Not to mention the preparations made by Zhuang Xun and others for this, the territory of Youguo, where spring has already begun and flowers are blooming, is filled with the lights of swords and the sound of gold and drums.
The two armies fought, and the army covered them up. Under the attack of the imperial army, the king's army became as fragile as glass.
Because there are several fierce generals in the imperial army, ordinary soldiers cannot approach them. In this world, it is not a dream to have a thousand soldiers on one horse.
The war situation gradually tilted, and in the end the army of the county king was defeated. People trampled on each other and chased each other to the north. Another great victory.
They killed people, ransacked their homes, and the normally aloof princes were nothing more than resentful ghosts under the knife.
If you can't take care of the Yu State, you can't take care of the people in your family who are always chirping? I can’t afford to offend Li Pingyuan, but I can’t afford to offend you?
Don't ask. If you ask, it means you are rebellious.
As for whether the princes are rebellious, of course they are. King You is acting in a counter-intuitive way. Do you think they are rebellious?
The black-clad guards ransacked the house and killed anyone who made disloyal remarks. You are a usurper. Now that you have done this, how can you not have some complaints in your heart?
Recently, they started killing people for some reason. Who can bear this? And there is no reason. They kill people so casually, like killing chickens.
The main reason is that we are monkeys and we are all frightened. Who else are you going to kill?
This is the fate of the clan. Do you think they are stupid? Of course, these people cannot sit still and wait for death. However, if they resist, they will only become the remnants of the sword.
The imperial army was too strong. Even if the princes from various places rebelled, the generals of the other side would still be more brave than the princes.
There is no solution to this. Just be honest and wait for the Wuyi Guards to investigate, and they will definitely find evidence of collusion with the eldest prince. If they don't wait for the investigation, they will start an uprising and be suppressed by the imperial army.
Now it is a desperate fight, and they are connected together to form a north-south echo and an east-west direction.
In the tent, King You had a sinister look on his face, holding the wine glass pretending to be elegant. After a while, a Nanyue County Prince who was tied into a rice dumpling was carried in. Too many clansmen were killed, but today's one was a bit special, as it was the one who had helped him ascend before. The uncle who ascended the throne of You.
"Uncle, I usually treat you well, and I give you many rewards during festivals. I didn't expect you to plot a rebellion." He is weak and vicious, and his face does not look angry, but it looks sinister.
The thin face does not look like a human being. There is a saying that it is said to be wearing a crown while wearing a monkey. King You is like this at this moment. He is wearing the clothes of an emperor, but he has an air that is not like a human king.
"Kill if you want. How can there be so much nonsense? Wu Yiwei investigates for a day, and you will find out any problem if there is no problem." Prince Nanyue snorted coldly, quite courageous.
"If you are innocent, how can you be afraid of the investigation by Wu Yiwei." King You snorted coldly. Although this was his uncle, and he even helped him when he ascended the throne, but he had the news that he secretly hooked up with his eldest brother. This People are no longer considered relatives by him.
"Haha, innocent, you will be devoured by the demon after you play with the demon. The eldest prince has already invited reinforcements. Your good days are over!" King Nanyue knew that he had no good life, so he stopped defending and laughed.
"Reinforcements, where can he move reinforcements? The envoys of Jing and Zheng are in the capital, how can Zhao State move at all?" King You was sure that Zhao State would not send troops, so he wiped out the clan in such a large-scale, because the clan and him My brother is disconnected.
He drank the wine in one gulp, and everything was under his control. He quickly eliminated the clan and killed the eldest brother who was hiding. No one in You Country could be more orthodox than him.
"Don't forget Chengguo, and don't forget that there is Yuguo. If you act without scruples and are cruel and cruel, one day you will die by someone else's sword." Prince Nanyue cursed and said with death The final decision before.
"Whose sword? You are now under my sword. You originally asked me to serve you out of consideration for Nie Qing and asked me to treat you as my biological father. But now it seems that he has made a mistake!" King You sneered and mocked mercilessly. , fearless, he still doesn’t know the two countries, both are busy with internal matters.
"You have the nerve to mention Qing'er, you have the nerve to mention him. He died because of you and that bitch, the lonely Qing'er." At this point, Nanyue couldn't control himself, and tears fell heavily, thinking of his whereabouts. Sad thing.
When King You was fighting for the throne, he was still unable to control the demon clan, and other princes had already attacked him. It was Nie Qing who saved him.
Nie Qing, who died at that time, entrusted King You to take good care of his old father, hoping that King You would treat Prince Nanyue as his own father.
"Nie Qing would be ashamed if he knew that you were speaking for the enemy we were facing together and that you were colluding with each other. You are truly ashamed to be a father." Standing high on the moral high ground, King You said judgmentally.
"I am ashamed to be a father. I shouldn't have let Qing'er go to Hengdu, nor let him meet you, the Sangmenxingxing, and that shameless bitch, nor should I have let him stop thinking about fulfilling you two. Even if you die, I still support you to become the King of You. How can you be the King of You, a wolf-hearted thing like you! Unfilial son, unfilial son, how could you save such a wolf-hearted thing?"
The King of Nanyue cursed loudly. At that time, he thought of his son's wish and took the lead in recognizing Nie Jin's status. He did not expect that the so-called wise king in his son's mouth was just a small family thing where his son and daughter love each other.
That bitch Si Qinning was angered by King You, so she left the country of You. Then King You, who had just inherited the country, left the country behind and went after him, triggering several rebellions and killing many people in the end. This can also be called a wise king. ?
The foolish king and tyrant are nothing more than this. The single husband and the few kings admired and admired him. Anyway, the Nanyue County King couldn't bear it, so he requested to return to the fiefdom. But he didn't expect that it would not be so easy to take refuge in the fiefdom.
"You have disappointed Nie Qing so much. How could a good person like Nie Qing have a father like you? He obviously died protecting Ning'er. He was happy and it was his lifelong wish. As his father, you are not only You cannot understand and instead slander him, you deserve to die." King You's eyes were sinister and vicious, and his logic was so crazy. Anyway, in his eyes, he was right.
"Why can't Gu's son Gu be scolded? Not only him, but Gu also scolded that evil bitch. Is she a bastard like you? Your father didn't pass the throne to you. Sure enough, it's because of you bastard who knows how to use She is also a bastard who can use demonic magic to confuse people's hearts. You two are really bitches and bastards... ugh..." Blood bleeds from the corner of King Nanyue's mouth, his eyes are still full of contempt, and the dagger in King You's hand is , stabbing him through the chest.
"A dog cannot spit out ivory from its mouth." King You kicked away the Nanyue County King who was bound by Wu Hua Da, with an angry expression.
He was originally a human-male hybrid, so naturally he couldn't bear to hear such words. As for Nie Qing's explanation of treating Nanyue County Prince like his biological father, he naturally threw it away. This was insulting to himself, how could he keep it.
Originally, he wanted to ask something from Prince Nanyue, such as who this eldest brother had colluded with, but when it came to this situation, he could no longer suppress his anger.
Facing the lifeless corpse, King You turned cold and snorted: "Take it out and feed it to the dogs."
The guards in black robes dragged the body of Prince Nanyue, leaving a long trail of blood.
After calming down his anger, he picked up the wine glass and saw a long trail of blood on the ground, which seemed to remind him of the contemptuous expression of Prince Nanyue.
The word bastard lingered in his ears. Thinking of the old emperor's disregard and the shame of being insulted by others, King You still felt uncomfortable and ordered the people around him: "Send the rebellious Nanyue County Prince and his family to the demon cave!"
"Brother, where are you..." He held the cup tightly and crushed it to pieces. All the brothers had been killed, and only the fast runner was left.
Not only was he thinking about his eldest brother, the people in Zhao State were also thinking about it, but in a different way.
"Mother Xuannv, please divine the direction of Nie Xu, the eldest prince of You Kingdom." King Zhao respectfully raised his hand and asked.
In front of him is a beauty with palace makeup, cloud sleeves and silk, colorful clouds and silver light, high bun with dragon beads and phoenix hairpins, black silk like silk, bright river and Han arc, a pair of star-like eyes and smiling eyes, soft and tender peach and plum spring breeze, dignified in etiquette. At the beginning, style preceded humanities, with a charming face, plain white veil, a fairy from the Golden Tower of the Heavenly Palace, and a concubine of Xiyue among the wonderful and kind people.
The beautiful fairy in front of her is none other than Xuannv, who is currently the national preceptor of the Zhao Kingdom, taking charge of the gods and ghosts of the Zhao Kingdom, and slaying the immortals and setting up changes.
I am also really optimistic about the state of Zhao. The position of national master is very important. One disadvantage is that he will die and his path will disappear. The typical example is Ge Laodao, who is imprisoned.
"I told your majesty not long ago that this person is going to escape, why do you ask me again today?" Through the veil, King Zhao could also notice Xuannv's unhappiness.
King Zhao smiled bitterly. This was indeed his fault. After all, it was quite difficult for Nie Xu to escape from the capital of Zhao with the help of gods and Buddhas all over the sky. The typical example was that Xuannv had warned him once a few months ago.
"Excuse me for my omission and missing the person. He should have kept in touch with us when he arrived in Youguo. After all, he had to borrow troops. Unexpectedly, he disappeared." King Zhao said awkwardly. As an important figure in the layout of the Three Kingdoms of Jizhou , he lost it so carelessly, and he felt ashamed.
"He is deceived by his dynasty luck, and I can't use heavenly means. Let's go back." Xuannv pinched her fingers and said.
Immortals cannot interfere with the operations of the human world. The third way is to assist the dragon as a human being. However, humans cannot be counted as people who are blinded by luck.
King Zhao looked ashamed. This matter was done so badly. He originally wanted to spread the news and confuse the two countries, Jing and Zheng, but he didn't expect that he was involved.
"Is there no way to remedy this?" King Zhao made a final effort.
"So, what is your strategic purpose?" Xuannv asked, pointing her pure white fingers in the air, where a map similar to a holographic projection showed the mountains and rivers.
"Because we cannot send troops to conquer Youguo, we will build a Youguo that is friendly to Zhao at a small cost. When facing Jingzheng and Jingzheng, we will not face enemies three times." King Zhao told Queen Mother Jiang again what he said to Xuannv .
"What is the minimum price in your opinion?" Xuannv looked at the entire Jizhou map and paused for a moment at Jiannan Road.
"Nie Xu, the eldest prince of You State, called for action, and all regions responded. A partial force from Zhao State, Cheng State, and Yu State sent troops to kill the current You King, support Nie Xu to ascend the throne, and repel Cheng State and Yu State." King Zhao said with calculation. .
"Can this Nie Xu still be trusted now? Are you supporting him?" Xuan Nu asked back, her bright starry eyes a little more questioning.
"It can't be trusted anymore." King Zhao replied that no matter from which aspect, Nie Xu, the prince of You who escaped from Zhao and returned to You Kingdom and lost contact, can no longer be trusted.
"Then you came to me to ask me about his position. Do you have the idea of supporting him, or do you have the idea of killing someone to vent your anger?" Xuan Nu asked again, with insight into human feelings, she smiled lightly, but her expression became serious.
"I..." King Zhao couldn't answer and seemed a little embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, national affairs are important, and the monarch is capable. The Lord must not be angry and raise an army. The gods and ghosts are so powerful that sacrifices must not be trusted exclusively. This is the king's way." Xuannv is not only responsible for the affairs of ghosts and gods. He is also an advisor on state affairs.
What this means is, don’t let your emotions get involved in state affairs, and don’t think about ghosts and gods all day long. Managing your own country well and enhancing national strength are the basic principles of kingship.
King Zhao bowed deeply and covered his face with his sleeves. Xuan Nu's words were very rude, almost pointing at his spine and scolding him.
"I repent, I have troubled Empress Xuannv, I will resign." King Zhao admitted his mistake and said, shameless.
"Wait a minute, how does Your Majesty plan to resolve the matter in Youguo?" Xuannv stopped King Zhao, as the matter has not yet been resolved.
"There is no point to focus on. It is better to follow what the Queen Mother said and govern by doing nothing. After all, our country's main focus should be on the two countries of Jing and Zheng." King Zhao was quite unwilling and had no choice.
"I just watched the clan members of You Kingdom being slaughtered, and a country ruled by a big demon emerged. I didn't know it before, but now I am sure that You Kingdom has the will to fight for the world. I won't completely destroy them now." Xuannv reminded that this The country has demons and immortals to back it up, how could it be possible that they just want to rule You Country?
"I will consider it. Thank you, Empress Xuannv, for reminding me. I'll take my leave." He was respectful and finally withdrew.
Xuannv wanted to say something, but she sighed and stopped. With Zhao's national strength, it wouldn't be a big deal if it was so powerful that it would fly away. She felt vaguely uneasy if the situation was allowed to continue like this.
Looking at the map, the Dahe Cairn is the northern chasm of You Kingdom. Most of Cheng Kingdom's navy is in the hands of King Qinghe, but whether it is Li Pingyuan or King Qinghe, both sides are interested in breaking You Kingdom's legs.
To the east is the State of Yu. Zhuang Xun was encouraged by himself to mobilize his troops and horses, preparing to enter the territory of You State. The east border of You State was mountainous, so the effect was not great.
As for the entire Yu Kingdom, they are busy fighting for the throne and may not be in the mood to get involved in You Kingdom's affairs.
Looking at Zhao State again, at most it can only send out a partial army to march, and heavy troops must be used to defend Jing Zheng.
Chengguo should be the main force. If Chengguo acts as the main force and annexes Youguo, this is unacceptable. Now is the best opportunity. If Youguo is in civil strife and the clan is in trouble, if you miss it, there may not be such an opportunity again. It is terrifying and high-pressure. The rule of the people may not only arouse people's resistance, but also may make people lose their will to resist.
According to Xuannv's idea, the best strategy is to support the clans who are friendly to the Zhao Kingdom to seize the country and drive away the Cheng Kingdom. The three kingdoms will continue to fight. As for the disobedient eldest prince, send him to death.
The central strategy is to support the Cheng Kingdom and the Yu Kingdom to fight against the You Kingdom. However, now that Li Pingyuan of the Cheng Kingdom has been the only one to support it, it will not be good to become the new You Kingdom. As for the Yu Kingdom, it is not yet clear who will be in power in the future.
The next best thing to do is to let You State quell the civil strife and only provide basic support to consume You State's national power. Although You State is always hostile to Zhao State after the rebellion, Zhao State is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It does not take the initiative to attack. With the advantages of the three passes, it can hold on , Zhao State occupies a favorable position and has people and people blessed by the gods.
It's impossible for King Zhao to choose the wrong strategy, this is a good opportunity.
