"It's difficult. I really want to avoid the millions of lions of the Great Zhou and the distribution of interests among the nobles. It's really difficult!"
Chu Yang muttered to himself, but still did not have the courage to march into the capital of the Great Zhou.
this time.
He had trouble sleeping almost every day, as his mind was full of various strategies and tactics, as well as countless numbers.
Although Wang Meng, Xun Yu and other advisers exchanged letters with him to discuss the specific situation.
But the final decision still has to be made by him as the boss.
"Your Highness, you still need to rest. This magnificent city has not been built yet, you can't collapse."
The person who spoke was Suo Si, the commander of Chu Yang's personal soldiers and loyal to Chu Yang.
"Hey, I want to rest too, but what about the millions of Japanese troops? The whole world is watching us. I can't just farm and wait to die!"
"If I don't take action, others will."
Chu Yang rubbed his temples and felt exhausted.
"A million troops, a million mouths to feed! The daily consumption of food and fodder is an astronomical figure."
"And those war horses, which one wasn't carefully selected?"
"If we become skinny and hungry, how can we fight?"
At this moment, Chu Yang suddenly started complaining. He didn't expect so many people to appear all of a sudden.
"Your Highness is right. This million-strong army is no joke."
Suo Si nodded in agreement.
Chu Yang stood up, walked to the window, looked at the majestic city being built in full swing in the distance, and made up his mind.
“Maybe this city is the key!”
The construction of the majestic city progressed very quickly. In just two months, the city wall had risen from the ground.
Inside the city, the streets are crisscrossed and the city's scale is beginning to take shape.
This day.
Qin Yurou, wearing a light yellow long skirt, walked slowly into Chu Yang's tent.
"Your Highness, this magnificent city will be completed in a few months. What are your plans for the next step?"
"Why, the Qin family also has suggestions?"
Chu Yang put down the map in his hand and asked with interest.
"I don't have any suggestions, but I have a plan."
Qin Yurou covered her mouth and chuckled, with a hint of cunning in her tone.
Chu Yang couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.
These guys only know how to make plans all day long. Do they really think that fighting is just a game of house?
After sending away the three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, they were asked to lead 50,000 troops to meet the Turks.
This noble family is here again!
"Tell me about it."
Chu Yang sighed helplessly and motioned Qin Yurou to continue.
"Why don't you marry me and take the daughters of the noble families as concubines? That way, the whole country will be united, and you can boldly march south."
Qin Yurou said this in a shocking way.
Chu Yang was stunned for a moment. This girl really said something shocking!
He looked Qin Yurou up and down. This girl was indeed pretty, so beautiful that she could captivate fishes and geese, and shame the moon and flowers.
Besides, she comes from a prominent family, so it wouldn't be a loss if he married her.
"Ahem, this, marriage is a serious matter, how can it be treated as a joke?"
Chu Yang coughed twice, trying to hide his embarrassment.
"Your Highness, I am not kidding. This is for the sake of your great cause!"
Qin Yurou walked up to Chu Yang, gently pulled up his sleeve, and said coquettishly.
"Let's discuss this later. After all, I haven't thought of a battle plan yet."
Chu Yang asked Qin Yurou to leave, and Qin Yurou continued, "Your Highness, why have you become so indecisive? Think about how you conquered the Yuenan countries and Japan."
"This matter is different, so you'd better not ask about it."
at this time.
Suo Si hurriedly lifted the curtain and walked in, clasping his fists.
"Your Highness, something serious has happened!"
Chu Yang waved his hand impatiently. How could such a big problem arise when the mighty city wasn’t even built yet?
Could it be that even city walls can collapse by themselves these days?
"Suo Si, what's wrong with you? You're so flustered. How can you be so rude?"
Suo Si scratched his head awkwardly and said quickly, "Your Highness, Crown Prince Chu Zhenzhou left the palace with a million-strong army under the pretext of going out of the city to suppress bandits."
"It was previously rumored that Crown Prince Chu Zhenzhou was plotting rebellion, and now everyone in the world knows about it."
"The major noble families are already ready to make a move!"
Hearing this, Chu Yang stood up suddenly, and the map in his hand fell to the ground without him noticing.
"What? Chu Zhenzhou led a million-strong army to suppress bandits?! What a joke!"
Suo Si swallowed his saliva and said carefully: "Your Highness, it is absolutely true! The imperial edict has been issued to the world. Crown Prince Chu Zhenzhou is leading an army of 1.3 million and is ready to capture all the thieves in the Great Zhou."
"One million and three hundred thousand! Why doesn't he just eat shit? Where in the world can he find so many bandits to fight against?!"
Chu Yang couldn't help but swear. This Chu Zhenzhou must have been kicked in the head by a donkey.
An army of 1.3 million, are they going to suppress bandits?
This is a robbery!
With so many people, how many counties and prefectures will have to eat up all their food supplies?
The people of the Great Zhou are going to suffer again!
After hearing Chu Yang's words, Qin Yurou put away her joking thoughts, walked to Chu Yang, and spoke in a serious tone.
"Your Highness, this matter is of great importance. The Crown Prince's actions show his rebellious intentions are obvious to everyone!"
"He is recruiting soldiers and horses under the pretext of suppressing bandits, and buying people's hearts. When he comes back, I'm afraid all the nobles and powerful families in the Great Zhou will be in his pocket!"
Chu Yang naturally understood the interests involved. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
"Miss Qin is right. Chu Zhenzhou's move was indeed cruel enough. He didn't care about the lives of the people in the prefecture and county at all."
Chu Yang turned around abruptly, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and looked at Qin Yurou: "Miss Qin, do you think that marriage can really win over those noble families?"
"Your Highness, I dare not speak rashly, but since ancient times, marriage has been the best way to consolidate power and win people's hearts, especially for those aristocratic families that have been passed down for hundreds of years, who value the inheritance of bloodline even more."
Qin Yurou answered cautiously.
Chu Yang nodded, but he knew that marrying Qin Yurou might be okay, but taking dozens of women he had never seen as concubines would be inappropriate.
When the time comes, you will be timid when doing things on your own.
With so many people thinking about their own little piece of land, they probably can’t even plan a marching route.
"Miss Qin, let's discuss this matter later. I have more important things to do now. I will do my best to take care of the Qin family."
Chu Yang looked at Qin Yurou deeply, then turned around and walked back to the map.
For a while.
The world situation changed drastically. Chu Zhenzhou led an army of 1.3 million to various states and counties in the Great Zhou Dynasty and began to win over the local gentry.
The three princes occupied all the counties in Qiongzhou, the entire territory of Yuenan Kingdom, and all the cities in Dongying.
Chu Yang assembled a million troops in the capital of Japan, ready to go.
But in an inconspicuous place, the battle is in full swing!
Zhang Liang, Xiao He and Han Xin, known as the Three Heroes of the Early Han Dynasty, led an army of 50,000 given by Chu Yang to the territory of the Turks.
Han Xin started to work and captured three cities in just a few days.
"It's good to have soldiers. Once I conquer the Turks, I will march west to attack other countries!"
Hearing Han Xin's solemn words, Zhang Liang on the side wondered, "I don't know why Your Highness has abandoned us and has been ambiguous on the Xiongnu border!"
"I guess he doesn't want to be accused of treason, but he has made all the necessary suggestions. All we can do is wait and see what happens."
Xiao He murmured, obviously confused as to why Chu Yang did this.
Han Xin did not agree with their words. With a look of disdain on his face, he said decisively: "There is only one possibility for not sending troops, that is, he cannot plan the marching route of a million-strong army."
"Haha, General Han, that's a good point. Then I would like to ask, can you formulate it?"
