Chapter 1294: He Lingchuan's Battlefield

He Lingchuan's expression moved. More than 160 years later, Beijia also used this move against the Yao Nation.

Supervising or acting on behalf of state affairs is called supervising the country. Beijia sent a supervisor to strengthen control over the vassal state.

And for Xiro, even the supervisor was sent by a foreign country; this is the loss of sovereignty and the humiliation of the monarch and ministers.

"The Xiro court is extremely indignant, but the new King's ascension to the throne depends entirely on Beijia's support, and he has no power to say no."

He Lingchuan heard this and said: "I heard that when the new King was the second prince, he had no deep foundation in the country, and no one even looked favorably on him, so Beijia supported him to the throne."

The new King had a shallow foundation in Xiro and could only rely on Beijia's power, so he had to be obedient to Beijia.

Beijia played this hand, it should be familiar, right?

"That supervisor is surnamed Wang, and his pomp is even greater than the King's. He enters and exits the Xiro court as if it were his own home, scolding the ministers at every turn, and even beheaded three people on behalf of the new King." Zhong Shengguang's eyes were gloomy. "Now his mansion in the Xiro capital is crowded with people, a strange sight. The ministers know that he is the one who gives orders, so they all line up to curry favor."

He Lingchuan didn't know what to say when he heard this.

"In the past..." Zhong Shengguang's throat was also a bit blocked, and he was silent for a while before saying, "In the past, when the old King was in power, no matter how weak Xiro was, it wasn't like this."

The Xiro of the past, no matter how difficult the national economy and people's livelihood were, was at least a sovereign state.

As a Xiro person, Zhong Shengguang felt deeply sad.

Of course, He Lingchuan didn't have these complex and unspeakable emotions, just a bit of emotion.

Zhong Shengguang stared at the sand table for a long time before calming down: "Our internal response heard an intelligence from the Xiro King's attendant."

Internal response?

He Lingchuan understood immediately: That's right, the new Xiro King is weak, and state affairs are controlled by the supervisor; it would be strange if the palace interior wasn't chaotic.

It's not difficult for Zhong Shengguang's people to fish in troubled waters there.

He clenched his fists, word by word: "Listen well: Beijia intends to let Xiro send troops to attack the Maohe Plain."

He Lingchuan was stunned for two or three breaths, his eyes falling on the sand table, secretly exhaling a long breath.

Xiro wants to send troops to attack the Maohe Plain, to attack Yuh'eng City?

That is Panlongcheng's territory! Nominally speaking, Panlongcheng is still Xiro's territory. If Xiro Nation really sends troops, it is equivalent to attacking its own border territory!

This is too...

No wonder Zhong Shengguang is angry.

Whether emotionally or rationally, this doesn't make sense.

He Lingchuan could only sigh: "So vicious, truly worthy of Beijia."

Zhong Shengguang kept a straight face: "Beijia even checked with Jin Tao, letting Xiro troops borrow the way through Jin Tao to attack Yuh'eng City."

He Lingchuan pressed his temples: "Even the route is planned."

If Xiro really comes to commit a crime, how should Zhong Shengguang fight this battle? "The Xiro ministers are strongly opposed, but Supervisor Wang went to the King's place."

In front of Beijia, how much autonomy does Xiro have? He Lingchuan frowned: "Why does Beijia act like this?"

"Beijia 'showed favor' to us, but we dragged it out for several months, presumably it is not very satisfied." Zhong Shengguang said slowly, "Or, it has been planned this way from the beginning, and it doesn't intend to trust us lightly."

What is the Demon Emperor thinking, what is the Heavenly God thinking, who can calculate it accurately?

"This intelligence is reliable, and we must prepare accordingly." Zhong Shengguang pointed to the Maohe Plain on the sand table. "Among all the generals, you are most familiar with the Maohe Plain; and... you are not a Xiro person. It is most appropriate for you to lead the troops."

He Lingchuan had been deeply involved in the Maohe Plain for nearly two years and knew everything about Yuh'eng City and Longchuan like the back of his hand.

He is also not a Xiro person, so there is no psychological barrier to fighting the Xiro army.

Zhong Shengguang counted and counted, and this job still had to be done by He Lingchuan.

"Yes." He Lingchuan looked at the Xianyou Nation on the sand table and sighed. Back then, General Hong personally led the Dafeng Army to attack the Xiji capital and Yuh'eng City, sweeping away like bamboo, which he still misses to this day.

A good man's hot blood should naturally be spilled on the battlefield.

Panlongcheng is preparing for a lightning attack on Xianyou; no matter the scale of the battle or the intensity of the battle, it will be far greater than Yuh'eng City, which is truly exciting to think about.

Alas, he also wants to participate in this national war, but military orders are like mountains.

Zhong Shengguang saw through his unwillingness: "Do you think Beijia will take action against Yuh'eng City?"

This question is very difficult. He Lingchuan thought for a while before saying: "If they force Xiro to send troops to Yuh'eng City, they themselves will mostly watch from the sidelines. This matter must be divided into two parts."

"How to say?"

"If the battlefield situation is unfavorable to Xiro—and this is inevitable—Beijia can send troops in the name of assisting allied forces. A big country like Beijia taking action against others usually needs a famous teacher. As for whether it will really send troops, first, it depends on our response to Beijia's proposal, and second, it may also depend on the situation on the northwest front. If our attack on Xianyou Nation is blocked and the speed is lower than expected, Beijia may personally take the field after receiving the news."

He paused: "It has actions on the Maohe Plain, which is to put pressure on Panlongcheng."

"Analyzed very well." Zhong Shengguang didn't hide the appreciation in his eyes. This is the general who grew up in the Panlong Wilderness! "Now understand why I transferred you there? Once Beijia takes the field, you have to carry the pressure on the east line of the Maohe Plain! Although Panlongcheng is full of fierce generals, there are only one or two who can take this responsibility."

He casually put a high hat on He Lingchuan, and the latter, although he understood, was still pleased in his heart.

Zhong Shengguang has always been good at using people, and for so many years, he has rarely misjudged.

He Lingchuan said in a low voice: "Panlongcheng is likely to fight on two fronts."

Northwest line, lightning attack on Xianyou, defense against Bali.

East line, resist Xiro Nation's attack, be alert to Beijia taking the field.

Fighting on multiple fronts has always been avoided by military strategists, because the financial, material, and military resources of a country and a place are difficult to support, and the longer the time, the easier it is to collapse.

"Not only." Zhong Shengguang was even more sober than him. "Many small countries in the south, at least four or five are close to Beijia. Once the battle in the Panlong Wilderness starts, I don't know if there will be any movement there. So, Panlongcheng must keep one eye on that side and cannot be careless."

Yes, surrounded by enemies on three sides, this battle is really hard to fight.
