Chapter 465: Passive Sluggishness
After Emperor Jing learned that the 440,000 troops of Yiguo had invaded Jiguo, he immediately dispatched 100,000 troops to the northwest of Yasukuni to strictly prevent the invasion of Yiguo's army.
However, as soon as Emperor Jing reached the front line, the elders of the Shoryan Mansion and many people came to the front of the mansion and found Xi Yun, wanting to stop Emperor Jing's military operations.
An elder hammered his chest and shouted, "Mansion Master, the people are rumoring that Emperor Jing is sending troops to aid Jiguo, which is an irrational move." We in Yasukuni have never been involved in the wars of other countries, so you should hurry up to stop Emperor Yasukuni's belligerent behavior. ”
"Yes, the lord of the house, it is impossible for Yiguo to cross the Chilong River and invade from Ji to our Yasukuni, and Emperor Jing's deployment of troops is completely superfluous. Another elder shouted.
"Mansion Lord, you have to hurry up to stop Emperor Jing, our Yasukuni army must not be drawn to the territory of Ji to fight. One of the elders shouted hoarsely.
Others shouted together, "We are determined not to fight, we want our sons to come back from the front." ”
As soon as Xi Yun saw that so many people had gathered in front of the mansion to protest and ask her to go and stop Emperor Jing's military action, she said, "Please go back, I will go to the front line of the border and tell Emperor Jing what you think." ”
Xi Yun immediately came to the front line, saw Emperor Jing, conveyed the people's protests and demands to Emperor Jing, and then said: "Brother Jing, our people are used to being content with the status quo, and now the negative slack mood is high, you have to be cautious." ”
"Well, I will consider and respect the will of the people. If the army of Yiguo does not invade our territory, I will not take the initiative to attack. Emperor Jing assured.
Therefore, when Jiang Qi and Wei Yinghong returned to Yasukuni with great difficulty and informed Emperor Jing of their careful plans and arrangements with Xue He, Emperor Jing was indecisive at first, and finally denied it. Because their careful planning and deployment was to select a favorable terrain in the territory of Jiguo, so that Emperor Jing led the Yasukuni army to the territory of Jiguo, and the two sides attacked back and forth, completely annihilating the Yiguo army.
"Emperor Jing, we cannot afford to miss favorable terrain and opportunities because of the war-weariness of the people. Xue He, the national teacher of Jiguo, invites you to personally lead the army to the territory of Jiguo to jointly resist the Yiguo army, and our two armies will be flanked before and after, and the enemy of Yiguo will be completely annihilated, so as to ensure the security of our two countries. Jiang Qi repeatedly begged Emperor Jing.
"Jiang Qi, we can't go against the will of the people for the sake of favorable terrain and timing. Although your plan and deployment are very reasonable, I still cannot ignore the voice of the people and personally lead a large army into Jiguo. We can only stand by here to fight the invading enemy. "Emperor Jing's will is also unshakable.
So, Jiang Qi returned to Jiguo alone and told Xue He on the march about the anti-war protests in Yasukuni and Emperor Jingdi's decision.
As soon as Jiang Lan'er heard that such a situation was happening in Yasukuni, she immediately became indignant: "How can this be true, at a time when the great enemy is facing a great enemy, and the national crisis is at hand, there are still people fanning the flames and creating rumors, isn't this self-defeating? If it weren't for my father's martial arts skills, we don't know how many times we would have been invaded by other countries." This time, as they wished, they would simply let the Yi army enter the territory of Yasukuni, and that would be the only way. ”
"Lan'er, although Emperor Jing is strong in martial arts, he has never been able to deal with the people who are not willing to give generously. Jiang Qi felt helpless.
In this case, we can only move the battlefield to Yasukuni, but there are many difficulties for our army to continue to advance. Xue He said.
"That's right, if all of our army is overwhelmed by Yasukuni, what if the rest of the Yiguo army takes advantage of the situation to attack the ancient city of Yaya?" Jiang Lan'er was very worried.
"I think so, Xue Guoshi's army will stay here, this position can not only prevent the remnants of the Yiguo army in Jiguo from attacking the ancient city of Yeyan again, but also block the Yiguo deserters who have returned from the defeat of Yasukuni. Xia Yuqian suggested.
Jiang Qi said uneasily: "But if this is the case, our Yasukuni troops will not be enough to defeat the army of Yiguo." ”
"Maple Dust and I follow you to help you. Xia Yuqian said again.
Xue He immediately agreed, "Yuqian, Fengchen Gongzi, if the two of you go like this, you can be worth thousands of troops." Then, he said to Jiang Lan'er, "Lan'er, you can also go back to Yasukuni with them to fight." ”
Jiang Lan'er immediately replied, "I'd better stay here, it's enough to have them go." ”
Feng Chen hurriedly replied, "Strategist, then it's decided, you and Lan'er are stationed here, and Yuqian and I will go to Yasukuni with Jiang Qi to fight against the Divine Army." ”
In this way, Jiang Qi discussed with Xue He, Jiang Lan'er, Feng Chen and Xia Yuqian, and decided on a new deployment and placed the battlefield in Yasukuni.
After Xia Yuqian and Fengchen followed Jiang Qi to leave, Xue He immediately ordered the army to set up camp, and strictly deployed troops, always alerting the movements of the Yi army in the front and rear of the army.
After the deployment was completed, Xue He entered Jiang Lan'er's camp and saw that she was still sullen, so he comforted her and said, "Lan'er, the will of the people cannot be violated, Emperor Jing's arrangements are relatively thorough, Xia Yuqian and Fengchen went to help in the battle, and it was guaranteed that nothing would go wrong." ”
"Well, I believe in Xia Yuqian's ability, she is the one who is the pass, and she can't open it. However, without Xia Yuqian's help, then our Yasukuni would undoubtedly be overcome. Jiang Lan'er sighed.
"Isn't there Xia Yuqian, don't be sentimental, take a good rest, I'm afraid we still have a lot of tough battles to fight. Xue He comforted.
"Okay, you should rest early, we have been advancing all the way, you have been taking care of the front and back, it is very hard. Jiang Lan'er said with concern.
Xue He nodded at her, stopped talking, and finally turned around and left.
Jiang Qi, Xia Yuqian, and Feng Chen, the sword flying, soon came to the territory of Yasukuni. The arrival of Xia Yuqian and Fengchen made Emperor Jing and Xi Yun very happy, and they didn't wait for them to bow down and give their salutes, so they pulled them up to greet them warmly.
Especially Xi Yun, full of gratitude to Xia Yuqian, took Xia Yuqian's hand, and said excitedly, "Yuqian, Lan'er is only here today, thanks to your help." We can't repay you for your great kindness to Lan'er. ”
"Lord Xi, don't be so polite, it's my honor to be able to help Sister Lan'er. Xia Yuqian said sincerely.
Although Emperor Jing was infinitely grateful to Xia Yuqian, he saw that the three of them were very hard, so he said to Jiang Qi: "Jiang Qi, it is very hard for you to go back and forth again and again, while there is no war now, you and Fengchen Gongzi and Yuqian, go to the camp to eat first, and then take a good rest." ”
"Thank you Emperor Jing for your care!" Jiang Qi thanked Emperor Jing, and then led Xia Yuqian and Fengchen to rest.
After Xia Yuqian and Fengchen entered the camp, Xia Yuqian asked: "Yasukuni people are so anti-war, is it because the people are simple or cunning?"
Feng Chen was noncommittal, but said: "The Emperor Jing, Jiang Lan'er, Yin Gechuan, Wei Muxun and others we know are all high-spirited and extraordinary. It was only because Emperor Jing was benevolent and generous and never dictatorial that some narrow-minded and selfish people had an opportunity to take advantage of it. ”
