Chapter 818: You decide when the war begins, but we decide when it ends

One of the windows on the second floor of the inn was opened, and a man stood at the window, looking at the cheering crowds on the street. This was a must-pass place to go to the county magistrate's mansion, so it was also considered to be very vigilant. The soldiers of the Tiger Camp isolated the people who were welcomed by three steps and one whistle in five steps.

"The grand occasion is unprecedented!" he said softly.

"The winner deserves such cheers!" Another person standing behind him said: "After this battle, Qin Feng's Ming Dynasty has truly gained a foothold. It's hard to imagine that the Ming Dynasty has been so popular with the people after more than two years of its founding. This is what makes us worthy of vigilance."

The man at the window nodded gently: "Actually, we have been collecting and studying Qin Feng's policy. The big guys in the court have not realized the problem, but although we understand, we can't do it."

He turned around, looked at the other party, and asked, "Measure the land, pay taxes according to the land, count the population, eliminate hidden households, implement administrative reforms, and eliminate redundant officials. The successful implementation of these policies has refreshed the governance of the Ming Dynasty. The people have gained the greatest benefits, so they will naturally support him. But can we follow the example? It is impossible. Qin Li, do you understand the links here?"

Qin Li smiled bitterly: "Sir, I understand that the Ming Dynasty is a newly built country, but my Great Qi has been around for a long time. The so-called freezing three feet is not a cold one day. If we imitate Mingtian, we are afraid that the country will be in chaos first. If the heavens are angry and people are resentful, the country will be unstable first."

"This is the key to the problem!" The man at the window continued: "The elites in the court are now vested interests in the current national affairs. If we follow the Ming Dynasty, then it will be cut off their financial path and official path, so how can it work? So the truth is that our report will eventually sink to the sea and no news."

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. If you can see this report, it will definitely change." Qin Li said carefully.

The man at the window laughed: "Your Majesty, we can see problems. Your Majesty will not know. In our Grand Qi, no one dares to deceive the holy hearing, but the problem is that Your Majesty has no choice but to do anything. Now Your Majesty can only push this big ship that is already overloaded, hoping to crush all obstacles in front, and then turn around and slowly clean up the domestic problems. The foreign enemy is in a state of chaos and the internal chaos!"

"Sir, do you mean, Your Majesty saw our report?"

"Of course, I personally handed the report to Your Majesty. After reading it, Your Majesty just laughed and said to me, Cao Hui, do you think we can move now?" The man at the window said calmly.

“My answer is that I can’t move.”

Qin Li sighed and shook his head: "Ming Kingdom is coming in a fierce manner. What is scary is not their current combat effectiveness, but the subsequent development they can wait and see. If this continues, the Ming Kingdom will inevitably become stronger and more threats to us."

"That's why this big battle came about!" Cao Hui held the window frame with his hands, "It's a pity that Deng Pu is too unsatisfied. If he can defeat Qin Feng's troops, then everything will be over. It's their turn to clean up the mess."

If we fail to capture Shayang County, if we can take Shayang County and break into Zhengyang, it would be another situation!" Qin Li said suddenly.

Cao Hui was silent for a moment, "General Guo has done his best."

He raised his head and looked into the distance. A familiar figure appeared on the city tower in the distance. It was Qin Feng, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and his old acquaintance.

After the army was reviewed outside the city, he climbed the city tower alone. Although it was very far apart, Qin Feng's words still clearly reached his ears. Of course, they also reached the crowds of people downstairs who were welcoming, just as if he was facing Qin Feng and was having a cordial conversation.

Qin Li changed his fear and said, "Qin Feng has indeed been promoted to the Grandmaster."

Legend has it that Qin Feng was promoted to a master and killed Deng Pu in the battle with Deng Pu, which turned the overall situation around. The people of Qi have always been skeptical about this news. After all, it is rare to hear about such breakthroughs in the near-war period. They are more willing to believe that Deng Pu died in the siege of many masters and troops.

But their guess was obviously wrong with Qin Feng's ability shown today. Qin Feng has indeed been promoted to the Grandmaster.

Cao Hui's face was a little bitter. When he first met Qin Feng, he was in the Luoying Mountains. At that time, he had already reached the threshold of level nine. Although Qin Feng had good combat power, his martial arts cultivation was not in his eyes at all. However, after several years, the situation of the two people was reversed. Not to mention the other achievements of the two, Qin Feng had already set Cao Hui on his behalf. After the battle of Luoying Mountains, Cao Hui successfully advanced to level nine with his desperate battle with Zuo Lixing, and then moved forward steadily. Now he has stood firmly above the stage of level nine. This is already a very rare achievement, but compared with Qin Feng, he was instantly defeated.

"God really favors him." He sighed, "He is so beautiful as a flower, he has pushed open the door to supreme martial arts, and he has established his own country, but I have nothing to gain."

Qin Li looked at Cao Hui, who was sad and sad, and kept silent. The entanglement between Cao Hui and Qin Feng's confidant, Wang Yueyao, the director of the Ming Dynasty's Commerce Department, was known to many people in the ghost. Cao Hui used the power of ghost to continuously give exquisite gifts to Wang Yueyao, who was still in Taiping City at that time, to please her. Unfortunately, the two of them were independent, and they could only separate them. Cao Hui finally married the daughter of the prime minister under the emperor's marriage. He heard that Wang Yueyao had already been engaged to another important figure in the Ming Dynasty, Shu Chang, the director of the Imperial Medical Office, and I am afraid that the wedding will soon be held.

The news came that day, and Cao Hui only said: "Shu Chang is an amazing person and worthy of her." Then he locked himself in the house and did not go out for a day and a night.

The two were silent, listening to Qin Feng's passionate and stuttering voice coming from afar, it was obvious that Qin Feng's speech had come to an end.

"They can decide when the war begins, but we will decide when the war ends." Qin Feng, on the city tower, raised the sword in his hand, suddenly raised his voice and shouted loudly.

"Long live, long live, long live!"

As Qin Feng raised his sword high, there were roars like tsunamis inside and outside the city.

The Qi people decided when the war began, but the Ming people decided when the war ended! After so many years, the people finally heard a generous and prosperous saying that allowed them to relieve their depression.

Inside the room, Cao Hui and Qin Li changed their faces slightly when they heard Qin Feng's words.

"Sir, is Qin Feng officially declaring war on our Grand Qi?" Qin Li asked.

Cao Hui stared at Qin Feng in the distance, and the man in the distance held a sword high, like a statue, enjoying the cheers and shouts of countless people. The sword raised reflected the sunshine and shone with rays of cold light.

"It seems that the big guys in our capital have any mistakes!" he said softly. "Will the large-scale national war really start like this?"

Dongdongdongdongdongdongdong, a gentle knock sounded outside the door. The two of them turned their heads to look outside the door at the same time. Qin Li's hand even touched his arms, but Cao Hui shook his head gently.

"This is Yuejing City, and there are countless soldiers below. Do you want to take action and seek death?"

Outside the door, an old voice came.

"Mr. Cao, is it convenient for old friends to come in?"

Cao Hui smiled, strode over, opened the door, and looked at the white-haired Guo Jiuling standing outside the door, "If I say no, will Commander Guo not come in?"

"Of course I'll come in." Guo Jiuling laughed and walked into the room calmly, looking at Qin Li, "This is Qin Li, Qin, the elite among ghosts. With just one person's strength, the four counties in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty were messed up, and even tricked the barbarians down the mountain with one force, and finally let them fall to the current field. It's amazing, amazing."

Qin Li smiled and bowed: "Thank you for your praise. It is not a great honor to be praised by Mr. Guo."

Cao Hui poked his head outward and looked outward with an exaggerated look, then he retracted and went to the door, "I thought Commander Guo and his team came to capture me? Commander Guo was amazing. I have just entered the city, and you came to the door."

Guo Jiuling sat down with a smile, lifted the teapot, poured three glasses of water, turned around and asked, "Mr. Cao, Lord Qin, please sit, please sit, this is Yuejing City. If a person like Lord Cao arrives in Yuejing City, I would be too incompetent, right? Moreover, in my opinion, Lord Cao does not seem to have deliberately hidden his traces, and it seems that he is deliberately letting me know the meaning!"

Cao Hui smiled silently, picked up the teacup and sipped it slowly.

Guo Jiuling took a few sips and put down the teacup, "Does Lord Cao come here this time to see Your Majesty?"

"I do want to meet you, but your country ignores the letter of nationality we handed over before, and they don't report or reply, so I can only walk the path of Mr. Guo." Cao Hui nodded and pointed out the window, "Does what Your Majesty said just now represent your country's attitude?"

"You decide when the war begins, but we will decide when the war ends!" Guo Jiuling's smile was curled and he looked at the other party solemnly, "Mr. Cao, don't forget that this war was initiated by you."

"Your country thinks it is really a confrontation with us?" Cao Hui smiled, "The Daqi can decide when the war will start, and naturally decide when the war will end. However, if we unilaterally decide when the war will end, it will not be so good for Ming Dynasty!"

Guo Jiuling smiled: "You may have thought so when you attacked Shayang County, but now, I'm afraid you don't think so anymore. Otherwise, how could you appear here? Lord Cao, you have already expressed your attitude when you appear here." r
