Chapter 171: The panicked Xia Emperor

Xiacheng, the capital of the Xia Dynasty in southern Yongzhou.

The news of the defeat of the Predator Legion instantly spread from the north of the Xia Dynasty to the capital in the center.

As a result, the general Xia Hua was temporarily deprived of his official position as a general by Emperor Xia, and entered Beijing to wait for Emperor Xia's arrangement.

In the court game, Xia Huang Xia Feng sat on the dragon chair, and there was a seat in front of the hall, and Xia Ren was on the seat, the brother of Xia Huang Xia Feng.

In addition to these two people, there are also Shan Huajie, the secretary of the military department, and the generals Xia Ming and Li Wei, whose status is equal to Xia Hua, but Xia Ming and Li Wei are not from the Xia Dynasty.

In the center of the main hall, Xia Hua was tied to the ground and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, General Xia Hua's guard is not good, please punish General Xia Hua to show your majesty." Xia Ming opened his mouth and said.

Xia Hua, the person of the clan, led the iron-blooded legion of the general, but the most powerful of their three major legions, but the lack of defeat to the Jiuyuan Dynasty had to make him angry, he really failed those good resources, and the disputes and grievances between the clan and their foreign ministers were big in themselves.

"Your Majesty, Weichen also thinks that General Xia Ming is right, Your Majesty should punish General Xia Hua." Seeing this, Li Wei naturally would not let Xia Hua go.

His status is no different from Xia Ming's.

"Xia Ming, Li Wei, Xia Hua will have a decision on how to deal with me, and now we are still discussing the affairs of the Nine Abyss Dynasty." Xia Huang Xia Feng sheltered this problem.

Although there are drawbacks in the clan, he knows very well that the current Xia Dynasty needs the clan to balance, otherwise it will be detrimental to the Xia Dynasty if the court is biased.

"Alas!" Xia Ming still wanted to step forward and say something, but unfortunately Xia Huang's attitude made him unable to speak.

"The Book of the Army!" Xia Huang saw that Xia Ming and Li Wei's reaction was quite good, at least they didn't cross the line.

"Wechen is here!" Shan Huajie, the secretary of the military department, immediately replied.

"How many defenders are there in the northern mountain county? How many soldiers and horses are still available at the moment? Emperor Xia asked.

At present, the most important thing is to make some layouts in the mountain county, otherwise the Jiuyuan Dynasty may go south and directly target the capital Xiacheng.

"Your Majesty, there are about 10,000 defenders in the mountain county, and less than 20,000 soldiers and horses are available in the whole country." Shan Huajie said.

"How can there be only that? I remember that the annual conscription, not to mention 100,000 conscriptions, but there are still 10,000 or 20,000, but how can it only be 20,000 in a few years? Emperor Xia asked.

Obviously, Emperor Xia didn't like it, just the number of conscripts he knew plus the number of soldiers and horses in the Xia Dynasty itself, it was definitely more than 20,000 spare soldiers and horses, but Shan Huajie couldn't make a false report.

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, Weichen is only responsible for the number of soldiers and horses, and Weichen is not responsible for the conscription." Shan Huajie knelt down directly and said.

As for the number of soldiers and horses, he is basically just counting, and the number that can be counted is only 20,000 in addition to the soldiers and horses in the hands of Xia Ming and Li Wei, and the other soldiers and horses don't know where they are at all, I'm afraid that only the number of soldiers and horses under Xia Ming and Li Wei is true, and the others are basically false, as for Xia Hua's iron-blooded army, it has long been gone.

"You're not responsible? So who's responsible? I remember that the conscription expenses cannot be used in the treasury without your permission. Xia Huang Xia Feng said angrily.

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, every year the conscription is participated by the major princes, but the specific number of conscriptions, Wechen doesn't know at all, the major princes take an order for Wechen to sign and agree, and Wechen has no choice." Shan Huajie told the truth.

He understood a lot, and it was these courtiers who suffered no matter what.

"Even then, what about this year? Could it be that they did it this year? Emperor Xia asked, he didn't remember any other prince who had such a right this year.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ascended the throne last year, and Your Majesty ordered a three-year exemption from military service, so there is no conscription." Shan Huajie said.

"Your Majesty, let's think about how to defend the land of the mountain county first." At this time, Xia Ren spoke.

"Brother Huang is right." Hearing this, Emperor Xia stayed for the time being, and then looked at Xia Hua who was kneeling, "General Xia Hua, I remember that the Jiuyuan Dynasty did not have such a strong strength, how did it destroy the Iron Blood Legion and the Scenic Army. ”

"Your Majesty, the Iron Blood Legion led by the last general met the Blue Wolf Iron Cavalry and the Nine Abyss Legion of the Nine Abyss Dynasty in the north, just saying that the Blue Wolf Iron Cavalry is stronger than the Iron Blood Legion, and all of them are equipped with a good horse, in addition, there are only sixty-five people in the Nine Abyss Legion, all of them are Innate Realm martial artists, and they kill people without blinking, our army is affected by the Nine Abyss Legion, and the combat power is greatly reduced." Xia Hua said, talking about the enemies he had encountered.

"Your Majesty, the last general and the wind and rain empire can't bear to conspire to seize the Sanchuan County of the Jiuyuan Dynasty, but the wind can't bear the scenery army encountered the White Tiger Legion of the Jiuyuan Dynasty and wiped it out, and the last general found out that the White Tiger Legion is all innate triple warriors, and the commander Xue Rengui is even more brave with ten thousand people." Xia Hua said again, maybe he should be lucky not to meet Xue Rengui, but it was unlucky.

"Hehe, how can I believe you?" Xia Feng obviously didn't believe it.

If this is the case, then the Wind and Rain Empire will not be able to defeat the Nine Abyss Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, when Lin Shan sent the Jiuyuan Dynasty back, he didn't tell the truth at all, and Lin Shan, the powerful strength of the Jiuyuan Dynasty, didn't tell the truth, when Emperor Jin was defeated by Emperor Yuan, Lu Jiuyuan didn't use the Jiuyuan Legion and the White Tiger Legion at all, except for half of the Blue Wolf Iron Cavalry, the others were the current city defense army of the Jiuyuan Dynasty, and the Blue Wolf Iron Cavalry at that time didn't have so many good horses at all." Xia Hua still said unwillingly.

"Brother Huang!" It was not unreasonable for Emperor Xia to hear what Xia Hua said, if he wanted to destroy the Landscape Army and the Iron Blood Army, he had to have enough strength.

"Your Majesty!" At this time, Xia Ren had already gotten up, and the seriousness of the matter had already made him not so calm, he looked at Xia Hua and asked, "Have you detected the tone of the Nine Abyss Dynasty?" ”

"Your Majesty, King Ren, when the last general was playing against Bai Qi, the commander of the Nine Abyss Army, he told the last general that Emperor Yuan said that the territory of the Nine Abyss Dynasty was too small, and there was no opportunity to make a move, and this time was the opportunity." The more Xia Hua spoke, the more overwhelmed he became, and now that he thought about it, it was terrifying, if this was the case, the Xia Dynasty would be in danger.

"Is that so?" Hearing this, Xia Ren was still relatively calm.

But others don't.

"Brother Huang has a good plan, the Xia Dynasty needs time now." Xia Feng said.

"Your Majesty, the best way at the moment is to act in three directions, send a reliable envoy to the Wind and Rain Empire to unite, send an envoy with Lin Shan's head to the Jiuyuan Dynasty to stabilize the Jiuyuan Dynasty, and General Xia Ming and General Li Wei will send half of the troops and horses to the mountain county from the east and south respectively." Xia Ren really deserves to be Xia Feng's first-class strategist, and his mind is as clear as ever in this situation.

"Quick, do what the royal brother says!" Xia Feng was not as calm as Xia Ren.

"Yes!"

Several people know the importance of the matter, which is related to the survival of the country.

"Wait, General Li Wei is the chief commander in the north, Xia Hua is the deputy commander, as for Xia Hua's crimes, we will wait for this crisis to be resolved." Xia Dynasty said suddenly.

It's just that what the entire Xia Dynasty court doesn't know is that the current Jiuyuan Dynasty didn't want to attack them at the first time, but was busy with other things.
