Chapter 420 Nan Wang Desperate

Chapter 419: The King of the South is desperate

In the first month of the 23rd year of Qianyuan, Deng Jun Wudang Weiquan took Qianwei County of Nanguo, and wiped out nearly half of the soldiers and horses of Nanguo at the same time, which established an absolute advantage for the next destruction of Nanguo. The Southern King, who is located in Dianchi, the capital of the Southern Kingdom, is in a state of desperation at the moment, because when he received the news that the entire county of Qianwei County fell and was occupied by Deng Jun, the barbarians headed by the Wuzhi tribe, who were hiding in the mountains of Xielong, started to make trouble again.

Dianchi Palace, Houde Palace, this is the place where the daily affairs of the Southern Kingdom are discussed. Today, the Southern King sits on the throne, and below him are the Prime Minister An Ying, the General Zhu Shang, the General Wei Gu Tong, the imperial historian Wu Jiu and other important officials of the Southern Kingdom.

"Masters, now our Danan has fallen into a situation of internal and external troubles. Outside, Deng Jun has forcibly occupied Qianwei County, staring at the hinterland of our Danan, and there are barbarians rioting inside. What's more serious is that after the battle of Zhu Ti, our Danan Half of the elites are gone, facing such a situation, I don’t know how you can teach the widows?” On the throne, Nan Wang said to the crowd with a dejected expression.

The current Southern King is called Zhao Jue, and he is considered a promising king in the history of the Southern Kingdom. He has been in power for 16 years and has repeatedly repelled the invasions of the Shu Kingdom and the Yue Kingdom, and recruited some barbarians headed by the Zhu tribe. , the attack on the barbarians headed by the Wuzhi tribe was also quite effective. Therefore, the King of the South is very confident that without any external obstruction, within ten years, the barbarians that have troubled the southern kingdom for a hundred years can be solved and the territory will be unified. , to complete the unfinished business of his ancestors, but Deng Jun's sudden arrival caught him by surprise, so he couldn't die. At this time, the barbarians also came out to join in the fun.

After hearing Nan Wang's words, all the people present were also silent. The current situation is too embarrassing. What kind of giant Deng Guo is, maybe ordinary people in the southern country can't understand due to the geographical barrier, but as the upper nobles of the southern country They have also heard a little about the power and terror of the Deng country. In the past twenty years, it has jumped from a small country on the verge of subjugation, destroyed countless countries one after another, and finally became the most powerful country in the world today. How can it be a small country? The small southern country can compete.

However, although the name of Deng Guo is a bit scary, after all, he has never really experienced it. It is impossible for the monarchs and ministers of the Southern Kingdom to surrender without a fight. This incident has happened frequently in our court history, and it is nothing unusual, and now with the help of Zhu's tribe headed by a general, Wu's tribe can't make any troubles. On the other hand, Deng Guo has repeatedly overcome the situation over the years. Enemies, attacking cities and conquering territories, destroying countless countries, are the existences that should be guarded against, so I think that the general can lead the Zhu tribe to contain the Wu tribe, and then we will gather elite troops to resist Deng's army, even if we can't repel Deng. The army must also contain the momentum of Deng Jun. Deng Jun has come from afar, and he will not be able to hold on for long. As long as our army can dampen its spirit, Deng Jun will definitely retreat in the face of difficulties!"

Nan Wang nodded again and again. What An Ying meant was that Deng Jun came from afar, and it would definitely be a protracted war. As long as the Southern Army can contain Deng Jun's offensive, Deng Jun will naturally withdraw after a long time. Needless to say, for so many years since the founding of the Southern Kingdom, the barbarians will move every two or three years. This is already a habit for the Southern Kingdom, and there is nothing to be surprised about. Well, with the help of Zhu's tribe, not to mention defeating, at least blocking is not a problem.

"What do you think about what the prime minister said?" Nan Wang asked the crowd for their opinions on what the prime minister said, and everyone thought about it for a while, then said in unison: "The prime minister's words are old-fashioned plotters, and the ministers have no objection! "

"Okay, then it's settled, General Zhu Shang listens to the order!" Since there was no objection, Nan Wang gave the order directly, and the first order was for General Zhu Shang.

"The minister is here!" Zhu Shang stepped forward and responded!
"The widow ordered you to lead the Zhu clan to the evil dragon to fight against the Wu clan. If there is a chance of victory, it is up to the general to decide. If there is no chance, you should confront the enemy!" Nan Wang said, the task he gave Zhu Shang is, If he is sure of winning, Zhu Shang will have the full power to decide. If he is really not sure, he will also block the people from the Wuzhi tribe.

"Here! I obey!" Zhu Shang replied.

"General Wei, Gu Tong, listen to the order!" After giving Zhu Shang the order to contain the barbarian army headed by the Wuzhi tribe, the Southern King gave his most trusted general, Gu Tong, an order. Before Zhu Shang returned to the Southern Kingdom, the Southern Kingdom's No. 1 General, the great general of the Southern Kingdom belonged to Gu Tong, and Gu Tong also grew up with Nan Wang, and Nan Wang also had great trust in him, and Gu Tong did not disappoint Nan Wang. The Shu army has repeatedly made military exploits. At the beginning, for the future of the southern country, Gu Tong took the initiative to give up the position of general when he recruited the Zhu tribe. But even so, in the hearts of the southerners, Gu Tong is the strongest.

"The minister is here!" Gu Tong came out and answered with hands clasped!
"The widow ordered you to lead [-] elite troops to deploy defenses in the area of ​​Tanlu Mountain. You must stop Deng's army from going south. If there is a chance of victory, it will be up to General Wei to decide!" Nanwang asked Gu Tong to bring [-] troops. The last elite of the Southern Kingdom went to the north to deploy defenses in the Tanlu Mountain area at the junction of Qianwei County, and the requirements they gave were similar to those of Zhu Shang, that is, to fight if they can, and to defend if they can’t. It also means that the entire Southern Kingdom, including the capital Dianchi Lake, has no soldiers to defend. The King of the South is taking out his last family fortune and putting all his eggs in one basket.

"Here! I obey your orders!" If you say it is guarding, it can be said that it is Gu Tong's old business. Over the years, regardless of the fact that Gu Tong retreated from the Vietnamese army and defeated the Shu army, most of them were strictly guarding against death. The vigor of the enemy army is just to force the enemy army to retreat, and very few of them can really defeat the enemy army head-on. This order of Nan Wang is exactly in the hands of Gu Tong.

After giving the order, Nan Wang stood up slowly and said: "Zhu Qing, my Da Nan has reached the critical point of life and death. This time, the catastrophe has been overcome. In the future, my Da Nan will have a bright future, but once I fail to pass , the only thing waiting for us is the ruin of the country, whether it is for Da Nan, or for the widow, or for yourself, I hope that you can do your best to fight this battle for Da Nan. Promise to the ministers that if this battle is won, I will reward you generously, and whoever makes the first contribution to defeating the barbarians or the Deng army will be crowned king by all lands!" Now the Southern Kingdom has been pushed to the edge of a cliff, and in order to win, the Southern King will not hesitate to promise It is the first time since Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, sealed off the princes in Xianyang City, and it will probably be the last time, so it is extremely important.

After hearing Nan Wang's promise, Zhu Shang and Gu Tong, the two most promising generals in the army, also beamed with joy, and said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty, please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will return to court after victory!"

In the 23rd year of Qianyuan, on the 26th of the first lunar month, in order to deal with the invasion of Deng Jun and the rebellion of the barbarians at the same time, the King of the South resolutely sent all the remaining soldiers and horses in the country. Among them, the barbarian army headed by the Zhu clan went to Xielong to deal with Wuzhi The barbarians headed by the tribe, and the last elite of the Southern Kingdom, led by General Wei Gu Tong, went north to Tanlu Mountain to face Deng Jun.

In the 23rd year of Qianyuan, on the second day of February, the southern army arrived at Tanlu Mountain to deploy defenses. At this time, the Deng army had not yet gone south, and Gu Tong was able to calmly deploy the defense. As everyone knew, this was Deng's strategy. The last elite gathered together, annihilated them in one fell swoop, and then went straight to Dianchi City.

In the 23rd year of Qianyuan, on the sixth day of February, the battle of Tanlushan had not started yet, and the [-] barbarian army led by Zhu Shang had already arrived in the Xielong area, confronting the barbarian army headed by the Wuzhi tribe, and the two sides fought imminently.

Outside Xielong City, in front of the formation of the two armies, Wu Gan stood in front of the formation and looked at Zhu Shang from a distance. Zhu Shang looked at the aging Wu Gan not far away, and said with a sneer: "Wu Gan, you old man!" Immortal, why don't you spend the rest of your life in your Wuzhi tribe, why do you run out? Are you really afraid that you won't be safe at the end of the day?"

Hearing Zhu Shang's words, Wu Gan sneered and said: "Zhu Shang, you barbarian traitor, for your own selfish desire, you actually slaughtered your own people, I, Wu Gan, will never let you go, today, I will die tragically for you Revenge for the people in his hands!"

After all, Wu Gan planned to attack with his troops, but at this time, he was stopped by Su Yun, a military advisor sent by Deng Jun to assist Wu Gan. Wu Gan didn't know why, so he asked, "What does Mr. Su mean by this?"

Su Yun shook his head and said: "Chief, now is not the time to attack, please retreat first, I have a better idea!"

Hearing Su Yun's words, Wu Gan finally ordered to retreat first, but Zhu Shang was very puzzled by this scene, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, Wu Gan is old, and it's normal to be a little cowardly. Let the old people see that the Wuzhi tribe retreated, and Zhu Shang did not take the opportunity to attack. After all, they came from a long way and their condition has not recovered to the best. It is a good thing to fight one day later.
