Chapter 154 Candidates for the Expedition
Great Qin.
Ying Chen also received news that the Heavenly Fox Dynasty had dispatched troops.
The Embroidered Uniform Guard is now spread throughout the entire Xuanxing Domain, and almost every force has spies from the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
However, there weren't many Imperial Guards on the demon side, and their infiltration wasn't deep.
After all, that was the territory of the demon race, and the human race would be too conspicuous there.
However, this was enough. The commotion caused by the Heavenly Fox Dynasty could not be kept secret.
Upon learning that the Heavenly Fox Dynasty had dispatched troops, Ying Chen summoned his civil and military officials for a meeting.
At this time, in the imperial study.
All the generals of the Qin army and the main civil officials have arrived.
Ying Chen sat in the main seat and, after everyone had arrived, said, "My dear ministers, you should know why I summoned you here, right?"
Everyone nodded; the servant who brought them here had already told them this beforehand...
"Alright, now that you all know, let's get straight to the point. What are your thoughts on the Heavenly Fox Dynasty's dispatch of troops?"
Seeing that everyone nodded, Ying Chen asked.
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Fox Dynasty dares to send troops to invade our Great Qin. This humble general believes that we should take the initiative and let them know that our Great Qin is not to be trifled with..."
As soon as Ying Chen finished speaking, Guan Yu stepped forward and spoke.
At this moment, Guan Yu's eyes were filled with anger, as if he had an irreconcilable hatred for the Heavenly Fox Dynasty.
Ying Chen nodded slightly and looked at the others, "What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, sending troops is absolutely necessary; the Iron Wolf Dynasty's territory must not be ceded..."
"However, we cannot take the initiative to attack; we can only defend. Now is not the time to break ties with the Heavenly Fox Dynasty..."
Guo Jia pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and spoke.
"Lord Guo, what do you mean? Does this mean that if the Heavenly Fox Dynasty sends troops to attack us, we can't even fight back?"
Upon hearing this, Guan Yu could no longer sit still and hurriedly stood up to refute it.
"General Guan, please calm down, I haven't finished speaking yet..."
Seeing that Guan Yu was agitated, Guo Jia quickly comforted him.
"Hmph! Tell me, this general wants to see what kind of fancy excuses you can come up with..."
Guan Yu snorted coldly and spoke.
Guo Jia was completely unconcerned about Guan Yu's attitude. He looked at Ying Chen and said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent task for our Great Qin now is to advance to the status of an imperial dynasty..."
"The Heavenly Fox Dynasty's military intervention at this time is simply aimed at reclaiming the Iron Wolf Dynasty's territory, preventing our Great Qin from advancing..."
"They won't completely break ties with our Great Qin, after all, there's the Huangfu Dynasty eyeing us covetously nearby. So we just need to keep them outside the borders of our Great Qin..."
"Once my Great Qin Dynasty advances to the level of an imperial dynasty, we can focus on development for a while, and then we can easily destroy a small Heavenly Fox Dynasty with a wave of our hand..."
Guo Jia smiled broadly, raised his right hand and slowly clenched his fist, as if the Heavenly Fox Dynasty could be destroyed at will in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I agree with Fengxiao's viewpoint. As long as our Great Qin Dynasty advances to the level of an imperial dynasty, the Heavenly Fox Dynasty will pose no threat..."
"There is still a gap between our Great Qin and the Imperial Dynasty. Putting aside everything else, just in terms of top-tier experts, our Great Qin is far inferior to the Imperial Dynasty..."
Xun Yu also stepped forward and spoke.
The imperial dynasty has a Mahayana stage expert in charge, and Great Qin currently has no way to deal with a Mahayana stage expert.
Hearing Guo Jia and Xun Yu's words, Guan Yu's anger subsided considerably.
He knew he had been too reckless, thinking that by directly annihilating the army sent by the Heavenly Fox Dynasty, he could dissuade the Heavenly Fox Dynasty from its plans.
Little did they know that the reason the Heavenly Fox Dynasty attacked the Great Qin was because they feared that the Great Qin would become an imperial dynasty.
Ying Chen thought Guo Jia and the other man made sense, so he looked at Lu Bing beside him and asked, "How is the situation with Yuan Tiangang?"
"Your Majesty, Supervisor Yuan's whereabouts are unpredictable. He often appears randomly throughout our Great Qin, and by the time the Embroidered Uniform Guard arrives, Supervisor Yuan has already left..."
"Therefore, I am not entirely clear about what is happening on Supervisor Yuan's side..."
Lu Bing lowered his head in shame and said.
Ying Chen nodded after hearing this, and he did not blame Lu Bing.
Yuan Tiangang is a Void Refinement expert; how could ordinary Imperial Guards keep up with his speed?
"We don't know what's going on with Yuan Tiangang right now, or how much longer he'll need. Therefore, we must keep the Heavenly Fox Dynasty out of the Imperial Court this time, buying him as much time as possible..."
Ying Chen looked at everyone and said in a deep voice.
"Who among you is willing to go to Iron Wolf Prefecture to resist the Heavenly Fox Dynasty?"
The Great Qin divided the newly conquered territories of the Blood Barbarian Dynasty and the Iron Wolf Dynasty into the Blood Barbarian State and the Iron Wolf State.
The Heavenly Fox Dynasty's target is Iron Wolf State.
"Your Majesty, since my arrival, I have yet to achieve any merit. I am willing to go to Iron Wolf Prefecture to resist the attack of the Heavenly Fox Dynasty..."
Chang Yuchun stepped forward and spoke first, ahead of everyone else.
This made the other generals immediately beat their chests in frustration, cursing themselves for being a step too slow!
However, they did not compete with Chang Yuchun for it, as Chang Yuchun did need military achievements to establish his position.
These people already had considerable military achievements to their name, so they didn't care about this one.
Let him have it this time!
"Very well, since none of you have any objections, then Chang Yuchun will lead the Guan Ning Iron Cavalry to Iron Wolf Prefecture to resist the attack of the Heavenly Fox Dynasty..."
"All five million city defense troops of Iron Wolf Prefecture are under your command!"
Seeing that no one else had any objections, Ying Chen finalized the selection of the expedition team.
With Chang Yuchun's 100,000 Guan Ning cavalry, plus the 5 million city defense troops already in Tielang Prefecture, blocking the Tianhu Dynasty would be a piece of cake.
They could even launch a counterattack.
However, there is no need for that.
"Here!"
Chang Yuchun knelt down on one knee excitedly and said.
He had control over five million city defense troops, a considerable amount of power.
You have to understand that those five million city defense troops are no ordinary army!
It is even superior to the army of the imperial dynasty.
Ying Chen has now handed over all these troops to him.
This shows how much Ying Chen trusted him.
This made Chang Yuchun extremely excited.
I must not let His Majesty down and must complete the task assigned to me by His Majesty brilliantly.
Chang Yuchun thought to himself.
"As for the rest of you, you will remain in the capital for the time being. Once Yuan Tiangang returns, the advancement ceremony will commence immediately. Your mission is to safeguard the capital. Anyone who dares to disrupt the advancement ceremony of my Great Qin will be killed..."
Ying Chen looked at the others and said in a cold voice.
"Here!"
The rest of them all spoke solemnly.
"Okay, let's all get down!"
Ying Chen waved his hand and said.
"Your Majesty, please leave!"
The civil and military officials bowed respectfully and slowly withdrew from the imperial study.
