Chapter 1753 Events in the Capital City (2)
The two men were looking at each other.
To be exact, Emperor Yang Zhou was looking at Shangguan Yu closely while he lowered his head slightly. After all, the ministers were not allowed to look directly to the Emperor.
“Alright, you can go.”
“Thank you very much Your Majesty. Your Majesty is wise, long life Your Majesty.”
Emperor Yang Zhou raised his hand to stop Shangguan Yu’s unnecessary praise. “Bring me the report from each city you passed.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“You may go.”
Shangguan Yu bowed once more and then the servant was called inside and pulled him out of the study.
Emperor Yang Zhou looked in the direction where Shangguan Yu left and sighed deeply. He truly wondered whether it was the correct decision to allow him to do what he wanted to do.
But after a while, Emperor Yang Zhou shook his head.
He could only do his best.
Whether it was correct or not, only time will tell.
“Tell Prime Minister Xian to hold the war meetings.” Emperor Yang Zhou’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness. “It’s time for the war preparation against Shi Long Kingdom.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”

<Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City, Imperial Palace Main Hall>
This time, their goal was to conquer Shi Long Kingdom.
How arrogant Shi Long Kingdom was and how much the situation had changed after a few years passed and Fei Yang Kingdom was growing. Now, it was important for them to grasp the chance in their hands in order to conquer Shi Long Kingdom. “We’re here to discuss about the next conquest along with the commanders in charge.” Prime Minister Xian swept his gaze across the people around him. “Let’s start.”
…
Discussion starts with the commanders listening to Prime Minister Xian’s evaluation first.
Shi Long Kingdom is a big kingdom.
It was also very powerful because they have the most resources and used a lot of strange things to win the siege war. There were two tactics that could be used.
The first one was to conquer the cities around Shi Long Kingdom but this approach would take a long time and a lot of manpower. After all, Shi Long Kingdom is a large kingdom and they have only started to press their border.
The estimation would take two to three years for this method.
The second one was to directly go straight to Shi Long Kingdom’s Capital City and tried to conquer it from inside. Once the Capital City has fallen and their Imperial Family was eliminated or taken hostage, Shi Long Kingdom can be declared over.
But after that, they would still need to clean up the remnants which will take months to years.
After all, it was not easy to make everyone agree to be part of Fei Yang Kingdom just like that.
Old Master Nan listened to Prime Minister Xian listened the two tactics that had been discussed for a long time in great details. The weakness, advantage, the current situation in Shi Long Kingdom and many others were already analyzed.
‘No wonder that Zhang Xu Kingdom fell in the end.’
With the combination of Great General Wei’s capabilities, Prime Minister Xian’s ideas and analysis, the few generals who contributed with their abilities, and the soldiers who fought until the very end…
It would be strange if Zhang Xu Kingdom would last.
Old Master Nan looked at the ceiling, imagining the vast sky and felt that the Heaven truly blessed Fei Yang Kingdom. Even if the process was arduous and not easy, but everything came together in the end. It was good enough for him.
He wanted to watch as the new era unfolded.
