The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

"Your Majesty, did I hear you correctly? You want to send troops to aid Ye Feng?"

Pang Yi had followed Zhao Yunfei for decades, always offering him advice and suggestions, but he was also very clear that if Zhao Yunfei had not been humble, Emperor Xuan of Song would never have become emperor.

When Emperor Xuan of Song ascended the throne in his early years, he was surrounded by two great generals, Wu Jie and Yue Teng, who were both brave and loyal.

He also had a pragmatic prime minister like Zhang Ling by his side, and he watched the Song Dynasty prosper and develop better and better.

At that time, Zhao Yunfei repeatedly lamented to Pang Yi that it was fortunate that he did not covet the throne and let his elder brother become the emperor, which was a good thing for the entire Song Dynasty.

However, the good times did not last long. Seeing that the country was peaceful and the people were prosperous, Emperor Xuan of Song began to use Li Linpu and suppress loyal ministers.

The Yue Family Army was the backbone of the Song Dynasty, fighting in all directions. Yue Teng was loyal to the emperor. However, when the Eighteen Cities of Smoke and Clouds was fighting against the Jin Dynasty, many imperial edicts were conveyed in succession, requiring Yue Teng to return to Nanjing City to report on his work.

Later, Emperor Xuan of Song actually listened to the slander of Li Linpu and others, and executed all members of Yue's family and even disbanded Yue's army.

Zhang Ling, who was the prime minister at the time, was willing to use his position as prime minister to guarantee that Yue's army would not rebel. However, Emperor Xuan of Song not only refused to listen, but also forced Zhang Ling to resign and promoted Li Linpu, who had eliminated dissidents, to be the prime minister.

For more than ten years thereafter, the entire Song Dynasty was in chaos. Emperor Xuan of Song became incompetent and no longer trusted loyal ministers. He indulged himself in the beauties in the harem all day and night, and became more and more fond of Li Linpu, causing the entire Song Dynasty to take a sharp turn for the worse.

Ever since the little girl Zhao Qiuyan ascended the throne, the entire Song Dynasty was almost doomed. Seeing that the three major dynasties were attacking the Song Dynasty, this was a great opportunity for Zhao Yunfei to raise an army. The other side actually wanted to send troops to aid Ye Feng. What was the reason? Even he, who was always calm, really couldn't figure it out.

"Your Majesty, as long as Ye Feng leads his troops out of Jinling City, we can lead the army directly to Jinling City."

"Zhao Qiuyan has been the emperor for so many years, and he has allowed the powerful minister Li Linpu to control the government and harm loyal officials. Now is the time for you to take back the throne that belongs to you."

Chun Yuhao, wearing armor, walked to the center of the hall with a powerful voice.

"Father, what General Chun said makes sense. If we miss this rare opportunity, it will be of no benefit to the Song Dynasty."

"Only my father is the true emperor of the Song Dynasty. Once we capture Jinling City, we can raise our arms and organize the people of the entire Song Dynasty to resist the offensive of the three great dynasties and revive the Song Dynasty."

When Zhao Tuo saw Chunyu Hao's advice, he also hurried out. For so many years, he had already regarded himself as the future crown prince of the Song Dynasty. He believed that with his talents, he would definitely be able to make the Song Dynasty stronger in the future.

Zhao Yunfei was not surprised to see the reactions of Pang Yi and the other three, but he raised his hand to signal everyone not to get excited.

"You all think that I should take advantage of the situation and capture Jinling City. I want to ask you a question." Zhao Yunfei looked indifferent. He had thought deeply about what Pang Yi and others were thinking, but he was also very clear that even if he really captured Jinling City, it would only be a wedding dress for the three dynasties.

As a descendant of the royal family of the Song Dynasty, if Zhao Yunfei fails to revive the Song Dynasty and instead causes its demise, how will future generations write about him?

By that time, he would be the eternal sinner of the Song Dynasty. How could he face his ancestors in the future? I am afraid that by then he would be worse than his incompetent elder brother.

"After we capture Jinling City, who among you is confident that we can resist the simultaneous attack of the three great dynasties?"

"By then, Ye Feng will lead the soldiers of our Great Song Dynasty to fight bloody battles on the front lines, and the morale of the army will surely be weakened. The armies of the three great dynasties will surely be invincible and sweep all the way. Even if we capture Jinling City, it will only be an isolated city."

"The entire Great Song Dynasty will inevitably become a territory that the three great dynasties will divide up, even if we can defend Jinling City with our military strength."

"I want to ask you, if being the emperor means being the emperor of Jinling City, what is the point? Don't forget, I told you all that year. If you wanted to be the emperor, I wouldn't have to give up the throne to my elder brother."

"The purpose of recruiting soldiers and horses over the years is not to usurp the throne, but to make the Song Dynasty prosper, rather than to lead to its demise."

Zhao Yunfei stood up, his eyes wide open, a majestic aura emanating from him, and his gaze swept over his long-time confidant in front of him.

He was also very clear that some of them, following their own goals, wanted to achieve great things and leave their names in history.

As a descendant of the royal blood of the Song Dynasty, he could not stand by and watch the Song Dynasty fall apart and become the territory of the three major dynasties.

"Your Highness, everything depends on human efforts. Do you think that Ye Feng, with only 200,000 or 300,000 troops under his command, which he recruited from the King of Pingxi, the King of Nanyu and others within a year, can resist the attack of the three great dynasties?"

Pang Yi knew Zhao Yunfei's thoughts very well. He knew that in Zhao Yunfei's heart, the throne was far less important than the entire Song Dynasty. Otherwise, he would not have followed him so wholeheartedly for so many years. However, in the current situation, if he was not careful, the Song Dynasty would inevitably suffer a catastrophic disaster.

Zhao Yunfei narrowed his eyes slightly, and faced Pang Yi's questioning, he slowly said: "Military Advisor, you have been following me for nearly 30 years, right?"

"Your Highness, I have been your servant since you came of age." Pang Yi bowed.

As soon as Pang Yi finished speaking, Zhao Yunfei continued, "After the previous emperor ascended the throne, he promised to give you the position of minister of six ministries, but you flatly refused and followed me to Longdong. The original Longdong was called the Three Counties, but it was actually the easternmost part of the Song Dynasty. It was extremely poor and the people were fierce."

"The two of us were full of vigor and vitality. In just over a decade, we were able to control all the major families in Longdong and make them obey us completely."

"My brother was incompetent and executed the entire Yue family. We then began to train soldiers, recruit troops, and secretly accumulate strength."

"Now the king has four generals and the Cloud Guards, and the people in the three counties are prosperous. Once we send troops to capture Jinling City."

"After the Great Jin Dynasty recaptures Tianyun City and learns that we have mobilized our army to attack Jinling City, do you think they will directly turn their troops around and attack our Longdong area?"

"By then, Longdong will become the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty, and we can only hide in Jinling City."

"With your knowledge and perspective, you are naturally very clear that although Jinling City is a famous city in Kyushu, it has no strategic value at all."

"Once the three great dynasties surround Jinling City, it will be a dead city. The only way out for us is to defend it to the death. One day, our troops will be exhausted and the food supply will be insufficient. If that happens, the Song Dynasty will really perish!"

As Zhao Yunfei spoke, he walked down the platform and came in front of Pang Yi and others. His voice was low and full of grief and indignation.

How could he not regret it in his heart? If he had not humbly given up the throne to his seemingly honest elder brother, with Zhao Yunfei's ability, the Song Dynasty would not have been in such a predicament.

Even the Western Shu Dynasty dared to invade, which was truly a great shame and humiliation.

"Father..."

"Snapped!"

Zhao Tuo wanted to persuade him, but Zhao Yunfei raised his hand and slapped him hard in the face, glaring at him. He did not expect that his son, whom he valued, would also be blinded by the power of imperial authority.

"The Song Dynasty still exists, and the country still exists!"

"If the Song Dynasty perishes, we will all become slaves of a conquered nation!"

Zhao Yunfei's heavy voice filled the entire hall.

Zhao Tuo covered his face, feeling extremely aggrieved, but he didn't dare to speak.

"Yunshan, get the map!"

Zhao Yunfei seemed to have known the scene before him. He heard a shout and saw a figure in a black robe appear silently in the hall. He held a map in his hands, which was the territory of the Song Dynasty.
