You are squeezing your head to enter the court council, so naturally you should understand that there are some things that you should bear by yourself.

"Since you are asking for my opinion, I think the battlefield in the Western Regions should increase its troops!"

Li Ru gritted his teeth, thought about it, and then said slowly and lightly: "The battle against Rome is the first thing to bear the brunt of today. As far as I know, the Roman Empire is also increasing its troops on the battlefield. We can't let the front line This is unfair to the soldiers!"

"Hahaha!"

Cheng Pu and others immediately smiled when they heard the words, and they looked at the cabinet ministers triumphantly: "What Li Dadu said is true, is it possible that our great Wu court has more than one million troops, and let the soldiers fight against the enemy?" No!"

"However, I think the time is not ripe for increasing troops now!"

Li Ru felt several pairs of sharp eyes falling on him, and quickly added: "The battle against the Roman Empire did not happen overnight. We have to consider the ability of the imperial court. It must be a very difficult thing to prepare the food and pay for the general, so I suggest that it is possible to increase the number of troops, but it is most appropriate to wait until the beginning of spring tomorrow to increase the number of troops in the Western Regions battlefield!"

"What Li Dadu said is true."

When Zhang Zhao and others heard this, their gloomy faces relaxed a lot.

Sun Quan shook his head, Li Wenyou is really an old fox, he can move a thousand catties when he is a splint, and eat well on both sides, this is an extraordinary skill.

"See, this is Li Wenyou's skill!"

"It's really powerful!" Zhang Hong narrowed his eyes slightly: "It's a good step for His Majesty to let him enter the court council. He can take into account the conflicts between the two sides!"

"Your Majesty!" Cheng Pu thought for a long time, and after a while, he turned his head and looked at Sun Quan questioningly.

He wanted to know Sun Quan's mind.

"Increasing troops is inevitable!"

Sun Quan thought for a while, and said, "But this matter really can't be rushed. You can make preparations first. After the spring of next year, you can increase your troops to the battlefields of the Western Regions!"

For the future imperial council, he needs to be a good leader, and he must respect the few and obey the many.

"Yes!"

Although the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department were a little unwilling, they still nodded their heads to show their obedience.

In the first imperial court council, the cabinet still took the lead in the end. The Military Aircraft Department's plan to increase troops in the Western Regions was temporarily put on hold. At present, all the energy of the imperial court is focused on the livelihood of the people in the states.

……

After the parliament dispersed, Sun Quan walked back to the imperial study with a somewhat relaxed and happy pace.

"Your Majesty, what is the situation of the court council?"

Guo Jia and Xu Shu immediately greeted them.

They also want to know how the court council is going.

After all, this will be a brand new reform above the imperial court.

Once the mode of the imperial court and parliament is stabilized, Sun Quan may not be able to speak up even if he wants to speak up in the future.

"It's ok!"

Sun Quan sat down, drank a cup of strong tea, and said lightly: "Generally speaking, this time the parliament went smoothly, I didn't interfere, but the military aircraft department was suppressed by the cabinet, and the increase of troops must be postponed for a few days. months, at least until the beginning of spring next year to increase troops in the Western Regions battlefield!"

"Li Ru defected?"

Both of them are smart people who make decisions, and they know a lot about the court council, so they understand the situation very well. Only Li Ru played a role in this situation.

"It's not considered betrayal!"

Sun Quan shook his head: "This jack-of-all-trades skill is not small. Based on the idea of ​​not offending both sides, we have been making peace with each other, but this time the plan for increasing troops proposed by the Military Aircraft Department is indeed a bit out of date. This situation was expected. !"

"What about the Bashu Army?"

Xu Shu's face was a bit ugly, and he said: "We are all ready. The entire army of the Bashu Army has been heading north one after another. It will take at most three days to reach Dunhuang. As long as the decision to increase troops is passed, within three days. Through the Silk Road, increase troops to Anxi!"

"Wait a minute!"

Sun Quan sighed and said: "Maybe we were thinking too simply before, we only saw the situation in the Western Regions battlefield, but we forgot that our center of gravity is in the Central Plains after all, it will take time to rectify the Central Plains, and we also have to consider the cabinet In terms of endurance, the battle of the Central Plains last year and this year's decisive battle rest in peace. These are all big battles and cost a lot. Now that the cabinet is carrying a heavy national debt, we have to give the cabinet time to ease!"

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid we won't be able to wait long. The changes in the battlefields of the Western Regions cannot be controlled by us!" Guo Jia said in a low voice.

"Is there a battle report back?"

Sun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"This is a battle report that just came back!"

Guo Jia mentioned the last battle report: "Zhang Xi's Guanzhong Army has all been thrown into the Mesopotamian battlefield, and Tai Shici's Snow Leopard Army is also gradually pushing its main force westward, but the Roman army is not far behind, and their main force is also pressing After crossing the Sicily River, ten days ago, the soldiers of the two armies fought a bloody battle on the Sicily River.

"Your Majesty, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is a piece of news from Jin Yiwei. It seems that the Parthian Army is about to surrender to the Roman army?" Xu Shu added.

"what?"

When Sun Quan heard this, he couldn't help but turn pale with astonishment: "How could the Parthian Army surrender to the Roman Empire?"

"The news from Jin Yiwei is that the Kingdom of Armenia was secretly incorporated into the Roman Empire a month ago and became a province of the Roman Empire!" Xu Shu said in a low voice, "The Province of Armenia!"

"The Kingdom of Armenia, the last remaining kingdom of the Parthian Empire, is also the last reliance of Vologasis V. If he wants to stand up, he must rely on the territory and military strength of the Kingdom of Armenia."

Sun Quan suddenly understood in his heart: "The Roman Empire is going to draw the bottom line on the last frontier of Anxi!"

After all, he underestimated Severus, the Roman emperor, and ate the territory of the Parthian Empire himself. Severus did not dare to fall behind. He also wanted to eat the largest northwest border of the Parthian Empire, as well as the remaining troops of the Parthian Army.

Severus's reaction was so fast!

"Your Majesty, once the Parthian army completely surrenders to the Roman army, the balance of the Mesopotamian battlefield will be broken. They will come down from the north and attack the main force of our army. I'm afraid our strength will be a little weak!"

Guo Jia said: "If you can't increase your troops in time, let alone fight against Rome, you may not even be able to defend the Anxi territory!"

"Can you let them shrink the line of defense first?"

Sun Quan was silent for a while, his brows frowned, and he said: "We were too anxious before. It took us a lot of time to eat the territory of Guishuang. Now that the huge territory of the Anxi Empire has just been swallowed, it is time Aiming at Mesopotamia, I always feel a little indigestion!"

"Your Majesty, the arrow is on the string now, so we have to fire!" Guo Jia said, "Restricting the defense line at this time will hurt morale. If you are not careful, it may lead to the defeat of the army!"

"Have they asked for help now?" Sun Quan asked suddenly.

"Not yet!"

"Then wait!"

Sun Quan took a deep breath: "Zhang Xi is not a brave person, Zhuge Liang is also a calm person. They can't hold on, and they will definitely rescue them. Since they haven't asked for help now, we have to believe that they can withstand this period of time!"

"Yes!"
