Biography of Haiguo

The next few days were as calm as ever.Although the quarrel was very unpleasant before, after all, national affairs are bigger than the sky, and personal grievances are put aside first. Satya and Shen Rufeng listened carefully to the informant, deployed defenses and other measures against the enemy intensively. During the period, they did hear some rumors: The Dian army of about 2000 people tried to "smuggle" at night along the border between Gaochang and Yuezhi. As a result, they were stopped by the Gaochang army at the border in time, and all of them were captured alive and became prisoners of war.

For these Qin captives, Satya strongly advocated killing them all on the spot to avoid future troubles; but Shen Rufeng thought it was inappropriate.Looking at the "old, weak, sick and disabled" sitting on the ground trembling, she frowned deeply: "These people cannot be killed. Execution of prisoners of war without reason is not in line with international law, and it is too cruel. It will bring a negative impact on the image of the empire." very negative impact."

"How can you be afraid of everything!" Satya was so angry that his beard cocked up: "I said that there must be a limit to being soft-hearted, right? If these guys don't kill them, will they waste our military rations?"

"No," Shen Rufeng said, "let them go back. Also, immediately send a telegram to His Majesty, asking him to order the cities around the royal court to prepare to defend against the enemy-these people are just a cover released by Shen Changhe, he accepted It is very likely that we will raid the royal court when we come down!"

At the same time, Tok City.

It is far away from the border, and it is the place where the Gaochang Empire's economy and trade are the most developed, the most international, and the people's life is the most prosperous.The tradition of mercantile makes people here more open-minded and inclusive, and they will not make too much fuss about people with foreign appearance.

—Even though, recently, many Koreans and Baiyue people have come one after another.

Although the empire has recently promulgated a series of bans to strictly check the entry of Qin people, although these people are not much different from Qin people in appearance, they can indeed use Korean and Baiyue languages, so the local officials did not take it too seriously .

until one night.

The residents were in their dreams, and they heard a short and intense gunshot outside in a daze.The years were wild and chaotic, and occasionally horse bandits would go down the mountain to loot, so the common people didn't take it seriously; but when they woke up the next day, everyone was surprised to find that there were many more patrollers on the street. Soldier:

Moreover, it is still the Yunnan Army!

"When did the Yunnan army come in?" Someone asked others in a low voice: "Didn't the national teacher confront the Qin people at the border of the ancient city of Jiashi?"

Soon, his question was answered.In the downtown square, an extremely tall man in military uniform held up a loudspeaker to test the sound: "Hello, hello."

His voice was very low and deep, and it became very clear through the loudspeaker, so clear that all the nearby vendors who were about to open the market could hear it clearly.People's eyes were involuntarily attracted to him, and gradually, more and more people were watching.

"I'm very sorry to disturb you all." A gentle and elegant smile appeared on the face of the young man in military uniform, who was so beautiful that he was not human.

After occupying Tok City with lightning speed, Shen Changhe relied on the munitions supply of Tok City, and at the same time joined forces with the armored corps that joined forces from the rear. The troops were divided into three groups to launch a blitzkrieg. Xuncheng and all the way cavalry attacked Yihe City from the left flank, while he personally led the heavily armed heavy armored corps to advance all the way in depth.Although there was resistance in the middle, the obstacles encountered in the middle were not considered strong because the left and right wings were killed without leaving any armor, and the defenders who had not had time to react were caught off guard. Therefore, the obstacles encountered in the middle were not considered strong. Conquer eight cities one after another, and go straight to Gaochang Royal Court!

"hateful!"

It wasn't until this time that Gaochang Emperor Farhad finally regretted that he shouldn't have underestimated Shen Changhe.This time, he didn't ask Misaki Ito's opinion, and directly issued a decree: order the national teacher Nadia Hormuz to lead the army back immediately to defend Gasa City.

However, after Shen Rufeng received the emperor's imperial decree, he only replied this telegram: "The general is away, and the emperor's order is not acceptable. Please tell your majesty that Shen Changhe's move is to encircle Wei and save Zhao, so he must not be impatient. It is enough for the imperial guards to guard the capital. Within three days, Shen Changhe will surely collapse without a fight."

Farhad was already dizzy from the panic, how could he still listen to the harsh advice?Flew to the front line of the border with thirteen imperial decrees in succession, each wording became more severe, and finally threatened her directly, "If you resist the decree again and don't obey it, all the people in the National Teacher's Mansion will be executed for treason!"

After receiving such an imperial edict, Shen Rufeng finally did not refuse this time.Farhad is very aware of her character traits of being soft-hearted and ignorant of abandoning sons. Shen Rufeng also knows this well: the little emperor has made sure that she will never let him deal with those servants, so this time she There is no more choice.

The development of the matter was as Shen Changhe thought and as Shen Rufeng expected-on the same day that most of Shen Rufeng's troops withdrew from the ancient city of Jiashi, the Dian army ambushing around launched a general offensive without hesitation and annihilated all of them in one fell swoop. The few defenders in the city regained the disputed area!

Three days later, the Yunnan Army of the Three Routes joined forces in Gasha, the royal city of Gaochang; at the same time, the elite troops of the National Teacher Nadia Hormuz also arrived in time.So, in this unprecedented embarrassing situation, the two brothers and sisters met again——

This time, as the commander-in-chief of the enemy armies on both sides, they faced each other from a distance across a not-so-wide moat.

"General Shen."

Shen Rufeng used this title for the first time.She was riding on a war horse, and said solemnly: "The ancient city of Jiashi has been returned to Zhao, and your goal has been achieved. Can you stop the troops and return to the country, so that the well water will not violate the river water?"

"Master Guoshi, don't you think it's too late to say this?"

Shen Changhe smiled and raised the whip in his hand, stopped the eager soldiers behind him, and said: "Before the declaration of war, I gave you a chance. It was you who didn't want to turn hostility into friendship, so the two countries meet in arms today."

Deep winter, Liangzhou City.

Except for the Southwest, today's flower epidemic has been raging across the country, and it even seems to be getting worse.Fortunately, before Shen Changhe decisively ordered the closure of the city, this place will not be full of bones like other places.

But after all, in the face of catastrophe, no one can survive alone.Pei Xuan is getting old, and because of some well-known reasons, he is very passive in handling government affairs. Now Li Yunling has become the actual leader of the Southwest Military Government. Facing the increasingly severe situation, she is also a little helpless.

Although good news continued to come from the northwest border that the Yunnan Army had conquered several cities in Gaochang like a bamboo, but she was not happy at all.Reason told her that everything was going well, but her heart made her more and more worried and fearful.

She always felt that things were not that simple.

This suspicion is not groundless.Although Zhang Mu is a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, he is absolutely unambiguous in major matters-according to her "instructions", his subordinates have been watching Pei Yuxiu and He Bo, who has always lived reclusively, and report every move of these two people every day. Report to her.Luckily, Uncle He didn't change anything, but Pei Yuxiu didn't stop during this period, instead she frequently contacted a very sensitive person.

This person is the general Sheng Qi who was sent to the southwest border to defend against the enemy.

When Shen Changhe went out to fight, he took Qin Lang, who had always had a grudge with him, with him, but left his valued general Sheng Qi to guard the southwest border. Many people, including Li Yunling, felt incomprehensible.But at this juncture, Pei Yuxiu, a suspicious person, has frequently contacted Sheng Qi. Although the two of them haven't acted unusually yet, it still makes Li Yunling feel worried.

"Shen Changhe, when will you come back...the backyard is about to catch fire." She covered her face with a headache and muttered to herself.At this moment, a communications officer suddenly ran in from outside, and shouted as soon as he came in: "Li, Secretary Li, something is wrong! Fifth Master, Fifth Master, he was... taken away by unknown persons!"

Raid ([-])

"There is no so-called 'equality' in this world. Only God of Plague is the one who suffers. Therefore, only Almighty God can save everyone!"

One month after the epidemic spread, a cult that claimed to be "Almighty God" sprang up in the Central Plains.Its congregants claim to be loyal believers of Almighty God, and their purpose is to completely eliminate "smallpox" and its infected persons: they believe that smallpox is God's punishment, and the infected person "deserves it".

"That is to say, as long as the patient is infected with smallpox, in the eyes of these cultists, they should all die." Xu Manshu said: "There is news from Liangzhou, saying that thanks to the plague and this bastard cult, the border guards are almost dead. I can't stop the refugees who punched the card, I hope we will be able to class as soon as possible."

"That's what I meant."

Shen Changhe stretched comfortably.In the past few days, the two armies have been fighting hand-to-hand. Shen Rufeng, who has always been invincible on the battlefield in the Western Regions, did not get any advantage, and even faintly showed signs of retreating.

—Actually, it’s not her fault.Due to Farhad's strategic mistakes, the surrounding areas of the royal court and even the vast hinterland were all reduced to supplies for the Southwest Yunnan Army, so they were at a disadvantage.

"But our side is taking advantage, how can we give up the great opportunity to destroy Gaochang royal court at this juncture..."

Shen Changhe shook his head, and said: "You are too optimistic. If it wasn't for that idiot Farhad who couldn't hold his breath, my good sister would have joined forces with the defenders in the royal city to attack our army back and forth. And a protracted war, we have no chance of winning."

Xu Manshu was obviously not reconciled: "...so, we just
