Chapter 794: The King and Kou 1
The southern border guarded by 400,000 soldiers is impregnable under the command of the Duke Qu Chi of the Dian Kingdom and the father and son of the south of the town.
Yes, impregnable.
What they have to do is just to close this frontier front, not to put the entire country of Western Shu into the territory of Donglu. This was the absolute superiority of the Southern Frontier Army, and it was also the most frustrating fact for the Eastern Expeditionary Army in Western Shu.
How difficult is Shu Dao? The poets of the previous dynasty have a poem "Shu Dao Difficult" as evidence.
It is the geographical advantage of "one husband is the pass, and ten thousand people are not open", which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially when winter goes to spring and snow melts.
Therefore, Donglu sent 400,000 sons to guard the southern border.
But if Xishu gave up "defending" and chose "attacking", this situation would be completely reversed. Without the reliance of geographical advantages, the large and well-trained southern border army can almost annihilate the Western Shu Eastern Expeditionary Army that came to invade the territory in one fell swoop! Moreover, the southern border army was supported by a steady stream of food supply in the hinterland of Donglu, and there were two military wizards, one old and one young, Qu Chi of Dian State and Murong Chong, the king of Rong; On the Xishu side, the generals who could set up formations to kill the enemy were almost assassinated by the Donglu masters who infiltrated Jincheng, and the notorious Concubine Shao and Tangmen controlled the dynasty against the rumors.
Under such a situation, for the Western Shu Eastern Expeditionary Army, it was almost a certain defeat.
This confrontation lasted for four months, and the Eastern Expeditionary Army of Western Shu suffered heavy losses. And the Tang Sect repeatedly sent assassins to infiltrate the southern army in a vain attempt to assassinate the commander - regardless of whether it was the Duke of Dian Guo, Zhennan Hou, or Zhennan Hou's son Qu Chun, but he didn't succeed once, even if he sent the killer weapon of the Tang Sect, that is, the only remaining medicine man of the "Three Kills".
It's just that the price paid by the Southern Border Army that time was very large, even if Li Yan had already reminded Murong Chong and delivered to him the medicinal powder specially configured by Tang Biao to deal with the medicine man, they still suffered heavy losses.
That medicine man is indeed a top-level killing machine, even if he has set a trap, even if he is pierced through the throat and chest by more than a dozen sharp swords, even if the adhesion between his limbs and his body is only a few thin strands of flesh, he has never stopped killing people.
That night, more than half of the guards of Zhennan Hou's father and son were killed and wounded, and one-third of the shadow guards were also lost, and Qu Chun was also seriously injured. But in the end, they piled the medicine man to death, and at the same time killed Tang Yu, who was hiding in the secret control of the medicine man, and hung his head in front of the formation.
Every time he thought of that thrilling scene, Qu Chun still had palpitations, and asked Murong Chong again and again: "Is there really only such a medicine man in the Tang Sect?" In this way, he tried to find support for his uneasiness.
The master of the Tang Sect died, although Tang Xiao succeeded the new master, but for the Eastern Expeditionary Army in Western Shu, it still could not inspire them at all, and despair spread in the army, making the military spirit of the Eastern Expeditionary Army more and more unstable.
At that time, the court encouraged them to go to war on the basis that Donglu had detained Prince Zhan and slandered the royal family, while the southern army was ready to attack Western Shu. Xishu is their country, their home, as the soldiers of Xishu, they must swear to defend the land to the death, and they cannot watch the army of the enemy country kill their land and kill their relatives.
But now? The Southern Frontier Army did not have any intention of attacking Xishu, but only guarded its own territory, defending and counterattacking the rounds of attacks launched by them, and did not set foot in the territory of Xishu for half a step! However, the rumor that flourished was that the purpose of the Donglu army in the south was just to force Xishu to hand over Concubine Shao and Tangmen, because Murong Chong, the invincible Rong Wang, wanted to get justice for his tragic death of the princess!
This is to tell these soldiers of the Crusade that their sacrifice is completely meaningless! They are not to protect their family and defend the country, but because their king favors a woman, and loves the house and Wudi to make a Tang family pampered and arrogant, and the final price must be borne by them!
Rumors fueled despair, despair fueled rumors, and the number of Eastern Expeditionary troops who passively boycotted the war grew day by day, and finally almost led to a mutiny, and the last straw that broke them was Deng Siye, the biological father of Concubine Shao, who appeared in the southern army, and Song Huan Chu, the prince of Zhan, who was said to be "imprisoned" in the city of Bian'an.
Deng Siye scolded Concubine Shao Deng Xin for bewitching and harming the country, ignoring the deep brotherhood and cruelty to his sister; But Song Huan Chu had a gloomy face, and met with the generalissimo of the Eastern Expedition for a detailed discussion, and then the generalissimo of the Eastern Expeditionary Army sent his henchmen back to Jincheng overnight.
Antaibo House, Hidden Garden.
Qu Xiaoxiang, who had a slight bulge in her lower abdomen, smiled in her eyes, teasing the two brothers and sisters who were crawling around on the bed, and she was very happy: "Everyone is a boy with solid skin, and a girl is quiet." Why are these two little guys of your family coming in the opposite direction? Cheng You'an is quiet, looks a little serious, and doesn't smile; Ah Zi is very lively, and he is always troublesome. ”
Lin Ruo smiled lightly and said, "When Shao Ai was young, he was actually a little similar to Chengyou's current appearance, and he was also quiet. ”
"Really?"
Although Lin Qi is much more stable now, Qu Xiaoxiang recalls the frizzy, impulsive and reckless Lin Qi, and he doesn't believe it.
Lin Ruo nodded with a smile: "Xiao Qi was indeed very well-behaved when he was a child, and he didn't make trouble at all, but when he grew up, he made a little fuss, and he was also brought by Bo Yu and Luo Er, and he was black near ink." Sister Qiu said that the child is like her, a leather monkey, and she is quite compatible with Xi'en. Yun Zhisheng's daughter is quiet, not as noisy as Ah Zi. I don't know if the one in your stomach looks like Bo Yu or you. ”
When Qu Xiaoxiang heard this, his face flushed, and he patted Lin Ruo lightly in disgust: "What nonsense!" Whether it's a son or a daughter, how can you get a ...... if you're as good as him?"
Before he finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of a small figure quickly crawling over, blocking Lin Ruo's right palm that had been lightly beaten with a serious face, sitting down with difficulty, wrinkling a small face, and screaming fiercely at Qu Xiaoxiang twice. And another little girl who was having a good time on the side paused, looking at her brother who was suddenly angry in puzzlement, at a loss.
"This is ......" Qu Xiaoxiang was also confused, looked at the "fierce" Lin Jue, and then looked at Lin Ruo's hand, suddenly understood something, and said in surprise, "This kid is too filial, right?" ”
Not only filial piety, but also cleverness!
is only so old, would she rush out to protect her mother because she "hit" Lin Ruo's hand?
Lin Ruo was also a little surprised, she gently touched Lin Jue's head with her left hand, and saw that the seven-month-old child was looking at her solemnly, and her eyes were extremely soft: "Chengyou, don't worry, this aunt is joking with her aunt, it doesn't hurt." ”
Xiao Bu naturally couldn't understand Lin Ruo's words, but he could feel the kindness in Lin Ruo's tone, and his wrinkled little face slowly relaxed, but it was still a somewhat serious expression. Then, obediently crawled back to his sister, but this time, the movements were not as neat as the "rush" just now.
