Naruto: History of the Warring States Period

Chapter 788

At the end of 1023 in the imperial calendar, more than half a year passed, and the atmosphere in the imperial capital became heavier.

Since General Najieshitan, who was also known as the double star of the Empire last year with Esdes, treasoned and surrendered to the enemy, the Empire has once again set off a political struggle between factions within the control of Ornest, centered on the imperial capital… …

But under such circumstances, the emergence of an urgent piece of information temporarily suspends the tension in the imperial capital.

The imperial capital, the imperial palace, and the magnificent political hall.

At this time, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered in the hall of discussion. The little emperor Odysseus, who was nearly fifteen years old, sat upright on the high throne, and beside him, Ornest was also standing straight.

From an outsider’s point of view, there is absolutely nothing wrong between these two people, and the little emperor does not look like a puppet at all. From here, we can also see that Ornest’s skills are wise, although everyone knows him. He is the real person in charge, but he just makes no sense!

“Your Majesty! The latest information from the north shows that the new leader of a different nation in the north, Numa Seka, known as the prince of the steppe, has once again launched an aggressive war against the empire! And he has already laid down nearly ten fortresses, and the great imperial army has no army. The enemy of one… please make your decision!”

A military representative took the lead out of the queue he was in, kneeling on one knee and reporting respectfully.

“The strange people in the north dare to repeatedly violate the border of our empire! These guys are so rampant! Come here, declare my will, and then General Esdes will command his headquarters to fight the rebellion in the north!”

Hearing that a foreign nation from the north had come again, Odysseus announced his decision in a serious manner.

But when he just finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Ornest and asked:

“That’s it, Teacher Ornest!”

“Hey, of course, your majesty is really wise in your decision!”

In the hall, all the courtiers looked at Ornest beside him with shocked expressions after hearing the decision of the little emperor.

It’s not about the little emperor’s questioning of him after making a decision. This situation seems to have formed a habit since the little emperor took office, and it has long been commonplace for them.

What they were shocked was the meaning behind this decision.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

The north, as long as anyone with a little common sense in the officialdom of the empire knows, it is a forbidden zone and pure land!

Although it is not to say that the North is very different from other parts of the empire, at least in terms of the lives of officials, local giants and people in the officialdom, it is simply ‘paradise’ compared to other places in the empire!

In recent years, as the empire’s eastern and southern times have become more and more erosive, people with only a small amount of wealth will choose to move to the north or the west to live. Although the West is slightly worse than the North, at least it is not like the inner empire. So unbearable…

However, despite this situation, the empire and even the center of the imperial capital are helpless, because the man who dominates these two vast areas is the only person in the empire who can match or even surpass the little emperor Odysseus. A man of equal status-the regent Yuzan!

Originally there was a hidden rule in the power field within the empire, that is, what agreement should be reached between the regent and Ornest, the two sides do not commit each other, and the water does not violate the river!

But now, the strategy proposed by the little emperor is obviously that Ornest wants to turn his tongue to the regent, ready to grab food!

For a while, everyone felt a prelude to a storm, and some older courtiers even awakened a certain memory that existed deep in their minds…

At the same time, in the two lines of courtiers in the main hall, Stockton, the old god, glanced slightly at Ornest and the little emperor Odysseus above, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes…

…

Just as the imperial capital was shaken by Ornest’s big move, Yuzan in Minas Tirith in the western land had to get information about this large-scale invasion of a foreign nation in the north before the imperial capital.

“Numaseka? This kid is a guy with good eyes and low hands. He can’t be a climate! He is much worse than his father! Don’t worry! In fact, I am also the reason why the North will let the other party get those fortresses in vain. The Northern Army had already been ordered to do it deliberately!”

Yuzan looked at Hughes, who was sweating coldly below, and said indifferently.

“Huh? Your Highness? You, what are you?”

“Master Hughes, you don’t understand this. If your Highness doesn’t do this, how can you show the enemy’s weakness? Think about it, even after 17 years of recuperation, how many people are there in the northern foreign nations? How many soldiers and horses are there? Their fighting methods of different nations are only suitable for plain battles, but they are not good at siege warfare, and defending the city is even more…

Every time their soldiers and horses lay down a city or fortress, we can disperse the enemy’s combat power, and His Royal Highness has already made arrangements for the people in the city and transferred them secretly! Moreover, if His Royal Highness does not do this, how can there be a fair reason to return to the imperial capital? ”

Although Solomon on the side did not explain too clearly, Hughes also roughly understood the other party’s meaning, and immediately understood it like a divine enlightenment…

“This is just one of them, and the other is that I need to let everyone know that there are some’problems’ under my governance, so that some of the jumping clowns can speed up their pace…Of course, I too I believe that even if Ornest can see all the irrationality in this, he will definitely jump inside, after all, he is a gambler…

Okay, Yuuki, this time it’s up to you to go north to quell the chaos! Remember the strategy I said with you before… Then everyone, I will leave it to you for the time being, Hughes, bring you, touch the elite, and set off with me! I really want to know how many people still remember me in the current imperial capital! ”

…

Empire, the border between the north and the interior of the empire, there is a rolling mountain in the area extremely close to the north.

A sparsely populated village sits in a canyon in the mountain.

“Then let’s go, village chief!”

At the entrance of the village, a large group of people are sending off three young people who set off to the imperial capital with dreams…The three young people full of vitality don’t know what kind of thorns are waiting for them at this moment…
