The First Tyrant of Daxia

Kou Tianxiong frowned and said, "At that time, I thought that at most I would just get a scar the size of a bowl on my head, so I said that if I couldn't get out of the Jurchen territory, the Daxia army would march north!"

"Perhaps it was because of your majesty's divine power that they were afraid. After a stalemate, it should be Wanyan Honglie who gave the order and let me go."

"Hmph!" In the hall, many generals snorted coldly and clenched their teeth.

Since the destruction of the Turks, Daxia has never been threatened like this!

Qin Yun's face turned slightly cold: "You have done a good job, and you have not brought down the military prestige of Daxia. I will make a decision on this matter within three days. During this period, no army can act on its own!"

"All scouts can be sent out to investigate the situation in Jurchen territory."

Seeing that Qin Yun had said so, the generals could not make any more suggestions. They all stood up, their armor clanged and roared, and they said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, we obey your command!"

Then, many generals left, only Prince Shunxun and Prince Ning stayed.

Qin Yun paced back and forth, his deep and sharp pupils flickering, and suddenly asked: "Sixth brother, how many troops can Muzhou's food and grass support?"

Qin Yu glanced at Qin Ci, and they both shuddered. He said in embarrassment, "Brother, the food and fodder is enough to support our war of sanctions against the Restoration Army, but the population base for building the Great Wall is too large, and the daily consumption is huge."

"If we want to fight, we must stop building the Great Wall. Otherwise, we will need to transfer grain from the Central Plains, which will take a very long time, and transportation will also be a big problem."

Qin Yun looked at Qin Ci again: "Where are the troops? How many troops can be mobilized?"

Qin Ci said seriously: "Of the twelve riders of Yanyun, plus the troops brought by my brother, less than half can be mobilized, not even 100,000."

"Stop building the Great Wall and give up some of the garrisons. We can double the size of the army and defeat Wanyan Honglie's Restoration Army."

After hearing this, Qin Yun couldn't help but rub his brows, feeling a little annoyed. At the beginning, he had never expected Wanyan Honglie to betray him, so he was not well prepared.

He said sadly, "If we stop the construction of the Great Wall now, it will be a failure. There will be no place to accommodate hundreds of thousands of refugees. I just said I would take over the refugees from the Jurchens, but now I don't care about them anymore. Isn't this a slap in my face?"

Qin Ci frowned and said, "Brother, why not mobilize the troops and food? It should still be in time. The Restoration Army and Emperor Wanyan will definitely not be able to determine the winner in a short period of time."

"That's right!" Qin Yu was originally an idle prince, but after a long period of military service, he had become somewhat tough and rough. He gritted his teeth and said, "Even if it costs a little, as long as my brother can take down the Jurchens, it will be a profit!"

"I have long felt that letting Wanyan Honglie be the emperor is not profitable enough. Since he is causing trouble, why don't we give him a big one and turn the Jurchens into the next Turks! And then the Xiongnu!"

"I heard that the Xiongnu's princess is very beautiful! Why don't you take over the world and put an end to it all, my brother?" he said fiercely.

Even the prince Qin Ci, who was known for his ability to fight, was stunned. Was this his unemployed sixth brother? He was going to destroy the Xiongnu with just a few words. Could it be that the two giants in the north were made of paper?

Qin Yun was also amused and couldn't help laughing and said, "You kid, your heart is bigger than mine."

"That's right!" Qin Ci followed up with a joke: "Sixth brother likes the imperial concubine of the Xiongnu, so don't let the emperor get involved."

Qin Yu's eyes widened: "I'm serious! Don't interrupt me, kid!"

He scolded, and although he was the thinnest, he was the sixth brother after all, so Qin Ci did not dare to talk back. He pursed his lips and smiled, and stopped talking.

At this time, Qin Yun sat on the high hall and said, "Okay, don't think about things that are too far away. First, take good care of the road ahead. The Jurchens are already very difficult to deal with."

"The Daxia army may not be able to adapt to plateau warfare."

"I am weighing a plan that is most beneficial to Daxia. After all, Daxia today is no longer the Daxia that was plagued by internal and external troubles. With endless territory and a vast expanse of mountains and rivers, there is no need for us to take risks and gamble."

When the two heard this, they looked at each other with bright eyes: "Brother, do you have a solution?"

Qin Yun sat down and waved his hand to signal the two to sit down as well.

There was silence for a moment in the majestic lobby.

Qin Yun said seriously: "There are three ways. The first is to support Dugu Jin and let the Western King and Mu Chen assist him to replace Wanyan Honglie. However, this method is quite difficult."

Qin Yu frowned and sighed, "Yes, Madam Dugu is a woman after all, and her appeal is still far less than that of the Crown Prince Wanyan Honglie."

"Brother Emperor, what about the second one?" Qin Ci was curious.

Qin Yun said: "The second is to support Emperor Wanyan and check the Restoration Army. This method is the most stable and most in line with the strategy. As the saying goes, the best strategy is to attack the enemy's strategy. We only need to waste some saliva to get what Daxia wants."

"But the problem is, I also hate Emperor Wanyan. His hands are stained with the blood of Daxia soldiers. I don't want to communicate with him!"

Hearing this, the two men fell silent. This was a bit of a dilemma. They could do this in the overall situation, but personally speaking, they were unwilling to cooperate with Emperor Wanyan.

Qin Yun placed his hands on the wooden table. He suddenly became fierce and murderous: "The third method is the most extreme!"

The two of them looked at each other with serious eyes.

"That means sending special forces, or Jinyiwei, to carry out the decapitation operation!"

As soon as the words fell, Qin Ci's heroic eyes burst into a radiant light, and he stood up in an instant: "Brother Emperor, I will go!"

"To catch a thief, we must first catch the leader. If we take him down, we can destroy the Restoration Army without any casualties in the battle!"

Qin Yun smiled bitterly: "But I also said that this is too extreme."

"Brother, what's so extreme? Wanyan Honglie is unkind, so we are unjust!"

"Jurchen, you can also be crowned emperor!" Qin Ci said loudly.

Even Qin Yu, who has always been gentle in temperament, did not object and thought it was feasible.

Qin Yun shook his head and said meaningfully, "You have to understand that although Wanyan Honglie has changed, he is also likely to be used. If there were no treacherous people around him, I don't believe that he would have changed so much."

"Some people don't want to see me and Wanyan Honglie on good terms, so they have been playing tricks. If I kill Wanyan Honglie, won't I be used by others?"

"In fact, once Wanyan Honglie dies, there must be someone who will benefit! And Daxia's efforts over the past year have become a bubble!" His sharp eyes flashed with wisdom.

Qin Yu and the other man were both startled and horrified. Is there such a trick?

"Brother, who is the beneficiary?"

Qin Yun pondered and said, "It's just a guess. Many things may only become clear later. You guys go down first. I will think about this matter again."

Hearing this, the two of them swallowed their saliva, suppressed their curiosity, and said, "Yes, brother!"
