Chapter 64: Only 30,000
Perhaps, at this moment, the Xiaoqiong royal family can't do anything at all.
I can only choose to wait, waiting for the moment when the people's hearts are calm.
And the end result may always be disappointing.
A few days later, the large-scale turmoil in the Xiaoqiong Kingdom gradually calmed down.
But on the land of the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, which stretches for thousands of miles, in addition to the banner of the royal family of the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, there is now another banner.
Needless to say, Mo.
"Unexpectedly, the end result is still like this. ”
The moment he received the news, Qiong Zhuchen summoned all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to the court, and he also leaned behind the table, quietly contemplating.
As the lord of the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, it is his ambition, and he has no reason to regret it.
However, this position may seem supreme to others, and it can command the crowd very majestic.
But it's easy to sit in this position, and it's really hard to do your duty in this position.
Qiong Zhuchen didn't dare to say that he was really a good lord, but he had already managed the entire kingdom with all his heart.
Weekdays may be busy, but that's his duty, and he can do as much as he can.
And now, the meticulous work within the kingdom has made him lose his right-hand man, and his mood has fallen to a low point. Then what followed was this incident, and for a moment it seemed to be pressed on him again, making him almost out of breath.
The revival of the Mo nationality can be said to have taken away half of the Qiong nationality almost overnight.
In this way, there will be one more crime on him, and at the same time, even in the royal city, the people's hearts will be discouraged.
Qiong Zhuchen stared and pondered behind the table, and the ministers below were also flustered, obviously this time the matter was not trivial.
Losing half of the country overnight, it can be said that at this time of war, the Xiaoqiong Kingdom has another strong enemy.
The Haojin Kingdom and the Zhongtian Kingdom are located in the northwest and east of the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, and the Mo people occupy the southern half of the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, so it can be said that Xiaoqiong has been completely surrounded in the center of the enemy.
Today's situation is like a game of chess, to the point of exhaustion.
There are possible winners, but not very big.
The situation after that was definitely a wrong step.
But this next step is very difficult.
And if you choose to sit back and wait, you will definitely lose.
"How to solve ...... How to solve ......"
After a long time, Qiong Zhuchen let out a sigh.
He was so stressed that he was almost out of breath, and it was difficult for him to think of a solution.
Not only him, but no one in the court could come up with half a countermeasure.
"Hey......"
After a few breaths, Qiong Zhuchen finally raised his head and looked at the civil and military officials below.
However, for a while, his expression gradually began to become worried. There is even a sense of disappointment.
"How nice it would be if the prime minister was still here......"
For a long time, it can be said that Li Xuan assisted Qiong Zhuchen, and he did his best. Almost everything that Qiong Zhuchen couldn't do, Li Xuan was able to come up with a way to deal with it for him, and almost every time he could save the day.
But Li Xuan, Qiong Zhuchen never thought about it, he would be the enemy's meticulous work.
Arranged within the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, decades of meticulous work.
After the news of Li Xuan's imprisonment came out, Qiong Zhuchen would think of it from time to time.
But in the end, there is only one conclusion.
Within Xiaoqiong, I am afraid that there will be no second Prime Minister Li Cheng.
"Your Majesty!"
And looking at his disappointed expression, Feng Xiao suddenly thought about moving a step towards the center of the hall, and shouted with his hand.
Seeing him stand up, a trace of doubt flashed in Qiong Zhuchen's expression, but he didn't have too much excitement.
"Feng Aiqing, what do you have to say?"
Qiong Zhuchen asked.
Feng Xiao withdrew her arm, straightened her body and said, "Wei Chen really can't bear to see His Majesty so worried. Although I don't know if there will be a second Prime Minister Li Cheng above the court, the minister is willing to do his best to assist the prince and share his majesty's worries. ”
His words did not contain too many promises, nor did they affirm that they would be able to get the Xiaoqiong Kingdom out of the predicament.
Therefore, Qiong Zhuchen's expression is still bleak.
Maybe Feng Xiao surprised him in every way, but unfortunately he was only fourteen years old after all.
Qiong Zhuchen thought that if he could be born ten years earlier, no matter what kind of predicament the Xiaoqiong Kingdom encountered now, this person would definitely be able to turn it into a disaster.
It's a pity that he is only fourteen years old after all.
"What should you do to share the worries of the lonely king?"
After a moment of silence, Qiong Zhuchen chose to speak slowly.
And Feng Xiao immediately replied: "Now that the enemy is attacking from the north of the kingdom, but the detailed work of the DPRK and the central government has been thoroughly investigated, and the two of Zhen Guohou and General Dai have fought bravely to kill the enemy, and they will definitely be able to save it." ”
At this point, he paused for a moment, "And now more than 30 cities in the south of the kingdom have been captured by the rebellious Mo people in one fell swoop, and even become the people's desire. I am afraid that in less than half a month, he will take the opportunity to send troops to attack the kingdom. However, they were only just rising now, and their troops were very small, so they naturally knew that it was impossible to take the royal city easily. ”
Half of what Feng Xiao said was something that others could expect.
However, there seemed to be absolute seriousness in his expression, and I am afraid that he has already taken a countermeasure.
"Feng Aiqing, what are your countermeasures?"
Looking at his eyes, Qiong Zhuchen seemed to vaguely see a little bit of what he was looking forward to, and he couldn't help but look a little better.
Subsequently, Feng Xiaocai continued: "Knowing that the rebellion of raising troops is not low, he will inevitably choose to go around the back. And Qiongzhou City, which is only separated from the Xiaoqiong Kingdom by the Qiong Beast Mountain Range, will inevitably become their target. In addition, it is easier to influence the front-line combat in that position, and if there is a possibility of rebellion, they will inevitably choose to conclude an alliance with the enemy, and once the alliance is reached, the kingdom will be defeated. ”
"The minister asks for orders, if he rebels and sends troops to attack Qiongzhou City within half a month, he will lead his troops to Qiongzhou City to defend it. ”
Feng Xiao's words came to an abrupt end here.
And for a moment, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were silent, like a crow.
However, a moment later, there was a discord.
"Your Majesty, this plan is based on the opinion of the ministers, but it is not appropriate. ”
A civil official stood up, "If Lord Feng leads his troops out of the royal city, then the royal city will probably fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness, and if the rebellion has been so premeditated, then the royal city will definitely be in danger." If the royal city is breached, there is no point in holding Qiongzhou City. ”
What he said must be a truth.
He is not convinced by Feng Xiao, after all, Feng Xiao is in a high position at such an age, and no one will be convinced. And the second point is that this move is indeed too dangerous, even if it is not for the name of the country, he himself is also in the royal city, and he will not be spared if the royal city is broken.
Of course, he is by no means the only one who has such a relationship, and almost half of the civil and military officials also think the same way.
Even, even Qiong Zhuchen faintly felt that this plan was inappropriate.
Even if he trusts Feng Xiao, he still can't entrust all possibilities to Feng Xiao.
"The current situation may be very unfavorable for the Xiaoqiong Kingdom, but because of this, it can also break the enemy army with the strongest state. ”
Feng Xiao chose to turn a blind eye to these prejudices, and then said, "The minister's request for orders, 30,000 troops is enough." ”
"Thirty thousand?!"
"How is that possible!"
"How is it possible for 30,000 troops to break the enemy, isn't this exactly to send them to death?"
"Lord, this is absolutely inappropriate, you can't lose 30,000 troops in vain!"
For a while, those who were not convinced by the wind were also from the position of standing in the name of the country and admonishing Qiong Zhuchen.
It's just that Qiong Zhuchen turned a deaf ear to what they said this time.
A month ago, the combined forces of the Haojin Kingdom and the Zhongtian Kingdom attacked Qiongzhou City, and Feng Xiao shocked hundreds of thousands of enemy Kou Xiongshi with the strength of one person. And a few days ago, Feng Xiao shocked the 110,000 troops in the royal city with the power of one person.
Even, he showed a wisdom and composure that was completely different from that of the ordinary fourteen-year-old.
These points alone fully prove that he is not simple.
Since this is the prince chosen by Qiong Haolong, then this time Qiong Zhuchen feels that he can still believe in Qiong Haolong's decision.
"Feng Aiqing, 30,000 is enough, are you sure?"
completely ignored the exhortations of those big cities, but asked Xiang Fengxiao directly.
Feng Xiao nodded, her eyes full of confidence: "Now that the national disaster is imminent, the royal city must not lose its army." The second is the first, behind Qiongzhou City is the Qiong Beast Mountain Range, which can be said to have no way back. In this way, the 30,000 soldiers were isolated and had no way to retreat, and only with such a momentum could they break the enemy's army. And if this battle is won, the morale of the front-line Wang army will inevitably be greatly boosted, and Xiaoqiong's revival of strength will inevitably be just around the corner. ”
"Good!"
Qiong Zhuchen's expression instantly brightened a lot, "If you rebel and send troops within half a month and march into Qiongzhou City, King Gu will have direct command of the 30,000 royal army in your royal city." ”
And when his words fell, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces immediately stopped talking.
They understood that Qiong Zhuchen would never take back the resolution.
Even, what Qiong Zhuchen handed over to him was not the prince's army, but also the defenders of the royal city, but the royal army.
Wang Jun has always been the true elite of the Xiaoqiong Kingdom.
"If this battle ends in victory, then the Lone King will make you a different surname. ”
Immediately after, before the command just now echoed in everyone's hearts, Qiong Zhuchen spoke again.
In an instant, except for the few people standing at the front of the court, no one did not show a look of horror.
What kind of status is the different surname, no one present does not understand.
In the kingdom, if you don't talk about the court, the status of the marquis is second only to the lord. In addition, it can also exercise the right of the direct bloodline of the royal family.
After Qiong Zhuchen ascended the throne, there was only one candidate with a different surname in the kingdom, Ling Xiaotian, the town of the country.
