"how?"
Gu Dan noticed something was wrong with Gong Shangguo and asked first.
"The Nanman is calling again."
Gong Shangguo didn't talk nonsense and handed over a letter.
Just after the winter of Zongming's thirty-sixth year, Daqing sent troops to the border, ready to go!
Moreover, the payment of the new year's coins this year has been delayed again and again, and finally the fangs are exposed at this time.
"Daqing?"
After taking the letter, Gu Dan glanced at it a few times.
The news in the letter stated that Daqing had a new emperor three years ago. When the new emperor ascended the throne, how could he endure the humiliation?
Work hard, deliberately reform, and prepare to save face.
It was not until this year that the temples were finally reorganized and the border troops were deployed again, and frictions had even begun.
"The Mo family is preparing to intervene in the war?" Gu Dan also frowned.
Gong Shangguo looked like he was going directly to the battlefield, but what did the three thousand people of the Mo family mean in the military formation?
Three rangers may be able to defeat three soldiers, but three thousand rangers will have no choice but to run away when faced with three thousand soldiers!
Even martial arts masters are not stupid enough to charge into the military formation!
"Not really, I'm the only one planning to go over there and have a look."
Gong Shangguo shook his head and added: "Since Daqing dares to start a war again, this time he will definitely not give up so easily."
"If there is going to be a war, Wanshou Immortal Palace should stop first, right?" Gu Dan asked after putting away the letter.
Building the Wanshou Immortal Palace is definitely a waste of people and money. There are already complaints without a war. If you open a double thread, why not explode on the spot?
"That's why I came to you."
Gong Shangguo smiled bitterly, "Wanshou Immortal Palace... I'm afraid it won't stop."
Gu Dan's eyes widened unconsciously, "Don't stop?!"
"The last war with Daqing may have made people in the temple think that Daqing was just a wax statue with a silver gun. Yuzhou has General Zhang in charge, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and plenty of food and grass.
He wanted General Zhang to wipe out Da Qing's first wave of offensive and strangle it in the cradle, without affecting the emperor's sixtieth birthday! "
Gong Shangguo clenched his fists and said harshly: "In recent years, those officials have become more and more fat-headed and arrogant, and they even dare to be so perfunctory in the war. Before this, had Brother Gu heard any news about the war? If it weren’t for someone over there exchanging letters with me, I wouldn’t even know this happened!”
The big moon is huge, so there is nothing wrong with saying that the land is vast and has abundant resources.
But the vastness of the territory will inevitably lead to slow transmission of news. Even Yuzhou takes fifteen days to transmit back to the imperial capital, let alone the farthest Yuzhou, which will only be slower!
When the news reaches the imperial capital, there may have been a real fight there!
As the saying goes, if a general is not obeyed by military orders abroad, it is not only disobedience, but also helplessness!
If there is no news from the court, is it possible that the aliens will wantonly burn, kill and loot within the territory?
Since ancient times, the border has been far away from the emperor, and it even has considerable autonomy. This is not because all emperors are fools, but mostly because they have no choice but to do so.
Judging from the time left in the letter, it has been more than a month since Daqing provoked the border, but there has not been even a hint of news in the temple. Obviously, it is not that the news has not been received, but it has been suppressed by force.
Everything must make way for Emperor Zong Ming's sixtieth birthday, and cannot take away from the joy.
"In that case, what's the use of the past? Can we still supervise General Zhang?"
Gu Dan shook his head slightly, not agreeing with his idea.
"I can't worry, I always feel that this time is very dangerous... Even ordinary people know that every time you take a step, you will gain wisdom. The emperor of Daqing is not a fool. How could he make mistakes one after another? The temple despises Daqing so much. Qing, it really makes it difficult for me to sleep and eat well."
Gong Shang held the silver spear with his hand, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "If the real thing cannot be done, I also know how to avoid its sharp edges. It's just that the Mo family has just recruited many disciples. If I leave at this time, Brother Mo alone may not be able to escape." .
Brother Gu has some free time here, so I would like to ask you to keep an eye on Brother Mo. I'm not here. Once this matter is confirmed, I'm afraid Brother Mo won't be able to bear it..."
He couldn't help it, he didn't say anything.
Obviously, Mo Qiu was not informed of the matter. Gu Dan was silent for a moment and asked: "Then how are you going to explain to Brother Mo?"
"Just say go home and visit your relatives."
After waving his hand, Gong Shangguo took the silver gun and walked out the door alone.
Watching him leave, Gu Dan couldn't help but sigh softly.
In this country, the emperor is arrogant, the officials are ruthless, and refugees are everywhere. In more than two hundred years, the original foundation has been completely consumed.
Even if a group of people emerge who are willing to sacrifice their lives and blood, how can we turn the tide?
If it is not destroyed or established, a dead tree cannot survive.
After calming down, Gu Dan picked up the inner breath technique sent by Xu Zhian.
No matter when, strength is the basis for survival.
The advancement of martial arts has reached the limit known to the world at that time. It is extremely difficult to make progress and it is not a temporary achievement.
The inner breath technique that brought him many surprises was naturally the best choice.
Failure once does not mean failure every time. How will you know if you don’t try?
After calmly studying all the books on the art of inner breath several times, Gu Dan started his experiment.
An hour later, as he became more and more proficient, he successfully condensed a brand-new inner energy. Before he could react, the inner energy exclusive to the Aoki Transformation Technique rushed forward immediately.
fail!
Two hours later...
fail!
Two and a half hours later...
fail!
Time after time, the books at hand become thinner and thinner.
When the moon reached its zenith and the afterglow filled the sky, only the last book of Inner Breathing Technique was left lying quietly beside him.
Looking at the book "Qing Ming Hong Hua Yin", Gu Dan murmured to himself: "Green trees bloom red flowers, it is reasonable, right? This time the problem should not be big!"
He specially placed this inner breath technique at the end, and its practice concepts are more or less intertwined with the "Aoki Transformation Technique".
And for the last time, Gu Dan was prepared to be bolder.
After transferring all the remaining inner Qi in the body that belonged to the Qingmu Transformation Technique to Cang, and helping the little guy to conceive and nurture his body, Gu Dan felt that there was no trace of inner Qi left in his body, and a smile appeared on Gu Dan's lips.
No matter how unhappy you are, why should you destroy the inner energy that I have worked so hard to refine?
Close your eyes, cross your legs, and unite your mind.
Another attempt begins!
Time passed slowly, and when a brand new inner energy with an obvious chill gathered in the body, the inner energy that should have rushed forward immediately and belonged to the Aoki Transformation Technique did not move.
Because Gu Dan has consumed them all in advance!
"It's done!"
Gu Dan's eyes showed joy, bold ideas have the advantage of being bold!
However, before his smile could fully bloom, his internal organs suddenly felt extremely cramped, as if a mad dragon was writhing in his body!
