lonely king

The war in the Central Plains became more and more fierce. Because Qiang Zhu sent troops, the battle in the western border was no longer evenly matched. Both Xizhao and Qiang Zhu attacked on both sides of the western border of Nanming. Before the [-] troops sent by Nanming arrived at Taoyang City, they were defeated Jian made a surprise attack on the hill outside the city, and the [-] reinforcements were wiped out.

Sai Jian's action not only shocked Gongsun Zhi, but also surprised Yue Yi, who was regarded as a friendly army. Most importantly, it shocked the surrounding small countries, as if telling these small countries that were still eyeing Tao Yang, that he was not overconfident. Sending troops to Nanming is inevitable!

Of course, Baili Nian's plan to raid the Nanming reinforcements came from the hands of Baili Nian.

On the border of Nanming, in the barracks of the Xizhao Army.

Yue Ming in military uniform looked at the battle report from the fast horse with a complicated expression on his face. This was not the battle report from the front line, but the battle report from Taoyang City.

"Tao Yang's battle report, the Nanming army was defeated, isn't it a good thing, why does the king have such an expression?"

This battle report was handed over by Yue Zhixin. She already knew the situation of Taoyang City. Saijian, king of Qiangzhu, captured [-] cities including Taoyang and wiped out the [-] troops reinforced by Nanming. No one dared to think about the city in Sai Jian's hands anymore.

"Eldest sister, do you think this is a good thing?" Yue Ming put down the battle report, raised his eyes to look at Yue Zhixin with complicated eyes.

Yue Zhixin pursed his lips lightly, and he became more calm, "There are gains and losses in everything. At that time, Mr. Baili promised that Qiang Zhuo would send troops to help Xi Zhao, and now he has fulfilled his promise, but Mr. Baili is Qiang Zhuo. Why didn’t the counselors think about Qiang Zhuo, I’m afraid they had already set their sights on Taoyang City, so they would make promises to the king.”

Yue Wei supported his forehead, with an irritable expression on his face, "When I sent troops to Nanming, this king also took a fancy to Tao Yangcheng, but Tao Yang was far away from Xi Zhaoyuan, and this king wanted to overthrow Nanming. Yangcheng, now that Sai Jian is stationed in Taoyang, no matter how much this king thinks about this Taoyang city, he will never touch it again!"

Yue Zhixin nodded, and she frowned slightly, she understood the entanglement in Yue Zhi's heart.

"Qiang Zhuo sent troops, and we were originally sympathetic. Now that King Qiang Zhuo is stationed in Taoyang, how can we go to ask for Taoyang City because of emotion and reason? The world." Yuezhi smiled wryly, "I'm afraid that when Mr. Baili made the promise, it has already counted to today."

Qiang Zhu sent troops in the name of aiding Xizhao. Now that Taoyang City has been taken down, it is absolutely impossible for Xizhao to want Taoyang, otherwise it would be ungrateful.

Baili Nian's move of emotional chess is too perfect and too accurate!

Yue Ming clenched his fist and slammed it on the table, "This king made a mistake, you shouldn't trust this person too much!"

But Yue Zhixin shook her head, she patted Yue Ming's arm, "Your Majesty's words are wrong, Mr. Baili has never lied to the King, and all the promises that should be fulfilled have been fulfilled. He is Qiang Zhuo's counselor after all. , Naturally, Qiang Zhu will be the first, if the king can win over this person, it will definitely help the king's great cause."

In troubled times, what is trust? Yue Zhi has a delicate mind. Although she is a daughter, she is actually the most scheming person around Yue Ming. By her side, if she can do this, she will feel more at ease.

"This king has fought for it several times, but...but Baili Nian is not willing!"

Yue Ming felt a little bit resentful, he also knew that Baili Nian was talented and had the heart to win, but Baili Nian refused to accept it.

"I don't know what Sai Jian gave him, but let Nanlin Shenji, the best in the world, follow his subordinates so wholeheartedly, this king really doesn't understand!"

Yue Zhixin also sighed, supported his forehead slightly, and coughed a few times, "Elder Sister is shallow-minded, and I don't understand this person's thoughts."

"Elder Sister, what are you talking about? Eldest Sister is doing all she can for this King and Xi Zhao. She is not feeling well and still follows this King to fight. This King just feels sorry for Eldest Sister."

Yue Ji hurriedly supported Yue Zhixin, sat on the soft seat, quickly asked the servant girl to pour a cup of tea, and handed it to Yue Zhixin himself.Yue Zhixin has always been bad, but she was worried that Yue Wei would go to Nanming alone, so she dragged her sick body along with the army, planning an army formation for Yue Wei, Yue Zhi could take twenty or thirty cities in Nanming, half of Yue Zhixin credit.

Yue Wei felt sorry for his elder sister, but he had to drag Yue Zhixin to the barracks, because there were too few advisers around him.

"You and my dearest relative, I plan for the king and Xizhao. It's only right and proper. The king doesn't have to feel guilty. It's just..." Yue Zhixin twisted his handkerchief and covered the corner of his mouth, "It's just that the eldest sister is not in good health, so I don't know if I can accompany the king. When will your majesty win over talented people from all over the world so that he can gain a firm foothold in this troubled world."

"Eldest sister, don't say such depressing words, elder sister's health will definitely get better, and this king will find all the famous doctors in the world to heal elder sister's illness."

Yue Zhixin pursed the corners of his lips, and smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, what is important about my crippled body, what matters is Xi Zhao and Your Majesty. If your Majesty can't bring Baili Nian to Xi Zhao, you can change your mind. Qiangmao is no longer the small border country it was at the beginning, but a country that cannot be ignored in the world. Sai Jian holds the news and transportation hub of Taoyang City in his hand, and has the plan of the Baili Nian Gang. Not to be underestimated."

Yue Zhixin raised his eyes slightly, and the eyes gradually darkened, "If we can't move Baili Nian, why can't we put some thought into Sai Jian, we don't know what Bai Li Nian wants, so what about Sai Jian? So, it is a good thing for Xizhao to protect the friendly relations between Xizhao and Qiang Zhuo, and it is best to place our eyeliner next to Sai Jian, so that we can keep abreast of Qiang Zhu's movements."

Yue Zhixin's words entered Yue Ji's heart. He had nothing to do with Baili Nian, but Qiang Zhu, where Bai Li Nian was located, was no longer the small frontier country before, so he had to be on guard. After all, Qiang Zhu was behind Xizhao. What Xi Zhao does, Yue Ming will be caught off guard.

"Elder Sister's words are true, but Sai Jian, that reckless man, how can I agree with him, beauty? Money? What else do you want?!"

Yue Ming doesn't like to negotiate with Sai Jian, but now he has to negotiate, this kind of mood is not good at all.

Yue Zhi lowered his eyes and thought about it, and raised his eyes after a long while, "Marry with Qiang Zhuo. After the king captures the city to the east, it will be close to Taoyang City. The king will escort me to Taoyang."

"Eldest sister to go to Tao Yang in person?"

Yue Ji stood up, looking at Yue Zhixin's calm and beautiful face, he frowned tightly, "Does elder sister want to be Xi Zhao Zai Qiang's eyes?"

Yue Zhixin looked at Yue Ming, with tears in his smile, "I can't fight for the king, but I hope to do my best for the king."

At first Yue Zhi wanted to marry Qiang Zhu, Yue Zhixin was somewhat reluctant, but now, Yue Zhixin brought up the matter first.

"But the last time we got married, Sai Jian didn't want to... I don't want my elder sister to be wronged!"

Yue Ming held Yue Zhixin's hand tightly, the elder sister was his close relative, she assisted in the planning for seven years, and devoted all her energy to him, and now she even planned it herself, only for him and Xi Zhao.

"Your Majesty can just send me to Taoyang, don't worry."

Yue Zhi's heart brushed Yue Ming's cheek, her younger brother has grown up and will become the most powerful king of Xizhao, and Xi Zhao will also become a powerful country in the world. The desire to dominate the world is not only hidden in Yue Ming's heart, the weak Zhixin also has great ambitions, she wants all the land in the world to enter Xizhao, and she will be ashamed of Yeling back then!To avenge my father and king!

……

Because of the sudden appearance of Qiang Zhu, it was not only Xi Zhao who was thinking about it, but the most shocked and resentful one was Nan Ming Wang Gongsun Zhi.

In Nanming's study room, Gongsun Zhi held the battle report in his hand, crushed it into a ball, and threw it to the ground.

"Where did this Saijian come from! How dare a barbarian dare to offend me, Nanming!"

"Ask you! What about the reinforcements you sent! Why is there no news!" Gongsun Zhi stared at the minister kneeling in the hall, furious.

"Back... back to the king, add... reinforcements, before they entered Taoyang, they were ambushed... perish."

"What did you say!?"

Gongsun Zhi stared wide-eyed, with unbelievable eyes, Tao Yang was quite far away from the Nanming King City, Gongsun Zhi got the news later than Yue Ming, and the latest news of rushing to the horse only entered Nanming at this moment.

The minister trembled, "Ten... one hundred thousand imperial guards, the whole army was wiped out..."

"Trash! Trash! A bunch of trash!"

Gongsun Zhi raised his foot and kicked the minister on the shoulder, and kicked him to the ground. Because of his anger, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and the veins around his neck were bulging. Gongsun Zhi's anger could not be concealed, and all broke out.

The battle between the northern border and Bei Yan Yuwen Yang became more and more unbearable. Now even the battlefield in the western border has been broken. I remembered Zhang You's words.

"The war was not accidental, it was deliberately led by others. Your Majesty, don't act on your will."

Gongsun Zhi clenched his fists tightly, looked at the ministers kneeling in the hall, all fell silent, no one dared to look up, and no one offered him any advice.

Looking at these people, Gongsun Zhi suddenly sneered, feeling a little sad in his heart.

"Get lost! Go ask Zhang You to come here."

Only then did he think of Zhang You, but Zhang You had been imprisoned in the mansion for a long time, and he didn't know if he would enter the palace again.
