When a child encounters difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind is to rely on an adult.

When adults encounter difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind is relationships and power.

When a person encounters difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind is to rely on the group.

When a group encounters difficulties, the first thing that comes to mind is the background.

The background of the people should be the official, and the background of the official is the state, and who is the background of the country?

When a country is reduced to being confronted by neighboring countries, what will happen to it, Liu Xuan has never even seriously thought about this.

He never imagined that he would encounter such a situation.

"Your Majesty, Beizhou has fallen, and the guilty ministers deserve death." In the main hall, Zhang Shun of Beizhou should be waiting for the weather, an old man who is almost sixty years old, is prostrate on the ground at the moment, crying silently.

This is the news that just came today, the Beiyin army, with Fan Wei's son Fan Pheasant as the commander, led the army of tens of millions, crossed the border late at night, attacked Beizhou City at night, and Zhang Shun was defeated and fled to the palace in embarrassment, believing that within half a month, the Beiyin army would attack the palace city.

The day before yesterday, the 'old Da Luo' came with a war report, Nangong Xin led an army of eight million to attack the central part of the Modu, intending to recover the rivers and mountains of the past, and now the Modu has fallen, capturing several cities.

In addition to Zhang Shun, there were also Cai Lu, Lu Rong, Guan Zheng and other generals kneeling in the hall, and all the battle reports were defeated and fled.

Listening to this series of battle reports, the faces of the other ministers changed drastically, their expressions were tense, and their faces were desperate, and anyone could understand how dangerous the situation of Jiuyou was now, and they could even conclude that Jiuyou was really not far from destruction.

On the throne, Liu Xuan's expression was silent, looking at the ministers below and being silent, for a long time, he spoke, "All Aiqing should get up." ”

There was no anger in his tone, no look of blame, or rather, he had no appetite for blame and anger, and he didn't know how to get angry.

Liu Xuan knew that everyone had done their best, the four countries jointly attacked Jiuyou, which everyone did not expect, Liu Xuan had already mobilized the army of the whole country, and now there are only less than 20 million troops left, if the other four countries want to destroy him Jiuyou at all costs, all he can do is to resist to the end and fight to the end, and he can't think of any way to solve it now.

This newly stable and good rivers and mountains have been wasted like this, Liu Xuan's heart does not have a trace of regret, but more of his heart is like water, he feels that he has tried his best, since it is irretrievable, then all he can do now is how to make the other four countries pay a heavy price.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have the courage to admonish, for the sake of today's plan, you can move the capital to the west, and retreat as a defense, so that there is a glimmer of hope." At this time, a minister stepped forward and bowed.

Moving the capital to the 'Old Daluo' can indeed prolong the time of the destruction of the Nine Shadows, but what is the point of that, Nanshang and Donghua have no intention of negotiating peace at all, and Xiluo and Beiyin also sent envoys, but the news they got was refused.

The day before yesterday, Liu Xuan sent four killers to assassinate the commanders of Nanshang and Donghua respectively, and this also completely angered the two countries, which was expected by Liu Xuan, but it was also unexpected.

Liu Xuan still can't figure out how to provoke the determination of the other four countries to destroy the nine shadows, could it be that they guessed the future of Liu Xuan's desire to destroy the other four countries one by one?

Looking at the helpless ministers below, Liu Xuan didn't even bother to say anything, just let's die, let's die together, now Liu Xuan's only thought is how to keep his concubines, it would be better to escape from Jiuyou safely.

"Your Majesty." And at this moment, a thin Confucian stood on the side, about fifty years old, with an old face, Liu Xuan looked at him, who else could it be if it wasn't Prime Minister Li De.

Since Liu Xuan took the Da Luo Jiangshan, Li De took the initiative to let go of most of the rights, and no longer interfered with Liu Xuan, in his heart, the current emperor has great ambitions, everything is developing in a good direction, he is also time to retire, and he has great confidence in the emperor, and his daughter, Queen Li Yuelian has gotten along well with Liu Xuan for so many years, and also has a daughter.

Who would have thought that the other four countries have invaded Jiuyou, which is in its prime, and in less than a year, it has become such a situation, which makes the prime minister of the current dynasty how willing, he can't watch Jiuyou fall like this, and he doesn't want to see that the current emperor will become the last emperor of Jiuyou.

Liu Xuan looked at the vicissitudes of life below, over the years, Li De has made a great contribution to Jiuyou, and all the good suggestions of other ministers have also been fully supported, and there is no posture of working against the emperor anymore.

In fact, three years ago, Li De had the intention of retiring, and he also talked with Liu Xuan all night, and I still remember that at that time, when Liu Xuan asked him who was the most suitable for the next prime minister, the person recommended by Li De was the same as Liu Xuan thought, all of them were Ji Fang.

Ji Fang has extraordinary talent in both governing the country and leading the army, and he is humble and polite, respects his elders, and dares to speak out, which is a material for being a prime minister.

I saw Li De step forward and say, "Weichen secretly sent someone to the Bess Empire half a year ago. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and Liu Xuan also frowned, the Bess Empire, one of the powerful countries in distant foreign countries, is located in the extreme north, passing through the Great Mongolian Country, which is the territory of the Beth Empire, which is equivalent to the total territory of their five countries, including Dameng.

For hundreds of years, because of the obstacle of the Great Mongolian Kingdom, the Beth Empire has not had any contact and intersection with them, but the strength of the Beth Empire is rumored to this day.

The Beth Empire has a population of nearly two billion, each is not afraid of the cold, the people are tall and the horses are big, and the army is domesticated by all kinds of beasts, and the Great Mongolian Kingdom has sent 500,000 troops to cross the border to provoke, but the Beth Empire has 10 million troops to slaughter half of the Great Meng, and because there is a natural barrier desert between the Great Meng and the Bes, it finally gave up at will to continue the conquest, so far, the Great Mongolia has never crossed the move again.

This matter spread to the countries of the Nine Shadows, and naturally became a legend, the power of the Beth Empire is almost unmatched, and it is rich in products, the population is large but not crowded, and it is extremely powerful with wild beasts.

"The emperor of the Beth Empire summoned the envoy of the Nine Shadows, and was extremely interested in artillery, and the old minister dared to send troops to support the Nine Shadows in the name of marriage, hoping that the Beth Empire could send troops to support the Nine Shadows, and recently got the news that the emperor of the Bass Empire is willing to protect the Nine Shadows." Li De said this slowly, which gave everyone hope.

Liu Xuan looked stunned, frowned slightly, pondered for a long time, and asked, "Which princess is the marriage promised by Aiqing?" ”

"The Third Princess."

Hearing this, Liu Yi below looked stunned
