Withdraw the Great Army?

The minister guessed right, as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Hou went straight away!

"The throne of the Youwang who is fighting will leave all the things in the imperial city, and if you don't give him some color, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in your heart!"

Thinking of the embarrassment of that night, Shen Hou still can't let go.

The dignified Hou Ye of Zhou was forced to flee overnight by a waste emperor, and at this moment he has become the laughing stock of all the princes!

That's it?

It is difficult to say what the other vassal states will think of him in the future? It is difficult to say whether he will be able to stand upright in the future.

"......"

The minister was too frightened to speak.

The grain and grass consumed by the 200,000 army every day is really not a small amount, and the territory occupied by the Shen State is only 500 miles in radius, and the small one cannot be smaller.

In this great drought, this land was used to feed the entire Shen country's 500,000 army.

Not to mention trapping the Phantom King, it is difficult to survive by yourself.

Being self-willed is not what a qualified emperor should have after all.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates have a plan that can let my Shen Guo tide over the difficulties!"

Seeing that the situation was at an impasse, a middle-aged man in a scribe's uniform with a gleam in his eyes stepped forward.

His name is Shen Tu, he is one of the three eighth-level martial artists of Shen Kingdom, and he is Shen Hou's right-hand man!

"Hmm, what is Tu'er's plan?" Hearing this, Shen Hou turned around.

This Shentu is a distant nephew of his, who was included in the house when he saw that his talent was extremely high, and has been following him since then.

"Your Majesty, there is a big river in the territory of this dog Rong country called Ma Lian River, if we borrow water from the dog Rong and dig a groove to drain it, we will definitely be able to solve this urgent need!"

Shen Tu's eyes were burning, don't look at him as an eighth-level martial artist, his resourcefulness is also quite good.

"Borrow water?"

Shen Hou moved, but soon thought of something,

"Since we want to drink water from the meanders of the river, the water of the Wei River in our country is not much wider than the Namalian River, so why bother to seek the near and far?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know that although the Wei River is wide, the terrain is very low and the water flow is extremely fast, if it is dug rashly, it will not only cost a lot of manpower, but also may divert the Wei River, which will bring great trouble to my Shen country."

"But this Malian River is different, this river is high, the water flow is small, just a little drainage, open the estuary, can let the water into the Shenguo ......."

I have to say that Shen Tu's ability is really good, in just a short period of time, he can say things so clearly,

Obviously, he had sensed the seriousness of the matter before and did his homework in advance.

"Your Majesty, what King Tu said is right, at the moment, as long as the dog Rong country agrees to borrow water, as long as the drought is solved, and then the army is increased in the imperial city of the Great Zhou, there is also confidence......"

Here, seeing Shen Hou's intentions, the courtiers who had spoken before hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.

Anyway, it's really taboo to send troops at this moment!

Silence! After a long time of incense, Shen Hou turned around,

"Hmph, then let go of the Youwang for the time being, but I still have water to borrow from Shen Guo, what does he have in the imperial city?"

After talking to himself, he passed the order.

He agreed to withdraw 200,000 troops, and at the same time sent an envoy to the country of Inujung, so as to solve the problem of the drought in the shortest possible time.

.......

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and there is not a little dark cloud to cover it, making the whole land like day.

In the imperial city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, many people did not rest, but looked up at the sky, still chatting in front of the courtyard.

The sound of crickets sounded from time to time, adding a little anxiety and impatience.

"Alas, it looks like tomorrow is another sunny day, it's really terrible!"

"Who's to say it's not? If it doesn't rain again, the harvest will be completely wiped out this year, so what will we eat? Just a little bit of food from home!"

"Although His Majesty has divided the fields for us, what is the difference between dividing and not dividing in the event of a great drought?"

"By the way, I heard that Your Majesty will go out of the city tomorrow to personally inspect and find a solution!"

"Alas, inspection, alas, how can there be a solution to this kind of thing, he just wants to comfort us!"

"Actually, instead of going out of the city to inspect, it is better to let Your Majesty hold a ceremony to worship the heavens and ask for rain from the heavens..."

Several middle-aged men shook their heads again and again, their eyes full of helplessness.

They know that they can't blame their own majesty for this kind of thing, but if the matter is not resolved, there will be a pimple in their hearts.

"Hey, isn't that Huaiying?"

At this time, a gray-clothed young man in the distance looked at the bright moon in the sky like a millstone, shook his head and sighed, turned around and was about to walk into the house.

"Huaiying, you have a lot of ghost ideas on weekdays, but you are talking about this drought, what should we do?"

Then a man shouted at the top of his voice.

"Alas, Uncle San, I'm just a scholar, and I'm really ...... about things like the drought."

Seeing this, the young man shook his head and smiled bitterly and walked over.

"Scholar, I believe you are a ghost!" Hearing this, the men all rolled their eyes.

Don't look at their distant nephew who looks weak on the surface, he is actually a top master.

Some villagers once saw that he flew the eaves and walked on the wall like walking on the ground, and even killed the fierce beasts in the mountains with one punch... That's not all, he once made a few friends, all of whom were well-known masters in the rivers and lakes.

"Don't hide it, what kind of tricks are you playing in front of your uncle!"

Then the men spoke, their eyes full of anticipation.

Di Huaiying, the rising star of Dijia Village, has solved too many problems for them on weekdays......

"Alas, uncles, don't hide it, my nephew really has no solution, I originally thought that I could borrow water from the Wei River, but the flow of the Wei River is really turbulent, the terrain is low, and the entire Wei River is flowing along the foot of Qi Mountain, and it is difficult to lead the water to the vicinity of the imperial city!"

After a moment of silence, Di Huaiying shook his head helplessly.

He didn't lie to these villagers, but there really was no way.

There was even bad news that was not told to the villagers, that is, observing the sky and finding that in the past month, it still did not rain near the Great Zhou Dynasty....

"Huaiying, this is not like you!"

The men said this, but they chuckled in their hearts, because it was the first time that Di Huaiying had such a look on his face.

"Uncle, nephew is really powerless, I can only see how Your Majesty solves this matter tomorrow!"

In order not to hit the man's confidence, Di Huaiying thought for a moment and spoke again.

"Your Majesty? You can't solve it if you're so smart, but Your Majesty can solve it?"

The men were completely stunned.

At this moment, they really believed that even the capable Di Huaiying couldn't do anything about this matter.

"Alas!"

With a sigh, there was a dead silence in front of the court.

However, what these men don't know is that while they are talking about the great drought,

The palace, the dormitory, and under the lights, in front of Ji Xuan was also a topographic map of hundreds of miles near the imperial city.

"If you want to save the fertile land, you just need water!"

Finally, Ji Xuan raised his head and set his eyes on the Wei River at the foot of Qishan Mountain!
