Chapter 553: The Hour Has Come2
But......
The atmosphere was silent for a while, Cao Wencheng's face regained a little calm, he slowly exhaled a breath, and then said: "Two days, in two days, our plan can officially begin." ”
Time flies, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Since Lin Yue and Shao Sijin left, the palace has been extremely peaceful.
The emperor first experienced the pain of losing his son in middle age, and then lost his concubine, and now he is much older all of a sudden, but his mind is clearer than before.
He learned that there were still many imperfect systems in various regions of Shunguo, as well as those things that were corrupt, and he put almost all his energy on this.
On this day, the emperor looked at the scroll on his table, and was a little stunned for a while.
It has been more than a month since Shao Sijin left, and this month, he is like a lonely old man, staying in this empty palace every day, if he is not accompanied by the queen, I am afraid that he will really be a little unbearable.
As the saying goes, when people are old, their hearts will become fragile, and this is true.
"Ah Fu, do you say that this Si Jin and Yue'er are doing now?"
The Emperor muttered as he asked, how could the pen that stayed on the scroll not fall.
Ah Fu watched the emperor go all the way with his own eyes, and he didn't understand his feelings, so he hurriedly comforted: "The emperor can rest assured, Xu is too far away from the south of the Yangtze River, and it is just inconvenient for His Royal Highness and the imperial concubine to send a message over." Have you forgotten? Before leaving, Your Highness promised you that you would be able to complete all your affairs and come back to see you in two months. ”
"Now there is still some time before the February period, the emperor does not have to worry, His Royal Highness and the imperial concubine are already on the way back" Ah Fu is worthy of being an old minister who has been with the emperor for many years, and his words are directly to the emperor's heart.
Nodding slightly, the emperor really settled down a lot.
He was about to bow his head and re-read the book, when suddenly a melodious sound came from outside the door, "Newspaper-"
I saw a soldier hurriedly running in, kneeling down in front of the emperor, and opened his mouth to say: "The emperor is not good, Fengying's army has approached the territory of my capital at some point, I'm afraid that the person who came is not good!" ”
"What?!"
The Emperor hurriedly got up, and the ink pen in his hand fell on the table, and in an instant it stained the white paper.
The soldiers on the front line had already assembled their ranks and went forward the moment they received this signal.
They wanted to see where Fengying, who had already disarmed and surrendered and vowed never to invade Shun, had the courage to raise troops again!
Mo Zhengzhuo had already planned to retire, but after learning about this, he couldn't take care of his body, so he hurriedly got up from the bed and put on a heavy armor to find the emperor.
"How many people?"
Looking at the soldier who came to report earlier with a calm face, Mo Zhengzhuo's expression was solemn.
It stands to reason that Feng Ying's troops are now much worse than before, but since the other party has the courage to come up and provoke, he still can't act rashly.
"Back to the general, there are only 20,000 people." The soldier said truthfully, and he couldn't believe it after saying it.
And at the moment when his words fell, several people present showed surprised looks.
"20,000?"
"Yes General." The soldier nodded again, affirmatively.
A few generals and commanders around, look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to say all of a sudden.
"Just 20,000 people dare to come? This Feng Ying ......" touched his chin, and one of the younger commanders said. Book 6 bar
Rao's young experience told him that this was a bit strange, not to mention the veterans around him.
"The current 20,000 troops are all stationed in the mountains and forests around the capital." The soldier said again.
Mo Zhengzhuo was silent for a while and finally said: "Since this is the case, let's hold our troops first and see what they are going to do!" ”
All the way from Fengying, even if there are only 20,000 people, they have suffered a lot of hardships, and the first thing they did when they came to the territory of Shun should be how to maintain the necessary life.
Therefore, Mo Zhengzhuo wanted to take this opportunity to test them.
But what he didn't expect was that another three days had passed, and Fengying's soldiers just didn't have any intention of moving, they went to hunt wild animals in the mountains when they were hungry, and drank water from the mountain streams when they were thirsty, and they were completely self-sufficient.
It's just that the 20,000 people are there, and the wild fowl on the mountain are suddenly much less.
If it continues to be consumed like this, I am afraid that the entire forest will become an empty forest.
"No, they have to be motivated!"
Mo Zhengzhuo sent people to put a lot of poison in the mountains and forests, and those petite birds and pheasants accidentally ate the poison and died, and were eaten by wild boars and foxes in the depths of the mountains and forests, and this animal was also one of the main animals hunted by the Fengying army.
Many Fengying soldiers were killed on the spot after eating these wild animals, and thousands of people died in a single moment of the entire 20,000 army, which was a very spectacular scene.
But the more this is the case, the more Mo Zhengzhuo's heart can't be stable.
Sometimes, what should come will always come, and you are destined to be doomed from it.
So when the military rations of the Shun Kingdom were burned all by fire, Mo Zhengzhuo couldn't believe what he heard with his ears.
"Report, the east granary has been destroyed."
"Report, the western granary has been destroyed."
"Report, the soldiers in the north have been attacked, and nearly half of them have been wiped out!"
Mo Zhengzhuo, who was hit by this news one after another, was a little out of breath, he clutched his turbulent chest, tried to breathe as smoothly as possible, and asked, "What about the south?" ”
"Report, the Fengying army stationed outside the city suddenly moved, and now it is attacking the southern gate!"
As soon as Mo Zhengzhuo's words fell, he heard the soldiers rushing in all the way and shouting.
It doesn't matter if you don't shout, as soon as he shouted, Mo Zhengzhuo almost didn't go directly to his back, and the soldiers around him were so frightened that they hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and they were so frightened that they couldn't do it.
"General!"
You know, Mo Zhengzhuo is their backbone, if Mo Zhengzhuo falls, then what will they do?
Stroking his chest, Mo Zhengzhuo naturally knew this.
He just hadn't been deceived by a stratagem for many years, and he was angry and anxious for a while.
"How many soldiers are there on all sides!" He turned his head to the soldier who had just run in, his brow furrowed so much that he could almost kill a fly.
The soldier was stunned and hurriedly replied: "Five thousand in the east, five thousand in the west, ten thousand in the north, and less than twenty thousand in the south!" ”
A total of less than 40,000 soldiers, who actually came to their territory to provoke?
Mo Zhengzhuo's eyes were gloomy and terrifying, and he almost did not hesitate to call his trustworthy subordinates, ordering him to hurry up and hurry all the soldiers of Shun Kingdom, and immediately go to prepare for war with Feng Ying right away!
He wants them to know to the outsiders of Fengying, Shunguo, don't be bullied!
