Although the four princes understood this truth, his heart was very upset. The person who gave the order was his Lao Tzu, the emperor of their country, and his heart was still upset.
After rushing back to the country and formally taking over all the domestic troops, the four princes' hearts have swelled. He feels that he is the most powerful and important person in Feng Jueguo. The whole country's military is now in his own hands. In the hands of everyone, everyone must listen to their orders, and what they say is what they say.
However, now the four princes suddenly realized that all of this was his illusion. He was not the person with the most authority in Feng Jueguo, and not everyone would listen to his orders. In the country of Feng Jueguo, the most powerful The person of Quan is still the old emperor, his father, even if he basically does not show up now, he is not in front of the stage, but he can still mobilize many people with just one sentence, and he is more influential than himself. .
This discovery made the four princes feel very upset. He had become accustomed to his own words and accustomed to others to obey his orders, but now that such a thing happened, the four princes were really hard to accept.
Perhaps it was because the face of the four princes was not good, an assistant next to him comforted: "His Majesty, I think your Majesty still trusts you very much. He is also worried about you, afraid that you may make any mistakes."
"Yes, I also think that your Majesty believes in His Highness. Otherwise, you won't hand over all the troops of the whole country to your Highness, let alone appoint you as the main general of this decisive battle with Yuanfeng Kingdom." The staff at the door also said.
The two said that, the four princes' complexion finally improved. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is indeed the case. If the old emperor doesn’t trust him, he won’t be allowed to be the main general, and he won’t be allowed to be a domestic leader. The army obeyed their orders.
"I think this situation is happening now. It must be the unwilling princes who are making trouble in it. They are eager for your Royal Highness to lose command in this battle. If this is the case, they will have a chance to get the position of this general." The staff member continued: "Now that the gates of the city are not allowed to be opened, it means that the troops outside the city are not allowed to return to the city. In this case, it will appear that your first order is wrong, causing you to lose strength and face."
"You made this suggestion first." His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince looked at him and said.
"Yes, it was the Weichen's mention. This is the Weichen's fault." The aides said quickly: "However, the Weichen didn't expect that there would be other princes who would hinder him from opening the city gate."
The four princes did not speak. Obviously, he was also dissatisfied with the actions of other princes, very dissatisfied.
In the eyes of the four princes, now, he is the one closest to the throne. Other princes, if they are interested, should abandon their illusions that they shouldn't have, and take the initiative to show their favor. Perhaps they will not embarrass them.
However, now those princes not only didn't give up, they didn't take the initiative to show their kindness, but they still used it as a stalker, wanting to see their own jokes, which is simply unforgivable.
"You can't let them idle like this, and wait to find them some trouble." The Fourth Prince said.
Since the princes had already taken action, the four princes did not intend to be passively beaten. He wanted to fight back and let those people know that now, only he was the only heir to the throne, and all of them should give up.
These staff members are not unfamiliar with this kind of calculation of others. They used to dare to do this kind of thing before, so they soon thought of some ways with the Fourth Prince.
However, this time it is obvious that the four princes wronged the other princes. Although those princes are indeed trying to find a way to add some trouble to the four princes, they still have no right to decide on such a major matter. , The defenders at the gate of the city were also sent by the old emperor. They have nothing to do with the other princes. The old emperor will not allow other princes to make trouble in the event of a decisive battle against Yuanfeng. of.
However, the old emperor sent troops there. At the beginning, they wanted these people to pick up the people who came out of the city at night to avoid any accidents. However, at the last moment, the general who was sent by the old emperor chose When he returned to the city, he closed the city gate. Not only did he not accept the troops outside the city, but he also denied them the opportunity to enter the city.
The general did this, of course, not because the other princes bought him, but because he had discovered that Yuanfeng’s army had not been far and near, and they were not hurriedly adorned with the wind and the country leaving the city. That army, therefore, the general judged that Yuanfeng's army obviously wanted to use the wind and the country's army out of the city to open the way, so they could easily enter the city.
At this time, of course, it’s not possible to let Yuanfeng’s army enter the city. In that case, wouldn’t the city defense facilities they prepared during this time be useless at all?
Therefore, the general immediately retreated to the city, and at the same time, closed the city gate, not giving Yuan Feng Guo's army a chance to enter the city.
The general did not expect that his own approach to the overall situation would arouse dissatisfaction and suspicion from the four princes. He felt that he was bought by other princes to target his four princes. However, this is not the case. This general is Loyal to the old emperor, not a certain prince.
In fact, there are many such situations. Even among the generals under the four princes, most of them are loyal to the old emperor, not him. The reason why he obeyed his orders was because the old emperor ordered them to do so. That's it.
However, this gave the four princes an illusion, feeling that he is now the person with the most rights in the entire Feng Jue country. Even the old emperor is inferior to him, but he does not know that he is just a chess piece pushed by the old emperor. , It’s good to play beautifully. If you don’t play well, you will be taken down immediately, and you don’t have much power at all.
"It's a pity, Feng Jueguo is quite cautious." Huang Feng sighed as he looked at the closed city gate.
Huang Feng did want to use this opportunity to bring the army into the city, but he did not expect that Feng Jueguo's army was very alert and did not give him this opportunity.
However, Huang Feng didn’t care very much either. This time he couldn’t. Just look for the next opportunity. Anyway, the initiative is now in his hands. He is not very anxious. It is really not possible. Hard attack is, anyway, he does. Certainly, the reason why he didn't choose to attack hard was completely because he didn't want to lose too much, not because he didn't feel that he could not beat the defenders in the city.
