The sudden military intelligence report once again silenced the officials.
Or is it an urgent military intelligence report sent by Yu Tai?
Has the Northern Army started the attack?
Soon, the urgent military intelligence report sent back by Yu Tai was delivered to Yuan Fu.
Yuan Fu opened the military intelligence report and looked through it carefully.
As he watched, Yuan Fu's expression suddenly changed.
Seeing that Yuan Fu's expression was not right, the ministers also became worried.
Obviously, what Yuan Fu received was not good news.
And it’s an urgent military intelligence report!
Could it be that, as they thought, Da Gan had already launched an attack?
...
...
The front-line troops were defeated?
Qiuchi’s main forces are concentrated on the border with Dayue Kingdom.
In order to form this large army, many cities in their rear were basically left unguarded.
If the army led by Yu Tai was defeated, Qiuchi would be finished!
At this moment, both the loyal and treacherous ministers became nervous.
Everyone looked at Yuan Fu eagerly, eager to know the content of the urgent report.
However, Yuan Fu paid no attention to his ministers at all.
Yuan Fu's attention was entirely on the urgent military intelligence report.
Only after Yuan Fu read the letter in his hand over and over several times did he hand the letter to Yao Cuo with a frown and ask him to read it out in public.
Yao Cuo did not dare to delay and immediately took the letter and began to read it.
This is urgent military information sent by Yu Tai.
The Northern Army did not launch an attack from the Sulu River Plain as they had expected, but instead built a city at the junction of the Sulu River Plain and Beimotu!
This move by the Northern Army completely disrupted the plans of Yu Tai and others.
In his letter, Yu Tai analyzed in detail the dangers of allowing the Northern Army to build the city.
Now, Dayue Kingdom and Guifang are also a little confused.
No one expected that the Northern Army would resort to such a move.
They knew that the Northern Army was forcing them to attack.
Therefore, Yu Tai was somewhat hesitant, not knowing whether to launch an attack while the Northern Army was still unstable.
Yu Tai and the second prince Yuan Xu did not dare to make a decision on their own and could only ask Yuan Fu for instructions.
"No wonder Yun Zheng sent troops to seal off the Tianqiong Mountain Pass!"
"Damn Yun Zheng, he actually thought of using this method to force us to take the initiative to attack."
"If you ask me, let's attack. Our three-nation coalition forces have more than 300,000 troops combined. Why should we be afraid of such a small number of Northern Army troops?"
"That's easy for you to say. Why don't you send your son to the front?"
"Even if Yun Zheng succeeds in building the city there, so what? The worst that can happen is that we can send troops to guard the other side of the Sole River!"
"Defend? How to defend? Once the enemy has gained a foothold and has sufficient food and fodder, they can threaten our safety at any time! Should we have all the soldiers guarding there? What if the cities in the rear are left unguarded for a long time and someone rebels? What should we do?"
"At worst, we can build a city too! We will take the initiative to attack, and the outcome will be hard to predict..."
The ministers started a heated discussion again.
People who understand military affairs and those who don’t are expressing their opinions.
What's more, some people even proposed to build a city in Qiuchi on the other side of the Sulu River.
However, this idea was quickly rejected by people with foresight.
Logically speaking, they could indeed help build the city.
Although that place is Qiuchi's horse pasture, it is not impossible to build a city there.
But the problem is that if they build the city now, Dayue Kingdom and Guifang will definitely withdraw their troops.
Once the Dayue Kingdom and Guifang withdraw their troops, they will have to face the Northern Palace Army alone!
Even though Qiuchi has natural defenses, it would be a huge pressure for them to face the powerful Northern Army alone.
This time the three kingdoms united to deal with the Northern Army in order to contain it.
If the Northern Army is allowed to continue to develop, it will sooner or later threaten their safety.
If they wanted to build a city, what would they have done already?
Why do you have to do this?
As the discussion deepened, many people's brows became more and more furrowed.
This move by the Northern Army was beyond everyone's expectations.
Now, many people can understand why Yu Tai is worried.
As Qiuchi's number one general, Yu Tai must have seen the problem here.
Now, the problem facing Qiuchi is that taking the initiative to attack carries great risks.
After all, the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army is Yun Zheng.
Even the most arrogant person in Qiuchi would not dare to say that Yun Zheng, who led the Northern Palace Army to defeat Beihuan, was a good-for-nothing.
Whether fighting with Yun Zheng or taking the initiative to attack, no one can guarantee the outcome even if their troops have an absolute advantage.
But if we do not take the initiative to attack and allow the Northern Army to build the city there, it would be like watching the Northern Army hanging a knife on Qiu Chi's neck.
This knife may fall at any time!
Moreover, Qiuchi now has the uncertain factor of Tiexiong.
As a result, Qiuchi’s situation becomes even more difficult to predict.
Listening to the discussion of the crowd, Yuan Fu's brows became more and more furrowed.
This news was so sudden that Yuan Fu is still a little confused.
At this moment, a minister in the court suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I suggest that you order the Second Prince to replace Tiexiong at Tianqiong Pass! In this way, no matter what happens on the Suole River Plain, at least the safety of Tianqiong Pass can be ensured!"
"Master Fang is right!"
His words were immediately echoed by others.
No one can tell what Tiexiong’s current situation is.
But since God has sent down the decree, we need to be on guard against Tiexiong.
The best choice is to let the second prince Yuan Xu replace Tiexiong to guard Tianqiong Pass.
"Tie Xiong has been guarding Tianqiong Pass for several years. Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, changing generals in the middle of a battle is a taboo in military strategy!"
Bu Yang immediately stood up to object.
The minister immediately retorted in a deep voice, "I believe Lord Bu is well aware of the importance of Tianqiong Pass! If Tiexiong rebels, can you afford the responsibility?"
Bu Yang opened his mouth slightly, hesitated for a moment, and still did not dare to respond.
If Tianqiong Pass is lost, Qiuchi will basically have one foot in the gate of hell!
Who can bear this responsibility?
Even though Bu Yang believed that Tiexiong would not betray him, he did not dare to make a rash guarantee.
Yuan Fu was also a little undecided. After hesitating for a moment, he slowly stood up and said, "You guys continue to discuss. I'm going to go out and take a breath."
Having said that, Yuan Su called Sha Zhun and Yao Cuo to leave.
Arriving at the palace garden, Yuan Fu couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
Yun Zheng's move also made him feel a lot of pressure.
He needs to calm down and think carefully.
After a long while, Yuan Fu asked Sha Zhun, "Master, what do you think of letting Wei'er go to Tianqiong Pass to replace Tiexiong?"
"I think this arrangement is very good."
Sha Zhu agreed, "Your Majesty, you can use this opportunity to test Tiexiong! If Tiexiong complains or refuses to hand over the military power, it means that the decree of God is correct!"
Yuan Fu nodded slightly, "That's exactly what I meant!"
It is indeed inappropriate to take down Tiexiong just by relying on an unclear command from God.
But there is no problem in testing Tiexiong!
Right now, all the pressure is on Qiuchi.
There must be no mistakes at Tianqiong Pass!
