The city of Qule was captured by the Wei army, and the news soon spread to the city of Miwang. The ministers of military affairs who were arguing about whether to reinforce Qule were all stunned on the spot, as if they had been stuffed with a dead chicken.

"This, how is this possible? Only yesterday did it be reported that the Wei army had just arrived under the city of Qule Wang, how could it be that in less than a day, the royal city was actually breached! No matter how strong the Wei army is, it is impossible to take the Qule Royal City, which is not weakly defended, in less than a day! ”

After the 36 countries of the Western Regions surrendered to the Great Wei, the minister of ceremonies, the prime minister in charge of military logistics, became a dispensable position, so soon after, he was appointed as the minister of ceremonies in charge of foreign affairs and ceremonies.

The ministers couldn't help but talk about it, and many began to question the veracity of this news.

Seeing this, the king sitting on the throne couldn't help but ask the old prime minister's opinion, "Old prime minister, I don't know what you think?" ”

The people who were talking quieted down and looked at the old prime minister.

The old prime minister thought for a moment and said, "This matter is not impossible! The Wei army is powerful, the king must know better than the minister!

The king of Mi frowned and nodded, and analyzed: "That's right! However, it is also possible that the Wei people spread rumors! Now it's important to find out the truth of the message! At the same time, strengthen your precautions! Miyan! ”

"In!" Mi Yan, the chief general of the country, made a promise.

"How's the Nationalist Army recruiting?" The king of Mi asked anxiously, he couldn't help but be anxious! Wei Junbingfeng had already made him feel a biting chill in this early summer weather!

"Back to the king, less than 30,000 people have been recruited!

The king of Mi couldn't help frowning. Unhappily, he asked, "Didn't this king ask you to recruit with all your might?" How is there only so much? ”

Mi Yan hurriedly replied: "The king is angry! Rong Cha is in love! ”

The King of Mi nodded, "Say it! ”

"First, there is the issue of armor. Due to the previous attempt to prevent us from being discovered by the Wei people, we can only cast in secret. At present, there is only enough armor in the armory to equip 20,000 people! The second is the problem of grain and grass, our army's grain and grass reserves are insufficient, if we rashly expand the army, there will undoubtedly be a drink to quench our thirst! After listening to Mi Yan's explanation, the king of Mi was silent for a long time, and finally sighed.

"It's the king who blames the general!" The king of Mi said apologetically.

Mi Yan couldn't help but kneel down in fear and clenched her fists and said, "The last general is terrified!"

"Alright, get up! Mi Yan, you immediately send all the scouts to reconnoiter the direction of the Mink Kingdom in the east and the direction of Qule in the south, you must be careful! In addition, all the civilian armies and the armies scattered around them will be transferred back to defend the royal capital! The king of Mi said.

Mi Yan promised and immediately withdrew from the main hall.

Scattered backwards. The king of Mi and the old prime minister were discussing in the apse.

"Old Prime Minister, looking at the current situation, I am not optimistic about moving forward!" The king of Mi Guo sighed, and the king of Mi at this time gave people a feeling of declining days.

The old prime minister sighed, nodded, and said, "The Great Wei Emperor personally led the army, and hundreds of thousands of troops have been pressed outside the Wusun Capital!" The purpose of the Great Wei Emperor's battle is only to destroy the country! ”

The king of Mi couldn't help but be startled, and subconsciously asked urgently, "Which country will be destroyed?" ”

"What other country could it be? Wusun has always surrendered on the surface, and secretly made ghosts. This time, he secretly trained more than 200,000 troops with the intention of getting rid of the Great Wei and even seizing the Western Regions! I think the ultimate goal of the Great Wei Emperor's battle is to completely destroy Wusun, a powerful country in the Western Regions for hundreds of years, so as to firmly control the entire Western Regions! ”

The king of Mi thought for a moment and asked, "Old Prime Minister, what do you mean?" Is it possible for us to survive this catastrophe? ”

The old prime minister smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I don't know!" ”

When the king heard this answer, he couldn't help but feel angry. However, he understood what the old prime minister meant, and the key to whether he could escape this catastrophe was not in Mi. And in the Great Wei, in the will of the Great Wei Emperor.

There was a moment of silence. The king of Mi sighed and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we can only resign ourselves to fate!" ”

Just when the king of Mi and the ministers were worried about the Wei army's attack on the Qule King City, the relevant news had been widely circulated in the Mi King City, and I don't know why the news spread so quickly! People were talking in the wine shops and teahouses, and an uneasy atmosphere hung over the castle.

The Li family was originally a big family in Jizhou, and then moved his family to the capital of Mi Wang because of the war in the Central Plains, and soon laid a world in Mi and even the countries of the Western Regions with their strong strength, and the cloth and tea they operated almost monopolized the countries of the Western Regions.

The headquarters of the Li family is in the Miwang Capital, and they have an inconspicuous mansion here, although this mansion does not have anything to pay attention to from the outside, but it covers a very large area.

"Father, the Wei army is coming!" A slender woman in a pale cyan dress rushed into the hall with an excited face.

At this time, in addition to his father, there were two middle-aged people in the hall, both of whom were uncles and uncles of the family.

When the woman saw the two family elders sitting on the left and right, she couldn't help but be stunned, showing a look of shame, and hurriedly greeted her: "Qingtong has seen two uncles!" ”

The older middle-aged man in a white robe on the left smiled, "Qingtong's niece doesn't need to be polite!" I can't imagine that I haven't seen it for a year, and the more beautiful it is! No wonder that stinky boy in my house keeps whispering about you in my ear! ”

Li Qingtong smiled unnaturally, of course she knew who the stinky boy in the middle-aged man's mouth was, but King Xiang had a dream, but the goddess had no intention.

Li Qingtong suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Didn't the king of Mi prohibit the activities of our chamber of commerce?" How could the two uncles come here? ”

The three of them exchanged a look, and Li Qingtong's father, Li Yi, said with a mocking smile: "There is only one lonely city left in Wusun, and it is surrounded by the Heavenly Army of the Great Wei King: and General Gan Ning has destroyed Pishan and Qule successively!" Now the king of Mi doesn't dare to do anything to us at all! ”

Li Qingtong pondered and asked, "Father, has the envoy of the king of Mi Kingdom come?" ”

Li Yi nodded, "I just came!" Listening to what he meant, the king of Mi might ask our chamber of commerce to act as an intermediary in the negotiations with Great Wei! ”

Li Qingtong couldn't help but snort coldly: "Hmph, he has a good idea!" Father, we should get in touch with the Great Wei side first, and at the same time make some preparations for the smooth entry of the Great Wei into Mi, so as to preserve the foundation of our Li family in Mi, and prepare for the return of the Central Plains after Mao! I have heard that those little-known families have relied on the westward expansion of the Wei army to make business far west, and these families have also become a decisive force in the business community of the Central Plains! ”

In the end, Li Qingtong couldn't help but show a look of excitement and yearning, although Li Qingtong was born in everyone, he didn't dare to be interested in the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he had a soft spot for business that has always been looked down upon by everyone.
