In the ninth year of Wude, the so-called " Controlling a Million " Southeastern Army sent more than 200,000 troops to invade the south, intending to take over the Central Plains.
Most of the people stationed along the line were people who deposed Prince Li Jiancheng. They were dissatisfied with the new Emperor Li Shimin, so the South-South army was able to drive straight in.
The northern and southern territories were nearly a thousand miles deep, separated by the Yellow Plateau. The southern and southern territories had arrived at Jingyang City overnight, only a few dozen miles away from Wu 'an!
Great Jin was shocked!
...
The Mohist Village was located in the southern suburbs of Jingyang City. It was a well-known " poor " village. There had always been only married girls, but few girls were willing to marry into it.
" Qiu 'er, have you decided?" In a dilapidated thatched cottage, Shan Yingying looked at the handsome young man in front of her.
"Yes, how can we allow the iron hooves of the alien races to run amok on the land of our Jin family?”
Luo Qiu nodded firmly and even played with the Dragon Gentian Silver weapon in her hand. She smiled and said," Mother, please rest assured. Your child is very capable! The person who wanted to kill his son was still a thousand years too early!”
Shan Yingying was amused and rolled her eyes. You are just like your father, always wanting to make your mother worry. But..."
How could the faint disappointment and regret in her eyes be hidden from Luo Qiu?
He sighed in his heart. Just as he was about to comfort her, a voice came from outside the door." Giant, it's time to go.”
"Alright, alright, stop being pretentious here! Hurry up and leave, Mother is waiting for you here!”
Shan Yingying smiled as she pushed Luo Qiu out of the room. After calming herself down for a while, she took out a jade pendant from her bosom and looked at it carefully. There were tears flowing in her eyes…
There were already many people waiting outside. Most of them were old, weak, sick, and disabled. Their clothes were in tatters. All of them were looking at Luo Qiu with eager eyes.
The Mohist Village, the last pure land of Mohism, had already declined to such a state!
As a giant of the Mo Family, he shouldered a heavy responsibility. Not to mention promoting the Mo Family, but to prevent the Mo Family Village from becoming an extinct village. He could not retreat from this battle!
"Qiu, we'll go with you this time.”A white-haired old man stood out. His name was Mo Hua, the village chief of the Mo Family Village.
"That's right! When it comes to killing enemies, I was an expert back then!”A strong Jin Zi who had lost an arm also shouted.
"Tsk, then I'm still a member of the Black Armored Army! If it wasn't for the fact that I lost my leg..."
"I'm from the Divine Arms Battalion!"
"Come on, what a coward who can blow up his left eye!”
"I'm from the Cooks 'Army, and the current Emperor has even drunk my chicken soup!”
They were once the elite soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty. After pacifying the world, they were more or less disabled. They simply chose to live in seclusion and returned to the Mo Family Village.
At this moment, all of them were bickering, making Luo Qiu's head hurt. Mo Hua glared at them before he stopped.
Luo Qiu was about to refuse, but the old village chief seemed to have sensed it. He waved his hand and said," Little Qiu, don't worry! Our Mo Family Village still has some foundation. Moreover, in terms of defending the city…"
At this moment, his turbid old eyes shone brightly, and his slightly hunched body straightened up.
"A Mo practitioner can defend a city by himself!"
"That's right! Mo practitioners were born to defend the city. If they don't die on the city walls, what's the point of living?”
"I'm willing to die with you!"
"Bah! Bah! Can you speak?"
...
Wu 'an, Divine Dragon Palace.
His Majesty Zhang Er used this place as a study room and urgently summoned Zhangsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, and other trusted ministers to discuss the strategy of retreating south-south.
"In your opinion, we can't defend Jingyang?”
"It's as difficult as ascending to the heavens!"
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the other strategists shook their heads. Even Li Jing, Li Ji, Qin Qiong, and the other veteran generals frowned.
Time was too short, and with the lack of troops, it was hard to say if they could protect Wu 'an.
Now, Yuchi Jingde had urgently gathered a team of elite soldiers to rush to Jingyang. They were estimated to arrive at noon tomorrow.
Emperor Zhang Er's clenched fist slowly loosened and he said in a deep voice,"Then, do you have a plan to retreat?”
Fang Xuanling said," The army from the south has come from afar. As time passes, there will definitely be problems with the supply of rations. If we defend Wu 'an and at the same time order the soldiers from all over the country to help the king…"
Emperor Zhang Er shook his head." Wu 'an cannot be surrounded!”
Now that the situation in the Great Jin was unstable, if Wu 'an was surrounded by Nannan, the soldiers and horses everywhere would inevitably have disloyalty. If Eighteen Paths rebelled against the king, Li Tang would lose the world!
Li Shi Min would become another Yang Kuang!
That was why he asked if Jingyang City could be defended. If they could pull the battle line to Jingyang, there would be a turning point in this crisis!
"Then what should we do now…" Fang Xuanling's pupils constricted as he sighed." We can only negotiate!”
"No, Your Majesty, I request to fight!”
Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and the other generals roared at the same time. The word "peace talks" deeply hurt their hearts. This meant that they had lost their country!
For Li Shi Min, this was also a great humiliation!
Emperor Zhang Er's eyes were red, and his expression was extremely ferocious. After a long time, he let out a long sigh, and his expression became somewhat lonely.
He was no longer the King of Qin who could do whatever he wanted. Now, he was the ruler of a country and had to think for the people of the world!!
