Episode 25 Chapter 5
"In the history books, the fierce lion of the Demon Kingdom pounced on Valen at first, and captured Valen with lightning speed, and then it rushed into the southeastern hinterland of the Zichuan family, and ate the jīng Rui troops commanded by the Zichuan family's defense chief Sterling, and then it pounced on Dì Dū with its bloody claws, but there, after being attacked by DìDū's guards, it actually roared and retreated. It wandered like a mad beast on the banks of the Vigne, suddenly turned northwest from Dì Dū, pounced on the wind and frost, and killed itself.
And in the writings of historians, it seems that only human struggle is heroic, as if we Seneans are monsters of steel, who do not shed blood, do not freeze or starve, and therefore our great achievements are insignificant. As human beings often say, the victors are writing history, but while they are praising their barely won victory with overwhelming gorgeous rhetorical poetry, human beings are unconsciously praising us: with less than 900,000 Protoss warriors, holding the most rudimentary handmade weapons, we have fought against nearly three million human soldiers before and after the union of Zichuan and Liufeng, not including the 500,000 stupid half-orc soldiers who were shamelessly bewitched by Zichuan Xiu, Not to mention the terrifying population of 300 million behind them and the amazing power of industrial production, and as a result, we almost won this battle for hegemony that swept the entire continent!
If it weren't for some fortuitous events, if it weren't for the hesitation and mutiny of the auxiliary forces, if it weren't for the fact that we happened to encounter the most outstanding generals in the history of the Zichuan family and the Liufeng family, the outcome of this war would have been different!
If Prince Caton's move to assemble the last reserve was brought forward by one day, the victory in the Battle of Bataan would have been rewritten.
If it weren't for the sudden dispatch of troops, in June 784, after General Yerma conquered Danya, the army of the Zichuan family, which had been knocked out of the command center, would have completely collapsed.
If it weren't for the greedy and stupid actions of Meng Khan in the Battle of Dì Dū, our army would never have lost such a large number of valuable troops in the trap of Dilin, and 300,000 of the most skilled and strongest soldiers were buried in the sea of fire of Dì Dū, so that the subsequent battle was affected, and the edge of our army's attack was greatly weakened.
In June 784, we were infinitely close to victory. Your Majesty's strong palm is only as thin as a piece of paper from the Goddess of Victory... ”
"General," the soldiers came in from outside the door, interrupting Yun Qianxue's writing. He said respectfully, "Your Majesty has summoned you. ”
"Got it." Yun Qianxue raised her head from the desk, carefully closed the scroll, and carefully tied it with a rope. The soldiers looked at Yun Qianxue in puzzlement, he didn't understand, the army of humans was approaching, how could the prince of the kingdom still have such time to write articles? With this kung fu, it is better to go to Cāo to train soldiers and horses to prepare for a decisive battle with humans.
Even Yun Qianxue herself didn't know why she had such a strong desire to record the war she had just passed. Or have you realized that the Senea are running out of time and must hurry up and leave something in history?
"Where is Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty is waiting for you in the palace."
Since Cardin ascended the throne, Yun Qianxue and his wife have moved into the palace to live. Yun Qianxue always felt that compared to this cold and solemn palace, the original princess's mansion seemed to be more comfortable to live in.
Yun Qianxue walked out of the door, it was rì set, the light of the setting sun shone on the black sè Kashan marble pillar, and the pillar shone with black sè under the light. In front of the wall carved with jīng reliefs, there is no end in the long corridor, and every five steps stands a solemn sword-wielding guard.
When walking through the corridor, the guards solemnly saluted Yun Qianxue, and Yun Qianxue also returned the salute with a serious expression. Since Cardin's ascension to the throne, the new palace guard regiment was formed by the original Yulin Army, an army composed entirely of the sons of Senean nobles, who were brought out by Yun Qianxue and served as palace guards.
Undoubtedly, the soldiers of the Yulin Army were the jīng rui of the kingdom, they jīng were strong, loyal and brave. But looking at them, Yun Qianxue always couldn't help but think that the place where they were standing originally belonged to some other soldiers, those troops composed of all giants who were more than two meters tall, and the soul of the last cry and shout of the Royal Guards Brigade still lingered in the wilderness on the outskirts of Bataan.
Yes, it's over, both the Guards Brigade and the mighty empire of the past have come to an end like the setting sun.
Walking past the rows of huge black columns, under the tall dome of the doorway, he stopped, looking at the lifelike huge lion carved above his head, Yun Qianxue's heart felt sad. He straightened his clothes and strode in with the guards.
In the palace at dusk, he saw Cardin at first glance, his wife sitting on a huge black jade throne with a calm face. Compared to the hard and cold throne, her slender and small figure seemed so incongruous.
The new governor of the kingdom, the Marquis of Amu, was whispering something to her, and several generals stood behind her, while the nobles and ministers stood on either side. At a glance, Yun Qianxue saw the Minister of the Interior, the Marquis of Osru, the Governor of the Eastern Great Wilderness, the Marquis of Verna, and others. The civil ministers and military generals present here are all important figures of the Senean ethnic group.
Hearing the footsteps of Yun Qianxue coming in, Cardin raised his head, and the generals turned their heads one after another.
"Weichen see Your Majesty!"
Although the two were husband and wife, in front of the other courtiers, just like the former emperor Carter, Yun Qianxue knelt down on one knee and bowed her head respectfully.
Cardin nodded to Yun Qianxue: "Yu Linqing is flat." Amuqing has just returned from the front line, and there is the latest military information, Yu Linqing, you can also listen to it. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. Sir, where has the Zichuan Army advanced? ”
In front of the Demon God Emperor, Amuda nodded to Yun Qianxue and said hello: "Back to Your Majesty and His Royal Highness, the human army has arrived at Vaenstad and is stationed there. Our emissaries to the Yakun were also sent back. Yagomi has succumbed to humanity. ”
Yun Qianxue and Cardin glanced at each other, and they both saw the disappointment in each other's eyes. The Akun were the last barrier for the Seneans, and Cardin had high hopes for Agomi. Although Yagomi had also betrayed the Demon God Emperor Carter's people, he was very proud and had a strong sense of protoss supremacy. Cardin had expected him to side with the Seneans out of hatred of humanity, but now it seemed that Agomi, though proud, was not so arrogant as to lose his mind. After only one battle with humans, he immediately realized the huge gap in strength between the two sides and obediently surrendered.
Yagomi succumbed, and the last of Senea's allies were lost, leaving them alone.
"Sir, is the spy rewarded? What is the strength of human beings? ”
"Your Royal Highness, the human army is at its peak! According to the rumors, this time the human race marched on foot and on horse, with more than 400,000 soldiers and horses, and we saw with our own eyes a number of divisions and regiments, whose jīng sharp and strong can be called unparalleled in the world. In addition, there are rumors that the human race carried a lot of heavy equipment in this march, they carried it in large carriages, the convoy was guarded by cavalry, and the convoy was parked and it was strictly forbidden for our gods to approach, and once they approached the forbidden area, the guards immediately released arrows to kill, without prior notice. We estimate that the wagons were most likely carrying long-range weapons such as crossbows and catapults that we had encountered in Dì Dū.
At present, we have discovered the following troop numbers of the enemy: the First Army of the Southeast Cavalry, the First Division of the Southeast Ironclad Cavalry, the Second Division of the Southeast Ironclad Cavalry, the Jiashan Heavy Infantry Division, the Northwest Hussar Division, the Zhōng Yāng Army Undead Division, the Far East Xiuzi Battalion, the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Half-Orc Regiments of the Far East, the Dragonman Guards Regiment... ”
As Amu Da reported the number of troops one by one, Yun Qianxue couldn't help but sink down. He has fought countless battles with humans, and of course he knows what the aforementioned troop numbers mean.
"What are the current movements of the Expeditionary Force?"
"Ever since the human army entered Vaenstad, they had stopped there and did not continue their advance. Most likely, it was our deterrence tactics that worked. ”
When it was rumored that the human expeditionary force was attacking from the west, the Jǐng reserve of the Eastern Great Wilderness had bad news again: the barbarians showed signs of movement, and it was likely that there would be a black cháo! At that time, Yun Qianxue really had the heart to hang herself. I just came to power as an auxiliary minister, and all the bad luck happened!
Usually, although the barbarians are fierce, they all stay in their own territory to forage for food, unless the demons enter the Eastern Great Wilderness and invade their territory, they rarely cross the realm to take the initiative to attack the demons. Even if one or two cross the border occasionally, the border guards on the border can also deal with it.
But when it comes to the black cháo of the barbarians, that's another matter. During the Black Cháo, the barbarians became extremely aggressive and aggressive, rushing out of the Eastern Wilderness Grasslands in search of food, which was extremely terrifying. The black cháo usually lasts for six months to a year, spreading throughout the eastern kingdoms, where barbarians slaughter cities, towns, and creatures. After the black cháo, there is often only blue sky and black earth left.
In the canon, there are many records of the black cháo incident, in the past six hundred years, there have been thirty-two recorded black cháo, and the barbarians who invaded the kingdom ranged from thousands to tens of thousands, each time the entire tribe of the god clan mobilized to resist, and among the thirty-two explosions, twenty-five were successfully intercepted, and seven failed to intercept.
Needless to say, the interception failed, countless casualties were lost, and even if the interception was successful, the troops participating in the war would have to pay a heavy price, especially the border garrison that directly faced the rampaging barbarians on the front line, and it was common for the entire army to be annihilated.
What made the previous Demon God Emperors extremely depressed was that although there had been so many black cháo, the kingdom had not been able to explore the reason so far, why did those barbarians who were usually with the well water of the Protoss not violate the river water suddenly become so violent?
There was no warning beforehand, and the cause could not be found afterwards, and the cycle was completely irregular, sometimes for nearly a hundred years, sometimes three in a row over several years, and there was no way to guard against it. Over the past hundred years, the scholars of the Protoss have put forward various theories and opinions, some believe that this is related to the lack of food in the Eastern Wilderness Grassland, some believe that it is related to the change of the cycle of the moon, and some believe that it is related to the breeding period of the barbarians.
His Majesty Carter, the former Demon God Emperor and the great, reigned for more than twenty years. During his tenure, the kingdom was strong and strong, and the kingdom at that time had enough strength to repel any attack, but at that time, the barbarians did not move in the slightest. It's just that Cardin has just taken office, and the kingdom has just experienced a catastrophe of defeat, but the damned barbarians are going to make trouble at this time!
After hearing the urgent report of the black cháo sign from the garrison of the Eastern Great Wilderness Border, Yun Qianxue was so shocked that her pen fell. Now, it's too late to resist humans, so how can there be extra troops to fight and consume those barbaric monsters?
However, the newly appointed Demon God Emperor was shocked. Cardin made a decision on the same day: the border garrison completely withdrew to the Demon God Castle and abandoned the border line of the Eastern Great Wilderness. At the same time, she ordered the Senean settlements in the eastern kingdom to shrink on all fronts, abandon towns and small towns, and shrink the inhabitants and Jǐng reserves stationed in various places to several large cities with strong city defenses, such as the Demon God Fort, Vana, Nista, and Calais, to clear the fields with strong walls, collect grain and grass, and prepare for a long-term siege.
"Deterrence tactics"? Yun Qianxue smiled bitterly, this method of hiding in the city when she saw that she couldn't beat it should be called "ostrich tactics" is more appropriate. According to Cardin's idea, it is best for the expeditionary force that came to attack the Demon God Castle to encounter the black cháo of the barbarians, and the two sides will kill each other and die together, which is the best ending.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is very serious!" Looking at the Senean high-level people present, Cardin said slowly: "Caught between the human expeditionary force and the barbarians, all the races of the Protoss have abandoned us, and we will face a difficult battle. Both sides are powerful, but they are not coordinated, and the only chance we have to be rescued is to find a glimmer of life from their contradictions! ”
At this moment, Cardin's newfound majesty and talent were not inferior to her father's, and even her tone and manner of speech were very similar to her father's. But alas, she is not the great Maje Carter after all, and what she said to her, the Senean executives present here reciprocated with silent indifference—indifferent and indifferent.
Not a single person spoke up.
Yun Qianxue sighed. Not all of the Senean nobles had participated in the Western Expedition, and as such, they had never experienced the hardships of the Western Expedition and retreating, and they would not have understood how much effort Cardin had made to salvage this precious remnant of the Senean army. At a time when everyone was desperate, it was this woman's tenacity and tenacity that saved the last army of the kingdom, and she brought hope to the people.
And these are not understood by the generals and nobles who stayed in the country, they only know that the previous emperor Carter took all the Jīng Rui troops of the Senea tribe to fight, and as a result, he was defeated and died, and the army was completely lost. Because of this unprecedented fiasco, the prestige of the Ka royal family has plummeted, and everyone praised the Demon God Emperor Carter for his wisdom and martial arts, but now there are whispers everywhere, rumors that the Demon God Emperor's decision-making mistakes have led to the defeat of the God Clan, and his crime is unforgivable.
The reason why Cardin was able to succeed to the throne smoothly was that in addition to Yun Qianxue mastering the last jīng sharp army of the kingdom, there was also a reason why everyone felt that at this point, there was not much to fight for in the position of the Demon God Emperor.
"Lord Osru, how are the food reserves?"
The Minister of the Interior, Marquis Osru, coughed dryly: "Weichen first wants to tell Your Majesty that the current food in the city is only enough to last for three months, and how to deal with the aftermath at that time, please prepare as soon as possible." ”
Cardin nodded, her face already floating with yīn vines, and she looked at the burly military general behind Amuda: "Lord Verna, how is the situation on the barbarians' side?" ”
Governor Verna, the commander of the garrison of the Eastern Great Wilderness, said: "According to the scouts, the first wave of barbarian attacks has approached the outskirts of the Divine Citadel, and there are about five hundred fierce wolves. To fight or avoid, how to deal with it, please Your Majesty as soon as possible. ”
Cardin asked calmly, "Vernaqing, you are stationed on the border of the Eastern Great Wilderness, and you are the one who is most familiar with those monsters. Judging by your experience, how big will the black cháo be this time? How many monsters will pounce on us from the sea of grass in the Eastern Wilderness? ”
Wechen was terrified. Wechen served as the governor of the Eastern Great Wilderness for twenty-five years, but during Wechen's tenure, the black cháo incident was encountered for the first time, and he really didn't have any experience. But from the canonical accounts, we can infer some clues:
In the fifth year of the Golden Khan, the kingdom encountered a black cháo, that disaster lasted a full year, at that time I remember that there were five batches before and after, a total of 20,000 barbarians wreaked havoc on our territory, they even crossed the Gobi to reach the Western Kingdom, which was the largest black cháo in the history of the gods.
And in the eleventh year of the Golden Khan, the kingdom encountered another black cháo, and the scale of the black cháo was much smaller, and the total number of barbarians crossing the border was less than two thousand, and they were intercepted by the border troops without even reinforcements, and the casualties were very small. ”
Vilna was so wordy that Yun Qianxue frowned: "Vernaqing, can you put it simply?" ”
"Yes. Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, as we all know, it is impossible to speculate on the time of the outbreak of the black cháo, but Wei Chen studied the divine code and found a rule, although the occurrence time of the black cháo is impossible to determine, but the scale of the black cháo can be speculated.
The size of the black cháo is often determined by the interval between two black cháo, and the longer the interval, the larger the size of the black cháo. There was a gap of forty-eight years between the black cháo of the fifth year of the Golden Khan and the last black cháo, so the scale of that black cháo was also unprecedentedly huge; The black cháo in the eleventh year of the Golden Khan and the time of the previous black cháo are only six years apart, so the scale is much smaller. ”
"So," Cardin quickly grasped what Verna meant, "the last time it has been since this is ... ”
"Wechen has checked the records, and the last time we had a black cháo outbreak was seventy-seven years ago. At that time, your great-great-grandfather, the terrible Redbeard, had just defeated the Winter Rì clan, and our Senean clan won the dark war and seized imperial power. Wechen is terrified, this time, the invading barbarians may exceed 100,000. ”
Silence, heavy pressure pressed on everyone's hearts like a piece of iron. 100,000 barbarians! Everyone knows what this means, the Senea are about to face the largest black cháo attack in history,
Cardin looked at everyone: "Everyone, my clan is facing a desperate situation, who has a good plan to save it?" ”
The Empress was silent in response. The military generals who filled the hall were pale, their eyes were dull, and fear rippled on the ministers like water waves. The nobles' faces turned pale, and their eyes showed despair: now, the human expeditionary force is in Vaenstad, and even the escape path has been blocked by humans!
Yun Qianxue looked at everyone one by one, and the ministers and nobles lowered their heads timidly, avoiding his gaze.
"So," Cardin said, standing up, "we'll retreat for now." We will discuss it again tomorrow when we go to court. ”
"Yes!" The ministers were relieved, replied unevenly, and withdrew.
Looking at the hurried backs of his courtiers, Cardin smiled wryly. She looked at Yun Qianxue: "Guess, how many people will come tomorrow?" One-half, or one-third? ”
"Your Majesty?"
"They want to run, I can see it."
Yun Qianxue was silent for a long time, and he sighed: "I can see it too." ”
How can you not see it? Interior Secretary Osru's eyes flickered, and he kept dodging and didn't dare to look at him, and he looked like he had a ghost in his heart. The barbarians did not take prisoners, and Osru was ready to surrender to the humans. What makes Yun Qianxue particularly sad is that among the ministers in the palace, there are still a lot of guys with Osru-like eyes.
"Is it possible? We have such a deep enmity with humans, in this case, the Zichuan family is still possible to contain them? They went to Vaenstad, most of them to kill themselves. ”
Yun Qianxue sighed: "What's the difference? Anyway, staying in the Demon God Castle is only a dead end, so let them go. Maybe you can really make a living. ”
Looking at Yun Qianxue, Cardin's gaze suddenly became very sharp: "Even you think we have no hope?" ”
Yun Qianxue didn't speak, he stared blankly at the sunset sun slowly fading at the gate of the palace, his eyes were full of sadness.
Cardin sighed, "Yes. We have recklessly waged an unjust war, and now it is time for us to reap the consequences. Now, our only hope is to make peace with humanity. ”
Yun Qianxue said lightly: "The Zichuan family is here, and Zichuan Xiu made a statement in Gram that the expeditionary force is coming for us, and the purpose is to destroy us." How can they make peace with us? ”
"If the commander of the expeditionary force is Stirling or Dilling, we really don't have much hope. But fortunately, it was the Zichuan Show who came, so we still have some hope. ”
"Your Majesty, I don't quite understand. Sterling, Dilin, and Zichuan Xiu are all first-class commanders, and their abilities are equal to each other. No matter who of them commands the army, it makes little difference to us. Could it be that Your Majesty, do you think that your friendship with Shikawa Xiu can affect him? ”
"Personal feelings are insignificant in the face of national interests." Cardin sighed lightly: "Although Zichuan Xiu let me go in private once, but that time he released just an insignificant princess. At that time, my two older brothers were still there, and my presence didn't seem important. And now, I am the symbol and hope of Senea, and I am the emperor of the clan, no matter how much Zichuan Xiu cares about the old feelings, he will not let me go anymore. ”
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
"Sterling is an orthodox soldier, his talent is limited to the military realm, he only knows that humanity has suffered a great deal of damage and they must take revenge. As for the political field and the country's long-term strategy, that is not in his consideration.
And Dilin was politically minded than Sterling, and he could see that it was in the interest of humanity to stay with us. But it's a pity that he is a very selfish person, and his interests are for him personally, not for the Zichuan family. Destroying us will bring him great merit and prestige, will help him gain an advantage in the political struggle at home, and besides, his personality is more brutal, and he likes to kill, even if not why, he is more like Seneans than we are!
Fortunately, it wasn't them, but Zichuan Xiu. He's the best person for us. Wooing Gotha Khan, suppressing Yagomi, and snubbing Mon Khan can be seen from his attitude towards various tribes, and he is consciously arranging the situation after the war in the kingdom, which shows that he has a long-term plan. Moreover, he is above board, taking into account the overall situation, as long as he realizes that the elimination of the Senea is harmful or unhelpful, he will consider it carefully, and we still have a glimmer of hope. ”
"But Your Majesty, Zichuan Xiu is only a forward commander, and he may not have the authority to sign an armistice agreement with us...
"Yes, we must give Zichuan Xiu a reason so that he can explain to the country, or rather, we must make sacrifices to appease the anger of humanity, otherwise the Zichuan family will not give up."
"Sacrifice? Sacrifice what? Yun Qianxue felt a palpitation, and the sudden fear weighed heavily on his heart, making him unable to breathe.
Princess Cardin—no, Empress Cardin—looked at her husband quietly, her eyes filled with infinite tenderness and nostalgia.
"Cloud, you should understand."
It was at this moment that time condensed. The distressed couple stared deeply, but tears welled up in their eyes. The sunset shone into the hall through the large pillars at the door, the smoke and dust flew silently in the golden sun, and the two sculptural figures looked at each other silently.
Yun Qianxue couldn't cry: "Let me go." I was the commander of the Western Expeditionary Army, a war criminal. I'll go, and humanity will be able to calm its wrath. ”
Cardin's tone was very gentle, as if she was coaxing the child's sister: "Yun, that's impossible. I am the Demon God Emperor, the only bloodline of His Majesty Carter, and if I don't come forward, human beings will never give up. Some of the responsibilities have been understood since the day I became the Demon God Emperor. Ayun, the Senea are going to ask you. Also, take care of our children. ”
Yun Qianxue's throat choked, he couldn't say anything, he could only walk up and embrace the emperor of the demon clan into his arms. He heard a soft cry, and felt that the person in his arms was so slender, so fragile, and it was distressing. Burying his face in his beloved wife's warm hair, Yun Qianxue's tears wet Cardin's face, rolling down his cheeks, falling, hot tears slowly wetting the entire black sè jade carved and lacquered Demon God Emperor Throne, and the diamond-inlaid pupils of the golden lion statue behind the seat were staring at them indifferently.
When Cardin raised her head again, her sad wife and mother, Kakusè, had left her, and a high-spirited spirit filled her body, and she re-established herself as the Supreme Demon God Emperor: "Yun, for the sake of the success of the peace talks, we must be prepared to sacrifice.
First, humanity must be assured in the most solemn way that the Senea are ready for a final showdown. We may not survive, but if the Zichuan family wants to destroy us, they must be prepared to sacrifice 300,000 young soldiers and three years of long-term war, even if they can win in the end, they will definitely lose their national strength, and they will not be able to compete with Liufeng and the Lin family for continental hegemony.
Second, to explain to humanity the threat of barbarians, who will sweep across the continent like locusts. Leave us behind, and we can act as the strongest line of defense for humanity against those obscurantist monsters!
Thirdly, the dominance of the Goang clan is not a blessing for mankind.
Fourth: The Senea have been defeated, and we are willing to surrender. We can hand over whoever humanity wants, and we can make any sacrifice, as long as the Senea can be preserved as a whole people.
Cloud, my thoughts can only go so far. Next, Senea will be handed over to you, and our children. Staring at her husband, Cardin said slowly.
Yun Qianxue shook her head: "Your Majesty, it hasn't reached this point yet, and it hasn't reached the point where you want to surrender without a fight!" We still have 80,000 troops, and with all the garrisons gathered from all over the country, we have 120,000 soldiers and horses! Our army occupies a fortified city and fights on its own soil, which has a great advantage! We are not without hope to repel the first round of human attack! ”
"And then?" Cardin asked rhetorically.
"And then..." The clouds are shallow and the snow is dazed.
"Then, in order to repel the human race, the jīng Zhuang of our clan was all lost, and his vitality was greatly damaged. Then we will be ravaged by the cruel savages, and we will be bled on our poor bodies one more time. Finally, when we are dying, Gotha Khan or Mon Khan will come and give us the final fatal blow.
Remember, Ayun, our most ferocious enemies are not humans or barbarians, but our kindred! There is still the possibility of peace with the human race, who have no ambition to occupy the land of the kingdom; The barbarians are very destructive, but they cannot destroy the entire Senean race; But once the Imperial War starts, it will definitely be a decisive battle between you and me, and it will kill our clan!
The Former Tatars are known as the second largest tribe in the kingdom, so what happened to them? Our defeat is definitely worse than that of the Tatars. The Tatars and Zichuan Xiu take them in, who will take us in? Making peace with humanity is the only way out for us. ”
"Your Majesty," Yun Qianxue interrupted Cardin loudly, his chest heaving, suppressing the excitement in his heart, tears kept flowing from his eyes: "What you said, that's the thoughts of politicians. But I am a soldier, and if I surrender without a fight, and surrender our emperor, then Senea might as well be completely exterminated, so that we can at least maintain our dignity and reunite with Your Majesty in the ground!
Do your best and fight to the death. If God does not bless me, death will be death, why suffer this humiliation! ”
"Yun Qing, don't be impulsive! You are not only a soldier, you are also a general of the country, you have to think about the whole tribe! ”
"No!" Yun Qianxue shook his head violently, his black hair was scattered in front of his forehead, he knelt down on one knee and said quickly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my Ren xìng." I have made a vow to protect you from harm in the slightest in this life. If I want to hand you over to humanity before my eyes, then I'd rather die! Yes, I'd rather die! What does the Senea mean to me without you? I should have died a long time ago, and I should have followed His Majesty after the Battle of Bataan! If I lose Your Majesty, if I lose you again, what is the point of my life?
Cardin, I'm not only a general of the kingdom, I'm still, I'm still your husband! Whether it's a barbarian or a Zichuan army, no one wants to hurt my wife! But I've got a breath of air, and no one wants to snatch you away! ”
Looking blankly at Yun Qianxue, Cardin's eyes gradually became misty. Not for the country, not for the race, he just wanted to defend the woman he loved the most. As a woman, being protected by a man so brutally and powerfully, that feeling is so beautiful! The plain and polite husband is so rough and heroic at the moment, and the strength and self-confidence of a mature man are fully revealed, full of the unique strong charm of men.
At this moment, he is so similar to the shadow that has been hidden in the deepest part of his heart!
It was as if something cold in his heart had melted, and Cardin felt his chest hot, hot, and his heart shook. Only then did she realize that it was not until this moment that she really fell in love with the person in front of her, her husband.
She didn't say anything, just opened her arms and hugged her husband tightly. Yun Qianxue hugged her with one hand, and he could feel that in the hug at this moment, his wife's heart that had been closed to him was completely open. Tears were streaming from both of them.
Why? Do you have to wait until the last moment of such an exhaustion of mountains and rivers to truly blend the hearts of two people?
"Urgent information, revelation... Yes! The sudden sound alarmed the most honorable couple of the kingdom in their arms, and they both turned their heads at the same time, only to see the head of the guard standing at the door of the palace with a red face, at a loss, and did not know where to advance.
"Wechen didn't see anything, Your Majesty, Wechen has retired...
Cardin and Yun Qianxue looked at each other and smiled slightly, she raised her head from Yun Qianxue's arms: "It's nothing." Say, what's the important information on the front? ”
"Yes, Wechen is frightened and disturbed. Your Majesty. The inner line we sent in the Goang clan sent back a report that there had been a major change in the Zichuan family's expeditionary force! ”
"A major change?" Both Yun Qianxue and Cardin's breath became rapid. Coincidentally, they had a common premonition: a major turning point was just around the corner!
"Reliable information: The Zichuan family changed generals on the spot, removed the military authority of the supreme commander of Zichuan Xiu, and appointed Sterling, the director of military affairs, to take over as the commander of the expeditionary force."
"What!" Yiyun Qianxue's composure was also stunned by the news: "How is this possible? Zichuan Xiu was withdrawn? Do you know why? ”
"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness, the inside line didn't report the reason. This may be the result of a power struggle within the Zichuan family, and it is not something he can reach. ”
"Understood. The new person is Raheem Sterling... But if Zichuan Xiu is not the commander, who will command the Far Eastern Army in the expeditionary force? Although Sterling is very prestigious, he may not be able to overpower the proud soldiers in the Far East... In this way, it is very likely that cracks will appear inside the originally monolithic human expeditionary force... This is a big opportunity for us! ”
Yun Qianxue thought quickly, thinking that there might be a halt within the human race due to infighting, and he couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in his heart. He looked at Cardin to discuss what to do with her, but found that his wife, who was known for her intelligence, had a bewildered face, and her gaze was unfocused, as if she were wandering in the clouds.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”
"Ahh
Yun Qianxue screamed twice, and Cardin came back to his senses. Touching her husband's inquiring gaze, Cardin blushed slightly, and turned her face a little weakly, just avoiding Yun Qianxue's gaze.
Yun Qianxue didn't pay attention to it, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, there has been a major change in the enemy situation.
