This emperor is too strong!

Chapter 184 David's crisis, undercurrents intertwined

On the seventh day of August, night.

The Qing'an Mansion of the David Dynasty, the camp of the Central Army of the Chu Army.

In the handsome tent, more than a dozen generals sat with their heads bowed, and the atmosphere was dull.

They have captured nearly [-]% of David's territory, and they will soon be able to take down David's imperial capital.

But who would have thought that at this critical juncture, an unexpected and unacceptable drastic change would happen in the local area?

The Great Xia Dynasty suddenly raised troops to invade the Great Chu. Although this incident made them shocked, it did not lead to chaos.

Because the mainland still has more than 100 million troops and a huge reserve force, at least there is no need to worry about the survival of the mainland in a short period of time.

However, only two or three days before Da Xia sent troops, they received all kinds of sad news that the Wanglong camp was breached, the imperial capital was attacked, and the Queen Mother and His Majesty were captured alive by Da Xia!
What is even more unbelievable and unacceptable is that the queen mother actually ordered the little emperor to abdicate, and announced to the world that the Great Chu will be merged into the Great Xia, and all the soldiers and subjects should surrender to the Great Xia!
In short, Da Chu has been removed from Tiannan in name at this time!
How absurd is this?
They fought life and death here, fought consecutive victories, and laid a huge territory for Da Chu, but in the blink of an eye, Da Chu died inexplicably? !

How can people accept such a cruel reality?

After a long period of silence, a general raised his head, gritted his teeth and looked at Chu Lixuan, the King of Xiu, who sat on the commander's seat with a gloomy face and angry eyes.

"Chu Shuai, what should we do now?"

Chu Lixuan remained motionless and did not make a sound.

The other generals raised their heads one after another and made noises angrily.

"Damn Daxia, you know how to stab a knife in the back! What else do you say? Return to Dachu immediately and call all the troops to destroy Xia's army!"

"That's right! With Chu Shuai's prestige, as long as he returns to the country and climbs up, he will surely gather followers!"

"According to the latest information, after the decree is issued, only [-]% of the army in the country is willing to obey, and another [-]% of the loyal and brave men are swearing to die! The rest are still hesitating, not knowing whether to fight or surrender."

"So, as long as we go back and Chu Shuai speaks out, we will be able to gather the hearts of the army, fight to the death with the Great Xia army, and regain our homeland!"

"But the Queen Mother..."

"The queen mother? The queen mother was captured alive by the Daxia army. It is obviously a helpless move for her majesty to issue an order, and it is definitely not the queen mother's intention!"

"That's right, there's no way to say that there is a coward's 'credit' in it, and these treasonous bastards must be killed!"

"But tonight is the agreed time to break the defense. As long as this battle can be coordinated internally and externally and successfully defeats the last line of defense of David's army, then we will be able to kill David's imperial capital before tomorrow evening and win it in one battle! Now It would be a pity to withdraw the troops, right?"

"Yes, this is our best chance and the only chance! The Great Xia army will arrive here tomorrow. If we miss this opportunity, we will have no hope of taking David's capital!"

"What I'm talking about is that we took nearly [-]% of the territory of the David Dynasty with great difficulty. How many soldiers paid the price with their lives for this? If we withdraw at this time, wouldn't we have to hand everything over to others? How do we face this situation? To the robes under the Nine Springs?"

"But if we delay any longer, the local army will be wiped out by Great Xia, and those hesitant soldiers will be forced to surrender because they see no hope. At that time, I, Da Chu, will really die!"

"That's right, if I die, we are wandering ghosts with no roots! Even if we capture half of David, what can we do?"

For a while, around the topic of whether to fight or withdraw, the generals quarreled fiercely. Both sides held their own opinions, and no one could persuade the other.

There was no other way, the generals could only look at Chu Lixuan in the end, hoping that Chu Lixuan would make up his mind.

"Chu Shuai, what do you think we should do?"

At this time, Chu Lixuan finally raised his head.

After slowly sweeping his cold eyes over everyone, Chu Lixuan paused word by word.

"Continue... to attack!"

attack?
Some of the generals froze for a moment, while others let out a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

"Shuai Chu! You have to think clearly, once we take down the capital of David, Daliang will definitely not let it go! The process will take a lot of time."

"Moreover, this also means that we have to leave a lot of troops to defend the land we gained. At that time, we won't have enough troops to take back to deal with the Great Xia army!"

A general sitting at the front said anxiously.

Chu Lixuan shook his head, and said with stern eyes: "If you want to take back Dachu, you must first eliminate the threat of Daxia's Qiongqi Legion!"

"If not, the Great Xia's two armies will attack from the north and the south. Even if we gather most of the army, our chances of winning are limited."

"Therefore, we must try to join forces with Daliang's army, and first work together to defeat Daxia's Qiongqi army!"

After listening to Chu Lixuan's explanation, the generals suddenly realized, but some people were still puzzled.

"But Shuai Chu, if we take down the capital of David, Liang Jun will definitely be furious, so how can he join forces with us?"

Chu Lixuan snorted coldly, and said indifferently: "Who said that if we take down the capital of David, we must occupy it?"

The generals couldn't help being dumbfounded, and their heads couldn't turn around.

If you don't occupy it, then why bother to attack David's imperial capital?

After two breaths, a veteran's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Chu Shuai means to use the capital of David as a gift and a bargaining chip for negotiations?"

Chu Lixuan glanced at the veteran appreciatively, and nodded slightly.

"That's right! To the Commander-in-Chief of Daliang, taking down the Capital of David is a great achievement, but to us now, it means nothing."

"So, we only need to plunder the valuable materials that are conveniently transported in David's imperial capital. As for the imperial capital itself, we will give it to Daliang as a gift, so as to win an alliance between the two parties and defeat Qiong Qi's army together!"

"In this way, we can solve a big problem, and it will take a very short time. We can quickly return to the country, repel the Bifang army in Daxia, and regain Dachu!"

After hearing Chu Lixuan's real intention, the generals were not only pleasantly surprised, but also full of admiration.

"Shuai Chu's courage is far beyond my reach!"

"Chu Shuai's opinion! The last general agrees!"

"The last general also agrees!"

Soon, all the generals made a statement and unanimously supported Chu Lixuan's decision.

"Okay, let's do it like this! Pass the order down and act according to the original plan!"

Chu Lixuan nodded slowly, and finally made a decision.

"promise!"

……

The capital of David, the royal palace.

Wei Yong is in a good mood these two days, because Daxia's reinforcements will arrive soon, and he believes that David's danger of destroying the country will definitely be solved!

It was very late at this time, Wei Yong planned to go to the harem to rest.

Just thinking of the harem, Wei Yong's originally good mood turned into a lot worse.

Because his two most beloved and most beautiful concubines had been sent to Daxia, they might be having fun under Emperor Xia's crotch at this time, which made him feel green on his head and very tight in his chest.

This incident was the biggest stain and shame in his life, but he couldn't erase it.

When he was secretly feeling depressed, an eunuch hurried in.

"Report to Your Majesty, the Prime Minister and Director Shen of the Night Tour Division are begging to see you."

Wei Yong frowned slightly, and his already bad mood became even worse.

It's probably not a good thing for these two to meet late at night.

After secretly sighing, Wei Yong cleared up his expression and corrected his posture.

"Xuan."

"Yes!"

Not long after, Tan Yuande, David's prime minister, and Shen Ang, the head of the night tour department, walked in quickly.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

"Tell me, what happened?"

Wei Yong waved his hands, a little impatient.

"Your Majesty, Qing'an Mansion's defense line... has been breached..."

Shen Ang gritted his teeth, bit the bullet and said.

"what?!"

Wei Yong suddenly stood up in shock, his eyes widened.

"Didn't it mean that the morale of the frontline soldiers is very high, and the arrangements of all parties are quite strict. At least they can defend for another three days? Why was it breached?!"

Wei Yong turned his head to stare at Tan Yuande, and asked angrily.

Tan Yuande's face was bitter, and he said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, General Chen Tong has rebelled! He led his subordinates to launch a fatal blow to our soldiers from behind, and cooperated with the Chu army inside and out, and that's why..."

"Chen Tong?! Damn it! Damn you bitch!"

Wei Yong was so furious that his body trembled slightly with anger.

Everything was going smoothly at first, he just had to wait for the Daxia reinforcements to arrive.

However, at this time, with the last line of defense being breached, the Chu army could drive straight in and kill directly at the foot of the imperial capital!
Such a situation was something he absolutely did not want to see.

"Your Majesty, on the side of Linqiu Mansion, the Daliang Legion has also launched a fierce attack on the defense line. I am worried that the sudden change in Qing'an Mansion may also appear there..."

Tan Yuande gritted his teeth and continued to speak.

Wei Yong was shocked all over, his face was ashen.

But he didn't know that the bad news had just begun...

"Your Majesty, Ye Yousi has found that the atmosphere in the city seems to be a bit wrong these days, and there are several ministers with extraordinary identities and important positions who have changed frequently. These people are likely to plot evil!"

Shen Ang took a deep breath, and threw another bomb.

As soon as this remark came out, Wei Yong's pupils shrank instantly, and his scalp felt a little numb when he was frightened and angry.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of the mutiny in Yunbo Imperial Capital.

"You mean, someone wants to mutiny? Want to harm me?!"

"Returning to Your Majesty, there are signs of this, but Ye Yousi has not yet obtained conclusive evidence."

Shen Ang replied cautiously.

"waste!"

Wei Yong was furious immediately, and sternly cursed.

"If you can't even find out about this kind of thing, what is the use of you as the director of the night tour department?"

Shen Ang trembled, lowered his head and listened obediently, not daring to interrupt.

Wei Yong didn't speak until he was tired of cursing.

"Your Majesty, although Yeyousi has not been able to find out, the people from Da Xia's net have already found out about it..."

"Big Xia trap?"

Wei Yong was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't doubt it.

Because the espionage capabilities of Daxia's bad guys and Luowang have been tested enough on the battlefield, that kind of outstanding performance is far beyond the comparison of David's Night Tour Division.

"Since you know everything, why don't you go and capture and kill those traitors? What are you waiting for?"

Wei Yong stared dissatisfied.

Shen Ang gave a wry smile, and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, no one in the trap will believe it. They say that the people involved in the mutiny and rebellion are very involved. He must meet His Majesty in person before he will tell."

Wei Yong frowned, and after hesitating for a while, he snorted coldly, "Where's the person?"

"In the vestibule."

Shen Ang hurriedly replied.

"Go, bring people over."

Wei Yong turned his head and gave instructions to a little Huangmen, then he seemed to think of something and added something.

"Remember to be polite."

"Yes!"

Not long after, a middle-aged man in white clothes with a vague aura and an ordinary appearance walked into the hall.

"Captain Daxia Luowang, Gu Ze, pay homage to His Majesty Emperor Wei!"

"You don't have to be polite, Colonel Gu."

Wei Yong had a smile on his face, his expression was gentle, and he even waved his hand to be offered a seat.

Gu Ze hastily declined, then his expression became solemn, and he went straight to the point.

"His Majesty Wei Huang, time is running out, so I'll get straight to the point."

"According to my snares and information from bad people, there are now two forces appearing in Emperor David, intending to mutiny and seize the city. They were all David's subjects, but they have voted for Da Chu and Daliang respectively, with malicious intentions!"

Hearing this, no matter it was Wei Yong, Tan Yuande, or Shen Ang, all of them changed countenance.

There are actually two groups of people who are rebellious and want to plot evil?

"Among them, the traitors who defected to Dachu were headed by Taiwei Lu Chenghe. The core members of this group should be around nine people, but we have only locked four people so far."

"As for the traitors who defected to Daliang, they are led by Lord Protector Zhuang Zhengping. The core members of this group should be between ten and thirteen people, but time is limited, and we only locked in five people."

"Except for the nine people who have been identified, the other members of the two groups of rebels are unknown, so we dare not trust anyone, and we can only ask His Majesty Wei to report in person!"

After listening to Gu Ze's detailed introduction, Wei Yong and the others gasped, their backs shivering in shock.

After a few breaths of silence, Tan Yuande suddenly made a sound.

"Lieutenant Gu, are you sure you didn't make a mistake? Let's not talk about the Taiwei and others, the Lord Protector is David's most loyal subject. Moreover, Zhuang Zhengping will not be so confused that he will be buried for three generations. The reputation of the entire Zhuang family, right?"

Gu Ze glanced at Tan Yuande, and said expressionlessly: "Prime Minister Tan should be aware of the horror of people's hearts. These people have actually done a lot of things secretly to harm David's interests and the situation of the war. Moreover, before they unite, my Daxia But they haven’t agreed to send troops to help. Why can’t they do anything to survive?”

"According to my will to His Majesty, I will not conceal any information about David's interests, nor will any bad people be concealed. Now that the information has been delivered, it is none of our business whether you believe it or not."

Tan Yuande's expression froze, and he hurriedly apologized.

"Lieutenant Gu, the truth is not that I want to question your intelligence capabilities, but the news is so shocking that it made the truth momentarily lost. I hope Captain Gu will be considerate..."

"It's okay."

Gu Ze nodded, his expression was as calm as water.

"Your Majesty Wei Huang, there is one more important point - the time when they started the incident."

Wei Yong was shocked immediately, and without caring about his anger, he hurriedly stared at Gu Ze.

"when?"

"As far as the traitors of Chu are concerned, according to the plan, it will be when the Chu army is approaching the city tomorrow!"

"As for the Liang traitors, their action time is tonight, right now!"

Gu Ze said in a deep voice, his expression calm, but Wei Yong and others' expressions changed drastically...
