Oh my god, can you play like this?

Chapter 273: Plan this expedition carefully

The Dongshun Kingdom completely took over Xilin, and the news that Xilin no longer existed naturally spread to the Northern Territory.

The Emperor of the Northern Territory cursed Di Meng from a distance in the court.

Gu Lanzhi had not seen the emperor of the Northern Territory, otherwise he would definitely ask: "How can one become an emperor with this kind of talent?"

The Northern Territory Emperor's style really doesn't make her like an emperor, but more like a shrew.

The Northern Territory made great efforts to support Di Meng in taking the throne. They helped Di Meng get rid of his brothers, ambushed spies in the Xilin court, and provided Di Meng with troops.

All these years of planning were wasted so easily, and even the 100,000 soldiers were gone. It would be strange if the Emperor of the Northern Territory did not feel heartbroken.

But at the same time, everyone in the Northern Territory court was quite wary of Gu Lanzhi.

He was able to destroy the 100,000-strong army of the Northern Territory overnight, and he did so directly as soon as he arrived at the border town, without using the soldiers of Dongshun.

Who wouldn't be afraid of such a person?

Di Meng has been put into a prison van and sent to the capital of Dongshun. This means that Gu Lanzhi is already aware of what Beiyu has done.

The spies in the Northern Territory had already done a lot of investigation and research on Gu Lanzhi, and they all knew that Gu Lanzhi was not someone who would swallow his anger in silence.

Now Xilin is Dongshun's territory. Will Gu Lanzhi care about the Northern Territory that started this war?

For the fact that Gu Lanzhi strangely wiped out a hundred thousand soldiers in just one night, it would be a lie for the people in the Northern Territory to say that they were not terrified.

Especially the strange "sky fire", what on earth is that? Why is it so powerful?

So many people don't even have the ability to resist, and they are gone in an instant. Who wouldn't feel scared?

People are like this, they will feel afraid of things they cannot understand.

After the Emperor of the Northern Territory had scolded Di Meng enough, he fell silent. The hall was quiet and no one dared to speak too much at this time, for fear of bringing trouble upon themselves.

"You all tell me, Xilin is now under Dongshun's control, will Dongshun come to settle disputes with our Northern Territory?

In the past, there was a western border between us and Dongshun, and there was very little land bordering us.

It’s different now. Dongshun is facing our Northern Territory directly. Will they declare war on our Northern Territory now?”

After the Northern Territory Emperor finished speaking, the hall fell silent again, and finally the Northern Territory's Prime Minister stood up.

“Your Majesty, it is a war after all, and Dongshun must be tired after taking over Xilin this time.

In the opinion of the old minister, Dongshun will definitely reorganize Xilin first.

Xilin was destroyed, and the people of Xilin must have hatred towards Dongshun in their hearts, and they may not be able to sincerely submit to Dongshun.

If Dongshun attacks our northern region at this time, it will definitely worry that the people in the west will cause chaos. By then, Dongshun’s army will be in a state of being attacked from both sides.

Therefore, even if Dongshun is angry with our Northern Territory, he will not confront us in the Northern Territory right now.

They will have to educate the people of Xilin for several years, at least until they are sure that the people of Xilin will not betray them.

It seems that we will not really go to war with Dongshun in the next few years."

After the old prime minister spoke, the other officials in the Northern Territory also became excited.

"Your Majesty, I think the Prime Minister's words make a lot of sense."

"I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal."

"I also second my opinion."

The Emperor of the Northern Territory stroked his beard and a smile appeared on his face.

What the Prime Minister said is absolutely right. Even Li Beichen has such concerns.

He knew that Gu Lanzhi wanted to take over the Northern Territory in one fell swoop, but the people in the west had to be on guard as well.

So these days Li Beichen has been carefully telling Gu Lanzhi about his concerns and persuading Gu Lanzhi not to be so impulsive.

Gu Lanzhi is not a reckless man, of course he knows all this, and in fact he also has such concerns.

But doesn’t Gu Lanzhi have a system? Even if the people of Xilin rebel, it will be easy for Gu Lanzhi’s army to suppress the people!

Even if the people cut off the army's food supplies, Gu Lanzhi could purchase them directly in the system mall.

So Gu Lanzhi is a little conflicted now. Should he listen to Li Beichen and not fight with the Northern Territory first, or should he just go all out and take over the Northern Territory in one go?

The Emperor of the Northern Territory felt more at ease when he saw that his ministers were unanimous in their opinions.

Before the Emperor of the Northern Territory could open his mouth to speak, the Right Prime Minister stood up again.

“Your Majesty, I agree with the words of the Left Prime Minister, but I also feel that Dongshun has just taken over Xilin, and the officials in their court have not yet completely taken over Xilin.

At this time, can we also create some trouble on the border between the two countries?

This will make it difficult for Dongshun to deal with all the attention. Wouldn't it be better if we could take this opportunity to seize some land to the west?

When Your Majesty decided to support Dimon, wasn't it also because he wanted to get some grasslands to the west?

Since Dimon has failed, isn't it the same if we just send troops to seize the grassland?"

Hearing the words of the Right Prime Minister, the Emperor of the Northern Territory was moved.

Whether it is supporting Dimon or sending troops to fight, isn't it all for the grasslands to the west?

In that case, what the Right Prime Minister said is quite right!

The Left Prime Minister looked at the Right Prime Minister with disgust and said disapprovingly: "Right Prime Minister, with such a suggestion, aren't you afraid that Gu Lanzhi will also use the 'Sky Fire' to attack our Northern Territory?

After all, isn’t the destruction of Xilin also due to our Northern Territory?

We should not provoke Gu Lanzhi now. If we really push him too far, he will inevitably come to our Northern Territory with the "Sky Fire" just like he did to destroy our 100,000-man army."

"Left Prime Minister, you are wrong. Gu Lanzhi did not use 'Sky Fire' when he attacked Xilin.

Doesn't this mean that the 'Sky Fire' cannot be used casually?

Maybe Dongshun no longer has that 'sky fire'.

In this case, what do we, the good men of the Northern Territory, have to fear? "

The Left Prime Minister was choked by the Right Prime Minister. He didn't know that Dongshun didn't have the "Heavenly Fire" yet. If there really wasn't any, then now would indeed be a good time to send troops.

The emperor of the Northern Territory was also a warmonger. When he heard the words of the right prime minister, his heart became active.

Now that the Left Prime Minister had nothing to say, the Emperor of the Northern Territory became even more eager to make a move.

"Left Prime Minister, do you have any objection to what the Right Prime Minister said?"

The Left Prime Minister glanced at the complacent Right Prime Minister and frowned in disgust.

But he really had nothing to refute the Right Prime Minister's words, so in the end he could only bow to the Emperor of the Northern Territory and said, "This old minister has no objection."

The Emperor of the Northern Territory was delighted when he heard this.

"Well, after the court session, the two prime ministers and the generals will follow me to the imperial study to plan this expedition carefully."
