Chapter 404: Guo Jia's Plan
Guo Jia went to the capital again and met Dian Wei and Xu Chu.
The latter two got to know the former in several major battles more than ten years ago.
Everyone is in awe of his wisdom.
Therefore, I have an inexplicable sense of trust in him.
"Sir, why didn't you inform me in advance when you came here?"
"His Majesty is in Shangjing City right now. If His Majesty knew that you were coming, he would definitely be very happy."
Xu Chu and Dian Wei spoke one after another.
However, Guo Jia shook his head and responded, "Your Majesty, there is no need to inform me of my visit."
"Furthermore, I believe that with Your Majesty's all-seeing abilities, I'm afraid Your Majesty already knew about it the moment I set foot on Jin soil."
Xu Chu nodded and asked, "Sir, why have you come all the way from Xianyang to Jin?"
Guo Jia said, "I heard something about the Jin territory and was worried about your Majesty's safety, so I came here."
"I know everything that's happened these days. There's something I need you to do right now."
Dian Wei said, "Sir, do you have anything to say? Just tell me!"
Xu Chu echoed, "Master's business is our business. I wonder what your orders are?"
It seems that these powerful generals in Cao Cao's camp all respect Guo Jia very much.
He smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that you all know more about the recent situation in Jintu than I do."
"Right now, those nobles have formed a so-called anti-Qin alliance and are secretly recruiting troops. I believe it won't be long before war breaks out across the land of Jin."
"Those small fry are naturally no match for General Bai Qi. But besides some restless forces within Jin, there's also the State of Yan watching covetously."
"Yan Emperor Li Shimin was a man of great courage and a man who knew how to seize opportunities. He certainly wouldn't miss such a great opportunity."
"I'm worried that Yan will send troops to attack Jin. If that happens, my Great Qin will be unprepared and will suffer."
"Therefore, you need to send a hundred thousand troops to the border and be on high alert."
I heard it was about troop deployment.
Xu Chu and Dian Wei suddenly fell silent.
Because the mobilization of troops requires the emperor's approval.
It would be fine if Ying Yuan was not here.
But he was in Shangjing City after all.
If the troops were mobilized without informing him and some imperial censors found out, in serious cases, he would probably lose his head.
As the matter was of great importance, the two of them could not make up their minds immediately, so they could only speak one after another:
"Yan State has long harbored ambitions to encroach upon the territory of Great Qin. They will certainly not miss this opportunity. However, the matter of mobilizing troops still needs to be reported to Your Majesty."
"Mr. Guo, His Majesty has always respected your opinions. Why don't you go and speak to His Majesty in person?"
They were not worried about whether Ying Yuan's safety would be affected after the 100,000 troops were transferred away.
After all, just in Shangjing City, there are countless people secretly protecting Ying Yuan.
Even if there were more Yuan Tiangangs, it would be difficult to harm Ying Yuan.
Guo Jia shook his head and said, "I cannot go to see His Majesty, because not many people know about my coming to Jin."
"I will secretly find a way to sabotage the evil leader Yuan Tiangang's plan..."
"So, once I see His Majesty, I will let them know that I'm here. This will not be conducive to what I'm going to do next."
What he meant was that the reason why Yuan Tiangang left the imperial court helpless was because he had been operating in the dark.
But now, the person he is playing chess with is no longer the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.
But it was him, Guo Jia.
Not only were many people unaware of his arrival, not only the Bad Guys, but even many people within the Qin State were unaware of it.
To fight darkness with darkness, this is what he wants to achieve.
Ying Yuan's role is to sit in the capital and attract the attention of the bad guys.
At this moment, Xu Chu couldn't help but frown and said, "But... mobilizing troops is no small matter..."
Guo Jia said bluntly: "I know your concerns. You are worried that you will be punished by His Majesty later."
"But I can assure you that His Majesty will not only not punish you, but will praise you instead."
"Besides, you are directly governing the territory of Jin, and you are not mobilizing troops on a large scale, so you will not arouse the opposition of the imperial censors."
Upon hearing this, Dian Wei's eyes widened and he said, "Mobilizing 100,000 troops, isn't that a large-scale operation?"
Guo Jia laughed and said, "I'm not asking you to move a hundred thousand troops all at once. You have to deploy them in batches, and you have to do it secretly."
"You absolutely must not arouse the suspicion of the Bad People. Don't worry, you still have time. It will probably take Yan State half a month to prepare its army."
Xu Chu asked, "If Yan State really sends an army to attack, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on with just 100,000 soldiers, right?"
Guo Jia responded, "How could a hundred thousand troops possibly resist the State of Yan? Their mission is to give Great Qin more opportunities to deploy troops after the war breaks out."
"If you send your troops to the border by then, it will be too late when you get there. With the speed of the Yan army's siege, the border won't hold out for more than a few days."
"But if you have these 100,000 troops, it will be different. You can at least hold off the enemy for half a month. During this time, there are simply too many things that our Great Qin can do."
As the saying goes, one must first stabilize the country before resisting foreign aggression.
That time has really come.
Half a month's buffer period is enough for Qin to quell all internal unrest.
By then, what would happen even if the Yan army broke through the border?
