"Gaoling."

"Shangqiu."

"south wind."

"Shunhailing."

…

Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty Zhu Wen read the memorials one by one, reciting the names of places one by one, and his face became more and more gloomy!

These places have suffered varying degrees of invasion and damage.

Some defenders were killed, some people were robbed, and even a grain transport team was attacked!

This is simply outrageous!

Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and threw out more than ten memorials.

"Who can tell me what is going on?"

"Why did the Zhenbei Army appear in the hinterland of Daliang?"

"How can there be such a large number?"

Zhu Wen lost his composure and asked almost like a roar.

It's not that he can't keep his temper, but no one else would be able to accept something like this happening suddenly.

From the known intelligence, it can be concluded that the size of this infiltrated enemy force is huge. From the changes in its scope of activities, it is obvious that their target is Bianjing!

Yes, the capital of Daliang is about to be attacked!

There were only a handful of incidents in the history of the Liang Kingdom in which enemy troops penetrated deep into the hinterland and wreaked havoc. After Zhu Wen came to the throne, such a thing never happened.

Not to mention reaching the hinterland, even crossing the border is not possible.

But now it's happened.

No one could answer him. The civil and military ministers were still immersed in shock and had a strong sense of unreality...

"Your Majesty, are these reports false? We are at war with Dakang, and millions of troops are pressing down on our territory. How can the enemy invade our territory?"

A courtier stood up.

"Yes, Your Majesty, maybe the local officials are exaggerating. How is this possible?"

Someone else stood up and echoed.

"With so many discounts, are they all fake?"

Zhu Wen suppressed his anger and tried to calm himself down.

"Is there any news of the war coming back from the front?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have not received it yet."

Geng Ying, the Minister of War, stood up and said: "What is certain is that it is absolutely impossible for this enemy force to enter from our border."

Everyone nodded.

It is impossible to break through the defensive line formed by nearly one million troops.

Moreover, they are the attacking party, so it is expected that the enemy's defense will be difficult now.

"So, this enemy force can only go through another route."

Zhu Wen's face turned gloomy again, and even the hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists.

Prime Minister Pang Shigu took a long breath.

"If this is the case, it is basically certain that this enemy army entered our country from Wei."

"In this war, we moved our border troops to the front line, and some defensive open spaces appeared. This can also explain why we didn't notice anything before..."

"Ji Feng!"

Zhu Wen spit out two words from between his teeth.

Apart from that, there was no other explanation, he thought of it immediately.

Pang Shigu added: "And the Wei State should still fully cooperate, otherwise it is impossible for us not to know some news!"

"Didn't we sign an agreement with the Wei State and cede Jinshui County to the Wei State in exchange for it not sending troops to us when we attack Dakang?"

Geng Ying, the Minister of War, said in surprise: "Wei Jun should abide by the agreement. After all, it is better to get Wei Jun's promise than to get a thousand pieces of gold."

This is a saying that is widely circulated in mainland China and has become a proverb.

It means that Wei Jun values ​​​​their integrity the most and will not break it as long as he makes a promise.

"And wouldn't Wei be happy to see our two countries fighting?"

"But it's obvious that Wei Jun broke his promise."

Pang Shigu said: "Without the cooperation of Wei State, the Zhenbei Army would never have come."

"Wei Jun did not break his promise."

Zhu Wen said in a low voice: "He indeed did not send troops to attack us."

"But this behavior is treachery!"

"mean!"

"I didn't expect Wei Jun to be such a villain!"

"Shameless!"

"Why do I need Wei Junyi's promise? Damn!"

"We should immediately send a mission to question him!"

All the courtiers were filled with indignation and cursed angrily.

"It's useless to talk about this now."

Pang Shigu saw His Majesty's increasingly ugly expression and quickly stopped him.

Talk about betrayal.

Wei Jun is simply not worthy enough in front of His Majesty.

If you really think about it, Liang Guo actually tricked Wei Guo several times.

"I hunt geese all day long and get pecked by geese."

Zhu Wen gritted his teeth and said: "Ji Feng, you old fox, I will remember it!"

This time he was too passive.

He was so angry that his body and mind trembled.

It was originally a good situation, but suddenly it became like this.

"Your Majesty, how should this be solved?"

Pang Shigu said: "The enemy's infiltration force is quite large, and most of our troops are deployed on the front line. Even the capital guards are empty. Is it difficult to contain them for a while?"

"If it is allowed to continue to be destroyed like this, then..."

Zhu Wen's face became even gloomier.

This was the most embarrassing part. When he knew that the enemy troops were going deep, he thought of this level.

He understood that this must be Emperor Yuanwu's plan.

"Wait a little longer."

Zhu Wen gritted his teeth and said: "Dakang has sent so many troops, so there must be a shortage of frontline defense forces. And with our millions of troops, we will definitely win quickly... stabilize first."

He knew very well that if he panicked at this time, he would be fooled by the enemy, and in the end nothing would be done...

Geng Ying, Secretary of the Ministry of War, said: "We still have nearly 300,000 troops at the border. Can we mobilize them for rescue?"

"Do you dare to move?"

Pang Shigu continued: "The purpose of reserving these 300,000 troops is to intimidate the Wei State. If we mobilize them now, there is no guarantee that the Wei State will not take any action. After all, the Wei State has colluded with Dakang, and besides, they are all infantry.

, I’m afraid it will be too late by the time it comes.”

Everyone was silent.

This is indeed the truth.

If Wei participated in the war on a large scale, there would be even greater trouble.

Who can guarantee that Wei will do that?

Now it seems that we are really in a dead situation!

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"
