"The time is not yet ripe? Then tell me, when will the time be ripe? Do we have to wait until Juyong Pass is breached before the time is ripe?" Zhao Xiaole asked coldly.
The King of Minnan had no choice but to evade: "Master Marquis, you must know that this barbarian has not used Pixiu yet. If he uses Pixiu, I'm afraid Juyongguan will not be saved."
"In my opinion, the barbarians are just testing the city today. Tomorrow morning, they will definitely try to attack the city again."
"By then, the barbarians must be more confident and will definitely break through Juyong Pass. From the current point of view, it is only a matter of time before Juyong Pass is broken."
"Master Marquis, I think you should go back as soon as possible and evacuate the people in Xunyang as soon as possible. By then, the losses will be less."
"Furthermore, in my opinion, once the barbarians sack Xunyang, it will be a matter of time before they retreat. Please relax, Lord Marquis!"
The King of Minnan expressed his opinion.
In fact, everyone knew very well that instead of plundering Xunyang, the barbarians could only invade the territory of the Minnan King and plunder the Minnan King.
His fear of Pixiu is one reason, and his unwillingness to let his wealth be lost is the most important reason.
Everyone said nothing and looked straight at Zhao Xiaole.
Zhao Xiaole sighed and asked: "King Minnan, do you know the current situation in Jingyang? What if the barbarians do not retreat and continue to penetrate deep into the hinterland of Jingyang?"
"Can Chuzhou still be able to hold on?"
"What should we do with the East Vietnamese people in the north?"
"If the country dies, even if you are the king of Fan, can you still live a good life in Fan land safely in the future?"
How come the King of Minnan doesn’t understand this truth?
But he was still lucky, thinking that after the barbarians defeated Xunyang, they would naturally retreat, so he said:
"The Marquis is overly worried. I have been with the barbarians for a long time and I know their nature very well. I can use my head on my neck to guarantee to the Marquis that the barbarians will definitely retreat. Otherwise, I will come to see you with my head..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Xiaole slapped him!
Snap!
Hearing a crisp sound, the Minnan King was so dizzy that he whirled in a circle with a low cry, and then fell to the ground.
This scene stunned everyone around them.
I heard that the Marquis of Zhenguo was very powerful, but I didn’t expect him to be so powerful!
This is the King of Minnan, one of the three great kings of Jingyang.
He who rides on a horse will smoke whenever he says it?
However, everyone reacted quickly. The generals on the city shouted, "Stop, protect the prince!"
At the same time, the surrounding soldiers had already pointed their spears at Zhao Xiaole.
The soldiers around Zhao Xiaole immediately drew out their long swords and confronted the other party.
However, Zhao Xiaole only brought thirty soldiers with him into the city.
Now, there are only a dozen or so people around me.
Therefore, they are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.
But I don’t know why?
Zhao Xiaole's behavior just now was like giving them a shot of chicken blood. At this moment, everyone was ready to fight one against a hundred, fearless of death.
Even if the opponent's force is ten times greater than our own, we are not afraid.
In fact, this is what is called a raging soldier, a raging general, and the spirit of the leader of an army will become the soul of the army.
The two sides fell into a tense situation.
Zhao Xiaole turned a deaf ear, stepped forward with his hands behind his back, and looked at the King of Southern Fujian coldly, "You, the King of Fan, only want to preserve your own interests, but ignore the safety of the country. Do you really think that I dare not kill you?"
Zhao Xiaole was too close to the King of Minnan, and the general wanted to shout loudly, telling the soldiers to take action, but he was stopped by the Taifu on the side.
According to rumors, Zhao Xiaole has good martial arts skills.
If you rush forward now, you will inevitably injure the Minnan King.
Therefore, out of fear of throwing a rat weapon, the Tutor did not dare to let the soldiers take action.
But Zhao Xiaole continued to curse, "I have killed so many people, I'm sorry you can't kill even a fan king!"
"How dare you push me in front of me? I'll let you push me!"
Saying that, Zhao Xiaole kicked him directly!
Hearing only the sound of Wai You, the King of Minnan screamed in pain.
Zhao Xiaole scolded and beat him severely, which made the Minnan King extremely painful. The surrounding officials had already seen that he was furious.
As the saying goes, if the master humiliates the minister, he will die!
When your immediate boss is humiliated like this, you are actually humiliating everyone below and laughing at your incompetence in front of your face.
Wouldn't everyone be angry?
Everyone's eyes widened with anger, wishing they could skin Zhao Xiaole alive.
"Zhao Xiaole, stop it!"
"Damn eunuch, you dare to be so arrogant even when you are here on horseback, you will cost me my life!"
"..."
Everyone was furious and wanted to fight Zhao Xiaole with their lives.
Seeing this, the Taifu stopped everyone again and said: "Stop, everyone stop!"
Seeing that no one could stop him, he had no choice but to order the general to order the surrounding soldiers to block the officer who was charging towards Zhao Xiaole.
As a result, the officials were stopped.
It did not lead to further escalation of the situation.
The Minnan King on the ground had already been bruised and swollen by Zhao Xiaole.
It was better for him to hold back, otherwise, the Minnan King's body and bones would not be able to withstand his kick.
He died of anger long ago.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Zhao Xiaole also stopped and glanced at everyone coldly. At this time, the master hurriedly knelt down to Zhao Xiaole and said,
"Master Marquis, even if there are any mistakes, they are all the fault of the lower officials. Please let the prince go and don't blame him."
Zhao Xiaole sneered, "Now I want you to send troops to cut off the barbarians' retreat. Are you willing?"
"This, this, this matter needs to be ordered by the prince. If the prince continues to fight, if there is something wrong with the prince, southern Fujian will be in chaos immediately, and no one can help the prince in the war!"
The master knelt on the ground and said.
And this also happens to talk about Zhao Xiaole's soft spot.
No matter how angry he is, the King of Minnan will definitely not die. If he really kills the King of Minnan in anger.
It is also difficult to build a force in a short period of time to continue to control the territory of the Minnan King. Otherwise, it will be a great help to the barbarians.
Zhao Xiaole lowered his head and asked: "King of Southern Fujian, are you willing to send troops?"
The King of Minnan dared to shake his head, so he could only nod his head and said: "Master Hou, you have misunderstood me. I am devoted to the court. As long as the Marquis gives the order, I will send troops immediately. I still need to say one more thing from the Marquis."
?”
Zhao Xiaole nodded, "Okay, if that's the case, then send me troops now to cut off the barbarians' retreat!"
"I will make sure that the barbarians will never come back and they will all be buried in Jingyang!"
Under Zhao Xiaole's burning eyes, the King of Minnan asked again: "But, Lord Marquis, what should we do if the barbarians attack the king's hinterland?"
Seeing that Zhao Xiaole's gaze was about to devour anyone, the King of Southern Fujian quickly changed his words and said: "I know, I will send an order right now!"
"Listen to my king's orders..."
Before he finished speaking, the Minnan King suddenly rolled his eyes and fainted.
The Taifu and others were shocked and rushed to the rescue, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you okay?"
"..."
Zhao Xiaole: "..."
What a fool, this old fox is pretending to be dead!
