Eternal Love

  Chapter One Hundred and Seventeen Crisis (4)

"what's up?"

  The arrival of Shan Zhen was not only to ease the atmosphere, Zhou Cheng also shifted his mind to some extent, otherwise he himself could not guarantee whether he could control his emotions.

   "Xia Guo is moving."

"what!!??"

  As soon as Shan Zhen's words were spoken, it immediately caused a commotion. From Shan Zhen's expression, they decided that it was not a good thing. If it was so, it was undoubtedly worse for Zhou Guo.

"carry on."

  The commotion returned to the commotion. The situation was serious. The commotion was immediately calmed down by Zhou Cheng's signal, and they all quieted down to listen to Shan Zhen's report.

   "I just received a report that Xia's army has begun to assemble. It is said to be here to support..."

At this point, Shan Zhen paused and looked at Zhou Cheng. After a moment, Shan Zhen continued, "But our country has not issued such a request at all, so it is not credible. It will be less than a month since the accident in our country, Xia Guo’s army Even though they have assembled, they are obviously prepared early. I'm not sure they want to join forces with Wu and Han, but they definitely didn't come to support."

  San Zhen’s words were very affirmative, and everyone present was sweating. If it is true, although it is not clear, it must be unkind. As a result, Zhou Guo can be said to be in a very crisis state.

One wave is not settled and another wave rises again. Zhou Cheng is very clear that if he is facing a battle with the Three Kingdoms, Zhou will never have a chance to win. Let’s not say that he has only half of Zhou’s forces. Han, Wu and Xia are all. It is not a small country, second only to Zhao and Zhou. Right now, just facing the offensives of Han and Wu, they have been defeated, and no countermeasures have been drawn up. If Xia Guo is added at this time , Zhou Guo will undoubtedly be defeated.

   "Don’t Xia Guo have an alliance with our country? What will they do if they don’t come to support?"

  Under the tense topic, some people can’t help but speak. Indeed, Zhou and Xia are allies and have already drawn up a covenant. There is no doubt that it is support, but in fact this covenant has already been shaken.

   "Yes, Princess Xia is my Queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although unfortunately killed, she can also..."

  Another general spoke up, telling the reason, but he didn’t know how to end it. Of course, they couldn’t believe it would break the relationship between the two countries, and the soldiers all agreed.

Zhou Cheng was not surprised by the speeches of the soldiers, because they were always away and could not grasp many things, so they should not be blamed; yes, generally speaking, Xia Ningshuang’s death was not enough to affect the relationship between the two countries. He had already explained the cause of death to Xia Guo earlier, but Xia Guo didn’t believe it and became entangled. This is not difficult to understand. King Xia’s love for Xia Ningshuang was well known, so he insisted that Xia Ningshuang’s death was deliberate, regardless of Zhou Guo. How to explain it will not help, and it will lead to the occurrence of the status quo; Xia Guo has made preparations at any time shortly after Xia Ningshuang's death, so it is not difficult to explain the current situation.

"The King Xia has always been worried about the death of Queen Xia. They had already taken action shortly after the death of Queen Xia. You must know that Xia's military strength is not less than that of Da Zhou. Even if it is hard to fight at that time, We won, and it won’t be much better."

Shan Zhen knows the meaning of the generals just like Zhou Cheng, so he explained it to everyone, but once this is said, it is undoubtedly bad news for everyone. Shan Zhen's words are too realistic, and the reality is so cruel. It is more euphemistic, so this can be said to be a complete statement, directly confirming that Xia Guo is not an ally in the past, but an enemy nowadays.

   "So, are we going to face the joint attack of the three countries?" a general said.

The reality is cruel. This is a self-conscious and unchanging saying. Everyone looked at each other and no one dared to say anything. They knew the next situation too much. Not to mention facing the Three Kingdoms, it was facing any one of the three countries. For Zhou Guo They are all difficult opponents; first, in a one-to-one situation, Zhou may be able to guarantee victory, but it is not a small price to pay; then with one enemy and two, the result is now, they are like a broken bamboo, Zhou's national defense is invincible, and the city continues to grow. Lost; in the end, it was Xia Guo, who joined the last, and the result was already clear without thinking about it.

   "The emperor, we can't just sit and wait like this. We should ask King Jing to come back for assistance right away. If we can, we might be able to use Zhao's forces..."

A seemingly senior general speaks, the front is the facts, and the back voice becomes almost inaudible. It is conceivable that this general also has relative dignity; yes, it is only Zhou Yan, as the prince of Zhou, let him It’s normal to come forward, but Zhao Guo, everyone present knows that this year’s Zhao Guo’s wars have continued, and it is even more internal and external. Even if Zhao Guo handles it properly, they cannot hide their strength; therefore, Zhou, who is as famous as Zhao Guo In this case, if Zhao Guo sent troops, it would undoubtedly harm Zhou Guo's face. As a soldier, this kind of dignity still exists.

As for Zhou Yan, as the prince of Zhou, he also holds half of the military power. He has known this situation for a long time, but he hasn't acted for a long time, and he didn't even show up. This is also one of the reasons why everyone feels uneasy; Therefore, Zhou Cheng was even more helpless. Even he could not guarantee that Zhou Yan would come forward. Even if Zhou Yan was indifferent, he would not be curious. The crisis that Zhou Guo faced was unprecedented, and Zhou Yan’s military strength was crucial. The important thing is not to ask Zhao Guo to send troops. If Zhou Yan doesn't contribute, Zhou Guo can say that he can only wait and die.
