Chapter 537: Beixia's Considerations

The forced recruits were useless to drive to the front line, and at most they could only hold on for a while. The emperor did not care about the barbarians of the Western Regions and the Northern Frontiers and Northern Xia, and issued an urgent edict overnight to recall the border troops on both sides of the Western Regions and Northern Frontiers, and quickly dispatched them back to defend the capital and repel the rebels.

At this pass, the emperor could not care whether foreign enemies invaded again in the Western Regions and the Northern Frontier. If the capital could not be kept, what's the use of guarding the border?

The two border troops, plus the 100,000 imperial guards in the capital, did not believe that the emperor could not retreat.

The ministers were no longer able to persuade such a desperate approach.

The treasury is now completely empty, and there is no extra food or salary. The army goes to fight against the enemy without food and grass, and no matter how strong the troops are, they cannot last long.

The emperor immediately ordered all the people in the areas that had not been occupied by the rebels to hand over food for the army's needs.

The people who are already in a state of no basis for food and clothing are now even more indifference.

In contrast, the army in the southern border seems particularly high-profile, transporting food and supplies at a high level, not only does military needs worry-free, but also helps the people.

The emperor later learned that the army in the southern border was sufficient food and grass, all because of 1;148471591054062 was being supplied by a merchant named Lian Qingzhou. Lian Ji shops were already spread throughout Da Chu.

The emperor could not control the enemy's rear of the southern army and could only control the front of the war, so he ordered all the company shops in front of the war.

Little did they know that the supplies in those shops had already been transferred to the south, and there was not much left in the shops; but the emperor's copying of the shops could directly lead to a complete chaos and collapse of the thin economy in the front.

Although the army was rampant on the devastated land of the imperial court, it attracted constant criticism from the people.

In the northern border of Great Chu, most of the border troops were transferred back to defend the capital, which was when the border troops were vacant to prevent air defense. Beixia had never sent troops easily and was in a state of waiting and watching.

The Northern Xia Emperor came to take charge of the border in person. Without his orders, the soldiers of the three armies were not allowed to act rashly.

The general under the command of Emperor Beixia advised him several times, saying, "Emperor, the war in the Great Chu is constantly raging. It is a good time to take advantage of the situation. When will it take until the army is raised? Is the emperor really optimistic that Princess Jingxian of the Great Chu can govern the world well?"

In the face of national interests, family affection is not worth mentioning at all for the emperor, not to mention that Princess Jingxian and Emperor Beixia have no blood relationship. In the past, she was only to continue the friendship between the two countries, and a righteous princess was enthroned to marry into the Great Chu. Princess Jingxian was just the granddaughter of Emperor Beixia who was not related to the relationship.

The general said: "The emperor was able to save Princess Jingxian's life before, and he was worthy of kindness and righteousness. After taking over the Great Chu Kingdom, he would give her good land and beautiful houses and a thousand acres of fiefs, which would be the ultimate righteousness."

The Northern Xia Emperor is already middle-aged, and there are still a few traces of gray hair on his neat golden crown bun, but his face is cold, his eyes are sharp, his every move is steady and calm, but he has the majesty of the king, and he does not look old at all.

Emperor Beixia said: "I am afraid that not only the three armies here are waiting for the battle, but the other end of Yeliang will also wait for an opportunity to move. Once I send troops, Yeliang will not be willing to fall behind and will send troops together."

The civil turmoil in Beixia lasted for more than ten years, and its national strength was severely damaged. It has only been completely stable in recent years and is showing a prosperous trend.

"If I send troops to war, the national strength will decline to the past and people's livelihood will be unstable, so how can I be safe?" Emperor Beixia brushed his dragon robe, sat in the head of the commander's camp without changing his face, and swept over the generals lightly, "There is a mess at the moment when Da Chu is standing alone. When he gathers it, he has to spend money and force to pull it up. Do you think sending troops to plunder the land is a good thing?

What's more, the northern border of Great Chu is mostly deserted, and the prosperous areas are mostly gathered in the south of the Yangtze River. There is a closer approach to Yeliang. If you really want to grab it, will Yeliang let that piece of fat fly? Is this battle going to the death with Yeliang?"

All the generals were silent.

It is true that if Ye Liang was eyeing him, the consequences would be really hard to judge.

Beixia and Yeliang both check and balance each other. If the enemy does not move, I will never be idle. As for the agreement reached by Yeliang and Su Zhe and Chen Xian before, if the territory of Great Chu was taken away by Beixia, then the agreement would be useless.

Therefore, although Yeliang did not act rashly on the southern border, he also stationed troops on the border in case of emergency needs.

If Ye Liang fought another war, it might be impossible to fight, but if Beixia did things randomly, the Emperor Ye Liang would not care about the embarrassment of his country and the morality. He would be a fool who would not take advantage of the situation.

So such a magical scene happened between the Great Chu and the North and South countries-

Princess Jingxian has a righteous grandson relationship with Emperor Beixia, and reached some kind of agreement with Emperor Yeliang. Beixia and Yeliang did not easily launch wars between each other, which led to wars in the Great Chu area, and without border guards on the border, it seemed so peaceful!

The rest is the western region of Great Chu. Although the barbarians are ready to move, the terrain is high and mountains. It takes a lot of effort to invade the territory of Great Chu for a while.

Princess Jingxian just led the army to sweep Kyoto, and there was no need to worry about anything else.

The Western Regions border troops blocked the road before the army attacked the capital, while the northern border troops were rushing to come.

If they do not defeat each of them, it will be a very difficult task to make these two armies reconcile with the Imperial Guards in the capital. Therefore, General Huo planned to divide a part of the army and detour to the north of the capital to intercept the northern border army. After defeating the northern border army, he would turn around and attack the last capital from the north.

As for whom to lead the army to fight against the northern border troops, this has become a difficult problem.

A capable and trustworthy person needs to be led by a soldier, and General Huo has few military generals, so it is not enough to take on this great task for the time being.

Chen Xian said: "I'll go."

As soon as these words were spoken, General Huo and the generals refused seriously: "No! How can the princess lead troops to fight? If the princess is asked to go, countless people will want to die in the princess, it will definitely be extremely dangerous!"

Chen Xian looked at Su Zhe and said, "I'll take him with me."

General Huo was still worried and said, "At this time, the princess should not act irritably. Once something happens, it will be a failure!"

Su Zhe said lightly: "General Huo is right. You are not suitable for leading troops to fight. Please wait for two days, and you may have a suitable candidate at that time."

General Huo responded and said, "Yes, the worst thing is that the princess, Lord Su and the generals will sit here. I will take my troops to meet the Northern Frontier Army."

Come out of the commander's camp, Chen Xian said, "I have practiced the military tricks you taught me countless times in the past, but now it is the time to come in handy, but you don't allow me to go?"

Su Zhe raised his eyes and looked at the distant green mountains and the sky, and slowly said, "There are many people who can fight for you, so you need to go into battle yourself."
