Chapter 488
Now when they heard the voice of the summons, everyone was excited.

Who knows, this King Ding used to fight against South Vietnam and retreated 70 enemy troops, but now only 60, it must be no problem.

But when everyone saw King Ding walking in, they couldn't help but gasp in their hearts.

He looked calm, but his eyes were serious.

Step by step, he walked towards the superior prince, with firm steps and a clear attitude.

With him here, there is a candidate for the Marshal for this battle in the Southwest.

It's just that his body can really support it?
No one knows.

After all, he had been ill for many years, and he was said to be cured some time ago, but he hadn't seen him go out much. Looking at his complexion now, he was still not as rosy as the healthy man, let alone compared with the soldiers in the army.

"Why is Uncle Ding here?"

"Prince, I heard news about the Southwest in the mansion, so I came to see it."

"Uncle Wang has made great military exploits for Da Jin, but now that Nanyue and Jiao Ren are about to go to war again, they simply don't pay attention to Da Jin, so they are discussing who to send right now!"

"Well, since this king is here, I just want to tell the prince, let me go."

The prince frowned, but his heart was filled with joy.

"But Uncle Wang, your body..."

"It's okay, going to the southwest is not a problem. With this king here, not to mention Jiao Rin, Nanyue will be more afraid, so that the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty will have fewer casualties. What's more, all the kings in King Ding's army have been there for so many years." Familiar with it, I’m afraid it’s inappropriate to send a general who doesn’t know it rashly. It will be much more troublesome if the fighter is delayed.”

That's right, Prince Ding has recuperated in the capital for many years, and he can still get many people's notes. It's nothing more than that he has the trump card of King Ding's army in his hand.

When this kind of family and country is in great trouble, if he doesn't stand up, it will be abnormal.

So he looked at the people of his own faction, and soon those ministers understood, and immediately spoke.

"Your Highness, what the lord is doing is righteous. What's more, what the lord said is right. I'm afraid it will be counterproductive to send unfamiliar generals. If you don't, let the lord go. With him, I believe Nanyue and Jiao Randing Don’t dare to act rashly, maybe the Southwest crisis can be resolved without a single soldier!”

As soon as he finished speaking, many people below followed suit.

It seems that if the prince doesn't agree, it means he doesn't care about friendship.

King Ding already knew the little Jiujiu in the hearts of these ministers and the prince, but he just didn't bother to expose it.

He himself was going to the southwest, so he just pretended not to see the eye contact between them.

Neither Bai Xiang nor Mr. Xu Ge said anything, they just stood where they were, not because they didn't want to help King Ding, but because they knew that once King Ding made a decision, it would be useless to say anything.

Moreover, they also felt that King Ding was the best candidate for the Southwest Campaign, and it would be fine to go there.

After all, outsiders thought that his health was not in good shape, but only they themselves knew how capable King Ding was.

So, they weren't very worried.

The prince pretended to do it as a last resort, and said reluctantly.

"Uncle Wang is righteous, on behalf of the people of the world, I thank you for coming forward. If that's the case, then Uncle Wang will go to the southwest in person, and then send a message to General Su, ordering him to lead an army of to rush to the rescue."

"Yes!"

Now there is no Wei Guogong and others in the court to make troubles, and the prince is eager to get some achievements to gain the recognition of the outside world, so no one is thinking about food and grass.

When Feng Hai was raising funds, he was also fast.

On the third day of Xiao Tingyi's departure, the grain and grass also headed southwest, and the person in charge of the escort was naturally the trustworthy Yang Zhao.

He was afraid of delaying the fighter plane, so he kept rushing.

Xu Lin led a team to guard by his side, firstly to prevent news from leaking, and secondly to prevent someone from causing trouble.

Although the crown prince will not take it lightly now, and is still waiting for the prince to go into battle in person and gain some good reputation, it is guaranteed that other people have other ideas.

After rushing to Xuzhou, they changed to Shangchi's fast boat, which was much safer than horse racing, not to mention several times faster.

In less than ten days, Xiao Tingyi was already standing in King Ding's tent.

People outside didn't know, but when Yang Xu saw Xiao Tingyi, he almost didn't cry.

"My lord!"

Looking at Yang Xu's dark eye circles, Xiao Tingyi knew that he must not have slept well these days, so he patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Go down and sleep for two hours, then talk back!"

"Yes!"

With the prince around, Yang Xu felt at ease even after sleeping all day.

And Xiao Tingyi has not been idle, since he entered the tent, he has been looking at the military map.

Xu Lin followed him, talking non-stop about the news from Princess Qianling and General Jiang Xun.

"This battle was proposed by the third prince Jiaoren. It has been deployed since the day he entered the Eastern Capital. He has been in contact with the sixth prince all these years, but not many, because of the palace banquet. It will be launched in advance, Nanyue is now the emperor's daughter, but according to the news from the princess, she seems to be restrained by the prince."

This has always been the case in South Vietnam, regardless of gender, the eldest son inherits the throne.

It was the king of Nanyue who fought against him back then, but now the father of the empress dowager has been ill since the war, so the empress dowager is in charge of all important matters in the court.

It is the same reason as today's Dajin has a prince to supervise the country.

It's just that they didn't know much about the queen's wife's husband before.

"Check, find out the situation of this person one by one, and tell Qianling by the way, if there is a chance to meet this empress dowager, I want to know what she really thinks."

If it was true as Princess Qianling speculated, the Crown Princess did not want to go to war, then there would be a great chance of turning this matter around.

The best way to deal with this kind of alliance where everyone wants to belong to him is to break through from within.

Naturally, the alliance will only be formed if there is a collusion of interests. What if the interests disappear, or the balance of interests is tilted towards one side?

Then this so-called alliance fell apart in the blink of an eye.

It was getting dark, but the rules in this army were strict, and it didn't take long for them to set up sentries to stand guard.

For decades, no one in King Ding's army dared to be lazy.

Under the night, King Ding and his party quietly left the tent of the military camp again. What he was going to find now was Wen Zhonghe.

Mr. Wen is sorting out the food, cloth, and other supplies left after the disaster relief these days in the study, and he also forgets to sleep and eat.

Mrs. Wen said it several times, but he was still sorting it out.

When Xiao Tingyi suddenly appeared, Wen Zhonghe was startled.

He has been an official in Shuzhou for many years, so he naturally knew about the defeat of King Ding's army in South Vietnam. Just put it down.
