Two days later, King Dongchuan appeared in the military formation outside the city of Marudu, and behind him were dozens of subordinate generals and an army of 40,000. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Originally, King Dongchuan wanted to rely on the fortification of Marudu Castle to resist the Yuanqi army, but at the last moment, he changed his mind and decided to compete with Yuanqi's troops outside the city.

The main reason for this is that every time Yuan Qi occupies a city, he will leave a hundred soldiers to teach the working skills of ordinary working people in the city, although a hundred people are not much, but in a few days, Yuan Qi has occupied sixteen cities, therefore, in his troops, the non-combat attrition has reached nearly 2,000 people, and now there are only more than 13,000 people following Yuan Qi's side, which makes Dongchuan Wang greatly relieved, he believes that with the 40,000 army he has gathered, it is not difficult to break or even eliminate more than 10,000 people in Yuan Qi, and it will definitely make his prestige go to a higher levelto better rule over your people.

Coming out of the crowd, King Dongchuan came to the forefront of the battle formation and looked at Yuan Qi two hundred steps away on the opposite side. The king of Dongchuan shouted: "Yuan Qi, you started a war for no reason, invaded our Goguryeo, and caused the lives of the people of the two countries to be miserable! Today, this king wants you to come and go!"

Yuan Qiduan sat on the jade unicorn, instigated the unicorn to slowly take two steps forward, and said loudly: "King Dongchuan! You are tyrannical, so that the people under your rule are panicked all day long, hungry and poor, and the people are not able to make a living, this king will seek justice for these people on behalf of the Son of Heaven today!"

With Yuan Qi's generous statement, more than half of the dozens of generals behind King Dongchuan bowed their heads to hide their resentful gazes. Yes, as Yuan Qi said. None of these generals behind King Dongchuan were fools, so how could they not understand King Dongchuan's thoughts?

Zhuge Liang rode his horse to Yuan Qi's side and shouted to the 40,000 Goguryeo soldiers: "Everyone! This time I came here to uphold the will of the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven for all people in the world. The Son of Heaven has given you land, and you have given you money and food, so that you may multiply here from generation to generation, and he has never done you half a penny. However, your king of Dongchuan has been distorting the facts, instilling in you hostility to the Son of Heaven, and instigating you to be enemies with me. And they have filled their own pockets and occupied the land that belonged to you? Who is the greedy and unbridled your money and food? It is him! It is the king of Dongchuan who you consider to be your fellow people!"

Zhuge Liang stretched out his hand, pointed straight at the king of Dongchuan, and continued: "Your king of Dongchuan, for his own interests, did not hesitate to recruit military horses from seven cities in the south to come to guard the pill capital, as a soldier, it is admirable that you obey orders. But think about what kind of precarious situation your parents, your wives and children, will they fall into without your protection? If Champion Hou had not come with sincerity and friendliness, your family members in the Seven Southern Cities would have died on the streets long ago! Champion Hou upholds the mercy of Heaven and treats your family members well, who do you say, who is really for the people?"

Zhuge Liang's words made the generals of the other half behind King Dongchuan also bow their heads. Although Goguryeo was a kingdom, its territory was only as large as a county in Liaodong, and the geographical restrictions determined the population of Goguryeo. In the land of Goguryeo, the sparse population has created a slightly famous family in the country, all of whom are in-laws, and many of them are inextricably linked with the residents of the seven southern cities, and Zhuge Liang's words deeply touched the softest place in their hearts. The king of Dongchuan ordered to forcibly transfer all the soldiers of the seven cities to guard the pill capital, which will inevitably make the defense of the seven cities fall into an unprecedented emptiness, as long as there are hundreds of enemy troops, you can easily control a city, if Yuan Qi is really ruthless, an order, I am afraid that all the residents in the seven cities will fall to the ground, but Yuan Qi did not do that, compared with what the king of Dongchuan did, Yuan Qi is more like a compatriot who cares about the clansmen.

After setting aside a period of time and letting the Goguryeo generals secretly make comparisons, Zhuge Liang threw another bombshell: "The majesty of my Heavenly Kingdom is inviolable, and it is the will of God that the champion Hou will lead his troops to come this time." The gods have protected our army all the way, and those who dare to go against the will of heaven and earth will surely be punished by the gods, who will direct the swords of our army and cut off the heads of those who are stubborn!"

Since studying the thirteen chapters of Guigu with Yuan Qi, Zhuge Liang's debating skills have become sharper, and his words of grace and power have made every Goguryeo person except the king of Dongchuan have heavy worries in their hearts. The miracles that fell from the sky had already been heard by those present, and there were even many people who saw the majestic ice city outside Liaodong City with their own eyes. The Goguryeo people have always admired the gods, and they have long been in awe of the fact that the Yuanqi army was protected by the gods, and at this moment hearing Zhuge Liang's words, the fear in their hearts became stronger, and a small number of soldiers had even lost their weapons in their hands, and bowed down to salute in the direction of Yuanqi.

Seeing this, the king of Dongchuan roared angrily: "Stupid! Those miracles from heaven are all made up by them, and they all take up arms for this king and pick them up!"

Some Goguryeo people who had lost their weapons, under the reprimand of King Dongchuan, picked up the weapons they had thrown on the ground again, and their dull eyes showed their inner contradictions at the moment, and their hearts were in turmoil.

Without letting these people's doubts last long, Yuan Qi waved his hand behind him, and the battle formation of the Yan army suddenly split into two parts, and in the center of the battle array, a passage that could accommodate more than ten people in parallel came out. Thousands of Goguryeo people, supporting each other, appeared in the passage of the battle array, walking towards the forefront of the battle array. They are the inhabitants of the Seven Cities in the South. In order to avoid the loss of combat effectiveness under Yuan Qi's command, and at the same time, in order to save the families of these people who have already stepped on the battlefield from the tragedy of being killed by the knife, Zhuge Liang personally lobbied door-to-door, patiently explained the reason to these people, and asked them to come to the battlefield with the Yan army, and called on those families who were requisitioned to Marudu to put down the weapons in their hands.

Zhuge Liang did this, it was carefully considered, at present, the war is tight, and the entire defense line in the north, every inch of the place, is facing the invasion of the Xianbei people, and the war may ignite at any time, leaving Yuan Qi to pacify Goguryeo and Buyeo, there is not much time. As Deng Zhi said, if Goguryeo can be pacified in a short period of time, it will not only play a positive role in the entire war, but also turn Goguryeo into a stable rear and shorten the supply line for the front-line sergeants. Using the inhabitants of the Seven Cities to inspire Goguryeo soldiers was undoubtedly an excellent method.

The king of Dongchuan has always been high, how could he recognize these ordinary people in front of him? He angrily reprimanded: "Yuan Qi! Don't think that you can disturb the morale of our army by finding some people to pretend to be the king's people, these tricks are too ridiculous!"

King Dongchuan doesn't know the person in front of him, but it doesn't mean that everyone doesn't know. A general behind the king of Dongchuan suddenly turned over and dismounted, and greeted an old man in the Yan army's battle array: "Father, why are you here?"

As the general spoke, more and more people greeted the Goguryeo crowd in the Yan army's battle array, or saluted. All of a sudden, across the battlefield, relatives on both sides wept and complained to each other, crying, shouting, and greetings...... And so on.
