Chapter 843

(The map of the changes in the territory of the princes in Jiuzhou has been released. If you are interested, go and take a look! Remember to like it!!)

On the first day of April of the 13th year of the Marquis of Wei, Wei Wuji and his army of 150,000 were officially set off to the south after holding a oath-taking meeting in Wu'an.

This is an unprecedented oath-taking meeting. Unlike the past, he always used to honor the king. This time, Wei Wuji went up to Luo with a guilty attitude, which showed a major adjustment to the major policies of the Wei State.

Therefore, the military and civilians of Wei also had high hopes for the king's expedition. They hoped that the king would return to Wu'an with great victory as he led his troops every time in the past.

Wei Wuji led his army south and joined forces to Luo, and after joining forces, the Wei army reached a terrifying 300,000 troops, while the coalition of princes was only 250,000 troops within the royal capital.

Xiong Jun, who was in Yingdu, was also extremely anxious about this issue.

It is difficult for all countries to be united, and now they have no advantage in military strength, so it is almost impossible to win.

"Wei Wuji, Wei Wuji, you don't want to give me time!" Xiong Jun sighed.

Although Wei will leave a few years to rest after every big move, this time is not enough for Chu.

Unlike the State of Wei, Chu Jun Xiong Jun did not have so thorough control over the country. Although all forces in the State of Chu are now gathered under his banner, there are frequent internal struggles.

Under such circumstances, even if Xiong Jun formulates a careful and meticulous plan, it is difficult to implement it at the grassroots level.

In fact, the Chu State that Xiong Jun took over was no different from Tian Yuwen's takeover of Qi State, and the national tribes in China were astonishingly powerful.

In contrast, the Chu State, the most powerful alliance of the princes, is even less capable than the Wu State and Qin State.

On the one hand, Qin and Wu have stronger external pressures, which must unite all parties at home.

On the other hand, it is precisely because these two countries have suffered sharp wars that the domestic aristocratic forces have been hit, which has relatively strengthened the monarchy.

"Is the Wu army here?" Xiong Jun turned around and asked the general behind him.

The general replied: "Report to the Lord, the reinforcements of Wu must have already set out, but they also sent people to urge us to return their land as soon as possible!"

Xiong Jun couldn't help but sneer. Sun Yueyang used troops to threaten him at this time, which was considered a mistake.

If the Wei army attacks, the threat to Wu will be greater than that of Chu, and Sun Yueyang is not qualified to negotiate terms with him unless he is willing to be ravaged by Wei again.

After revealing this topic, Xiong Junze said: "Now, within the royal capital, there are 100,000 troops from our Chu State, 50,000 troops from Qin State, and the people of Wu State will also send about 50,000 troops..."

"Even so, our troops are still insufficient!" Xiong Jun sighed.

The general on the side was particularly puzzled, and then he reminded: "Your Majesty, haven't the people of Qi sent 50,000 troops, and our troops are not inferior to those of Wei!"

Xiong Jun couldn't help but glance at the general and said, "Qi State has been harassed by the Wei army in recent years. What can the army he sent is use?"

"If Tian Yuwen Zhen sent out his war-capable troops, then he wouldn't want to save the remaining territory of Qi?"

Xiong Jun's view is sharp. Although Qi State also sent troops, in his opinion, it was just a total of people, which was very useful.

The situation was so unfavorable, and the general next to him said, "Mr., since that's the case, why not send more troops to the royal capital so that the coalition will have a chance of victory!"

Xiong Jun thought so too. After he repeatedly considered it, he made a decision and said, "There is only the only way to do it now!"

Previously, Xiong Xian led his army to fight north. Although Qi supported him, he also consumed the money and food accumulated by Chu for many years.

Now Chu will launch a larger war, and the consumption of money and food is even greater, which is simply burning the national strength of Chu.

But this is inevitable. Even a few months ago, Xiong Jun, who had a clear judgment on the situation, was mentally prepared to start a war.

"This time, I personally led 100,000 troops north!" Xiong Jun said word by word.

This 100,000 army is the last force that Chu State can use, and Xiong Jun will no longer retain it.

Because Xiong Jun knew clearly that this battle could only be won but not defeated. If the Chu State was defeated, it would also embark on the fate of Qi, Qin and other countries and be dealt with by Wei State one by one.

In fact, it was not only Xiong Jun who realized this, but now he has won the title of the king of Qin, but also personally led 50,000 elite troops to Wangji.

It seemed as if it had been agreed in advance, the leader of the army stationed in Wu State was also Sun Yueyang who succeeded to the throne.

Among the four powerful countries at that time, Tian Yuwen was unable to lead tens of millions of troops because Qi was attacked by Wei in an irregular manner. He just sent him a 50,000 new army.

There has never been such a dense crowd in the Zhou royal family. The 350,000 troops of the southern princes were displayed, and the 300,000 troops of the Wei Kingdom in the north were pressing...

What's even more powerful is that four people rushed to Shangluo, the monarchs of the five powerful countries.

On the way to Luo, the emperor Ji Xiao stood on the corner of the palace wall, looking at the north in a daze.

If it was his father's era that Zhou Shi was completely majestic, then in his succession, Zhou Shi was on the verge of destruction.

At this time, a minister came to Ji Xiao with a loss and said in a depressed manner: "Your Majesty, I am back!"

Ji Xiao didn't even turn around, knowing that things must have been done, but he still didn't let go of the last glimmer of hope.

So he asked, "What's wrong?"

The minister knelt down and apologized: "I am incompetent. I have lobbyed the coalition forces of all countries, and they are unwilling to send troops to Shangluo!"

Ji Xiao was not surprised too much about this result, and he only heard him murmuring: "At the beginning, these people kept thinking about Shang Luo showing off their martial power, but now they can't even invite them!"

Wei Wuji came to Shangluo to blame him, causing the entire Shangluo to be shrouded in fear. This was a great rebellion that no one dared to say clearly.

Under the threat of the Wei army, most of the people in Shangluo City, who were not many, escaped from the city to seek refuge with their relatives.

There were also a large number of wealthy and wealthy families who fled with their families, which made Shangluo much less empty than before.

In fact, at the beginning, Ji Xiao tried his best to prevent the people from escaping, but when all the soldiers under his command began to flee, he gave up this meaningless action.

Fortunately, Ji Xiao himself devoted his careless efforts to his new army, and the soldiers were brainwashed and trained since childhood, so there were nearly 3,000 soldiers who could fight in Shangluo City.

But with these three thousand people, it is impossible to defend Shang Luo. Ji Xiao is already fantasizing about his final outcome at this time.

"Chen Qing, do you think... my brother-in-law will kill me?" Ji Xiao said slowly.

This is a taboo, but the answer is very simple.

Then he saw the minister kneeling on the ground tremblingly, "Your Majesty is resistant to the son of heaven, no one dares to harm him, otherwise he will be punished by God!"

Ji Xiao shook his head and said, "Chen Qing, everyone else abandons me, why don't you leave?"

Ji Xiao was completely disappointed at this time, so he saw through everything, so he was not panicked at all at this time.

The minister surnamed Chen stood up and replied, "Since I am a minister, I should keep my duty as a minister. How dare I betray Your Majesty!"

"What's more, Your Majesty has the kindness of knowing me, otherwise he would have the status of me today!"

Speaking of this, the minister surnamed Chen went up to two steps: "Your Majesty, although there are rebel ministers who betray you, there are a large number of loyal people in the court, and I am willing to follow Your Majesty with his life!"

Ji Xiao couldn't help but be stunned, and then he didn't say much, but said, "Since that's the case, if I die in the future, my wife and children will be left to you to take care of!"

The minister surnamed Chen kowtowed without saying a word, and tears flowed on his cheeks. The emperor was asking him to be the one who was alone!

Ji Xiao also had tears falling, and he turned around and helped the trusted minister up and said, "Chen Qing, I'll ask you in the future!"
