The horses galloped all the way, except for sending one person to notify the group of secret guards who were still in Zuixian Tower, asking them to hide themselves, sneak out of the city, and then meet up with him.
Zhong Yu and his party, however, used the token they had just received from Lord Yan Chun to open the closed gate of the capital city and rode their horses far away towards the north.
"Chirp!" A sharp and shrill chirp of an eagle filled the air with the clouds and caused a flurry of birds to fly.
On Zhong Yu's shoulder, he saw a majestic condor flying high into the sky. On its golden talons, there was a small scroll, flying towards the northern imperial kingdom.
On the cliff, the horse stood still.
"Your Majesty, do we really want to attack Yan State so soon? Will this arouse the vigilance of the other six countries?" Zhao Yun was a little worried.
"We have to do it as early as possible. Although our strength is slightly insufficient, the whole country can still gather his 300,000 troops. Compared with Qin's million-strong army, Qi and Chu's 800,000 troops are somewhat insufficient. But to deal with it This is a weak army of 300,000. With our army's elite and sufficient combat readiness, and now with this order, it is easy to do it!" He raised the scroll in his hand, which contained the two names of Yan Chunjun. With the orders written by people, with this, I can easily swallow the entire Liaodong.
"Your Majesty is right. With this order, we only need 100,000 troops to go south and annex Liaodong. By then, the 300,000 people and 80,000 troops in Liaodong can become subjects of our great imperial kingdom and contribute to our great empire. The imperial government has used it!" Zhang Fei has always been warlike, so naturally he would not disapprove of this order.
"An army of 100,000 people can capture Liaodong, but if you want to go further west and advance to more places in the Yan Kingdom, an army of 100,000 people is far from enough!" Zhong Yuyi smiled and pointed out.
"Could it be that Your Majesty wants to destroy the Yan State in one fell swoop? Even if we can break through Liaodong without any losses, it will be difficult to be destroyed by surprise! After all, there is still an army of nearly 200,000 in the direction of the capital of the Yan State, not to mention counterattack , Even if we defend the city with all our strength, we still can't attack their capital!" Zhao Yun thought of his majesty's past achievements, and couldn't help but feel worried, and persuaded.
"Don't worry, Zilong. Although I am a little arrogant, I am not ignorant. This time I do not intend to destroy the Yan State in one fell swoop. Instead, I intend to take over the three counties in the eastern part of the Yan State, Liaodong, Liaoxi, and Youbeiping. I will destroy the Yan State in one fell swoop. The strength has been weakened to the current level of South Korea, and it can no longer pose a threat to our country!" Zhong Yu slowly said his plan, which made Zhao Yun and others less worried.
"But Your Majesty, if you do this, will you completely anger the Yan State? After all, this is half of their land. Even if these three counties are vast and sparsely populated, they still have nearly 1/3 of the population of the Yan State, right? Just give it up!" Although I heard that His Majesty did not intend to destroy the Yan Kingdom, I was still surprised when I heard His Majesty's plan!
"So this is the reason why I want to bring more troops. This time I plan to mobilize 200,000 people. I will take advantage of Yan State's unpreparedness and quickly attack these three counties. I will directly coerce the troops of the three counties to surrender, and with the main force of our country, Arrive at the capital of the Yan Kingdom and use your majestic power to intimidate the Yan Kingdom into submission!" Zhong Yu said with a domineering look.
In the three eastern counties of Yan State, there are 80,000 troops in Liaodong, and in the two counties in western Liaoning and Beiping, there are also 20,000 to 30,000 troops garrisoned, totaling 110,000 to 120,000. Withdrawing 100,000 from it, he left another 50,000 troops to garrison the three counties, and then 250,000 troops attacked Yandu.
At this time, even if Yan State exhausts all its young men, it can only mobilize 200,000 men at most. If there are many good men and women, how can it be the opponent of an army of 250,000 men? When the time comes, he will plunder the capital of Yan, plunder the population of Yan, and return to western Liaoning.
Then he intimidated the cowardly king of Yan State and the fatuous Lord Yan Chun to make them agree to their current status and strength, and the fact that the three eastern counties were occupied.
With its current army of 250,000, Yan State will definitely not dare to take the initiative to attack. With more threats, it is an established fact that it will be unable to retreat.
But for all of this, you still need to have an elite army, attack all the way, attack at the fastest speed, defeat the Yan State's army that comes to attack and block it, and give the Yan State an illusion that the enemy's army is extremely powerful and will never be your own. The army can be compared.
By then, he can become famous all over the world and let the entire Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period know that a great country has risen in the north that is comparable to the Chu and Qin Kingdoms. Its military strength is strong, its strength is powerful, and its territory is vast and endless, no less than Qin and Chu.
You can also use this reputation to recruit talents from all over the world and collect people with strong martial arts or outstanding talents to serve your country.
Especially for the top experts, the only thing about their country that is weaker than the other six countries.
There are estimated to be more than 200 first-rate masters of the fourth level in the world, including hundreds of people from various countries.
There are nearly a hundred masters left living in the world, either belonging to various school gangs, or wandering alone.
If I can win over a school of thought, or seduce those who are scattered in the world with glory and wealth, and make them work for me, then the top power of my kingdom will definitely increase sharply in a short period of time.
… …
Liaoxi County, its northernmost part, originally belonged to Chifeng, a region in East Lake.
At this moment, a majestic city has been built in this place with extremely complete facilities. Tens of thousands of people live and work here in peace and contentment and build new homes.
However, none of this is the most special thing about him. There are places like this all over the imperial kingdom, so it is not surprising.
The reason why he is specifically mentioned is that this county town called Chifeng has already stationed 50,000 of his troops, all of which are used by the imperial government to defend the Yan Kingdom and prepare for the southern invasion of the Yan Kingdom in the future.
At this moment, in this heavily guarded and majestic military camp, an eagle hovered above his sky and sounded several times.
From an inconspicuous tent in the military camp, a man in strange clothes walked out. He put his index finger and thumb into his mouth and blew a long whistle to attract the eagle.
The man untied a scroll from the eagle's leg and did not check it on his own initiative. Instead, he quickly released the eagle and ran towards the Chinese army's tent.
The eagle circled in the air a few times again, flapped its wings and flew towards its other destination.
One day later, in Tongliao City, the northernmost part of Liaodong Province and the southern border of the Imperial Kingdom, the guard in the city also received the scroll brought by this eagle.
In the two cities, the troops that had just arrived for less than a month began to move again. Under the orders of the officers, they put on their armor again, held their spears, and rode their strong horses towards the two cities. They marched to the Yan State in the south.
The eagle also arrived at its last destination, the current temporary capital of the imperial kingdom, Changchun City.
