Chapter 182: Boiling
Imperial Capital!
In fact, the news of Xu Yan's battle was easily transmitted back to the entire capital.
It can be said that at the beginning, when he made that hand, many people in the court were not very optimistic.
Strategy, a lot of the time, is useful, but in many extreme situations, it's not easy to make a difference.
Whether it is a first-line cliff or the East Fence City, in fact, to put it bluntly, this is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
It was occupied by the raid of the Great Zhou people before, and now it is so difficult to take it back.
Even if two armies join forces, in their eyes, if they want to recapture it for a while, this is a very huge war of attrition, because the army on the other side can come to support at any time, and they will not be afraid of tug-of-war at all.
Even if Xu Yan had some strategies before and wanted to succeed in the sneak attack, it would be an extremely difficult thing, although Da Zhou was relatively weaker than Da Qin, but, in the end, the current Da Qin was not just facing a Da Zhou, okay?
A war on several sides would be a very tragic war in itself, and it would be a great thing to be able to completely stabilize the situation no matter where, and under such a premise, who would really understand what was in their own minds?
The capital, which itself is a person who formulates all strategies, after learning that Xu Yan took Yangcheng and went to the first line of heaven, many people sighed slightly, this is a lone army in depth, if there is anything to His Royal Highness King Yu, this is simply unimaginable.
The blows to Daqin are also extremely huge.
Even Xu Wei, who was still confident in his son, was distracted for a while when he sat on his dragon chair, and it was hard to imagine how entangled his heart was.
On the one hand, I am glad that my son has such courage, and on the other hand, I am even more worried about my son.
Fortunately, it was only a few hours of torment, and this came the real good news, Xu Yan took the first line of cliffs, and even took the army back to help Dongli City.
The entire East Fence City can be said to be sandwiched from both sides now, so that it is only a matter of time before it is almost broken through.
Such good news, if it were someone else, he would be happy for the first time, but Xu Wei, who had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't be happy in his heart.
On the contrary, he began to be more worried, after all, even if it was a victory in Dongli City, it was nothing, and the biggest test after that was still in that first-line cliff, where, there were hundreds of thousands of troops in Da Zhou, even if it was impossible to send more at one time, it was not too difficult to take down the first-line cliff.
As long as the first-line cliff is lost, even if it is even if it is obtained, what can it do? Under the fierce army, the East Fence City is just a lonely city, and it is somewhat impossible to play at all.
It's a pity that he is not on the front line, and he does not know the situation on the front line, so he can only worry.
However, after the news of the recapture of Dongli City was transmitted later, the powerful people in the entire capital really began to boil.
Tiangong Pavilion, the old man sat in his seat.
Listening to his subordinates tell about the great achievements of His Royal Highness King Qin Yu, the whole person smiled like a flower on his face.
He knew that His Royal Highness King Yu was not a thing in the pool, and he felt that it was the best choice for him to enter the army, but he didn't expect that he would have such a great talent, and even use a speed that even he couldn't imagine to make contributions there.
You must know that the ownership of the capital is very clear, and now they are facing almost 300,000 troops in the Southern Third Army, if it is really the only one, forget it, after all, the Southern Third Army also has 300,000 troops in their hands.
However, people have strong cities and natural dangers, and generally speaking, if such an army of monks wants to be breached, it will require at least half of its troops.
Only after forming absolute superiority can we strike at the enemy in all aspects, and only in this way can we do better step by step.
And this His Royal Highness King Yu only has an army of 100,000 in his hands, even if there are still 200,000 troops in Xiang Tianxiao's hands, he will definitely support Xu Yan unconditionally, but with such a number, if you want to break through the city within a period of time, or even recover the lost territory, this is also an extremely difficult thing.
What he didn't expect was that he actually did it, and did it so well in unexpected circumstances, that even the old man's own heart began to get excited.
These seven highnesses, as I see, are the prince with the majestic posture of His Majesty. That kind of smile, that kind of situation, even the entire Tiangong Pavilion people flashed with surprise.
This old monster can still praise others so unstingily?
Not only Tiangong Pavilion, but even some officials in the court were somewhat overjoyed when they heard this.
In any case, this can be a good propaganda effect, and even, in a short period of time, the effect is even more exaggerated and better than it is now.
Especially those powerful people who didn't belong to them before, they began to think about it for the first time.
Because they clearly know that in these years, the so-called prince wants to participate in the battle for the heir, which is of course commendable, but reputation is even more important.
Only if you have a good reputation, or rather, you have become the guardian of Great Qin, can such an identity be truly invincible.
And now Xu Yan already faintly has this feeling in it, naturally, for them, they have become a very qualified object of allegiance.
What's more, there is no big force here in the current Yuwang Mansion, and now if you join in, you can get benefits better, which is also something that those powerful people are considering, okay?
Of course, many powerful people also thought of a deeper level, after all, some time ago, the weather vane of this Great Qin was a year or two after the battle for the succession began.
However, now that His Majesty has turned the tide and launched this war, striving to establish the foundation of this Great Qin around here, the so-called battle of many places will naturally be postponed.
Xu Yan, who has just entered the battlefield, will be able to make contributions to this, and this kind of call will be very terrible in many years, and for those powerful people who are dedicated to the country, such a prince can make them have a good impression.
After all, princes must also have a heart that loves their country, so that they can be recognized by most people, and the current Xu Yan, although he has not made some big senses, but he uses practical actions to tell everyone that he loves this Daqin.
He even did not hesitate to risk his life for it, just so that this Great Qin could gain a firm foothold on the battlefield and completely defeat all enemies here.
Whether it is the powerful people who love the entire empire, or those who have their own ideas, this time, the comments on Xu Yan have become surprisingly consistent, and no one feels that he needs to be slandered at this time.
No one felt that Xu Yannai was playing tricks and putting on a show at this time.
The entire imperial capital was boiled by this news, and no matter what kind of existence it was, most of them began to publicize this matter.
Restaurants, teahouses, and even some small vendors, on the streets, are talking about the methods of His Royal Highness King Qin Yu.
Regardless of whether it is success or failure in the end, at least, it has already shown that he Xu Yan is indeed fighting on the front line, and even regardless of his own comfort, he chooses to go deep alone.
With such courage and ability, everything has been fully explained and understood, no matter what kind of changes occur, it is inevitable that His Royal Highness will be respected.
You must know that in this Great Qin, the class division is certainly not as obvious as that of the Great Zhou, but the prince has always been an existence beyond the aristocracy.
Even ordinary nobles rarely take the initiative to be in danger on the battlefield, but as a royal family, even the prince who may still get that position, His Royal Highness King Yu of Great Qin, he can lead troops to the battle, and he is not even pretending.
He really entered the battlefield and went deep alone, hoping to defeat the enemy of his country in such a battle.
Although it gives people some sense of sanctimony, but a loyal liver and courage is still more gratifying in everyone's hearts, after all, the cohesion of this Great Qin itself is the highest among all the surrounding empires.
Now, a prince has set an example, I am afraid that in the next period of time, I don't know how many monks are willing to devote themselves to the military camp and make contributions to this Great Qin.
Just such an example has already made people stunned, and all this is still under the premise that Xu Yan doesn't know whether he succeeds or not.
Naturally, the entire imperial capital, and even the entire Great Qin people who knew the news, really began to spread Xu Yan's deeds by word of mouth.
For a while, His Royal Highness King Yu of Great Qin could be said to be in the limelight for a while, directly overshadowing the third brother Xu Tianfeng and the sixth prince who was called Qilin'er.
This is the role of example, and in many cases, it is powerful beyond your imagination.
And in the face of all this, Xu Yan, who is far away on the frontier, is really not aware at all?
Not necessarily.
I'm afraid this is something he could have expected for a long time, but now, he doesn't have the energy to manage such a reputation.
The most important thing is that it is not as important as the external war in Xu Yan's heart, even if it is a battle for the heir.
Xu Yan never denied this.
