I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister!

When this news came out, the whole capital was shocked!

It is not that Dawu has never fought wars with other countries over the years. There have been countless big and small battles, but this is the first time in 50 years that he has fought a war with a powerful country that is evenly matched!

At this time, Daxia's national power is booming, and Dawu is deteriorating!

Under such unfavorable circumstances, once Dawu loses, it will bring unimaginable consequences!

In the capital, people are panicked!

"Daxia and Dawu are about to go to war. Dawu is not as strong as Daxia. Once he loses, it will be over!"

"It’s only been a few good days, why did something like this happen?"

"Yes, the good times have just begun, but it turns out there is going to be a war. God will not give us people a way to survive!"

"Pack your things quickly and run away!"

"Other places are even more chaotic, where else can you escape?"

……

In the court, the empress looked at Lin Beifan with regret on her face and said,"Lin Aiqing, you are really right!"

All the officials in the court were too embarrassed to look at Lin Beifan.

At the beginning, Lin Beifan said that after the Prince of Daxia returned, he would most likely start a war, and it was best to take necessary measures to place Xia Qiong under house arrest. They resisted the most strongly and bluntly said it was impossible, but they were all slapped in the face.

After the Prince of Daxia returned, he really immediately launched a war and invaded their Dawu!

Lin Beifan didn't say anything.

It's already happened, nothing can be said about it.

"Your Majesty, now is not the time to regret! The most important thing now is to mobilize soldiers, horses and food, and go to Hulao Pass immediately to protect the border and fight against the soldiers and horses of Daxia!" Li Kaiguang, the Minister of War, said loudly.

The empress cheered up and said majestically:"What Ai Qing said is absolutely true. Now we will immediately mobilize troops, transport grain and grass, and support the front line. We will never let the Daxia army step into my great martial arts!"

At this moment, a guard in golden clothes ran from a distance.

"Report! Urgent report!

The empress frowned:"What's the matter? Tell me!""

Jin Yiwei reported loudly:"Your Majesty, we have just received news from the front line that the Great Xia Dynasty has mobilized 500,000 troops from various domestic parties to rush to Hulao Pass! The prince of Daxia, Xia Qiong, leads the imperial expedition in person!"

"What? Mobilizing another 500,000 troops?"The empress was shocked, and all the officials were shocked.

You know, Daxia already had 300,000 soldiers before. Adding these 500,000 troops, the total number of soldiers has reached 800,000!

This is enough to support a large-scale battle.!

Only a dynasty with a large population and strong strength can send so many soldiers and horses!

The empress stood up and said,"Da Xia is determined to destroy me, it's hateful!"

"Report! Urgent report!"Another royal guard ran over.

A bad premonition surged in the empress's heart:"What's the matter? Tell me!"

"The Jin Yiwei said loudly:"Your Majesty, I have just received news that there are changes in the border areas of the Great Yan Dynasty. Soldiers and horses are mobilized frequently, and the target is directly at me, Da Wu!" The empress's face was gloomy. As soon as Da Xia took action, this Great Yan couldn't sit still. Got it!

He clearly wants to take advantage of the situation and carve up the Dawu Mountains and Rivers!

"This great inflammation is not a good thing either!"

"Report! Urgent report!"Another royal guard ran in.

The empress' face became even more ugly:"What's the matter? Tell me!"

"Your Majesty, I have just received news from Jiangnan that the King of Jiangnan has mobilized his troops.……"

"Report! Urgent report!"Another Jin Yiwei ran in.

"Your Majesty, we have just received news from Northern Hebei that the King of Northern Hebei has mobilized his troops.……"

"Report! Urgent report!"

……

One piece of bad news after another spread into the Dawu Court!

It can be said that this Great Xia invasion is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion, and the ambitious vassal kings and border countries that have been waiting for a long time can finally sit still!

They all want to take advantage of the troubled waters and influence their whole bodies with one move!

The empress' face was extremely gloomy!

Baiguan’s face doesn’t look good either!

Although Dawu is strong, he can't deal with so many forces!

Just dealing with one Daxia is already stretched thin!

There is also the Great Yan Dynasty that is not inferior to Great Xia, the major dynasties with strong soldiers and horses, and the armies of the vassal kings...

Once they gather together to attack, Dawu will be finished!

The empress asked with a solemn face:"My dear friends, do you have any good ideas?"

"His Majesty!"An old general stood up, raised his hands and said loudly:"Now all forces are mobilizing troops, and it takes time! I estimate it will take about a month!"

"Therefore, for the current plan, the war at Hulao Pass must be resolved as quickly as possible and the Daxia troops can be driven back. Only then can the forces of all parties be severely frightened so that they dare not act rashly! Otherwise, the longer it goes on, the worse it will be for us! Your Majesty, please take a closer look!

The empress nodded:"What the old general said is absolutely true!""

"But one month is not enough time. It is too late to dispatch troops and generals!"

"Yes, there are still 800,000 troops in Daxia, and they can’t be killed just by killing them!"

"We are now facing siege from all forces, and currently we can only mobilize up to 500,000 people to support Hulao Pass!"

"There is a huge disparity in military strength. Just holding on is already a big deal!"

"What a good thing!"

……

Everyone looked sad.

The empress said loudly:"If you can't think of a way, you have to think of it! When Dawu is finished, you will be finished too!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"The officials grimaced.

The Empress majestically glanced at the officials, and finally fixed her eyes on Lin Beifan. She asked with hope:"Lin Aiqing, do you have any ideas to solve the Hulao Pass war within a month and repel the big army? Xia soldiers and horses?

Lin Beifan frowned:"Your Majesty, this matter is not easy to handle!"

The empress' eyes lit up:"Is it difficult to handle?" Is it possible to do something else? Dear, what can you do? Lin

Beifan's heart was full of"f*ck"!

Can it be interpreted this way?

Lin Beifan cupped his hands and said with a wry smile:"Your Majesty, this war is not a child's play!" The minister is far away in the court and knows very little about the situation at Hulao Pass. There is really nothing he can do!"

"What Aiqing said is absolutely true! The empress nodded:"Let's do this. I order you to be the supervisor and go to Hulao Pass immediately!" When necessary, you can seize military power and command operations! We must resolve the Hulao Pass war within a month, repel the Daxia troops, and protect the integrity of our Dawu Mountains and Rivers!"

Lin Beifan was dumbfounded, and all the officials were dumbfounded!

Lin Beifan was actually asked to supervise the army? You know, this job is usually done by eunuchs, either eunuchs or officials from the Ministry of War, or commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards. No matter what, it will never be Lin Beifan's turn. This governor of the capital!

Even if he becomes the supervisor of the army, he has no problem, but he still allows Lin Beifan to seize military power and command the battle?

What kind of trouble is this!

He is a civil servant, not a general who leads troops to fight!

"Your Majesty, is this inappropriate? Lin Beifan asked cautiously.

The empress shook her head:"There is nothing inappropriate. If I think you can do it, then you can do it!""

"But who is in charge of the capital? Lin Beifan asked again

"I'll take care of the small things below, and let them come to me for the big things!"The empress said loudly

"But……"

"Dear, please don't refuse!"The Empress said loudly:"Now the Great Xia is approaching fiercely, and I, Dawu, are besieged on all sides. At this time of life and death, there are not many people I can trust, and you are one of them!"

"You have always been resourceful and quick-witted, and you can often find new ways to solve problems! Although this time is critical, I still believe you can do it! My dear, go ahead! With you here, I feel at ease!"

Looking up at the empress's eager and expectant eyes, and the faint sadness behind them, thinking of the empress's kindness to him these days, Lin Beifan felt a little touched in his heart, and said with cupped hands:"I accept the decree!"

"good! OK! The empress clapped her hands and shouted:"At this time of life and death, all officials must not slack off and cooperate with Lin Aiqing's deployment!" If you disobey, you will be dealt with according to military law! Lin Aiqing, I will give you the military talisman and the Shangfang sword again, as if I were here in person, you can do whatever you want! All the officials said in unison:"

Your Majesty, this is inappropriate. Please think again!"

The empress rejected all opinions and said,"I have made up my mind, don't say anything more!""

The officials shook their heads, what a fool!

So, Lin Beifan held the military talisman and Shang Fang's sword, faced the civil and military officials, and said:"My lords, the situation is critical, put all past grievances aside, please give your full support to my actions! If you lose this battle, everything you have will be in vain!"

"Yes, Master Lin!" Baiguan said helplessly.

Since Minxin City was established, they have been tied to the same boat as Lin Beifan, and also tied to Dawu.

Therefore, no matter how unhappy they are, they can only fully support Lin Beifan.

Otherwise, as he said, If they lose this battle, everything they have will be in vain.

So, Lin Beifan began to mobilize troops and generals, and mobilize food and grass. Although the officials were corrupt, they were still very capable and acted like the wind.

Whether it was food, grass or officers and soldiers, they immediately mobilized , got on the hovercraft, and went straight down the river to Hulao Pass to support the front line.

It has to be said that since the hovercraft, the power mobilized by the Dawu court has increased several times.

In less than a day, Lin Beifan mobilized millions of Food, weapons, and an army of 100,000

"The troops are valuable and fast, let's set off now!"Lin Beifan waved

"Yes, Master Lin!"

The hovercraft once again connected with the boat, carrying everyone forward in a mighty way.

On both sides of the river, there were people escorting them.

They finally lived a good life, and they only hope that everything goes well on this trip and return in triumph.

"Mr. Lin, take care along the way!"

"Be sure to come back safely, I'm waiting for your good news!"

"This battle must be won!"

……

Among them were Li Shishi, Xiao Princess, Li Yuxin and others, waving on both sides of the river bank with a hint of worry on their faces.

Lin Beifan waved his hand and shouted:"Don't worry, I will be back soon! Jingtai, you must protect them!" The old monk said loudly:"Master, don't worry, the young monk will keep everyone safe, Amitabha!"

Lin Beifan nodded with confidence. , the old monk has the strength of a master and is enough to protect others.

In addition to the old monk, there is also Bai Guanyin secretly.

Such double-layer insurance, if it can't protect you, it's useless even if he comes!
