Chapter 1134: Loss of One Hundred Thousand Troops
g, as long as the sky didn't fall, he would find a way to come back in person.Yet so many days have passed, and not only has Mo Yunjing failed to return, but he hasn't even sent a letter.Recalling her...Tianba Kingdom Capital City
On this day, the Beijiang Wangfu was as usual, with nothing out of the ordinary happening.
In recent days, An Xuetang has noticed that Mo Yunjing is going out earlier and returning later each day. It seems the situation in Chi Guo is becoming increasingly serious.
This fight is probably going to happen.
After giving Feng Ming a massage, An Xuetang washed her hands and slowly walked to the side table and sat down.
Ning'er immediately took out the meal she had prepared and placed it on the table. An Xuetang's appetite was getting better every day, and she now ate several meals a day. However, almost everything she ate was consumed by the two children in her stomach. No matter how much she ate, her figure didn't change much.
An Xuetang picked up her chopsticks and took two bites before looking at Shou'er beside her, "Has she shown any abnormalities today"
This "she" didn't need An Xuetang to say it explicitly, Shou'er and the others naturally knew she was referring to Fu'er.
Since her return, Fu'er has been confined to a remote courtyard. Because she still has many unanswered questions and explanations to give, she is currently under close watch.
Only every day would An Xue Tang ask about Fu'er's situation. Regarding Fu'er saying that the child in her womb was Feng Ming's, An Xue Tang didn't believe it. But now, besides waiting for Feng Ming to wake up to confirm, she had no way to do a paternity test on the fetus in Fu'er's womb.
So for now, there's only one word: "Wait".
At this, Shou'er let out a slight sigh, "Your Highness, Fu'er is still the same as before, behaving herself quietly. There's nothing unusual about her actions. She eats and drinks as she should, doing nothing out of the ordinary."
"Keep a close eye on her, make sure you're meticulous. Don't give her a chance to contact anyone else."
Shou'er nodded slightly, "Yes, Shou'er understands."
An Xuetang continued to eat a little, and after a while, Ning'er also came back. As soon as she entered the door, everyone saw the smile that she couldn't hide at all.
An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, put down her chopsticks and looked at Ning'er, "What have you found out You seem so excited."
Ninger let out a giggle, "Your Highness, there's some wonderful news. Zhao Si's life is miserable now. Ever since the Fourteenth disguised himself as Zhao Li, he poisoned her. So Zhao Si is in constant agony. She begs the Fourteenth to give her an antidote every day, but not only does he refuse, he also embarrasses her repeatedly."
An Xuetang curled her lips, "This news is indeed worth celebrating."
"Ning'er smiled again, 'If I weren't afraid of causing trouble for the Fourteenth Brother, Ning'er would have gone to praise him personally.'"
Shou'er and Ning'er, upon hearing this, also smiled at each other.
......
Mo Yunjing returned home late again this day. After washing up, he went back to his room.
I thought An Xue Tang had already fallen asleep, but as soon as I walked in, I saw her staring straight at me.
Mo Yunjing let out a light chuckle, "Why aren't you asleep yet"
An Xue Tang sat up and slowly walked to Mo Yun Jing's side, "Is there still anything to do tonight"
Upon hearing this, she finally took action to remove the coat from his body. "You've been coming home late and leaving early lately. What's going on with Chi State Is war about to break out"
Mo Yunjing didn't want to worry her about these things, but she had already asked. If he didn't explain, it would only make her uneasy.
"The Chi soldiers tried to attack Yulan City several times, but the General Zhenxi guarding Yulan City was almost incompetent in battle. He suffered repeated defeats. The 200,000 garrison under his command has now dwindled to less than 100,000. If the Chi country continues to pursue its victory, Yulan City will surely fall."
"One hundred thousand soldiers All... all dead!"
Mo Yunjing nodded slightly, his deep eyes betraying nothing of his true feelings. "The Red Nation marched into battle three times within six days, and in just six days, Youlan City lost 100,000 soldiers."
"!"
An Xuetang's pupils contracted. No wonder Mo Yunjing had always been going out early and returning late these past few days. The war had already begun, and 100,000 soldiers had died!
One hundred thousand soldiers!!!
So many people died in such a short time. If this continues, I'm afraid the 100,000 soldiers remaining in Youlan City and the citizens of Youlan City...
An Xue Tang clenched her fists, unable to bear thinking any further. This world...surely life was so cheap.
Only the news of the war in Youlan City, why haven't any people who searched for Tanggu returned with any information
Based on the timeline, the explosives she had arranged to be transported to the border of Youlan City should have arrived by now, right
Why hasn't she received any messages
And she had already instructed those who sought Tanggu to use explosives at their discretion if a major situation arose, without waiting for Mo Yunjing and the others to arrive. Why didn't they
She didn't believe the people of Xuntang Valley would stand idly by and watch the 100,000 soldiers of Youlan City die.
So... what actually happened
At this moment, she didn't know what she was thinking. An Xuetang suddenly reached out and grabbed Mo Yunjing's hands, pursed her lips, and then said cautiously:
"Ajing, the lives of one hundred thousand soldiers were lost because of that incompetent General Zhenxi. Don't even think about it, anyone in your position would be overwhelmed by such a loss within just a few days. So you... mustn't blame yourself."
Mo Yunjing appears cold-blooded on the surface, but those who truly know him understand that he cares deeply for every soldier's life and every citizen's life. He originally intended to lead the troops himself to fight against the Red Army, but the cowardly emperor refused to follow Mo Yunjing's advice and obstructed him at every turn, which is why Mo Yunjing hasn't gone to Youlan City yet.
Now, only six days have passed, and the 200,000 defenders of Youlan City are down to 100,000. Although Mo Yunjing doesn't seem to be emotionally affected, he must be feeling very guilty inside. He must be thinking that if he had arrived at Youlan City sooner, he would have prevented the loss of those 100,000 soldiers.
Mo Yunjing raised his lips, and reached out to touch her head, "Don't overthink it."
After a moment of silence, An Xue Tang furrowed her brows and couldn't help but say, "Given the current situation, what does the so-called emperor have to say Is he willing to listen to you and hand over the military power held by the General Zhenxi as you wish"
Mo Yunjing had delayed his departure to Youlan City because he knew that going there unarmed would be pointless. He lacked soldiers, and none would obey his command.
The 200,000 garrison troops in Youlan City only recognized the General of Zhenxi. Without the emperor's imperial decree and the military talisman in the General of Zhenxi's hands, those soldiers would not have obeyed Mo Yunjing's orders.
So these days, Mo Yunjing has been waiting for the emperor's imperial decree. Now that Yulan City has lost 100,000 troops, if the dog emperor still can't wake up, he truly deserves to die.
Mò Yún Jǐng narrowed his eyes slightly, "His imperial edict will arrive in the next two days. Once Yúlán City is captured, the target of the Red Nation will be Qīngyù City. Qīngyù City has less than 100,000 troops. At this rate of the Red Nation, the city will be lost soon. Once Qīngyù City falls, the Red Nation will launch a full-scale attack on the capital. He will not allow this to happen, so his imperial edict will arrive in the next two days."
An Xuetang nodded slightly, but once the dog emperor's imperial decree was issued, it meant that her Mo Yunjing would soon leave the capital and head for Youlan City. went to great lengths to infiltrate the palace, and over these days, she has sent out quite a few messages, especially one that nearly got Mo Jun Yi killed. She can't possibly forget this.Out of grat...
