Chapter 349 Great Changes! Doom Never Comes!

So was the situation in Capital city of southern ou as dangerous as the one in the report?

No!

The truth is, it's even more dangerous.

Yue kingdom's army was baptized like never before.

The baptism of blood and life.

Zhang Chong led 5,000 troops to defend White night county, and Su Nan's army outnumbered 30,000 at most.

It took more than half a month.

That battle was already a terrible one.

But compared to the Capital city of southern ou defense, it was very childish.

The battle in The capital of the southern ou kingdom began almost from the first day and was horrifying.

Everyone knew that the samurai were very brave.

But I didn't expect to be so crazy.

This posture was more than fearless of death?

It was a bit of a fight to the death.

Zhu Lin's garrison was nearly 100,000, and Jinjun's army was also 100,000.

It was said that the attackers would need at least two or three times more troops.

One against one, there was no way to fight.

Not to mention that Jinjun didn't have any large-scale siege equipment.

But on the first day of the war, they were almost washed up on the top of the city.

The five-foot-high city wall was not an awe-inspiring height for the sand barbarian warriors.

The group of people rushed up carrying crooked siege ladders.

There were siege ladders to climb up, but they had to climb up even if they didn't do it. They were climbing up like geckos with two iron claws in their hands.

The Yue kingdom army had never seen such a frenzy.

At first, he was almost blindfolded and almost fell.

However, zhu lin was one of the most elite troops in Yue kingdom after all. After being caught off guard at first, he immediately organized a fierce counterattack and suppressed the attack of the barbarian army.

Then, the two sides fell into a tug-of-war.

All in all, the Yue kingdom army had the upper hand in the first five days, after all, as the city's defenders.

There were countless rolls of wood, stones, oil, and so on.

However, the sand barbarian army of the jin jun also had a trump card.

That's a bow and arrow!

Every samurai was good at shooting, and every one of them shot their bows and arrows far away.

Although it was a big loss to shoot from the ground to the city wall, the difference in the number of archers between the two sides was too great.

The shaman warriors hunted in the jungle for many years, and almost every one of them was a archer.

In Yue kingdom, only specialized archer teams were equipped with bows and arrows, and even their archery skills were lagging behind.

As a result, the snipers of the barbarians brought astonishing casualties to the Yue kingdom army.

The situation changed again on the seventh day.

The balance of victory slid towards Jinjun.

No one else, because the Yue kingdom army was less resilient than the shaman warriors.

After seven days of fierce fighting, the Yue kingdom garrison became more and more tired, and its morale gradually dropped.

The war was far more brutal than expected, so the consumption of various materials was much faster than expected.

The rolling wood, stones, and oil on the city wall were getting less and less.

After a few days of war, the barbarian army became more and more adept at siege.

The point was that they were facing such high casualties and their morale was still high.

After seven days of war, these barbarian warriors were still full of fighting spirit and killing spirit.

This was also determined by their special living environment.

Most of the sand barbarians were still barbarian tribes and still depended on hunting for a living. Once the sand barbarian warriors entered the forest to hunt, they often did not return home for ten days and a half months.

Their living conditions were too bad, so they trained their amazing resilience and will.

This time, Jinjun unified the entire sand barbarians and Great southern country rose.

This greatly inspired the honor of the sand barbarian warriors, and countless sand barbarian mercenaries came to run.

These mercenaries were all born as slaves in the western regions.

They grew up fighting for a living, not only with people, but also with beasts.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness, the shaman warriors really far surpassed the soldiers of the country.

Finally!

The battle broke a certain balance!

Once again, the barbarian warriors charged up the city wall.

This time, they were not pushed down.

There were more and more people rushing up the city wall!

The entire defense line of the western city wall almost collapsed and was about to fall.

General Zhu Lin's eyes almost cracked.

In the shortest time possible, the marching master had written a few battle reports and sent them to princess Ning Luo, Nangong Ao and Zhu Rong as fast as possible. Although three days ago he sensed that the war was not good, he had asked for help from Nangong ao and princess ning luo in advance.

It's over! It's over!

General Zhu Lin was almost frozen.

Then...

He led the elite warriors of the Zhu shi family to the top.

Zhu Lin took the lead, and thousands of Zhu shi warriors fought madly behind him.

However...

Even so, they could not resist the attack of the barbarians.

There were still more and more barbarian warriors on the city wall!

Zhu Lin was almost desperate.

This was the capital of The southern ou kingdom, and once it fell, Sand city and Fallen leaves city could not stop it.

Once Jinjun took this city, his morale would soar!

At this time, Zhu Lin thought of his father's eyes and the prince's expectations.

If it really fell, how could I, Zhu Lin, return to the capital?

Why not just die here!

However!

Zhu Lin should not die!

At this very moment.

The dust was rolling in the north and in the east.

The whole ground was shaking!

Princess Ning Luo led the army to help, Nangong proudly led the army to help. Three days ago, they had just received a letter of help when they sent out.

The two men did not have much reinforcements, only 25,000.

But it changed the situation on the battlefield.

Jinjun's army had to be divided into 20,000 to defend against Nangong ao and ning luo's army.

The strength of the siege was greatly weakened.

And with the arrival of reinforcements, the morale of Zhu Lin's defenders rose.

Finally...

After paying countless costs.

Zhu Lin's army once again pushed the sand barbarian army down the city.

The western city wall of Capital of the southern ou kingdom was preserved!

After a while, general Zhu Lin almost collapsed to the ground!

Nangong ao and ning luo's 25,000 troops and Jinjun's army fought fiercely on the field for half an hour.

There were casualties on both sides.

But Ning Luo and Nangong Ao's army suffered far more casualties.

But Jinjun's army seemed to have exhausted its last strength.

The sun was setting and the two sides stopped fighting!

Nangong ao and princess ning luo entered The capital of the southern ou kingdom.

This battle was full of danger!

However, the capital of the southern ou kingdom could not be preserved.

But...

The whole game changed completely.

Originally, the three generals were guarding the three cities of the southern ou kingdom, and Zhu Rong Governor general was in the back of Tiannan city to help.

As a result, the Jinjun army was so powerful that the three generals met early in The capital of the southern ou kingdom.

This is like the domino, creating a chain effect!

When Nangong ao and ning luo arrived, the other two cities in the southern ou kingdom were empty. Jinjun would probably take the opportunity to divide his forces and attack them.

What should I do?

Of course, they could only move south from the second battlefield, the Tiannan city defense line.

But in this way, the whole rear area was empty.

...

In the governor's mansion of the southern ou.

Zhu Lin, Nangong Ao and princess Ning Luo were silent.

Today's battle was truly a moment of shock.

The city almost fell.

Zhu Lin raised his glass and said, "I don't want to thank you for your kindness. The two of you saved the situation today."

The three of them had a drink.

This is a light fruit wine, not intoxicating.

Then, the three of them were silent.

According to the law, the city should be happy, but not happy.

One to one, they almost got beaten down.

"Jinjun's barbarian army is too strong." Zhu Lin sighed and said, "Fighting such an army is a complete nightmare. Everyone is like a wild beast, not afraid of death, or even to take the initiative to die. It was not the case when the The southern ou kingdom army rebelled. Those rebels were also barbarians."

Lord Ning Luo said, "The people of south ou have been domesticated and become almost like the people of Yue kingdom. This time, Jinjun brought the purest sand barbarian warriors. They have been hunting in the jungle since they were five or six years old. For them, living is an experience, but death is a home."

"It's crazy. There shouldn't be such a race in this world." Zhu Lin sighed.

Lord Ning Luo said, "Of the ten sand barbarians, at most three of them can live past thirty years of age. In this environment full of death, anyone can be turned into a beast. Previously, these beasts were scattered in the jungle, but now Jinjun has brought them out and gathered them together."

Nangong said proudly, "General Zhu Lin, how many casualties have you suffered in the past few days?"

"37, 000!" Zhu Lin said.

Nangong said proudly, "So many?"

He could not believe that there were such heavy casualties on the side of the city?

Zhu Lin said, "Yes, it's too cruel. The bows and arrows of the barbarian warriors are too fierce and tricky. The barbarian warriors have charged up the city wall twice, bringing astonishing casualties."

Nangong said proudly, "What about Jinjun's casualties?"

Zhu Lin said, "It should be around 40,000."

In other words, the ratio of casualties between the attackers and defenders was almost one to one.

It was unbelievable that they were beaten like this.

Zhu Lin was still very conservative. In fact, Jinjun's army had more than 40,000 casualties.

For the average army, more than half of the casualties had already been demoralized.

But the barbarian army was still strong.

"Send more troops!" General Zhu Lin said.

Ning Luo and Nangong Ao fell silent.

Reinforcements?

That would be equivalent to abandoning the rear and abandoning the Tiannan city defense line.

But nothing is more important than the capital of the southern ou kingdom.

So the three of them wrote a letter to Zhu Rong Governor general and asked the emperor to send more troops!

...

After Zhu Rong Governor general received that report, his whole body was almost shattered.

But...

Two hours later, he received another report.

He often breathed a sigh of relief.

Nangong ao and princess ningluo rushed to help, and The capital of the southern ou kingdom was finally held back.

By this time, his orders had been issued.

Thirty thousand troops rushed to the south.

A day later, he received a joint secret letter from princess Ning Luo, Nangong Ao and Zhu Lin.

Requesting reinforcements.

Zhu Rong Governor general gritted his teeth and sent another 40,000 troops south!

So far.

There were only 30,000 troops left on the entire Tiannan city defense line!

This meant that the second battlefield was almost empty.

However, the second battlefield was meant to serve the first battlefield.

According to this posture, if the first battlefield fell, then the second battlefield could not be preserved at all!

In a strict sense, continuing to increase the number of troops in the southern ou kingdom required the synonym of a monarch.

But it was too late to save the soldiers.

Fortunately, the Zhu shi family did everything they could to draw an army of 100,000 people out of political resources.

Otherwise, this battle would be really dangerous.

Jinjun's army was far more powerful than anyone could have imagined, and almost overturned the situation when the war started.

...

A few days later!

Seventy thousand troops from Tiannan province entered The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom.

Fifty thousand of them entered The capital of the southern ou kingdom, and twenty thousand entered Sand city and Fallen leaves city respectively.

At this point, the Yue kingdom garrison in The capital of the southern ou kingdom reached a staggering 130,000.

Throughout The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom, the Yue kingdom army reached 180,000!

At this time, Jinjun's shaman army was less than 60,000.

The forces of both sides reached an unprecedented ratio of three to one.

The war was once again deadlocked.

Next!

Jinjun's army had launched several small-scale sieges.

But there was a huge disparity in the strength between the two sides, and they all returned without any success. Each side had casualties!

November 15!

Jinjun's army suddenly left the battlefield and turned north!

This is to attack Sand city!

In this way, Sand city is in danger!

At this moment, however, Zhu Rong Governor general stepped forward and led 20,000 troops into Sand city, making Sand city's army more than 45,000.

Jinjun stormed Sand city.

The capital of the southern ou kingdom was almost conquered before, let alone Sand city?

But zhurong Governor general, a courtier, was much more powerful than he had imagined. From the very beginning, he had put all his money into the pool of 45,000 troops without any spare strength.

The battle lasted for four hours.

Zhu Rong Governor general personally led his men up the city wall to fight.

There were countless casualties on both sides.

Although the battle was short, it was even more tragic and dangerous.

The city was about to fall.

The barbarian army was too strong.

Zhu Rong Governor general felt like he was in hell all the time.

He even counted down in his heart.

Reinforcements should arrive quickly, or Sand city would fall.

At this moment, Nangong Ao finally led the cavalry north.

Nangong ao and zhu rong Governor general attacked from the inside out.

Finally, Jinjun, the fearless and invincible samurai army, was defeated.

More than 20,000 soldiers were killed and less than 40,000 were led to retreat.

The retreat was 60 miles and returned to Heishui village to lick his wounds.

So far!

The first stage of the The southern ou kingdom war ended.

Yue kingdom won by stages.

Jinjun had suffered a series of head injuries in The capital of the southern ou kingdom and Sand city.

From the perspective of the situation, Jinjun completely lost the opportunity to take the initiative.

...

Victory.

In the south ou manor!

Zhu Lin, Nangong Ao, princess Ning Luo, tears welled up in her eyes.

Now I can finally let go of my stomach and drink.

It wasn't easy.

Although the battle lasted only a month, it was too tragic.

It was too dangerous.

The capital of the southern ou kingdom almost fell.

Fortunately, a few generals were so quick to make a decision that even Zhu Rong Governor general, as a civilian, personally went to war.

Otherwise, Sand city would have fallen.

Look at the invincible posture of Jinjun's army. Once he took away a city, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Especially in the later battle.

Although it only lasted for more than three hours, the Yue kingdom army suffered nearly 30,000 casualties!

Finally, victory.

In a month, Jinjun's 100,000 troops lost more than 60,000 lives.

Yue kingdom had 250,000 troops and more than 80,000 casualties.

Today, the army of Yue kingdom in The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom exceeds 160,000, while Jinjun only has over 30,000.

There was already a huge disparity in power between the two sides.

"Although Jinjun's army is invincible, it is important to keep up the momentum in attacking the city. Once the momentum is gone, there will be nothing left."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"After all, the samurai of the sand barbarians are still not capable. They are only brave and have no strategy."

"This may be powerful, but the military is not good. The temperature is a little lower!"

"To the capital, to the whole of Yue kingdom!"

And at this moment!

General Zhu Lin said, "It's time to let his highness the crown prince go south."

Princess Ning Luo was silent for a moment, then nodded.

General Zhu Lin looked at Nangong Ao.

At this point, you need to make a statement.

Nangong Ao was very anxious.

On the one hand, he was loyal to the king.

But on the other hand, this battle was won. The crown prince was in the middle of the sun and he could not resist it.

Although the emperor was not the setting sun, he was already in his fifties.

The crown prince was like the rising sun.

Most importantly, the Nangong family had a fatal stake in the Zhu shi family.

General Zhu Lin said, "Lord privy, the situation in The southern ou kingdom has entered a completely new phase. I think we need the crown prince to come and sit down at this time so that we can boost our morale and morale. The old lady was exhausted from this battle and could not hold on to it any longer. She could not hold the post of guarding the town of The capital of the southern ou kingdom. Otherwise, Marquis zhenbei would have taken on the job as well?"

Zhu Lin's words were already very explicit.

Lord Nangong Ao, do you not want the crown prince to come to the south ou to preside over the war?

Are you worried that he will take credit?

How about giving you all the credit?

Suddenly, Nangong Ao had no choice but to stand up and say, "General zhu, what are you saying? You two are right. The more this critical moment, the more we can't slack off. We must once and for all eliminate the power of the reserved monarchy. At this time, we especially need the crown prince to preside over the army. I agree!"

General Zhu Lin laughed and said, "Marquis zhenbei is indeed the jade pillar of the country. How about the three of us join hands to play the emperor?"

How could Nangong Ao say no?

So, the three of them wrote a report together!

Reporting victory to the emperor.

In addition, he requested the emperor to send the crown prince to the south, to preside over the war, and to completely eliminate Jinjun.

...

Maybe it was because she was too nervous!

Recently, the emperor's Parkinson's syndrome had become somewhat obvious, and he could not help but tremble when he was empty-handed.

To cover it up, he had to grab something in his hand.

His heart was burning with anxiety.

The war in The southern ou kingdom had been going on for a month.

Especially in the first half a month.

The news was all bad.

Ning Yuanxian was also shocked three times a day.

He even had strong doubts about himself and about Yue kingdom.

Is Jinjun that good?

Just a hundred thousand people and you almost stole Capital city of southern ou?

Especially in that war report, the western wall of the southern ou kingdom nearly fell.

Ning Yuanxian was so cold.

He was very clear in his heart.

The capital of the southern ou kingdom was the biggest fortress on the battlefield. Once it fell, it would mean the defeat of the whole war.

Fortunately, Zhu Lin and Nangong stood up.

What followed was a long wait!

At this time, not only the entire capital, but the entire palace banned all entertainment.

Empress dowager only ate two porridge a day and prayed for the war ahead in front of the buddhist hall all day long.

When any eunuch or palace maid walks, she almost does not dare to make a sound, lest there is a little disturbance to the noble people, causing the danger of life.

The entire palace, the entire country, was in a state of extreme repression.

The rumors in the dark were getting worse and worse, and they couldn't be stopped.

Everyone knew.

If The southern ou kingdom were to lose this battle.

Then King chu's army of 280,000 would pounce on Tianxi province like crazy.

At that time, it would be a disaster for the whole of Yue kingdom.

Although Ning Yuanxian missed Shen Lang very much, he never missed his return.

Especially when he saw that Ning Zheng was so outstanding, his yearning became more and more urgent.

Although he knew that once The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom won, it would mean that Shen Lang's return was completely cut off.

But... After all, he was the king of Yue kingdom.

Of course, he was desperate to win.

Yue kingdom's survival was more important than Shen Lang's return.

Shen Lang, that little bastard, was having a good time in xuanwu city.

God bless, god bless.

We must let Yue kingdom through this disaster and let the battle of the southern ou win!

Even Bian imperial concubine, she loved Ning Zheng.

She knew very well that if the battle of The southern ou kingdom was won, the position of the crown prince would be stable, and the hope of a peaceful regime to seize the throne would be extremely slim.

But from the perspective of her husband, Ning Yuanxian, she still yearned for victory.

"God bless, god bless!"

"The southern ou kingdom wins, The southern ou kingdom wins..."

Empress dowager's prayer was clearly only heard in the corner of the buddhist hall, but it seemed to reverberate throughout the entire palace.

And at this moment!

A group of elite warriors galloped crazily north!

"Eight hundred miles faster, eight hundred miles faster!"

"The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom, big win, big win!"

The capital, xuanwu city gate, guarded thousands of households, and it was lan er.

Kutouhuan was promoted and became the head of the City guards. All the ten brothers of the lan family were promoted from hundreds to thousands.

When he heard the news, lan er's heart trembled, and he felt sad and happy for a while. His fate was already tied up with Ning Zheng. If the southern ou country won the war, then it would be impossible for his highness ning zheng to take over the throne.

"800 Li, hurry up, The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom wins!"

The cavalry that reported the news came from far to near.

Lan er immediately shouted, "Open the city gate, open the city gate!"

Xuanwu city slowly opened.

The messenger knight rushed into the capital and roared.

"Good news, good news, The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom, I won Yue kingdom!"

"Good news, good news!"

It was reasonable not to shout openly.

This messenger team should enter the palace as soon as possible, report this to the emperor Ning Yuanxian first, and then announce it to the world.

However, out of some special thought.

The messenger team shouted crazily along the way.

Wherever they went, they heard the news of The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom's victory.

Immediately!

The whole country was on fire!

The capital that had been silent for months, the capital that had been repressed for months.

Into a sea of joy!

Countless people rushed out of their homes.

Aimlessly, but desperately.

"Ten thousand victories in Yue kingdom, ten thousand victories in Yue kingdom!"

"Long live your majesty, long live!"

The City guards should have kept order and sent these people home.

After all, under wartime rules, any gathering of more than 30 people would be illegal without Governor's mansion's consent.

But looking at the revelry crowd, the City guards did nothing!

...

"Your majesty, great joy, great joy!"

The doors of the palace opened one after another.

The messenger knight dashed in, unimpeded, and came straight to the main hall!

"Your majesty, The southern ou kingdom is in chaos and won a great victory! Jinjun's army of 100,000, with less than 40,000 left, retreated in a hurry."

At this time, the atmosphere was oppressive at the great court meeting.

The warrior rushed in and shouted, shocking everyone.

The ministers were stunned and then ecstatic!

Is the news of this victory finally here?

The crown prince's heart was almost boiling.

This day has finally come!

Prime minister Zhu Hongzhu's face turned red and his breathing quickened.

It's not easy!

The Zhu shi family paid a huge price for this difficult victory.

It cost countless money and overdrawn countless political resources.

But it was all worth it!

Immediately, Crown Prince Ning Yi knelt down and said loudly, "Congratulations, father! Congratulations, father!"

Zhu Hongzhu knelt down, "Congratulations, your majesty!"

Then, all the courtiers knelt down neatly, "Congratulations, your majesty!"

These people called out congratulations to his majesty, but in their hearts they almost called out congratulations to the crown prince, congratulations to the crown prince.

The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom wins!

That almost meant that the crown prince's position was as stable as a mountain.

King Ning Yuanxian listened.

First there was a great joy, then a trance!

Did you win?

So you won?

Win, win, win!

Then, he looked at the crown prince.

The other party's eyes shot out an incomparably proud light, even though it flew away.

But ning yuanxian still saw it.

This victory was indeed a victory for the few, but the biggest winner was the crown prince.

In the past few months, he had raised Ning Qi up and suppressed the crown prince.

Is the crown prince finally going to raise his eyebrows?

Ning Yuanxian couldn't help but look at Ning Zheng again.

Originally ning zheng was short and fat, but now he was so thin that he was out of shape.

He was the one who really put his heart and soul into it.

He was the one who endured the humiliation and shouldered the burden. He was devoted to sharing the burden for his country and for his ruler. He never cried out for pain or fatigue.

What a pity, my good son!

But it was better to win than to lose.

Ning Yuanxian, the emperor, tidied up his mood and burst out laughing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please rise!"

"Tell the empress dowager the good news immediately and tell the world that all the people are happy together!" '

"Zhu Lin, Ning Luo, Nangong Ao, Zhu Rong!"

The ministers bowed down again.

"Congratulations, your majesty!"

Then, the leader of the warrior reported, "Your majesty, princess Ning Luo, general Zhu Lin and general Nangong Ao, three joint memorials!"

Emperor Ning Yuanxian narrowed his eyes.

Sure enough, it's here!

It really didn't stop.

However, ning yuanxian was still overjoyed, "Send it up, express it up!"

The warrior handed the transcript to the great eunuch Li Sun first, then checked by li falcon before handing it to the emperor.

Ning Yuanxian opened it.

In fact, he already knew what was in it.

Let the crown prince go to The battlefield of the southern ou kingdom to sit down and reap the greatest fruits of victory.

Ning yuanxian said with a smile, "Zhu Lin, Ning Luo and Nangong Ao are playing together. The The southern ou kingdom war situation has entered a new stage and changed from defending to attacking. They want to once and for all, completely destroy the reserved monarchy, and forever protect the safety of the southern ou country. So what we have to do next is to encircle, annihilate, and bring the map!"

Several eunuchs hung up a large map.

Ning yuanxian said, "Jinjun led 30,000 remnant sand barbarians to retreat to Heishui village. This is a village abandoned for twenty years, and it is also the most western part of The southern ou kingdom. They want to fight a big annihilation war, a big encirclement war, completely destroy Jinjun, completely defeat this so-called Great southern country! What do you think of the three men who want the crown prince to take charge of the entire war and the operation of supplies in The southern ou kingdom? Ning Yi, are you willing to go?"

Ning yi, the crown prince, said, "Your son and his ministers were originally sharing the worries of their father. They would go through fire and water, and would not hesitate to do so!"

...

Because of the closer distance, Shen Lang even received the The southern ou kingdom report earlier than the emperor!

Then, he was amazed!

Jinjun is awesome.

It was true that he almost conquered The capital of the southern ou kingdom for the first time.

He did try his best to win The capital of the southern ou kingdom.

But when he realized that he couldn't fight back, he immediately gave up the idea and carried out his original strategy.

Lead the snake out of the hole.

Although this plan was extremely simple.

But Jinjun paid such a huge price for it.

The trick went to the extreme!

No, it's not even a play.

Instead, they used their bodies as bait to stage the drama of life and death.

Shen Lang stood in front of the map and sneered.

"If Crown Prince Ning Yi goes to The southern ou kingdom, he may be doomed!"

"We should be ready too. Maybe it won't be long before we perform!"

...
