While Huan Wen was massacring the Angkor barbarians and dreaming of the dream of being the emperor of Funan, the real king of Funan now, well, or the nominal king of Funan, Fuman Mang Gongtuo I.
He no longer even had nightmares. He had a splitting headache from worrying about national affairs every day, so there was no chance for him to dream.
There was no way, the entire Manggontuo dynasty was frequently invaded by foreign enemies. In addition to the old enemies of the Cypriot states in the south, the Murong Xianbei people in the northwest also showed their greedy ambitions. Not only did they collude with the Sasanian Persians, but they also repeatedly Testing on the border is a sign of starting another war.
In the east of the Manggontuo dynasty, things had settled down a bit through humiliating suing for peace.
But now?
The barbarians of Sai who had originally settled down within the Manggontuo dynasty suddenly revolted. Not only did they attack the royal city, but they also transported a large amount of food into the hinterland of the Manggontuo dynasty. Moreover, these barbarians began to burn Manggonto dynasty wantonly. The food and fodder of the dynasty.
Although millions of troops defended the royal city, it was still difficult to withstand the barbarian attack.
"Damn it! These Cypriot barbarians are so rampant!"
"Damn barbarians!"
"Hateful barbarians!"
"Damn the Cyborg!"
At this moment, people in the Manggontuo Dynasty were already panicking, and these barbarians also took the opportunity to start looting the property in the royal city, and even started a civil uprising in the palace.
But in another place in the royal city, the situation is much better than here.
This is Malai, a country made up of a large number of islands. Malai is a very rich and prosperous country, and the human culture here is also very developed. The power of the Malai royal family is very powerful, and they have power throughout the entire country of Malai. A very huge force.
At this moment, in the palace of Malai Kingdom, Emperor Fu Amuto of Malai Kingdom was discussing the current situation in the country with several princes.
"Your Majesty, the current situation is very serious!"
One of the princes said to Fu Amu Tuo.
Hearing the prince's words, Fu Amutuo nodded.
The state situation in Marais is now very serious, and the barbarians' counterattacks are becoming more and more fierce. The most critical thing now is the harassment of the barbarians on the border.
The barbarian army is stationed in the territory of the Serbian barbarians closest to the border, and may start attacking at any time.
Fu Amutuo now felt like he was at the end of his rope, and he wouldn't be able to hold on for a few more days if he continued like this.
The current situation no longer allows him to wait any longer. If he doesn't think of a way, I'm afraid his throne as king will not be guaranteed.
"My dear friends, I have a plan. What do you think?"
After hearing what Fuamutuo said, all the ministers immediately stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, please give me your permission!"
Fuamutuo nodded with satisfaction and said: "My dear friends, we need to change the current situation. We must change the current situation. The only way now is to terminate the alliance with Seychelles, and at the same time we must let Seychelles The country sent reinforcements to help us."
"No! This is absolutely not okay!"
Before Fu Amutuo could finish speaking, he immediately encountered opposition from all the ministers.
"Why not?" Fu Amutuo asked very puzzledly. Marai is already very dangerous now. If we don't find a way quickly, I am afraid that the entire Marai country will be destroyed by barbarians.
"Although the barbarians of Serbia have been harassing us on the border, they have not launched a large-scale attack. If we cancel the alliance rashly now, I am afraid they will take advantage of it. Although we have the advantage this time, if the barbarians really launch a If the whole country attacks, we may not be able to protect the royal city!" A slightly older prince said to Fu Amutuo.
After hearing what the prince said, other princes also expressed their opinions, saying that it was not appropriate to act rashly now. Once a war broke out with the barbarians, they would definitely suffer.
"So what should we do now?"
Fu Amutuo frowned and looked at everyone present. He didn't understand what he should do about the current situation.
"Your Majesty, if we give up now, our country may change hands, and we have a large amount of money and food stored in our treasury. If we give up now, our losses will be huge!"
"yes!"
"Your Majesty, if we give up now, we may give the barbarians an opportunity to take advantage of us."
"The way I see it! We might as well send troops to suppress the barbarian rebellion first, and then wait until our army has completely suppressed the barbarian rebellion before deciding whether to continue to cooperate with the barbarians!"
"Well, okay! I agree. We will do as you said, stabilize our own situation first, and then consider what to do next!" Fu Amutuo nodded and approved the proposal.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Fu Amutuo's answer.
But at this moment, a soldier suddenly ran in from outside.
The soldier ran over in a panic and knelt on the ground.
"See Your Majesty!"
Looking at the soldier who ran in, everyone looked at the soldier who ran in puzzledly. They didn't know what happened to him to make him so panicked.
"You are so panicked, what happened?" Fu Amutuo frowned and asked.
"Your Majesty, a barbarian army has broken through our defense line and is now pressing towards our royal city!" The soldier said to Fuamu Tuo with a look of fear on his face.
Everyone present was shocked when they heard the news.
The barbarians moved too fast. They actually defeated our country's defense forces in such a short period of time and went straight to Huanglong.
"What? An army of barbarians actually broke through our blockade and came to our royal city. Then wouldn't our royal city be about to fall?"
"These damn barbarians, are they crazy? They dare to invade us. They are so audacious!"
"Impossible. We have a large army. How can they defeat us?"
...
All the ministers were discussing, but they also knew the seriousness of the matter.
"Your Majesty, now that something has happened, we must immediately find a way to resist the barbarian army. If the barbarian army is allowed to come in, then our entire country may be razed to the ground!"
"Yes! Your Majesty, we cannot sit still and wait for death. We must find a way to resist the barbarian army, we must prevent the barbarian army from invading, and we must fight back the barbarian army!"
"Yes, we must resist the attack of the barbarian army. We must hold on. We must resist the attack of the barbarian army!"
...
With the encouragement of all the ministers, Fu Amutuo took a deep breath.
"Send the order, everyone gathers and prepares to meet the barbarian attack. I want to see how powerful the barbarian army is."
"yes!"
After Fu Amutuo's words fell, all the ministers immediately went to deliver the order.
But soon, they gathered together, waiting for Fu Amutuo's call in the main hall.
After a while, Fu Amutuo walked out of the palace with a group of ministers, followed by two maids.
These two maids are dedicated to serving Fuamuto, so they are also martial arts masters.
Fu Amutuo led the two martial arts masters out of the palace and walked towards the direction of the Marai Kingdom's army.
Behind Fu Amutuo, there was a small group of cavalry, each carrying a horse on their crotch.
These cavalrymen are Fuamutuo's personal guards, each one is a master, and these cavalrymen are carefully selected from the army in Fuamutuo's hands.
When Fu Amutuo led a large number of ministers to the military camp of Marai Kingdom, Fu Amutuo's eyes couldn't help but widen.
I saw that there were already densely packed soldiers in front of the military camp of Malai State. There were a large number of Amu shelves placed outside the military camp of Malai State, and on these Amu shelves, there were pieces of armor. The weapons on Amu's shelf were all extremely sharp swords, guns, swords and halberds, and each weapon was stained with scarlet blood.
After seeing these swords, guns, swords and halberds, everyone's eyes couldn't help but flicker.
"Your Majesty, you see, these swords, guns, swords and halberds are all weapons used by the prisoners we captured to practice using weapons!" A minister said to Fuamu Tuo.
After hearing what the minister said, Fu Amutuo also looked at the swords and blades.
When his eyes saw those swords and blades, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
"Have you ever heard of something called Sword Formation?"
After Fu Amutuo thought for a while, he looked at the ministers beside him and asked.
"I have never heard of this formation. Could it be that those swords and weapons can be used to form a sword formation?" After hearing Fu Amutuo's words, a minister said.
"Yes, I have also heard about the power of this formation, and now many of our soldiers are injured. If we cannot form this formation, then the lives of these soldiers will be difficult to protect!" Another The minister also said to Fu Amutuo.
"Your Majesty, no matter what, we still can't let the lives of those soldiers be lost here!" A minister said to Fu Amutuo.
After hearing the words of these ministers, Fu Amutuo nodded, and then spoke.
"Okay! If this is the case, then I will issue an order to order all the soldiers to be on guard and to intercept the barbarian army!"
Following Fuamutuo's order, the ministers of Malai State immediately began to issue orders.
Soon, the soldiers of Malai State began to distribute military power and began to carry out the orders given by Fuamu Tuo.
I have to admit that Fuamu Tuo is indeed a very talented king.
Not only can he grasp the hearts of the people, but he also possesses extremely high wisdom and courage.
Soon, Fuamu Tuo issued one order after another, asking all the soldiers to be on guard and strictly abide by the orders. No one was allowed to leave their posts without permission.
"Okay! Now everyone has heard my order clearly. I order you to immediately organize soldiers to attack the barbarian army. No matter what, you cannot let the barbarian army step into our Malai territory!"
"yes!"
After hearing Fuamutuo's order, all the ministers responded in unison.
And then, Fu Amutuo turned around and returned to his dormitory, preparing to start attacking the barbarian army the next day after a night's rest.
After helping Amutuo return to the dormitory, the ministers of Malai Kingdom also dispersed one after another, each returning to their own military camp to rest.
In their hearts, they are all very tired now.
After all, they can be said to have tried their best to attack the barbarian army in the past few days, so their physical strength has been obviously exhausted.
And in this battle, they all paid a heavy price. They were all chopped down to the ground by the barbarian warriors, and some even had their arms cut off.
But in this battle, they had no complaints at all, only full of hatred and anger. They wanted to kill all their enemies.
This is the reason why Fuamu Tuo led troops to attack the country of Malai this time.
"Report!"
At this time, a soldier rushed into the dormitory, rushed in and knelt down on one knee in front of Fuamutuo, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the barbarian army is getting closer and closer to Fuamutuo City. It is estimated that in ten days Then we can reach the city where we are supporting Amutuo!"
"What?" After hearing what the soldier said, Amutuo's fists were clenched tightly together, and his eyes were filled with anger.
"According to my decree, immediately mobilize the army to prepare. Once the barbarian army arrives, they will launch a fierce attack. I must teach them a lesson!"
Fu Amutuo said in a cold and murderous tone.
He also knew very well that his time was running out.
Now Fuamutuo was forced to a dead end.
"Here! I take your orders!" After listening to Fu Amutuo's words, the minister who was kneeling on the ground immediately stood up and then retreated.
Soon, he sent soldiers to spread out around the Marai Kingdom, asking other soldiers to strengthen their defenses.
Soon, Malai's army began to enter a state of war preparation and could counterattack at any time.
At the same time, in another city in the Marai Kingdom, a city named Marai City, there was the Prime Minister's Mansion of the Marai Kingdom.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, a group of ministers also gathered here one after another, with their brows furrowed, as if they were discussing some important decision.
While they were discussing, a short and fat old man suddenly ran in from outside the door. After running in, the old man quickly knelt down and shouted to the Prime Minister: "The Prime Minister is in trouble, you barbarian." The army has already come and is heading towards our city!"
"What?"
After hearing what the old man said, the faces of these ministers suddenly became extremely ugly.
They never expected that this barbarian army would come so quickly.
"Come here!"
