Volume 2 The White Horse Enters the Sky Chapter 57 Walk through your study and behead you
The battle situation of Mangcang Mountain soon spread to Liangzhou City, to Baima County, to Xuancheng Mansion, to Zhenhai County, to Yingtian City, knowing that in the end, the entire Great Chu State knew about the conspiracy between the Western Jin Dynasty and the Yue Kingdom, and hundreds of cities in the nine counties and eighty-one states maintained unprecedented unity at this moment, and maintained an incomparable hatred for the Yue Kingdom and the Western Jin Dynasty.
Compared with the Western Jin Dynasty, they did not hesitate to give more hatred to the Yue Kingdom. No one can forgive this shame of being calculated by the so-called own people.
Chu and Yue border, the historical exchanges are also very close, but the pattern of Chu is stronger and weaker has rarely changed, as soon as this incident came out, countless Chu people who did business in Yue returned to China one after another, and even cut off all the supply of goods to Yue State, and the Yue people who made a living in Chu State also suffered from unjustified disasters, they could not know how their king planned in his heart, but this did not prevent many Chu people from venting their hatred on them.
Between the countless streets and alleys of the Great Chu State, you can see the Yue people who are carrying large and small bags and dragging their families back to the country, the Chu people are martial, advocating the way of a gentleman, and they are the most shameless for this kind of scheme, not to mention the 40,000 elite soldiers who died in Mangcang Mountain, and they are the pillars of countless families in the Great Chu State, if it weren't for the fact that this war really has nothing to do with these Yue people, and even most of them have their own friends and brothers in the Chu State, and many old people who have lost their children in old age are eager to go up with knives to cut them to death, in order to relieve the hatred in their heartsγ
The Yue people who went abroad to make a living were driven back in embarrassment, and the Chu people, who controlled the economic lifeline of many industries in the Yue country, left the Yue country one after another, without the support of the commercial lifeline, naturally there were not so many jobs, and the economic system of the Yue country was paralyzed all of a sudden, and even many people had to take to the streets and began to rely on begging.
There have been no natural disasters such as drought and floods in the Endless Continent for many years, so in these years, the people of various countries have lived in peace and prosperity, and there is no communication between countries, and there is rarely a situation like the current situation of the Yue Kingdom.
From the luxury goods of silk, perfume, ceramics and tea, to the rigid needs of life, such as firewood, rice, oil and salt, the whole country has fallen into a state of shortage. After the battle of Mangcang Mountain was hastily completed because of the intervention of Tianbo Mansion, Emperor Yue's white hair instantly crawled all over his temples, he knew that if he failed to seek a tiger, he would definitely be eaten by the tiger, and the Great Chu State would definitely not let him go, but he didn't expect that the other party's offensive would come so quickly.
This is a war that happened without organization, without the emperor's order, and even without anyone to appeal, every Dachu person took spontaneous action, there was no gunpowder smoke and no war, but it really gave Yue a blow.
There was no way, he betrayed his neighbor first, no matter what he said, he had no reason to accuse anything, so he had to extend his hand to the Western Jin Dynasty for help.
Originally, it was to play a fake show of the Western Jin Dynasty to attack Yue to reap benefits, but the Yue Emperor knew that this time he was afraid that it would be self-defeating and the fake show was really done, just with the betrayal on the battlefield and the 40,000 dead sons of the Chu State, the army of the Chu State would definitely not take long before it would really be sent
The only way for him to fight the Yue now is to drive the tiger and devour the wolf and turn to the Western Jin Dynasty for help, otherwise he is afraid that the hundreds of years of inheritance of the Yue Kingdom will be lost in his hands.
Emperor Yue doesn't want to be the king of the dead country, even if the country is weak, even if he goes to be a dog in the Western Jin Dynasty, but the king is still a king, and it is definitely far from being comparable to the prisoners under the ranks.
In the imperial study, as at this time last year, the Yue Emperor wrote the letter asking for help and handed it over to the envoy.
With a long breath of relief, Emperor Yue sat down on the dragon chair and closed his eyes.
Since the news of Tianbo Mansion's intervention in the Mangcangshan battlefield came, he had not had a good night's sleep for several days and nights, and now he sent out the letter asking for help, although the big stone in his heart had not been put down, but the tense nerves were finally relaxed a lot, and he soon fell asleep.
He didn't know that once he closed his eyes, he would never be able to open them again.
A lancet came out of nowhere and landed on his neck, cutting off his head.
The guards on duty outside the imperial study did not notice anything unusual, and they didn't even see a figure, and the great head of Emperor Yue had already left the capital.
......
......
On the star-picking tower, the wrinkles on His Majesty the Emperor's face have deepened a lot in just a few days, making his whole person look extremely haggard, first the departure of the national teacher has brought him a huge blow, followed by the news that his own army on the battlefield of Mangcang Mountain has been calculated to have died 40,000 sons, which makes him even more angry, so there is this meeting today.
The emperor discusses politics, generally in Jinluan, hundreds of officials to the court, but today His Majesty Xi did not engage in such a big battle, the general is still on the way to the class, has not yet come to Yingtian City, so this meeting only came to the old general Yu and General Xing Weiqiao, who have long been at home and do not care about the world, of course, there is also the old man Wang Shulin who has been standing beside His Majesty all the year round.
"The matter of Mangcang Mountain, the two old generals must have heard about it. "Because after the soul of the national teacher returned to the sea of stars, His Majesty the Emperor has not eaten and slept properly for many days, and the circles under his pale face and eyes have turned a little blue, and even his lips have been chapped and chapped.
When has the king of a country ever looked so haggard.
The old general Yu Tianxiong and the old general Xing Weiqiao have not slept a reassuring sleep these days, the news of the soul of the national teacher returning to the sea of stars, ordinary people don't know, how can they not know, the Chu State lost its pillars, and the older generation of the same life for the Chu State, the sadness in their hearts is not much less than that of His Majesty the Emperor, coupled with the news of the defeat of the Mangcangshan General from the near future, the two old generals are also sad, with a sad and worried face.
Old General Yu sighed and muttered: "Your Majesty, Lao Xing and I have already received the news, but I hate that I am old and frail, and I am powerless, if it was thirty years ago, I would have gone to the battlefield to fight side by side with Erlang, and kill the dog thieves of the Western Jin Dynasty and the wolf cubs of the Yue Kingdom!"
Speaking of movement, he even disregarded etiquette and smashed a table of deliberations in a faux phallus
γ
General Xing Weiqiao said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this time I was calculated by the Western Jin Dynasty and the Yue Kingdom, and I lost 40,000 sons of my Great Chu.
His Majesty the Emperor said in a low voice: "The enmity of Mangcang Mountain, how the two countries of Jin and Yue deal with Chu, my Great Chu will definitely have to pay it back several times, I summoned the two old generals to come, it is to discuss this matter, General Ding and the remaining 60,000 sons are still on the way to the class, and I can only discuss with the two generals about military and political affairs, I don't know if the two old generals have any good plans." β
General Yu thought for a while and said: "The Yue country is weak, and it is not difficult to attack it, but my army will attack the Yue, so the Western Jin Dynasty will naturally not stand by, for fear that its thief will not die and sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, and want to reap the benefits of the fisherman. β
His Majesty the Emperor nodded and said: "The words of the old general, I have not thought about it, but if I do not avenge this revenge, I will be ashamed of the people of the world, and I will not be ashamed to face the spirit of the national teacher in the sky." β
The old general Xing Weiqi said angrily: "He dares to dispatch a cultivator in the realm of Wang Chen's old thief in the Western Jin Dynasty, then why can't our Great Chu, with Dean Hu and Dean Ren plus those old guys from the cultivation family in charge, we will destroy as many people as he comes from the Western Jin Dynasty, I am afraid of a ball!"
Old General Yu shook his head and sighed: "Old Xing, you are confused, have you forgotten how the battle of Mangcang Mountain was quelled? Tianbo Mansion has explicitly ordered cultivators not to participate in secular wars, Wang Chen's old thief has already broken the rules once and was punished by Mr. Five for self-imprisonment, if Dean Hu intervenes again, it will be the face of Tianbo Mansion on the surface, do you think that General Shen will watch the face of Tianbo Mansion being ignored by the world again and again?"
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what's the matter!" General Xing said angrily: "Could it be that the national teacher died in vain? Forty thousand sons died in vain? Mangcang Mountain's loss just gritted his teeth and swallowed?"
His Majesty the Emperor sighed and said slowly: "The ancients said that a weak country has no diplomacy, and a weak country has no waist. Compared with his Western Jin Dynasty, my Chu State is still too weak after all, but the 40,000 sons and daughters of my Great Chu must be explained!"
General Yu and General Xing Weiqiao lowered their heads silently, they really didn't know what to do.
His Majesty the Emperor shook his head helplessly, waved his hand and said: "Now that the national teacher is gone, my heart is empty, let's just wait for the general to come back, and then discuss this matter." β
......
......
The matter of Mangcang Mountain also quickly spread to Prince Qing's mansion.
Prince Qing's Mansion is located in a very prosperous territory in Yingtian City, covering a wide area, at this time the eldest prince Zhao Tianyi is sitting comfortably in the pavilion, drinking sake and enjoying the scenery, after receiving the spies to report the matter of Mangcang Mountain, although he is also very angry, but the first reaction is to care about the life and death of his third brother.
The spy naturally knew that Da Xia cared about Sanxia's life and death not because of any brother, but where did he dare to expose half a point, so he had to respond in a low voice: "Listen."
It is said that the little prince was surrounded and killed by the enemy on the battlefield for a long time, and was finally rescued by Dean Hu, and now he is on his way to the class, and his injuries have also healed. β
"Damn Jinyue dog thief!" The eldest prince Zhao Tianyi angrily smashed the wine glass to the ground, gritted his teeth and said: "It's really bold to hurt my third brother!"
He slammed the stone table in the pavilion and looked out into the distance.
It's useless, it's in vain for you to calculate my Da Chu like this, but you can't even put that wild seed on the table!
Zhao Tianfang, you are really a big life!
