Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Great Zhou Dynasty!

At this time, the atmosphere in the court hall was solemn, and Mu Yun and others looked nervous.

"My lords, the rebellion of 150,000 elites is huge!"

"Is there any good strategy to defeat the enemy?!"

Gu Jiang's face was full of anxiety at this time, and his eyes kept scanning the people in the court.

However, when asked, the ministers only sighed softly and had helpless expressions on their faces.

Today's Great Zhou is almost an empty shell. It is extremely difficult to gather 100,000 soldiers, let alone face an army of 150,000.

"The imperial court has tried its best, but now it seems that it is not enough."

Some ministers' voices were hoarse, and when they finished speaking, they couldn't help but cast their eyes on Gong Tan.

Ever since Zhou Zheng rushed to the grassland to aid the Yuan Dynasty, Mu Yun and Gong Tan had been handling almost all matters of all sizes in the dynasty.

Gong Tan, in particular, was not afraid of danger. He single-handedly entered the tiger's den and used his own life as a bet to suppress the 300,000 elite men in King Muyang's fiefdom.

She tried her best to frighten half of the enemy army with her wisdom and courage, but also her determination not to be afraid of death.

Who would have thought that a prostitute could actually do this, which really made hundreds of officials admire and admire her from the bottom of their hearts.

But even so, there are still 150,000 elites left to rebel.

These are all the elites that King Muyang once trained, and they are the capital of those princes' rebellion.

Now, they are desperate to raise their troops and march northward, with almost no unstoppable force along the way.

Could it be that the imperial capital will be faced with being besieged and trapped again? !

"How about we invite His Majesty to come back!"

"As long as His Majesty is here, those rebels will never dare to be so arrogant!"

Some ministers gritted their teeth and finally spoke out what was deep in their hearts.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked up, their eyes flickering, and then their eyes kept scanning Gong Tan and Mu Yun.

Unless these two people nodded, they would not dare to really let Zhou Zheng come back.

"Master Prime Minister, this may be the only way."

"Otherwise, as the 150,000-strong army continues to grow in strength, it is inevitable that all the efforts made by Mr. Gong will be in vain!"

"If the 150,000 troops who were prepared to stand still also rebel, then even if there are 10,000 musketeers in the imperial capital, they will not be able to defend themselves."

"Without the imperial capital, will the Zhou court still be a court?"

"At that time, how will we explain to His Majesty and how will we explain to the people in the world?"

The officials looked panicked at this time, but they spoke from the bottom of their hearts.

As for Dayuan's crisis, they can no longer care about that much.

If you can't even protect your own base camp, what's the point of protecting Dayuan? !

"Please, Prime Minister, make your decision!"

With a plop, the officials cried bitterly and knelt down towards Mu Yun.

For a time, the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

Even Muyuan's eyes were complicated at this moment, and he was in a dilemma.

He naturally knew that the current imperial court was really at the end of its rope, and there were still some soldiers in the north, but he would never dare to transfer them back to the imperial capital. Only the emergence of Zhou Zheng could now turn the tide and at least make the rebels surrender. , giving the court some breathing time.

"no!"

Just when Mu Yun was about to nod, Gong Tan, who had been silent, suddenly stood up!

As she scolded loudly, she clenched her fists and looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground, with a trace of disappointment in her eyes.

"My lords, have you ever thought that once you contact His Majesty, wouldn't it put His Majesty in a dilemma?!"

"Even if His Majesty does come back, Dayuan will most likely fall."

"At that time, what I faced in the Great Zhou Dynasty were not these 150,000 rebels, but internal and external troubles!"

Gong Tan's voice continued to echo in the hall.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then bowed their heads again.

They naturally know the risks involved, but now that they can't focus on both ends, they can only focus on the key points.

The survival of the Zhou Dynasty is the core and key to everything.

"We naturally know Master Gong's concerns."

"But now, the imperial court has no troops available."

Bite the bullet, one of the ministers raised his head and pointed to the point.

The rebels set off from the fiefdom and reach the imperial capital, which can take up to a month.

At that time, once an encirclement is formed, the entire imperial capital will be plunged into dire straits.

Can ten thousand musketeers really withstand an elite army of hundreds of thousands?

This is not a grassland, and the imperial capital is not a piece of metal.

I'm afraid that many aristocratic families in the city are already ready to make a move, and even the Supreme Emperor deep in the palace is waiting for the opportunity.

What will happen then? !

The atmosphere was depressing again.

"no one!?"

"Who said there is no one in my court?!"

Gong Tan stepped forward suddenly, and when his tone was cautious, a chill flowed in his eyes.

"There are still more than 3,000 imperial guards in my palace!"

"Is it possible that the Ding family generals in the ministers' mansions have no fighting power at all?!"

"Within the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, people with lofty ideals can also raise their arms!"

"If that's not enough!"

"I, Gong Tan, am willing to take the lead, I am willing to stand at the forefront, and I am willing to be the first one to fall!"

Gong Tan's words were so heroic.

There was no fear or flinching in her words at this time, and there was no trace of panic or urgency on her face.

His valiant heroic appearance and determination to not fear death made everyone's hearts tremble!

The whole court was full of men, but at this moment, they were extremely ashamed.

“My lords, it’s difficult for the court, but isn’t it difficult for Your Majesty?!”

"Your Majesty only brought 10,000 people deep into the grassland. Do you know that there are 100,000 Daxia elites on the grassland, including tens of thousands of musketeers?!"

"Your Majesty is not afraid of life and death, so why should we, the ministers, be timid!?"

"Over the years, how much has your Majesty done for the court, the people, and the Great Zhou Dynasty? How many sacrifices have you made?!"

"He never mentioned it!"

"I told you before, Your Majesty, you never owe us anything!"

"This time, let us share your Majesty's worries for once, so why not?!"

Gong Tan's voice was trembling, and her eyes were already moist.

Her words were like bells, constantly ringing in the hearts of the ministers.

"Your Majesty has decreed that we should hold on to Kyoto!"

"Then, no matter how difficult it is, we will complete your Majesty's mission to the death!"

"Guard the capital, defend the palace, defend your majesty's court and country!"

"Even if it means death, what does it matter?!"

Gong Tan's words made the ministers clench their fists and their eyes became bloodshot, and then a fighting spirit finally spread out from the bodies of the ministers!

That's right, as a minister, you should share the emperor's worries!

If they only care about themselves and protect themselves at this time, what is the difference between them and those officials in the previous dynasty who were greedy for life and fearful of death?

Many officials present were released from death row after Zhou Zheng ascended the throne.

They had already died once, so why should they be afraid again? !

"We are willing to fight to the death with the imperial court!"

The ministers were furious and everyone was full of fighting spirit!
