Jian Sui Daye

Jiankang, the imperial palace.

"How did this happen, how did they lose like this, Fan Yi and Sima Xiaonan are really idiots, their achievements are more than failures, Wu Mingche's reputation is so great, I didn't expect it to be so vulnerable, it's a waste of fame, I I really regret letting him lead the army, alas,"

Sima Fu clenched his fists tightly, his face was full of anger, and his eyes were full of worry. It was hard to imagine that his 30 troops were easily defeated by Gao Xing. Even Wu Mingche, No. 1 in the military, narrowly saved his life .

Thinking of all the cities in the north of the Yangtze River lost and lost again, Gao Xing's army of 15 was staring at him, gearing up, and might come across the river at any time, but Jiankang City was not only panic-stricken, and there were not many available soldiers, Sima Fu especially hated Gao Xing. But deep down in his heart, there was a haze of fear.

However, after more than a month, Chen Guo lost 40 soldiers and horses, accounting for as much as [-]% of Chen Guo's total army strength. At first glance, Chen Guo still has the strength to fight, but it is not.

Not to mention that the remaining soldiers and horses are scattered all over the place, mobilizing them is not an overnight effort, and their combat effectiveness is much worse than that of the soldiers and horses folded in Gao Xing's hands. If he really wants to use the power of the whole country to fight Gao Xing to the death, the outcome is unpredictable, and it is very likely to cause endless disasters, he dare not take risks.

In addition, there is another news that worries Sima Fu. Three days ago, the emperor of Qi State happily ordered to remove the commander-in-chief of Wang Lin's third group army and appoint him as the commander-in-chief of the Daqi Navy. affairs.

As far as Chen Guo is concerned, there are not many civil and military officials down to traffickers and pawns. Not many people know Wang Lin's name. Wang Lin grew up in the south, and now she is the commander-in-chief of the Qi State Navy. It is self-evident that she is happy.

Sima Fu would not naively think that the Navy and the Navy are two different things, since he received the news, he has had trouble sleeping and eating.

"Fire King, tell us what we should do now. I'm glad you won't really come across the river," Sima Fu said worriedly, looking at the Holy Fire Sect Fire King in front of him.

"Your Majesty, the Lord of Qi is happy and aggressive. It is not impossible to lead troops to the south, but I think this possibility is unlikely." Compared with Sima Fu, the expression of King Huo was much calmer.

"How do you say that?" Sima Fu cheered up, looking at Sima Fu with a burning gaze, with a somewhat anxious expression.

The King of Fire looked at Sima Fu and sighed in his heart. Compared with being happy, Sima Fu was far behind. There was nothing comparable in martial arts, intelligence, and character. Judging from the current situation, Sima Fu wanted to unify the Central Plains and recover The past glory of the Jin Dynasty was extremely difficult, and it was not bad to be able to settle down and keep this hard-won foundation.

It is really his misfortune, and also the misfortune of the Sima family, to be born in the same era as Gao Xing.

Putting aside the thoughts in his heart, the King of Fire said: "Your Majesty, although the Qi army has won a series of victories, and the momentum is like a rainbow, but the so-called killing one thousand enemies means self-defeating eight hundred, we have suffered heavy losses, and the Qi people are not without damage.

If Xing Xing wants to cross the river, he will definitely annex our country completely, otherwise he will only occupy a city and half a pool, and he will not be able to stay for a long time despite the natural dangers of the Yangtze River. Jiang Zhengzhan may not be able to catch up.

Qi’s formation of a navy is to prepare for crossing the river for World War II in the future, and to deter us. Happy is definitely not an arrogant and arrogant person. If the navy is not successful, he will not cross the river easily, but we have to guard against it.”

Sima Fu's face calmed down a little, and he frowned and asked, "Does the Lord of Fire mean that we deploy defenses on the Yangtze River to prevent surprise attacks?"

"No," Fire King shook his head, and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, for the present plan, we'd better admit defeat to Gao Xing,"

"What?" Sima Fu suddenly stood up, looked at the Fire King in shock, and said loudly, "Fire King, what are you talking about? How could we surrender so easily? This will only fuel the enemy's arrogance and disturb the morale of the army. When the time comes, the country will collapse. How can we talk about unifying the Central Plains? Could it be that you are old and are greedy for life and afraid of death, afraid that a mere yellow-mouthed child will fail." After speaking, Sima Fu's tone was already very severe and full of anger.

How could Sima Fu, a noble man, surrender without a fight? Even if the city was built and his head fell to the ground, he would not surrender.

Fire King looked very calm, neither guilty nor ashamed, nor angry because of Sima Fu's scolding, he just looked at Sima Fu calmly, and said indifferently: "Your Majesty, what I said about admitting defeat is just a temporary plan, not a Surrender glad,'

Sima Fu snorted coldly, looked at Huo Wang sternly and said, "Say,"

"Your Majesty, those who achieve great things don't care about small details. As far as the country is concerned, personal gains and losses are nothing. In the past, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was trapped in Baishan Mountain for seven days and seven nights for the Huns. He almost died. Later, he made peace with the Huns. The time for the development of the Han Dynasty.

Today the enemy is strong and we are weak, the emperor might as well show the enemy weakness, rest and rest, and wait for our country to be strong and strong in the future, so why not avenge today's revenge?

Sima Fu's expression kept changing, his brows frowned and relaxed, relaxed and wrinkled again, and he regained his composure after repeating for a long time. His voice was a little hoarse and difficult: "Fire King, don't we have any other choice besides this method?"

"Have,"

Sima Fu was overjoyed, and before he had time to speak, Fire King's words poured on his heart like a basin of cold water.

"Other methods have less than a [-]% chance of winning, and the chance of failure may be the collapse of Chen Guo,"

Glancing at Sima Fu, whose expression was uncertain, Fire King said again: "If the emperor can persuade the Lord of Zhou to send troops, unite with the Turks, and mobilize the power of the whole country to attack Qi, we naturally don't have to be afraid and happy, but the Qi army is all elite, and the weapons are even more powerful. Extremely sharp, we have no way to deal with it,"

Sitting down heavily, Sima Fu's face was full of bitterness, how difficult it is to unite Zhou State and Turks, not to mention that the three parties suffered heavy losses, and whether they still have the strength to attack Qi.

Fire King said again: "Your Majesty, there are still [-] elite soldiers and good generals in Nanqiao Prefecture, which are hard to buy. If we succeed in negotiating with Qi State, firstly, they can return safely, and secondly, Qi State will have no excuse to go south."

The war requires a division to be famous. Chen Guo takes the lead in provoking, and the wrongdoing comes first. Qi naturally has the name of sending troops. If the two sides negotiate a truce and sign a contract, if Qi invites troops to attack, Chen Guo will stand on the side of justice. , It is good for the morale of the people, and once the contract is signed, Qi State cannot send troops at will, and Chen State can develop with peace of mind.

After being silent for a full quarter of an hour, Sima Fu spoke again, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said in a low and depressed voice, "Fire King, it's up to you, but the [-] troops in Nanqiao Prefecture must be returned to me if they are happy, otherwise even if they fail, I will fight him to the death, too."

Chen Guo's surrender was within Gao Xing's expectation. It's not that Gao Xing has the ability to conquer Chen Guo in one fell swoop. It's just that the timing is not right now. The cost of doing so is too high and the hidden dangers are not small. Otherwise, Xing Xing will continue to trap Nanqiao Prefecture Waiting for the envoy of Chen Guo.

The general situation is over, Wu Mingche can only open the city and surrender. Fortunately, he is not a narrow-minded person. The Qi army has strict military discipline, and he has not suffered any humiliation. He just looks at Wang Lin's high-spirited appearance, and his mood is extremely complicated.

Gao Xing didn't meet Chen Guo's envoys, left conditions, and after telling Wang Lin to be in charge of the negotiations, he quietly left the barracks and rushed to Jinzhou.

Sima Fu had trouble sleeping and eating, and Yu Wenyun also felt sorry for each other. Compared with Chen Guo's disastrous defeat, Zhou Guo's situation seemed to be more serious.

Since Yu Wenyong's expedition to the east, the state of Zhou has lost nearly 60 soldiers and horses, and those famous generals have also fallen one by one. Looking around, there are not many civil and military men in the Manchu Dynasty who can stand on their own.

It's not that Yu Wenyun didn't think about the consequences of failure before defeating Qi, but he didn't expect that with the power of the Three Kingdoms, they would still be defeated so thoroughly and so quickly. Happiness is obviously not a person who is easy to be with, otherwise how would he treat Chen Guo? Aggressive and aggressive, and Zhou Guo and Qi Guo are feuds, so how can they let go of this great opportunity if they are happy.

Not only that, news also came from the west that Tuyuhun and Dang Xiang, who had been defeated by the state of Zhou, were also ready to move, and had the intention of leading an army to the east. Even the small state of Liang began to act against others. Yu Wenyun even suspected that they had colluded with the state of Qi At present, the state of Zhou can be described as precarious, and the slightest carelessness will endanger the country.

"Zheng Aiqing, what is the state of Qi doing now?" Frowning, Yu Wenyun looked at Zheng Yi and said.

"Returning to the emperor, I am happy to defeat General Chen Wu Mingche and did not do anything else. I just appointed Wang Lin as the commander-in-chief of the navy and prepared to build a navy. It seems that I am going to cross the river to attack the country of Chen." However, if Zhou Guo is overwhelmed by happiness, he will not benefit much.

Yu Wenyun was visibly relieved, took a sip of tea, and said, "Mr. Tang Guo has arrived in Shizhou (now Jiange, Sichuan), and the Dangxiang people and Tuyuhun may have changed."

"Tang Guogong has already arrived in Shizhou, and he is practicing soldiers and horses day and night. The party members should be afraid of the emperor's reputation and dare not act rashly for the time being."

"That's good," Yu Wenyun rubbed his brows, paused, and was about to speak when a report from the guards came from outside the hall.

"Eight hundred miles to hurry, Yubi battle report,"

Both Yu Wenyun and Zheng Yi were shocked, and the former stood up abruptly, knocking over the teacup on the table without knowing it.

"Come in quickly, what's going on in Yubi City?"

"Reporting to the emperor, two days ago, Lord Qi happily led an army of 15 across the border and arrived at the city of Yubi in Xunzhou, our country,"

Regardless of presumptuousness, Zheng Yi asked, "Did the people of Qi ever attack a city?"

"No, but the Qi people are coming in menacingly, and all the siege equipment is available,"

Yu Wenyun's heart tightened, his face turned ashen, and he murmured: "The one who should come has finally come, what should I do, what should I do,"

Yu Wenyun was flustered, Zheng Yi was not much better, Gao Xing's reputation was too scary, Zhou Guo fought with him for three years, but he never won a single victory, one can imagine the pressure that Xing Xing brought to them.

Soon, Zheng Yi calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. Back then, Gao Huan was mighty and invincible, and he was still drinking hatred under Yubi City. Now General Yang Jian leads an army of 20 in Yubi City. I am happy to want to Breaking down a city is no easy task,"

Yu Wenyun took a deep breath, sat down again, and said solemnly: "Summon civil and military officials to discuss this matter at court,"
