"I don't know when this battle will end?" Nan Sheng said with a frown.
"What's the matter? Are you still worried that your country's comfort will not be successful?" "The prince of the Otsuki Kingdom, King Muto, was half-lying on the soft collapse, surrounded by several beautiful women who were massaging him there.
"For people like me, there is no country, I'm just having a headache, what should I do with this business? Now this situation has delayed a lot of business~~!" Nan Sheng replied with a frown at Prince Muto's words.
At present, the war between Dayue and Nanshu has led to the complete stagnation of Nansheng's smuggling business, and it is reasonable for him to complain like this, so Prince Mutuo did not suspect anything, of course, this is also related to Nansheng's usual performance, he is only interested in business matters, and has never had anything to do with military and political affairs, as for the only thing he is particularly concerned about every time, it is only people's livelihood issues and, Prince Mutuo will not think that it is useful to just care about the clothing, food, housing and transportation of ordinary people.
"Haha~~~!Don't worry~~~!It won't be long before your business recovers, but maybe you won't have to smuggle ~~~!" Prince Muto laughed proudly when he said this, in his opinion, this time Dayue's invasion of Nansheng was nine out of ten, even if it was impossible to completely annex Xia Nanshu, but at least it would have to swallow a lot of the other party's territory.
Nan Sheng just smiled and said nothing about Prince Muto's words, he has been in the big moon in the past few years, and many people think that it is his powerful means, but only his own heart knows that it is because the master behind him is powerful, and a person who can deduce the national strength of a country from the clothing, food, housing and transportation of ordinary people can be easily beaten?
At this time, one of Nansheng's cronies suddenly came in from outside, he walked to Nansheng's side and whispered for a while, and handed him a letter, Nansheng did not carry Prince Mutuo on his back, but opened the letter directly, the content of the letter was not much, Nansheng could say that he had read it in two eyes, and after reading the letter, he frowned, and then looked up and said to Prince Muto.
"Your Royal Highness, I'm afraid that the war on the front line is not so optimistic, this time Dayue may have to suffer a big loss~~!"
"What did you say?" Mu Tuo hadn't reacted to what Nan Sheng said at the beginning: "Didn't you tell me that our Dayue's army suffered a defeat on the front line, right? Where is it? Is it at the Tiger Roar Pass? Don't be afraid~~~! Although the Tiger Roar Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is not much ability in our Dayue's cavalry hand~~~!"
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince~~!" Nan Sheng shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "Dayue's army has been directly rejected outside Qingshui City~~!"
Prince Muto didn't even have any impression of what kind of place Shimizu Castle was, because in the past battles, Shimizu Castle's weak defense couldn't even withstand Otsuki's attack, so for the kind of place that was not an obstacle at all, Prince Muto wouldn't remember this at all.
"Qingshui City?, what kind of place?" Prince Mutuo didn't think that Nan Sheng was fooling himself, he also knew some of Nan Sheng's ability, he knew that there was a huge force behind Nan Sheng supporting him, so sometimes he could also learn some news about Nanshu from his mouth that the secret agents couldn't inquire about, so he didn't think there was any problem with Nan Sheng's ability to get some information from the front line.
"Qingshui City is a small city on the border between Nanshu and Dayue, and it can be said to be the first line of defense in Nanshu~~!" Nan Sheng repeated in a very flat tone, but a trace of nostalgia appeared in his heart.
After hearing Nan Sheng's words, Prince Mutuo's brows furrowed, he seemed to recall the small border city called Qingshui City, which should be the most marginal city in Nanshu Kingdom, and it can be regarded as the gateway of Nanshu Kingdom, but it is very weak, it can be said that Dayue is a place that any large tribe can conquer, but now someone says to himself, Dayue's hundreds of thousands of elite troops are actually blocked outside such a small city? In his opinion, this is like a big joke!
Nan Sheng also knew that Prince Mutuo would definitely not believe what he said just now, so he reached out and handed the letter he had just received to Prince Mutuo, and said to him: "This letter is very clear, and this letter came with a batch of goods from Nanshu, that is to say, the army in Dayue did not conquer Nanshu, and I still have two dark lines that have not been broken, so the goods can be shipped out as usual~~!"
Nan Sheng's words made Prince Mutuo's face suddenly become very ugly, he violently pushed away the woman beside him, and then grabbed the letter handed to him by Nan Sheng and looked at it, and the more he looked at the expression on his face, the more difficult it was to look, the content of the letter was very simple, it was written that Da Yue's army was blocked outside Qingshui City, and there were 50,000 troops in Qingshui City that General Li came to meet in advance, but the ready-made repeating crossbows and artillery in Qingshui City were only very vaguely described.
"How can this be reasonable~~~!" Prince Mutuo angrily threw the letter in his hand to the ground, no wonder he would be so angry, in fact, Dayue's conquest this time is not agreed by everyone, but the main battle faction pressed the anti-war faction and obtained a temporary victory, and he happened to be the leader of the main battle faction, if Dayue's invasion of Nanshu this time is not successful, he Prince Muto will bear the brunt of the punishment, and those anti-war factions will also fall into the ground, and then their own situation in the court will be troublesome.
"Is this true?" asked Nan Sheng, still in disbelief.
"It should be true~~!Because this news came with my goods, if there is a war in Nanshu, there will definitely be no way to send the goods~~!" Nan Sheng replied very calmly~~!
"Damn~~!Why did General Li of Nanshu suddenly appear in such a small city? Shouldn't he guard the Tiger Roar Pass?" Because the letter mentioned that General Li led 50,000 elite soldiers to suddenly appear in Qingshui City before Da Yue came, so Prince Mu Tuo mistakenly thought that the reason why Da Yue's army was still wandering outside the border was mainly because General Li and those 50,000 elite soldiers, General Li must also be a famous general, and what he was best at was fighting defensive battles.
And at this time, Prince Muto remembered that there was something wrong, he had not received a briefing from the front for a long time, and this alone had already explained that there was a problem, thinking of this, Prince Muto couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly left.
Nan Sheng looked at Prince Mutuo leaving in a hurry, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, although he didn't know what the specific situation was at the border gate, but since the master asked people to send this letter directly like this, he obviously wanted people to know the content of the letter, and all he needed was to release the news, as for the next thing, it was not something he needed to worry about.
After Prince Mutuo left Nansheng, he calmed down, he thought carefully about the content of the letter, and felt that it should not be a big deal, even if there were 50,000 more elite soldiers and General Li in that small city of Nanshu, what could he do? As long as his side does not count the casualties and attack, it is not impossible to take the other party, thinking of this, he is not panicked in his heart.
But in any case, it is not a good thing for the army to be blocked on the border, and before those anti-war factions find out, they must quickly solve this problem, so Prince Muto found his cronies and advisers to discuss for a long time, Prince Muto went to the palace, and when he returned from the palace, a small group of people quietly went out of the city and went straight to the front.

Mu Heke was about to go crazy when he received the secret order sent by the messenger, the army was blocked outside Qingshui City, and now he has received a secret order from His Majesty to attack with all his strength, and he must quickly take Qingshui City, isn't this forcing himself and his soldiers to send them to death, if Qingshui City is so easy to conquer, can he not give the order to conquer until now? What I am afraid of is that after giving the order to attack to the death, the final result is that the army is defeated but still cannot be defeated!
"Special envoy, there is a problem in this Qingshui City right now, and they don't know where they got ~~~~~~!" Originally, Mu Heke planned to give His Majesty's envoy a good explanation, but he never thought that the other party would not listen to his explanation at all.
"General Mu~~~!" The envoy directly interrupted Mu Heke's words and said: "Zai Xia is just a small messenger, I don't understand the general's war, so the general can't understand these things when I say this, but this will was issued by Your Majesty, can it be said that the general still wants to resist the decree? So General Mu still don't explain anything here with Zaixia, hurry up and order the siege~~!"
Mu Heke was scared by the other party's words, and he didn't know what to say, and what the other party said was right, now he has no way out, and only by desperately taking Qingshui City can he have a way to live, otherwise he will go back like this, it can only be a dead end, it is better to give it a go now, maybe there will be a glimmer of life.
So Muheko summoned the generals to the big tent and ordered them to count all the soldiers and horses early tomorrow morning, and they must take Qingshui City. But what Mu Heke didn't know was that the person with His Majesty's secret letter was actually Prince Muto's person, and what he didn't know was that someone in Shimizu City had already prepared a big gift for him.
"How's it going, it's all buried?" Mr. Wind stood at the gate of the city in the night, anxiously asking the group of people who had just returned from outside.
"Well, don't worry, sir, everything has been buried, now it's just waiting for some of Otsuki's dog things to be delivered to the door~~!" The person who replied was wearing a gray earth-colored dress and a hat of the same color, and they were lying on the ground outside, which was difficult for people to find.
"Okay~~~!Great~~~!" Mr. Feng nodded happily, his side had already asked someone to pass the news to Dayue, and the other party should also take action when the appointment was made, so he had to finish all the preparations that should be done.

"This war is estimated to be over soon~~!" Li Shuo shook the letter at Li Hui after looking at the news sent over.
"It's over~~!" Li Hui took the letter and looked at it and said, "I've made a lot of money for this war, and now I think about it's not cost-effective~~!"
Li Hui is not unreasonable to complain like this, for the sake of this war, she didn't take out good things outside, not even to mention the crossbow, and now even artillery and mines have been contributed, if this war is lost, she will really lose money~~!
For his wife's complaints, Li Shuo walked over and hugged her in his arms, and kissed her face gently, in fact, for this war, he didn't need to get so many things like Li Hui, but Li Shuo knew that she was actually trying to help Duanmu Shuxuan secretly in her heart, after those things were taken out, the national strength of the entire Nanshu Kingdom would reach an unprecedented height, which made him feel a little uncomfortable in his heart, but fortunately, he knew in his heart that the current Li Hui was his own, so he was not so jealous in his heartใ
"When the war is over, let's go out and have a good time~!" Li Shuo put his chin on the top of Li Hui's head and said softly.
"Okay~~~!" Li Hui nodded in agreement to Li Shuo's suggestion, "Just take my daughter out and broaden her horizons~!"
When Li Shuo heard this, he felt much more comfortable in his heart, and the corners of his mouth also rose, and Li Hui, who was in his arms, was also secretly relieved in his heart, in fact, although Li Shuo didn't say anything for a while, she was still very sensitive to the discomfort in his heart, when he did have such a relationship with Duanmu Shuxuan, but after he promised to marry him, he had already ended that relationship, and the reason why this is the case now is because he doesn't want the people of Nanshu to be miserable, but it makes Li Shuo mistakenly think that he still has feelings for Duanmu Shuxuanใ
