The two talked as they walked, and when they arrived at the hall, Jiang Wan'er and Prince Kang were already there.
After the two of them exchanged greetings, Jiang Wan'er waved her hand and said, "Please take a seat and have your meal. We are not in the capital, so there are not so many rules."
After the two of them sat down, Jiang Wan'er looked at Xiao Chuyun.
"General Chu Yun, I don't need to say much about the current situation. You should know why I recalled you from Mubei City, right?"
Xiao Chuyun quickly stood up, nodded, and said, "Your Majesty, I understand."
Jiang Wan'er nodded slightly and said, "Well, there is no need to wait until we return to the capital. Tomorrow morning, you will set out from here and secretly go to Tongshan City to start organizing your army."
"I have ordered Zhao Hao to go on another diplomatic mission to Shu Kingdom after returning to Beijing."
"He will try his best to win over Shu and destroy the Four-Nation Alliance."
"You two are my two preparations."
“No one should slack off!”
Zhao Hao also stood up and said in unison with Xiao Chuyun: "Your Majesty, please rest assured!"
Jiang Wan'er waved at the two of them, motioning them to sit down.
Her gaze turned to King Kang on the other side.
"Uncle!"
King Kang stood up and said, "Your Majesty."
Jiang Wan'er said, "Uncle Wang, ever since Yongning became pregnant, all the treasury has been handed over to the Emperor's uncle."
"Now, the war is about to begin, and the emperor's uncle needs to prepare more money and food from the treasury."
"I have calculated with the Internal History Lord that the court can take out one million strings of cash. If necessary, we will also need support from the treasury."
"Uncle Wang, I'll give you six months, and I'll also prepare to pay two million strings of cash from the treasury. Is that ok?"
King Kang said, "Your Majesty, if we do not repay the debt owed to Shu from now on."
"It is difficult to accumulate two million strings of cash within half a year, but it can be accomplished."
Jiang Wan'er nodded with satisfaction. Three million strings of cash should be enough to last for a year.
Wars, at any time, are fought for money and resources.
I have money now.
The rest.
It's resources.
At this time, Zhao Hao suddenly said, "Your Majesty, do you mean that the window for war is only half a year away?"
If that's the case, it's too urgent.
Jiang Wan'er looked at him and said, "At least half a year. This is my rough estimate, but it may not be the case. It may be longer."
"This time, the initiative to start a war does not lie with me, but depends on the situation of the four countries."
"In theory, after the last war, the losses suffered by Wu and Southern Chu were not small."
"However, now, Shu is on their side, and Shu is very powerful."
"With the support of Shu's resources, Wu and Southern Chu will be able to recover immediately."
"That is why I order you to go to Shu Kingdom as soon as possible."
"Stabilizing Shu is extremely important. This also affects how much time I can have to prepare for war."
Hearing Jiang Wan'er say this, Zhao Hao suddenly realized.
At the same time, I also felt that the burden on my shoulders seemed to be heavier.
King Kang on the side also looked at Zhao Hao and said, "When this battle will start depends on you, kid!"
"It would be best if it could be delayed for a year. That way, I will have more time to prepare for the big move."
Zhao Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I can only say that I will do my best this time."
"But I'm not sure whether it will succeed or not."
"Earlier, we sent envoys to Shu, and the Empress of Shu said that she wanted me to be her son-in-law. It was just an excuse."
"Without the restraint of the wild, I will become a huge threat to them if I do it vigorously."
"I'm afraid that now they are very sorry that they stood on our side during the last war!"
Jiang Wan'er said softly, "You don't have to be too stressed. After you go to Shu, you can act according to circumstances."
"If it's really impossible, then come back."
"Isn't it just a war?"
"I'll do it, what's there to be afraid of?"
When Jiang Wan'er said this, her waist was straight and her beautiful eyes were full of determination.
When Zhao Hao and the other two saw this, they were also infected and subconsciously straightened their bodies.
King Kang nodded and said, "Yes, I have been a great warrior and established my country through war. Over the years, I have never stopped fighting."
"We are least afraid of it."
"It's war!"
"Now, the northern grasslands are no longer barren, and all tribes have been incorporated into my territory."
"At worst, we can retreat to the grassland and become the next wilderness!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Hao quickly looked at the other party.
Good man, only a prince like you would dare to say such a thing.
This hasn't even started yet, but I've already thought of a way out.
Are you smart or are you just a jinx?
Just as he was thinking this, he saw Jiang Wan'er nodded with a smile and said, "Uncle Wang is right."
"At worst, we will become the second wilderness."
Zhao Hao was speechless when he heard this.
Xiao Chuyun on the side immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will never let this happen!"
Zhao Hao rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, speaking of the wilderness, I remember one thing."
"After all, we have just conquered the various tribes on the grassland, and the people on the grassland are still unstable."
"This is not the time for us to take it lightly."
"Especially, the largest tribes have always been unwilling to accept our strategy of pacifying the barbarians."
"If a war breaks out, there's no guarantee they won't do something behind the scenes."
"Your Majesty, we must take precautions before it happens!"
After a pause, he continued, "If I were Shu, I would definitely contact those large tribes at this time."
