Chapter 188

"The four commanders of Daqian's army in southern Xinjiang are more than enough to guard one side, but they are not enough to command the army. I have been informed that Yu Yuanpu, the king of Zhongyang in Daqian, and his army are looking after each other. Huairen has come to the south. It was Yu Yuanpu who commanded the battle of Nanli before, and Gu Huairen is in zhennanguan at this time." Yan Wensheng said again.

"My Lord, as far as I know, although Yu Yuanpu, the great Qian, started from the bottom of the army, it was more necessary for the emperor Qian to balance the imperial situation that he was able to be in charge of the outer court. He led the army not by his talent, but by his Royal identity, and he was in the south of the battlefield. We don't have to worry too much."

Qiu Xu thought about it and said, "it's Gu Huairen who is in trouble. More than 20 years ago, Da Qian had three heroes of poor families who rose up in the world, but then there was xungui Wuxiu. Gu Huairen was the leader of Wuxiu. He followed Lu Chun for many years. He participated in the northern Xinjiang war of Da Qian and later the northern expedition to Caoyuan. He was a Veteran General in the army. Although he was not as good as Lu Chun, his elder brother once said, Gu Huairen, Bai Yi and eldest brother are different from each other. We can see that they are capable of unifying the army. "

"Uncle." Qiu Qiao shook his head, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Although Gu Huairen is a rare talent for generals, don't forget that in the capital of Daqian, there are Lu Chun and Lu Shao's father and son. This is the most difficult thing. If Lu Chun comes to southern Xinjiang, no one in Tianxing can stop him."

Qiu lie, his father, and Qiu Ao, his elder brother, were killed by Lu que. Qiu qiaohen gritted his teeth. However, he had to admit that Lu Que and his father, who suppressed an era, were indeed the top marshals of the era. If the father and son came to the south, even if the four princes and the Duke of Wucheng worked together, they would not be their rivals. They would be invincible, And still hundreds of thousands of troops, it is too terrible.

Qiu Xu was silent when he heard that he and Lu Chun were of the same age. How could he not know how powerful Lu Chun was? When the Qingyang empire was destroyed, the two countries in southern Xinjiang were in constant panic, for fear that the Qianhuang would send Lu Chun to the south. He was one of the members of the mission at that time. He had seen with his own eyes the frightening situation of Lu Chun and his Tianhuo army.

However, it has been 15 years since Lu Chun disappeared and returned to Daqian, and he has not personally led the expedition, which makes him subconsciously ignore that Daqian still has a despairing famous commander. Qiu Xu shivered at the thought that if Lu Chunnan came to lead the war between the two countries, because if that was the case, even the Duke of Wucheng would not be Lu Chun's opponent, and the day of the death of Tianxing kingdom for hundreds of years was just around the corner.

"Daqian is rich in products, vast in territory and outstanding in people. Bai Yi and Gu Huairen have been able to compete with their father-in-law. Among Daqian's capital, there is Lu Chun, who stands at the top of the famous commander. In the new generation, there is Lu que, who has defeated his father-in-law. Unfortunately, the soldiers of Tianxing kingdom are weak. There may not be one such talent for thousands of years. Otherwise, there will be such a talented person in the country, How can you be afraid of him doing something Yan Wensheng had a bitter smile on his face.

Daqian has 108 counties, including more than 30 counties in the upper county and more than 20 counties in the middle county. It has been in the lower County for more than 10 years. On top of it are Qianyuan, the capital of the emperor, and eight auxiliary capitals. It can be said that Tianxing and Nanli, together, are not necessarily as populous as Daqian and Jiujing. Since the founding of the state by the female emperor, great heroes have emerged in large numbers, managing internal affairs and expanding external territory. Tianxing and Nanli founded their country much earlier than Daqian, but they could only form an alliance to protect themselves under the power of Daqian. Every day they were terrified, for fear that they would find an excuse for Daqian and send troops to attack.

"Husband, don't worry. Lu Chun won't lead any more." Qiu Qiao looked at the most dazzling general star in the sky for a while, and shook his head. "The stars of Lu Chun and his wife are bright and dim sometimes, which means that they have entered a state of great calamity, and they are likely to have reached the peak of great calamity. In the face of the calamity of Daoxin, which caused countless heroes to fall, they will not join in the red world expedition again, involving cause and effect."

"Are you sure, Joel?" Yan Wensheng was surprised and then overjoyed. Although Gu Huairen is a famous commander of the same rank as his father-in-law Qiu lie, he is still inferior to Lu Chun. As long as Lu Chun doesn't go south, Tianxing can't say that he will survive the disaster, but at least there is a trace of vitality. After all, Gu Huairen is not Lu Chun who has no last resort.

"I'm sure that Lu Chun and his wife's astrology has shifted to the outside of the imperial palace. I think they have the heart to leave Daqian and go to seclusion and practice, but ~" said Qiu Qiao, his face was not good-looking.

"Just what?" Qiu Xu asked.

"Just a few stars that were originally outside the Imperial Palace in the starry sky have entered the Imperial Palace at this time, including the star of Fu Bi, the general star, and two different stars, one bright and one dark, poof ~" said Qiu Qiao, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and his breath decayed rapidly.

Yan Wensheng and Qiu Xu were both shocked and got up.

"How are you, Joel?" Yan Wensheng looks at Qiu Qiao with concern. He naturally knows that this is his wife's human effort to measure the sky's secrets, which leads to the backfire of the sky's secrets.

"Husband, I'm fine. Just take a break." Qiu Qiao took out the silk handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth, pointed to the sky and continued, "my husband, you see, there is a strange star in the starry sky, whose light is better every day. If my concubine is right, it is Lu Que's general star that destroyed the whole army of the mad lion army, and after this star, there is another strange star hidden, which should be Lu Que's fiancee Gu Qingcheng, Two different stars came to the imperial palace to assist crape myrtle. The prosperity of Da qian can't be changed. If my husband really makes up his mind, we Tianxing can't compete with Da Qian for a short time in this battle, and we want to save our country. "

At this point, Qiu Qiao could not help spitting out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person slowly slipped down from the chair.

"Joel, Joel." Yan Wensheng held his wife in his arms and yelled to the guard who was not far away from the pavilion, "pass on the doctor quickly and invite all the famous doctors in Linhai county. Go quickly."

"Don't worry, sir. Joel is just exhausted and fainted." One hand is clasping the Qiu Xu of Qiu Qiao pulse door to open mouth to say. He is not as good as his elder brother Qiu lie in leading the army and assisting the government, but his talent in martial arts is relatively higher. He is also an expert in Tianxing kingdom. Naturally, he can judge from his pulse that his niece is not in great trouble. As long as he doesn't use Tianji's skills in the near future, he can recover after a period of peace of mind.

"It's really dangerous. I can't let qiao'er do it any more. I don't want the throne, but qiao'er can't do anything." Looking at his wife's slightly morbid white face, Yan Wensheng said with some fear.

"Ai ~" Qiu Xu felt a little relieved in his eyes, but then he was worried. If Lu Que and Gu Qingcheng were the bright and dark stars, as his niece Qiu Qiao said, the so-called unpredictable stars, Daqian would be even more terrible than Lu Chun, but they are still young now, although they had military achievements in southern Xinjiang before, But it will take some time to take power.

"Uncle, you are Qiao er's uncle. You are my most trusted person. You are in charge of contacting with Uncle Wang. Now Daqian is in great power. Nanli has just lost the county of Hebei Province. The thunder Eagle army has surrendered. We Tianxing can't go on any more. Otherwise, the country will be in Daqian's hands. You and I are both Tianxing criminals. How can we face to see our father-in-law and elder brother after death?" Yan Wensheng felt that his wife's breath was stable. He was a little relieved and said.

Qiu Xu felt a trace of gratitude in his heart. He knew that Yan Wensheng would leave the matter to him. No matter what happened afterwards, the Duke of Wucheng would read his love for the Qiu family. The Qiu family was saved. Then he said, "my Lord, even if we make peace with the Duke of Wucheng and admit the throne, the other three princes would not think so. With these three people in Tianxing, chaos would go on."

"Go to contact Uncle Wang first, and wait until Uncle Wang has a reply." Yan Wensheng's eyes flashed a cold light, he can not want the throne for the overall situation, but Tianxing must not go on in disorder, or the Yan Family of Tianxing will really be finished.

"You don't want to ~" Qiu Xu looked at Yan Wensheng's eyes, surprised.

"As long as Uncle Wang agrees, it's up to me to help him pacify the star rebellion. I'm going to make an appointment with three elder brothers to join the alliance, and then we'll get together and kill them. In this way, the Tianxing rebellion will be solved by ourselves. If Uncle Wang is worried about the stability of the throne, I can also make my own decisions on the spot. I just hope he can keep Huangyanjiang and let my Tianxing Yan Family Pass on. "

"You can't Qiu Xu is very anxious when he hears the words.

"Uncle ~" Yan Wensheng stopped Qiu Xu and said, "I know that the name of killing my brother will stay in the history books. In my life, and even in future generations, I will set up a poison plan to kill my brother. I am an ambitious person and a man of power. But this is nothing compared with the Royal inheritance. As long as Tianxing can get through this difficulty, Yan is still the master of Tianxing. All this is worth it."

"Jun Shang ~" Qiu Xu kneels down with tears on his face. Like his elder brother Qiu lie, he always thinks that the only one who can bring Tianxing to power is Yan Wensheng, the fourth prince. If he can have 20 years, he believes that Tianxing will be able to annex Nanli under the leadership of the four princes, and become the overlord of Southern Xinjiang, competing with Daqian. It's a pity that the general situation won't allow and Tianshi won't protect him, Yan Tuohai, the Duke of Wucheng, is a man of the army. With his strength, he loses his benevolence and softness. Even if he can block the big qianbing front this time, there is no chance for the rise of Tianxing. He can only survive in the future.

"Time is not with me. It's the only way. Let's do it." Looking at his fainting wife in his arms, a trace of firmness flashed in Yan Wensheng's eyes. Between Tianxing and himself, he chose Tianxing, which is his responsibility as a son of Tianxing royal family and what he must do.

"Nuo ~" Qiu Xu got up, saluted Yan Wensheng deeply, and staggered to the outside of the house.

Just as Qiu Xu left, in the southeast of the sky, a star of Wang Si, which had become dim, suddenly bloomed and moved towards the center of Wang que.

"I'm worthy of being a good nephew of my father. I made such a decision." Yan Tuohai, the Duke of Wucheng, also looked at the starry sky and said.

"Zhan Shuai, the first king passed on the throne. Zhan Shuai should call himself an orphan." Standing beside Yan Tuohai, the pro guard general said.

"Lonely?" Yan Tuohai laughs and shakes his head. "I have been stationed outside xiyuanze for most of my life. I have never been greedy for the throne, and if I had not withdrawn my troops and returned home, brother lie would not have been defeated."

"But Zhan Shuai has the imperial edict handed down by the former king in his hand. He is the leader of heaven and stars who is righteous and obedient."

"We Tianxing and Nanli in the West have reached the most critical juncture. Daqian even moved the Fengxiang army. It can be seen that the heart of destroying the country is very strong. I know my qualifications. If I am the general, I am more than enough. If I am the king, I am beyond my power."

"Why should the king belittle himself? The four princes only know how to fight with each other. In our eyes, only the king can reform the world." Said a man dressed as a scribe.

"Wen Ju, I've told you many times, don't call me king. I didn't say what I said just now. It was my father who passed the throne to his eldest brother and called me into the palace." Yan Tuohai flashed a trace of memory in his eyes, and the scene seemed to reappear in front of him.

Although he didn't agree with his father's words at that time, after all these years, when he saw brother Wang's painstaking efforts for state affairs and the dispute between his four nephews over the title of the royal family, he knew that he was not the material for the king. He could fight for the country in the army, but he could not enter the court. He had no imperial mind and could not balance the forces in the court, Only with this steel knife and blood can't make the ministers bow down and be convinced.

It's a pity that brother Wang is in his prime, and his state affairs are in decay. At this point, he is not a man who loves to fight for the throne. The former kings fought bloody battles, and both sides could not trust each other, so that the two legions were both defeated. Now he wants to see what the nephews who fled back to the fiefdom would do.

After hearing Yan Tuohai's words, the civil servants and military generals who had been following him all the time did not speak. This is Yan Tuohai's father, King tianxingzhao's comment on him. As ministers, who dares to say anything.

After a long time, Wen Ju, the chief counselor of Wucheng, asked, "Zhan Shuai, you just said that Da Qian had sent Fengxiang troops to the south. Where are Fengxiang troops now? Will they enter zhennanguan or join the battle of Nanli?"

"Astrology can only see that Feng Xiang is coming to the south, but no matter how specific he is, he can't know. However, the commander-in-chief has ordered the spy to investigate the matter. I think it will pay off soon." Yan Tuohai's eyes flashed a trace of dignity.

Fengxiang's army came to the south. Whether it was garrisoning Tianxing in zhennanguan or turning to the southwest to join Huxiao and Fengfeng's army, it was not good news for Tianxing. Tianxing and the South were just a corner away from each other, and their national strength was almost the same. In terms of military strength, there were nearly 600000 troops in each of the three legions. Now, after the defeat of xiaoqingshan and the civil war in Wangdu, Tianxing has only 250000 available troops, In the south, the thunder Eagle army surrendered, with less than 400000 domestic troops.

The combined military strength of the two countries can only make up less than 700000 troops, while there are 150000 in each of Daqian's gale army, Huxiao army and Yulin army, together with 300000 people's benlei army and 150000 Fengxiang army going south, that is 900000 troops, nearly one million troops. Moreover, because of the national strength, Daqian's country can call up another million troops at any time, Daqian, the veterans who have experienced war and retired because of their age, can come up with this figure, but Tianxing and Nanli can't.

The southward movement of the Fengxiang army shows that Emperor Yu Yuanxu has made up his mind to annex the two countries in southern Xinjiang. This is a bloody battle related to the fate of his family and country. Thinking of this, Yan Tuohai feels like a huge stone. The succession of brother Wang and his family, the heavy responsibilities of his family and country, and the trust of the state are all on him. Moreover, the four nephews in southern Xinjiang have become independent, so he can't put all his energy on the front line of Huangyanjiang river, At this time, he hoped that brother Wang was still alive, so he only needed to consider the Huangyanjiang defense, but he didn't have to worry about so many things.

"Zhan Shuai, it's better for us to send envoys to Qianyuan to seek peace. As long as we delay this time, we can still recruit 100000 people to join the army." Wenju suggests.

"It's no use." Yan Tuohai shook his head. "What Emperor Yu Yuanxu wants is Tianxing, the 36 counties and thousands of people in Nanli."

Yan Tuohai's eyes flashed a trace of bitterness. If the mad lion Legion and Qiu lie are still there, he doesn't have to worry about it. But the mad lion Legion has been destroyed, and God has fought a bloody battle. Now there are not many families in Tianxing kingdom. It's the pain of losing their son and father. If the army is drafted at this time, it may not relieve the pressure of Tianxing, and it may also cause civil unrest.

"Wang Si Lin Zhong Gong, my good nephew, as long as you can solve the Tianxing rebellion, Uncle Wang is willing to take you as the king and guard the territory for you. The survival of our Tianxing Yan family depends on you." Yan Tuohai looked at the star of Wang Si who was gradually moving towards Wang Que and said in his heart.

Then he looked to the northern sky. The two stars of Fu Bi and the four generals in the two regions were extremely bright. To the north, beside the star of Da Qian emperor, a star of broken army commander was shining abnormally, which could compete with the star of emperor.

"Lu Chun, I used to hope to fight with you in the battlefield, but now I'm proud to be in charge of the imperial capital for you. It seems that I'm not your opponent, but I still want to call you Gu Huairen's weight. Let's see how much difference you and I have before."

At this time, a civil servant handed a stack of paper to Wen Ju, whispered in his ear for a while, and left in a hurry. Seeing Yan Tuohai's eyes, Wen Ju said, "Zhan Shuai, since the end of the war in the capital, many aristocratic families in the capital have secretly contacted the son of the former king. What should we do?"

"Wenju, do you know that I have the imperial edict of brother Wang in my hand, and I occupy the capital of the king. Why don't I become king?" Yan Tuohai said, "I'm waiting for the best result for Tianxing. You don't have to worry about those people. If they want to contact, don't embarrass them. There will be a result soon."

"I know." Wen Ju looks at Yan Tuohai in surprise. Although he doesn't understand, he doesn't ask any more. He's just a schemer. The master's mind is not what he can guess. However, looking at the only remaining Zhan Shuai of Tianxing in front of him, he knew that Yan Tuohai had no intention of the throne, so he put out the idea of dragon climbing.
