Chapter 777: Promoted again

Is the enemy of Nanping Kingdom really only Blackwater Kingdom this time?

Everyone at the scene has different ideas.

"I believe in Wu Fan!" At this time, Liu Yan'er spoke again and clearly expressed her trust in Wu Fan.

"Your Majesty..."

Qin Wei and others were shocked, and Zhao Xingnian and Liu Zhenyan looked at Wu Fan with more profound eyes.

"Draft an edict!" Wu Ya ignored Qin Wei and others.

The eunuch who wrote the edict before picked up the pen and ground the ink again.

"Order the border guards to close the city gates and strengthen vigilance. If the Blackwater Kingdom's army attacks the city, there is no need to report it, just fight back directly!" Wu Ya's voice was cold and irrefutable.

"Your Majesty, you can't!" Cai Cheng heard Wu Ya's order and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, this move will only anger the Black Water Kingdom and the Shuiyue Kingdom behind it, which is very disadvantageous to our Nanping Kingdom!"

"My order has been issued and will not be changed." Wu Ya said with an unchanged expression: "Minister Cai, if I let you go to the front line to supervise the war and take full responsibility for this war, are you sure?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my incompetence. I am not sure. In this war, our Nanping Kingdom has absolutely no chance of winning. Your Majesty, it is not too late to change your mind now. I hope..." Cai Cheng replied without thinking. He knew too much about the strength of his country and the strength of Shuiyue Kingdom. He didn't think their country had any chance of winning this war.

However, before Cai Cheng finished speaking, Wu Ya interrupted him directly. However, this time Wu Ya was not talking to Cai Cheng, but to Wu Fan.

"Wu Fan, if I let you take full command of this war, are you sure?"

Cai Cheng's words stagnated, and he looked at Wu Fan with an unpleasant face.

"I am 80% sure." Wu Fan said with a bow.

Since he had been appointed by Wu Ya, the address in Wu Fan's words also changed.

Hearing Wu Fan's words, Cai Cheng's face became even uglier, but there was a strong contempt in the ugliness.

"Your Majesty, you don't really believe what he said, do you?" Cai Cheng said to Wu Ya.

Wu Ya ignored Cai Cheng and said directly to Wu Fan: "Very good, Wu Fan accepts the order!"

"I am here." Wu Fan said with a bow.

"I appoint you as General Pingyuan, commander-in-chief of the three armies, and take full responsibility for this war with the Black Water Kingdom." Wu Ya said loudly.

As soon as Wu Ya finished speaking, the people at the scene, including Zhao Xingnian and Liu Zhenyan, all changed their faces.

In such a short period of time, Wu Fan was promoted again. The key point is that during this period of time, Wu Fan did nothing, but just analyzed the things on the front line. It was not clear whether it was right or wrong, but his official position was promoted again, and he was also appointed as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, taking full responsibility for this war.

Your Majesty really loves and trusts Wu Fan.

However, Wu Fan became the commander-in-chief of the three armies, so what about Cai Cheng? What should he do?

Zhao Xingnian and others looked at Cai Cheng and found that his face was as black as charcoal at this time.

If he can't manage the army, wouldn't he, the Minister of War, become a decoration? Was he just sidelined by Wu Fan?

It would be strange if Cai Cheng was in a good mood.

"Your Majesty, think twice!" Qin Wei and others Wu Ya said.

"I don't need to think twice, this matter is settled!" Wu Ya said firmly.

"I accept the order!" Wu Fan bowed unceremoniously.

"Lord Wu, do you really dare to accept the order? Have you ever fought on the battlefield? Do you know how to command the army? Do you know how much impact this war will have on our Nanping Kingdom?" Qin Wei said to Wu Fan angrily.

"I'm sorry, I've been on the battlefield and commanded the army, and I also know the impact of this incident on Nanping." Wu Fan said calmly. Even when facing Qin Wei, who has been in the officialdom for many years, Wu Fan was not panicked at all.

"Your Majesty, you can't hand over the fate of our Nanping country to an outsider!" Qin Wei saw that Wu Fan actually refuted him shamelessly, and couldn't help but point the finger at Wu Ya.

"I say again, Wu Fan is not an outsider, he is my lifesaver, and now he is the Marquis of Anping, General Pingyuan, and the commander-in-chief of the three armies of our Nanping country!" Wu Ya said in a deep voice.

"But..."

"No buts!" Wu Ya's firm face was a little angry.

She had already decided on this matter and issued an imperial decree. However, Qin Wei and others still wanted to change their decision. This clearly shows again that in their hearts, they did not have much awe for themselves, and this was obviously disrespectful to an emperor.

Qin Wei and others saw the anger on Wu Ya's face and could guess why Wu Ya was angry. However, they felt that they were doing it for the good of Nanping State. Wu Ya's decision was too impulsive and wrong. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with them doing this, and they even wanted to continue to object.

"Okay, you all go down, Wu Fan stays." Wu Ya saw that Qin Wei and others seemed to want to be relentless, so she spoke first and did not give Qin Wei and others a chance to speak.

"Your Majesty..."

"Retreat!" Wu Ya spoke again, the volume increased a lot, and the anger in her voice became more obvious.

Qin Wei and others opened their mouths, then bowed and saluted, "I will leave."

After saying that, they turned around unwillingly and prepared to leave.

"Master Zhao, please stay." Wu Fan said.

Zhao Xingnian turned his head to look at Wu Fan in confusion, and Qin Wei and others had similar expressions. Several people did not know why Wu Fan called Zhao Xingnian.

"Lord Zhao, please raise food and grass and transport them to the border. At the same time, arrange for the cities near the border to send a batch of food and grass first. With enough food and grass, whether it is defending the city or taking the initiative to attack, the soldiers at the border will be more confident." Wu Fan walked up to Zhao Xingnian and said.

Zhao Xingnian did not immediately agree or refuse, but looked at Wu Ya, then nodded and agreed: "I will do it now."

"Sorry for bothering Lord Zhao." Wu Fan bowed.

"It's my job." Zhao Xingnian said lightly.

"You really think you are the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and you start giving orders now." Jiao Zhiyuan muttered.

Although Jiao Zhiyuan's voice was not loud, almost everyone at the scene could hear it, including Wu Ya.

"Confiscate Minister Jiao's salary for half a year." Wu Ya said lightly.

Jiao Zhiyuan looked at Wu Ya, opened his mouth, and finally said nothing, turned around and left the hall.

Others also left one after another, including several eunuchs and palace maids who had been serving in the palace. In the huge palace, there were only Wu Fan and Wu Ya.

"You and I are alone in the same room, aren't you afraid of gossip?" Without outsiders present, Wu Fan resumed his identity as Wu Ya's friend and joked with Wu Ya.

"Let them spread it." Wu Ya said indifferently: "But you can still joke now, it seems that you are really confident?"

"From what you said, it seems that you didn't believe me very much before?" Wu Fan smiled.

Wu Ya rolled her eyes at Wu Fan: "As a friend, of course I believe you, but as the emperor of Nanping, your words just now are indeed hard to believe."
