Chapter 183: A word is broken
The court was silent.
Jing Chi stood in front of the map, and everyone knew that there were not enough soldiers and horses, so the few troops left had to defend against Yan Rong's sudden invasion.
He looked at Meng Yining, and she approached him, "My king has just sent a letter, and he will send an envoy in a few days." But you also know that Beiyang is now facing a situation of internal and external troubles, the king has just calmed down a long-planned civil strife, and Yan Rong is also eyeing it. Nowadays, it is not a situation where businessmen talk about money and ask whether it is profitable, and the two countries are walking on thin ice, and their lips are cold. Beiyang will not wait and see, but it will take time to mobilize troops and horses...... Truly forgive. ”
Jing Chi nodded, he understood everything. Moreover, it is impossible for the king of a great country to put his hopes in other countries.
"Now, in addition to Gai Xiaoyong guarding the mouth of the valley, General Lian Qin and other elite generals have been transferred to the border area to defend against Yan Rong. Are there any generals available in the DPRK? ”
The ministers and nobles did not speak, not a single one spoke.
Jing Chi's eyes immediately swept over a man in armor: "General Li? ”
"Minister...... The minister has a leg disease......"
"What about General Zhao?"
Another trembling man kowtowed in fright and knelt: "Minister...... The minister's right arm is sick......"
He coldly brushed over another man who was on his knees. Before he could speak, the man quickly spoke, "The minister's father is not yet the first seven, and the minister has to keep filial piety at home......"
Jing Chi snorted lightly: "Didn't the adult's father die of illness more than a month ago?" ”
"That'...... That's just a serious illness...... Sick...... Just passed away...... Thank you, thank you for your concern......"
His voice was cold, and now he was facing an embattled situation, but he could still stand here calmly. What about the soldiers of Great Xia? Over the years, they have fought openly and secretly, boasting to each other, and the battles of the year were led by General Lian Tan alone, and the surroundings have been comfortable all these years. It turned out that the generals were all in the position because of merit in the fight, but now that Lian Qin is old, the beard next to his temples has grown a white beard. The young player has not yet been sharpened, and the veteran is inseparable, Jing Chi frowned and said in a deep voice: "You all go down." ”
The crowd let out a "whoop" and hurried down as if they had been granted amnesty.
"Now, how can it be good? How is it good? ”
Zhang Zhong stood aside, "My country's alliance with Wei and Beiyang can ensure that the rear is worry-free, and the second can ensure that Yanrong is afraid of the border and let go of the fight." The minister implored the king to let the minister start with other countries and discuss the alliance plan. Jing Zheng and Yan Rong went down together, and Daxia was in danger! If we want to get through it, we must rely on the strength of other countries. The surrounding neighboring countries also coveted the territory of Great Xia, and some of the cities were originally their old lands, and they came from war. It's just that the civil deed has not been handed over, and it has been repeatedly resisted. He sighed, "It's better to give it back to them as a gift." ”
Jing Chi was silent.
It was his father's inch by inch of land, and it took 10,000 soldiers and horses to get the land in his hand, and he gave it away for nothing, which made his heart feel sour. His eyes were a little red, and he stood silent for a long time. Meng Yining stood behind him and wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start.
"Can you talk openly and honestly?" Meng Yining finally asked.
"What are you talking about?"
"With Jing Zheng."
Jing Chi raised his eyebrows, "Peace talks?" ”
The girl nodded, "Peace talks." ”
"Now that the country is in danger, he still wants to compete for the throne, and finally make Great Xia lose the country and become a county of his Yanrong? Jing Zheng, isn't his brain in water! What does he end up with? The king is his sibling, no matter how much he compares, he can't compare to uniting with Yan Rong to covet the throne! Meng Yining suddenly became angry, and his voice was full of anger, but he ...... But a word broke the dream man.
People are always going round and round between attack and defense, but they don't think that they are born from the same root, so why not be too anxious to fry each other. If it is really an out-and-out fight, it is only possible, and it can only be that Yan Rong is behind the fisherman's profit. He and Jing Zheng actually didn't have any holidays, and the two of them also studied with a Taifu when they were young, so they were a little intimate in retrospect. Jing Chi suddenly laughed, how did he come to this point, the soldiers met each other, so that the country was divided, and he could not share the same hatred.
He smiled, and suddenly it dawned on him.
"Prepare the horses."
"Your Majesty?" Meng Yining was even more worried, she just, just whined.
"This is dangerous, if Jing Zheng ......"
"Not as it were." He suddenly looked at the girl in front of him fixedly, "This is a catastrophe that Daxia must go through, I must go, go and talk to Jing Zheng clearly." ”
"I'll go with you." Le Yi suddenly interjected. Because he knew that if he didn't say this, Meng Yining would definitely say exactly the same thing. He knew that she had been in danger more and more during this time, and she had a stab wound on her shoulder and neck.
Meng Yining looked at him strangely, why did this man suddenly open his mind? Le Yi has nothing to do with Jing Chi, why did he suddenly say such a sentence...... It's like words coming out of my own mouth.
Le Yi cannot be refuted.
Meng Yining didn't think it was a good idea. stood up and wanted to object, but in front of Shangjingchi's calm eyes, she swallowed the two decisive words "no" alive.
Zhang Zhong tried to dissuade him on the side, but he didn't speak, his eyes fixed on Jing Chi and sighed. ...... year Back then, the former king Jingcheng was also like this, sneaking into the camp of the rebel general alone, and talked with the long-minded general for a long time. Later, the first king actually moved the general, and has been reused to this day, becoming his right-hand man. And this general was indeed born and died, no matter how dangerous and dangerous, he was always by his side.
Zhang Zhong raised his eyes and looked at Lian Tan next to him.
The old man whispered, "Go with the king." ”
"Don't work anymore." Jing Chi smiled, he suddenly remembered that when he was a child, his father told him that Zhang Zhong accompanied him to risk and enter the enemy camp.
The green yarn flew up, and a small bird flew in, flying dexterously, whirling like a dance. landed on Jing Chi's shoulder and pecked lightly. Jing Chi paused, "There is a Laole son." ”
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the silent land, and everything in the world was dyed with a faint layer of blood. The white and yellow clouds hung in the sky, and the corners of the boys' clothes fluttered in the wind. Meng Yining rode the horse given to him by Salib from a distance and followed behind, General Lian Qin ambushed a thousand people around the battalion commander, if there was a mistake, the cavalry charged against each other, and he would inevitably rescue Jingchi.
I saw black tents in the distance, and the bonfires were bright.
