Chapter 257

In the ninth year of the Great Summer Calendar 510, the eighth day of the seventh month.

On this day, the barbarians formally attacked Daxia. Marquis Pingxi led the black iron army to fight the barbarians at the border. For three days in a row, the barbarians had the upper hand. Although the 60 black iron army was damaged, the barbarians retreated steadily.

After this news spread to Daxiadu, immediately, the whole sky was lit with a burst of firecrackers, and the crowd was excited and cheered.

The common people in Daxia naturally knew about the news of the barbarian invasion of Daxia. Now that Marquis Pingxi has won the battle, the people are naturally very happy.

Even the prince in the palace was in a good mood and had prepared corresponding rewards. Once Ping Xihou won the battle, he would send people directly to transport him to the border.

All of a sudden, the name of Marquis Pingxi resounded all over the world, and countless common people called Marquis Pingxi the God of War in Daxia. As long as he is there, the border of Daxia will be safe for a day, and the barbarians will never be able to invade the territory of Daxia. .

However, the good times didn't last long. Just when the people of Tiandu were cheering, five days later, a news of an urgent [-] li spread to the Tiandu Imperial Palace.

Frontier defeat!

The barbarians and the Liuhe Sect joined forces to set a trap on the border, and sent out eight martial arts masters to besiege Pingxihou!

And under the desperate protection of all the soldiers under his command and the Xuantie Army, Ping Xihou seized the one in ten thousand chance and escaped from death, but he was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread. He is still lying unconscious on the bed until now.

Now, the border of Yanzhou is in chaos, and demons are dancing!
After this battle, the Xuantie Army lost more than 30 yuan, and of the 60 yuan Xuantie Army, now there are only less than 30 left, and each of them is wounded!

Not only that, even the border coach Ping Xihou's life is hanging by a thread, he is always in a coma, and he may die immediately.

After the great victory, the barbarian army drove straight into the Great Wilderness Mansion, and the Xuantie Army retreated again and again. At the same time, a group of Demon Sect warriors, including the Shengming Sect and the Daheitian Sect under the Liuhe Sect, appeared in various prefectures and counties in Yanzhou, and a large number of ghosts Appeared, the entire Yanzhou is now in jeopardy.

In just a few days, nearly 20 people died, and there were countless bones in the Dahuang Mansion, and blood flowed like rivers!
This kind of news cannot be concealed, and soon, as soon as this news comes out, the world is boiling!

The people of the thirteen prefectures under the jurisdiction of the Great Xia, especially the other two big prefectures in Yanzhou, were already in extreme panic, and the entire Great Xia fell into an atmosphere of extreme depression where everyone felt insecure.

At this moment, in the morning court of Great Xia, the Golden Luan Hall was already in a state of explosion!

All the ministers are arguing because of the situation in Yanzhou.

In the Great Xia Imperial Palace, on the Golden Luan Hall, Prince Ji Yuan sat at the head, his expression extremely serious.

Down below, the officials were arguing, and the quarrel was so intense that they blamed each other and said everything. In the end, even some civil servants and generals almost started to fight.

The prince opened his mouth several times, trying to dissuade him, but to no avail. Apart from being angry, he was a little helpless.

"quiet!"

At this time, Duke Huai spoke. His complexion was serious and his eyes were as sharp as a falcon. On this prince who did not know martial arts, there was a frightening majesty.

At this moment, all the ministers caught by Duke Huai's eyes trembled and closed their mouths, not daring to make any more movements.

The entire Golden Luan Hall was suddenly restored to silence again.

Immediately, Duke Huai glanced at the prince and signaled for him to speak.

The crown prince frowned, and said: "My dear friends, the situation in Yanzhou is urgent now, and I am also very anxious, but what problem can quarrel solve?"

"The most important thing at the moment is how to break the situation in Yanzhou!"

Everyone in the Golden Luan Hall knew that if Yanzhou fell, the impact on Daxia would be enormous, and this matter was even countless times more serious than the visit of the Dayuan Mission.

Now, there is Dayuan on the eastern front, who is always watching the situation. If Yanzhou falls, the national power of Daxia will drop sharply, and at the same time, most of the people's hearts will be lost. It is possible to send troops directly to attack Daxia.

At that time, the Great Xia, which has lasted for more than [-] years, is very likely to fall apart.

And the prince, including King Huai, is a group of officials in the Jinluan Palace, so they are all sinners, and they will be recorded in the annals of history and will be left in the history for thousands of years.

Especially the crown prince, the records of him in the history books must have only four big characters at the end: the king of subjugation!
At this time, Uncle Dingyuan and Uncle Wuwei came out, and Qi Qi said: "The Marquis of Pingxi is brave and good at fighting, and he is the top three handsome talents in Daxia. The barbarians attacked Daxia. , but it was because of the sudden appearance of the Demon Cult that Marquis Pingxi was seriously injured and dying, and Yanzhou was about to fall, I think that all of this is the responsibility of Jing Tiansi."

"As far as I know, Qin Wu, the deputy commander of the Jingtian Division, sent Gu Chen to support Yanzhou, but such a major event still happened in Yanzhou. What does it mean? It must be because of Gu Chen's negligence of duty and connivance with the Demon Cult. Your Highness punishes Gu Chen severely!"

Hearing this, the crown prince's face suddenly became a little ugly. At this time, Liang Guogong came out and said: "Your Highness, I think that now is not the time to pursue responsibility. Besides, we have only heard about the situation in Yanzhou. It is not the parties involved, and now there should be no further incidents, the most important thing is to combine the strength of everyone and think of a way to break the situation."

The crown prince nodded and said, "Ai Qing is right."

At this time, Uncle Dingyuan said: "Before, the Marquis of Pingxi had heard about the increase of troops, but His Highness did not agree at that time. I thought that we should immediately increase the number of troops and send a large army to the border!"

Wu Weibo also said: "I have heard that the barbarians obtained the legacy of the ancient gods and demons in the 23 mountains, and because of this, they recovered the vitality lost due to the war [-] years ago. Together, the attack is menacing, and there may be unworldly masters of martial arts among the barbarians, I think that while sending the army to go, Qin Wu, the deputy commander of Jing Tiansi, should also be sent to fight in person."

At this time, Chen Yuanli, Minister of the Ministry of War, came out and said: "I think what Uncle Dingyuan and Uncle Wuwei said is reasonable."

Immediately, all the ministers echoed.

The prince frowned and pondered, thinking about the feasibility of this method. After all, the deputy commander of Jingtiansi is the top grandmaster in the spiritual realm. If there is no accident, he should stay in Tiandu all the time. All come first.

But now, Yanzhou is in great chaos, the situation is urgent, and the barbarians seem to have obtained the legacy of the ancient gods and demons, their strength has recovered, and they are even better than before. If many people die, the national strength of Daxia will also weaken.

That being the case, it would be better to let Jing Tiansi's deputy commander, Qin Wu, dispatch to suppress the chaotic situation in Yanzhou with the strongest combat power, and solve everything by cutting the mess quickly.

The prince believes that even though the barbarians received the legacy of the ancient gods and demons in the depths of the Shiwan Dashan, the top powerhouses in it were almost dead and injured 23 years ago, and it is impossible to recover so quickly.

If he recovers, there will be no 50 barbarian army attacking the border, and the top powerhouse can directly assassinate Ping Xihou without such trouble, and the war will end in an instant.

At this time, the prince turned his head and looked at Duke Huai, asking for his opinion.

Duke Huai frowned slightly, as if he was also thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and after a while, he nodded.

At this time, Chen Yuanli, Minister of the Ministry of War, said, "Your Highness, how much do you want to send troops to Yanzhou?"

The thirteen prefectures of Daxia, except Yanzhou, are all very tense, and for so many years, Daxia has spent a lot of money on the treasury in order to deal with demons and ghosts. This is also the reason why Pingxihou wanted to increase his troops, but the prince did not agree. .

But now, it's time to increase the number of troops, but the amount of the increase is a big deal.

At this time, Chen Yuanli, Minister of the Ministry of War, said again: "There is one more thing, Your Highness, lord, who is leading the increase in troops this time?"

In today's border, Marquis Pingxi was severely injured and unconscious. Even if he had to increase his troops, it would be impossible if he didn't have a leader.

Although Qin Wu, the deputy commander of Jingtian Division, has a strong cultivation base, he is not handsome after all, and his ability to lead troops in battle is not strong. It is okay to fight with dozens of people and hundreds of people, but if tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of troops are handed over Give Qin Wu command, he does not have this kind of ability.

Therefore, this is what Ping Xihou is most precious to Da Xia.

"Let me go."

The prince turned his gaze, and the person who spoke was Duke Liang.

Liangguo Highway Sheng said: "Before Pingxihou, it was the old man who guarded the border and deterred the barbarians. Now that Pingxihou is in a coma, the old man is the most suitable candidate."

"No."

Hearing that Duke Liang wanted to go far to the border, the crown prince immediately refused, saying: "Master Liang, I know that you are concerned about the country and the people, but now that you are old, it is time to take care of yourself. Yanzhou is in chaos and it is too dangerous. The palace cannot agree."

Not to mention that Duke Liang is old, it is because he has been fighting on the border all year round, and he has a lot of hidden injuries on his body. The reason why the Liangguo Guild retired and returned to Tiandu was because he was seriously injured in the last battle, which caused serious health problems. Even his cultivation has regressed a lot.

The stellar energy environment might be okay in normal times, but in the current situation in Yanzhou, it is useless. Even Ping Xihou, as a master of martial arts, can be assassinated and seriously injured, let alone Liang Guogong.

Liang Guogong said: "Your Highness, do you think there are other suitable candidates besides the minister?"

Hearing this, the prince glanced at the officials, he very much hoped that some of them would stand up and be willing to go to the border.

But unfortunately, the prince was disappointed. Even now, no one is willing to take the initiative to come out. After all, the situation in Yanzhou is too dangerous.

This group of princes and princes are all old, and they are used to enjoying life in the sky. It is absolutely impossible for them to come up with ideas and use their mouths. It is absolutely impossible for them to go to war in person and go to the desolate and climate-changing border. of.

Seeing this, the prince suddenly clenched his fists, and his complexion became a little ugly.

But even so, the officials still didn't seem to see the expression and gaze of the prince, they stood there with lowered eyebrows, looking at the prince's expression and eyes, like an old monk in meditation.

At this moment, Duke Huai said, "Let Duke Liang go. Among the ministers, he knows the border best. If we let others go, it may take a long time to adapt to the environment. Now we don't have that time."

"Thank you, my lord, for your success." Duke Liang saluted immediately.

"But..." The crown prince frowned. Liang Guogong rarely supported him, and he was old and loyal to Daxia. He really didn't want Liang Guogong to take this risk.

However, as Duke Huai said, apart from Liang Guogong, there was indeed no other suitable candidate.

"Let Qin Wu send people, the commander of Yanzhou Jingtian Division will personally protect Liang Guogong." Huai Wang said in a deep voice.

Obviously, even King Huai didn't want Duke Liang to go to the border, but now, there was really no better way.

Seeing this, the prince could only nod helplessly.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Liang Guogong clasped his fists and raised his voice.
