1349 Chapter 1349-fence-sitter
It was already the middle of April, and the Civil War in the goddess Kingdom had been going on for almost half a month.
Gu shouxin had originally told Cai Xiaolian that he would be back in three days at most, but Queen Dugu’s side had been repeatedly injured. Thinking that her mother and his mother were sisters born from the same mother, Gu shouxin could not leave.
Although his mother seemed to have a cold personality, he knew that the old lady still valued family ties, whether it was Gu Qingyuan or Queen Dugu.
If she didn’t care, she wouldn’t have asked him to send someone to investigate Gu Qingyuan, and she wouldn’t have taken Queen Dugu’s little baby home to raise.
!!
It was rare for Gu shouxin to have the opportunity to do something for his mother, and he still cherished it very much.
Moreover, if he didn’t deal with Yan Mo, he reckoned that kun city wouldn’t be able to live in peace.
When he had first met Yan Mo in Qingzhou, he had felt that this man was extraordinary. Although he was from an opposing force, he had to admit that Yan Mo was capable of escaping one after another and pretending to be in great Zhou for more than 20 years. Ordinary people could not do that.
“Lord Gu, general Peng, general Yin, look over here. According to my men, that bastard Yan Mo has already gathered all the castellans here and here. His Army is about 150000. And I only have 100000 left. My idea is to ask the great Zhou to help me guard the rear while I personally lead this 100000-strong Army to attack!” In the palace of the goddess, Queen Dugu invited Gu shouxin and the others to discuss a meeting. Xue Qianyu did not come, but stood guard at the back with his men.
as long as they don’t have any reinforcements, I’m confident in killing them! Queen Dugu said in a deep voice.
“Your Highness, if you kill them like this, the goddess Kingdom will no longer be what it used to be. It will take at least ten years to recover. Aren’t you afraid of being annexed by other places?” General Peng asked.
“I’m not afraid.” Queen Dugu shook her head and laughed. general Peng, didn’t I agree to submit to the great Zhou? As long as the great Zhou Dynasty returns the dugu family’s independent ruling rights and the governance of the goddess Kingdom remains unchanged, I’ll agree to anything you say!”
Eldest Madam Peng looked at Queen Dugu. She had no choice but to agree.
“Old general Peng said that he has already sent people to the Jinnan country. I don’t think the Jinnan country will lend them troops. Third general Peng had gone to the sand divine Kingdom, and it was likely that the sand divine Kingdom would not lend them troops. The only thing we need to be wary of now is the Lang GE Kingdom.” Gu shouxin pointed at a place on the map.
He had been in kun city for more than a year, and he was more curious about the Lang GE Kingdom. He always felt that the Lang GE Kingdom was more mysterious than the other countries.
Among these surrounding small countries, the lange Kingdom was the most similar to the great Zhou. It was said that it was a country established by the general of the previous dynasty and had an impressive military strength.
Queen Dugu also understood this, but she had no choice but to confront Yan Mo and the others.
After a moment of silence, Gu shouxin asked, ” “Your Highness, I wonder if any of the city Lords who have sided with Yan Mo are fence-sitters?”
Queen Dugu was stunned for a moment before she nodded. “Of course there is. Except for a few who are more ambitious and want the whole world to be like the goddess Kingdom, the others are just fence sitters. They only agreed because my stupid daughter promised them a lot of benefits.”
“May I ask if your Highness is referring to the gold and silver mines?” first Madam Peng interrupted.
Queen Dugu turned to Lady Peng. general Yin is right. It’s a gold mine and a silver mine. Those people love money. They’re guarding a mountain of gold and silver, but they have to give it to me. They’re just not happy about it.
