Chapter 390: King Chu's faint move

King Chu, this guy actually played sensational with me, although I am indeed very worried that the people of southern Xinjiang were invaded and slaughtered by the Fire Phoenix Empire, and I am also very worried about Ji Wuling and Ji Ling, it doesn't mean that I am a day worker.

Although my prisoner army is invincible in the world, it is really fatal to feed these gold-swallowing beasts, Su Ping just opened the salary of the prisoner army left behind not long ago, and the quality of life of our Yipinhou Mansion has dropped in an instant, and it is said that the taxes collected by the domain are almost empty, and we must cut back on food and clothing.

"Don't even think about those leased prisoner troops, your lease contract has been approved by the five empires!" The king of Chu sacrificed this trick, this is called attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son, and before the contract expires, he does not want to take the person away.

"But I haven't received a dime yet, and if you don't pay and don't keep the contract, I can cancel it completely!" I say.

"Who said I didn't give money? Father-in-law Wei Xian, haven't you delivered the rent of the prisoner army that this king asked you to send to the Yipinhou Mansion? The King of Chu shouted angrily.

"Lord Wang, it's the old slave who was negligent! You can receive it today! Wei Xian lowered his head when he spoke, I guess he was scolding his mother, the damned King of Chu never thought of paying before, and at this moment he asked me to help, and he had to let Wei Xian take the blame for the temporary payment.

"That's not enough money for a big war? The main force in southern Xinjiang is still the palace of the king of Chu, lord, should you express it? I rubbed my hands together.

The King of Chu rolled his eyes wildly, the Fire Phoenix Empire invaded, and there were originally many generals who would come to ask for battle.

However, somehow the news leaked, almost everyone in Beijing knew that the Fire Phoenix Empire had learned the heavy armor building technology of the White Tiger Empire, and the Fire Phoenix Empire was the source of heavy armor ore, so the war elephant that had made Fei Hong helpless was put on iron armor again.

Waiting for three or two elephants to rush into battle, hundreds or even thousands of people can be killed and trampled into mud without any power to fight back, and the Fire Phoenix Legion suddenly became rich, according to the news from Dongchang, at least hundreds of ironclad war elephants broke into the hinterland of Feihong.

Thirty-three cities in the Chu King's domain in southern Xinjiang have been breached, and the situation is precarious.

The generals who originally sought war died down one after another, and the generals were not afraid to go to the battlefield to fight hard, after all, the title of the prince was fought in blood and fire.

But if you know that you are going to die, and you still go to fight hard, what is the picture? Can the emperor still give titles to the dead? In the end, someone can win the ironclad war elephant to recover southern Xinjiang, and it is possible to be posthumously sealed, but what if future generations can't win?

I listened to Wei Xian on the way to the Taiji Palace, if the soldiers have no intention of seeking war, it will be troublesome, I am sure that the news of the ironclad war elephants in southern Xinjiang must be the king of Qin, the king of Jin, the king of Qi or the ghost they jointly engaged in.

This frightened the generals who wanted to make meritorious contributions, the generals didn't dare to fight hard, how could the little soldiers have the courage to resist the fire phoenix people? If the army does not resist, can you still count on those unarmed civilians to hold back the attack of the Iron Elephant Legion?

If the southern Xinjiang is overturned, the King of Qi and the Sailor in the east can still take refuge in the water, the King of Jin in the north can still enter the Xuanming Prairie, and the King of Qin in the west can still rely on the powerful light cavalry to shoot the fire phoenix cavalry and archers covering the war elephants, and no one will command the elephants, and this super killing weapon will be scrapped!

I'm afraid that now the other three princes of Zhenguo can't wait for the king of Chu to lose southern Xinjiang, so that the king of Chu is a sinner of Feihong, and naturally he can no longer be the prince regent, and without the support of the fief of the king of Chu in southern Xinjiang, the regent of the king of Chu is also a decoration, and no one will listen to him.

At this time, the king of Chu made a stupid move, and actually let the prince of Chu not resist, and took the initiative to give up many weakly defended cities, and concentrated his personnel and soldiers and horses in the relatively dangerous terrain to defend the city.

It is right to retreat to dangerous cities for defense, but other cities cannot completely fail to resist, even if it is symbolic resistance, the generals did not abandon their homeland, and the nobles still want to counterattack! In this way, the people and soldiers will have the confidence to defend their homes and the country!

King Qin also sacrificed the eight cities outside the gate at that time, but King Qin was not the regent at that time, he was not afraid of the attack of public opinion in the court, not to mention that the people of King Qin's domain trusted King Qin and believed that as long as his army arrived, he would be able to recover the country.

And this is indeed the case, and it took the king of Qin less than two months to recover the lost land.

The time is not right for the king of Chu to learn from the king of Qin at this time, he is the regent, the vice emperor of the empire, and this attitude will disappoint all the courtiers and generals.

The ministers will think, with a prince who does not resist, and the rescuers sent by the emperor, there is still hope! But with an emperor who does not resist, who else will send rescuers?

When the ministers didn't believe in the regent, they would start to contact the kings of Jin, Qin, and Qi to find a way back for themselves.

The original intention of the king of Chu was to preserve his strength, retain the regent throne of the king of Chu, and prepare for his ascension to the throne and emperor in the future.

But knowing the invincible nature of the ironclad war elephant, no one thought that the King of Chu had a chance to recover the land! If the land that has now fallen cannot be recovered in the short term, I am afraid that the king of Chu will meet the mutiny of the princes of the three major towns and kingdoms to force the palace to step down.

The king of Chu is now difficult to ride a tiger, so he will regard Su Yipin as a life-saving straw, he knows very well that Su Yipin is a patriotic person, and Su Yipin's refusal to abandon the people of the eight cities abandoned by the king of Qin is proof of this! What's more, Su Yipin also swore an oath to the heroic spirit of Emperor Sun, the god of war in this dynasty.

"The treasury has been empty after a series of wars, and this king can't give you more money and food support! I'll give you a gold medal that I'm here for! Both eastern and southern Xinjiang are the granaries of Kyoto, and there are many big salt merchants in southern Xinjiang! King Chu winked at me.

I'm also speechless, the gold medal that Ru Zhen came in person was originally a token I gave to the King of Chu to transfer troops to the palace, and now he has great power, so naturally he can't use it!

"With this gold medal, it's really easy to make money, but the relationships between those big salt merchants are intertwined, many of them have something to do with Kyoto, and even a lot of your Chu Wangfu's relationship, there are so many princes, and the prince also has a lot of hot eyes to get a piece of the pie, right? You're not going to hold me back, are you? I said.

"Southern Xinjiang is overturned, the empire is in danger, how can you manage so much? You don't have to use your iron hand! This king will definitely support it! "King Chu said domineeringly.

"Lord Wang, if you let the prince of Chu or other princes come forward in this matter, it will be much easier than me, right?" I say.

"The princes have a duty to guard the land, they are very busy!" King Chu said.

"Lord Wang, you might as well open the skylight and say something bright, are you afraid that your son will offend people? Anyway, my Su Yipin has a black face and a ruthless heart, and it doesn't matter if I offend someone and be retaliated and assassinated, right? I sneered.

"Su Yipin, this matter is considered sorry for you! Afterwards, I will let the Lord of Shangxian County be your maid to pay off your debts!" "The king of Chu is very reasonable.
