Chapter 397 Chen Yi's Strength



Chapter 397 Chen Yi's Strength

What did they hear?
This time the Daliao Kingdom sent [-] troops to support them, but less than half of them returned.

When did the Daliao Kingdom have such a good relationship with them?

No complaints? !
How did this Chen Shilang do it?And they seem to have heard the news before that the Daliao Kingdom seems to be a long-term ally with them this time.

What kind of ecstasy soup did this Chen Shilang pour into the Daliao Kingdom to do such a disadvantageous thing?

And it seems to be willing, it's too scary, this Chen Shilang is too scary, he really has to help count the money after being sold!
I was also a little shocked, her seriousness was different from the ministers.

What the Empress thought was that if this was the case, the Xuanluo Kingdom lost 5 troops, and the Daliao Kingdom lost [-] troops. These two countries have almost as many troops.

Does it mean that in a short period of time, their military strength will not be able to catch up with their Great Xia Kingdom?
After all, they consumed less than 2 people in total.

For the large Wu Kingdom with a large population, 2 people are not too many, and there are more than [-] people in Longxi alone.

So you do the math and you know the result.

The empress had an idea, is it true that if the Xuanluo Kingdom refuses to accept this time, the Daxia Kingdom's dispatch of troops will be the result of victory?
"Chen Shilang, if we send troops in Daxia this time, is there any possibility of destroying the Xuanluo Kingdom?"

All the ministers in the hall stopped, looking at the empress who had such thoughts in surprise, and at the same time began to think in combination with Chen Yi's words just now, it seemed possible.

Chen Yi was not so optimistic, with a wry smile on his face.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Your Majesty thinks, why didn't I take advantage of the victory and pursue the attack all the way to the old lair of the Xuanluo Kingdom?"

The empress froze for a moment, then asked obediently, "Why?"

"It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't. Xuanluo's army has indeed suffered heavy losses this time, and they are all elite troops. But don't forget, all the people of Xuanluo can ride horses, and women are no worse than men."

"If we really piss them off and Xuanluo Kingdom goes all out and resists desperately, we may not be able to win. Moreover, Daliao Kingdom is watching from the side. If we destroy Xuanluo Kingdom, will Daliao Kingdom sit back and do nothing? "

Chen Yi looked at the ministers around him and continued to explain: "We are not the only ones who know the truth about the death of lips and cold teeth. Daliao Kingdom also knows it. They will no longer try their best to help us. They will most likely cooperate with Xuanluo Kingdom to deal with it together. We are.”

Hearing what Chen Yihui said, the Empress was a little depressed and disappointed.

Chen Yi saw it, and then hit him hard.

"And Your Majesty, do you think our current national strength can still support the war? We have people and soldiers, but where are the military pay? Where is the armor? Where are the weapons? Is there any money in the treasury?!"

Every time Chen Yi asked a question, the empress felt a little guilty.

Yes, it seems that she squandered too much before. If she had just ascended the throne, she might still have some confidence.

Now there is no such thing at all. This time, Chen Yi and himself blackmailed the second prince of the Daliao Kingdom for the food and grass of the Xuanluo Kingdom this time. Otherwise, it is really poor now.

Chen Yi's rhetorical questions not only awakened the queen's dream, but also awakened all the ministers.

They seem to be really poor now, the military salary for this battle seems to be paid by Chen Shilang, where did this kid come from, to have such means?

From this moment on, no one dared to underestimate this fierce Chen Shilang.

Sure enough, people scolded the empress directly when they wanted to scold the empress before. They have confidence, and it's not groundless.

The ministers who wanted to curry favor with Chen Yi to get benefits from him had basically retreated now.

It's not because of anything else, it's the things that other people do, and if they put it on them, who has the ability to do it? !
No, not even one tenth of it can be done!
So is this kind of person they can use casually?
It would be great not to offend, and it is absolutely unthinkable to take advantage of it now.

Chen Yi would not have thought that it was his summary and analysis that saved him a lot of trouble.

It also let all the ministers know that Chen Shilang is not an easy person to provoke, and he needs to weigh his own ability in dealing with Chen Yi in the future.

The empress didn't think so much, she is an emperor, the more powerful the people under her hands, the better.

"The widow understands, so how should we solve this matter?"

In fact, Chen Yi has been thinking about this matter all the time, and when he heard the empress ask this question, he could only tell the truth.

"Return to Your Majesty, I haven't thought about it yet, please allow me to think about it before reporting to Your Majesty, but regarding the envoy of the Xuanluo Kingdom, I suggest restricting his movements and shutting him down for a period of time, so as to teach him a lesson and let him know his inadequacy." The land I stepped on is called the Great Wu Kingdom."

The empress nodded and felt it was credible, so she directly instructed the officials of the Ministry of Rites who were in charge of receiving envoys from the Xuanluo Kingdom.

"Did you hear that? Just follow what Chen Shilang said. The food doesn't have to be too good, as long as you don't starve to death."

Officials from the Ministry of Rites immediately went out to lead the order: "Yes, Your Majesty, I accept the order."

The empress looked at the other ministers, and asked, "Is there anything else? If not, retreat!"

The ministers looked at each other, and there was nothing else to do. Even if there was something, now is not a very good time, so the empress directly announced her withdrawal from the court.

The ministers lined up to leave the palace. At the gate of the palace, as soon as Chen Yi went out, he saw the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials waiting on the side. The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

Chen Yi waved his hand and greeted: "Let's go, two ministers, I'll treat you, but you can choose the place, and you know that I'm not very familiar with it."

The Secretary of the Ministry of Justice was also not polite to Chen Yi, nodded and said: "Okay, I will not be polite, I will pick a place, let's go, just get in the car and follow me."

Afterwards, the three of them got into their own carriages, and Chen Yi followed at the end. As the carriage shook, his mind was thinking about Xuanluo Kingdom.

This matter is also easy to solve, just warn and deter the Xuanluo country, let them know that their Dawu country will not be afraid of another war, but their Xuanluo country may not be able to afford it.

But this matter is also more difficult to deal with. How to deter and intimidate is very important.

And what kind of method should be used, you must pay attention to it.

As for the envoys of the Xuanluo Kingdom here, they are not very important. This is to act on orders, and they have no real power at all.

With a sway of the carriage, Chen Yi recovered from his contemplation, lifted the curtain and glanced outside.

He had already arrived at a restaurant, which Chen Yi had never been to before. The ministers of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Punishment had already got off the carriage, and Chen Yi hurried down as well.
