Liang Jing returned to the hall where he used to hold court. It was still empty, but he missed it very much. His mood was exactly the same as when Lu Yun first came here.
On this day, they gathered in this hall, and Liang Jing suddenly said,
"You've always been flying the banner of the Great Qin, and now you've conquered the three southwestern kingdoms. Shouldn't the Great Qin have a king? And more importantly, you should be the king now!"
"Only in this way can everyone see your determination, and it will be more legitimate! Otherwise, you are just a fake Daqin."
Lu Yun hesitated when he heard this. To him, it didn't matter whether the Qin Dynasty was ruthless or not. All he had to do was to overthrow the Han Empire.
"No, you're wrong. If I were to declare myself emperor so quickly, it would give others the impression that I'm particularly impetuous. I don't really want to overthrow the Han Empire. I just want to enjoy myself."
"On that day, I will truly overthrow the Han Empire, resolve all issues, and then become king and dominate the world. It will still be in time."
Liang Jing didn't force him, he just gave him a suggestion. "So, how are you going to manage the vast territory of the Three Southwestern Kingdoms?"
"Of course I am the most respected. I am the general and I also control all the officials."
"Of course, we also adopted the Han Dynasty's counties and prefectures, without the so-called vassal states."
Liang Jing was thoughtful. This was not a problem. He could understand Lu Yun's thoughts. However,
"But, if you were a general, who would be in charge of this vast territory and population of the three southwestern kingdoms?"
"You know, if you were a general, you would have to go to war every day. How would you handle so many things?"
Lu Yun smiled wickedly when he heard this. "Why else would I call you back in such a hurry? Of course, I hope you can help me."
"What can I help you with?"
"No one is more suitable than you to help me manage these things."
"But what am I?"
"Don't forget that you were once the emperor. It's normal for you to manage this."
"What identity do you want? You are my woman. You were once the emperor. Even if I become the king, you will still be my queen in the future."
Liang Jing felt a little embarrassed when he said this, his face flushed, and he shook his head hurriedly, "I didn't agree, don't talk nonsense."
"What queen? I've never heard of her."
Although Liang Jing said this, he was very willing to help Lu Yun in his heart. The Great Zhou was gone, and now there was a new Great Qin.
Although they have not yet truly become the king, everyone indirectly believes that they are the Qin Dynasty!
Soon, they all got on the right track and went to the capital, which generally controlled the lifeline of the three southwestern countries. Everything had to be handled here, and Liang Jing also returned to his familiar position.
There are a lot of affairs to deal with every day in the areas where these three countries are located, so it can be said to be very busy!
Before, Lu Yun had been fighting, so he had no time to take care of it. He only discovered it after he came back.
There are so many things to worry about, which makes him very worried. If it weren't for Liang Jing, he would even want to give up.
During this period, Lu Yun was attacked by some villains every day. After all, they all wanted to get the benefits given by the Emperor of Han and also wanted to get the Sword of Qin Emperor.
As everything was getting on track, Lu Yun also began to consider heading east!
Of course, he also analyzed the current situation of the country. The most solid place of the South Sea Empire is the capital, although now he has the qualifications to challenge it.
But if we compete with the capital of the Han Empire so soon, we will only die miserably.
So now we can only take it step by step.
In the tent.
Lu Yun held the map in his hand and said to them, "The most important thing for us now is to determine our route!"
Shangguan Yantou was a bit stubborn and said without thinking, "Brother-in-law, I think we can just attack Chang'an City directly. What's wrong with the capital? There's nothing to be afraid of!"
As soon as the words fell, Lu Yun knocked him on the head. "A rotten tree cannot be carved. Don't you know how to analyze the situation and see how many people we have now and how many people they have?"
"We should now advance from the southeast and surround them. This way, the Han Empire will not receive support, and we can capture Chang'an City in one fell swoop."
"If the emperor wants to escape then, he won't have the chance. Even if he does, he won't be able to take many people with him!"
"This..." After hearing Lu Yun's words, everyone present hesitated, not knowing what to do. However, don't listen to the general. What he says is what he means. There is no point in objecting. It is better to obey.
For the sake of direction, their army assembled immediately, but in order to ensure that no accidents would occur, it was impossible to take all the troops with them.
And in some more important cities, it is still necessary to leave garrisons.
This time, the number of people who went with them to the expedition was only about 100,000, which was very small.
One hundred thousand people fighting against an army of six hundred thousand is like an egg hitting a rock, so there is absolutely no need to get into this bad luck!
The army's marching speed was a little slower. After all, they were carrying a lot of siege weapons, and the routes they were taking were mostly mountainous.
But it is also the safest... Soon the army arrived outside Linqiu City, which is an extremely important city and the most important throat on their southeast route, so there must be heavy troops guarding here.
They were stationed twenty miles outside the city, and needed a simple rest during the march.
On the enemy side, Linqiu City had already stationed 50,000 troops in advance! These 50,000 people were urgently mobilized from other garrisons.
There was no other way. The imperial court did not choose to use their ace army, the Flying Tigers, nor did it choose to use the heavy troops in the capital area. It could only choose to use their miscellaneous army.
"General Deng, the local army has already set up camp twenty miles outside the city, with approximately 100,000 men."
"One hundred thousand men... We definitely can't defeat them. We need to hurry up and get reinforcements from other surrounding cities. No matter what, we have to outnumber them!"
"Yes, General!"
"Also, there is a sect that is willing to cooperate with our army. When the battle breaks out on the battlefield, they will choose to kill Lu Yun."
"Oh? Interesting. I heard that when they attacked Furong City, they were unable to take it down because of the Tang Sect's help."
"We can also take advantage of these people's psychology. After all, His Majesty has personally issued a killing order for the Jianghu."
"They call themselves the Wuliang Sword Sect. They have five hundred disciples, including three Grandmasters! They are all skilled in sword techniques and are extremely powerful."
