"What? The twenty armies of the Great Zhou have already reached the kingdom? What can I do about this?"

"It's over now, the 400,000 army has been beaten by others, isn't it ...... now!"

"Your Majesty, I think we should hurry up and offer some gifts to Da Zhou, they will definitely stop here!"

Listening to the words of the courtiers, Zhong Wanda's face showed a trace of sadness, is this the current Tianpeng Kingdom?

On the surface, it is the strongest of the four countries, but in fact, it is rotten at the root, and this group of nobles only has their own interests in their eyes, and there is no country at all.

Such a kingdom, even if the Great Zhou does not send troops to retaliate, how long can it be glorious?

But Emperor Qiu Tongbai didn't think so, because he had the same idea as these families, and to put it bluntly, the royal family was just a big family.

However, in order to maintain the royal prestige, he still pretended to be serious and said: "Give me silence, the court is noisy, what kind of system is it?"

Qiu Tongbai's angry shout was quite effective, and the ministers in the court also quieted down for the time being, staring at Qiu Tongbai sitting on the dragon chair one by one.

Qiu Tongbai took a deep breath, and then said: "The Great Zhou army is sharp, and it is indeed not something that the current Tianpeng Kingdom can compete with. ”

"Therefore, in order to keep the hope of the kingdom, I decided to concentrate all the troops north of the imperial capital and the nearby states and counties in the imperial capital to resist the invasion of the enemy country. ”

In this way, Qiu Tongbai is equivalent to giving up a large area of land north of the imperial capital, as well as the nearby counties to the Great Zhou, which can be described as a nest.

It's a pity that the ministers of the court didn't care, but they all supported it vigorously.

"Your Majesty's plan is wonderful!"

"In this way, we can gather at least 150,000 troops to fight against the enemy. ”

"Your Majesty, Hello, Hurrah, Hooray, Hello!"

Ye Tianyuan, who was standing between the ministers of the court, snorted coldly when he saw this scene, and then whispered to himself: "It's really a bunch of moths, you know how to protect yourself." ”

The assets of these families are all in the imperial capital, so in their eyes, the safety of the imperial capital is more important than everything.

As long as their interests are not violated, they will not care how much land the kingdom has lost!

This is also the reason why Ye Tianyuan looks down on them.

Ye Tianyuan was born in a poor family, and because he was appreciated by the generalissimo of the kingdom's soldiers and horses, he was promoted to the second person in the military of the Tianpeng Kingdom, so he hated Li Cunxiao who killed the dust.

Now seeing that the ministers of the DPRK and China are blindly seeking peace and avoiding war, their hearts are full of anger, but they are helpless.

The Kingdom of Tianpeng is the kingdom of the family after all!

After some discussion among the ministers of the DPRK and China, the matter of resisting the Great Zhou was finally decided, and it was called a strategic abandonment of the territory outside the imperial capital and an all-out defense of the imperial capital.

......

When the Tianpeng Kingdom was rapidly shrinking its forces and was brutally recruiting troops near the imperial capital, the distance between the Huolin Legion and the imperial capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom was getting closer and closer.

Now that three days have passed since the Great Zhou attacked the Tianpeng Kingdom, Li Cunxiao has achieved fruitful results, but also discovered the subtle changes in the military situation in recent days.

"Fengxiao, the situation seems to have changed!"

Li Cunxiao, who was riding on the dragon horse and parallel to Guo Jia, showed a trace of doubt on his face.

On his left and right sides, there are also three generals, Gao Shun, Hao Meng, and Zang Ba, who are also riding horses in parallel.

As for the revenge of the public and the enemy, this old guy has always ridden a snake alone, and never rode a horse.

Hearing Li Cunxiao's question, Guo Jia smiled and said, "The general is saying that we haven't encountered decent resistance in the past few days, and the army of the Tianpeng Kingdom suddenly disappeared!"

Li Cunxiao nodded, and then said: "Yes, although the pace of our attack is very fast, and we have not been subjected to too strong resistance, but that is because our strength is too strong, and the spirit of the Tianpeng Kingdom is still there." ”

"Today's Tianpeng Kingdom is more like it has completely given up resistance, waiting for us to occupy it, weird!"

Gao Shun and the others, at this time, also showed a trace of doubt on their faces, the regular army of the Tianpeng Kingdom seemed to have disappeared out of thin air overnight, and there was not a single ghost to be seen.

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "General Li, maybe the Tianpeng Kingdom has not given up resistance, but has put more energy into their imperial capital. ”

Guo Jia saw through everything at a glance, they were only a few hundred miles away from the Emperor of the Tianpeng Kingdom now, but they had not seen any shadows of soldiers, except for all of them retreating to the imperial capital, he couldn't think of any other possibilities.

When Li Cunxiao heard this, he said with disdain: "Again the domineering machine technique and Zhang Han are here, even if the imperial capital defense of the Tianpeng Kingdom is excellent, we can easily take it." ”

Guo Jia's face was not so relaxed, but he muttered to himself: "It's better to be careful." ”

He's not a person to be proud of, and he won't relax until he really sees victory.

"Bonghyo, what are you talking about?"

Vaguely hearing Guo Jia's muttering, Li Cunxiao frowned and asked suspiciously.

Guo Jia came back to his senses and said, "General Li, General Zhang Han should be going to meet the Eagle Yang Legion and the Golden Fire Cavalry!"

Li Cunxiao nodded and said, "Yes!"

Two days after they attacked the Tianpeng Kingdom, the Eagle Yang Legion and Meng Tian's Golden Fire Cavalry also arrived, and in order to let them join the Fire Lin Legion, Zhang Han took the initiative to ask to meet them.

Guo Jia thought for a while and said, "General Li, please send someone to inform the two support armies now, so that they can temporarily change their itinerary and not join us!"

"Let the Eagle Yang Legion divide an army of 30,000 to bypass the imperial capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom and set up an ambush a hundred miles to the west, and at the same time, the other 20,000 troops will go to the east to set up an ambush, and General Meng Tian's golden fire cavalry will secretly detour to the south of the imperial capital. ”

"Since the emperor of the Tianpeng Kingdom is already in our pocket, why don't we use him to wipe out the reinforcements of the Tianpeng Kingdom? ”

Li Cunxiao's eyes lit up, this method could undoubtedly save them a lot of time, and they didn't have to run around after laying down the imperial capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom.

Then, he said to Zang Ba beside him: "General Zang Ba, you personally go and inform General Zhang Han of Fengxiao's plan, go and go back quickly!"

......

For Ryoma, the journey of a hundred miles can be completed in less than two hours, so the Fire Lin Legion, which was not hindered in any way, also quickly came to the capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom.

As Guo Jia expected, the battle flag fluttered above the imperial capital at this time, and a soldier with a dignified face stood on top of the tall city.

The defense here can be said to have been achieved to the extreme, compared with the undefended cities that passed along the way, the imperial capital at this time is like a great wall of steel.

"Order the army to camp for the time being!"

Looking at the defense of the imperial capital in front of them, Li Cunxiao and Guo Jia did not choose to attack the city immediately, but chose to rest for the time being, waiting for the Eagle Yang Army and the Golden Fire Cavalry to be in place.

The war of annihilation is about to break out.
