Lone Star smiled and said: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be that Xiaotian Emperor who has taken action again, since the previous Zhao State, Yan State and Wu State have been sneak attacked, then I think the remaining Qi State, Song State and Shu State should suffer this time, right?"

"Haha, it's really easy to deal with a smart person like the little brother. ”

The shopkeeper praised the words and said: "That's right, just when King Wu was about to make a big number of soldiers and horses, that group of people shot again, as the little brother said, the target of this group of people this time is the three kingdoms of Qi, Shu and Song, but this time it is not to divide the troops, but to bring the three soldiers and horses together, three hours later, Zhuzhou, which was occupied by the Qi State, fell, and all 80,000 soldiers defending the city were killed, and Cangzhou fell five hours later, and another hour later, Liuzhou fell. ”

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper paused slightly, looked at Lone Star and said, "This group of people is so brave, they have won all five battles, so can the little brother guess how many soldiers and horses this group of people have?"

Hearing this question, Lone Star couldn't help but think about it, the ancients, two fists are hard to defeat four hands, how can they compete with the six countries with the strength of Chu alone, and Chu has a large army to guard the border all year round to resist the barbarians, so it should not be as good as the six countries in terms of numbers, the reason why they can win six battles and six victories depends on the fact that most of the people who fought have cultivated in their bodies, and they are all good at cultivating, so that one can be ten, but the battlefield is never a scene, listen to what the shopkeeper said, there are 80,000 defenders in Qi alone, it can be seen that no matter how great the strength of the individual is, it will become small under the overwhelming numerical advantage of the enemy。

Thinking of this, Lone Star couldn't help but sigh lightly and said, "Even if the Chu State is as good as a cloud, there must be at least no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses. ”

After speaking, seeing that the shopkeeper only smiled slightly, but did not answer, Lone Star couldn't help asking, "What, could it be that I guessed wrong?"

"Huh. The shopkeeper turned his head directly and chuckled: "It's no wonder that the little brother guessed wrong, if you didn't see it with your own eyes, who can believe that the Chu State only used 50,000 soldiers and horses to turn the world upside down, and in three days, a total of 500,000 soldiers and horses from the six countries were slaughtered, all of which sounded like a fantasy, it was really unbelievable." ”

"Fifty thousand?"

Hearing this number, Lone Star naturally didn't believe it, even if the Chu State had the advantage of time and place, it shouldn't be so disparity with the Six Kingdoms in terms of numbers, and immediately asked tentatively: "How can a mere 50,000 soldiers and horses compete with the 500,000 troops of the Six Kingdoms, are the seniors joking?"

The shopkeeper sighed when he heard this: " No, although the 500,000 army sounds amazing, the little brother might as well think about it, this army is often dispatched by 100,000 million, and there are a few who can be called masters, but the body is tougher than ordinary people, most of them are not even considered warriors, and although the Chu State only dispatched 50,000 soldiers and horses this time, but it is 50,000 martial arts people, how can it be compared to ordinary soldiers, not to mention that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the six countries are not gathered in one place, but scattered on the border of the Chu State to work separately, and the time when the Chu State chose to attack the city was deliberately selected at night, all kinds of factors together, although it still sounds a little incredible, but it is not a lie after allMoreover, there are compelling reasons for the war itself. ”

"What reason?"

Lone Star said: "In the face of the absolute strength of the Six Kingdoms, I don't think the Chu State has any ability to turn things around and turn defeat into victory. ”

But seeing the shopkeeper smiled bitterly, he said with a little melancholy: "Maybe it's not a reason, the reason why I say this is just because of his identity." ”

"Identity, what identity, whose identity?"

In a hurry, Lone Star asked two questions in a row.

"Who else can there be, naturally it's him, Chu Xiaotian!"

At the mention of this name, the shopkeeper seemed to become very excited again, and immediately stood up from his seat, and then he calmed down a few times and said, "That is, the leader of those people, the man in the purple robe. ”

"Chu Xiaotian?"

Lone Star was stunned: "Haven't you yet determined the identity of that person, why are your predecessors so convinced now?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "I was uncertain before, but later it has been confirmed that that person is the Emperor of Xiaotian, there is no doubt that on the day of the siege, at least tens of thousands of people witnessed him in blood, tossing and turning in the field, killing all the way to invincible." ”

"Why, wasn't he trying his best to hide his identity before, why ...... now?"

"It's just a means. ”

The shopkeeper interrupted Lone Star's words and explained: "The concealment was for deterrence, and now it is also for deterrence, but in fact, the purpose is to give the Six Kingdoms color psychologically, so that they can show their cowardice before the war starts, so that they can take the lead and surrender without a fight, all of this is probably expected by the Emperor of the Laughing Sky before he acted." ”

"In this way, wouldn't the whole world be in the dark, this person is really thoughtful, I think the six countries must have a very wonderful expression when they learn his true identity, right?"

The shopkeeper still shook his head and sighed: "Since ancient times, the Seven Kingdoms have been fighting for hegemony for a long time, and in terms of conquest, each has countless generals in the army, full of talents, and in terms of resourcefulness, there are also some strategists in various countries, and it should not be difficult to speculate on the identity of the man in purple through some spider silk clues." ”

"If you already know it, why don't you do it or do you withdraw from the army?

"I think there are two reasons for this. ”

The shopkeeper thought for a while, and then made up his mind: "First, I underestimated the strength of the Chu State, to be precise, I underestimated the true cultivation and courage of the Xiaotian Emperor and the tens of thousands of masters he led, and dared to compete with the four or five hundred thousand troops of the Six Kingdoms with only 50,000 people, although it was a sneak attack, it was enough to show the extraordinary courage and proud cultivation of these people, in comparison, the soldiers and horses of the Six Nations were too inferior." ”

"Second, maybe it's just as a temptation, wanting to exchange these people who stayed behind for an attitude of the Chu State. ”

"Attitude, what attitude?" said Lone Star, puzzled.

The shopkeeper said: " The reason why he is indifferent in the face of the threat is because the true identity of the man in purple has not yet been confirmed, so even though the five kingdoms have already had 10,000 determinations in their hearts, that person is the Emperor of Xiaotian, but as long as he does not admit it himself, then the six countries will continue to stay even if they do everything they can, but when the Emperor of Xiaotian appears in front of the world openly, everything will be different, because he is the lord of the Chu State, and his line and word are the lines and words of the Chu State, at this time, the Six Kingdoms have to re-weigh whether it is worth continuing to fight, because this emperor has always used his actions to show how firm his position is, and those who stayed behind were the test stones they used to draw conclusions. ”

"Tens of thousands of lives are just to get a conclusion, human life is cheaper than grass, is this the method of those in power?" Thinking of this, Lone Star felt a chill from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time deeply felt sad for those soldiers who died in vain, they only knew that the military order was like a mountain, but they could not guess that this was a battle without suspense, and their fate was destined to end before the war began.

"After that, how did the six countries react after that, or did they just swallow their anger?"

The shopkeeper didn't answer and asked: "Things have developed to this point, if the little brother is the Six Kingdoms, what will you do?"
