The Peach Blossom Luck of Rebirth

Chapter 691 Who Instigated the Border War?

As for the state of Lu, not only is it self-sufficient in grain, but it also exports a large amount of grain. It is said that Xiang Sui and the Jingtian Dynasty exported a large amount of grain, which enriched the treasury of the State of Lu and made the people rich and the country strong.

In addition, the exquisite cloth of Lu State was being produced in large quantities, while the Rong State, which was a barren land, still wore heavy linen clothes.

My own concubines feel that I am incompetent and have not been able to provide them with gorgeous clothes. I can't hold my head up in front of the concubine for food and clothing.

As for the state of Lu, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and ordinary people live a happy life. It can be seen that the prosperity of the state of Lu has strengthened the motivation and determination of the leader of the state of Rong, Xia Houwei, to annex the state of Lu.

Only by invading and occupying the country of Lu can the country of Rong live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Houwei led several confidant ministers to further discuss the strategy to deal with Lu Guo, and planned until late at night.

Seven days later, the Lord of Fan Kingdom received a shocking news: Hundreds of Fan soldiers were patrolling the borders of Fan, Lu, and Rong, and were suddenly attacked by unknown troops. Fan sent people to investigate the situation.

As a result, the bodies of more than a hundred patrol soldiers were found in Lu State, which borders Lu State. These soldiers had their eyeballs gouged out, their hearts were pulled out, and their heads were in different places.

This incident was like a fuse that ignited the border war between Fan State and Lu State.

"Lu Guo is really vicious! You are so cruel, you are not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!"

Fan Yunfeng, the lord of the Fan Kingdom, immediately held a military meeting and ordered General Fan Zhongyue to lead [-] troops to gather near the border of Fan and Lu, preparing to attack Lu on a large scale.

The two masters of Gao Shuang, Chen Jishi and Li Zimo, who were in power on behalf of Lu Guo, also discussed countermeasures with Yi Qingchen, Wang Gang, Du Hu, Lei Dahai, Yang Wu, Wen Yuhuaji, Huang Fusong and others. .

Among them, Wen Yuhuaji and Huangfusong had the most say on the border between Fan State and Lu State. The border dispute between Fan State and Lu State had been formed during the time of the first emperor.This is a historical question that has remained unresolved.

Huangfusong was in charge of the security work on the border of Fan Lu, and he reported the situation truthfully: "After the investigation, our army did not act privately! Nor did we massacre the patrol soldiers of Fan State! Someone must have framed us secretly!"

"Yes! Although Lord Gao Shuang went to the Jingtian Dynasty, military discipline is strictly enforced in the entire Lu Kingdom!
Especially when it comes to border defense, we try our best to be patient. If the patrol soldiers enter the border line designated by us, we will give a resolute counterattack if they do not withdraw after warning!Deport the enemy patrols! "Lei Dahai added.

"However, with the current situation, Fan Guo no longer listens to our explanation, and has already assembled a large number of people at the border! It has put a lot of pressure on Lu Guo!" Chen Jishi said with some worry.

"Then let's get a soldier to block it! Water and earth will cover it!" Li Zimo, who is good at the art of war, said resolutely.

Yi Qingchen, Wang Gang, Du Hu, Lei Dahai, Yang Wu, Huangfusong and other generals shouted in unison: "Take us to fight!"

At this time, a fast horse galloped from afar. It was a soldier who came from the border of Fan Lu, dripping with sweat. He came to the palace of King Lu and said:

"Report! It's not good! Fan Guo's army has assembled at the border, and there are already [-] elite soldiers, and they are aggressively attacking our border! Our army also resisted bravely, but in the end, we were outnumbered and retreated steadily.

Fan Guo's vanguard troops have approached Lingzhou, a border city of our country!Siege Lingzhou! "
