Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again

The sixth day of the new year.

After the spring break, the Daxia court began its morning session on the first day of the new year.

In the court, King Kang responded to the emperor's instructions...

"When a general is away from home, he may not obey the orders of the king!"

'Spring has always been the best time to attack nomads! If you don't take what heaven has given you, you will suffer the consequences; if you don't act when the time comes, you will suffer the consequences! Now that Daxia has all the advantages, I think we should forge ahead bravely and wipe out the Tatars in one go!'

"I thank you for your concern, but I cannot obey your order!"

There was silence in the court for a long time.

The current emperor is so tough that he never allows for second thoughts when making decisions! The saying that a general may not obey the emperor's orders is just a cover for disobeying the emperor's orders! It all depends on whether the emperor wants to investigate!

But then again, as the prince, and the eldest son, King Kang is naturally different from ordinary generals. Even if he really disobeyed the order, there might not be any big consequences...

The main figures of various factions all knew that the situation analyzed in the imperial study a few days ago was confusing and difficult to predict!

For a while, even King Kang’s own faction didn’t know whether they should support King Kang’s proposal…

However, after a little thought, the Minister of Personnel decided to support King Kang's judgment: "Your Majesty..."

"Ah…"

The emperor chuckled with an ambiguous meaning, interrupting the nonsense, with a amiable look on his face: "Since you have your own arrangements, then forget it. I will wait for Kun'er's triumphant return."

……

Deserted city in the northwest.

Six days later, the enemy attack on New Year's Eve had subsided, and the spoils of war had been largely digested, becoming the strength of the Northwest Army.

It is worth mentioning that Chu Shiyu discovered that although the Qin Family Army was explicitly restricted to only have 10,000 war horses, that is to say, the cavalry could not exceed 10,000, but almost everyone in the Qin Family Army had practiced riding skills, and they were cavalry as soon as they got on a horse!

Although, this matter needs further investigation...but now that Wei Yu is not here and Qin Tao is still not in charge, the 50,000 Qin family troops in the deserted city basically obey orders, so Chu Shiyu temporarily allocated nearly 30,000 war horses to the Qin family troops in the name of wartime relief.

In other words, the number of Northwestern Army cavalry in the deserted city doubled in an instant! With the current military strength, it is enough to wipe out the remaining forces of Wala!

But Chu Shiyu didn't want to do this...

Liu Rusi had just recovered from sleeping only two hours a day, eating and drinking in the medical area, and being busy as hell!

As long as swords and spears are used, no matter how well the battle is fought, there will inevitably be casualties!

She has been so busy because of this great victory. If the Wala are pushed to the limit, there will probably be a river of blood!

Of course, facing the generals' constant proposals to hunt down the treacherous Oirat, Chu Shiyu's statement was reasonable.

"How can we eradicate the Wala completely from such a vast grassland? If the Wala flees beyond Yanling, it will be difficult for our army to pursue them. It is also impossible for us to station hundreds of thousands of troops outside the Great Wall forever. Once the army retreats, the Wala will take the opportunity to return."

“But as long as we can inflict heavy damage on Wala once again, Wala will probably not be able to make a comeback for at least a few decades!” Deputy General Zhao of the Qin Army said excitedly, looking forward to the victory eagerly!

"Don't forget, there is still Tatar. Once the Oirat is destroyed, the grassland will be annexed by Tatar, who will become the only dominant power." Chu Shiyu stated the reality coldly.

Lu Daqing paused and said, "But King Kang sent a letter the day before yesterday, stating that he was determined to defeat the Tatars and hoped that the Northwest Army would help each other... Didn't the general agree?"

"Yes, the Northwest Army can first slaughter the Wala, and then join forces with the Northeast Army to wipe out the Tatars! By then, there will be no rivals for Daxia in the northern desert!"

Chu Shiyu paused. The mutual assistance King Kang mentioned was mainly about merging logistics...

The current positions of the Northeast Army, Northwest Army, and Tatar are almost exactly a three-way confrontation!

The Kherlen River where the Northeastern Army is now located is extremely far away from the northeastern border. The supply line is nearly two thousand miles long. Not only is the transportation cost enormous, it is also very easy to be cut off and intercepted by the Tatars!

The emperor's consideration of recalling King Kang was not groundless. King Kang was unwilling to leave the stage, but he also knew that he should play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses!

Therefore, between withdrawing from the market and taking a risk, King Kang chose the third way, temporarily putting aside the competitive relationship with Chu Shiyu and seeking cooperation!

Although the supply line of the deserted city where the Northwest Army is located is thousands of miles away, the roads it passes through were originally mostly the sphere of influence of the Oirat. The Oirat is now at the end of its strength and is basically unable to pose a threat to the logistics of the Northwest Army.

If the Tatars wanted to go around to the rear of the Northwestern Army and attack the logistics, they would be surrounded by enemies on all sides! It is very likely that they would fall into a trap!

In other words, as long as Prince Kang can reach a cooperation with Chu Shiyu, the Northeast Army will have no worries in the rear! However, the premise is that the two brothers can cooperate sincerely!

The battle for the throne was no less cruel than the fight between two countries! The bloody storms recorded in history books were enough to scare people!

King Kang's choice of this path was also a gamble!

Leaving the logistics to Chu Shiyu is equivalent to giving Chu Shiyu the opportunity to stab King Kang in the back at any time!

In the letter from King Kang, it said: Brothers are united, and their strength can break metal! My third brother is far-sighted and thoughtful. If we can work together, the Tatars will certainly not be afraid! If we can rule the country and bring peace to the world, it is not impossible to do the opposite! The great plan of Daxia is in sight, and I hope to share the prosperity with you!

Simply put, the hope is to attack the outside first and then the inside, to work together to target the external enemy Tatar, and deal with the internal disputes of Daxia later.

In response to this, Chu Shiyu's response was just one word: OK.

Privately, Chu Shiyu sent a "price list" to King Kang, stating bluntly that brothers should settle accounts clearly.

Putting aside his calculations, Chu Shiyu spoke to the generals righteously: "Since we are going to help the Northeast Army attack the Tatars, we must not be indecisive. The Wala is already lingering on, and it is not worth wasting our strength."

After making the decision, Chu Shiyu walked away, leaving a group of confused generals behind... Isn't it normal to do the easy things first and then the difficult ones?

Moreover, merits are divided into primary and secondary!

According to the current distribution, if the attack on Tatar is successful, most of the credit will probably go to King Kang! The achievements on the Oirat side belong to Prince Duduan!
