Is this guy Wei Tong's brother?
Is this Father Emperor's secret plan?
At this moment, Li Qiankun suddenly felt a sense of schadenfreude, thinking to himself: Although Lin Yi is a ruthless person, he's probably going to meet a tough opponent this time. This guy doesn't look like a kind soul at all.
Even if someone said he could eat people, Li Qiankun wouldn't doubt it at all.
Bang! Bang!
Wei Kuang slowly emerged from the darkness, his blood-red eyes sweeping over the crowd before finally settling on Li Anlan.
" Wei Kuang pays his respects to Your Majesty!"
"No need for formalities. I have tasked you with dealing with Lin Yi's Net. Are you confident in your abilities?"
"Your Majesty, Ningchuan Commandery is now in a state of chaos, like oil being poured on a raging fire. Lin Yi will surely launch a frenzied purge of heretics. If the Great Ning Guard enter Xiliang, they will not return unless the main army is mobilized!"
"Hmm, not bad!"
Li Anlan nodded slightly. If Wei Kuang agreed, he would look down on him.
Such a rational approach makes it a decent choice.
The current situation in Xiliang is no longer useful for probing. He needs to be taught a lesson. Xining has an army of 80,000, which is enough to make Lin Yi pay the price and let him know that Great Ning is not something he can easily bully.
He said in a deep voice, "I have repeatedly tested Xiliang to see Lin Yi's trump cards and bottom line, but unfortunately the results have been mediocre! It would be a complete waste to expend more effort."
However, he slipped up in the Western Regions, and I will have Cai Yu teach him a lesson.
"And you have only one goal, which is to wipe out the forces within Great Ning, especially the Prince of Min and the Prince of Shu. Do you understand what I mean?"
The problem in Xiliang can't be solved by just sending a few spies in; they'd only be sending them to their deaths. Instead, there are other places where we can do something.
Cai Yu was a veteran general of the Great Ning, known as the Wall of Xining"!
When the Central Plains were ravaged by the Northern Region Barbarians, the Frostwest Empire also wanted to take advantage of the situation and launched an attack on Great Ning with a total of 250,000 troops from more than 20 countries in the Western Regions!
The three counties in front were directly destroyed. At the critical moment, Cai Yu stepped forward. With an army of 50,000, he managed to hold off the 250,000-strong army of the Frostwest Empire for two months, finally allowing the Great Ning Dynasty to recover.
With his strength, dealing with Lin Yi's 50,000 new recruits and this old man Bai Zizai shouldn't be a problem.
At this time, the best option would be to use the power of the clan, led by the Imperial Clan Head, to suppress the other two imperial princes and even consolidate all power.
Only a tightly clenched fist can unleash the most devastating blow; I can afford to wait.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, Wei Kuang is the sharpest blade in Your Majesty's hand, ready to kill enemies for you at any time!" A hint of excitement flashed in Wei Kuang's bloodshot eyes; only killing was the best choice.
Conspiracy? Trick?
All is lost in a single blow!
Li Anlan nodded and smiled, "You may leave now. I grant you special privileges in this matter; you can act first and report later!"
"Your subject obeys!"
Wei Kuang turned and left expressionlessly, not even glancing at the Crown Prince.
This sent chills down Li Qiankun's spine!
What does it mean that Father Emperor is plotting against the Prince of Shu and the Prince of Min right in front of me? Didn't he always keep these things from me before? Is he no longer hiding them from me?
"My son, do you think this empire belongs to you and me, or to All Under Heaven people?" At this moment, Li Anlan's voice came, his voice devoid of joy or sorrow, yet it filled Li Qiankun with a chill.
However, the words "The empire belongs to you and me, father and son" made his heart pound wildly. Was this a hint from his father?
He hesitated only for a moment before saying directly, "Father, I believe that the empire was conquered by you, so it naturally belongs to you. I dare not presume to have it!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Upon hearing this, Li Anlan burst into laughter, his laughter filled with arrogance. He sneered, "Yes, you dare not even dream of it, but many others are!"
" Prince of Shu!"
" Prince of Min!"
" The Prince of Northern Liang!"
" Prince of Xiliang!"
"Even your younger brother, Li Yunmiao, which of these people wouldn't want that!"
But you can only dream about it. The whole All Under Heaven belongs to me! I can conquer this All Under Heaven, and I can suppress the entire All Under Heaven. No one can defy the heavens.
Forehead!
Li Qiankun was dumbfounded. He had thought only his younger brother was fighting for a seat, but suddenly there were so many more vying for seats.
The task is arduous and the road ahead is long.
Xining Commandery border!
In order to protect the interests of the Great Ning Dynasty in the Western Regions, Cai Yu, the general of the Xining Army, dispatched 30,000 troops to support the Jushi Kingdom.
To everyone's surprise, the war ended before the Xining Army even reached Jushi Kingdom! This put the Xining Army in an awkward position, leaving them in a dilemma.
With only 30,000 Xining Army, it's unrealistic to expect them to wipe out the enemy.
This means we need to make a choice.
To stay or to leave!
Looking down at the Jushi Kingdom, with the battle flag of Xiliang flying above it, Cai Yu's eyes were filled with solemnity. He sighed, "The younger generation is truly formidable. I never expected Lin Yi to be even more ruthless than his father, actually sending troops to annihilate these two kingdoms. He's a formidable character."
The troops of Xiliang have actually marched into the Western Regions! This kid is simply unpredictable. What is his purpose? Is he trying to open a passage into Great Ning?
Should we still conquer the Western Regions?
The Jushi Kingdom has caused a lot of trouble over the years, but Lin Rusong has never made a move against either of them. I never expected his son to take action. This old man has a good son.
However, this young man has become a feudal lord at such a young age, and he will probably be even more troublesome than his father in the future.
"General, it must be because the Jushi Kingdom and the Shachi Kingdom are too useless. If the Xiliang Army hadn't only arrived the All Under Heaven, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold out for Tiandu!" Dong Chengwu, the deputy general of the Xining Army, spat and said angrily.
Outrageous!
These are two countries, not two bunches of idiots. How could they just disappear like that? There's no logic to it.
The combined military strength of the two countries is over 50,000. Even if you couldn't defeat Xiliang, you should at least be able to defend your own base. You were wiped out in just one day. It's really too shameful!
Even if they hold out for just one more day, we can still catch up.
"You can't blame them for that!"
Seeing his younger brother so indignant, Cai Yu smiled and shook his head. Then he pointed to the city walls of the Jushi Kingdom and said in a deep voice, "The national strength of the Jushi Kingdom is far inferior to that of Great Ning. Its city is not even comparable to our county city. It's only a matter of time before it's breached!"
He knew perfectly well that Xiliang had inherited the combat system of Great Ning, and possessed siege crossbows and catapults.
To put it bluntly, the two states of the Jushi Kingdom were small countries with no national strength to build stronger city walls, so how could they withstand the catapults and siege crossbows of Xiliang?
Moreover, Xiliang mobilized 100,000 troops this time, so it's normal that Jushi Kingdom and Shachi Kingdom couldn't withstand it, as the two forces are not on the same level.
The only problem is that it's too fast!
"I see!"
Upon hearing this, Dong Chengwu suddenly realized why those two small countries had disappeared so quickly; it turned out they were utterly insignificant.
That damn guy is still jumping around like that, he's practically asking for death.
It seems that the support Great Ning has given them over the years has backfired, making them think they are All Under Heaven. That's why they were struck by misfortune and encountered Lin Yi, this jinx.
