Delay for some time and let the reinforcements arrive. Then the imperial court will have enough troops left to deal with the Southern Border Kingdom."
The emperor nodded: "This is a good idea."
Princess Hui'an said that the army would suppress the border. Although her analysis made sense, who could guarantee that Dongling and Xihua would not send troops
The emperor was also worried that Dongling and Xihua would use this as an excuse to start a war.
At least now Dongling Kingdom and Xihua Kingdom have no excuse to send troops!
The emperor knows that with the current strength of the Nalan Kingdom, it is absolutely impossible for one country to resist the four countries!
The Nalan Kingdom must not be destroyed. After a few years, the Nalan Kingdom will be strong enough, and the seventeenth emperor's younger brother will be much smarter than him in both governance and military affairs. Let's dominate the world by then!
Anyway, the four countries are eyeing Nalan Kingdom, and the emperor also knows that this day will come. The emperor only hopes to try his best to make this day come later, so that Nalan Kingdom has time to prepare and improve its strength!
With the current national strength of the Nalan Kingdom, he thought it was impossible to cope with it.
The emperor looked at Wen Nuan and Nalan Jinnian: "Seventeenth emperor brother, what do Princess Hui'an think of this?"
As soon as Nuan Nuan heard this, he knew that the emperor did not want to take this opportunity to take over Southern Xinjiang.
In other words, the emperor has no ambition to make great achievements and dominate the world. He just wants to protect his own one-third of an acre, be the emperor of Nalan Kingdom, and then be famous throughout the ages. He didn't want future generations to say that he was an overlord or something like that.
Wanting to understand the emperor's thoughts, Wen Nuan didn't say that sending tens of thousands of troops secretly would have different effects than sending an army of 100,000 openly and openly.
This clearly told the people of other countries that their Nalan country was not strong enough to dare to fight against the four countries at the same time, but they were just on guard against them sending troops to delay time.
But Wen Nuan knew that the emperor had something to worry about. He was responsible for the safety and livelihood of all the people in Nalan Kingdom, and the stability of the entire country. He couldn't afford to lose!
Moreover, the emperor is kind-hearted by nature, not wary, and even easily satisfied. He regards making Nalan Kingdom prosperous and the people live and work in peace and contentment as his ultimate goal in life. If you let him suddenly be so strong, challenge the four countries at the same time and unify the world, he will not be able to do such a major thing that changes his life goal unless he has to. He will not take action unless the Four Kingdoms really reach his ultimate goal of destroying him.
It's not just the emperor who is like this. Wen Nuan found that many of the ministers of Nalan Kingdom are like this. They are all ambitious people who like to take care of their own three-quarter acres of land. Of course, others will snatch his three-quarters of land. The land is not good, but they never think of provoking other countries to mine some land.
This probably started with Emperor Taizu! Otherwise, where would the three vassal states come from? That's because Emperor Taizu is willing to help others! Nalan Jinnian nodded: "That's okay, then let's do it!"
Nalan Jinnian had known this result for a long time.
Wen Nuan also nodded: "The emperor is really a good emperor who loves his people like his own son!"
This time the warmth cannot express the wisdom of the emperor!
I can only praise him as a good emperor who loves his people like his own son.
No one is perfect.
When the emperor saw the two people saying this, he felt relieved. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Princess Hui'an is so complimentary. The Seventeenth Emperor's brother secretly mobilized 50,000 troops to go to Beiming, Dongling, and Xihua. I will leave the border affairs to you!"
Nalan Jinnian knew that the emperor would leave this matter to him, so he did not argue with reason. In his opinion, fifty thousand was barely enough to handle. He nodded: "My brother, I accept the order!"
With one thing resolved, the emperor felt better. He smiled and said, "Everyone has breakfast first! The breakfast is already cold!"
As for taking advantage of the opportunity to capture Southern Xinjiang? It's better to wait until news of the war situation in southern Xinjiang comes to think about this matter, the emperor thought to himself.
