Chapter 340: To go into battle, immediately set off

The news about the front line battle came too sudden. However, before this, the palace ministers were only arguing about trivial matters, when suddenly, a palace guard outside the imperial hall shouted: “Urgent news from 800 miles!”

Urgent news from 800 miles!

Upon hearing these words, the palace ministers immediately shut their mouth. The atmosphere inside the imperial hall drastically changed. The palace minister’s looked at each other with a heavy face… …

They all felt that this urgent news from the battlefield is bad.

“Come!” The emperor’s hand also shook.

The efficiency of the palace guard was extremely high. The emperor’s words just fell, but they already a.s.sisted the soldier who came to deliver the news, to come in. The soldier kneels on the floor and handed the battle report with reddened eyes.

“Huangshang, Eminent Xu was a.s.sa.s.sinated and died in the camp. Our army was defeated, but the Northern Country didn’t stop at that. Our army lost three cities.”

“What?” With such a shocking report, several palace ministers couldn’t stop themselves from shouting: “Eminent Xu is dead?”

“Our army lost three cities?”

The emperor’s face became pale in shock and quickly took the report to the eunuch’s hand. When he read the content, his facial expression became more and more ugly. He grabbed the handrail on his dragon chair and yelled: “Northern Country, good, good, you are really good!” You actually used martial G.o.ds? This is simply shameless.

“Huangshang, please calm down.” When the palace ministers saw the emperor was very angry, they all hurriedly kneel on the floor.

“Calm down? How do you expect zhen to calm down in this state? Even with nearly millions of troops, they did not only fail to stop the Northern Country’s attack but also lost three cities. What is the use of raising this group of waste?” In this war, he spent a lot of money and effort to give them foods and weapons. Although he used this war for a personal matter, he also gives his full support, but in the end, they just lose.

“These are all this official’s fault, this official should die, please huangshang appease your anger.” The Minister of the Civil and Military Affairs and other related officials kneel down and said in unison.

“You all should really die.” The emperor was very angry. He really wanted to take a sword and cut all these useless general’s head.

The right faction knows that the emperor was in a bad mood, but things happened now. Getting angry will not help change the situation. Right Prime Minister You said with a grieving tone: “Huangshang, the front line was now in a tight spot, the commander in charge is dead. Our top priority is to choose another commander that will drive away the Northern Army.”

“Prime Minister You is right” Lin Xiang was unwilling to stay silent, he a.n.a.lyzed the situation and said: “The Northern Army took advantage of the panic state in our army, and captured three cities. We must stabilize our army and regain these cities from the North.”

There were two prime ministers who took the lead, so the other palace ministers followed suit. As soon he heard these words, the emperor’s anger disappeared, but… …

“The commander in charge this time shouldn’t be careless. Can anyone of you officials suggest one?” The commander in charge this time must have inhumane strength. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to turn the wheel.

“How about we pick someone who’s already in the front line?” At this time, they need to choose a commander in charge in a hurry, so it’s better to choose who’s already on the battlefield.

This proposal was good, but are the front line generals have this ability. Weren’t they all beaten after Eminent Xu died?

The emperor didn’t speak, he didn’t directly reject this proposal.

The palace ministers thought seriously and suggested a general one by one. The generals that come out from their mouth were veterans in leading the battle. Although they were not young, they were indeed strong, but the emperor was still not satisfied.

Lin Xiang has always been good at reading the emperor’s mind. Seeing his reaction, he understood that the situation in the front line must be complicated than they imagined: “Huangshang, are there martial G.o.ds in the Northern Army?” Lin Xiang casually find a way to explore the matter in the front line.

“The Northern Army is suspected of having martial G.o.ds in the army.” The emperor said with a black face. All the palace ministers were surprised: “Martial G.o.d? This, how is this possible? Aren’t Martial G.o.ds supposed to stay in the Martial G.o.d Mountain, regardless of what?”

“Martial G.o.ds, our country’s martial G.o.ds are currently practicing. What should we do?”

The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs and other related officials one by one fell on the floor. As if the world will come to an end.

Now that there were Martial G.o.ds in the Northern Army, surely they are stronger than them. They have no chance of winning.

“Didn’t the Central Empire prohibited martial G.o.d’s partic.i.p.ation in ordinary people’s war? Is the Northern Country not afraid to be suppressed by the central empire?” Right Prime Minister You asked with a heavy face, but his eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with dignity.

Only when this thing was mention, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs regained his calm.

The emperor coldly said: “They’re not yet martial G.o.ds.” Just like Xiao Tianyao at this time, he has the strength of a Martial G.o.d but extremely suppressing himself to break through.

Right Prime Minister You heavily sighed and said: “If that is the case, this old minister has a good candidate in mind.”

When this statement came out, everyone became silent.

They all know who is Right Prime Minister You was talking about, but… …

The Emperor had a hard time to get Xiao w.a.n.gye’s military power, will he allow Xiao w.a.n.gye to have this military power again?

Of course, the emperor doesn’t want to, but now that the country was at a great disadvantage. He can only rely on Xiao Tianyao to save the east and avoid being erased in the map, right?

If the country no longer exists, will he still have power?

“Who is it? Speak.” The emperor suppressed the anger in his heart and pretended to be eager to hear suggestions.

When Right Prime Minister You heard this, he knew that the emperor had compromised, so he said: “It is Xiao w.a.n.gye, our East G.o.d of War. Aside from him, no one else could defeat the Northern Army.”

Right Prime Minister You understood the grievances of the emperor, but they have no other choice.

“You said it well, if the G.o.d of War, Xiao w.a.n.gye comes out, the Northern Army will shake in fear.” The Emperor said while gritting his teeth, but he has an exciting look in his face, as he said: “Someone come, sent out an imperial edict!”

When the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs heard this, he was speechless. He also felt weak and powerless.

They know the emperor was left with no other choice!

*

On the same day, the imperial edict was sent to the Xiao w.a.n.gfu. The Emperor appointed Xiao Tianyao as the chief general of the National Defense Army. He ordered him together with 30,000 soldiers and horses to immediately rushed to the front line.

Xiao Tianyao was expecting it but didn’t think that the emperor will react this fast. He expressionlessly accepted the imperial edict and said he knows.

“w.a.n.gye… …” As the eunuch handed the imperial decree, he bluntly said: “The front line is in an urgent situation and can’t wait. The emperor hopes Xiao w.a.n.gye to send troops as soon as possible.”

Xiao Tianyao took over the imperial edict and looked at coldly the eunuch. However, he didn’t say anything, he just turned and went back inside.

The eunuch was stunned and stared at Xiao Tianyao’s departing figure: This, did he agree or not? How will I report back the emperor?

The eunuch was helpless, he looked at the Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guards, hoping they could give him a clear answer, but… …

After seeing Xiao Tianyao’s figure disappear, the Xiao w.a.n.gfu’s guards one by one left. They didn’t pay attention to the eunuch.

After Xiao Tianyao entered the front house, he threw the imperial edict to Housekeeper Cao and said: “Tell w.a.n.gfei to come and see… …” Xiao Tianyao didn’t finish his words, he said: “Forget it, benw.a.n.g will go directly.”

After turning around, Xiao Tianyao walked towards Lin Chujiu’s courtyard… …
