Chapter 1251 Can we form an alliance?

Yelv Zong heard what Yelv Tangzhi said and asked, "Are you sure that the letter from Heishui is true?"

"Not sure." Yelv Tangzhi said, "However, I think that if the content of this letter is true, then we will support Heishui and defeat Nanping. If the content of this letter is false, we will take the opportunity to hit Heishui. In recent years, the emperor of Heishui seems to have expanded his ambitions and has been a little disobedient recently. He needs to be hit."

Yelv Zong and the ministers nodded in agreement when they heard what Yelv Tangzhi said. Yelv Zong praised, "You are right. This arrangement is indeed the safest. I will send troops to Heishui immediately."

Because of some recent reasons, the army of Shuiyue has been gathering, so it does not take any time to send troops to Heishui now. Just choose an army to go there.

The matter of Heishui was decided, but Yelv Zong did not let everyone leave, but talked about another thing.

"What do you think about what Tianji said?" Yelu Zong asked.

"Your Majesty, I think Tianji's suggestion is completely feasible. If Shuiyue and Tianji join forces, we will definitely be able to defeat Yanfeng."

"The situation in Yanfeng is more serious than our two countries. Their emperor has always been in poor health and may die at any time, and the position of the crown prince has not been determined. People in the palace and the court are in turmoil. Now is the best time to attack them."

"I think so too."

"Your Excellencies' ideas are naturally good, but don't forget that in addition to us and Tianji, there is another superpower that chooses not to intervene in this matter. If they take advantage of me, "If they attack us at the opportunity when they and Tianji Kingdom are attacking Yanfeng Kingdom, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Yes, in addition, the existence of the demon army is always a threat. Although they have not made any big moves, it does not mean that we can ignore them. They may give us a fatal blow at any time."

"Your Majesty, I think this matter needs to be reconsidered."

All the ministers understood what Yelu Zong was asking about, and expressed their opinions one after another. Just like the matter of Heishui Kingdom before, the ministers also had two different attitudes towards the matter suggested by Tianji Kingdom, and the two sides were evenly matched.

The envoy of Tianji Kingdom has been in Shuiyue Kingdom for some time. The ministers also know what they came for, and the recent military mobilization of Shuiyue Kingdom is also related to this matter.

Of course, the mobilization of the army does not mean that Shuiyue Kingdom has agreed to form an alliance with Tianji Kingdom. They are just pretending. What's more, even if there is no Tianji Kingdom, the mobilization of Shuiyue Kingdom's internal defense forces is also normal.

Yelu Zong was listening carefully to the opinions of the ministers. In fact, this was not the first time he asked the ministers for their opinions on this matter. After all, this was not a trivial matter. A direct war between two superpowers was definitely the most important thing on this continent, and there was no other.

In the past, although there were conflicts between several superpowers, they were all local conflicts, not large in scale, or like the Black Water Kingdom and the Nanping Kingdom, they were instigated by the superpowers to fight, and the superpowers behind them did not personally participate.

Now, the suggestion of the Tianji Kingdom is that the two countries should join forces to directly launch a war against the Yanfeng Kingdom. This is not as simple as a small fight or finding an "agent" to fight. Therefore, it is necessary to be cautious and consider all aspects of the problem. In such matters, it is not too much to be cautious.

After the ministers had expressed their opinions, Yelu Zong turned his gaze to Yelu Tangzhi again and asked, "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, I think this matter must be handled with caution." Yelu Tangzhi said with a serious face: "This war between superpowers is of great importance. Winning is good, but if we lose, the consequences will be quite serious."

"It shouldn't be a big problem for us to join forces with Shuiyue Country to defeat Yanfeng Country, which has many internal conflicts." Yelu Zong said.

Yelu Zong was quite confident about this. He was a military general on the battlefield and was not completely ignorant of war. He understood the military situation of his own country and Yanfeng Country. If he joined forces with Tianji Country, he felt that he had at least an 80% chance of defeating Yanfeng Country.

Therefore, he was actually inclined to agree to an alliance with Tianji Country.

"If Tianji Country is truly in alliance and Maple Leaf Country remains neutral, the army of the Demon Realm will not come to join in the fun, then we will naturally have a great chance of winning, but if there is a problem in one of the links, it may cause unpredictable consequences." Yelu Tangzhi said.

Yelu Zong frowned slightly and said, "Continue."

"Your Majesty, the situation of the four superpowers coexisting on this continent has lasted for many years. Many outstanding emperors have had the idea of ​​unifying the continent, but none of them have succeeded. The strength of the four superpowers is almost the same. In a one-on-one battle, no one is sure to win, not to mention that they have to guard against sneak attacks from other countries. The alliance method is not that no one has tried it, but in the end it did not succeed. It is not because of insufficient strength, but because of lack of trust between each other. May I ask your majesty, do you fully trust Tianji Country? When fighting with Yanfeng Country, can you accept exposing the weak points of the army to the army of Tianji Country without scruples?" Yelu Tangzhi asked.

Yelu Zong thought about it, then shook his head. Even if he agreed to form an alliance with Tianji Country, he did not fully trust Tianji Country in his heart.

"That's it." Yelu Tangzhi continued, "If the two countries form an alliance and the armies attack together, there must be a commander to command this super army. How do we determine the candidate for this commander? Our people are still from Tianji Country. If this commander is theirs, they will need some people to lure the enemy during the battle, or even act as cannon fodder for the siege. They send our people to the front. Can Your Majesty believe that they have no selfish motives?"

Yelv Zong thought about it and shook his head again. However, this time, he did not wait for Yelu Tangzhi to continue, and said, "I understand what you said, and I have thought about it. I think these things can be discussed and a way that both sides can accept can be discussed."

Hearing what Yelu Zong said, Yelu Tangzhi understood that Yelu Zong was inclined to form an alliance with Tianji Country to attack Yanfeng Country together. After all, Yelu Zong has always been an emperor with great talents and strategies. It is normal to have ambitions in this regard.
