King Xiangchuan of Chu was sitting at the top, listening to the quarrels below, his face expressionless.
Are you having a heart attack? But his father's death was too sudden, and many political legacies were not clearly explained, making it difficult for him to overwhelm the ministers with his strength.
However, now that the Chu State is in crisis, everyone is facing the national crisis together.
The officials below are quarreling, but it is basically certain that no one is making small moves in private, and there is no talk of vying for the vacant position of the military commander-General Qu Shang and Chen Shang are qualified to compete for the position of commander-in-chief. The generals are all sitting on one side now, unable to use their hands at all.
As for the other general, Shu Tong Pinghu, he was killed by the madman when Lu Wu entered the royal court. Among the martyrs at that time were the Grand Sima Wei Tu and eight other important military officials. It can be said that it directly led to the death of Chu **Fang Yuanqi was seriously injured.
The situation has changed. Half a year ago, I was still privately laughing at the unstable foundation of the Wu Kingdom. Even if I took the position of king, I would not be able to pose a threat to the Chu Kingdom. However, as long as the Chu Kingdom frees up its hands, it can launch the Wu Kingdom strategy. .
In the end, it was his turn to take the throne. Because of the legitimate relationship, the internal environment was ten times better than that of King Wu Ketu, but the external environment was a hundred times worse, with enemies on all sides. Calculating this, it was actually more difficult for his side.
Xiang Chuan was distracted for a moment, but when he came back to his senses, the ministers below were still arguing, and it was progressing to the point of personal attacks.
"My dear friends? My dear friends! My dear friends!
"Xiang Chuan said this three times before he stopped the quarrel among His Highness' ministers and attracted everyone's attention.
"My dear friends, the country is in crisis. Don't waste your energy on quarreling. We should focus on practical matters." Xiang Chuan said seriously.
"Here!" All the ministers bowed their heads and saluted in response.
After all, Xiang Chuan had been in charge of supervising the country for nearly ten years. Now that he has ascended to the position of king, he still has prestige.
"Zuo Sima, tell everyone what's going on!" Seeing everyone quiet down, Xiang Chuan ordered.
"I obey. General Yan from Chiyun Pass in Northern Xinjiang asked for help. He said that Qi State has been attacking the city in the past few days and many soldiers have been lost. Ten thousand elites are needed, including at least 2,000 cavalry, to prevent them from being cut off by Qi State elites passing through the mountain paths. The rear route, but the frontal defense line is narrow due to the narrow terrain, so there is not much need for ordinary soldiers, and there is not much need for food and grass."
"To the west, Chen Zhi, the general guarding Mangya Town, wrote a letter saying that his seven-city defense line requires 50,000 troops, including 3,000 elites, 200,000 arrows, 4,000 crossbows, 500 carpenters, and 5 masons. One hundred, and we must also reserve grain and grass for one hundred thousand horses in March, in case the Yan State sends light cavalry to harass the grain road behind them."
The swordsmen of Qi are the best in the world.
In the same small-scale infantry battle with light infantry, the swordsmen of Qi are almost invincible in the world. Only the soldiers of Lu can compete, and the soldiers of Chu are simply incomparable.
If we put ordinary soldiers on top, we are afraid that they will break through the defense line and attack the city in three to five times. Therefore, there are only elites at Chiyun Pass, and ordinary soldiers have to do menial work of carrying equipment.
As for the west, Chu State is adjacent to Yan State.
The country borders a flat plain, with only three in front and four in back. The seven cities rely on each other to form a defense line. General Chen Zhi leads an army of 100,000 to guard separately. They rely on the advantages of the cities to fight against the unparalleled cavalry of the Yan Kingdom. ….
[A book-chasing book recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, @
Ke Gan is explaining the etiquette of becoming an uncle to Lu Wu.
Three female officers stood aside, playing different roles and demonstrating etiquette details at any time.
"General, there is a martial arts performance in this uncle ceremony, please forgive me, General." Ke Gean said cautiously.
"Um?"
Lu Wu frowned on the recliner, and he was so frightened that he quickly explained: "This is definitely not to embarrass the general. Since the ancient Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, one can be granted the title of king for his humane virtues, one can be granted the title of marquis for his teachings, and one can be granted the title of marquis for his conquests. Bo - Therefore, to be crowned a king requires virtue, to be a prince requires merit, and to be a prince is to demonstrate force."
"Oh, I thought someone wanted to watch me play a monkey trick." Lu Wu said calmly.
"This is absolutely not the case! The general's reputation shocks the world. Who would dare to make fun of the general if he is impatient?" But he felt that cold sweat was breaking out on his forehead.
"You go on."
"After the martial arts performance, it will be Heaven's Question. During the Heaven's Question, the king will use the Kyushu Cauldron and ask the projection of the Haotian Mirror to come here to observe the general's life achievements and ask questions according to rituals."
"Huh? Please bring out the Haotian Mirror projection? What is the Haotian Mirror? What happens when the projection comes? Also, what does he want to ask?" Lu Wu's heart sank when he heard this, but his face looked like he didn't care. , asked casually.
The arrival of a projection is not an ordinary thing, and it is even more impossible for a magic weapon - only a magic weapon that is equivalent to the real person Yuanshen is qualified to say the word projection.
Back then, he transformed into the spirit of Dutian Ten Thousand Ghosts Flag and was almost tortured to death by a thunderstorm from the sky. Fortunately, someone took out the Yintianzi Talisman and asked Yintianzi's projection to come, which finally attracted the thunderstorm and gave him a chance to escape. road.
This happened a lifetime ago, but even thinking about it now, Lu Wu is still a little scared.
In this world where the vitality of heaven and earth is so thin, how can one offer a magic weapon?
Not to mention maintaining the function of projection descent - his Dutian Wangui Banner never had such ability during its heyday.
After listening to Lu Wu's casual question, he didn't even dare to slander the other party in his heart that he was illiterate. He just explained:
"The Haotian Mirror was built by Emperor Xuanyuan and Taoist priests from all over the world. It is the center of human destiny. It has always been enshrined on Kunlun Mountain and is also called the Kunlun Mirror."
"The Yangzhou tripod held by the king is one of the nine tripods. Through the luck of humanity, he can invite the projection of the Haotian Mirror to come and use the power of humanity to confer the title of uncle to the general. This is the Fengbo Zhengfa left by Emperor Xuanyuan. It is absolutely A title that is not awarded at will is comparable."
"As for the subsequent questions, it is not for the king to ask himself, but according to Feng Bo's rituals, he asked the questions with the power of humanity on behalf of Haotianjing."
"There are three questions: The first question is, can it be a conquest? The second question is, can it be responsible for defending the land? The third question, can it be a desire to protect the people?"
In fact, this kind of thing for Feng Bo is extremely rare. It can be seen that although I am a priest, I have never had the opportunity to participate in this kind of ritual before. Of course, I did it temporarily.
"This-" Lu Wu hesitated.
If it was an ordinary question, Lu Wu would naturally not care. He would just say a few words and go through the motions.
But if a magic weapon projection comes and asks questions while observing people's hearts, that is not a problem that lying can solve.
What Lu Wu is even more worried about is, what if this thing reveals his true identity?
It doesn't matter if the banner of ten thousand ghosts in the capital is illuminated. If the demons from outside the territory are illuminated, no matter how thin the vitality of the world is, it will condense into a thunder calamity. .
