Such mobilization of large armies is no trivial matter, nor is it a child's game. Unless the Emperor specified which troops to dispatch, the Chief Councilor could not easily mobilize them.
"Your Majesty, I believe there is no time to lose. It would be best to dispatch a detachment of the Imperial Guard to assist the border forces in defense. If the timing is right, we could launch a frontal assault on Tianmen Pass, retaking the frontier so that the east of Dajin can finally have peace," said Zhou Shibo.
"The Imperial Guard are here to protect the Imperial City and cannot be easily moved. Just send some garrison troops instead!"
