"That's right." Lu An nodded and said, "In fact, when it comes to military affairs, Your Majesty is also extremely wise. You can be said to be both civil and military. I think it is precisely because of this that he was able to make the decision to send the Champion Marquis to Gaoyang when no one was optimistic about him at the beginning."
"Because Your Majesty is well aware that the Champion Marquis, like you, possesses an unparalleled talent as a military advisor, and they admire each other."
In Lu An's opinion, His Majesty is not only extremely outstanding and wise in domestic affairs, but also in military affairs.
Even the champion Song Hongzhi can compare with him.
only.
When Song Gongwen heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "How can Hongzhi compare to Your Majesty? General Lu, this is not true."
To outsiders, Song Hongzhi is a genius who never appears in the world, the future number one general of the Wei Dynasty, and will be remembered in history.
But as a father, he knew that without such a wise ruler like His Majesty, he would have no chance to show his abilities.
A thousand-mile horse is indeed powerful, but it also needs a good mentor.
"alright."
"Next, it depends on what Meng Jue does."
Song Gongwen spoke without continuing with the previous topic. The most important thing now was how to defeat the Baiyue at the lowest cost.
"Well, but as for this matter, should we report it back to His Majesty and let His Majesty know the current situation of Baiyue?" At this time, Lu An thought for a while and felt that the current situation should be informed to His Majesty.
However, after hearing this, Lin Yuansong simply shook his head and said, "The situation is still uncertain. It won't be too late to report to His Majesty after Meng Jue's defeat. It won't take much time anyway."
Lu An nodded and agreed with this, because in his opinion, His Majesty must have anticipated the current situation.
As for whether to report back or not, it doesn’t matter. As long as he can give Meng Jue a fatal blow at the critical moment, it will be fine.
Therefore, I gave up this idea and felt that I just needed to focus on the situation.
Anyway, I can report back to Your Majesty later.
Afterwards, the three of them didn't say anything more, but instead talked about other things. After this incident, Song Gongwen was also thinking about the problem of food and grass for his own side. The Ministry of Revenue was indeed out of money, but it was not a big deal.
As long as we think of a way, it can be solved. After all, we can't let the defenders of Zhennan Pass fall into the same situation as Baiyue, right?
Lin Yuansong also paid attention to various baggage issues at all times and understood that he could not be careless in this regard.
When I was in the capital, I didn’t have the power to take care of so many things.
It's right beside you now.
There will naturally be no problems when checking, and it can be discovered in time.
The three of them represent the Wei army's southern expedition from different directions. Together, they can handle various incidents without going through multiple rounds of review.
And they all knew very well that this battle was very important to the Wei Dynasty, after all, it was His Majesty who led the army in person.
Therefore, failure is not allowed under any circumstances.
And with the efforts of three people.
The defense of Zhennan Pass will only become more solid, and the Baiyue side will have no chance at all.
In this way, after experiencing several major battles, Meng Jue did not give up and wanted to make changes.
In the end, he was disappointed and the situation became increasingly passive.
Because the enemy we face now is different from the past...
This day.
Meng Jue once again summoned the senior figures of the Baiyue side, and then made a direct decision, which was to ask for peace from the Wei Dynasty.
They said they were asking for peace, but in reality it was almost like surrender, because they had not gained any advantage or strength, so how could they have any conditions for peace?
After hearing this decision, the people of Baiyue instinctively disagreed, thinking it was too unfair. Although Baiyue had been at a disadvantage in the wars between the Central Plains dynasties over the years, it had never been like this.
You must know that now hundreds of tribes are united, but the final result is like this.
Meng Jue naturally anticipated everyone's reaction, and he had no choice but to reveal the reality.
The current situation is that the Baiyue side is in a dilemma, with insufficient food and grass. Several consecutive offensives have all ended in failure, and it is difficult to raise morale.
Even if the Wei Dynasty responded to the challenge and sent troops to attack, their chances of winning would be slim.
Plus, there's still a winter to go through, and if we continue like this, we won't gain any advantage.
Perhaps the Baiyue people will suffer a severe blow from this and will never recover.
So this is the best solution Meng Jue can think of.
As for the others, after hearing this, they remained silent. How could they not understand the current situation? They couldn't win the fight, and they couldn't survive the battle. This feeling was extremely uncomfortable, and it didn't feel like a war at all.
In addition, the army under his command is now beginning to lack food and clothing. If this continues, morale will only be weakened.
But it is really hard to let them choose to surrender like this.
"well."
Finally, Wang Lin spoke up. "The Barbarian Lord's suggestion is indeed the best outcome for us. If we can avoid this battle, we can still survive this winter. The current situation is that the Emperor of Wei wants to endure it with us. He must be aware of the predicament we face."
"Everyone, the barbarians are doing this for the sake of the Baiyue. We can endure it, but what about our companions and families?"
"A temporary surrender doesn't mean that Baiyue has completely surrendered."
His meaning is simple.
The most important thing now is to survive the current situation and at least ensure the lives of hundreds of tribal civilians behind him. Maybe there will be a chance in the future.
