Chapter 1660: The Shang Emperor Appoints an Empress!
Just because his father was seriously ill and there might be drastic changes in the court, the Southern Wasteland camp was in such a state?
It was reasonable for him to retreat to the border to prevent the situation in the country from changing and respond in time.
Now that he was in charge of the country and Great Xia had a master, there was still a problem with Huang Jingan’s ability!
The Crown Prince issued an edict.” Send it to the three dukes, the four cabinet elders, Bai Jingyuan, and Xu Shidao.”
“Yes, sir!” Wei Shang got down from the platform and quickly passed down the order.
The three chancellors did not return to the residence after court as they usually did.
…
They stayed in their office halls and rushed over as soon as they received orders.
After the ceremony, the crown prince gave him a seat.
Wei Shang explained the situation.
Everyone frowned.
Huang Jing ‘an’s performance was really terrible!
A large camp of Great Xia, be it in terms of military strength, individual combat power, special military services, or feys, surpassed the combined military strength of all the countries at the border.
To be defeated in such a situation could only mean that he was used to being pampered.
After not fighting for a long time, his abilities had decreased greatly.
When it came to the military, Zhang Ronghua, Bai Jingyuan, and Xu Shidao’s opinions were the main ones.
” I suggest changing the commander.” Xu Shidao was the first to speak.” We should send a more experienced and capable person to take charge of the overall situation and destroy the four countries!”
“I disagree!” Grand Secretary Zhao shook his head.
” Changing the commander at the last minute is a great taboo.
Not only will it shake the morale of the soldiers, but it will also be inconvenient to command.
I suggest that we send more spiritual items to the southern border and hand them over to Huang Jing ‘an.
Let him destroy the alliance army of the four countries regardless of the cost.
This way, we can quickly end the battle.”
Xu Shidao retorted,” Although the feys are strong, if they hide in the mountains or forests, or if they don’t fight head-on, they will fight in small groups.
No matter how strong Great Xia’s foundation is, they won’t be able to withstand such a consumption.”
” Then, we can mobilize more troops from the ZhongTian Camp or the BeiHuang Camp.
With the two of them working together, we can wipe them out even if they hide in the mountains or forests,” Elder Zhao said.
“Bullshit!” Xu Shidao was furious and directly cursed.
“If the enemy sets up an ambush, no matter how many soldiers they send, they will just be sending themselves to their deaths.
When the elites of Great Xia are almost exhausted, where will they mobilize their troops when they fight the Shang Dynasty?
Even if we can recruit soldiers, it’s not possible to form combat strength in a short period of time.”
Grand Secretary Zhao scoffed.” The four kingdoms are nothing in the face of absolute power.
They are nothing but a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Minister Xu, you think too highly of them.”
“I support Minister Xu’s suggestion!”Bai Jingyuan said.
The Grand Preceptor said,” Grand Secretary Zhao is right.
It’s fine if it’s normal, but it’s not appropriate to change generals in such a big battle.
Why don’t we mobilize the army and send more spiritual items?”
Taibao supported him.
The Grand Tutor thought for a moment and agreed with Grand Secretary Zhao’s suggestion.
Zhang Ronghua said,” Changing generals is just a temporary pain.
As long as we send someone who is strong and proficient in military strategy, we will be able to take control of the Southern Wasteland Camp in a short period of time.
We will be able to unleash unprecedented combat strength.
The people are also ready-made.
Transfer Shen Qingzhi over, and then transfer Xu Chengan, the general of the Northern Wasteland Camp, and his 200,000 troops to the southern border.
We will take down the four countries in one fell swoop.”
Xu Shidao’s eyes lit up.
The northern border has already been pacified.
One less army won’t affect the overall situation.
With Shen Qingzhi and Xu Cheng ‘an’s ability, the four countries will definitely be destroyed!”
“I agree!”Bai Jingyuan said.
Grand Secretary Zeng thought for a moment and agreed.
Grand Secretary Cui now had an excuse to support Zhang Ronghua.
Grand Secretary Wei wasn’t feeling well, and he was about to step down.
He didn’t want to offend Zhang Ronghua, so he naturally supported him.
Therefore, including Zhang Ronghua, the six of them supported his proposal.
No matter how unwilling the three dukes and Grand Secretary Zhao were, there was nothing they could do.
The Crown Prince was very satisfied, but he didn’t show it on his face.” Draw up a decree and appoint Shen Qingzhi as the Deputy Commander of the Southern Wasteland Camp.
He will immediately head to the southern border and take over all the matters there.
Transfer Huang Jing ‘an back to the capital and order Xu Cheng’an and his army to immediately head to the Southern Wasteland Camp to await Shen Qingzhi’s orders.
If they arrive first, Xu Cheng ‘an can take over the Southern Wasteland Camp.
Whoever dares to disobey will be beheaded!”
Wei Shang placed the written imperial edict in front of His Highness.
The Crown Prince took the jade seal and stamped it before signing it.
Wei Shang handed it to Xia Ningyu and ordered her to do it immediately.
The Crown Prince was just about to speak when the palace door was knocked again.
Eunuch Xiao’s voice came through again.” Your Highness, there’s urgent news from the Shang Dynasty!”
“Come in!”
Eunuch Xiao pushed the door open and closed it before walking forward.
