I, make my own

Chapter 110
The seventh day of March.

In the Great Chu Dynasty, Jin Ge and Bihai allied forces in the southern camp.

Handsome account.

"What did you say? Da Zhou sent troops?"

Hearing the sudden news, Bihai Dynasty Chariot General Cheng Huai couldn't help being surprised.

"Hui Chengshuai, Da Zhou has indeed dispatched troops, and they are marching in three ways."

The school captain Su Rong who came to report the letter nodded.

"Among them, the first route is composed of the Wuwu Legion, Huben Army, and Frontier Army that destroyed the Silla Dynasty, with a total strength of 40. They are currently heading straight for the Great Chu Emperor's Capital from the east of the Great Chu Dynasty."

"The second route is the Bi Fang Legion stationed in the Dingkun Prefecture of the Great Zhou. Judging from its direction, it should also go straight to the Imperial Capital of the Great Chu."

"The last third route is the gluttonous army led by Xiao Sui, the first commander of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They did not come to this battlefield, but entered the frontier between Jin Ge and Great Chu..."

Cheng Huai's expression sank, and his eyes were full of fear.

"Trouble is still coming."

On the opposite side, Wen Hexuan, the hussar general of the Jin Ge Dynasty, chuckled lightly, a little indifferently.

"What trouble are you afraid of?"

"The commander-in-chief was still thinking that this big week might have to learn the same trick as in Silla again, and he won't take the lead until the two sides have completely decided the outcome. I didn't expect it to be a step ahead."

"However, it's better to advance ahead of time. Anyway, there will be a battle with Da Zhou sooner or later. Taking this opportunity to repel him will save a lot of trouble."

Cheng Huai frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Wen Shuai, don't be careless. The battle of Xitongguan is still in front of you, and the Zhou army is powerful. If you are not careful, you will have to come back!"

Wen Hexuan narrowed his eyes, and a cold look flashed in the slits of his eyes.

The Battle of Xitongguan was a rare and humiliating battle in the history of the Jin Ge Dynasty, and now that Chenghuai brought it up again, it naturally made him unhappy.

However, he was a rather mature commander after all, and he did not show any anger.

"Of course, the commander knows the strength of Zhou's army, but so what? As the most powerful country in the world, how can my Jin Ge Dynasty not have the finale army?"

Cheng Huai was taken aback for a moment, and then wondered: "Could it be that your country secretly sent other reinforcements?"

Wen Hexuan shook his head, and said in a low voice: "With our current military strength, it is inevitable to break through the imperial capital of Great Chu and win the entire Great Chu. Why do we need to send another [-] reinforcements?"

Cheng Huai's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked in surprise: "Could it be that the one hundred thousand army is not a frontier army?"

"Naturally. Everyone knows that the first heavy cavalry of the Jin Ge Dynasty is the Golden Sun Cavalry, but few people know that we also have a first heavy infantry..."

Wen Hexuan said in a low voice with a smile on his face.

"The first pawn..."

Cheng Huai whispered softly, his curiosity was completely aroused.

Because he had never heard of any infantry of the Jin Ge Dynasty being crowned the title of "No. [-]".

"I don't know which army is in your country?"

"This army is called the Mo'er Army. Not to mention one against ten, one against five is not a problem. If it wasn't for the purpose of targeting Da Zhou who might get involved, our court would not send it out."

Even Wen Hexuan's city mansion could not help showing a little complacency and arrogance when mentioning the Mo'er Army.

"So that's the case. If the Mo'er army is really as powerful as Wen Shuai said, then the threat of Da Zhou can indeed be lifted."

While the two were talking, two Chuanxin captains rushed into the commander's tent one after the other.

"Report! I report to Wen Shuai! Your Majesty has a decree that our army must break through the Great Chu Imperial Capital and take it down before the Zhou army arrives! Then concentrate our forces and defeat the Zhou army!"

"Report! Invite Cheng Shuai! The Ministry of War has an order that our army must take down the imperial capital of Great Chu and defeat the remnant army of Great Chu before the arrival of the Zhou army! Concentrate on repelling the Zhou army!"

"Sir, take the lead!"

Wen Hexuan stood up, cupped his fists towards the northwest, and then smiled at Chenghuai.

If the order is unified, it will be easy to handle.

Otherwise, what kind of chaos might become.

"Come on!"

"exist!"

"Send an order to Deputy Marshal Liu of the camp on the northern front, and order him to support our troops. The main force will go out together, break through the last line of defense of the Chu army within two days, and take down the Great Chu Imperial Capital within half a day!"

"promise!"

……

The imperial capital of Great Chu, the imperial palace.

"Da Zhou sent troops? Da Zhou really sent troops?!"

The emperor of Chu, Chu Ziyu, went up against the case, asking for confirmation repeatedly in disbelief.

"Return to Your Majesty, Da Chu has indeed dispatched troops, and they are marching in three ways!"

Yan Ge, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, nodded his head heavily, with no doubts.

Chu Ziyu was suddenly surprised and happy, and laughed.

"Okay! Okay! This big week, the troops are finally dispatched!"

At this time, a discordant voice suddenly sounded.

"Da Zhou sent troops, but their purpose is still unknown. If they also came with the intention of swallowing up my Da Chu, how would they be different from Jin Ge and the jackals of the blue sea?"

Chu Ziyu's smile froze for an instant, and his face changed unsteadily.

At this time, one person came out and retorted:

"Master Yuan's words are wrong, as the so-called lips are dead and teeth are cold. For Da Zhou, I, Da Chu, are the lips that stand in front of them. If the lips are dead, then their 'teeth' will face the two enemies directly."

"Da Zhou chose to send troops at this time, which just proves that they only want to weaken our dynasty's strength, not directly swallow up our dynasty."

"If not, wouldn't it be better for them to wait until my great Chu is really subjugated?"

"Furthermore, Da Zhou has just won Silla not long ago, and the affairs during it are complicated. It will take several years to stabilize the people's hearts."

"Under such circumstances, how could they recklessly expand their territory and even face two powerful enemies? Isn't that just asking for trouble?"

"Therefore, I believe that the Great Zhou will definitely threaten our dynasty to pay an astonishing price, but it will not directly swallow up our dynasty. Because keeping our dynasty as a buffer zone between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Jin Ge and Bihai dynasties is of great benefit to them. No harm."

After listening to this person's words, all the officials in the palace couldn't help talking.

"Master Sun's words are reasonable."

"Indeed, the military strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty has always been strong, and the battle of Xitong Pass was even more impressive. This time, the Great Zhou sent troops here. With the cooperation of our army, we will be able to repel the enemies of the two dynasties in one fell swoop!"

"My big Chu is finally saved!"

Hearing the one-sided echo in the hall, Yuan Song, the Zuo doctor who had spoken before, couldn't help frowning.

He wanted to say something, but finally held back.

As the saying goes: Public anger is hard to offend.

At this juncture, it is a wise choice to protect yourself wisely and seek a way out.

On the throne, Chu Ziyu smiled happily again, feeling that the boulder on his heart suddenly lifted most of it.

"Your Majesty, both Jin Ge and Bi Hai must have received the news of the Great Zhou's dispatch of troops. I estimate that they will definitely attack all fronts and attack with the whole army, hoping to defeat our army and take the imperial capital before Zhou's army arrives." !"

Yan Ge, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, reminded him aloud.

Chu Ziyu's heart tightened, and the smile on his face was once again replaced by anxiety and hesitation.

"In Aiqing's opinion, how should we deal with it now?"

"Your Majesty, for the current plan, immediately order all the troops outside the city to enter the city, and rely on the imperial capital to improve the defense system to defend against the enemy!"

"The reason why we had to defend against the enemy outside the city before was to contain the enemy army and prevent the enemy army from encircling the imperial capital, making the imperial capital an isolated city."

"Now that the Great Zhou has sent troops here, it doesn't matter if the imperial capital becomes an isolated city or not. We just need to concentrate our forces and defend the city for a few days until the Zhou army arrives, and the present difficulties may be overcome."

"Conversely, continuing to let the main force defend against the enemy outside the city will only weaken our advantage and give the enemy a chance to divide and break."

Chu Ziyu didn't know much about the way of fighting, but he still had a lot of trust in the ability of the minister of the Ministry of War, so he agreed with kindness.

"Alright, let the army outside the city enter the city to defend according to Aiqing's wishes."

"Wait a minute."

Yuan Song couldn't hold back, and spoke again.

"Your Majesty, Yan Shangshu's proposal is indeed appropriate. However, there is one thing to beware of."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Chu Ziyu was a little displeased with Yuan Song, but still asked a question patiently.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the shoulder-to-shoulder king had a rift with Da Zhou before. If he knew that Da Zhou had sent troops, it would be impossible for the shoulder-to-shoulder king to have other thoughts."

"If he has a different heart, the defense of the imperial capital will change from impregnable to crumbling."

"Therefore, the minister proposes that the side-by-side king should not participate in the defensive command, and his troops should not be assigned to the city gate, just in case."

After listening to Yuan Song's suggestion, Chu Ziyu was unabashedly speechless.

"Yuan Aiqing, you think too much! In ancient times, there are many people who are enemies on the front foot and friends on the back foot."

"The King's Army did have battles with the Great Zhou before, but that's how the world fights. If you hit me today, and you and I will join forces to fight against others in the future, what's so special about it?"

"This kind of enmity can't be counted, and no one will count it. Besides, the last time the battle was fought, it was his son-in-law Liu Fengwu who made a rash move, so it can't be counted as the king's side-by-side, and Da Zhou won."

"What's more, if we really want to talk about enmity, Jin Ge, Bihai and the side-by-side king have the greatest enmity, so the side-by-side king will not turn to these two parties, right?"

"That's why, Yuan Aiqing, you should avoid talking about things in the future. Not only is it useless, but it will also destroy internal unity."

Yuan Song opened his mouth, feeling really mixed in his heart, dumbfounded.

His Majesty's words seemed to make sense at first glance, but unfortunately, what he said were all superficial things, and he never grasped the fundamental point at all.

Forget it, he has fulfilled his duty as a courtier, and there is nothing the emperor can do if he doesn't listen to him.

……

When the court meeting was over and Yuan Song was about to leave the palace, a servant suddenly appeared and brought him into the Palace of Kunning.

Kunning Palace, this is the residence of Empress Da Chu.

"My lord, Yuan Song, the doctor left, pay my respects to the queen!"

Yuan Song saluted respectfully towards the inside through a layer of gauze curtain.

"My palace already knows the course of the court meeting. Among all the courtiers in the court, Mr. Yuan is the only one with clear eyesight and clear mind. It is sad to say the least."

Yuan Song narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the melodious sigh from the inside.

"It's unbelievable that the empress is so concerned about the affairs of the government..."

"Hehe, do you want to take care of yourself when I am this palace? With His Majesty's mind, if this palace hadn't kept mentioning something secretly, Da Chu might not be able to survive today..."

The queen's words were clearly a big taboo, but Yuan Song could only respond with silence.

Because what the queen said is not wrong, he knows what kind of mind that His Majesty is.

Over the years, His Majesty has been confused about small things, but he has been decent in major matters. He has always guessed that there should be someone capable behind His Majesty to give some advice.

It's just that he didn't expect that this person turned out to be a queen with a great reputation but a low sense of existence...

After a long silence, Yuan Song said in a deep voice, "I don't know why the empress called you this time?"

"This ship can no longer hold on, and it is time to let go. I am looking for you because we have a common choice."

Yuan Song let out a sigh of relief, and then bowed again.

"Willing to follow the empress' orders!"

If he dares not to obey, it is impossible for him to step out of this hall today...
