The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Tong Luan opened his eyes, and the situation was completely reversed by Jiang Hechuan.

This is what Jiang Hechuan does, not arguing with anyone, nor using any conspiracy, just announcing one thing openly.

Whatever the left prime minister wants to do next, the effect will be greatly reduced.

Tong Luan finally looked at Fang Yun. No matter how good the timing of Jiang Hechuan's chess moves is, he needs chess pieces, and Fang Yun is the one who creates chess pieces.

The court was silent for a moment, and the fourth-rank Dinghai General Yu Xingshu said: "I would like to throw a brick to attract jade."

"Your Majesty Yu, just say it." The voice of the Queen Mother came from the gauze curtain.

Fang Yun looked at Yu Xingshu, who was an old acquaintance of Yuhai City and took good care of him that day.

Unlike the three armies in the north, the ostensible goal of the Yuhai City military is to prevent the invasion of the dragon clan, but in fact it is to guard against the Jiao clan. At this moment, the dragon clan has no intention of fighting, and the Jiaolong Palace must not dare to act rashly, so the senior officers of the army can enter the capital without any scruples.

"I think that with the power of our Jing country, it is impossible to fight against the Cao Man. The strategy to fight against the Cao Man is to unite the human countries. For the sake of Jing country, special envoys should be sent to visit various countries in exchange for rescue." Yu Xingshu said.

Fang Yun and the officials nodded together. No country can fight against the Cao Man alone. Uniting the strength of other countries is the top priority. If other countries do not make efforts, Jing country will definitely lose.

"I agree with the general's words. At the same time, I think that a person from the Ministry of Rites should be sent to the Holy Court to lobby the various families and the Kong family. If the Kong family is willing to send the "Ding Yao Army", then the other countries will certainly increase their efforts to help."

As soon as the three words "Ding Yao Army" came out, all officials stood in awe, and even Ao Huang became serious.

Each semi-saint family raises at least a thousand troops, the sub-saint family has at least 10,000 troops, and the most famous Kong family is the Ding Yao Army.

The Kong family's Dingyao Army consists of three armies: Heaven, Earth, and Man. The Heaven Army guards the Kong family's unique ancient land, which few people know the name of. The Earth Army guards the Shihan Ancient Land, and the Human Army keeps going back and forth between Liangjie Mountain, Zhenyu Sea, or Huangcheng Ancient Land, and occasionally returns to Shengyuan Continent to fight the Three Barbarians.

The Dingyao Army is notorious. Whenever the human race encounters a disaster, the Dingyao Army will definitely take action and achieve many victories.

The Dingyao Army is an army built by the Kong family with all their strength. The lowest-ranking person in it is also a Tongsheng, and there are a lot of Juren and Jinshi. It is a strong army second only to the defenders.

"This is a good idea. I will immediately find someone available in the Ministry of Rites to lobby the Kong family." The Minister of Rites said.

"In addition to foreign aid, our Jing country should also change its existing armies. We should withdraw the two armies that are opposed to Wu and Qing to the north, and at the same time ask the Holy Court to take over the Wild Monster Mountain and transfer the army guarding the Wild Monster Mountain to the north. In this way, our Jing country can have three more armies in the north."

"General Huang is a mature person. In addition, we should mobilize the whole country and expand the new army with at least one million people!"

There was a brief calm in the court, which meant that the number of soldiers in Jing country doubled. Even if the human race's grain is abundant every year, it is still a considerable burden for Jing country.

"The new army can be trained, but the weapons used seem to be insufficient."

"Directly negotiate with the workers, and the Holy Court will help. If the Holy Court does not help, then this official will be angry and knock down the mountain! It would be best if you can borrow a swallowing sea shell."

Ao Huang smiled, and he had a swallowing sea shell in his hand.

"If we can borrow a better Heaven and Earth Shell, then our human race will never have to worry about transporting food and grass again, but it's a pity that we can't borrow it."

Ao Huang couldn't help but interrupt: "Forget the Heaven and Earth Shell. You can exchange the Swallowing Sea Shell for the Shocking Saint Article, and get a Drinking River Shell as a gift."

Fang Yun turned his head and glanced at Ao Huang, who quickly shut up.

One person said, "Prince Huang, I wonder if the dragon clan will lend a hand."

Ao Huang looked at Fang Yun and found that Fang Yun did not stop him. He immediately said firmly, "No! My East China Sea Dragon Palace strictly abides by the agreement with the demon clan and will never help at this time. However, you humans are treacherous and cunning. If you come up with a conspiracy to snatch weapons from my East China Sea Dragon Palace, then we can't do anything. You can ask Fang Yun about this matter. He is full of bad water."

Fang Yun rolled his eyes at Ao Huang, and said, "If the East China Sea Dragon Palace fails to attack Yuhai City, leaving behind countless swords, guns and shields, they will be regarded as spoils of war for my Jing Kingdom."

"You are dreaming. This dragon does not believe that you can defeat my great East China Sea Dragon Clan! Wait for this dragon to go back and discuss it with my sister." Ao Huang said nonsense seriously.

Hearing that the East China Sea Dragon Palace was willing to help, the officials breathed a sigh of relief. The weapons of the East China Sea Dragon Palace were extremely durable and strong, and they could be used by the human race with just a little modification.

The military scholars continued to discuss, but the Minister of Personnel looked at Zhuang Lu, the director of the Ministry of Examination.

Zhuang Lu's expression changed, and he said loudly: "I have something to ask, even if my Dajing layout is perfect and everything goes well, what are the chances of winning?"

"You..."

Zhuang Lu's words hit the point, and no one dared to answer.

Because everyone knew that even in the best case, Jingguo had less than a 10% chance of winning.

The officials were able to discuss because they did not consider winning.

It was as cold as winter in Fengtian Hall.

After a moment of silence, Zhuang Lu continued, "The rescue of the various countries cannot be done with all their heart and soul. The nine countries can only send out a large army at most, with a combat force of no more than 500,000. With auxiliary soldiers and civilians, there are no more than one million. Even if we add the newly recruited soldiers of Jing country, there are only 1.5 million combat soldiers available, and even with auxiliary soldiers and civilians, there are only 3 million. The barbarians, with all their tribes going south, have at least 50 million combat soldiers! Such a huge disparity, why don't you mention it?"

The hall was silent.

Yu Xingshu said in a dry voice: "They attack and we defend. With the help of the city defense weapons, we may be able to delay the barbarians and force them to retreat when their supplies are insufficient."

"Ridiculous! Even if the city defense weapons are equivalent to tens of millions, how can they fight against the barbarians of 50 million?"

Yu Xingshu remained silent. He did not want to argue in the court. He was a military strategist, not a generalist.

"Once the demon saint orders, the demon barbarians will definitely destroy and slaughter one city after another! My Jing country can retreat step by step, but that is to retreat on the corpses of the people of Jing country!"

"Does Lord Zhuang have a good plan to repel the enemy?" said a general.

"Yes!"

"Please let Lord Zhuang know."

All the officials in the court looked at Zhuang Lu intently, and many people had expectations in their eyes.

"My method is very simple. For the sake of the human race and the people, the royal family of my Jing country should abdicate and give up all the land to Qing and Wu. The two countries will go all out and with the help of other countries, they will surely force the barbarians to retreat..."

"Shut up! If you dare to say another word, I will make you bleed in the Golden Palace!" General Zhou Junhu shouted angrily, full of murderous aura, and clouds appeared out of thin air above the palace.

Zhuang Lu's clothes were blown by the strong wind, making a hissing sound and tearing into pieces of cloth.

Zhuang Lu was just a Jinshi, while Zhou Junhu was a university scholar, and his ability to kill was even better than that of the left prime minister.

Zhuang Lu glanced at the Minister of Personnel and did not dare to speak.

Zhou Junhu once threatened the left prime minister in person that if he met someone alone, he would kill the left prime minister with a lip gun. Zhuang Lu was really not worth mentioning.

Ou Mo, the Minister of Personnel, coughed lightly and said, "General Zhou is a little impulsive. What Zhuang Sizheng said may not be unreasonable."

"From what you said, you want to surrender to the enemy and betray the country?" As soon as Zhou Junhu said this, a large number of weapons and phantoms slowly appeared in the sky above the hall, with swords and spears standing in rows, murderous aura permeating, and fighting spirit soaring into the sky.

Fang Yun shook his head secretly. Although the great scholar and the university scholar were no different from ordinary people on weekdays, once they mobilized their power, they were extremely terrifying and definitely not comparable to the Jinshi.
