Chapter 1097

~5 min read 925 words

Qin Mu set the grand strategy for the ambush battle.

He was too lazy to manage the details.

With such a simple tactic, if they still couldn't fight well, then the generals were incompetent.

The Great Qin army had this kind of confidence and strength.

"As you command!"

Yu Huatian hurried away again.

Qin Mu revealed a smile.

He had just felt that no major events had occurred recently and felt slightly bored.

Now, the noble families' conspiracy had been delivered to his doorstep.

It must be said that their ability to incite foreign forces to form a coalition army was a step forward.

Seizing the June Mountain gold mine was a good move.

It was just a pity that the gap in strength was there; no matter how many conspiracies and tricks they used, the outcome was destined to be failure!

"Summon Shen Wansan."

"As you command!"

Wei Zhongxian immediately trotted away to summon Shen Wansan to see the Emperor.

Shen Wansan was looking at a location in the city, preparing to build the first large garden in Chang'an City.

Qin Mu had said that this garden was built for all commoners, and anyone could enter and view it at will.

Therefore, this was a public garden, or park for short.

This first park would not only have flowers, trees, rockeries, and ponds, but also a zoo and a pavilion to exhibit spoils of war.

In the future, as long as the commoners of Great Qin came here to take a look,

they would know which victories the Great Qin army had won abroad.

This was an especially good idea.

Shen Wansan, while admiring it, was also very attentive to this park, handling everything personally.

Upon receiving the Emperor's summons, he immediately rushed from the construction site into the palace to see the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, your idea for that park is truly amazing!"

"Why hadn't anyone thought of it before?"

"With such a large garden that commoners can enter at will, the sense of glory of being a Great Qin person has become even stronger!" Qin Mu's original intention was to enhance the commoners' sense of glory.

This way, the commoners would actively contribute their strength to the country.

Great Qin would also become stronger and stronger.

However, this was not what he wanted to talk about now.

Qin Mu pressed his hand down, suppressing Shen Wansan's excited mood.

"The noble families have hatched a conspiracy, forming a coalition army within Byzantine borders, intending to seize June Mountain." Qin Mu briefly explained the situation.

The June Alliance was built by Shen Wansan single-handedly.

Although he did not interfere in military matters, which were completely commanded by Niu Gao and Yang Zaixing,

the overall grand strategy of the June Alliance was formulated by Shen Wansan.

How to utilize the influence of the June Alliance was something Shen Wansan had to consider.

Upon hearing this news, he was furious.

"Those clowns of the four great noble families, are they still not giving up?"

"This time, they actually came up with a coalition army!"

"Your Majesty, this servant will send people to Byzantium to demand they wipe out this coalition army!"

Shen Wansan was accustomed to political considerations.

He did not interfere in military matters, but he wanted to demand that Byzantium send troops to solve this problem themselves.

Qin Mu waved his hand.

"Don't go to them!"

"The matter of the coalition army can no longer be covered up; I don't believe the Byzantine King is unaware?"

"He must also be wanting to wait and see, taking the opportunity to reap benefits."

"This time, we must hit Byzantium hard!"

Hearing the Emperor's meaning, he was determined to fight.

That was also fine.

The Great Qin army was invincible; from time to time, they should fight a war to temper the newcomers.

"If Your Majesty wants to fight, then what can this servant do?"

Qin Mu summoned Shen Wansan, so there must be an arrangement.

Fighting a war didn't need him; only when it involved some schemes would Shen Wansan be needed.

"The initiator of this coalition army is the four great noble families."

"They must be harboring resentment over the previous case of Great Qin wiping out the Wang clan, and thus are retaliating. I want you to set off immediately to the Western Regions Governor's Office and find the Three Yangs and Su Dingfang."

"After the coalition army is ambushed and annihilated, the army will press on the border to intimidate Byzantium."

"Byzantium cannot escape this war indemnity!"

"And we must force them to issue a wanted order, making the four great noble families have nowhere to hide!"

Regarding post-war matters, Qin Mu arranged more than the war itself.

After winning a battle, one must take the opportunity to earn sufficient benefits.

Otherwise, wasn't the victory fought in vain?

Shen Wansan smiled knowingly.

"Your Majesty, this servant understands."

"For dealing with trash like Byzantium that plays little tricks and takes small advantages, we must hit them hard!"

"And the noble families, let them experience the despair of having nowhere to hide in this vast world!"

What Qin Mu wanted was exactly this effect.

The secret to the prosperity of the noble families for thousands of years lay in the fact that they had always received the protection of those in power.

Now, the best way to strike them was to make them like rats crossing the street.

That kind of despair was perhaps a bigger blow than eliminating them, right? ===== CHAPTER 1099 =====
