Chapter 306: The Xia Army Besieges the Capital
The imperial pass was lost, and the last self-proclaimed indestructible defense line of the Wu State completely collapsed, and the army of the Xia State was like a broken bamboo since then.
The surging Xia army surrounded the capital of Wu, and even the people of Wu were in a catastrophe.
In the palace filled with a dead and silent atmosphere, King Wu sat on the throne with a heavy face, looking at the ministers in the hall who did not dare to breathe.
The fall of the Imperial Pass really surprised the confident Wu Guoren, and the news that a mysterious person broke the door alone sprinkled a frost in the hearts of Wu Guoren.
For the fall and defeat of the army, King Wu did not get too entangled, the victory or defeat of the battlefield was just commonplace for him, the king of his career, but the mysterious man who broke the gate of the imperial pass alone in the night sรจ pierced into King Wu's heart like a hard thorn.
"Could it be that the national teacher of the Xia Kingdom also went out with the army?"
This was King Wu's first reaction after receiving the news, but he soon rejected his idea.
Regardless of whether the national division could go out with the army, and with the true strength of the national division of the Xia country, King Wu would never believe that he had the terrifying power to destroy the city gates.
When the army of the Xia Kingdom was pouring in, there was a chaotic situation in the palace where the ministers were arguing with each other, and the ministers on both sides of the main battle and the main surrender actually ignored the face of the king of Wu, and openly shouted in the main hall, without a trace of the courtiers' courtesy.
In the end, the dispute between the two sides ended with the main battle faction leaving the hall in vain, and the main battle faction led by the commander of the Wu army left angrily, without taking the person on the throne above the main hall in the slightest.
When the catastrophe is coming, the country will not be a country, people think more about how to save their lives, and who cares about a king who is about to die.
The blatant departure of the main battle faction made King Wu furious, and immediately ordered the imperial army to hunt down and kill the commander of the Wu army, and exterminate all henchmen who followed him.
After the ruthless royal order of King Wu, the Lord sent a slyly silence, but no one dared to speak lightly. However, when the angry King Wu saw this group of waste-like courtiers in the palace, he inevitably felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
In the east of the continent, although Wu is not a big country, its strength is not inferior to Xia, the strongest country in the eastern continent. Moreover, the diligent government of King Wu, who worked hard to govern, increased his national strength, not only militarily with the strength to fight with the Xia State, but also diplomatically able to unite other small countries to fight against the Xia Division.
At the same time, the ambitious King Wu also saw the arbitrariness and recklessness of this Xia king, and firmly believed that as long as he had enough patience, it was only a matter of time before the Xia Kingdom collapsed.
Although Shang Jia's succession made King Wu really worried for a while, the upper echelons of the Xia Kingdom had become a fixed formula, and it was inevitable that it would fall apart. Therefore, King Wu had already planned in his heart, as long as the Wu army avoided the edge of the Xia army and started from the upper echelons of the Xia State by political means, then it would be extremely easy to disintegrate the Xia State.
However, King Wu's confidence was completely shattered after the fall of the Imperial Pass, and a sad and sad feeling of "God does not help me" arose.
Under the chaos of war, the Wu people seem to have forgotten to find the infantry soldier who played a huge role in the battlefield and caused the Wu army to break the siege of the Xia army, and this mysterious soldier is now protecting the enemies of the Wu state as the captain of the guard of the Xia army commander.
Although the army of Xia besieged the city, it did not launch a siege battle, but constantly used drums, shouts and even ridicule to kill the hearts of the people of Wu in the city.
The leader of the main battle faction, who was also the commander of the Wu army, was hunted down by the royal army under the king, and his henchmen were also hanged. And the direct consequence of this is that the army of Wu has no commander, just like a mecha without the core of the operation.
It wasn't until King Wu saw the head of the commander brought by the imperial army that he realized his recklessness, but it was too late at this moment. The lord of Wu finally made a bad decision in his lifetime, and this decision would send him to the guillotine.
At night, the camp of the Xia army was brightly lit, and Shang Jia's commander's tent was even brighter, as if he was celebrating the impending victory.
Shang Jia had just finished discussing Mingri's battle plan with his generals, and when the generals left, Shang Jia could finally take a short nap and sit down in a comfortable seat.
Qin Tao stood beside Shang Jia, quietly looking at the female commander in the seat, since he had planned in his heart to change the fate of the woman in front of him, he had become an inseparable guard.
But this kind of behavior made Shang Jia feel a little awkward, although she didn't dislike Qin Tao's behavior, but after all, they were different from men and women.
The soft eyebrows frowned slightly, and Shang Jia muttered a little helplessly: "Don't protect me like this......"
Qin Tao on the side was unaware, as if this kind of behavior was his mission, and he didn't respond to Shang Jia's words that seemed to be complaining.
Turning his head and sighing helplessly, Shang Jia slowly stood up from his seat, facing Qin Tao's big and beautiful eyes fixed on that handsome face, and then said, "Commander Ben is going to rest." โ
"Oh. Qin Tao replied solemnly, but still had no intention of leaving.
"I said I was going to rest!" Shang Jia raised his voice in vain.
"Ah......" Qin Tao only came back to his senses at this time, and immediately stuck out his tongue at Shang Jia, and then walked quickly towards the outside of the tent.
Shang Jia, who was speechless, shook his head lightly, and couldn't help muttering "idiot", but he was very happy in his heart.
Yin Ying, whose left foot had just stepped on the tent, Qin Tao suddenly turned his head and said to Shangjia: "I'm just outside the tent, something called me." After speaking, a puff of smoke disappeared into the shadow.
Shang Jia just wanted to stop him, but Qin Tao had already come out of the account, and secretly smiled beautifully, Shang Jia's heart suddenly swelled up with a little woman's shyness, and a sense of security rose with it.
Qin Tao sat down outside the tent, looking at the starry sky in the night sky, there seemed to be an inexplicable melancholy between his eyebrows, and his thoughts drifted into the distance with this thought......
If this prison is for Qin Tao to change Shang Jia's fate, then he is willing to stay here until the mission is completed.
For Shang Jia, Qin Tao has always had a complicated feeling, he can't say that he likes it, but he is very willing to be with this rather manly woman, and this feeling may seem more like a buddy to outsiders.
The light in Shang Jia's big tent went out, and Qin Tao's heart naturally let go, closing his eyes, and his spiritual sense, which was still working, constantly probed the surrounding environment to prevent danger from coming.
As the night deepened, the lights of the barracks were only sporadically on, and the generals and soldiers entered the dream realm one after another, where there may be relatives far away from home, maybe there is an upcoming victory, and maybe there are beauties haunted by dreams......
At this time, Shang Jia's big tent slowly opened, and Shang Jia, who was dressed in a pale yellow silk brocade robe, walked out of the tent and sat down quietly beside Qin Tao.
"Why did you come out?" Qin Tao, who had already detected Shang Jia, immediately asked.
Shang Jia, who took off her military uniform, had a gentle beauty, and her long black hair like a waterfall naturally hung down at the back of her head, making her beauty even more intoxicating.
After spurring his mouth, Shang Jia stretched out his arm and replied, "I can't sleep." โ
Qin Tao looked at Shang Jia, who was close at hand, and smiled: "I think you are scared." โ
Shang Jia, who was like a little woman, snorted lightly and said, "I am a commander-in-chief, how can I be afraid." โ
Qin Tao was still smiling, but he didn't say anything, and his gaze returned to the stars in the night sky.
Shang Jia's eyebrows frowned, touched Qin Tao with his elbow, and said, "Won't you say something?"
Qin Tao turned his head and blinked in surprise, and said innocently: "I said eldest miss, it's because you can't sleep......
"Yes, Miss Ben can't sleep, but shouldn't you, as Miss Ben's guard, say something to Miss Ben at this time to relieve her boredom. As he spoke, Shang Jia's snow-white arm appeared from his sleeve, and his left hand pinched Qin Tao's ear fiercely.
"Oh, you're really doing it!" Qin Tao tilted his head and said bitterly.
Shang Jia pulled Qin Tao's ear closer, and said confidently: "Do you think that it is so easy to be the guard of this commander? I didn't let you come to eat rice." โ
That being said, Ke Shangjia's face and heart were already full of joy, and a delicious taste was mixed with it for a long time.
"Good, good, good...... Then you have to let me go first......" Qin Tao screamed bitterly, tilting his head towards Shang Jia. (To be continued.) )
