Liang Chongxin's words hit Situ Biao's heart like a giant hammer. Situ Biao naturally knew the source of Situ Tai's financial resources and food support, otherwise he would not have easily entered the joint force. If it were not for the financial aristocrats of the imperial capital, the Japanese and the Nanyang Alliance, what else could Situ Tai have besides hundreds of thousands of troops? I'm afraid that he was not as good as himself at the time. Situ Biao was not clear about the reason why the Puer sent troops, but he could not escape the word temptation. If it were true as the other party said that the Milan Navy cut off the channel for transporting grain from the Nanyang Alliance, and Jiangnan fell into the hands of Xijiang again. Thinking about the 300,000 nomadic cavalry mentioned by the other party, Situ Biao would not dare to think about it anymore. No wonder Li Wufeng dared to let his Second Legion go south to face the Maqi Khan, and did not take the tension in the north seriously at all. It seemed that the other party had already had a firm chance of winning.

As for the three palaces in his hands as the other party said, they are nothing at all, so what if they take it, so what if they don't take it? The domineering aura revealed in the other party's words did not take the three palaces in his hands seriously. It seemed that the three palaces were just dolls in their palms to them. They could play with them, and a burst of anger surged from Situ Biao's heart. He wanted to leave and wanted to angrily scold the other party, but he did not dare, because he had to admit that what the other party said was the fact. There seemed to be no choice in the way in front of him. Can he have a choice?

Seeing Situ Biao's uncertain face, Liang Chongxin took a sip of tea. Although he hoped that the other party could see the situation clearly and express his attitude, he also knew that such a thing would not be achieved. Only when he fully demonstrated his strength to suppress the other party firmly and made the other party feel that there was no way out, the other party would seriously consider the consequences. Otherwise, if he had a glimmer of hope, he might resist stubbornly.

"General Liang, maybe you made a lot of sense, but as you said, the situation in Western Xinjiang is not good in the north. If you lose this battle, can you still say such things?" Situ Biao was actually convinced by the other party in his heart, but at this time he could not reveal his true thoughts. He had to hit the other party and see the other party's reaction.

"Haha, Liang knew that Your Highness would hesitate at this point, so he asked Mr. Hu to accompany Liang. Mr. Hu was originally the first counselor of Your Highness. Liang was single now and could not put any pressure on Mr. Hu. If Your Highness and Mr. Hu thought that Liang was just a false statement, Your Highness could still try, so he might as well push Liang and cut him out. Liang had no objection." Liang Chongxin said lightly.

Situ Biao's eyes fell on Hu Tingzhi's face, who had never interrupted. Hu Tingzhi's complex expression turned, and finally sighed, shook his head and didn't look at him, obviously giving up the right to suggest.

Situ Biao's eyes became a little confused. Maybe his struggle had really come to an end. Even Hu Tingzhi was unwilling to recommend words in this situation. Where should he go?

"Your Highness, your actions in Baling Your Highness King Qin are also very regretful. I think your subordinates will also feel incomprehensible. I would like to remind Your Highness, even if your Highness is willing to bury the Situ family, others may not be willing. Even if your Highness does not consider it for himself, you should think about the people who have supported you and paid a lot for you." Seeing Situ Biao's whole body trembled, his face turned gray, Liang Chongxin knew that his words hit the other party's vital point. This was a good opportunity, "Actually,"

You don’t need to be too persistent, as you said just now, planning is in people and success is in heaven. You have already worked hard, but God has not stood on your side, and you have a clear conscience. If you force many things, it will cause people to fall into pain and dilemma. Your Highness King Qin is unwilling to see that situation. Didn’t His Highness Situ Jun, Lord Lang Yongquan and Lin Guoxiong all have been glorious? They can all accept reality calmly without choosing to destroy. Is Your Highness not as good as them?"

Situ Biao lowered his head silently, as if he was making his final confession for a long time. Until Hu Tingzhi and Liang Chongxin were a little surprised, Situ Biao raised his head and said in an almost exhausted voice: "General Liang, I think I can choose a suitable path for myself, but before that, I want to listen to your suggestions first."

He nodded slowly, Liang Chongxin's expression was relieved and understood at this moment: "No problem, Your Highness, since I, Liang, dare to come to Anqing, I, will naturally dare to take responsibility for everything. As long as the conditions proposed by Your Highness do not violate the principles, Liang can lead Your Highness to the King of Qin to agree first. I think Your Highness will definitely be happy to see this scene."

The end of the Five Lakes War even came faster than Jiangnan. This was expected and seemed to be a bit unexpected. Almost overnight, the imperial troops of Anqing, Wen Ning and Jinhua governments all put down their weapons. The Imperial Army led by the Sixth Army welcomed Situ Biao's announcement of stepping down. At the same time, they also announced the cessation of the civil war and accepted the reorganization of the Western Xinjiang Military Affairs Office. Liang Chongxin even went directly to the garrison of the Sixth Army alone. After having a long talk with Jin Zhiyang overnight, Liang Chongxin immediately announced that he would use the Sixth Army as the basis of the Imperial Army, mixing the remnants of other southern armies to form the temporary Ninth Army in the Western Xinjiang (the formal order needs to be signed by the King of Qin and issued by the Military Affairs Office). At the same time, he took on the responsibility of defending the border line between Wen Ning and Jinhua to prevent the Maqi Khan from taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

In just two months, it started from the eastern foot of Wushan Mountain in the west and ended at the seaside of the East Ocean. Its great rivers were all surrendered in a radius of thousands of miles. Their rolling and snow were enough to make anyone look at it. Even Wufeng never thought that Liang Chongxin and Cheng Dayou could smooth the entire south in just two months. Especially Liang Chongxin went to Anqing alone, and persuaded Situ Biao to step down automatically, and stabilized the Sixth Army of the Empire and the South in a timely manner.

The remnants of the Fang army used the other party's strength to stabilize the southern front and won the thirteen palaces of the empire for themselves. Such achievements are unmatched. Cheng Dayou's great wisdom and courage in this southern battle are also remarkable, especially the tenacity and tenacity his Eighth Legion showed when he was defending Jiujiang was no less than the elite of Western Xinjiang. The Eighth Legion stood proudly among the legions of Western Xinjiang.

In the Imperial Capital, the Executive Minister Lu Wenfu's mansion was brightly lit in the chamber, and the fish candles surrounding it made the entire study room brighter, but this could not hide the gloomy and haze in everyone's hearts.

The girl with a snow-white face looked even more cold at this time. Lu Wenfu's face was a little gloomy and a little melancholy. Minister of Military Affairs Jilin just sighed. Minister of Finance Tian Yi had already resigned because of illness, but he had not yet obtained approval. He was also invited to Lu Wenfu's mansion today. It seemed that he was only a little calmer among the people. Minister of Home Affairs Sidon simply closed his eyes and said nothing, obviously he did not want to comment on the news he received.

"I didn't expect Liang Chongxin and Cheng Dayou to give up Anqing and attack eastward. This was beyond our expectations. I wonder if His Highness of Yan could have enough troops to deal with the troops in Weiyang and Gusu?" Some people asked this question in a vain. As the Minister of Military Affairs, Jilin seemed to have long forgotten the position of his Minister of Military Affairs. The question should have been asked by others.

"Hmph, Lord Jilin, do you still need to ask this question? Almost all the power of His Highness King Yan is on the Yanyun line. Not to mention Jiangnan, there are not many troops in the mainland of Yanyun that can fight. Liang Chongxin and Cheng Dayou have seen through Jiangnan's weakness and then marched eastward. Now it's time to let His Highness King Xiang fight to the death." Almost gritted his teeth and uttered these words. Sidon, who suddenly opened his eyes, was originally not interested in these military affairs, but the vigorous advancement of Western Xinjiang has already made him foresee the fate of himself and everyone he represented when Li Wufeng entered the imperial capital in a big way. Who can let go of life and death at will?

"Let Your Highness Xiang fight to the death? What to fight? Is it the Sixth Legion, which was seriously injured in vitality or the mixed wood fruits that cannot be reached?" Jilin hummed disdainfully. He had always maintained this humble attitude and seemed to have lost confidence in the current situation in front of him, and even his attitude was not so careful. Faced with his former incompatible colleagues, he seemed to no longer want to deliberately hide anything.

"You! Well said, the scattered fruits are not allowed to go to the table, so let your 8th and 9th legion go and see how these so-called legions controlled by the central government can perform? Is it just to use so much money and food, can't it be just a decoration there?" Sidon laughed angrily and fought back sinisterly.

Jilin was speechless for a while. In the eyes of everyone, the Eighth Ninth Legion was just a useless rib. It was a pity to abandon it. It was tasteless to eat it. It was impossible to feel relieved wherever it was placed. However, it seemed a pity to be disbanded. After all, it was still an army that had been initially trained, but it had not experienced the battle formation. The ministers were disdainful of the performance of these two legions, but Jilin could not do so. There was a lack of funds, equipment, and experienced officers. There was nothing. Can you still expect it to become a lion of battles?
