"Once the five thousand troops come out, things will not be that simple."

Lu Yingwu was a little surprised when he heard that Zhou Zheng had borrowed troops, and then he looked solemn.

In the Zhou Dynasty, there were special procedures and regulations for deploying troops. Even princes and princes could not mobilize troops at will without a transfer order, otherwise they would be charged with treason.

After all, soldiers are the most important thing to a country!

The appearance of five thousand elites will inevitably attract the attention of the court immediately. At that time, the situation will no longer be controllable by Lu Yingwu.

"The war in the north is tense at the moment. If the court learns at this time that the Marquis of Zhenbei is deploying troops privately, it may arouse unnecessary suspicion."

Although Lu Yingwu said it tactfully, Zhou Zheng still heard some of the key information.

"After so many years, has Your Majesty still started to be wary of grandpa?"

The pupils shrank slightly, and a trace of uneasiness filled Zhou Zheng's heart.

What a hero Zhenbeihou is, he has won the trust of two generations of emperors.

Everyone thought that the Holy Spirit was wise and immediately handed over all matters in the northern border to the Marquis of Zhenbei to command the three armies. This was such a great trust and favor.

But the fact seems not to be the case.

Lu Yingwu remained silent and did not answer.

Because these things were not something he was qualified to speculate on.

"Then what is the purpose of grandpa letting General Lu station troops here?"

Even Lu Yingwu was vaguely aware of the change in His Majesty's attitude. How could Xiao Mu, as the Marquis of Zhenbei, not know.

I originally thought that Xiao Mu secretly stationed troops here because of him, but obviously, that was not the case.

"The Marquis of Zhenbei is worried about Daxia's surprise attack on Quancheng."

"I was ordered to station troops here to ensure the safety of the entire Quan City."

He smiled bitterly, but Lu Yingwu had nothing to hide in this regard.

The war situation in the north is now tense. Although the Daxia Kingdom has sent 300,000 troops, it is obviously impossible to tear a hole in front of the Zhenbei Marquis and send the army south.

The longer the fierce battle lasts, the more detrimental it will be to Daxia.

But Quancheng is not far from where the two armies are fighting. If Daxia takes the opportunity to capture Quancheng, it can open up a second battlefield.

Even blocking possible connections between the Zhou Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty.

By then, the Marquis of Zhenbei will have to take care of two battlefields, and he will inevitably be overwhelmed!

Hearing this, Zhou Zheng also suddenly realized.

"That way it all makes sense."

Zhou Zheng took a deep breath, and his eyes glowed a little.

He had been a little puzzled before that a mere spring city would actually attract the prince of Daxia Kingdom. It seemed unreasonable both emotionally and rationally, but now everything is clear.

Daxia Kingdom is using Xue Shi and others' methods to quietly control Quancheng.

Then secretly gather troops in Quancheng and open a second battlefield without anyone noticing.

At that time, it was too late for Zhenbeihou to react.

"If grandpa is fighting in the north, and suddenly a large army sets off from Quancheng and goes deep into the hinterland of our Great Zhou Dynasty, then the entire battle situation will be completely changed!"

To the south of Quancheng, although there are other cities, it is almost impossible to form a large-scale resistance!

"If we send troops from Quancheng and join forces with Daxia's army to attack grandpa from both sides, it is more likely that grandpa will be attacked from both sides and fall into an absolutely passive position."

Take a deep breath, no matter which method the other side uses, they will take the initiative in the war.

At that time, not only the military power, but also the court's attitude towards Zhenbei Hou would undergo a 180-degree change.

If the Holy One really had doubts about Zhenbeihou, such a change would be enough to plunge Zhenbeihou into an abyss of eternal destruction!

The more he thought about the truth, the more Zhou Zheng felt a chill on his back!

"Your Majesty, your expectations are good."

"This is also the key reason for preparing to hide the general in Xianyang Valley."

When Lu Yingwu heard Zhou Zheng's analysis, a hint of astonishment appeared on his face.

Because what Zhou Zheng said was almost exactly the same as Zhenbei Hou’s worries.

But Zhou Zheng has never actually been on the battlefield, let alone received special training, so why does he have such keen insight! ?

"Then how can we mobilize this army?"

"Unless Daxia Kingdom raids Quancheng, no one will be able to mobilize them."

Shaking his head, although he didn't know why Zhou Zheng questioned borrowing troops, Lu Yingwu's attitude was still very firm.

Xieyang Valley is fifty miles away from Quancheng. If he divides his troops and lends them to Zhou Zheng at this time, once there is a strange change in Daxia, even Lu Yingwu's ten heads will be chopped off.

"What if I tell you that Daxia has now set its sights on Quancheng and has made further moves?"

"The military order is like a mountain. Unless Daxia sends troops, we must not expose our whereabouts."

"Does General Lu know that the prince of Daxia will appear in Quancheng soon!?"

Seeing Lu Yingwu's firm attitude, Zhou Zheng also had a headache.

All we can do now is throw out our last trump card!

When the two armies are fighting, if they can capture the other side's prince, it will be enough to affect the outcome of the battle!

"No matter what the reason is, the general will not borrow troops."

"Please forgive me, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

When he heard that the prince of Daxia Kingdom was going to appear in Quancheng, Lu Yingwu's expression changed slightly. Apparently he was not aware of this.

But this still cannot change Lu Yingwu's attitude.

"Although the general cannot take action, His Highness can."

"If His Highness the Crown Prince can capture the prince of Daxia Kingdom in Quan City, it will be a great achievement!"

Just when Zhou Zheng was still thinking about how to get Lu Yingwu to take action, he found that Lu Yingwu was speaking to him in a somewhat mean-spirited manner.

"General Lu, Huang Ming is dead. The Daxia Kingdom has joined forces with the three major families to control Quancheng."

"When the prince of Daxia Kingdom arrives, everything in Quancheng will fall into the hands of Daxia Kingdom."

Zhou Zheng frowned and directly stated the powerful relationship.

Unfortunately, what he got was Lu Yingwu's rejection.

"Although the general cannot mobilize troops, he can give His Highness a message."

"what's the message!?"

Frowning, Zhou Zheng didn't like or use anything else except the military talismans.

"If Your Highness needs it, you can ring the bell of Ci'en Temple at dawn at Mao Shi."

"When the time comes, someone will naturally come to help His Highness."

This news made Zhou Zheng a little confused.

"Damn it, the monk at Ci'en Temple is not the spy left behind by grandpa, right?"

"Even so, what's the use?"

Zhou Zheng only felt a little headache. He wanted to ask more questions, but Lu Yingwu didn't say a word at all.

"Now that His Highness has come out of Quancheng safely, you can continue to take a detour and continue heading north."

"If nothing else, the Yuan Dynasty has received the news and is waiting for His Highness."

Seeing that borrowing troops was useless, Zhou Zheng had no choice but to give up.

"Grandpa, how is your health these days?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, everything is fine with Marquis Zhenbei."

"Since borrowing troops is not possible, then it's okay to lend me a few people."

"Naturally."

......

Seeing Zhou Zheng leave Xieyang Valley, Lu Yingwu breathed a sigh of relief: "I hope your highness will understand the good intentions of Zhenbei Hou."

At the same time, deep in the Sunset Valley, a homing pigeon flew quietly towards the direction of the imperial capital.

"Huh, Lord Marquis is indeed right!"

"Have the imperial court's spies penetrated deeply into our army?"

Looking at the homing pigeon flying away in the sky, Lu Yingwu's expression became extremely gloomy, and a murderous intent filled the air!
