The two of them also listened to Jia Ke's instructions to Xiao Yue just now and understood that Jia Ke was worried about the ambush in the other party, so they surrendered together.

"Rest assured, my lord, we will definitely follow the order, and we will not act recklessly."

Jia Ke was relieved to hand over the arrow to them.

Then the army was activated, and hundreds of thousands of horses marched to the south.

Along the way, he was really expected by Jia Ke, and Ruan Zhengyu also understood the difference in strength between himself and Jia Ke after the battle with Jia Ke.

This time, he also let go of the pride in his heart, and after concentrating 300,000 horses, he saw that these people were all newly recruited new troops, although they had undergone some training, but they were not worth mentioning compared to the previous elite soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time.

Therefore, Ruan Zhengyu convened all the civil and military forces several times to discuss how to deal with the Central Plains army.

Originally, the 300,000 horses in the Central Plains alone were enough to give them a headache, and now he had hundreds of thousands of original Annan elite soldiers who had surrendered, and these people added up to more than 50 thousand.

Now that the enemy has an absolute advantage in both quality and quantity, how can this battle be fought?

And among these people, some of them even have other thoughts in their hearts, they are all nobles, and this country belongs to the Ruan family, even if they fall, they will only lose some fame and money.

Because of this thought, many people began to advise Ruan Zhengyu to send an envoy to Jia Ke's military camp to present a surrender table to Jia Ke.

Although Ruan Zhengyu was sitting on the throne at this time, he had never felt so lonely.

He was angry at the ministers' suggestion that he surrender, but he didn't show it on his face.

He knew that this was the common voice of the ministers below, although he could suppress it for a while, but if these ministers were forced to be in a hurry, he might not be able to become the king.

Ruan Zhengyu only now feels the taste of losing his right-hand man, and after Li Guangqing is gone, there will be no one available in the court.

Ruan Zhengyu thought about it and remembered the Shenwu general Ruan Tiande, this person was resourceful, and some time ago, before he set out on the expedition, he said ominous words, and he was put in prison.

Although Ruan Tiande has a lot of stinky problems, as a descendant of the royal family, he is still loyal to the court.

Ruan Zhengyu thought about it and talked to this person, if he really had a way to turn the tide, he wouldn't mind giving him the right.

After Ruan Zhengyu dispersed the court meeting, he personally brought his own soldiers to the prison.

When Ruan Zhengyu came to the place where Ruan Tiande was being held, he saw that the old general was sitting in the cell, writing and drawing on the ground with a wooden stick, and he didn't realize that Ruan Zhengyu had arrived outside.

The cell boss next to him was a little annoyed when he saw Ruan Tiande like this, and wanted to go over to remind him.

But before the cell boss could act, he was stopped by Ruan Zhengyu, he quietly opened the key on the cell, and then pushed the door in and came to Ruan Zhengyu's back, he wanted to see what this veteran was doing.

As a result, when he looked behind him, it turned out that Ruan Tiande had drawn a map of the border between the Celestial Empire and the Kingdom of Annam, and was drawing there by Bibi, which was simulating the battle between the two sides.

Ruan Zhengyu watched Ruan Tiande keep placing all kinds of stones and grass roots, those stones were getting fewer and fewer, and they kept retreating to the south, and those grass roots were more and more, and they kept putting pressure on the south, and they were in Thang Long Mansion.

When Ruan Zhengyu saw this situation, he couldn't help but indulge in it, and now he couldn't help shouting: "The matter has come to this, what can I do?" ”

This shout woke Ruan Tiande up, and when he looked back, he only saw King Annam, and Ruan Zhengyu was standing behind him, his face full of anxiety.

When Ruan Tiande saw the king coming, he immediately turned over and knelt on the ground, "Sinner Ruan Tiande, knock on the king Chitose." ”

Ruan Zhengyu also came to his senses, he hurriedly helped Ruan Tiande up, and then patted him on the shoulder and said with emotion: "I didn't listen to the old general's words at the beginning, but now it's too late to regret it." ”

Ruan Tiande was also very emotional when he heard this, but he had already figured things out when he was in prison during this time.

Even if Annan is a vassal to Jia Ke, I'm afraid Jia Ke won't stop there.

"The king doesn't have to say that, he has been in prison for a while and thinks about it, the king's judgment is still right, the people of the Central Plains are eyeing me Annan, this time Jia Ke led the army south, not only to subdue us, I am afraid that he wants to seize our country."

Ruan Zhengyu only felt that he had met a bosom friend when he heard this, and now those civil and military ministers in the court are blaming him for repeatedly violating the borders of the Celestial Empire, which provoked the anger of the Celestial Empire and led a large army to conquer.

However, these people didn't think about it, if they hadn't led the troops several times and invaded the Celestial Empire and obtained a lot of grain and grass materials, how could they have the financial resources to dominate the southeast.

You must know that among these small southern countries, the land of Annan is not the most extensive, and it is with the money and population obtained from his several invasions of the Celestial Empire that he can declare war like other small countries, and this has become a hegemon in the south.

Ruan Zhengyu helped Ruan Tiande to sit in the cell on the spot, and then arched his hand to Ruan Tiande and said: "Old general, now almost all of my hundreds of thousands of gold soldiers in Annan have been captured by the Central Plains, and now they have become Jia Ke's accomplices, although they have gathered another 300,000 horses in Shenglong Mansion, but these people are all recruits who have just enlisted in the army, I am afraid that they are not enough to hold on to the Central Plains, I don't know what the old general's good plan is." ”

After Ruan Tiande heard this, his face became gloomy, he was closed in the cell, and he didn't expect the situation to be so bad.

In Ruan Tiande's heart, he thought that even if Ruan Zhengyu led his soldiers and horses to defeat the proud soldiers of the Central Plains, he would be able to keep most of the army retreating to Thang Long Mansion.

But what he didn't expect was that hundreds of thousands of horses were not only wiped out, but also surrendered to the Central Plains.

Under the circumstances of this situation, the situation in Annan is now even more dangerous.

Ruan Tiande stood up, looked at the sky outside the cell and thought for a long time, then gritted his teeth, turned around again, and walked to Ruan Zhengyu's side.

"King, the current situation is as dangerous as an egg, with him and our recruits, we can't resist Jia Ke no matter what, and we can't win without a trick."

When Ruan Zhengyu heard Ruan Tiande say this, he knew that he had a way, so he arched his hand and said: "If the general has anything to say, just advise, this king is disrespectful." ”

Ruan Tiande didn't have any scruples when he arrived here, "King, seeing that the enemy is strong and I am weak now, we must not fight a decisive battle with the enemy, we should hold on to the enemy for a long time, and wait until the enemy's food is exhausted and retreat naturally." ”

Ruan Zhengyu also meant this in his heart, but he was not sure that he would hold on to the army of the Central Plains Celestial Empire for a long time, so he said sadly: "The Central Plains army is not only brave and good at fighting, but also well-armored, and has a lot of siege weapons. ”

Ruan Tiande didn't have any rebuttal when he heard this, but said: "Thang Long Mansion is a dead land, and there are plains on all sides of Thang Long Mansion, which can be said to be easy to attack and difficult to defend. ”

When Ruan Zhengyu heard this, he felt a surge of anger welling up from his chest, what kind of idea did Ruan Tiande come up with, this is to throw away all the ancestral inheritance.

You must know that the successive dynasties of the Annam Kingdom have taken Thang Long Mansion as the foundation, because the terrain here is flat, the water conservancy is abundant, and the population is dense, once it occupies this place, there is no worry about food and grass soldiers.

Therefore, Thang Long Mansion is not only a battleground for Annam's soldiers, but also has a very important significance, if Thang Long Mansion is lost, then how can the princes of Annam be able to obey him and obey his dispatch?

Ruan Tiande also saw the anger on Ruan Zhengyu's face, but he ignored it completely, and continued: "After abandoning the Thang Long Mansion, let's continue to evacuate to the south, as the battle line stretches, Jia Ke's route to transport grain and grass is getting longer and longer, and then we will send elite troops to harass constantly, so that the Central Plains troops will not be able to receive grain and grass, and they will have to retreat after a long time. ”

After Ruan Zhengyu listened, his face was cloudy, and it was a little difficult for everyone to accept that he wanted to throw away the capital Shenglong Mansion, after all, this Shenglong Mansion was not worse than those provincial capitals in the Central Plains under the construction of several generations of them.

If once this place is abandoned and goes to the south, those nobles in the south will not be so honest when they see that they are weak.

"Old general, the situation is complicated now, I have Thang Long Mansion, and those nobles in the south can be honest, but if I lose this foundation, those people in the south will definitely make trouble, and I am afraid that I will be out of control by the enemy at that time."

When Ruan Tiande heard this, his eyes showed sadness, "King, now is not the time to worry about this, my Annan has reached the time of destroying the country and destroying the species, even if my Ruan clan is wiped out from this clan, it is natural to leave hope for the descendants of Annan." ”

When Ruan Zhengyu heard this, he understood what Ruan Tiande meant, this was to sacrifice the Ruan family and protect the stability of the entire country in Annam.

Ruan Zhengyu does not have such noble sentiments, as long as he preserves the glory and wealth of his Ruan family in his heart, the country of Annan is nothing.

If it is necessary, it is a good way to sacrifice the entire Annan to protect the Ruan clan for a long time.

Ruan Zhengyu is very disappointed in this general now, originally Ruan Zhengyu wanted to let this old general go out of the mountain to help the Ruan clan tide over the difficulties, but he didn't expect that he would want to sacrifice the Ruan clan, how could this be.

So Ruan Zhengyu stood up again with an expressionless face and said to Ruan Tiande: "The old general will continue to recuperate in this prison, and this king will have business to deal with when he goes back." ”

After Ruan Zhengyu finished speaking, he turned around and left the cell.

Ruan Tiande looked at Ruan Zhengyu and walked away without looking back, so he knew that the general trend was going, so he shouted sadly: "Annan is dead, ancestors and ancestors, have you seen it?" ”

Ruan Zhengyu had just come to the old door, and when he heard this, he immediately became angry.
