Chapter 596: Three of Them Become Tigers
Mo Xuan thought that he would be greeted with a warm welcome from everyone when he came back, but who would have thought that it would be an overwhelming complaint, which made him speechless!
But everyone didn't really blame him, just complained, and overall he was ecstatic!
"Alright, alright...... I'll talk about these miscellaneous things later, and I'll put it back what you've experienced for most of the past six months!"
"The situation of our Junxuan Empire is not very good now, you are back to preside over the overall situation!"
……
Mo Li motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then sighed to Mo Xuan!
"I just wanted to ask you about this, but when I came back, I noticed that something was wrong!"
"A large number of strange people have appeared in the Empire, and the whole Empire seems to be gloomy, what happened?"
"When I first came in, you had a heated discussion, and the sand table was laid out, what was going on?"
……
Mo Xuan also asked, a little curious!
He understands the temper of the eldest brother, and under normal circumstances, he would not be angry with his subordinates, but when the door of the temple was pushed open just now, the eldest brother was so angry, which shows the anxiety in his heart!
Mo Xuan clearly noticed this detail, so he didn't care about talking about the old days, so he asked first!
Hearing Mo Xuan say this, everyone's excited emotions instantly cooled down, and many people sighed lightly, as if they were ashamed to face Mo Xuan's inquiry!
"Come, sit down first, and then speak slowly!" Mo Zhi sighed, leading the group back to their seats!
Mo Xuan found a place to sit down at random, and then everyone took their seats one by one and began to continue discussing!
"Old Seven, don't you know, the **** Hanyang Empire has attacked us!"
"They are dispatched from all directions, and all kinds of means have been used, and they have pressed the realm step by step, causing us to retreat one after another!"
"The strange army you saw on the way back is actually the people of the Hanyang Empire!"
……
After everyone sat down, Mo Xin slapped the table, scolded and scolded, and couldn't help but stand up again!
"Oh, the Hanyang Empire actually started a war against us, when did it happen?"
"What about the Jinfeng Empire? They are allies with us, can they stand by and watch?"
……
Mo Xuan frowned, feeling a little strange!
"There is no problem with the Jinfeng Empire, they have indeed sent troops to help, the main problem is actually our own!"
"As soon as you left, it was more than half a year, and there was no news, and the Hanyang Empire saw that there was an opportunity, so it launched a violent attack!"
"They are as strong as a cloud, strong and strong, and once the offensive is launched, it will be like a flood of floodgates, and it is difficult to resist!"
"This alone is not difficult to deal with, the most important thing is the instability of the people caused by your disappearance!"
"There are a lot of folk gossip, and under the impetus of the Hanyang Empire, there are countless rumors about your fall!"
"We have also come forward to refute the rumors, but the effect is very small, the people and soldiers are very uneasy, the hearts of the army and the people are not firm enough, and the natural combat power and cohesion are not as good as before!"
In the end, the Hanyang Empire even spread rumors that it was ...... Our Junxuan Empire is a strong foreign power, and it will definitely be defeated!"
"They showed all kinds of war puppets and instruments to the outside world, and each one was extremely shocking, and made the already restless people even more frightened!"
"The emotions of the people have affected the army, not to mention the low-level soldiers, even the grass-roots officers, they can't sit still!"
"No matter how much we try to refute the rumors, it's useless, after all, you really haven't come back, facts speak louder than words, no matter how much explanation you have, you can't stop the rumors spread by the enemy!"
"Over time, we are losing and retreating, and the help of the Jinfeng Empire is minimal, and it is difficult to reverse the overall situation!"
"The anxiety we are discussing here just now is because the army of the Hanyang Empire has conquered one of our giant cities and is advancing towards the imperial capital!"
……
Mo Li said in a deep voice, roughly explaining the crisis encountered by the Junxuan Empire during this time!
After listening, Mo Xuan didn't speak for the first time, but gently tapped his index finger on the table, thinking about this information!
He probably figured out the situation, it turned out that the abnormalities in his empire were caused by the war launched by the Hanyang Empire, and the strange armies he witnessed along the way were all from the Hanyang Empire!
Thinking about this, his eyes became a little cold!
"I see, I said how the territory of the empire is full of war, it turns out that there is really a war!"
"When exactly did the war start, and apart from the Hanyang Empire, were there any other empires involved, or secretly intervened in this matter?"
……
After Mo Xuan pondered for a while, he asked!
"It's just the war that started two months ago, it's a shame to say that although we have done our best to develop in the past half a year, in terms of overall national strength, it is still not as good as the Hanyang Empire!"
"It's okay not to fight, after the real fight, the gap between the strength and material resources and all aspects will be revealed!"
……
Mo Zhi sighed!
"That's right, those soldiers trained under my hands, in terms of bravery, are definitely not weaker than the Hanyang Empire!"
"But the gap in military equipment is too big, the Hanyang Empire has a long time of precipitation, we have only been established for more than half a year, and the gap in heritage is difficult to make up!"
"When we meet on the battlefield, we are ordinary armor, they are excellent puppet battle armor, there is no comparison at all!"
"In addition, Lao Qi is not here, the army is uncertain, and the enemy army has seized this loophole to spread rumors wantonly and shake the stability of our side, and the gap is getting bigger and bigger!"
……
Mo Zhan also echoed, he has always been serious and old-fashioned, and he is also very headache at this time!
"Not only that, but what is worse is the economic and trade crisis, which is a fundamental matter of the country!"
"Since the Hanyang Empire learned of your departure, they launched a series of targets, first cutting off the trade between the two countries, and then coercing and luring us and other surrounding countries to isolate us!"
"All of a sudden, the trade side was directly cut off, and it could only be self-sufficient, and the treasury was almost emptied!"
"The people's livelihood has been greatly affected, the national mood is unstable, coupled with the fueling of various rumors, the people have tended to the stage where the people are not able to make a living!"
"The most important thing is that the severance of trade has also affected our contact with Fugui, and it is difficult for him to secretly smuggle materials to finance us, and without his help, our development speed is also limited and greatly reduced!"
"In order to avoid the exposure of Fugui's identity, I will ask him not to be reluctant, and suspend contact for a period of time!"
……
The ink merchant also spoke, counting the blows suffered by the side he was responsible for one by one!
Next, the other brothers and the ministers of the palace also reported one after another, and Mo Xuan's head was big when they heard it!
Finally, after everyone finished speaking, Mo Xuan rubbed his temples and thought about it carefully!
"The battle started two months ago...... In other words, it will only take two months at most?"
"It doesn't make sense...... With our strength, even if we are defeated, we won't fall more than half of the city in two months!"
……
Mo Xuan frowned, feeling incredible!
He knows the strength of his brothers, strategists and warriors, and it should be impossible to be defeated with cooperation!
Mo Xuan's eyes were inquiring, and he glanced at the brothers, wondering what the problem was!
"Alas...... It's really a bit ashamed, we lost so quickly, the gap in strength and material resources is one thing, but the main reason is still in my military division!"
"The commander of the Hanyang Empire's expedition this time is a young prince named Marquis Xintian!"
"This person is talented, talented, and has a terrible grasp of all aspects of marching and combat!"
"Under his leadership, the armies of the Hanyang Empire fought in a treacherous style, sometimes cunning like a snake, sometimes fierce as a tiger, and sometimes agile as a leopard...... It's hard to fathom!"
"I fought with him a few times, but I was not as good as the strategy, and finally lost, which led to a situation of defeat and retreat!"
……
Mo Zhi sighed lightly, feeling a little sorry!
"Third child, don't blame yourself too much, that Xintianhou's ability is obvious to all, and defeat is not your responsibility alone!" Mo Li patted him on the shoulder and enlightened!
"Xintian Hou ......" Mo Xuan squinted slightly, repeating the name twice, and was surprised!
He knows the ability of the third brother Mo Zhi, this so-called Xintian Hou can make the third brother lose convincingly, it seems that there are indeed two brushes!
He was a little surprised by this, but he was not shocked, after all, the real excellence of the third brother Mozhi lies in the governance of the country, which belongs to the category of communication, not the military!
It's not hard to accept being inferior to others in terms of fighting!
Mo Xuan figured out his head after a little thought, and then said: "Third brother, you don't need to care too much, you are strong in the country and the country, not in the city, and it is normal for your skills to be inferior to others!"
"There is a specialization in the art industry, no one will blame you for the frustration in this area, there is no need to blame yourself!"
"I already know this matter in my heart, so if you believe in Tianhou, leave it to me to deal with it!"
"As for the business part, for the time being, we will maintain this state of self-sufficiency, and try not to have any intersection on the rich side, he is in the hinterland of the enemy, once exposed, it is too dangerous!"
"When this battle is over, everything will naturally improve, and the people's livelihood crisis will be solved!"
"As for the problem of the army under our command, armaments and the like are trivial matters, and if there is anything missing, we will grab it!"
"Aren't all the soldiers of his Hanyang Empire having puppet armor, well-made and strong defense, then let's grab them all!"
"I believe that our soldiers, their abilities are by no means measurable by armor!"
"The only problem is the wavering of the morale of the army, which is also the problem that the people of the entire empire are currently facing!"
"This problem, in fact, is not a big problem, it is easy to solve, and if we get it, our decline will be solved!"
……
Mo Xuan analyzed them one by one, gathered all the problems, found out the core key points, and solved them!
Hearing this, everyone nodded one after another, feeling reasonable, and their minds settled down a lot!
Everyone's mental outlook is completely renewed, Mo Xuan has this unique charm, as long as he appears, even if the sky falls, the people around him will not panic!
This is the contagious power of the leader, where he is, there will naturally be boundless cohesion, irreplaceable!
Originally, everyone was panicked, but as soon as Mo Xuan came back, everything was done with a simple few words, which made them calm down!
This kind of ability is only possessed by real leaders, and others can't envy it!
After the mood settled down, everyone was naturally very happy, and Mo Xin, who had always been a living treasure, couldn't sit still again!
"Hey...... That's that...... Lao Qi is back, what kind of Xintianhou is bullshit!"
"As long as Lao Qi goes out for a walk and announces to the world that you are back, the rumors will be self-defeating!"
"In this way, the wavering of the people's hearts will also disappear, Lao Qi, do you say that I am right?"
……
Mo Xin explained with a grin, thinking that he had guessed all of Mo Xuan's plans, but in exchange for Mo Xuan's shaking his head!
"You're right, but that's not my intention, I'm not going to waste my time visiting the entire empire so that everyone can see that I'm back!"
"Although this move is effective, the efficiency is too low, and it doesn't matter in peacetime, but now the war situation is tense, and it is not suitable for this method!"
……
Mo Xuan shook his head and said!
"Then what are you going to do?" Mo Xin was stunned, and couldn't help but get closer, very curious!
The others also looked at Mo Xuan one after another, and their eyes were surprised!
Being looked at by everyone like this, Mo Xuan pondered for a while, remembering the story he had seen in an ancient book in the Book of Ten Thousand Worlds of War!
"I once saw a story in an ancient scroll called ...... The three of them became tigers, I don't know if you have heard of it?" Mo Xuan immediately spoke!
Everyone was dumbfounded and shook their heads blankly!
"This story is actually very simple, Sixth Brother, let me ask you, if you are wandering on the road and suddenly meet a person shouting that there is a tiger in the market in front of you, do you believe it?" Mo Xuan smiled at Mo Xin!
"That's naturally unbelievable, just he screams alone, I'll just treat him as a fool!" Mo Xin said with a big grin!
"Then what if a second person rushes over and screams for a tiger while fleeing?" Mo Xuan asked again!
"This ...... I can't say, I'm going to be skeptical!" Mo thought for a moment and hesitated!
"Then what if a third person rushes over and shouts like that soon?" Mo Xuan laughed!
"In that case, I guess I'll believe it, and I'll definitely run over to see if that's the case!"
"But what do you mean by talking about this, what do you mean?
……
Mo Xin wondered!
"Naturally, it's related, the question I ask you is the origin of the story of the three of them becoming tigers!"
"The reason why I talk about this is that I want to tell you that we don't need to send people to go to the trouble to announce the world one by one, just let people move their mouths!"
"Among the people, there is no news that spreads faster than gossip, and the Marquis of Xintian of the Hanyang Empire is taking advantage of this to spread unfavorable news and shake the hearts of our people!"
"We can repay the favor in the other way, spread the news of my return by ourselves, and even exaggerate, saying how many good things I brought back, and let the people spread it themselves!"
"Sometimes, official rumors are not as convincing as rumors among the people!"
"This is also the truth contained in the three people becoming tigers, one is passed on to ten, ten to hundred, there are many people, and the fake can be believed, let alone the truth!"
"In this way, not only can we block the false and unfavorable rumors spread by Xintian Hou, but also calm the hearts of the people and the army, killing two birds with one stone!"
"On the other hand, the rumors will definitely not only spread in our Junxuan Empire, but will soon spread outside, at that time, as long as I don't show my head and don't show my hole cards, it will be difficult for the enemy to judge the authenticity of the rumors!"
"When the time comes...... The one who has a headache is the Marquis of Xintian, and the one who is unstable is the army of the Hanyang Empire!"
"As long as we exaggerate the facts, the enemy army will naturally be panicked and speculate non-stop, coupled with the stability of our own side and the dispelling of unfavorable rumors, it can be said that we will kill three birds with one stone, is it more efficient than going out to refute the rumors ourselves?"
……
Mo Xuan laughed slowly, confident!
