Chapter 225: The Five-Nation Alliance

Feng Idiot looked at Uncle You's line of sight and nodded heavily.

If the little emperor is bullied by the Marquis of Baishan, we will definitely stand up for you!

......

The Great Qianhou State, inside the palace hall.

All the courtiers gathered together, and everyone was anxious like ants on a hot pot, pacing back and forth, clutching the letter from Su Xiao for weeks, and his heart was up and down.

More than a month ago, Su Xiao was ordered to go to the Baishan Marquis State, although he had the backing of the Great Qianhou State, but before the Gao Dynasty did not go back, his situation was indeed better, but after the Gao Dynasty went back, his situation was extremely dangerous.

Although Jing Xiaoman and Taoist priests were secretly helping, they deliberately took advantage of the discord between the general and Xiangguo to create contradictions, and let them delay time by infighting, but since the return of the Gao Dynasty, they immediately twisted into a rope.

Su Xiao couldn't take advantage of it, especially the fact that the envoys of the other vassal states died in the Daqian Marquis State, so that the lord of the Baishan Marquis State was one head and two heads.

The main state had to deal with those of his allies on the one hand, and also dealt with Su Xiao, and in the end he actually had Su Xiao monitored, which was not too bad.

Because Su Xiao was being monitored, Jing Xiaoman lost his backbone, and was eager to kill Xiangguo to avenge Qiu Yu, so he made a dangerous move, and after successfully assassinating Xiangguo during the night shift, he dragged half his life and escaped from the imperial city.

Later, he was rescued by a Taoist priest on the way to escape, which barely saved half of his life, and Su Xiao was still in prison at this time.

Because Xiangguo was killed, and Gao Chao died only ten days after returning to China, and then there was pressure from the four vassal states, the lord of the Baishan Marquis actually gathered the soldiers and horses of the five vassal states within a month to send troops against the Daqian Marquis.

The reason for sending troops this time was that Su Xiao assassinated Xiangguo.

Cheng Zhou held Su Xiao's bloody letter and kept looking outside the hall:

"Your Majesty's order has not come back? According to the agreement, it is time to come back, and now Su Xiao has come to write a bloody letter, saying that he has killed the Xiangguo of the Marquis of Baishan, and the pressure of their five vassal states is coming, and the army will definitely arrive under my western city in less than three days. ”

"How's that okay? What can I do?"

He was already flustered, but when he looked at the courtiers who were helpless and disturbed, he was even more panicked, and kept going back and forth.

Qian Lao's already old face was now wrinkled with worry, he walked a few steps quickly and lowered his voice:

"Lord Cheng, didn't you see Your Majesty when you came back? Why hasn't Your Majesty come back yet? Now that their five kingdoms are attacking, what should we do with the Great Qianhou Kingdom?"

"Now that the strength of the entire country is only 150,000, how can we defeat the five-nation alliance?"

"Qian Lao, I did see Your Majesty, but I don't know, it's just that since Your Majesty went, the Fengyu clan has not given us a battle report. ”

Cheng Zhou's voice dropped even lower.

At this time, those ministers still thought that their majesty was in retreat and cultivating, after all, if the news of the emperor personally leading troops to help the demon clan spread, the situation in the court would definitely be turbulent.

These days, it has been Qian Lao, and a few of them are stabilizing the situation.

"Old Qian, Lord Zhou, you should hurry up and invite Your Majesty out, now it's the Five Nations Alliance!"

"Yes, if it doesn't work, let Cao Tong take the lead and borrow troops from the Dawu Dynasty, right?"

"The strength of the Five-Nation Coalition is not less than 500,000! We don't have so many troops in our country now. ”

"My Daqianhou Kingdom really hasn't stopped for a day, fighting the demon clan and beating the human race, and I don't worry about any of them. ”

The courtiers were complaining.

Cao Ze looked at them coldly, although he was extremely anxious in his heart, he didn't show it at all on his face, and said calmly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty will be able to leave the customs soon, and our plan for now is to send troops to the western border to hold on to Xihua City in the west, so as to buy time for Your Majesty. ”

Cao Ze, you can be regarded as speaking, and your speech means that if there is an accident, you can let the Dawu Dynasty come forward.

Hearing this, Cheng Zhou was thinking about the safest way in his heart:

"What Commander Cao said is, then I will lead 100,000 troops to Xihua City, swear to defend Xihua City, and as for the imperial city, it will be handed over to you!"

"Good. ”

Cao Ze agreed.

"No, no, the five-nation alliance army is at least 500,000, and we only have 100,000, how can we fight?"

Yi Wenchen jumped out and denied it again and again.

"There are too few troops, we can't have any advantage at all, so if we go to death, we might as well hold the imperial city. ”

"Yes, we also annoyed the five countries this time, and if we hadn't killed their envoys, things wouldn't have developed to this point. ”

"Your Majesty shouldn't support the demon clan at this time, it's still the support of hundreds of thousands of people, now it's okay, we can't protect ourselves. ”

Other civil servants began to dig through old accounts.

As soon as these words came out, the court, which was originally quite reasonable, instantly set off a war of mutual accusations, and the civil officials said that the military attaché was not, why did he have to provoke the five countries of them.

The military attache said that civilian officials did not understand war, and they were still turning over old accounts at this time.

For a while, there was a crowd in the court, like a vegetable market, and even some civil servants had to start with the military attaché.

No matter how much Qian Lao and the three of them shouted, they couldn't persuade them, and they stared at the chaotic courtiers at a loss.

"Report! The five-nation alliance will arrive in Xihua City in western China tomorrow!"

A high-pitched emergency broke through the quarrel of the courtiers.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow will come?"

"How can it be so fast? Didn't you say there were three more days?"

"Are the Five Nations Coalition Insane? Do you want the life of my Great Qianhou State?"

The courtiers were in an uproar.

Above the noisy hall, the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in such a situation, we can only follow the instructions of Lord Cao Zecheng Zhou first, and send 100,000 troops to Xihua City!"

Qian Lao stepped forward and said loudly.

"Can this work? As soon as the 100,000 army comes out, there will only be 50,000 soldiers in our imperial city, can these people defend our imperial city?"

"What about Your Majesty? What about our Majesty? Your Majesty hasn't come out at this time?"

"It's been more than a month, and your majesty can't come out of retreat early?"

It is clear that the courtiers did not believe in Cheng Zhou's arrangement at all, they only believed in their little emperor.

Just when Cheng Zhou finally thought of the wording to persuade them, Xiao Linzi suddenly ran into the main hall and shook hands:

"Your Majesty's will, all the courtiers will take the order!"

Your Majesty is out of the customs?

Your Majesty has returned from the Demon Clan?

Sure enough, it's Your Majesty, and it's always so timely!

The courtiers were stunned and hurriedly knelt down.

"Wait for the order!"

"Your Majesty's handwriting, the Marquis of Baishan sent troops to my Great Qianhou State within my expectations, I have already sent 150,000 troops to Xihua City in the west, and now, I ordered Zuo Qing to lead 100,000 to support Xihua City and join me, Cheng Zhou and Cao Ze to guard the imperial city, and wait for me to return!"

Xiao Linzi is sonorous words, and his eyes are dazzled when he reads.
