Chapter 732 Wuji Strikes Back! [Eighth Update of Qixi Explosion! ]
"Under such circumstances, even if we are victorious and our momentum is like a rainbow, there is no doubt about this. However, if Marshal Ye must be allowed to lead these soldiers and horses, continue to expand the territory, storm Jie Tianlan City, and even kill Entering the hinterland of Blue Wind... This is simply a great achievement, this is simply forcing the hero to die! "
"Princess Lanfeng Wenren Chuchu's words are certainly intimidating, but they are not necessarily alarmist. It is one thing that the Lanfeng Empire did not dare to take action for a while, but when we attacked and they fought back, it was Another thing."
Zuo Wuji added: "As far as the current reality is concerned, after Marshal Ye successfully defeated the enemy, he still spared no effort to advance vigorously, attacking for seven days and nights, and retreating this time. The essence of this is to use a kind of unparalleled power. Posture, to intimidate the enemy! To put it bluntly, or to put it more harshly, Marshal Ye’s troops are actually no longer capable of fighting! "
"If you try your best to start a war, you will only expose your shortcomings, let the enemy see the flaws, see through the key points, and turn victory into defeat! Just imagine, as long as he has a little combat power, Marshal Ye will not need 180,000 people to counterattack How could an army of 1.5 million people with such unparalleled courage give up the attack when they have the upper hand? "
"Since he dares to use 180,000 people to fight to the death against 1.5 million enemy troops, is he still afraid of expanding his territory and continuing to build supreme achievements? Isn't this an obvious thing?"
"Marshal Ye has given up even the unparalleled feats that are within his reach. He has already shown how bad the situation of the troops under his command has become. I'm afraid even being strong on the outside and being strong on the inside is a good thing!"
"Perhaps we should be thankful, or even grateful, to Princess Chu Chu. Her intimidation and threats actually gave Ye Shuai a logical reason to retreat, bringing this great victory to a perfect conclusion!"
Zuo Wuji's words were very reasonable and well-founded. Everyone who heard these words could not help but nod secretly, including His Majesty the Emperor, who also believed deeply.
His Majesty the Emperor is also someone who has been on the battlefield. How could he not know that what Zuo Wuji said was all the truth?
"In the final analysis, the so-called karmic relationship with Princess Lanfeng is just an excuse for Marshal Ye to retreat, not even a reason." Zuo Wuji sneered: "Here, I solemnly advise some people , it’s better not to dwell on this matter, otherwise, under His Majesty’s wisdom and prowess, you are just looking for trouble.”
One of the ministers snorted and said: "Master Zuo's remarks are a bit overgeneralized; if Marshal Ye's troops are really in such a bleak state that they are unable to fight anymore, why don't they make it clear in the battle report? The battle report is full of great achievements; isn't this the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
"Because Marshal Ye doesn't dare." Zuo Wuji snorted coldly, looking at the minister with his eyes like blades: "No matter how talented Marshal Ye is, he is still a human being, not a god, and it is impossible. He is truly omnipotent. He has been fighting alone since he has commanded the army. It goes without saying that he has few major generals. However, even the most basic rations of materials, until now, are only what he brought with him when he went on an expedition. Since then, Your Majesty urged you several times to supply the army, but he was still detained! I would like to ask, who is the real person who committed the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
"So many people from top to bottom hope that Marshal Ye will die in the battle. It is in vain that Marshal Ye is fighting for the country and relieving the suffering of the people. How can we feel at ease when we hand over our back to such a person? No matter for others or for ourselves. How dare Marshal Ye report back the true situation? Who knew that there was no traitor in the Lanfeng Empire?"
"There is a chance in a million that there really is a traitor. Even if there is no traitor, it is just the group of people who are obsessed with killing Ye Shuai. If there is a chance, who knows that they will not be so bold and leak the secrets, wouldn't they want to kill these hundreds of battles?" Is it true that all the details of the remaining heroes who are unable to fight are being handed over to the Blue Wind Empire? If this is also a crime of deceiving the emperor, why bother?"
Zuo Wuji's words were as sharp as a knife, and his words often contained market-like remarks, and his thoughts were arrogant, but no one dared to accuse him!
On the throne, His Majesty the Emperor's face at this moment was as gloomy as a dark cloud, and it was no longer as sunny and cheerful as before.
"If the logistics supplies are sufficient, with Ye Shuai in charge and the soldiers using their lives, it is not impossible to attack the important town of Lanfeng in one go, or even capture half of Lanfeng! Such an earth-shattering victory is the only one in history. Not only was it unprecedented, but it was also difficult for latecomers to imitate and surpass it. But unfortunately, due to various helplessness and various negative influences, they were forced to stop the advance of the soldiers and retreated in tears under such a good situation! , is it Marshal Ye who is committing the crime? "
Zuo Wuji yelled angrily: "It's you who are just for your own selfish reasons and who truly don't care about the empire who are committing crimes!"
"Because of your cowardice, your children were kept in the Imperial Guards, the last strength of the empire! However, because of your cowardice, you disrupted the morale of the army before the expedition and were killed by Marshal Ye to bring order to the army. So you hold grudges in vain. He used all kinds of dirty methods morally to deal with those soldiers who are fighting for the country! "
"Have you ever sent out even a single reinforcement in such a long time?! No! Even though His Majesty gave repeated orders, the staff below just refused to let go! You have no food supplies, not even a grain of food and grass. Give it to Ye Shuai!"
"Also, what about the soldiers' wages in the front? Have you taken them out? Don't tell me that supplies are tight and that a good cook cannot cook without rice. You may be able to use this excuse to prevaricate about the reinforcements and food, but what about the wages? The empire is not short of money now, but have you ever issued a penny of wages? No, still not!"
"You clearly disregard the safety of the country. Even if you use all kinds of dirty means, you want to kill Marshal Ye and avenge your personal grudges! How dare Marshal Ye report the real situation on his side? Even if he doesn't care about himself, what are the brave men and iron-blooded soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the empire?!"
Zuo Wuji's eyes were red and his voice was a little hoarse, but it was his hoarse voice that echoed so passionately in the court. There was silence all around, and no one spoke to refute for a long time.
Finally, a minister protested: "In recent years, the empire has been surrounded by enemies and wars have been fought one after another. The losses are getting heavier day by day. The national treasury has long been overwhelmed. Where can we get more soldiers and rice? It is true that the national treasury is very rich, but even if there is money, there is no place to buy. Even if we have the intention, there is no place to use it... These are all current realities, but how can we be blamed?"
"How dare you!" The one who said this was not Zuo Wuji, but His Majesty the Emperor. His Majesty the Emperor finally couldn't stand it anymore, slammed the table, pointed at the halberd and cursed: "Cheng Ziqi, what you said is simply bullshit!"
The ministers were shocked.
