Fengcheng.
After defeating the Shu army, Lu Yun breathed a sigh of relief. To him, the Shu army no longer posed a threat, but the Miao army was still watching him covetously.
No matter what, this time we must solve the problem of Miao State and defeat them.
Only in this way, after the other vassal states know the situation of this battle, they will definitely have a new understanding of the Great Zhou.
Although they had fought wars before, especially with the Huns on the border grasslands, the way they fought at that time seemed to be a complete trick in the eyes of others.
Especially because of Lu Yun's personal efforts, the grassland Huns finally had internal strife, so they won this battle, which was actually not very good at all.
Soon, the Zhou court sent envoys to negotiate peace and issued warnings and announcements to the Shu Kingdom.
Naturally, they have already received the news.
"Eunuch Lu, His Majesty and the Prime Minister mean that this time we must teach the Shu Kingdom a lesson. We must make them suffer for daring to stab our allies. Now, if we don't punish them, we will definitely not let them go."
"Even if Your Majesty is married to the King of Shu."
"I wonder what you think, Eunuch Lu?"
Lu Yun explained calmly, “Although it is according to your wishes, in my opinion, we must punish them if they cannot meet our requirements during the peace talks.
Then we must make them pay a heavy price, even if the Miao army takes this opportunity to continue to attack."
"Anyway, we can definitely defend our own piece of land, but they, the Shu Kingdom, can't stand their own territory. This is our absolute priority."
After listening to Lu Yun's words, they nodded! That's right, the current Shu army is nothing to worry about!
They only need to be wary of the Miao Kingdom, but the Miao Kingdom is still eyeing the Shu Kingdom covetously.
If they cannot capture the city after a long time, then they can only rely on attacking Shu to weaken their own strength.
Anyone can figure this out, but I wonder if the Shu emperor might be blinded by treacherous ministers and do such a stupid thing.
"By the way, Eunuch Lu, the Miao army is watching us closely. During the period of our negotiations, they might make some unusual moves.
Otherwise, we should retreat from Fengcheng and choose another position."
Lu Yun was stunned for a moment. Of course he had considered this. During this period of time, they would definitely not take action easily and could only defend themselves.
If the Miao army really launched a large-scale invasion, they would naturally be able to resist. If that didn't work, they could let the Shu army resist. After all, it would be their territory that was destroyed, and they could just leave.
After this battle, our soldiers finally realized that their strength was not to be feared at all, and their strength was not as strong as they had imagined.
The reason why Shu Kingdom was able to defeat Miao Kingdom before was because of the help of Da Zhou.
"Don't worry, it's okay. If it were any other position, we would be even more unable to hold it.
Fengcheng is the best line of defense and attack. This location is very good, otherwise we would not have chosen to enter from this side."
"You civil servants, you ministers who are negotiating peace, please stop talking about these things. Do you think your vision on the battlefield can compare to mine?"
After hearing this, they felt embarrassed. If they really compared themselves with Eunuch Lu to see who had more experience in fighting, they would definitely not be able to win. Moreover, Eunuch Lu was indeed very good at commanding battles.
They are just making a suggestion.
After the ministers left, Liang Jing walked up to them and whispered, "It's too dangerous. What I fear most now is an accident happening in the court.
If Ye Jiajia is discovered by those ministers, I am afraid that I will be criticized by them."
"However, Ye Jiajia did a pretty good job. She even knew to send troops. Although this was the Prime Minister's plan, he is indeed a smart person for not being afraid in times of danger."
"Then you even have a bold idea now, what if Ye Jiajia replaces me in the future."
"Then I can rest easy from now on. I don't have to worry about anything. It's really great!"
Lu Yun rolled his eyes and explained in a low voice, "Even if you are willing, Jia Jia will not agree. Do you think a female knight would willingly stay in the palace forever, especially doing such a boring job as the emperor?"
"For most ordinary people, becoming an emperor means having great power and being the ruler of the world, but in reality, it's just a position that's been set up."
In Lu Yun's opinion, the emperor in this world is not particularly good. Instead, being a prime minister or a minister is the freest. Not only does he have enormous power but he can also travel everywhere.
In addition, as a time traveler, he also knew that the so-called royal families of the last emperors in history were all set up.
There is nothing wrong with having power hollowed out, and it is also good as a symbol.
"By the way, what conditions do you plan to offer in this negotiation with Shu?"
"After all, they are not easy to deal with. If they decide to fight us to the end and don't insist on negotiations, we may have to fight another war.
Although we have nothing to fear, they are the ones who are most worried.”
"Your Majesty, what do you mean? After all, you are the ruler of a country. How do you think we should punish them for this betrayal?"
Liang Jing frowned and thought for a long time before suddenly saying, "Actually, in my opinion."
"What they did this time was so excessive that they must hand over all the territory south of Fengcheng to us, which is the territory we currently occupy!"
“Although doing so will make the border larger, we only need to hold the Fengcheng line of defense and there is no need to worry about anything else.
With the natural barrier as a barrier, the Shu army can only attack from this side."
"Also, in my opinion, what they did this time was extremely foolish. Therefore, the mastermind behind this matter must be revealed, otherwise they will not be let off."
When these words came out, Lu Yun was a little surprised and said with emotion.
"I didn't expect His Majesty to have such a big appetite, demanding so much land all at once."
"This is what they deserve! They betrayed us behind our backs. Originally, I was thinking of dividing the remaining land after we won the war, but there's no need now. Let's take this place first."
"good!"
