Chapter 641: War Begins
"If you want to retire and return home, it's not too late now.
Otherwise, if you wait any longer, you might not even be able to return alive."
Prime Minister Gui said to these officials.
And what Prime Minister Turtle said was indeed true, and every word was meant very seriously.
This is indeed the case in Prime Minister Turtle's opinion.
Originally, Prime Minister Turtle was going to die too.
But it is most likely because of Bai Libing.
Prime Minister Turtle felt that this was the only way he could survive.
Otherwise, he would have to go underground to meet those officials of Vientiane who had been beheaded.
When these people heard Prime Minister Turtle say this, they were all shocked and could not believe it was true.
A veteran cultivator in the Immortal Realm was actually no match for a cultivator in the Jade Pu Realm.
How could this be possible? But when they looked at Prime Minister Turtle's expression and heard his emotional tone, it didn't seem like he was lying to them.
And Prime Minister Turtle really had no reason to lie to himself.
If it is true as Prime Minister Turtle said.
That's true, no one can stop Xu Ming.
If Bai Libing didn’t stand next to Xu Ming.
This Xu Ming really can't cause any trouble.
After all, with the blessing of the entire national protection magic circle, even if Xu Ming is a cultivator in the immortal realm, it is useless to him.
If Prime Minister Turtle took action, he would definitely be able to stop the other party. Even on the first night of Xu Ming's crime, Xu Ming would be killed by Prime Minister Turtle.
The current national protection magic circle will only be used on Xu Ming.
He is already so powerful, and with the support of the national protection magic circle, his realm will reach a very terrifying level.
Basically no one can stop him.
And His Majesty is now determined to clean up the entire court.
We even have to purge those vassal kings.
Otherwise, Your Majesty might feel uneasy even when sleeping.
They are thinking.
Is the current rebellion of the princes within your Majesty's expectations?
These court officials wanted to say something to Prime Minister Turtle.
But seeing Prime Minister Turtle serving tea to the guests, I knew there was no point in saying these things.
They must consider their future survival and their own advancement and retreat.
So these people said goodbye to Prime Minister Turtle, left his mansion, and went straight to their own homes.
All of these people stayed in the imperial study for a long time.
They were thinking about their gains and losses, wondering whether they really should take a step back.
At least I'm not dead yet.
This also means that I still have a chance to survive, and His Majesty has not made up his mind to kill these people.
Your Majesty gave these people a chance.
If I occupied so many official positions, Your Majesty would definitely feel uncomfortable.
Not to mention that the fact that he had just gone to Prime Minister Gui's residence to talk to him must have been known to other people.
If that's the case, then I only have one way.
It would be best for me to leave the capital safely.
Go to other places to serve as a county magistrate, or hold some uninspiring official position.
Otherwise, just retire and return home, never to care about worldly affairs again.
In this way, I might be able to escape this disaster.
The next morning, many ministers had figured things out.
They all asked Bai Libing to retire and return home.
For them, they have already decided to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
Now in this new court, there is no place for me.
If I continue to stay here, not only will I annoy others, but more importantly, Bai Libing will definitely attack me if I continue to stay here.
When Bai Libing saw these people resigning and returning to their hometowns, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
What she wanted most was for these guys to retire and return home.
After all, those guys who really deserved to die have already lost their heads.
These guys are just trying to disgust me a little. If they are willing to leave on their own initiative, then we can just part ways amicably and there is nothing much to say.
At least everyone can retain some dignity.
But if they don't want to part ways amicably, then there is nothing that can be done.
I can only give them some respect.
Therefore, Bai Libing tried to retain those officials who requested to retire and return home.
Of course, it was just a "certain retention" and there was naturally nothing more to say about the rest.
When these people saw that His Majesty was trying to keep them, they naturally knew that His Majesty was just doing a symbolic effort.
After all, how could His Majesty really want to keep me here? We were just trying to save face.
So after Bai Libing persuaded them to stay, they insisted on retiring and returning home.
After doing this three times, Bai Libing finally agreed to let them retire and return home.
He also wanted to give them a lot of spirit stones so that they could live out their lives in peace.
In fact, for them, this is already a good ending.
At least they can still survive, and even live a peaceful and stable life among the mountains and rivers.
From now on, they don’t have to worry about anything else, and no one will want to kill them.
Some officials are wise enough to give up their power, return to their hometowns and live the life of a wealthy man.
But some officials don't think so.
They still want to stay in the imperial capital.
Even these officials don't want to be transferred out.
They still feel that they still have hope.
As long as he doesn't say or do anything more in the future, keeps a low profile, and obeys Tourmaline, he will still be able to stay at the center of power.
There is no way, things like power are too desirable.
It is understandable that they don't want to give up.
But at this time, Bai Libing gave them respect.
Bai Libing first chose a minister who looked very uncomfortable.
That night, this man's head was chopped off in the courtyard just like the previous officials, and his death was unclear.
But everyone knows who killed him.
It was on the third day, when that official was killed as a warning to others, that the other officials knew they really had to leave.
They quickly submitted their resignations and wanted to leave their posts and go back.
At this time, Bai Libing was no longer polite to them and simply told them to get out.
There was no intention of retaining them.
As for giving them some money so that they can go back with dignity? That is even more impossible.
And this represents some of Bai Libing’s thoughts.
As for those officials who resigned three times, Bai Libing asked them to go back, and these officials may be re-employed in the future.
Although it won’t be some important official position.
But at least, it is possible that they will be able to return to the capital once the situation stabilizes.
And after they returned to their hometown, it was actually considered a kind of compliment.
Their results are good.
But it is different for those officials who are ignorant of the current situation.
Bai Libing would definitely not give them face.
Not only will it be impossible for them to be promoted after returning to their hometown, but even the officials in the village may keep their distance from them.
After all, you are the one that His Majesty hates.
Weigh the pros and cons carefully, it's best to stay away from you.
Before long, Bai Libing completely took control of the court and replaced all of its members with his own people.
Prime Minister Turtle also wanted to retire and return home.
He felt that he was indeed a little tired.
In fact, Bai Libing was reluctant to see Prime Minister Turtle leave.
Because no matter what, even though this turtle prime minister sometimes opposes himself.
But overall, this Prime Minister Turtle is still thinking about the royal family of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons.
At least he was a loyal person and did not collude with any vassal king.
So Bai Libing really tried to retain him, hoping that Prime Minister Turtle could stay.
Bai Libing also called the prime minister into the imperial study and had a good talk with him, hoping that the prime minister would continue to shine in the court of Vientiane.
Hearing and seeing that his majesty wanted to keep me, he really didn't want me to leave.
Prime Minister Turtle had no choice but to stay for the time being.
However, Prime Minister Turtle felt that this was his last period of time in the capital.
After the rebellion of the vassal kings was quelled and Vientiane was stabilized, Prime Minister Turtle felt that it was indeed time for him to leave.
This has nothing to do with avoiding suspicion.
It doesn't matter whether you will put away the bow after the birds are killed.
Prime Minister Turtle was thinking that he had been in office for so many years and had done so many things for the Kingdom of Vientiane.
It's time to do something for yourself.
Prime Minister Turtle wanted to be able to ignore other things after he retired and just devote himself to the mountains and rivers.
The court has completely stabilized, and with Prime Minister Turtle in charge, Bai Libing can finally rest assured.
It was on this day that Bai Libing gave the order to lead the army in person.
Bai Libing led an army of 500,000 to quell the rebellion.
As for Prime Minister Turtle.
He just sat in the imperial capital, and all matters, big or small, were handled by Prime Minister Turtle.
On this day, after the oath-taking ceremony, Bai Libing personally put on armor and rode his horse to the front of the army.
The other generals and soldiers of Vientiane saw their Majesty leading the army in person and walking in the front.
Everyone's heart is filled with passion.
Morale has been greatly improved.
Beside Bai Libing were two main generals.
One is a disciple from a famous family in Vientiane.
He was selected through recommendation.
Although this person was recommended and had some connections, and although he looks very young.
But Bai Libing felt that this person did have some strength.
Although he is relatively young, Bai Libing feels that he has a bright future.
Moreover, his appointment as the chief general was also guaranteed by Prime Minister Turtle.
Bai Libing is not a person who does whatever he wants.
She had great faith in Prime Minister Turtle's judgment.
As for Xu Ming.
Xu Ming walked on the right side of Bai Libing.
He was also riding a horse.
Behind Xu Ming, Lin Xingluo also followed.
Regarding this battle, Xu Ming had actually already figured out what he should do.
First of all, I will definitely not tell others what to do.
Although he was the main general of this military operation, in Xu Ming's opinion, he was just a general.
As a general, I know absolutely nothing about fighting a war.
If Xu Ming is required to fight alone, or if Xu Ming is required to lead a team to carry out a special assassination.
Xu Ming felt that he still had some confidence.
But now it's different.
Marching and fighting tests the commander's ability.
This is not just about having a high level of cultivation.
So this time, Xu Ming was very quiet.
Listen to those knowledgeable people to coordinate.
Not long after, Bai Libing personally arrived at Nanyang City with a large army.
Outside Nanyang City, there were hundreds of tents, densely packed together, looking extremely scary.
In Nanyang City, Bai Libing convened a meeting of generals to discuss how to fight the enemy.
How can we repel the enemy while minimizing casualties on our side?
Everyone contributed their own strategies.
But Xu Ming just stood there without saying a word.
After all, Xu Ming knew how much he was worth.
When some other people felt that Xu Ming had ignored it and asked for his opinion.
Xu Ming nodded to indicate that what you said made sense and I had no objection. It was up to you to decide and I would listen to you.
Anyway, Xu Ming is already prepared to be a soldier.
As for Xu Ming's attitude, it is not clear whether he is being humble or something else.
At least Xu Ming's method has won the respect of many people.
At least in their opinion, even if Xu Ming did not understand some combat tactics, he knew how to maintain restraint.
He is not arrogant because of his own realm or because he is favored by His Majesty.
So far, the discussions of Bai Libing's army are going quite smoothly.
At least everyone's strength is directed towards one goal, and everyone has only one enemy in their heart! Soon, the war began.
But before the war started, the first thing Xu Ming did was to lead an elite force of Vientiane to raid the enemy's camp.
Because Xu Ming's realm is very high,
So what they were thinking was to use this method to boost the opponent's morale first.
They believed that Xu Ming could definitely do it with his ability.
Xu Ming also felt that there was nothing wrong with this plan.
So, Xu Ming took an elite force and directly attacked the enemy's camp.
And when the other party found out that it was only a cultivator at the Yu Pu realm, the three princes all laughed.
Master Bai Libing is too arrogant.
Therefore, these princes also sent out several monks in the Yupu realm to fight.
But what was unexpected was that it only took Xu Ming a few breaths to chop off the heads of those who were at the Yu Pu realm.
After this frontal charge, the enemy's morale plummeted.
Xu Ming's attack this time was a complete success.
After Xu Ming returned to Nanyang City, Bai Libing ordered an attack!
Thousands of soldiers and horses rushed out of the city.
