Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"Let's release some of the northern land, allowing those with ambitions to carve out a kingdom and create a natural barrier. How will the Emperor of Yan move south then?"

"That's right. Only by taking advantage of the situation can we reduce losses."

Qin Ming's words made everyone understand immediately.

Emperor Yan's troops will head to the Hong family.

But nobles from other classes would not do that. Most of them were unwilling to give up the fiefdoms they had worked hard for for many years.

Rebellion or claiming to be king are both possible.

Among the nobles in various places, some may be willing to support Qin Ming so that their aristocratic hereditary system can continue to be implemented.

But some people may not think so.

The worst case scenario is that they form guerrilla forces and frequently provoke trouble from all over the place.

Qin Ming and Yan Ziqiong, who had just occupied the imperial city, could not spare the time to suppress the rebellion in a short period of time.

There is a saying that goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Although Qin Ming cannot unite them to resist Emperor Yan together with him now.

But there is one thing we can agree on with them, that is, everyone wants to occupy a piece of land and become the king.

"The division of territory is inevitable, but don't worry, as long as we continue to advance our technology, sooner or later we will be able to take back all the places we lost."

"Before that, we need to be patient."

Qin Ming slowly began to advise Yan Ziqiong.

Unlike what Yan Ziqiong imagined, Qin Ming had no intention of seizing the entire Yan Dynasty in one fell swoop from the beginning.

They had just experienced a war and consumed a lot of resources.

In the future, Qin Ming's troops will withdraw from Yan Ziqiong's hands.

From now on, Yan Ziqiong will be in charge.

If Yan Ziqiong relied on her current strength, it would be enough to stabilize the majority of the territory she had just occupied.

The rest were left alone, and the nobles were allowed to fight among themselves.

This will not only weaken their strength.

They can also be allowed to occupy the north to resist Emperor Yan and others from the Hong family in the north.

"So that's it."

Yan Ziqiong fell silent after hearing Qin Ming's words.

The Yan Dynasty will be divided...

Although Yan Ziqiong had imagined this kind of thing before.

But after they defeated wave after wave of enemies so smoothly.

Yan Ziqiong quickly put the situation behind her.

Now Qin Ming brought up this issue again, which made Yan Ziqiong's expression gradually solemn.

Qin Ming did not continue speaking, but waited for Yan Ziqiong's response. In fact, if Yan Ziqiong wanted, Qin Ming could help her seize more territory.

But Yan Ziqiong is also a smart person.

At this time, Qin Ming has already made the interests involved clear. If he wants to eat a fat man in one bite, his future path will be extremely difficult.

"You have a point. Let's do as you say. After all, we still have most of the land of Yan Dynasty."

At this time Yan Ziqiong spoke slowly.

Hearing this, Qin Ming nodded and then arranged for them to launch an attack on the imperial city.

This battle for the imperial city was a real battle between Qin Ming and the imperial court.

Emperor Yan has been arranging his troops to continuously block Qin Ming.

He just didn't want to fight Qin Ming head-on and weaken his own forces.

But when Qin Ming reached the foot of the imperial city, Chaochao had no way to hide even if he wanted to.

He had no choice but to use all his trump cards and fight Qin Ming to the death.

He intended to destroy more of Qin Ming's troops here and then move the capital.

Qin Ming obviously would not let him consume too much of his few troops.

Following the instigation of the Luo Sect, when Qin Ming just arrived at the foot of the imperial city, many big families began to resist.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

"Nobles from all over the country have actually begun to openly rebel!"

As carrier pigeons flew into the palace.

Several of Emperor Yan's personal guards immediately rushed into the palace and placed the letter in front of Emperor Yan.

When Emperor Yan saw the news, his face turned green.

He immediately called all the high-ranking royal officials in the court to his side.

"Something urgent has happened."

After they all arrived, Emperor Yan spoke to them with a gloomy face about the rebellion of nobles in various places.

Each of these high-ranking officials in the court has an extremely keen sense of smell.

They had already received the news before hearing these words, and at this moment they all lowered their heads in silence, with deathly expressions on their faces.

Seeing their half-dead appearance, Emperor Yan slammed the table and said angrily:

"Are you all speechless? Can't anyone come up with a useful solution?"

"Your Majesty, we should move the capital as soon as possible. There is no need to continue fighting Qin Ming here. We can't wear down too many of his troops."

At this time, Xue Taiping suddenly spoke.

His method is very classic. He retreats as soon as the enemy approaches.

This way they can conserve more strength.

As for how to fight back when the time comes, he doesn't know.

At least he had to keep his position and identity, so that he could continue to hold a high position after joining the Hong family.

"Your Majesty, I think what Lord Xue said makes a lot of sense. If we don't need to fight Qin Ming, then it would be best to leave now."

Yan Renshou rubbed his hands and spoke shamelessly.

For them, benevolence and righteousness and guarding the national border are all empty words.

The only real thing is to run away quickly.

But in the past few days, Emperor Yan has been trying to maintain his remaining face.

He forced them all to stay here and wait for the final battle with Qin Ming.

At least cause some damage to him before they are willing to leave.

The Emperor of Yan thought that if he fought a battle and the news got out, it would not be considered as fleeing without a fight.

It can also preserve the face of the royal family.

But who among the people present cares about his face?

Everyone only cares about their own lives.

You are the emperor, you are the Son of Heaven, and you carry the dignity of the nine provinces and the royal family on your shoulders.

But this doesn't mean we have to fight with you.

At this critical moment, Emperor Yan's actions undoubtedly made many officials present feel dissatisfied.

The imperial city is about to be lost, why is he still acting like an emperor?

You really can't tell the difference between important and unimportant things.

Emperor Yan has been in charge of the imperial city for many years and has long been familiar with the personalities and attitudes of the high-ranking royal officials under his command.

Seeing them like this, I immediately guessed what they were thinking.

They each have a strong opinion of themselves.

If it weren't for the need to save their lives and continue to maintain their status in the court, they would definitely be the first to run away.

It can be said that neither of them had any hope for the other.

"Everyone, I know what you are thinking."

"I won't ask you to contribute manpower. You just need to wait here and retreat together. At worst, I can deploy the troops from my own fiefdom."

In desperation, Emperor Yan told them the whole story directly.

When he heard that Emperor Yan was going to dispatch troops from his territory.

Everyone present looked up in surprise!
