The ghost king and princess of Feng Qingtian

Chapter 148
The battle situation between the Moyun Kingdom and the Yuxue Kingdom has attracted the attention of all parties in the world, so every move is spread to everywhere at the fastest speed.And so far, the results of every battle have left the world with an incredible feeling.

Many generals have been talking about the ghost king's tactics recently. In fact, from the perspective of outsiders, they don't seem to be very clever. It is often said that ordinary people don't find it strange, but how can Yuxue, who is the number one military power, lose consecutive defeats under such a scheme?
Mo Lingyu summoned his generals to discuss matters in the study, and there was a battle report by his hand, which was the latest battle report between Laocheng and Huacheng.

A red-faced general said: "This ghost king is really evil. Yuxue's army of 50 troops has turned 40 troops into it. This Yuxue doesn't know what she is thinking. Neither the Jiang family nor the Cao family are vegetarians, so I don't believe it. The 10 troops of the two of them swarmed up, and they still couldn't destroy the [-] people."

Mo Lingyu sighed: "You understand this truth, and many people understand it, but Lord Yuxue doesn't understand. Why did the ghost king put Jiang Ruizhen back intact? Monarch Yuxue will not let the Jiang family take action unless it is absolutely necessary."

Everyone nodded. In fact, what they are most afraid of when they are courtiers is the suspicion of the king. No matter how loyal and powerful you are, if the king abandons you, what can you do?

Mo Lingyu continued: "The King of Ghosts has been playing a big game of chess from the very beginning, and she also used a trick: arrogant soldiers will definitely lose. No matter how weak Mo Yun is, she will not let her lead an expedition to the powerful country Yuxue with only 10 people." , She has been giving Yuxue country an illusion that these 10 people are here to die, and he, Yuxue, can kill them as long as he moves casually, so they don't care. There are only 10 people, and it is enough for you to send out 20, then you need 40 or 50. So at first I thought that the ghost king did not dare to attack and was negligent, and then he thought he was strong and did not take them to heart. Mo will be defeated without dispatching the main force. And the ghost king is nibbling away at Yuxue step by step by virtue of his "underestimation of the enemy" and "arrogance."

The red-faced general nodded again and again, slapped his thigh and said: "The ghost king still made such a move, it's too cunning."

Another general said: "Not only cunning, but also enough courage. Not everyone has the guts to lead 10 people into Yuxue, which has millions of soldiers. At least I don't dare."

Mo Lingyu nodded with a smile, but his heart was extremely irritable. The Ghost King is a strong enemy. Now that she is busy with Yuxue, it is a good opportunity for him to attack Moyun. Unfortunately, the emperor is now in a coma, and the battle for the throne is fierce. Get away, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to find such a good opportunity from now on.

The atmosphere in Mo Yun's court was solemn, and the ghost king's victories in Yuxue were like resounding slaps in the face of the main peace faction.But this did not make them shut up, but they wrote to Emperor Qianzong time and time again: victory is only temporary, it is a fluke, and it will undoubtedly lose in the long run.Bai Ziyu, Qian Zong and others were already exhausted.

This morning, Yu Shangshu came up with a sentence: "The national treasury is empty, and there is no money, food, and grass to supply the ghost king with troops, so please ask the ghost king to retreat."

Qian Zong jumped up from his chair in fright, "How is it possible, it's only been two months."

Yu Shangshu said solemnly: "Last year's flood, the national treasury itself was not abundant, and the tax revenue was less than [-]%. Now that the three countries are at war at the same time, the food, grass, and military expenses have increased several times. It is very difficult to last for two months. Now I really can't do anything. .”

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and all the officials looked at Qian Zong without saying a word. Qian Zong sat down and thought for a while, then looked at Bai Ziyu.

Bai Ziyu also finds it tricky, but he knows that Yun Yuhong has a lot of money in his hands, and she has been cheating on Shangshu recently, so the matter of food and grass should not be difficult for her.But if you know it, you know it. Thinking about it, there are more than [-] troops and more than [-] mouths. It is impossible to say that you are not worried.Of course, the most urgent task is to deal with this full dynasty.

Bai Ziyu's face was still calm, and he said lightly: "The emperor and all the ministers don't need to worry about this matter. The ghost king didn't send anyone to urge food, so there is no need to worry, and it is mentioned in the ghost king's family book that she almost Yuxue received a lot of food and grass for the second victory, so it won't be a problem to cope with it for a while."

"How long will it last? If you can't defeat Yuxue before the food and grass are exhausted, will the result be the same?" Zhou Dashi said.

In fact, Master Zhou and Yu Shangshu have the same views on this matter. They are not optimistic about the victory of the ghost king, nor do they hope that she will win.The ghost king brought them a deep sense of crisis. The ghost king is the pillar of Qianzong, and the power of the ghost king will consolidate the imperial power.But they have done too much in front of Qianzong before, and once the power of the ghost king overwhelms them, one can imagine the fate of these aristocratic families.So the best result is that the ghost king withdraws his troops, the two countries negotiate a peace, and everything returns to the original state.

Although Bai Ziyu was angry, he had no choice but to answer: "Scholar Zhou doesn't want the ghost king to win. How can you be sure that our country can't win?"

"That Yuxue has an army of millions, and we don't have enough food and grass, how can we win." Another minister said.

Bai Ziyu sighed, and it came again. This scene was repeated every day, and he could memorize it. However, he could only repeat it once, and he could only repeat it until his Hong'er returned victorious.

Yun Yuhong is also well aware of the situation in the DPRK and China.However, she can only leave it to Bai Ziyu to deal with it. What she has to do is to keep attacking the city until Yuxue is captured.Therefore, after a brief revision of the army, she combined the two armies of Huacheng and Laocheng into one and marched to the foot of Wangcheng.

In Wangcheng, Master Cao was so regretful that his intestines were green. The [-] troops he trained so hard were ruined by these two bastards. Why didn't he stop him then?And now he will not let go of the remaining [-] Cao's army, even if the fifth prince is the chief general, he must obtain his consent to move any of his troops.Of course, his actions made the fifth prince furious, and even hated him to the bone.

Wangcheng was reinforced by Master Cao, and Yun Yuhong didn't think her tactics would work against a veteran on the battlefield like Master Cao.So she honestly set up the camp, and fought in a serious manner. It seemed that everything was normal, but was it really so normal?

There have been a lot of gossip in Qiongcheng in the past few days, such as the miraculous flood in Huacheng, the motto of Tianshu Daochang, a generation of high-ranking people, the fate of Tianshu, and the 20 Moyun soldiers in Laocheng captured [-] Yuxue soldiers. The anecdote of the captives, and the legend of eight children destroying [-] Cao's army.These all stimulated the sensitive spirit of Emperor Yuxue, especially the words of Yuxue who died in the sky, which had been widely circulated. This was something an emperor could not bear no matter what, but Yuxue, who was originally powerful, was always retreating. It is also true.After the Emperor Yuxue smashed the imperial study to pieces, he called Prime Minister Zhang and asked, "What's the matter with the fifth prince? The [-] elite soldiers couldn't repel the ghost king, but they failed one after another. Now the ghost king's army has come to Wangcheng. , If you call again, Qiongcheng will be lost. What does he do."

Prime Minister Zhang bowed and said, "I have heard about the reason for this incident, but I don't know if I should tell it?"

"You know? Tell me quickly." Emperor Yuxue asked suspiciously.He felt that this matter was not simple, and indeed there was a problem.

Prime Minister Zhang said in a deep voice: "The 20 troops have been under the control of the Cao family. Lord Cao is listening to Lord Cao. The fifth prince may not be able to command. When the troops were divided into Huacheng and Laocheng last time, the fifth prince also It’s wrong to say it, it’s just that Marquis Cao thinks highly of himself, doesn’t listen to persuasion, insists on going his own way, and finally loses so ugly.”

"Cao Hou Ye has always been modest, not like that kind of person, if he didn't listen to the fifth prince, why didn't he say it earlier?"

"The fifth prince thinks that Master Cao is a veteran, and maybe he has his own way of doing things. In addition, it is time to employ people, and such a veteran should be respected more." Prime Minister Zhang said it nicely, but a prince is so afraid of a veteran, I can't tell where I'm going.

Emperor Yuxue was extremely angry. Lord Cao Hou looked honest all the time, but he never thought that he would be entrusted to him when he was needed. Even the prince dared not look down on him. Does he still have such an emperor in his eyes?Emperor Yuxue nodded and asked Prime Minister Zhang to step down, and sent someone to call Master Wu, Minister of the Ministry of War, to come in to see him.

Wangcheng, Lord Cao and the King of Ghosts had just fought a battle and retreated from the battlefield. This battle was just a trial and did not do their best, and the result was evenly divided. However, Lord Cao felt very tired. Fifth prince, he really wanted to go back to the battlefield and fight the ghost king again, and he didn't want to see this high-ranking prince who pretended to understand and caused 10,000+ troops to die.

Entering the lobby, Master Cao was taken aback. When did the Minister of War, Master Wu, come?
The fifth prince sat in the upper seat with a gentle smile. When he saw Lord Cao come in, he got up and said, "Your Majesty Cao has worked hard, please take the seat."

Master Cao's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly said: "The fifth prince is too polite, but the old minister dare not. Why is Wu Shangshu here?"

Wu Shangshu looked at Master Cao and sneered, "Master Hou did not fight this beautiful battle. The 20 army could not take down the army of [-] ghost kings. The Holy One was impatient. Let me supervise the army and urge Lord Hou to win as soon as possible."

Lord Cao was stunned, and a deeper sense of exhaustion hit him. He didn't know what the fifth prince said, but obviously he pushed everything on him, and he didn't even have a chance to argue.The Holy One sent a supervising army to urge him to fight quickly, but how did they know how powerful the ghost king and the ghost king's army are.Another person who doesn't know how to fight comes to point fingers, that is, another shackle is put on him, making him even more restrained and unable to perform.The emperor didn't believe that these old ministers who had been with him for decades were jealous of each other at the critical moment, which made him feel sad that Yuxue was in danger!
