"Brother Tianci, if Prince Ping had endangered the King of England that day, even if he had not plotted against the King of England, the King of England would never have taken advantage of Xiangyang even if he had revolted. They are both members of the royal family and should have joined hands to clear the throne. To Zhen Chao Gang, however, people’s hearts are unpredictable, alas, no matter how much I say, it will be meaningless.”
Xu Lang handed over his hand again, and in just a few words, he explained the reason why the British king raised troops to Xiangyang.
Of course, this is not the only reason. No one can take Xiangyang's strategic location lightly. Even if the British king had no intention of conquering Xiangyang, he could not allow the imperial army to conquer Xiangyang. It's just that the matter is over, and it's useless to talk about it.
But how did Qin Tianci know about this? He only knew that the King of England and King Fu suddenly sent troops to drive the eldest prince out of Changsha County. He had never known these things before. And even the eldest prince did not understand why the King of England sent troops to Xiangyang City.
"Oh, is this happening?"
Qin Tianci asked in surprise.
"It's absolutely true. Xu never lies to himself."
Xu Lang answered calmly and smiled calmly.
"Okay! In that case, I ask you two generals to be kind to my brothers!"
At this point, Qin Tianci finally nodded. At that time, his determination to die was gone, but his ambition was reborn. He was also an upright man, not someone who did not understand right and wrong. On the one hand, he could not bear to betray his Lord, but on the other hand, he had a righteous heart. He felt that if he could save more lives, it would be a meritorious deed.
In this way, the short episode ended, and the soldiers continued to move forward along the path in the forest.
In this confrontation, Qin Tianci led a thousand men, nearly 200 were killed and more than 100 were seriously injured. The others surrendered one after another after Qin Tianci was subdued by Xu Lang. On Xu Lang's side, nearly two hundred people were lost in two battles, while Zhu Yunfei's losses were heavier, almost a thousand people were killed, and hundreds of people could no longer fight.
As we chased them all the way, we could see traces of the enemy's hasty flight. When fleeing for their lives, the eldest prince seemed to have lost sight of the rules and regulations he was so proud of.
The stretches of Damiao Mountain are connected from one mountain to another. Fortunately, the area where the two parties compete is some distance away from each Miao village. In this way, although there were Miao people snooping on the side, they did not interfere. Of course, this sudden battle made them a little nervous.
At noon, the eldest prince finally fled to a valley exhausted. From then on, it was a smooth journey out. After another hundred miles, we will approach Wuling County.
At this time, looking back at the generally miserable soldiers around him, the eldest prince suddenly felt a sense of sadness in his heart. He came out of Changsha County with tens of thousands of soldiers. He thought that after arriving in Yiling, he would be able to stabilize his feet and plan for Shizhou, so that he could accomplish something. Now, we are being chased and beaten by enemy troops along the way. Almost half of them have been killed or scattered.
"Your Highness, don't be sad anymore. Three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu. Besides, you have us accompanying you, and you will be able to make a comeback in the future!"
Qin Tianzhao still had confidence. Seeing the eldest prince's gloomy look, Qin Tianzhao quickly offered words of comfort.
"Alas, Amaterasu, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult. God sent us to delay and resist the enemy. We haven't heard any news yet. It's expected that something unexpected will happen, which makes my Highness really sad. Now, even if they turn to Wuling County, the Xuan family and his son don't know what they can do. Can you tolerate us? Your Highness, you really can’t bear to be bullied by a dog when a tiger falls in peace!"
The eldest prince stood with his hands behind his hands and sighed deeply.
Could it be that he didn't understand the thoughts of Xuan and his son at all? When Changsha County was attacked by Ling Yue, the Xuan family and his son did not send any soldiers to help. They just sat on the wall and watched the fire from across the bank. This fully shows that Prince Ping's Mansion has lost its control over them. Especially when Xiangyang was defeated and their father was retreating steadily, and they didn't know where they were going, they had to make plans for themselves. If I surrender to them in such a situation, it will be a hot potato for them.
And once he enters Wuling County, he is still a prince after all, and he has more than 10,000 or 20,000 troops under his command. How do you teach them how to deal with them?
