Chapter 191 Two countries attack, making matters worse

Sanyang County, Lu Mansion.

Yu Linglong handed the information in her hand to Lu Xuan.

"A large number of soldiers and horses from Kang State are gathering at the border gate?" Lu Xuan looked at the content of the intelligence and looked at Yu Linglong: "Intelligence from Tiandu?"

Yu Linglong shook her head and said: "They are from Kang State, and they are massing troops and horses towards the border. Not only are they covering Yunzhou, there are also soldiers and horses gathering in Yanzhou, and they seem to want to invade on a large scale."

After Lu Xuan looked at her for a while, he nodded and said, "Good job, let's explore again."

"Yes, I'm resigning!" Yu Linglong nodded silently, turned and left.

"Leader, this woman's identity..." Li Xingzhi looked at Yu Linglong's back and frowned.

"Everyone has their own secrets, as long as they can be used by me." Lu Xuan shook his head and stopped Li Xingzhi from continuing. It is certain that Yu Linglong has something to hide from herself, but this is not important. What is important is that she can For my use.

"The Kang Dynasty's large-scale attack will be worse for Daqian. Moreover, Yunzhou is close to Dakang. Once Dakang invades, our religion will be the first to bear the brunt." Li Xingzhi said in a deep voice. They had previously predicted that the Taoist alliance might promote the national war. , now it has come true.

"Pass my order and send a letter to all parties to fight against the traitors. During the invasion of Dakang, no one is allowed to hinder the imperial army to resist Dakang. Anyone who dares to raid the grain road will be killed; anyone who intercepts the imperial messenger will be killed!" Lu Xuan looked at Li Xingzhi road.

When Dakang comes in, everyone will stop playing.

"Yes!" Li Xingzhi nodded and bowed to leave.

With a thought in Lu Xuan's mind, the Son of Blood God, who had already arrived in Huangzhou, turned around and ran towards Tiandu.

……

Tiandu, Imperial Palace, Chaotian Palace.

"Your Majesty, this time Kang State, Buddha State and Southern Xinjiang invaded our Daqian State at the same time. I think we should send troops to reinforce the border as soon as possible." Jiang Song came out and saluted Ji Huan.

Ji Huan looked at the memorial with a sinking face.

Not only did Dakang come to attack, but Buddhism and even southern Xinjiang also attacked at the same time. If there was no secret force from the Taoist Alliance and Buddhism behind this, he would not believe it.

"Your Majesty!" Cui Jinyuan came out and saluted Ji Huan: "Our court has just experienced the Guiyi Rebellion. The treasury is empty and the people are exhausted. It will be useless for the country to use a large number of troops at this moment. I think we can send envoys first. He sent envoys to Dakang and Buddha to see if the war could be eliminated. As for the southern border, the barbarians were greedy for money. If the two countries did not agree to reconcile, they could be ordered to retreat with grain, grass, gold and silver. If the two countries retreated, they could take the opportunity to gather heavy troops to attack the southern barbarians. So that they don’t dare to look north.”

Southern Xinjiang is an area east of the Hengduan Mountains and north of the South China Sea. Although it calls itself the Southern Kingdom, no one recognizes it. It is located in Jinzhou and Liuzhou. It is mountainous, forested, and full of miasma. It is known as the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

As for the Hengduan Mountains, they are the national border in the west of Daqian. They extend from south to north to Mount Xumi in the Buddhist Kingdom. They are within the Hengduan Mountains. They are also a natural barrier in the west of Daqian. They are separated from the Wu Dynasty in the west, although there is a sea route. , but the sea is the world of monsters. Therefore, although the Wu Dynasty and the former Dynasty are adjacent to each other on the map, they are the most harmonious two countries. There has been no dispute since the founding of the country.

"Pass my decree and order the border generals from all over the country to prepare for war. On the southern side of Xinjiang, send envoys to bring some gold, silver, grain and grass to see if they can appease them." Ji Huan looked at the ministers and interrupted everyone's argument. He knew very well. This matter was caused by the Taoist Alliance. It is almost impossible to resolve it peacefully. On the contrary, it is the southern Xinjiang side. Due to the unpromising nature of the southern Xinjiang people, they only come out to fight to plunder some property. As long as they are allowed to The advantage is that this is the easiest to solve.

"Your Majesty, with the strength of my country, it is difficult to compete with the two countries!" Cui Jinyuan's expression changed and he said quickly.

"I didn't say we wanted to fight the two countries. This time, we only need to target the Buddhist Kingdom! Kang Kingdom, I have my own way to make it retreat." Ji Huan sneered.

"I wonder what your majesty has done?" The ministers were a little surprised when they heard this. For Dagan, Kang State was naturally the biggest threat and the most reason to attack Dagan. But they didn't know what Ji Huan had in mind to make Kang Guo Give up the attack?

"This matter involves the secrets of the royal families of various countries, but someone needs to go to Kang State on my behalf. I wonder who among you is willing to go to Daqian?" Ji Huan glanced at the ministers.

"Your Majesty, I would like to go and share your worries for Your Majesty!" Taifu Zhang Shen came out of the queue and bowed to Ji Huan.

"Teacher, I'm old. I'm going to Dakang for more than a thousand miles. It's not good to be tired of traveling and traveling." Ji Huan shook his head, looked at the ministers and said: "This mission to Dakang is related to the national destiny of the two countries. I don't know who Aiqing, are you willing to go on my behalf?"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to go!" Zhao Guang, a servant of the Ministry of Rites, took a step forward and bowed.

"Okay!" Ji Huan nodded and said: "I will write a secret letter. You can take this letter to Emperor Dakang. This mission to Daqian is of great importance. To avoid any unexpected events, I will send three more five-year-olds to you. General Pin will accompany you as escort."

"Your Majesty, it doesn't need to be like this, right?" The ministers were a little stunned when they heard this.

Fifth-grade warriors are a scarce resource in Daqian. Basically, they are all third-grade generals. This year, the imperial court just lost three fifth-grade warriors in Dongzhou. Looking at the imperial court now, there are not many. This would only be if the Minister of Rites is on an envoy. , the servant of the Ministry of Rites could not shoot the fifth-rank officer, so he sent three third-rank generals to escort him. This is a bit too much.

"This matter is related to the destiny of the country, and there is no room for failure." Ji Huan sighed and said: "It must be absolutely foolproof, or which beloved minister is willing to serve as the envoy of the Ministry of Rites?"

The ministers were silent after hearing this. Not to mention the current chaos, just because the two countries of Kangxi and Qianlong are at war, they may be taken hostage in any minute. Which of these second- and third-grade officials is willing to take this risk?

"Murong loves you!" Seeing that the ministers were speechless, Ji Huan stopped talking and looked at Murong Cheng, the Minister of Rites. "I'm here!" Murong Cheng took a step forward and bowed.

"You are responsible for the affairs of Southern Xinjiang. Give them some food, grass, gold and silver, and tell them to stop making trouble!" Ji Huan was speechless about the troubles in Southern Xinjiang at this time. Kang and Buddha have sects behind them. Why are you here in Southern Xinjiang making trouble at this time?

"I obey your order!" Murong Cheng bowed and said.

Seeing that no one among the ministers was speaking, Ji Huan turned to look at Liu Chunhua beside him.

"Retreat from the court~" Liu Chunhua's high-pitched voice echoed in the hall.

"Farewell Your Majesty!" The ministers bowed down quickly and bowed to see Ji Huan off before retreating in twos and threes.

"Jingzhong!" Returning to the Yangxin Hall, Ji Huan looked at Cao Jingzhong.

"My servant is here!" Cao Jingzhong stepped forward and saluted.

"I want you to go to the Kang Dynasty for me." Ji Huan looked at Cao Jingzhong, handed a secret letter to Cao Jingzhong and said: "Give this letter to Luo Shouxing personally!"

Luo Shouxing was the name of the current emperor of the Kang Dynasty. Before the two became emperors, Luo Shouxing had been to Daqian and had some friendship with Ji Huan.

"Your Majesty, why is this so?" Cao Jingzhong bowed to take the superstition and looked at Ji Huan strangely.

"I'm worried that the mission won't be able to see Luo Shouxing." Ji Huan sighed.

The Dao League must be worried that the secret of Shanheyin will be leaked, and the mission may not be able to reach Dakang safely.

If you want to eliminate this military disaster, Dakang is very important, and now Ji Huan has nothing to do with the Taoist alliance. Although he is reluctant to disclose this secret, he can't fight against the Taoist alliance on his own, so he can only put this matter aside. Only by going public and all countries uniting to deal with the Tao Alliance can there be a chance of survival.

He has no hope for the Buddhist Kingdom. The Buddhist Kingdom is different from Dakang and Daqian. Although Dakang and Daqian, the Dao League has Qintian Prison, they basically do not interfere with the government affairs. The emperors of the two countries have absolute control over the world. .

The Buddhist Kingdom is different. The Buddhist Kingdom is not a country, but a collective name for more than a dozen small countries. Although there are many countries, Buddhism is worshiped in the Buddhist Kingdom. Buddhism has supreme power there, and can even appoint and remove the emperor.

Therefore, even if the kings of the Buddhist countries knew the secret of the mountain and river seals, they would not be able to do anything.

Three hundred years ago, Buddhism also wanted to do this in Daqian and Dakang, but was expelled by the Confucian and Taoist League at that time.

Now he can only hope that Luo Shouxing will follow him and have hopes for immortality.

Temptation is inevitable. No emperor can resist the temptation of immortality. It depends on whether Lao Luo has the courage to fight with these sanctimonious sects with him.

Cao Jingzhong was shocked when he heard this. He silently put away the secret letter and saluted Ji Huan: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will risk my life to send this letter to Kangdu."

"There is a Dao Alliance spy in Tiandu City." Ji Huan shook his head and said, "You need to leave silently. I have arranged a substitute for you. During this period of your absence, he will stand by your side. Position, and tomorrow you pretend to be an ordinary eunuch and go out of the palace to receive the property. I have also arranged a replacement there, and you can replace him when the time comes."

Ji Huan looked at Cao Jingzhong and said: "In the capital of heaven, spiritual consciousness is limited. If they want to monitor the palace, there must be someone in the palace. I don't know who it is, but you need to be careful. Don't contact them after leaving the palace." Any acquaintance, remember, anyone!”

"In this case, if my adopted sons come to see me..." Cao Jingzhong hesitated after hearing this. In this case, how to deal with the substitutes left here?

Ji Huan clapped his hands, and a eunuch walked out of the Yangxin Hall. His expression and appearance were exactly the same as Cao Jingzhong.

"This..." Cao Jingzhong looked at this person in shock.

"Except for his cultivation, he is the same as you. Next, you will tell him what you need to pay attention to." Ji Huan said in a deep voice.

"Yes, I obey my orders!" Cao Jingzhong bowed his head and said.

"I will send a few more confidants out of the palace from all directions to help you divert your attention, but Kangdu is the key." Ji Huan looked at Cao Jingzhong and said: "They can't let you enter Kangdu easily. But I can’t help you, you need to solve it yourself.”

"Your Majesty, don't worry." Cao Jingzhong knelt down silently in front of Ji Huan and kowtowed solemnly: "Your Majesty, this slave...if I can't come back, I hope your Majesty will take care of my adopted sons."

"I need you!" Ji Huan looked down at Cao Jingzhong and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about your adopted sons, but you... come back alive to me!"

"Slave... I obey the order!" Cao Jingzhong kowtowed again, then stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this slave is leaving."

"Ah."
