My lord is a demon again

Chapter 436
"The military situation is urgent? What's the matter?"

Sikong Luo was about to ask clearly when he saw General Wang striding towards him.

"Brother-in-law, something is wrong. The Daheng Kingdom has made a comeback, and it has united the forces of the eleven northern and southern countries. There are at least 50 troops, and they are rushing towards our Dawu."

"50? How could this be?"

"I don't know either. Logically speaking, if you become the emperor, brother-in-law, Dawu's deterrent power will be much greater than before, but why are those small countries willing to unite with Daheng to attack our Dawu? Who gave them such great power? guts?"

Sikong Luo said: "Don't talk so much, immediately mobilize troops and horses, defend each pass, and never let the enemy enter the pass!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" General Wang took the order and left.

Sikong Luo didn't dare to neglect, and hurried back to the palace to preside over the overall situation.

On the court hall, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were running around in a hurry, when Sikong Luo came in.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

"Be flat!"

Sikong Luo didn't care too much, especially about etiquette. He didn't even have time to sit down on the dragon chair and asked: "Now that I am a great warrior, I am besieged on all sides, can all my lovers have a way to retreat from the enemy?"

The Minister of Rites said: "Your Majesty, the enemy must have been fully prepared for this attack, but our Great Wu Dynasty was not prepared. Therefore, I think it is best to negotiate a peace rather than fight hard."

The Minister of the Ministry of War said: "Master Shangshu, you are too lacking in ambition. I am a great warrior, and I am afraid that those small countries will not succeed? Soldiers come to block the water and cover them with soil, one to kill one, two to kill one pair, only in this way can we be successful." Show me my might!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, we fought with them. The martial arts in my Great Wu Dynasty have been prevalent for many years, and the people can form an army when they gather. No matter how many of them there are, we are not afraid!"

Sikong Luo nodded, and suddenly asked: "Where is Old General Zhuge?"

"Back to the emperor, the old general has led Zhuge's cavalry regiment to Dongling Pass to fight against the enemy immediately!"

"Yeah." Sikong Luo nodded, and asked again: "Where is the chief executive?"

"Chen is here!"

"How many guards are there now?"

"Return to the emperor, plus the capital patrol, a total of 5000 people."

"Okay, you immediately summon your subordinates, assign four city gates, prepare as much fuel, stones, bows and arrows as possible, put the whole army on emergency alert, and call the people of Dawu from outside the city into the city as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The Chief Ouchi took the order and left.

"Where is the commander of the Imperial Forest Army?"

"Chen is here!"

"How many people are there in the Royal Forest Army?"

"Your Majesty, the Royal Forest Army has a total of 8000 people, waiting for the emperor's orders at any time!"

"Well, you immediately select [-] elites and wait outside the imperial city. The other troops are divided into four groups and camped in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and fifteen miles away from the city."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The commander of the imperial forest army hurriedly took the order and left.

Seeing that Sikong Luo had deployed all his troops as soon as he opened his mouth, civil servants began to kneel and remonstrate: "Your Majesty, think twice, if you make a wrong move, the centuries-old foundation of my Great Wu Dynasty will be destroyed!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the enemy's military strength is as high as 50, and our military strength is too different. There is only one dead end to fight recklessly. It is better to negotiate a peace if we start a war. As long as we give them some benefits, they will naturally retreat—"

"Enough, retreat!"

Sikong Luo had long thought that people who were greedy for life and afraid of death would come out to stop him, and talking too much would only waste his tongue, and he couldn't come up with any good solution, so he simply came to retreat.

"Your Majesty, please think twice, Your Majesty!" A civil official suddenly hugged Sikong Luo's thigh and pleaded, "Once the war starts, the Great Wu will surely perish! I am not greedy for life and afraid of death, I am only thinking of the people of the world, please think twice, Your Majesty!"
