Chapter 133: Alliances and Alliances

royal palace.

Hall of Supreme Harmony!
After Yu Ke’s order was issued.

"The general will obey your orders!"

All the generals in the hall responded like thunder with excited expressions. No one would doubt the military order of the Shao Bao.

Go straight to Huanglong Mansion!
It has always been the long-cherished wish of the Lu family army. Now that Shao Bao has returned, the decisive battle has finally begun after an absence of fifteen years.

Morale is high!
Dou Gu figured out the key, and said slowly:
"The young master has been practicing in seclusion for fifteen years. His first battle out of seclusion frightened the four nations!"

Zhou Cheng, a man of meticulous mind, had already figured out some of Shao Bao's plans, but he still couldn't hide his doubts:

How can Shaobao make such a determination?
The other three countries dare not act rashly and invade our capital?
As for Zhou Jinyu, his thoughts were still immersed in the sudden change, like a mess.

The order to go north was like a thunderclap, which made her uneasy.

The safety of Kyoto, the holy tombs, and millions of people all hang in the balance.

Abandon the capital and allow Qianyuan and Han Chu to approach!
Kyoto, how can we give up so easily?

She thought to herself that if Qian Yuan and Han Chu were allowed to succeed, the North would be in an irretrievable situation, attacked from all sides, and the situation would be worrying.

This doesn't seem to be a good idea no matter how you look at it.

Zhou Jinyu's thoughts involuntarily drifted towards Lu Chen, and an inexplicable worry surged in her heart.

She suddenly realized why she started to worry about Lu Chen.
Just sigh!
Now they are both in the same boat, their destinies tied together.

Yu Ke turned his gaze to Feng Haiping and said:
"Start preparing. The army will set out at dawn tomorrow."

"As ordered!"

The hall was filled with uniform responses, and then Feng Haiping led a group of generals and hurried away.

There are only a few people left in the temple!
Yu Ke chose to set out at dawn, and he also had some thoughts!
One reason is to allow the army to fully rest and recuperate.

Secondly, there is a saying “let the news fly for a while”.

He wanted to see the world's reaction to this move, or rather the reaction of the four countries!
Observe the changes and formulate strategies.

A smile appeared on Yu Ke's face.

The "immersive feeling" of personal participation is really strong.

He looked around the hall again, his eyes falling on the remaining three people.

Dou Gu, the military advisor and chief academician, was extremely intelligent and provided advice to the Lu family army.

Li Xuedian, who is in charge of baggage transport, is an important official in the army, although he does not show his influence.

And the owner of Penglai Pavilion who just arrived exhausted.

Liu Wen!
He bowed, his humility carrying a bit of extraordinary grace:
"Liu Wen pays his respects to Shao Bao."

Yu Ke nodded slightly.

In the Lu family army, there are many military generals and brave generals, but there are very few civil officials!
Dou Gu was known for his open strategies and his ability to grasp the overall situation.

Liu Wen is like an undercurrent lurking underwater, good at using conspiracy, but the word "conspiracy" here is not derogatory, but refers to extraordinary strategies that have to be taken in order to achieve higher goals.

In troubled times, achieving great things often requires the combination of yin and yang.

In addition to the "personal brother" Lu Yu and the "personal eunuch" Yu Xu were present.

There were also Zhou Cheng and Zhou Jinyu in the hall.

Yu Ke knows that time is running out!
The time he had to participate in person was limited, so he simply stood up and walked to a desk in a corner of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

He already had a plan in mind and was determined to maximize the effect of this "personal participation" as much as possible within the limited time.

Several people followed silently!
"Bring it here, paper, pen and ink."

Yu Ke gave the order in a deep voice, and upon hearing it, the palace maids and eunuchs in the hall hurried into action, swiftly preparing everything and respectfully placing the four treasures of the study on the desk.

Yu Ke raised his head slightly, his eyes penetrating the window lattice.

There was only one last ray of afterglow left in the sky, which was about to disappear into the mountains and valleys.

The day has come to an end!
A maiden had already walked into the main hall of the palace and began to blow out the lights at the four corners of the palace.

For a moment the lights went out!
Several people gathered around the desk. Yu Xu held up a candle light considerately, and the warm orange light illuminated the large desk and several white papers in front of them.

Zhou Jinyu was obedient and gently grinding the ink!
Yu Ke thought silently!
The hall seemed quiet.

A question had been lingering in Zhou Cheng's mind for a long time, but he could not find the answer.

finally!
He could not hold back and broke the silence by saying, "Master Bao, I have always had a question in my mind. How do you determine that the other four countries will not easily take Kyoto?"

Yu Ke looked at Zhou Cheng, the Prince Jing of Jiangbei.

Zhou Cheng only felt that the young guard's eyes were extremely bright under the candlelight, as if they could see through people's hearts and evil minds, and his heart tightened involuntarily.

Yu Ke smiled faintly, his tone revealing a kind of indifference that comes from being able to see through the world:

"Because that's what people all over the world want!"

He shook his head slightly and continued, "This battle cannot be fought."

at this time!
Wu Ying has appointed Gongsun Pingxi as prime minister.

Tuoba Shu placed great emphasis on Gu Yi.

Gongsun Zhongshu devoted himself to recuperation.

Yuwen Yan recommended Li Xian as Grand Marshal.

What are the four countries seeking?
Yu Ke picked up the pen and lightly touched the white paper with the tip of the pen.

He slowly wrote down the word "Dazhi"!
The two words were so powerful that they could be seen through the paper, steady and powerful.

Seeing this, Liu Wen, Dou Gu and others nodded slowly.

In today's world, Qianyuan is the most powerful, followed by Beifeng and Daqing, while Chu and Han are relatively weak.

However, even the powerful Qianyuan was unable to annex the other four countries on its own, and might instead provoke joint resistance from other countries.

Yu Ke added four more words under the word "Dazhi"!
"Unite the people!"

Chu and Han have joined forces, Beifeng has also formed an alliance with Chu and Han, while Qianyuan has formed an alliance with Hexi.

Until now!
The four countries are uniting to drive Daqing south of the Yangtze River.

In this chaotic world, there are no eternal enemies or eternal friends, only eternal interests and ever-changing situations.

Yu Ke slowly wrote the word "Chao Ling" next to "Hezong Lianhe".

Just two words focused everyone's attention on the capital of Daqing.

Chaoling, a city with a unique geographical location and extraordinary strategic significance, instantly became the focus of the entire situation.

Chaoling is not only the political heart of Daqing, but also the vital throat connecting the four countries.

It is surrounded by mountains!
The naturally formed defensive barrier is like a huge pocket, tightly wrapping the Jiangnan area, making it an important military town that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The Jiangnan region, with its abundant products, fertile land and prosperous economy, has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times and has the reputation of being the "land of fish and rice".

There is also a famous saying that "When the tomb of the emperor is prosperous, the whole world is content."

Once a country is able to occupy Chaoling, it means that it has mastered the rich resources and strategic depth of Jiangnan, and can attack or defend, thus gaining an absolute advantage in the dispute among the four countries.

There is an old saying in the north: "He who controls Chaozhou will be the leader of the world!"

Jiangnan’s original name was Chaozhou.

therefore!
The Chaoling Mausoleum became the focus of competition among the four countries. Every country was eager to take it into its possession, but was also afraid that it would fall into the hands of other countries.

then!
During the "great governance" of the four countries and the "vertical and horizontal alliances", the four countries surrounded Chaoling.

The four countries were both wary of each other and secretly competing with each other.

Black and white!
Just a few words!
Zhou Jinyu, standing aside, could already feel the great trend of the world coming at him. He felt heavy-hearted, yet inexplicably a sense of heroism arose in his heart!
This was a feeling she had never experienced before. Her previous husband Zhou Zhen was just a cowardly emperor who couldn't even breathe in the party struggles in the court.

How can we have the vision to cover all four countries?

In such a situation.

With a far-sighted vision, what he wrote on paper was "steeds of war, mountains and rivers."

She couldn't help but stare at the man holding the pen in a daze under the light.
