Chapter 50: Turning the Tide

……

Xuanyuan's elite army swung westward, even breaking through the water defense, and went straight to the flame capital.

In just one day and one night, the news of the defeat of the Yan Army broke out in all parts of the Red Flame at the same time, and the whole country fell into panic.

……

"How is that possible? How can it be? King Yu walked anxiously in the hall, and a series of questions stirred his brain, "Isn't that Sikong Er able to fight well?" Aren't the Situ troops all elite soldiers? Why is it so unbeaten?! The news of the war has just arrived, and in a few days, it will reach the point of destroying the country? ”

The person kneeling in the hall heard it and raised his head, "Lord Wang, the three kingdoms have joined forces, and the combat power is not the same as in the past, our country's soldiers are short of food, morale is low, and under the fierce attack of the three kingdoms, defeat is inevitable." ”

King Yu paused suddenly, "Recently, King Jia has been selling food on a large scale, so he must have received some news." ”

"Lord Wang, what should we do next?"

"The news has only spread so fiercely now, it should be that the little emperor is powerless to suppress it." King Yu muttered to himself, his expression couldn't see joy or sorrow, "This time, I'm just afraid that the Red Flame Qi is really exhausted." ”

The kneeling man of the "......" listened, and his expression kept changing, although he was already a slave, no one wanted to be a slave of the country.

King Yu suddenly hurried: "Hurry up...... Fast...... Sell the grain in the warehouse as soon as possible, pack up the bags, and we will go to Xituo. ”

"Yes......"

……

"Lord Wang, some new rice shops have suddenly sprung up in the city everywhere, the price of grain is quite low, and no one wants to buy the grain in the prince's warehouse now."

King Yu walked anxiously, "Hmph! It must be that the other princes have also received the information, and they are afraid of the ghost plan of this king's first envoy. Although King Yu still had doubts in his heart, the dull atmosphere of the Flame Kingdom for many days had long made him unable to think.

"If they are low, my king will be lower than them."

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, all rice shops began to adjust prices.

Shen Xue lazily opened the door of the shop, glanced at the person who stretched his neck to probe the shop, took the price card in the rice bag in a good mood, and with a big stroke, the one on the price card became ten, and she gloated and inserted it back into the bag.

I saw that the rice card was written, ten liters per penny.

When the man with his neck stretched out saw it, he immediately cursed.

Shen Xue still didn't think it was enough, and said idly on the side: "My Mu family has nothing else, and the poor have rice left." ”

The corners of everyone's angry mouths trembled, and they couldn't scold anymore, so they all ran home with depressed faces.

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, people in a panic found that various rice shops were scrambling to drop the price of rice, and the high-priced cards in the rice bags were exchanged for a few breaths, and the price was as low as the bottom.

Compared with the gloomy clouds outside, the Mu family is gradually picking up, and Mu Bingyue is even more relieved, this divisive plan has finally succeeded.

While people were overwhelmed by the changing situation of the day, ships loaded with grain quietly sailed out of the cities and converged on the border towns.

After worshipping the ancestors, he wanted to attack the two countries of Xuanyuan, which had internal friction and overdrafted the red flame, but after hearing this news, he knew that he could no longer take advantage of the fire to rob, and the war would end on the sixteenth day after the year.

Subsequently, the news that the Flame Emperor went to the battlefield spread all over the world, and the Red Flame, who was abundant in food and grass, joined the three powerful countries in a short battle and started a life-and-death struggle.

When the two countries of Xuanyuan formed a vertical encirclement and attacked the red flame, an arrow carried the momentum of wind and thunder and shot into the flame qi of the city of Nangong Chen, the Flame Emperor.

The grain and grass of the two countries in the Xuanyuan Firmament fell into the sea of fire one after another, and the Red Flame took advantage of the situation to take the initiative to attack, and the black Yi was unusual, giving up the Red Flame, and transferring troops to loot the news of the two countries of the Xuanyuan Firmament continued to spread back to China.

Just when Chiyan was waiting for the news of the battle situation, a man in black killed the head of Xuanyuan in the midst of thousands of troops, and the news of the sharp edge of the enemy army came back.

In just over a month, Chiyan has turned things around, from fish and meat to bloodthirsty wolves.

Red Flame Barracks.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that the emperor is thirsty for talents, but if it is not my race, his heart will be different, how can the emperor hand over tens of thousands of soldiers and the land where Chiyan wants to be in the hands of a foreign family." A general dressed in a military uniform admonished bitterly.

Another military general dressed in a three-grade military uniform stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, you have promoted this person twice in succession, his age is only twenty years old, the general of riding and hunting is a first-class official position, and he commands tens of thousands of soldiers under the command, but I am afraid that he is young and young, and he is really embarrassed by this great task!" ”

Nangong Chen, who was sitting in the dragon chair of the military tent, snorted coldly, "Young? I ascended the throne at the age of six, so wouldn't it be more difficult to take on a big responsibility? ”

The people in the tent were silent.

Nangong Chen got up from the chair and walked to the front of the desk with his back hand, "Flying arrows offer plans, transfer the tiger away from the mountain, burn the enemy's grain and grass, cut off its backup, cooperate with the inside and outside, behead the enemy, and break the siege." Such a genius, one person can be worth 10,000 soldiers, a mere second-grade hussar general, you think it is an exception, but I still feel wronged by him. ”

Long Yan was displeased, and no one dared to speak out again.

"What about the people of Kuroyi? As long as I drive Xuanyuan Firmament out of the border and let the Flame Kingdom get out of trouble, I will immediately crown him as a first-class cavalry hunting general,"

The generals looked at me and I looked at you, and finally chose to remain silent under their dragon power.

In February, the pressure on the Red Flame suddenly decreased under the absence of a strong enemy of the Black Empire, during which the Xuanyuan Sky frequently launched fierce attacks on it, but they were all defused by the Red Flame one by one.

With Situ Nan sitting in the water fortress and Heiyi lurking on the side, the two countries had to attack from Yucheng, but Yucheng was bravely guarded by Sikong.

During this period, the two countries of Xuanyuan and the Firmament were also attacked by a mysterious team many times, and the rear supply camps were picked one after another.

The three kingdoms were in a stalemate, and the two great powers, who were unwilling to enter the treasure house and returned empty-handed, once again fought their national strength and started a tug-of-war with Chiyan.

Although Heiyi and Chiyan were not on good terms, they knew that Xuanyuan Firmament joined forces to annex Chiyan, and Xuanyuan, the former mortal enemy, would definitely not let him go, so he changed his strategy and fished in troubled waters while the three kingdoms were attacking each other.

Xuanyuan and Cangqiong were unbearable, and they couldn't attack Chiyan for a long time, so their hearts were on fire, and they aimed at Heiyi, and finally the four countries fought again.

The Red Flame Crisis was lifted, the national situation was gradually settled, and the people rushed to the streets to celebrate the Prime Minister's celebration. Of course, this does not include the five kings who vomited and vomited blood.

It took three months, and Chiyan went all the way through the food shortage and relieved the danger of destroying the country, which was like divine help.

And only Shen Xue and Cao Shu knew what key role Mu Bingyue played in this.

Whether it is the food shortage in the last days or the siege of the Three Kingdoms.

Turning things around, the bloodthirsty Shura who has been known to the four countries is actually the one who was saved by Mu Bingyue, so they say that she is a well-deserved savior of Chiyan.

When Xiao Liuzi and Xiao Shunzi Feige sent back the person's letter, Shen Xue and the others, including Mu Bingyue, were shocked by the content of the letter and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

That man claimed to be ruthless, and had been named a hussar general by the Flame Emperor, and Xiao Liuzi and Xiao Shunzi, who were under his command, were also promoted to the seventh rank elite cavalry captain.

When everyone was amazed by the impermanence of fate, they were even more in awe of Mu Bingyue's wonderful fate.

Mu Bingyue was not as optimistic as them, she knew that Chiyan's victory was only superficial, although they succeeded in building momentum and forced the five kings to sell grain at a low price, but they were only demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall.

The disaster situation in many places has not been substantively resolved, and this war can only be resolved quickly, and if it drags on for a long time, it will only make the red flame fall back into the mud.

The news of Chiyan's victory has gradually made the price of rice in China gradually rise, and only those new rice shops have persevered for the people who are struggling on the line of life and death.

"Miss, our food is enough to meet the needs of the residents of Wucheng, why do we have to carry sand into the warehouse?" Shen Xue couldn't help lowering her voice at the end.

Mu Bingyue lowered her head and wrote, "This is psychological warfare, otherwise do you think the price of rice in the city can always be maintained at this price?" The war has not stopped, the five kings are all waiting, in order to prevent them from manipulating the price of rice, we can only steal the beams and change the pillars, and secretly cross the Chen Cang. ”

She glanced at Shen Xue, who seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and stopped writing, "Okay, don't think about it too much, hurry up and send the letter to the family, Mother Tong and the others are so relieved." ”

Shen Xue looked at her with admiration, "Miss, you said that we obviously eat and wear the same, why do you have so many unbelievable ideas in your head?!" ”

Li'er next to her listened, and lifted her eyelids, "The same rice raises a hundred kinds of people!" You foodie still dare to compare yourself with the young lady, it's really a big girl looking for her husband's house_ so shameless! ”

Shen Xue was angry, but there was a pigtail in Li'er's hand, afraid that she would mention it again, so she stomped her foot and didn't raise the bar with her, and went out to deliver the letter.

"Li'er too, it's time to let my mother handle the dowry." Mu Bingyue also raised her head and continued these letters.

Li'er even rolled her eyes, her young lady was obviously a master who ate people and didn't spit out bones, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, but she was rumored to be reincarnated as a goddess to save sentient beings.

It's unreasonable!

Li'er sympathetically glanced at Liu San, who was exploited by Mu Bingyue, and poured tea for him with his horse's head, looking at his still fluttering clothes, he sighed three times in his heart, and suddenly thought of himself again, looked at the plantain piled up into a hill in front of him, and looked at the days of breath sadly.

Her sister's heart is so black!

Liu Moyun saw Li'er's expression changing three times in a row, and chuckled insightfully.

Mu Bingyue, who didn't see Li'er's expression, heard Liu Moyun's laughter, and said lightly: "I'm writing a letter to Xiao Liuzi, Mo'er has something to say." ”

Liu Moyun's laughter stopped, and he quickly exchanged a look with Li'er. Miss's heart is so black!

A few days ago, Xiao Shunzi and Xiao Liuzi, who were assigned to escort the Flame Emperor back to the capital, returned to this place and came to visit Mu Bingyue and them.

A few months of barracks life have turned Xiao Shunzi and Xiao Liuzi into iron-blooded heroes, dressed in bright silver armor, lined with two like divine soldiers, and the talented girl Li'er and Mo Yun are very right, and Mu Bingyue can also see that several people have feelings for each other.

This time when they came back from the border, Xiao Shunzi and their performance was obvious, she thought that it might be that the two of them were moved when they came into contact with Li'er and the two of them before, but they didn't say it because of their respective identities.

And she also saw that Li'er and Mo Yun were also interested in them, and after communicating with each other in Shen Xue's matter, she naturally would not object to this matter again.

When things are stable, they should also do some happy events.
