Chapter 305: Discordant Courts

"Wechen also contacted Mu Lanxu of Yamawonzhou, but he did not receive any reports of foreign fleets approaching the banks of our rivers, and he knew nothing about the affairs of the Bangladesh transport fleet. Therefore, Weichen angrily reprimanded Meng Guoda's concubine, and asked him to come up with conclusive evidence to prove that this matter is related to our country, and then talk about compensation. Zisi said.

"What else to talk about, immediately drive that horse away, it's really too deceitful!" Shaodian Dan fell into a state of rage, "Which of you has such a powerful surface force? The Xuanyuan family's navy is all on the sea, and they can't run through the Tongyuan River at all."

When something happened to the Meng fleet, Shaodian secretly told Gu, how could something that even Gu didn't know have anything to do with Shaodianguo! Their lives in Meng Guo were so valuable, and they also wanted me to cede Nannuma Prefecture to compensate, or should Gu give him Zhenjing. ”

Shaodian Zhang said: "Weichen suspects that this is a deliberate act by Meng State, in order to provoke disputes between the two countries and take advantage of the situation to occupy Shaodian's territory.

In order to prevent our country from being attacked by the enemy army as a precaution, the minister suggested that the Eighth Army Corps should rush to Nannuma Prefecture to garrison, and temporarily transfer the Seventh Army Corps in Haishan Prefecture to guard the capital of Zhencheng;

Linhai Prefecture organized two local corps to go to Nannuma Prefecture to prepare for contingencies, and Hailin Prefecture organized a local corps to go to Zhongwangzhou to stand by, and Zhongwangzhou entered a state of combat readiness. ”

"Never, never, my lord. Kong Shu, Minister of Culture and Education, stood up, "Shao Dianzhang's suggestion to work the people and hurt the money is really a policy to bring disaster to the country and the people!"

In Weichen's view, this matter is just a misunderstanding, and the location of the incident is adjacent to our country, and Meng Guo suspects that our country is excusable.

We only need to send a major minister to Meng to explain, and then give some condolences to the family of the deceased sailor, and then we can resolve this matter.

However, Shao Dianzhang wants to use the strength of several legions to put the people of Nannuma Prefecture in the flames of war, and if he doesn't do it, it will lead to war on the eastern border of our country, and his heart can be punished!"

The foundation of the Kong family is in Nannuma Prefecture, if you really want to do what Shao Dianzhang said, Nannuma Prefecture will cause a big war, and the interests of the Kong family will be greatly affected, no wonder Kong Shu is so anxious to jump out and accuse Shao Dianzhang.

Shaodian Dan heard the opposition of the ministers, calmed down and sat back on the throne.

Seeing that the boss's suggestion was refuted, someone from the Commander's Mansion stood up, and Xun Qi, the commander of the Logistics Department, came out and said: "King, Lord Kong's words are wrong, Meng Guo has no intention of negotiating with us at all, and he wants a Nannuma Prefecture when he opens his mouth."

Meng has been plotting against our country for a long time, if it weren't for the strength of our troops, they would have come over a long time ago, and the matter of the transport fleet is just an excuse, and we will not agree to Nannuma Prefecture, so that Meng can send troops to attack our country.

Let's not say that sending one important minister, even sending ten important ministers will not help, the strategy of the commander is not to take the initiative to provoke a war, but to send troops and horses to deter the enemy, and if you really want to fight, you can also adapt to the situation. ”

Before Xun Qi finished speaking, the Government Council stood up again.

Finance Minister Fan Yang said: "King, please listen to what Wei Chen said, what the Commander's Office said is all speculation, as the so-called sky-high asking price, paying back the money on the spot, Meng Guo wants Nannuma Prefecture as compensation is just asking for the price, they are still waiting for us to pay back."

If you think about it carefully, if they fight with the Meng State, will Cao and Qi stand idly by? They will definitely fall into the ground, and then China's eastern border will be plunged into war, and at least a dozen or so army corps will be involved in the big war.

The last time we entered the Qi State to fight, we grabbed some money and came back, but it was not enough to pay for the military expenses of the six legions we used, plus the lost property near Shuanglong City, the reserves of the treasury were reduced by half.

If more than a dozen legions fight, even if Weichen is sold, the treasury will not be able to come up with so much money. Instead of going to war with Meng for the sake of the battle of will, it is better to endure it and take out some money to break the fortune and prevent disasters, which is better than using swords and soldiers in vain. ”

Linhai Prefecture wants to set up two local legions, and the Fan family can't run away and has to pay for it, Fan Yang must first think about the family. He is also in charge of the treasury, and with the current financial situation of the Shaodian country, he really can't come up with the money and food to support the battle of more than a dozen legions.

"Ridiculous!" Yang Chao, the commander of the Military Command Department, angrily rebuked Fan Yang in person, "The matter of the Bangladesh transport fleet has nothing to do with our country, so why should we accept the blackmail of the Bangladesh State?"

Even if the Meng State does not want Nannuma Prefecture, as long as we compensate some money, the Kingdom will not be able to accept such conditions in humiliation.

The soldiers of the kingdom can die but must not live in shame, on behalf of the Yang family, I donate one million gold coins to replenish military funds, and the Yang family would rather go hungry than compromise with the Meng State. ”

Yao Xian of the Ministry of Agriculture and Industry originally had something to say, about Hailin Prefecture to form a local army to fight, but when Yang Chao said this, he hesitated.

The topic has risen to the aspect of honor, and if it goes on, it will be the face of the royal family, and Yao Xian knows that the Senate has agreed, and Shaodian Dan has the confidence to forcibly pass the plan of the Commander's Palace.

The Jiang family is also willing to donate one million gold coins to replenish military funds. Jiang Xi was a little helpless, his in-laws had expressed his position like this, he was still the coach this time, and he could only respond.

"The Long family is also willing to donate one million gold coins to replenish military funds. Long Kun said.

"The Gongsun family is also willing to donate one million gold coins to replenish military funds. "Gongsun Festival is reluctant in his heart.

The Xun family seconded. "Xun Qi has no opinion, if he doesn't have money, he, the logistics minister, will be ugly.

"Well, all Aiqing is doing their best for the country and the people, and they are deeply comforted. Seeing that the momentum of the people in the Government Council was weakened, Shaodian Dan immediately said, "How can the soldiers go out to fight for the country and let you pay for it."

Zisi, once the scale of the war expanded, ordered the whole country to collect a national protection tax, and asked the clan government to allocate funds to fill the national treasury.

Shao Dianzhang, immediately in accordance with the commander's office to mobilize troops and horses, if there is no comply, immediately beheaded, in order to set an example. ”

Shaodian Dan suppressed the opposition of the Government Council in the main hall of the government, forcibly passed the plan of the Commander's Mansion, and Shaodian Huan came to the magic tower of Guijing.

"Why don't you go over and take a look? This matter is a little strange, it doesn't look like someone below level 7 can do it. Shao Dianhuan came up politely and asked directly.

"I wanted to go and see it after I knew, but," Gui Jing paused and thought about it for a moment before saying, "Someone from above sent me a message saying that this matter is very involved, and it is not good for the entire Shenyuan Continent to make trouble, so we should not know anything." ”

"Above, again, we are going to kill a lot of people in the first sentence, are you sure that the upper head is not playing us?"

"Well, there's also the meaning of your ancestors, if you're not satisfied, you can go over there and ask. Guijing was also kept in the dark, and he knew no more than Shao Dianhuan.

Hearing the meaning of his ancestors, Shao Dianhuan was choked, and after a while, he said angrily: "Okay, as long as no one enters this palace, I don't care so many people who die." After saying that, he left in a huff.

#####ε€©ι—¨ι•‡δΈŠη©ΊδΉŒδΊ‘ε―†εΈƒ, the third wave of beasts has not yet arrived, and a heavy rain is about to fall. The terrain of Tianmen Town is low, and once it rains suddenly, the town will be flooded, and the area around the castle will also become a flood.

Liu Qingshan went to the magic tower to meet Rong Ci and asked, "Can the master stop the heavy rain from falling?"

"This cloud cover is so wide that even if I cast a magician, I can't blow it away, and the protective array can drain the water from the town, so you don't have to worry about that. "Rong Ci means that magic is not omnipotent.

"The depth of the water outside the town will reduce the height of the city wall in disguise, there has been a record of the siege of the city by water monsters in history, if there are also water monsters coming this time, I am afraid that the soldiers defending the city will have great casualties. Liu Qingshan is familiar with war examples, and has long studied all kinds of war situations that will appear.

"There is this possibility, so let's ask the magician to do his best to protect the defenders, and at the same time send a warning to the Commander's Palace, once the Tianmen Fortress Division has suffered too much loss, ask the rear legion to enter the town to support. "Rong Ci is guarding Tianmen Town, and coordinating the contact between all parties is one of the important responsibilities.

"Okay, with Master Lao paying attention to the battle situation, the Tianmen Fortress Division will not take half a step back until the last soldier. I'm worried that the beast tide will be too large and break through our defenses and penetrate deep into the King's territory, causing more casualties, and I hope that friendly forces will come to support in time. With the guarantee of Rongci, Liu Qingshan hurried back to command the upcoming battle with confidence.

As soon as Liu Qingshan returned to Beicheng Tower, it rained heavily in the world.

The bean-sized raindrops hit Ding Kui's face, and he was embarrassed that he couldn't take out the umbrella from the space ring, so he had to keep wiping the rain from his face with his hands. His companion Lei Feixiang may have been overexcited by buying leather armor, and the experienced former adventurer team member didn't bring rain gear like Ding Kui, and the small round shield only covered his head.

The other magicians of the town guard team had prepared umbrellas, and their companions were draped in rain cloths, far more leisurely than the embarrassed Ding Lei and the others.

The archers of the 7th Squadron wrapped their bows and arrows with tarpaulins, the bowstring would become softer when it absorbed water, the arrows would become heavier when wet, and heavy rain would reduce the power of the bows and arrows, and only high-level archers could maintain their lethality.

The helmets of the infantry and the fur caps of the archers protected their eyes, and the armor and leather armor could not prevent the penetration of rain, and the soldiers on the walls were soaked after a quarter of an hour of rain.

The autumn rain at the end of October is cold, and it can quickly take away body temperature, making the combat effectiveness of human soldiers greatly reduced. Liu Qingshan's worries were not unreasonable, and he could not withdraw the defenders to shelter from the rain, as doing so would undermine morale and expand the psychological impact of the rain on the soldiers.

What worries Liu Qingshan the most is the torrent on the surrounding high mountains, although it will not submerge the 50-meter-high city wall, but it will bring great impact to the east and west sections of the city wall. The water monsters launched a surprise attack underwater, and his soldiers could not resist it.

It seems that God deliberately wants to oppose Liu Qingshan, and half an hour after the torrential rain, there was a flood on the peaks on the east and west sides of Tianmen Town.

There were no wild beasts and demonic beasts in it, but they carried a large amount of mud and sand, and rushed directly to the east and west sections of the city wall, and some guards could not avoid it or were even buried in the mud and sand.
