Chapter 126 The entire army attacks and the civil strife in the Great Zhou ends!
After hearing Chu Yang's words, Zhou Yu paused waving his feather fan and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He didn't expect that the Seventh Prince, who seemed to only know how to enjoy himself, actually had such insights into military strategies!
"Haha, it seems that Your Highness is more talented than me." Zhou Yu laughed loudly, his eyes full of admiration.
"No, it's still the master who gave the right instructions."
Chu Yang said this modestly, but he was secretly proud in his heart.
I am a systematic person, and I am proficient in my own military tactics. This little trick is just a drop in the bucket.
However, Chu Yang was well aware that an arrogant army would eventually fail, so he maintained a humble attitude.
He pondered for a moment, as if he suddenly remembered something, and frowned slightly, "Sir, there is still one thing I don't understand."
"Your Highness, please speak."
"If we go all out to attack Japan, and Yuenan takes advantage of the situation to invade, or if there is civil unrest in the Great Zhou, how should we respond?"
Zhou Yu stroked his beard calmly and said with a smile, "Your Highness is worrying too much. The fate of the Great Zhou Dynasty has not yet ended. The old fox Emperor Yongning cherishes his life very much. As long as we do not attack the capital, he will never act rashly."
"Besides, we are resisting foreign enemies. If Emperor Yongning dares to mobilize troops, he will be cursed for all eternity!"
"As for Yuenan Country..."
Zhou Yu paused, a gleam in his eyes, "Those barbarians in Yuenan are greedy by nature, and have no integrity at all. They are indeed a trouble."
Chu Yang raised his sword-like eyebrows and sneered, "Sir, do you mean that those monkeys will also come to share a piece of the pie?"
"Exactly."
Zhou Yu nodded. "However, Your Highness, don't worry too much. Although Yuenan has a lot of troops, most of them are just a mob and can't stand a single blow."
"Moreover, they are located in the southern barbarian land, and it is inconvenient to transport food and supplies. As long as we fight quickly and capture Japan, they will not dare to act rashly."
"Sir, that makes sense."
Chu Yang nodded, but he had other plans in mind.
He would have to deal with those monkeys in Yuenan Kingdom sooner or later, but now was not the time.
"In your opinion, sir, how should we deal with Yuenan Kingdom?" Chu Yang asked.
Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "In my humble opinion, we should use courtesy first and then force."
"Your Highness can send an envoy to Yuenan Kingdom and pretend to be friendly with them. Just say that we are attacking Japan to avenge them and help them expand their territory. Then let them wait and see in peace."
"Well, sir, this is a brilliant plan. Make friends nearby and attack from far away!"
Chu Yang's eyes lit up, and he secretly praised Zhou Yu for his cunningness. This tactic was to stabilize Yuenan Kingdom first and then defeat them one by one. It was really a smart move.
"but,"
Zhou Yu changed the subject, "We must also be prepared for both situations. If Yuenan Kingdom is ungrateful and insists on being our enemy, then we cannot be soft-hearted and must teach them a lesson!"
“Don’t worry, sir. I know what’s going on.” A cold light flashed in Chu Yang’s eyes.
He is not a good man. He will kill anyone who dares to stand in his way of revenge, no matter if he is the Emperor of Japan or the Lord of Yuenan, he must die!
After the discussion, Chu Yang immediately gave the order for the entire army to be on high alert!
He knew that this battle would be an extremely difficult one, and if he was not careful, he would lose everything.
But he, Chu Yang, is never afraid of challenges!
a few days later.
Chu Yang led an army of 100,000 and marched to the Japanese Islands.
For this expedition, Chu Yang divided the army into three routes.
Led by Wang Meng and Pan Feng, they took the "White Dragon" as a flank to spy on the main island of Japan;
One group was led by Sima Yi and Xing Daorong, who took the "Red Dragon" as the vanguard to attack Kyushu Island;
The last group, led by Chu Yang, Zhou Yu and Zhang Liao, boarded the "Hailong" and sat in the center of the army, heading straight for Japan!
The three armies formed a pincer attack, ready to conquer the Japanese archipelago in one fell swoop!
the other side.
The sea breeze is howling on the top of Qiongzhou City.
Chu Qi looked at the huge fleet that gradually moved away until it disappeared on the horizon, his eyes complicated and indecipherable.
He tightened his cloak, as if this was the only way to resist the chill mixed in the sea breeze.
"Your Highness, what are you thinking about?"
The counselor beside him noticed that he looked strange and asked softly.
Chu Qi retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at the brightly lit Qiongzhou City behind him, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Tell me, what will happen if I cut off Brother Seven's escape route now?"
Upon hearing this, the counselor was horrified and immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, you must not do this! The Seventh Prince is now on his way to conquer Japan and expand the territory for our Great Zhou. If Your Highness does this now..."
"Okay, get up, I was just saying it casually."
Chu Qi waved his hands impatiently. He knew that he couldn’t touch Chu Yang now. He hadn’t lived long enough!
"Seventh Brother has come out in full force this time. He really thinks highly of those Japanese dwarves."
Chu Qi walked to the city wall, looked at the dark sea, and muttered to himself, "But isn't he afraid of a fire in the backyard?"
The counselor lowered his head and did not respond. He knew what Chu Qi meant, but there were some things that he, as a subject, could not say.
"Tell me, if I take advantage of this opportunity to conquer Yuenan Kingdom, do you think people in the world will look at me with new eyes?"
Chu Qi suddenly asked, with a hint of excitement in his tone that was hard to conceal.
The counselor was shocked and quickly advised: "Your Highness, although Yuenan Kingdom is not strong, it is not so easy to deal with, and now the Seventh Prince has already set out to fight."
"Okay, I see."
Chu Qi interrupted him impatiently. He knew in his heart that now was not the time to take action against Yue Nan Country. At least he had to wait until Chu Yang had established a firm foothold in Japan.
"Your Highness, it is hard to predict whether the Seventh Prince will go out on this expedition. It is better for us to wait and see what happens."
The counselor suggested cautiously.
Chu Qi glanced at him without saying anything, but just looked into the distance with deep eyes, as if he wanted to see through the vast sea and see the battle situation thousands of miles away.
at the same time.
Luoyang City, thousands of miles away, was also stirred up by Chu Yang's expedition.
"What? You mean Old Seven, he took all his troops to fight against Japan?"
Inside the Luoyang City Lord's Mansion, Chu Yun suddenly stood up from his chair, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
The scalding hot tea splashed onto his brocade robe, but he was completely unaware. He just stared with his eyes wide open, a look of disbelief on his face.
"Your Highness, please calm down. The news is absolutely true. The Seventh Prince has already led the Black Shark Army and the fleet of Shuiyun Island to set off. They should have arrived in the waters of Japan by now."
The scout who came to report knelt on the ground and spoke tremblingly.
Chu Yun's face was gloomy and he paced back and forth in the room, feeling anxious.
He never thought that Chu Yang would be so bold as to come out in full force to attack Japan at this time!
"This Old Seven, is he crazy?!"
Chu Yun gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't he afraid of a fire in the backyard?!"
Chu Yang's move was tantamount to giving him his back. As long as he wanted, he could lead his troops south at any time and take over the territory that Chu Yang had worked so hard to build.
