A Poisonous Woman from a Good Story

Chapter 215 Proposed Flooding

The sixth prince nodded in agreement, and said: "You have to take good care of yourself. Mr. Xin will stay in the mansion. There are military doctors there. Besides, I won't go to the front to fight and kill easily."

The husband and wife had a good discussion and told each other that they couldn't leave each other. At this time, Mrs. Zhu came to visit. Seeing the two of them like this, she smiled at the sixth prince and said, "Your Highness, just feel free to go. I'm here for everything. I'll be fine." Take good care of her."

The sixth prince smiled and entrusted Shen Qiujun to Mrs. Zhu. After thanking him, he went to the front yard.

Mrs. Zhu took Shen Qiujun's hand and comforted: "As soon as I heard that His Highness is going to fight together, I have been thinking about you in my heart. You are still young, so be careful in everything. Your Highness has all the soldiers there, and you don't have to Too worried."

Shen Qiujun said with a smile: "With Lord Zhu here, I have nothing to worry about, but before I wanted to follow my wife's example to go into battle to kill the enemy, but at this time I am inconvenient. I heard that Siyuan is also under the command of the Lord. , inevitably envious and a little discouraged."

Mrs. Zhu sighed: "It's not easy to be a heroine. It's our women's turn to fight. The battle has reached an extremely tragic state. I would rather just sit in the mansion with peace of mind. This girl Siyuan is also affected by those heroines. Influenced by the rumors, I want to follow, if she is not allowed and I am afraid that she will act rashly, it is better to put it in front of her father and watch, I am more at ease."

Shen Qiujun hurriedly said: "Miss Siyuan knows the general situation, and her kung fu is good. She will become a female general in the future."

Mrs. Zhu said with a smile: "Who is a general or not? As long as she lives a safe life, I will be content."

Then the two brought up the matter of Shen Qiujun's pregnancy, Madam Zhu mentioned some things that need to be paid attention to, and promised to help find some good stable wives, Shen Qiujun naturally thanked her.

The battle between Qi and Chen kicked off. After a few days, each had their winners and losers, but they were evenly matched. The sixth prince even took time to go back to his residence once, but with the arrival of Dong Chen's backup.But Daqi was in a hurry because the reinforcements could not be gathered for a while, so he was a little struggling.

Shen Qiujun knew that he could not be of much help here, even though he listened to people talking about the battle situation every day, because he never mentioned Yudai Mountain, he threw them away.Only care for the baby.

Half a month later, what Shen Qiujun was worried about finally came. Daqi's troops retreated steadily, and now they have retreated to Yudai Mountain, relying on this natural moat to fight against Dongchen.

And Dongchen is for the future battle situation.It is also inevitable to win Yudai Mountain, and it is aggressive.There is a posture of winning Yudai Mountain at all costs.

Only then did Zongbing Zhu really get scared.He thought that the imperial court had completely subdued several forces around Dongchen. If the two countries went to war, they would help delay Dongchen. Now he saw that King Chen had almost concentrated his troops here, but his reinforcements were due to various reasons. The obstruction could not come in time, and only then did he realize that what Chen Wang had done was far more profound than he thought.

It seems that declaring war on the issue of the sixth prince this time is probably not just a temporary act of revenge for Chen Anzheng.It must have been planned long ago, and General Zheng couldn't arrive on time.I'm afraid it was also written by Chen Wang.

Zongbing Zhu has already received the court bulletin. General Zheng should have brought people here a long time ago, but he didn't want to have to postpone the trip temporarily because of the chaos caused by the war just now. .

Now it seems that all of this was planned in advance by King Chen, so he mustered up all his energy to capture Yudai Mountain first. As long as he captures Yudai Mountain, if there is a war or peace, Dong Chen will have an advantage.

Zhu Zongbing has been here for many years and knows that as long as Yudai Mountain is lost, his death will not be enough to atone for his crimes.Because in this way, even if Dong Chen moved away the barrier in front of Daqi, it would be extremely easy to invade Daqi. Even if General Zheng came here, even if he had the art of returning to heaven, the price would be extremely high.

Zhu Zongbing saw the growing disparity between the two sides' forces, and knew that he could not come up with a good strategy. Even if he tried to keep Yudai Mountain temporarily, his own casualties would be huge. By then, Dongchen would attack a few more times, and Yudai Mountain would be destroyed sooner or later. It still has to fall into Dong Chen's hands.

Zongbing Zhu's position as a military adviser is also hanging on his mind day and night, and he can't help but secretly complain that the sixth prince is acting impulsively. The commander-in-chief has not yet arrived. This put Daqi in a passive position of being beaten.

At this time, a counselor offered advice: "The soldiers came to block, and the water came to flood the soil. Fortunately, the commander-in-chief ordered someone to build a dam on the Yudai River in advance. Now the water situation is just right. Why not use the method of flooding? As long as it can be resisted for a month or two, it will be saved." Yudai Mountain, General Zheng is here, everything has nothing to do with your lord."

Zhu Zongbing's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he secretly blamed him. A few days ago, the people below came to report that the dam had been repaired, so why didn't he think of it.

Zongbing Zhu heaved a sigh of relief, squinted his eyes and went through the plan in his mind, and couldn't help but secretly complained: "Although this is the best way, but there are great inadequacies in it, if it is really implemented, Although Yudai Mountain was kept, it made me ashamed to face my fathers and fellow villagers here, and I couldn't explain to the emperor."

Others said: "Although your lord is the head of all the generals, the sixth prince is above you. If you have any merits in the future, it will naturally be the sixth prince's. If there are any mistakes, it's okay for him to bear them."

Zhu Zongbing still couldn't let go, and said: "Even if he bears the blame, it's the tens of thousands of people here who suffer. How can we be worthy of them."

The military adviser persuaded: "This is really a last resort. If King Chen occupies Yudai Mountain and loses the city, even if your lord makes atonement with death, it will not change the fate of the people in the east being poisoned by King Chen. The sixth prince is here. , It's just for his own little benefit, how can he be compared with the people of Daqi Jiangshan, a prince, even if he bears some guilt, he can't lose his life, at most he will lose his sacred heart, but adults can keep it. Lives continue to fight for Daqi. Besides, the things you worry about may not really happen."

Zhu Zongbing was still hesitating, and everyone said: "Now the situation is imminent, there is no more hesitation. Please make up your mind early. You don't need to worry about this matter. I will let the sixth prince issue the order."

The Sixth Prince has known the importance of Yudai Mountain for a long time, and now that Daqi is about to be unable to sustain himself, he is unavoidably anxious. Of course, he is even more worried that once Yudai Mountain is lost, Daqi’s future land boundary will be like a flat river, and there will be no more land. In order to block, Daqi's military strength is already inferior to that of Dongchen. At that time, Prince Chen and his son will definitely arrest him before the reinforcements arrive.

The events of that year flashed before his eyes again. He would rather die than allow himself to become a prisoner of King Chen and his son again. Besides, there is Shen Qiujun beside him. On a good day, let her accompany him to be ridiculed and humiliated before losing his life?

He would never allow that to happen, no matter what price he had to pay, he would never let his husband and wife fall into that situation.

At this juncture, the Sixth Prince heard the rumors of Shui Yandong Chen, and later in a meeting of the generals, someone finally made this proposal formally.

Naturally, some people immediately jumped out to oppose it, discussing the disadvantages of this method.

The sixth prince observed calmly, and gradually the initial joy faded away, and a cold feeling appeared in his heart: So he was singing in front of himself, playing himself like a fool.

The sixth prince said to Zong Bing Zhu: "I'm new here, and I don't understand some things. I don't know what your lord thinks about it. My lord is here to respect you. Please give me your orders. I will naturally follow my orders."

Zongbing Zhu said with a wry smile: "Ordering the flooding of Eastern Chen can certainly defeat the King of Chen, but the people of Daqi may not be immune to disaster. This makes me feel worthy of the emperor and the people. But if I don't act like that, the reinforcements will be delayed." No, King Chen's attack is too fierce, even if we all stick here, I'm afraid we won't be able to last for five days. After five days, if the reinforcements don't arrive, we will all die here, and the people behind us will be like lambs. King Chen is slaughtered. The lower officials really can't make up their minds."

Zhu Siyuan saw a group of soldiers who were afraid of tigers and wolves, he couldn't help shouting: "Since you come to serve as a soldier to protect your family and the country, you should be prepared to die in battle. Even if you die here today, you are worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth. I am worthy of the emperor and the people. If you are afraid of death and ignore the safety of the people, you must know that fire and water are ruthless. Once the people of Daqi are flooded, they will not die under the sword of King Chen, but will die in our flood. How can you say that you are a soldier of Daqi. Then you will come from other soldiers of Daqi to recover the lost land, avenge us, and rescue the people of Daqi on our behalf."

When Zhu Siyuan followed her father's tent that day, she promised her father to listen more, watch more and talk less, so everyone didn't care, but now what she said made everyone fall silent.

In fact, they have been fighting for many years, and they have seen a lot of life and death, so they are not afraid of death. It's just that they have experienced more things, and their hearts are no longer pure, and they know how to weigh the pros and cons.

They don't need to use the method of flooding. Everyone died in battle here. Dong Chen would feel like entering a land without people if he captured Yudai Mountain. Daqi might not be easy to regain it.

On the contrary, if it is flooded, even if some of the people of Daqi are flooded, Dongchen will suffer even greater losses, and it will be much easier for Daqi to deal with the severely injured King Chen. And finally, with the current manpower and reinforcements from all walks of life, Dong Chen would not dare to take a step into Daqi.

Of course, before that, Zhu Zongbing couldn't bear the crime of flooding, because he still had to command the battle, and the best scapegoat here was the sixth prince.

Unexpectedly, the sixth prince was not fooled, Zhu Siyuan said those words again, they felt a sense of pride in their hearts, it is also a happy thing for a man to die in battle, why bother to look forward and backward, and finally feel ashamed of the folks behind him.
