Civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty, begging me to ascend the throne

Li Yancheng thought.

He began to stand on the city wall, thinking more rigorously and carefully about tomorrow's attack.

"Night attack..." Li Yancheng murmured in a low voice, his voice was inaudible, but Gong Ming beside him moved his ears slightly.

Next, Li Yancheng didn't say much. After completing his inspection, he returned to his room.

Tomorrow's surprise attack plan is a secret, and he has no intention of spreading the specific action plan.

Ever since he heard that His Majesty had made up his mind in Chongguang Hall, he had already thought of his other half.

Li Yancheng did not believe that the Qingyi people did not have spies to deliver news in Daxia.

In the past, he followed Princess Anle to the grassland, and when he came to Qingyi King City, he discovered a hidden fact.

In fact, Qingyi and Daxia are still doing business.

Even on the surface, Daxia has terminated mutual trading.According to past practice, if the lucky supplies go to Qingyi at this time, it is completely treason, a serious crime that can kill the whole family.

But when he was in Qingyi, he still found that the women at the party and the attendants in the palace were wearing cotton and silk clothes that could not be produced in the grasslands.

Others, such as jewelry, fashionable fabrics, and even various types of tea that people use every day, are sold in Qingyi shops everywhere.

Where do these things come from?

You must know that the Qingyi people don't produce these things very much, let alone things like tea. Even if they want to grow them, they can't grow a few trees on the grassland.

Then the flaws and final results of these things are obvious.

The Qingyi people and the Daxia people colluded with each other and made huge profits by smuggling goods.

But Li Yancheng was already in the military, and he thought more.

Since there are business contacts, Li Yancheng would not believe it if Daxia did not have Qingyi's information network.

So, since there is, a lot of news will definitely flow to Qingyi.

For example...this time, His Majesty took the lead and advocated the war.

It's not that he doesn't trust Jiang Yi's red guard, it's just...

Li Yancheng frowned. Those people were just vicious dogs. It was okay to scare people, but how much real ability could they have?
It was precisely because he vaguely realized that the news had been leaked that Li Yancheng appealed to His Majesty to postpone the attack.

One is to confuse the other party, and the other... Li Yancheng wants to become more familiar with the army in hand. He cannot fight an uncertain battle and let the soldiers who have not returned home for several years die in vain.

It is with the purpose of letting more of his own people survive and create a greater victory that Li Yancheng has kept silent about the real battle plan since entering Chengzhou.

He doesn't trust anyone but himself.He will not betray Daxia or His Majesty.

In the evening, Li Yancheng met with several generals in turn and informed them of part of the march plan. This battle was about to begin completely.

遂州
Hanwang Mansion

The King of Han wore a shining silver armor with a serious look on his face. He was followed by [-] guards belonging to the palace. In addition to these, there were also a hundred warriors. They were not wearing armor belonging to the palace. Instead, they were each wearing If they were all dressed in coarse cloth and had not gathered in the palace now, no one would have thought that they were all members of the King of Han.

These one hundred warriors who were not affiliated with the Han Palace were originally recruited from various places by his mother-in-law who was worried about his life in the vassal territory and was afraid that the officials in Suizhou would bully the emperor.

These people only served the King of Han, and even their monthly expenses could not help but make the King of Han feel a little pain.

Fortunately, it's finally time to use them.The King of Han's goal was very obvious. He was accompanied by a guard commander from the royal palace, who helped him manage more than 400 people.

First they went to the arsenal in Suizhou.

Even the guards of the palace, they only have a sword in their hands.If they are not fully armed, they are just like targets on the sword.

Originally, it was common for vassal kings to be under surveillance. Now, if they want to arm these 400 people, they must capture the Suizhou arsenal.

Of course, it was impossible for King Han to think of these details on his own.

Although he often overestimates himself, he also knows that he does not have the ability to lead these 400 people to attack the bridge city.

Originally, the King of Han planned to go on a rampage like this and rush over.With his men and horses, he rushed through various obstacles, first arrived in Jingzhou to worship the fifth brother, and then went straight to Qiaodu.

This was the original plan of the King of Han.

When he said this to Lu Qing, Lu Qing almost laughed regardless of the occasion.

Because at that time he thought it was a joke of the King of Han.

No one smiled until he waited for half a stick of incense. Lu Qing saw the serious face of King Han again, and then the smile on his face stopped, and his heart sank.

At that time, Lu Qing was filled with regret.

The King of Han is just a fool*
Stupid* in Stupid*
Lu Qing recalled his previous efforts to sow discord, and felt that his IQ had been miscalculated.

He should not come to the King of Han.

Or see clearly the fact that King Han is a fool earlier.

Now he had no room to look back, but Lu Qing looked at King Han's mindless rhetoric and felt that he was not far from death.

The entire family is beheaded or is it Ling Chi?

This probably depends on the temper of His Majesty today.It was said that the emperor had a very good temper, Lu Qing thought, so he probably wouldn't be able to escape even Ling Chi.

Lu Qing was originally a fake Taoist priest. He had never been to a Taoist temple for a day, but he was very intelligent. From the previous British public affairs incident, he saw a good way to soar into the sky and gain glory and wealth.

However, now it seems that the method is a good one, but the person chosen is wrong.

As a result, I'm afraid I won't be able to fly into the sky.

But even in such a bleak situation, Lu Qing, who had already boarded the pirate ship, had to reluctantly serve as an adviser to the King of Han.

He first asked the 100 people to loot the arsenal, and then asked the King of Han to control the garrison in Suizhou with the prestige he basically did not have and his only advantage, bravery.

The plan is progressing very smoothly.

Even the King of Han, who was originally extremely rude to Lu Qing, had to admit that this kid's strategy had indeed enhanced his strength a lot.At least for now, getting rid of all the shackles and going to Jingzhou no longer seems like a dream.

But the King of Han also discovered something was wrong.

Why is that brat who was originally eager to serve as his counselor now so unwilling?

This actually made the King of Han feel very uncomfortable, like a lump in his throat.

But this was not the time to talk about this matter. The King of Han had to suppress his temper and follow Lu Qing's instructions.
