Northwest Moon City, this is a city forgotten by God. War, hunger, and disease have never stopped.
The heavy rain that lasted for ten days continuously washed away the blood-stained city wall, revealing the mottled and dense knife marks and arrow holes inside. Xia Xiaoba, dressed in general uniform, walked down the city wall, with water dripping from his body, one watermark at a time, and the rain flowed smoothly. With the helmet flowing onto his face, Xia Xiaoba helplessly wiped his face, pointed at the cloudy sky above his head and wrote a capital day.
This damn weather, it rains for more than ten days, and they are still fighting!
Do you know about the war? This is a very serious matter and can lead to death.
Can't God give me a way to survive?
Fortunately, due to the heavy rain these days, the foreigners did not invade again. It was rare for the soldiers defending the city to have a few days of rest, but each of them did not dare to take a serious rest. Who knew what those shameless foreign cavalry would do? When to attack the city wall or harass the town of Liguan.
The foreign soldiers are as shameless as this thief.
"Vice General Xia, there is less than a month's worth of food in the military camp. What should we do?" An old soldier ran over and said hurriedly, his face full of sorrow and the vicissitudes of time.
"I understand. I have reported it to the general. The general is already thinking of a solution. You must not make any noise about this matter to avoid instability in the morale of the army." Although Xia Xiaoba was very upset, he still managed to comfort the visitor.
"Oh! What a sin! The food that was finally delivered was destroyed like this. How can people live like this? I thought I could give the soldiers something to eat, but it happened to be gone again." The soldier shook his head and walked away, with words. Full of helplessness and sorrow.
Xia Xiaoba's heart was dripping with blood. This year, everyone had tightened their belts to defend the city. Finally, the autumn harvest was achieved. The court collected taxes and grains and collected 100,000 stones to send them. But God was unfair. It rained heavily for ten consecutive days, and the roads collapsed. All the grain transport convoys were hit by mudslides, and almost ten percent of the grain was destroyed, making it impossible to pick it up.
In the past few days, the prince had been unable to eat well and sleep uneasily because of food matters. He was almost gray-haired with worry, but he did not dare to make a big statement, otherwise the morale of the army would be shaken.
Xia Xiaoba thought as he went to the coach's camp to report back.
The commander's tent is located in the middle of the military camp. It is no different from other tents except that it is larger. Even the door curtains are the same.
The heavy rain poured down, dripping on the tent roof with a clanking sound. The rainwater flowed along the curtain to the ground like a waterfall. Xia Xiaoba walked into the handsome tent with a damp body, and was froze by the cold and wet air inside. Shivering.
In front of the desk, Shi Tingyu and Xia Wu were discussing the military plan in a low voice. Xia Xiaoba didn't dare to speak loudly, so he had to stand aside and wait.
"Is there any news about Uncle Xia and San Xia?" Shi Tingyu's deep voice sounded.
"Yes, I just received news that they have successfully entered the sect of Ge Lie, the second prince of the Jin clan in the eighth chapter." Xia Wu replied, feeling worried in his heart. It took five months for his father to enter Ge Lie's sight. How long will it take? Only in this way can we complete the grand plan entrusted by the prince.
"Well, be careful in everything. It's better to wait three years than to rush." Shi Tingyu nodded and gave the instructions in a calm and unhurried manner.
Five months ago, Xia Zhongquan and Xia San were ordered to disguise themselves as well-known fur merchants. They traveled among the tribes and started a leather goods and military supplies business. In the era of chaos and war, the fur goods and military supplies they brought with them They received a warm welcome from the Nine Tribes and became the guests of the Nine Tribes' wealthy families.
By a specially arranged chance, he got acquainted with the slave of the second prince Ge Lie. Through many exchanges, he gained his trust and was introduced to serve under Ge Lie.
Gelie was the second son of Ashena, but his biological mother was a Han woman. Among Ashena's many sons, he was of Han descent and was not favored by Ashena. Therefore, he was ostracized and bullied by his brothers of the same race since he was a child. He grew up, but his biological mother who raised him was killed by Ashena.
The tragic death of his dependent mother was enough to drive Ge Lie crazy to the point of death. However, he chose to endure in front of his enemies and lived in poverty. His tolerance came from his hatred of Ashena.
This kind of person longs for power and revenge, so he will give him a ladder to climb up and a bloody blade to kill his king and his father.
For this step, he did not hesitate to use the informants who had been placed in the Jiuwai Clan for many years. Some of these people held high positions in various tribes, some were wealthy businessmen, and some were domestic slaves of wealthy nobles. It was the cooperation of these people that allowed Xia Zhongquan to succeed. His presence among the nine tribes was not suspected, and he came into Ge Lie's sight.
In the days to come, he will continue to create conditions for Xia Zhongquan to make Ge Lie believe in Xia Zhongquan's loyalty, regard him as a confidant, and follow Xia Zhongquan step by step on his carefully arranged path to regicide and seize power.
Ge Lie has been forbearing for many years just to wait for the opportunity. Once the time comes, Ge Lie will not hesitate to raise his troops to seize the power of the Huijin tribe, kill his brothers, proclaim himself king and cut off all follow-up support from Ashena. It’s hard to tell what the outcome will be for Ashena, who leads the troops to invade the border of Dayue.
In the past year, the war has been sluggish. Ashena surrounded us but did not fight. He led his troops to rob and capture small towns in border passes many times and killed countless people. He was really arrogant.
He wanted to put Ashena to death, but it was a pity that this man was so cunning that he did not dare to call for battle in front of him, let alone reveal his true colors in front of him; Shi Tingyu wanted him to follow the same path as his father, but it was a pity that he was Don't give him this chance.
Every time the formation was called, there were layers of guards guarding him, and he was completely intimidated.
Since you don't want to live in peace with Dayue and you don't want to withdraw your troops, there is no need to go back.
We will put on a good show for you to go straight to the bottom of the cauldron and drain the salary.
"Instruct Uncle Xia to act according to the opportunity." Shi Tingyu ordered again, marked with cinnabar on the Huijin tribe's map, and whispered: "Instruct Xia Er, let them fully cooperate with Uncle Xia, and put safety first in everything."
Shi Tingyu is not in a hurry. Whether it is Xia Zhongquan gaining Ge Lie's trust or secretly gathering troops to seize power, this is a long process and he can wait.
Ashena has been conceited and aggressive all his life. How would he feel if he died at the hands of the son he despised the most?
Shi Tingyu looked at the map in front of him with a calm and cruel expression. When Ashena died, it was the time for him to avenge the people who died in vain in the northwest.
"Pass the order and continue to move the people from the surrounding towns into Wangyue City. Ling Xia and his troops will pursue the Axie coalition forces, encircle them without killing them, and use chaos as the main force to cut off their connection with the royal court. In addition, Ling General Huang will return in person. Go to the Ministry of Household Affairs in Beijing to collect military rations..." Shi Tingyu'an arranged the plan in an orderly manner, and the series of orders made Xia Wu's eyes light up.
Is this long-running war finally coming to an end?
The Crown Prince is about to take action against Ashena. The powerful and cunning person like him died at the hands of the Crown Prince, and Ashena is just a grasshopper. How long can he survive?
The prince has been waiting and planning for so long. He not only wants Ashena's life, but also wants peace once and for all.
Poor Ashena was afraid of dying at the hands of the Crown Prince, but she wanted to lose her life at the hands of her own son.
There is no worst, only worse!
Xia Wu took the order and went out. Shi Tingyu turned his attention to Xia Xiaoba and said coldly: "I have an important task to give you. Are you up to it?" I want to chat with more like-minded people about "Jinxiu Liang" "Medical", follow "Youdu Literature" on WeChat, chat about life, and find close friends~
