Nanzhao Kunming.

The Duke of Qianguo also quickly received the holy decree from the imperial court, and the moment he saw this holy decree, he was dumbfounded......

He didn't expect that the emperor would let him defend to the death, and he must use his soldiers and horses to block King Annan outside.

You must try your best to block King Annan, even if you can't block it, you must let King Annan suffer heavy casualties!

The task given by the imperial court is very simple, that is, to use his own soldiers and horses to weaken the soldiers and horses under the command of King Annam.

Let him not have any chance to resist, let his uprising fail directly this time, and make him a sinner.

However, Qian Guogong was also thinking in his heart that these soldiers under his hands were all his brothers, and it took him so long to recruit these people under his hands.

And it was all trained for a long time, and it was really unbearable to let his brothers stop the invasion of King Annan.

On the other hand, he was not sure if he could defeat King Annan.

The name of King Annan is known to many people.

Everyone knows that King Annam is almost invincible in war, and people can still fight and win battles without soldiers, money and food......

You can imagine how strong this person is, and he is a tiger and wolf master.

The soldiers and horses under the hands of others are also one against ten.

What's more important is that the number of soldiers and horses is not much different from him, and the weapons are also very sophisticated, but he has carefully looked for some information.

“……”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, aren't you giving me a problem? You came up with such a trick, and now this thing has really changed. ”

"Haven't you thought that things have changed today? You don't know how to appease the ordinary people, but try your best to arrest the rebels.

Indeed, as the emperor, your throne is more important, but isn't it important for the dawn people in this world? ”

Qian Guogong was in a dilemma, and he was still hesitating in his heart.

He was thinking about a very important thing, whether he should do it or not, and if he did it, the people under him would also lose a lot......

If you don't do it, what will the emperor do? He has become a disloyal minister.

If King Annam conquers the world, it's fine, if King Annam can't conquer the world, then what if King Annam fails?

He needs to think carefully about the pros and cons, and he needs to spend a long time conducting a study.

……

Zhao Hengyi was marching all the way, and basically no one stopped the cities he encountered, and everyone knew that King Annan was very powerful.

Everyone is thinking, if King Annan takes the world, will their lives not be so bitter?

And the people of the world already have a deep grudge against the emperor, and this time is just a point of outbreak.

Everyone knows that the emperor is incompetent, and he has broken the hearts of many soldiers.

Since the last battle of Kagawa, many soldiers have quietly planted seeds in their hearts, thinking that this court is not reliable at all.

They were already in danger, and they stabbed them in the back.

And they also heard that General Zhao Hengyi encountered all kinds of strange things when he was fighting before, and it was the imperial court that asked them to send troops to fight, but in the end, the imperial court did not give a little support.

How ridiculous it is to let a big general take care of logistics.

If it weren't for the fact that the general himself had food in his hands, if it weren't for the fact that he had his own fiefdom, then this matter would have become much more serious.

Kunming City.

This is a very important city, and if you take here, the entire Nanzhao region will be captured.

In addition, after taking this one city, it will be much easier to travel to other regions.

Zhao Hengyi is fighting from south to north, and the difficulty is still very high.

There are many examples of fighting from the south to the north in history, but basically without exception, they are defeated!

There are many reasons for the failure, mainly because the folk customs in the north are too strong.

It's different in the south, most of them are soft and weak, so you can imagine how difficult it is.

If the Northern Expedition wants to win, it must have a sufficient number of soldiers, otherwise there is basically no chance of victory.

Zhao Hengyi also roughly estimated that the imperial court had about 300,000 soldiers and horses, and of these 300,000 soldiers and horses, 200,000 of them were super combative.

The remaining 100,000 are probably the soldiers and horses of logistics, as well as those firemen and so on.

Kunming City.

When he came to the bottom of this city, he was also hesitating in his heart.

Will Qianguo Gong stop it or not?

If he stopped, his 100,000 soldiers and horses only needed to be collected from other places, and then he could form a confrontation with them in an instant.

Then it will be very difficult for you to continue to attack.

"Alas......"

Qianguogong, what do you think?

Zhao Hengyi touched his forehead helplessly, at this time, he looked at it with a telescope, and many soldiers on the city wall were waiting for them, they were all patrolling non-stop, looking very serious.

It looks like it's going to be an uphill battle.

More crucially, he also saw cannons on the city walls.

It turned out that everything was ready, just waiting for him to come.

However, just as he was about to start fighting directly, a general sent by the Duke of Qianguo came to the barracks, and he slowly walked in and said.

"General, our father-in-law said that he invited you to the mountain to talk."

"This mountain is called Willow Mountain."

"Don't worry, there won't be any accidents, because there are no soldiers and horses hidden on that mountain!"

"Really?"

Zhao Hengyi was stunned for a moment, what does this mean? He must have been instructed by the imperial court, after all, he had also been grinding on the road for a long time.

The imperial court must have put all the treasures on the body of the Duke of Qianguo alone.

Thinking about it, Qian Guogong should be able to use the army under his command to successfully stop himself.

This matter is obvious, even a fool can figure it out, the emperor must want to do this, but whether the Duke of Qianguo agrees or not, this matter is difficult to say.

Zhang Can said with some worry next to him at this time.

"General, that's absolutely unacceptable!"

"It must not be like this!"

"What if they suddenly send some assassins to ambush you after we go up the mountain, or if something happens to you?"

"The Duke of Qianguo and you know each other, and the relationship is relatively good, but the difference in our positions now is also for ourselves, and he is for the court and the emperor!"

"This ......" Zhao Hengyi was actually still hesitating, he really wanted to talk to Qianguo Gong about this matter, and maybe there would be some chance.

Qian Guogong is still very smart, not as stupid as he imagined......
