Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 840 Attacking Chu State
When Su Qingyan said so, Nanny Jin nodded. It is true that the master's current body should be taken care of again. After all, twins are born, and the foundation is still damaged.

In the evening, Emperor Jing returned to Guanju Palace. He sat on Su Qingyan's hand and held her hand, "Ah Qing, I'm afraid the matter of becoming a queen will be postponed for now."

The most important thing now is to deal with the state of Chu. Under such circumstances, it would be inappropriate to raise him again.

"Don't worry, your majesty, don't you know about concubines? It doesn't matter whether you can be a queen or not. As long as you and your children are doing well, the concubine will be content."

Responding with a smile, Su Qingyan looked at Emperor Jing with tenderness in her eyes, "Your Majesty, I heard that if you want to attack Chu, do you have a good chance of winning?"

The state of Chu is not Xidi, and it is not so easy to conquer it. If there is a real fight, it may not be conquered for three or two years.

"Chu is also considered a powerful country. Although its vitality was seriously injured before, the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. It may not be easy to defeat it."

Hearing Su Qingyan's question, Emperor Jing sighed. Although he knew this, he still wanted to take the risk.

"However, there is only this opportunity. If you miss it, it will be difficult to find another opportunity in the future. Therefore, I must seize the opportunity."

Right now, Chu State is at its weakest. After all, they sent 10,000+ soldiers, and they suffered such a big loss before. Now, the interior of Chu State is empty.

According to reports from eyeliners, the state of Chu is now fighting internally. The emperor is old. The second prince who was likely to inherit the throne before was headed by the leader of the Southwest tribe. Now the remaining princes, no one can compare to the dead second prince. .

Under such circumstances, the emperor of Chu Kingdom would inevitably be entangled, not knowing how to choose, but his entanglement gave all the older princes hope.

No one would not be attracted to the throne, so they planned and plotted to get that position.

The national power is weak, and the princes are fighting among themselves. This is really the best opportunity. If you can't grasp it, once the internal fighting is over and the national power is adjusted, it will not be as easy as it is now.

After hearing what Emperor Jing finished speaking, Su Qingyan nodded. After all, it was her brother who led the army. She would inevitably be worried. Swords and swords have no eyes on the battlefield. In case of injury...

Thinking of this, Su Qingyan took a deep breath, trying to clear her mind and not think about those things.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine. I have made arrangements for everything. Even if you really can't fight, you can guarantee that your brother will escape." Putting aside his personal feelings, Emperor Jing didn't want Su Qinghan to have an accident, after all , he is a rare handsome talent.

When Emperor Jing said this, Su Qingyan responded. In order to make Su Qingyan feel more relaxed, Emperor Jing changed the topic and talked about something else.

…………

The military situation was urgent, and if the opportunity was missed, it would be extremely difficult to find another opportunity, so soon, Su Qinghan, Shen Hao, and Ji Li packed up and left the capital.

Shen Hao and Ji Li are the easiest ones. They don't lead many people. Su Qingyan is leading the army to fight. In addition to leading troops out of the capital, every time they pass by states and counties, they will take some soldiers with them. By the time he reached the southwest border, he had gathered nearly a million troops.

Without wasting any time, Su Qinghan led the soldiers and headed straight for Chu State.

During this period of time, Su Qinghan did not forget to collect information. Knowing that Chu State is indeed empty and fighting against each other, he felt relieved to lead the troops there.

The reason why we need to collect information is to be careful of the mutiny hidden in the Chu State. After all, this is an army of millions. Su Qinghan doesn't want so many people's lives to be taken because of false information.

On Xidi's side, the battle was fierce, and with the support of the soldiers sent by Emperor Jing, it was able to fight on a par with Chu.

Although they were unable to repel the soldiers of Chu State, the generals of Chu State were also unable to break through Xidi, and the two sides became stalemate, neither would give way to the other.

This situation continued until the generals of Chu State received the secret report, and the pressure on Xi Di was relieved.

The war is in full swing, and the atmosphere in the court is very dignified. No one talks about standing up or drafting. Everyone is looking forward to the letters sent back from abroad every day.

It took several months for Su Qinghan to finally send back the letter. After all, there is a certain distance between Xing'an and Chu, and with Su Qinghan leading so many generals, it is impossible to get there in a day or two. It is impossible.

Even if it is achieved, it will take a certain amount of time to send the letter back, Emperor Jing is clear about this.

Although the national strength of the Chu State was empty, and the court was fighting internally, the battle was still very difficult. The soldiers at the Chu State's border gates were still good, so that Su Qinghan had fought hard for a long time and had not yet captured the border gates.

However, the attack is almost over. After a stalemate for so long, the food and grass in the border pass have already been eaten up. Without reinforcements, the soldiers inside can't save themselves. Sooner or later, the border pass will be unable to defend and be broken by Xing'an.

"Generalissimo, this battle is finally coming to an end." Standing beside Su Qinghan, the deputy general said with some emotion.

Originally, the border of Chu State was supported by soldiers, who were sent back from Xidi.

However, before those soldiers could rush back, they were intercepted by Ji Li's troops near the southwest border of Xing'an, and they were all wiped out in the end.

Because the news was intercepted, the king of the Chu Kingdom didn't know about it yet, and even if he knew, it would be useless. By the time he sent troops to arrive, the border would already belong to Xing'an.

The infighting between the court and the central government was fierce, and the people of Chu State believed that their borders could not be breached, so it became the situation today. It can only be said that the heavens really helped Xing'an.

"This battle is over, and there is another one to come. It won't be easy. I reckon that we will have a long time in Chu."

It's just that it took so long at the border of Chu State, and it has been almost half a year since he left Xing'an.

The state of Chu is not small, and it will take a long time to reach the capital of the state of Chu.

Fortunately, soldiers will continue to support them with food and grass, and the areas that have been captured will also provide them with supplies, so don't worry about the problem of food and grass.

When Su Qinghan said so, the lieutenant nodded. Indeed, after crossing the border, there is another town. It may take a year and a half to reach the capital. This is assuming everything is going well.

"General, you said that if we attack Chu, will the Qing Congress send troops to help?"

Among several countries, Chu State had the best relationship with Qing State. Before Chu State attacked the southwest border, it was Qing State's cover.

"No, with Marshal Shen around, it is impossible for Qing to help Chu."

Even if he wanted to help, Shen Hao would not let them cross the northwest border, so there was no need to worry at all.

As for other countries, at this time, it is too late for them to protect themselves, how can it be possible to meddle in other people's affairs?
