Chapter 12: The Moyun Army

As soon as he heard that it was a war, Zhou Yun's eyes were slightly condensed, and his brows were slightly furrowed, "Chen Aiqing, what kind of war is it?" ”

"Your Majesty, the western neighbor of my Dayun Dynasty, Chi Guo has gathered 20,000 soldiers and horses, and wants to invade the western border of my Dayun Dynasty."

"Twenty thousand?" When Zhou Yun heard this number, his brows tightened again as soon as he relaxed, this number is not big, and the big cloud country can be annihilated with a backhand, but the Chi country is not a small country, what is the point of such a small fight?

"Chen Aiqing, according to your news, when will they march into the army?"

"Back to Your Majesty, according to Weichen's spies, tonight at the earliest, before dawn tomorrow at the latest!"

When Zhou Yun heard the time, his heart tightened, as early as tonight, that was not to give him time to assemble the army.

"According to what everyone Aiqing has seen, what should be the verdict on this matter?" Old God Zhou Yun was sitting on the dragon chair, his eyes inspecting the hundred officials.

"Your Majesty, Weichen feels that Chi Guo is beyond his strength, hitting a stone with an egg, my Dayun can send an army casually, and you can annihilate the enemy!"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter is not trivial, Chi Guo is not a small country, and will never do anything to suffer, they suddenly attacked, and did not give us time to prepare, we must be cautious about it!"

"Your Majesty, my Dayun is on the western border, isn't there still the Moyun Army garrisoned by Mo Chen, the second son of the Mo family, legend has it that the Moyun Army is invincible, Your Majesty might as well let the Moyun Army go to defend against the enemy."

"Your Majesty, the Moyun Army led by Mo Chen only has 10,000 horses, and against the 20,000 horses of Shangchi Kingdom, I'm afraid it will be a loss!"

"Your Majesty, the Moyun Army is extremely strong, like a sharp blade of my big cloud, each with one enemy and ten, with him on the border, Your Majesty can rest assured!"

Zhou Yun listened to the words of several of the most representative ministers, and also had an idea in his heart, the invasion of the western border can be handed over to the Moyun army, and the vast majority of the army of the Great Cloud Country is still immovable, as long as Chi Guo has other moves, he can mobilize a huge amount of strength, aim at the spearhead, and attack head-on!

"Okay, what all Aiqing said is reasonable, I decided, order Mo Chen to lead his Moyun army to resist foreign enemies, and the rest of the army, stay put, as for the number, I believe in the strength and prestige of the Moyun army, but we must be fully prepared, if the Moyun army is defeated, the nearby army must rush to support and annihilate all the people who invade the Chi Kingdom!"

All Aiqing bowed down and said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise! ”

In a remote village in an inferior city on the west side of the Great Cloud Country----

Since Wang Li's family came to Su Jiu's house and was scared away, Su Jiu's family fell back into peace, although they didn't know who would help their family, but finally no one came to make noise.

Su Jiu still washes clothes, cooks, collects firewood, and chats with her family every day, which is different from before, that is, every day after dinner, she will sit on the steps at the door of the house, facing the sunset, playing with the three stones in her hands.

It was as if this ordinary stone was like a priceless treasure in her eyes.

At dusk that day, Su Jiu sat on the steps as always, facing the sunset that was not dazzling but still warm, and his little hands, which should have been as warm as jade but had become red and slightly rough due to daily work, tirelessly played with the three stones.

Bang~

A stone fell to the ground and made a dull sound, and at the moment when Su Jiu reached out to pick it up, she seemed to understand something, this stone was like someone who helped her when she was in difficulty, the stone would fall, and the person who helped her could not appear from time to time, relying on it again and again, she still had to rely on herself after all!

Su Jiu held the stone in her hand, and made up her mind that she must do something for the family, she can't go on like this every day, she is only fifteen years old, she must let her mother and brother not be bullied in the village! It will definitely make the family live a better life!

Su Jiu lingered in the courtyard for a long time, and finally, when the sunset emitted the last rays of light, a smile finally appeared on her clear little face, as if she had an idea......

In the house of Su Jiu's house, a family of three gathered around a small old wooden table to eat dinner, although it was just a bland and tasteless green vegetable soup with dry and bitter rice crackers, but the family ate with relish.

After Su Jiu took a sip of the vegetable soup and swallowed all the objects in his mouth, he looked at Mo Feng timidly, "Mother, I want to go to the back mountain tomorrow." ”

"Back Mountain? What are you doing in the back mountains? There are so many beasts in the back mountain, and the lions and tigers can see one in a while, which is too dangerous. Mo Feng shook his head and refused.

Su Jiu seemed to expect her mother to disagree, "Mother, I want to pick some fruit and sell it in the city to subsidize the family." ”

Mo Feng glanced at Su Jiu distressedly, but he didn't give in at all, "Go to the city?" You haven't been to the city since you were a child, do you know the road, do you know how to sell fruits, do you know what fruits people in the city like, didn't I say it, Xiaojiu, don't worry about the family, my mother has a way to make money! ”

Su Jiu sighed in her heart, she knew that her mother was to comfort her, if there was really a way to make money, would the family still be like this? However, she really couldn't answer the question that her mother just said, looking at her mother's firm eyes, Su Jiu was a little disappointed and wanted to find another way to subsidize the family.

"Mother, sister, it's all my fault, if it weren't for the family's money some time ago to treat me, the family wouldn't be like this now!" Su Mu hung his head reproachfully.

"Okay Xiaomu, isn't the family very good now, some eat and some live, don't blame you, look at you brothers and sisters, what's the matter, do you think my old lady can't hold up, and you still want to make money?" Mo Feng sighed and laughed, and put a few green vegetables in his bowl, one chopstick to Su Mu's bowl, and one chopstick to Su Jiu's bowl, "Okay, okay, eat quickly, eat quickly, sleep well after eating, tomorrow is a new day!" ”

Looking at the brother who blamed himself, and the mother who didn't seem to care, Su Jiu made up her mind that she must go to Houshan tomorrow, and then go to the city to sell the fruit, it is easy for no one in the family, and now she is the most idle!

The cold wind hunted, and in the early morning of the next day, when everyone was sleeping the deepest and the vigilance was most relaxed, the border of the Xicheng of the Great Cloud Kingdom was surging, and thousands of troops and horses were ambushed outside the Xicheng, separating Chi Guo and Da Yunguo on a mountain.

The leader was a handsome young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, with a tall posture like a pine, a strong momentum like the sun, and a pair of eyes as bright as cold stars under the sword eyebrows, looking around vigilantly.

At this time, he was wearing a dark corset with silver trim on the sleeves, and the trim was filled with lifelike five swords. There is a faint fragrance similar to that of blue musk.

The military generals of the Great Cloud Kingdom will be graded by the combination of meritorious service, killing the enemy, defending the country, combat achievements, prestige, and people's convincing, etc., and the performance of the grading is the number of swords on the cuffs of the battle suit.

Looking at the most swords in the Great Cloud Country, there are three people, the general of Zhenbei Zhennan and the president of the Mo Yun Army, that is, Mo Chen's father, the three of them are all at the same ninth level, and Mo Chen has reached the fifth rank general at a young age, which shows that when he reaches the age of the general at the edge of the town, it is very likely that he will exceed the ninth grade!

Outside the Xuanyi battle suit, there was a layer of silver armor, if it wasn't for the night, the armor would meet the daylight, and it would definitely be pleated and shining. The chest of the armor is inlaid with exquisite patterns, and a sonorous and powerful ink character in the center of the pattern is eye-catching and printed on it.

As in this table, who else can there be besides ink dust?

At this time, Mo Chen, crawling behind a boulder, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, revealing a vigilant gaze around the surroundings, today, he only received a holy decree from the palace thousands of miles away, the emperor ordered him to organize the Moyun army by himself, to resist the incoming Chi State soldiers and horses.

After Mochen took over the order, in just a few tens of minutes, he decided to set up an ambush and take the initiative to attack!

Chi Guo has 20,000 soldiers and horses, and his Moyun army only has 10,000, even if the Moyun army is brave and good at fighting, if he waits for the enemy to attack, even if he succeeds in resisting the enemy, he will inevitably suffer a lot of losses!

The only way is to send troops overnight, set up an ambush on the mountain on the road where the enemy invades in advance, take it by surprise, and take the initiative to attack, so as to minimize the loss, Mochen guessed, in order to save time and physical strength, plus not to startle the snake, the army of Chi Guo will not go from the mountain, and will definitely find another way, and this mountain is precisely the best battlefield for him to ambush!
