Chen Xuance knew it very well.
Supporting Duke Aqin to become the monarch was not a good thing for Tiandu.
But there is no way, because King Ali has stood on the opposite side of Wei. Since he has chosen to become an opponent, he must bear the consequences.
Now, Chen Xuance has understood that after he showed the handwritten letter from Lord Song, the noble families present and Duke Aqin have made up their minds.
These people had been suppressed by King Ali for many years and had long been dissatisfied and wanted to overthrow his rule.
But no one dared to step forward, for fear of being targeted and eventually having their entire family killed.
Now that they have the Great Wei as their backing, there is no need to estimate.
So the next step is to give these people advice.
How to deal with King Ali.
Duke Aqin occupies the city of Rota and several surrounding cities. Together with the patriarchs of several major clans, he has an undisputed powerful influence and status in the northern part of Tiandu.
Even if the capital is strong and has support from other places, it is impossible to quell the rebellion in a short period of time.
Now, with the army of the Great Wei gathering, King Ali will definitely feel the threat.
This will make you feel cautious and you can do something about it.
Unite with other forces in Tiandu that are dissatisfied with King Ali.
Until the end.
Let Tiandu replace his monarch.
In fact, he had already calculated this series of plans before. He could not guarantee that they would be foolproof, but no matter what, he would definitely cause Tiandu a lot of trouble and would not be able to pose a threat to Wei anymore.
At this moment, Chen Xuance's smile remained unchanged as he spoke softly, "The Duke's determination is a blessing to the people of Tiandu."
"But the capital is already dealing with the Duke and several clan leaders, so we have to find a way to resist."
"This is the best opportunity to gather our forces."
"Of course, everything is best done in secret."
This sentence.
Everyone present, including Duke Aqin, was dazzled.
That's right. Although everyone had the help of the Wei army, they still didn't dare to openly clash with King Ali. Even though they had made up their minds, it was still the same. In short, they were too timid and didn't dare to risk everything.
However, Chen Xuance said that it would be best for them to assemble a large army in secret to deal with King Ali's capital army.
After all, this way they can be exposed at the last possible moment, and during this period, if something happens, everyone will have a way to retreat.
Therefore, upon hearing this, a clan leader of a large clan smiled and said, "Okay, let's do as Special Envoy Chen said. We will secretly gather a large army in case of emergency. With our strength, we should be able to gather an army of hundreds of thousands."
"With Duke Aqin's prestige, I think we can gather more than 200,000 people within a month. And with our alliance, we won't have to worry about food and fodder. There will definitely be no problems."
The other clan leaders also nodded at this time. The forces under their command were quite powerful.
They are completely incomparable to the nobles of the Wei Dynasty. The nobles of the Wei Dynasty are rich, but that does not mean they have people. It is also difficult for them to gather a large army because the court has the strictest restrictions in this regard.
Once discovered, the whole family will lose their heads.
But what about Tiandu?
Some powerful families and nobles have the power and qualifications to keep private soldiers.
In addition, you can also forge iron tools yourself. However, there are certain limitations in this regard.
Otherwise, they can basically rebel at any time.
As for why the Tiandu Kingdom allowed the nobles to keep private soldiers, Chen Xuance had no idea, but he didn't care. This was not a bad thing for the Great Wei.
He made a rough estimate and asked Duke Aqin and the patriarchs of the major families present to assemble an army of more than 200,000.
For King Ali, this was definitely a threat, because the entire Tiandu army only had 500,000 to 600,000 people. Now one-third of the army rebelled, which was definitely a fatal blow to a country.
Chen Xuance paused, looked at everyone and said, "With these armies, we will definitely be able to give King Ali a surprise when the war truly begins. If you gain power by then, please don't forget me and the Great Wei."
His goal was to get these people to power so that they could represent the court and re-establish relations with Tiandu.
As for the disputed area, Chen Xuance had already discussed it with Duke Aqin.
As long as Duke Aqin becomes the monarch of Tiandu.
From then on, he never mentioned anything about that area.
At the same time, they established a better relationship with the Wei Dynasty and called each other brothers.
As long as this plan is realized, there will be no more disputes in the Wusi region of the Great Wei. I will have completed the mission of His Majesty and can return to the court with dignity.
The reason why I emphasize this sentence to everyone again at this time is to serve as a reminder.
If those present did not admit it, there would be no need for Wei to send troops.
"Don't worry, Special Envoy Chen."
Duke Aqin smiled widely and said, "We have already agreed on this matter before, so we will not go back on our word. King Ali is King Ali, and I am me. I will not do anything that goes against my promise."
At this time, people from other major clans also expressed their opinions and promised that they would never forget the help of Wei in this regard.
In response to this, Chen Xuance smiled slightly, knowing that he just had to wait until the war in Tiandu Kingdom broke out.
