Chapter 206: The army gathers and has tens of thousands of soldiers
As soon as Zhang Liang finished speaking, Xiao He beside him could not help but speak up: "Mr. Zhang, this is wrong! Your Highness now has an army of 600,000 soldiers and a strong force. Why don't you march south directly to Huanglong and bring down the traitor Chu Zhenzhou?!"
"Capture Chu Zhenzhou? Your vision is too short-sighted!"
Han Xin stood up suddenly and said seriously, "In my opinion, we should first pacify the Central Plains, integrate the millions of troops of the Great Zhou, and then march westward, cross the Tianshan Mountains, and take all those small countries in the Western Regions into our pockets! I heard that there are countless beauties and countless rare treasures there."
Chu Yang looked at the three guys in front of him who were arguing with each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He originally just wanted to hear their opinions, but he didn't expect that these three people would give him a bigger problem.
Maybe they had already discussed it when the three of them got on the road!
"I have taken note of what the three gentlemen said."
Chu Yang coughed lightly, interrupting their argument. "This matter is of great importance, and we need to consider it carefully. You three are tired from the journey, so you should go and rest first."
Seeing that Chu Yang had made up his mind, the three said no more and stood up to say goodbye and leave.
After the three people left.
Chu Yang sat alone in the tent with a frown on his face.
He rubbed his temples and thought to himself, "Are these three guys deliberately giving me problems? It sounds easy to say, but how can it be so easy to put it into practice?"
"Xun Yu is still reliable!"
Chu Yang thought of Xun Yu who was far away in Japan, and a warm feeling rose in his heart. "He is mysterious, but he always gives the most effective suggestions."
but.
Chu Yang also knew that the suggestions put forward by Zhang Liang, Xiao He and Han Xin were not unfeasible.
However, he now needs to weigh the pros and cons and make the best choice.
In other words, as long as you don't act stupid, just listen to one person.
"It's hard to deal with too many civil officials!"
"It seems that we have to catch one person and try to get rid of him, otherwise this person will listen and that person will listen."
"What's the difference between me and Yuan Benchu, who was a minister for four generations?"
Chu Yang pondered secretly. He finally understood the disadvantages of having too many civil officials under him.
the other side.
The imperial palace in the capital of Japan.
The palace was filled with the rough chatter and laughter of the Great Zhou soldiers.
Sima Yi, dressed in a green shirt and waving a feather fan, looked at the magnificent palace in front of him and said lightly.
"Toyotomi Hideyoshi of Japan really knows how to enjoy life, but it's a pity that he has lost his country. What's the point of keeping all these gold, silver and jewels?"
"Mr. Sima, you are wrong,"
Zhou Yu, dressed in military uniform, strode in. "These gold, silver and jewelry are naturally used to reward the three armies! When we fight back to the Great Zhou, we will reward them according to their merits. These are all good things!"
Wang Meng was dressed in black and had a sword at his waist. He couldn't help laughing when he heard Zhou Yu's words.
"Mr. Zhou is right. Isn't it for the prosperity of the family that the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty risk their lives in the outside world?"
The three of them were talking.
A counselor in plain clothes walked in. It was Xun Yu.
"Mr. Xun, long time no see!"
When the three saw Xun Yu, they hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Xun Yu smiled slightly, looked at the three people in front of him, and nodded secretly in his heart.
Then he teased, "How could you three abandon the city and lead so many soldiers here without His Highness's order?"
The three of them looked at each other, and Wang Meng laughed and said, "Mr. Xun, you don't know this. His Highness is very smart and can foresee things. What we are doing is naturally part of His Highness's plan!"
"Oh? How do you say this?"
Xun Yu pretended to be confused and looked at Wang Meng with interest.
Sima Yi took over the conversation and explained: "Mr. Xun, think about it, although our army has occupied Yuenan and Dongying, its foundation is not stable."
"If we start a decisive battle with the princes in Qiongzhou and Yuenan Kingdom, it will definitely attract millions of troops from the Great Zhou."
"By then, Your Highness will be attacked from all sides and will be in danger."
"And now, we are leading our army to the capital of Japan, joining forces with you, sir, and gathering a million-strong army. We will attack the imperial city of Great Zhou at lightning speed and catch Chu Zhenzhou off guard. This is the key to breaking the deadlock!"
Zhou Yu also said: "That's right, we want to strike them back and let them know that we are not easy to mess with!"
Xun Yu listened to the three people's analysis and nodded repeatedly.
For a moment, I thought this was really an order from Chu Yang.
"Okay! In that case, let's plan carefully and try to decide the outcome in one battle!"
Xun Yu said firmly, "I wonder how many troops you have brought with you?"
"I brought an army of 250,000!" Sima Yi spoke first.
"I brought 200,000 navy soldiers!" Zhou Yu followed closely behind.
"I brought 300,000 troops!" Wang Meng said finally.
"it is good!"
When Xun Yu heard this number, he slammed the table excitedly and said, "I have 200,000 troops here, and 200,000 slaves from Japan. Now we have a million soldiers!"
"An army of one million?"
Zhou Yu took a deep breath. This was nearly half of the Great Zhou's military force. With this kind of strength, there was no need to worry about not being able to accomplish great things.
"Hahaha, now let's see how arrogant Chu Zhenzhou can be!"
Wang Meng laughed excitedly.
at the same time.
The Xiongnu border is thousands of miles away.
Chu Yang was standing on the completed city wall, gazing into the distance.
"Your Highness, Mr. Xun's letter."
A personal soldier quickly walked up to Chu Yang and respectfully handed him a letter.
Chu Yang took the letter, unfolded it, and immediately frowned.
In the letter, Xun Yu reported the situation in Japan in detail and proposed a bold plan: to gather a million troops to attack the imperial city of the Great Zhou!
"My goodness, this Xun Yu wants to kill me!"
After reading the letter, Chu Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He originally thought that Xun Yu would proceed step by step and consolidate the rule of Japan and Yuenan Kingdom first. He did not expect that he would be so impatient and want to directly attack the imperial city of Da Zhou!
"Your Highness, this..."
Suo Si, who was standing by, noticed that Chu Yang looked unhappy and asked cautiously.
"nothing,"
Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "Tell Xun Yu not to worry and just keep stationing troops in the capital of Dongying. My brothers won't be able to get there in a short time."
"Yes." Suo Si took the order and left.
Chu Yang looked at the letter in his hand, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
He knew that although Xun Yu's plan was bold, it was not without the possibility of success.
After all, he now has a million troops at his command.
As for Chu Zhenzhou, although he has a million elite soldiers, he came here to rebel, and the morale of his troops is unstable. If he can win the battle quickly, there is still hope of victory.
"Your Highness, are you worried about the movements of your brothers?"
Suddenly, a hearty laugh came from behind Chu Yang.
Chu Yang turned his head and saw Zhang Liang, Xiao He and Han Xin striding towards him.
