Now that the matter of the Moonless Empire had been settled, Chu Wuming had successfully ascended to the position of Crown Prince and held great power.
The current Moonless Empire had indeed presented a rather strange image. That was, the Emperor had no real power in his hands, while the Crown Prince held great power in his hands.
The military and politics of the empire were all firmly controlled by Chu Wuming. As for Chu Mu, he was more like a symbol of the Moonless Empire. He didn't have the slightest bit of authority, and was just like the mascot of the Moonless Empire.
However, Chu Wuming did not break his promise to Chu Mu. Other than not giving him any power, he still provided him with good food and drinks, allowing him to live out his remaining years in the palace.
Originally, the situation of the Moonless Empire had just stabilized, so it was not the best time to attack the Heavenly Wolf Empire. However, Xiao Chen did not have much time left, so the destruction of the Heavenly Wolf Empire was imperative.
Xiao Chen gave Chu Wuming a few days' time. After he had successfully walked out of the matter with Chu Wuque and Chu Wushuang, Xiao Chen sought him out to discuss the matter of attacking the Heavenly Wolf Empire.
Chu Wuming now knew that it was not the best time to attack the Heavenly Wolf Empire. However, since Xiao Chen had said so, Chu Wuming did not refuse. In front of Xiao Chen, Chu Wuming did not have the dignity of a Crown Prince. It could be said that he listened to everything Xiao Chen said.
Soon, they decided on the plan to attack the Heavenly Wolf Empire. This time, the Moonless Empire wanted to destroy the Heavenly Wolf Empire in one fell swoop. Therefore, this war could be said to be a war between the two empires.
Before the war began, the first problem to be dealt with was the Gale Empire. Since they wanted to start an all-out war with the Heavenly Wolf Empire, the Moonless Empire had to concentrate their forces at Hulao Pass. In this way, their defense against the Gale Empire would naturally be much weaker. Therefore, in order to guard against the Gale Empire's sneak attack, the Moonless Empire naturally had to send people to the Gale Empire to discuss.
As for who to send, Xiao Chen had already thought about it. Zhang Qi and an elder of the Tianqi Sect were the most suitable.
First of all, the elder of the Celestial Equal Sect represented the Celestial Equal Sect. This could make the Gale Empire wary to a certain extent. After all, the Celestial Equal Sect was also involved in this matter. When the Gale Empire took action, they had no choice but to consider the Celestial Equal Sect.
After confirming the candidates, Xiao Chen ordered the two of them to set off on the same day. This time, in order to persuade the Gale Empire, Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming discussed and decided to give one-third of the Heavenly Wolf Empire's territory to the Gale Empire.
In other words, the Gale Empire didn't need to participate in this war, but they couldn't sneak attack the Moonless Empire. After the war, if the Moonless Empire won, the Gale Empire would get one-third of the Sky Wolf Empire's territory.
Such a condition could be said to be extremely generous. As long as the Gale Empire was not stupid, they would definitely not refuse. In this way, the Moonless Empire would be able to deal with the war with the Heavenly Wolf Empire with all their strength.
Zhang Qi and the elder of the Celestial Equal Sect left for the Gale Empire on the same day through the teleportation formation. With the teleportation formation, the two of them could return within a few days.
At the same time, at the same time that the two of them left for the Gale Empire, Chu Wuming also began to mobilize the army. He mobilized nearly ninety percent of the Moonless Empire's forces to Hulao Pass, leaving less than a million troops at the border with the Gale Empire.
In order to complete the mobilization of the army in a short period of time, Chu Wuming could be said to have spared no expense and used all the spirit stones in the treasury.
Faced with Chu Wuming's actions, some of the Moonless Empire's ministers supported it, while others strongly opposed it. Even Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai had no choice but to step in.
After all, Chu Wuming's actions clearly indicated that he wanted to fight to the death with the Heavenly Wolf Empire. Once the war started, they would either win, or the Moonless Empire's strength would be greatly reduced, or even be destroyed.
Within Wuhe Palace, on this day, the Moonless Empire's civil and military officials, as well as Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai, gathered together. Chu Wuming sat below the throne.
Faced with Chu Wuming, many of the ministers expressed their opinions.
"Your Highness, this war is not feasible. Right now, our Moonless Empire has just stabilized. If we rashly start a war with the Heavenly Wolf Empire, it will be too dangerous."
"That's right, Your Highness. The Heavenly Wolf Empire's strength is not inferior to our Moonless Empire. If we start an all-out war, the outcome will be hard to predict. I hope Your Highness will reconsider."
"I implore Your Highness to reconsider."
This war was truly too important, so many of the ministers tried their best to persuade Chu Wuming to reconsider. However, faced with the dissuasion of many ministers, Chu Wuming spoke neither hurriedly nor slowly in a deep voice.
"Everyone, there's no need to say more. I've already made up my mind. Moreover, our Moonless Empire will definitely be loud in this war. When the time comes, our Moonless Empire will become the strongest empire in Danyang County."
Chu Wuming was full of confidence. Hearing this, many of the large achievements looked at each other. They did not know what Chu Wuming was planning. Even Chu Qingshan asked curiously. "Nameless, what plan do you have? Can you just say it?"
Chu Qingshan needed an explanation from Chu Wuming. After all, this was a war that concerned the survival of the Moonless Empire. Chu Wuming naturally could not refuse. After all, Chu Qingshan was the Retired Emperor. His status was above that of the Crown Prince.
After letting the ministers leave, when only Chu Wuming, Chu Qingshan, and Chu Mubai remained in Wuhe Palace, Chu Wuming slowly spoke.
"Ancestor, your grandson indeed has absolute confidence in winning this war."
"Oh, tell me in detail." Hearing this, Chu Qingshan said.
"Because in this attack on the Heavenly Wolf Empire, Tiger Leopard Ridge will do their best to help. With our Moonless Empire, Tiger Leopard Ridge, and Tianqi Sect, how can the Heavenly Wolf Empire not be destroyed?"
Without hiding anything, he told Chu Qingshan the truth. The reason why Chu Wuming had absolute confidence in winning this war was because of Tiger Leopard Ridge.
In Wuhe Palace, Chu Wuming spent a total of four hours before he finally managed to convince Chu Qingshan. If even Chu Qingshan agreed to it this time around, then no one would be able to stop this battle.
At the same time, Chu Qingshan and Chu Mubai naturally would not just watch from the sidelines. At the same time, the Burning Sky Ruler would also take action.
The Moonless Empire's army continuously gathered at Hulao Pass. Such a large movement was naturally received by the Heavenly Wolf Empire. At this moment, in the Heavenly Wolf Empire's palace, the Heavenly Wolf Emperor looked at the ministers below and said in a low voice.
"All of you, what do you think the Moonless Empire wants? Could it be that they truly want to start an all-out war with our Heavenly Wolf Empire? "
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Moonless Empire's situation has just stabilized. Logically speaking, they should not start a war at this time." Hearing the Heavenly Wolf Emperor's question, a minister respectfully replied.
"Since that is the case, why is the Moonless Empire's army continuously gathering at Hulao Pass? Is this not a sign of a war breaking out? "The Heavenly Wolf Emperor coldly said.
