Su Yan shrugged undeniably. He did not intend to convince Li Yueze at the beginning because his experience during this period was too outrageous, and even he felt like he was in a dream.
The two of them no longer worry about this issue. For Su Yan, Li Yueze is almost numb. Although the rocket-like cultivation speed is sensational, Li Yueze has seen it too many times. It seems that Su Yan is born to create miracles. .
"Tell me about the situation here, why did Korqin start attacking," Su Yan asked.
"You have just walked less than three days ago when news of the full-scale attack of the Korqin army came from the front line. The march was very fast and it crossed the border in one day. As for the purpose, we don't know," Li Yueze explained.
“How many people do they have,”
"More than 200,000, but there are as many as 100,000 cavalry alone," Li Yueze replied. Generally speaking, cavalry, as rare troops, do not account for a large proportion of the army. It is estimated that besides the horse-stop ethnic group, the Korqin, is the Mazing nation. No other dynasty can find an army with such a large proportion of cavalry.
"If I remember correctly, there are only 100,000 defenders here. How dare you attack?" Su Yan asked strangely.
"At first, but later the court heard the news that the troops had increased, and a hundred thousand troops rushed over, and the people you started bringing in were more than two hundred thousand,"
"So that's the case, but you are quite powerful. In a positional battle with Korqin, you can actually achieve so many victories in such a short time, making the opponent retreat step by step," Su Yan exclaimed.
"Forget it, how can I compare with you?" Li Yueze shrugged. He didn't dare to compare these with Su Yan, a war monster: "By the way, the court has appointed you as the general of the garrison and the general of the garrison. Qingzhou responded to military affairs and fought against the Ministry of Science and Technology,"
"I," Su Yan was surprised: "It shouldn't be General Wu Meng's?"
"General Wu was ordered to be transferred ten days ago. It happened that you were here, and the court handed over this task to you. I saw that you were not here and I definitely couldn't wait. So I took over the command without authorization, but fortunately the reinforcements were aided. They are all your old subordinates in Liaozhou, with the assistance of Su Yang, Su Fei and others, otherwise I wouldn't be able to command them. Now that you are here, I'll leave this exhausting life to you,"
"Thank you, thank you for your hard work these days," Su Yan thanked sincerely.
"Yeah, when have you become so polite?" Li Yueze joked, and then led Su Yan to the side: "I won't talk about this anymore, I'll take you to see the terrain."
Korqin came in full force this time. Although it was not as good as sending 800,000 troops like the Kongsang Dynasty in Liaozhou, Korqin came this time with elite troops, especially the 100,000 cavalrymen, with amazing combat power and almost invincible on the plains. It’s also a pity that these elite veterans from Liaozhou, otherwise they might not be able to stop them if they were replaced by other troops.
However, although the Korqin army has extraordinary combat power, its fatal shortcomings cannot be changed and its mind is simple.
Korqin may have some famous generals who are well versed in military tactics, but most of them are still famous for their combat power. They cannot compete with some famous generals from the other two dynasties in the use of military tactics. Otherwise, with the amazing combat power of the Korqin army, if they are added If a general is a genius, he will probably have unified the world long ago, so he will not be able to reach this point now.
Therefore, with Su Yan and Li Yueze joining forces, they gained a great advantage in just a few days. Although there were occasional defeats, the overall direction was still developing in a good direction.
However, at this moment, a fast horse from Jian'an City suddenly came to Su Yan's military camp.
"What did you say?" Su Yanteng stood up from his seat with his hands on the table, his eyes full of disbelief, and his expression was extremely shocked.
Hearing the sound, Li Yueze also came to the tent. When he saw Su Yan's expression, he was also stunned, because he had never seen Su Yan lose his composure like he was so disobedient at this time. He has always been a calm and calm person, and it seems that nothing can make people lose their composure, but now, Su Yan has lost his composure.
"It's true..." Su Yan knew this person. He was one of Su Yan's guards and an old subordinate of Su Yan. He was truly trustworthy in the Su family.
"What's wrong," Li Yueze couldn't help asking.
Su Yan's expression continued to change. In a moment, his eyes seemed to have changed thousands of times. After a long time, he sighed quietly: "The Emperor... has passed away."
"What," Li Yueze's eyes almost collapsed from his eye sockets, and his expression changed even more violently than Su Yan: "How is that possible?"
Su Yan waved his hand weakly. After a long time, he barely suppressed the fluctuations in his heart and asked the guard: "When will it happen?"
"Early yesterday morning, as soon as something happened, the master ordered me to come soon," replied the guard.
"What did the master say,"
"He asked me to tell the young master to stay in Qingzhou honestly and not care about anything in Jian'an City. After things stabilize, then make plans."
Su Yan nodded. This was the safest way, because he almost didn't know what was going on now. He would probably cause him a lot of trouble when he went back rashly.
"How did the emperor die?" Su Yan suddenly asked after a long silence.
The guard was stunned and faced Su Yan's gaze. He naturally knew that this sentence had a profound meaning. After thinking for a long time, he replied: "The master said, it is confusing. Although the emperor is old, his body is still strong. No one has ever thought of a disease. It will take his life directly.”
"It seems that there is a lot of articles in it," Li Yueze also spoke, and looked at Su Yan.
"If I think it's not bad, Jian'an City has become a mess now..." Su Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked towards Jian'an City.
Because the incident had just happened when the guard came, and he didn't know very much. After asking a little about it, Su Yan asked him to leave.
In the following time, people kept coming to the Qingzhou military camp. These people were all their own forces cultivated by Su Yan over the years. They were deliberately staying in Jian'an. Once there was any situation, they would report it to Su Yan immediately.
Just as Su Yan thought, Jian'an City is now in chaos.
According to the information sent by Su Yan's people and the news that Li Yueze inquired, after the emperor's death, a suicide note was leaked, announcing the third prince Nangong Qi to be the crown prince.
However, as everyone expected, no one admitted it. Not to mention anything else, this suicide note is indeed full of doubts, especially the death of the late emperor, which is simply too bizarre.
The current situation in Jian'an can be described as an imminent phenomenon, with undercurrents surging, and even each of them clearly shows the carriages and horses. If the emperor's corpse is cold and he dare not be too presumptuous, he may have already begun a war.
The former emperor left behind nine princes. Now it seems that there are four qualified to compete for the throne, namely the eldest prince, the third prince, the fifth prince and the sixth prince. The eldest prince and the third prince are the most powerful. Not to mention the power, the government and the country are almost the same.
In the court now, ministers and generals have begun to take sides, tearing each other apart, and the situation is chaotic. Fortunately, the old prime minister Dongfang Shuo struggled to maintain it, so the situation has been avoided from becoming uncontrollable.
Surprisingly, among the most powerful people in the court, there were many people who remained safe and did not make any statement. Among them were Duke Qiao and Su Yu, the president of the Military Academy.
Su Yan also knew this, especially after receiving Su Yu's instructions, he was no longer in a hurry and stayed in Qingzhou honestly. Anyway, he is now the garrison general, so he stayed here, anyone I can't say anything.
But the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind does not stop.
On this day, Su Yan welcomed a guest. Coincidentally, Su Yan also knew this person, Yu Ling, the guard commander of the third prince of the Guyu Dynasty.
"Kang'an is thousands of miles away, and it's hard for Commander Yu to come all the way," Su Yan led Yu Ling to the tent, and gave someone tea and said with a smile.
"General Su is polite. It is hard for the general to fight for the country abroad," Yu Ling said politely.
"I dare to ask what the commander Yu came," Su Yan asked. In fact, he knew about Yu Ling's purpose, but he definitely couldn't show it.
"I guess General Su already knew about the matter of the previous emperor," Yu Ling's expression became dark and sighed with regret.
"Oh, I really can't believe that the old emperor had the kindness of knowing me back then, and it's like yesterday when I think of it." Su Yan sighed sincerely. This was not a false statement, but Su Yan's sincere thoughts. He could feel that The emperor attaches great importance to him and truly loves talents can be said to be a wise ruler of a generation.
"Oh, I think of what a heroic figure in the late emperor, but now..." As he said that, Yu Ling actually squeezed out a tear, and the rapid change in his emotions made Su Yan amazed.
"General Yu probably didn't come to cry to me on purpose," Su Yan gently picked up a cup of tea and said with a smile.
"Of course," Yu Ling smiled slightly, his eyes becoming solemn: "The general must be very clear that his family must not be without a boss for a day, especially in our huge dynasty, where a wise monarch must ascend the throne to stabilize the present This situation of external troubles and internal troubles,"
"What Commander Yu said is very much," Su Yan sneered in his heart. Sure enough, but he echoed.
"The general is also a wise man, so I'll just say it clearly. Before his death, the late emperor left a decree and named His Highness the Third Prince the new emperor. However, there were rebellious parties who refused to obey him and slandered His Highness arbitrarily, especially some princes and The minister actually questioned the authenticity of the decree and protested against His Highness's ascension to the throne. Therefore, His Highness wanted to get the help of the general, and the general was the person valued by the late emperor. He would definitely not refuse the favor of the emperor," he said. Listening no longer talks nonsense, she directly explained the carriage and horses and explained the purpose of the trip.
"Of course, but you also know that I came to Qingzhou to guard the orders of the previous emperor. Now there is a 300,000 Korqin army eyeing me, so I naturally cannot leave my post without permission."
