When Chu Xingchen received the news and saw the tragic situation of the massacred townspeople described in the battle report, his eyes were splitting.
"How dare they, how dare they!"
"Your Majesty, my father will definitely avenge them and defend the northern border."
Lingzhou was also filled with anger. At this moment, he wished he could mount his horse and fight directly to the northern border, but it was impossible.
Because he still has a mission.
"I believe in the King of Zhenbei, but Beidi's 100,000-strong army is not that easy to deal with."
The Beijiang Zhenbei Army has about 100,000 troops stationed daily, and can be supported by other local armies during wartime.
But this time it was different, because the army of Wu and Qi were pressing on the border, but the garrisons in both places were relatively weak, so there was no way to mobilize 30,000 reinforcements from each.
Although the heavy cavalry that originally restrained Beidi has grown in strength, Beidi's side has also been upgraded, and they also have heavy cavalry of their own.
If you are shameless, just copy Dachu's.
During the battle, he even deliberately shouted to the King of Zhenbei, saying that if he didn't go back to help resist Qi and Wu, Chu would be gone.
They did this deliberately to make the soldiers of Dachu fearful and confused.
If after a battle, the first battle is defeated, then no matter what prestige the King of Zhenbei has in the army, morale will inevitably be affected.
Originally it was 100,000 versus 70,000, so there was no numerical advantage, not to mention there were worries about the future.
This battle...even if King Zhenbei personally leads the troops, is extremely dangerous.
Chu Xingchen took a deep breath and made a decision. It was time for everyone to realize that they, Chu, were not to be bullied.
"Tianliu, I have a major matter related to the future of Dachu to leave to you."
Since Qi State, Wu State and Beidi State can all cooperate, the news of Beidi's attack will naturally spread the fastest.
When Qi State and Wu State, who were acting secretly, heard the news, they seemed to have heard a signal.
They gave up their covert actions and went directly to the surface. They were going to attack Da Chu.
In order to make this expedition happen for a reason, they also released false news, saying that the Queen of Chu had obtained the imperial seal and was preparing to attack them.
Dachu had torn up the original treaty of peaceful coexistence, and they were preparing to fight back in order to protect themselves.
Qi State and Wu State released similar news one after another. The people of the two countries were not fools. When they heard it, they knew that they were greedy for the national jade seal, and the alliance was going to attack Chu.
If the people don't want to fight, the people will suffer when there is prosperity; when there is death, the people will suffer, and they are the ones who suffer.
But no one paid attention to their opinions. Wu State and Qi State had already made a decision and announced at the same time that they would ban trade with Dachu and no more business would be allowed in the future.
Dachu people, especially the stores opened under Xiao Wang's name, the most popular cold drink glass shops, etc., were all closed.
He simply hadn't completely broken his skin and was afraid, so he didn't kill the Chu people for a while. Sooner or later, the Chu people got the news and fled back home overnight.
But if people can escape, whether it is goods or money, they will basically be looted.
It was clear that they were the ones begging Da Chu people for business before, but now they have changed their attitude and become an open robber.
Those who did not leave in time were driven away mercilessly and treated very badly.
It was the Dachu officials stationed there, similar to the modern embassy, who stepped forward and exerted pressure to successfully take the person away without any loss of life.
Wu and Qi made their choice, and Dachu unfortunately made the same choice.
But unlike the roughness of Qi and Wu, Da Chu's approach was much gentler.
There were many people from the state of Qi and the state of Wu in Dachu. It looked like a fight was going to start, so everyone was panicked, especially the businessmen.
The states of Qi and Wu are allied to attack Chu. They are afraid that Chu will vent its anger and look for them to attack.
Everyone is ready to spend money to eliminate disasters, even if they want to use money to buy back a life.
Unexpectedly, Da Chu never thought of touching their people or money.
"As long as you have a guide, are really here to trade in Dachu, are not spies, and will not interfere in the war, then there is no need to worry."
"Although you may be questioned and interrogated in Dachu, other than that, no one from Qi or Wu will do anything."
The people of Qi and Wu all suspected that it was a dream, but the person who came forward explained it.
"What happened to us Chu people in Qi and Wu made us very angry, but we also know that it has nothing to do with you or ordinary people."
"You are not the culprits. It would be shameful for us to anger you. If we want to settle accounts, we will go directly to the culprits."
These words made everyone feel complicated.
And Da Chu didn't just talk, Da Chu's attitude towards them was still the same, polite.
"Your things are still yours, whether it's money or property rights. You can choose for yourself. You can choose to go back to your homeland directly, or stay in Dachu."
"We will not stop you from leaving, and we will definitely not touch your things."
"If you stay in Dachu, we won't be in trouble."
"Even if you are from Wu State and Qi State, as long as you are in Dachu, Dachu's laws will protect your rights and interests, and no one has the right to appropriate your things or violate your human rights."
Da Chu's actions completely moved the people of Qi and Wu.
It's obviously not my hometown, but at this moment, I feel more safe in Dachu than in my hometown.
With this attitude, except for a small number of people who chose to leave, most of them tried to stay.
They were afraid of encountering a fight on the road, which would be too dangerous.
Whether those who leave or those who stay, they will be treated the same as mentioned.
The State of Qi and the State of Wu slandered Da Chu and did things that harmed the rights and interests of the people of Da Chu. It was impossible for Da Chu not to fight back.
After learning the news, Da Chu News immediately published the news that it was Qi State and Wu State who broke the contract and started the war.
He also condemned what they did to the Dachu people and ordered them to make corrections and return them.
At the same time, he explained Da Chu's approach and called on Qi and Wu not to blame the conflicts between countries on the people.
Once the Dachu News was published, both those who stayed and those who left Qi and Wu felt ashamed.
The contrast between the methods of Dachu and Qi and Wu was so obvious that they felt ashamed even after they had escaped unscathed.
Although this group of Wu people and Qi people have not yet returned to their respective countries, the news of Dachu News spread, and there was a lot of discussion.
Many outstanding people from Qi and Wu made condemnations and protests, saying that Qi and Wu's methods of doing things were too shameful.
In the Kingdom of Wu, the queen who was holding her belly was very angry when she heard the protest.
"Why should Dachu be allowed to influence the public opinion of our Qi country?"
"Da Chu Bao must be stopped!"
Qi State, Queen Luo Waner and Emperor Qi Ming said, "All newspapers in Da Chu must be sealed, especially Da Chu Newspaper!"
"We must not create extraneous problems at this time!"
She had waited for so long and finally wanted to take revenge. She couldn't wait for Da Chu to be destroyed and Chu Xingchen knelt in front of her.
"Where has the army gone? When will the Chu Kingdom be destroyed? One month or two months?"
"It's not that easy. Don't worry." Qi Ming had no choice but to coax Luo Wan'er.
"Don't worry, as long as you attack Da Chu, I will definitely let you kill Chu Xingchen with your own hands to take revenge."
Only then was Luo Waner satisfied, "Then it's settled, I will definitely cut him into pieces."
Qi Ming nodded and suddenly asked Luo Waner, "Wan'er, have you asked someone to write a letter to contact Shen Cangzhu before?"
Is Wan'er still unable to forget Shen Cangzhu?
He is a man who doesn't want to be a cuckold, regardless of physical or mental betrayal. Qi Ming's eyes suddenly became sharp.
