Chapter 2469: Shocking Changes in the Holy City
Zhong Houde smiled slightly: "Thank you two generals. Now that this is over, please convey your Majesty's greetings to the Princess."
"Okay, I got it. We have to prepare for war, so I won't leave you alone." The fat woman waved her hand.
Zhong Houde nodded: "As expected, you are like a mother, okay, I will say goodbye."
The thin woman smiled and said: "Prime Minister, you are not a bad person. Next time you come to Luxi, I will treat you to a roasted whole beef."
Zhong Houde smiled and left.
The fat woman frowned: "Sister, look at these people, they are all full of conspiracies and plots, and they are not open-minded at all. If you ask me, if you have anything to do, it will be over in just one fight, how can you put so much effort into it!"
The thin woman twisted her waist and smiled: "Sister, this is why my mother can't get ahead. I think it's the same for both of us. No matter how hard we fight, it doesn't matter. There are so many twists and turns in this world."
The Luxi Hanbao Army was highly likely to be the enemy in Jiang Fan's expectation, but since he knew that Emperor Ping was one of his own, they have become a huge help, adding many chances of victory, which is also an unexpected surprise.
The Jin State and the Hanbao Army were just the representatives. This day seemed peaceful, but under the calm sea, who knows how many things happened.
September 23rd was spent in suffocating depression.
On September 24th, a big news came out early in the morning. Sima Linfeng, the king of southern Jin Dynasty, was ordered by the prime minister to raise troops to serve the king.
This immediately confused many people. King of Jinnan…Sima Linfeng?
How did he show up? And he also publicly rushed to support Jiang Fan? Don’t you know that Jiang Fan is a rebel? Or is it that Sima Linfeng is far away and the news was not received in time?
The outside world was surprised, and so was Gongsun Xing. At this moment, he was appearing in Sima Ji's tent.
"What's going on?"
Sima Ji shook his head: "Mr. Gongsun, you should know that Sima Linfeng, the southern part of Shanxi, essentially has nothing to do with me."
Gongsun Xing was slightly stunned. He had cooperated with Sima Ji for a long time, and he knew a little bit about the past events in southern Shanxi. Although not much, he also understood that if Sima Linfeng came to power, there would be no way for Sima Ji to win.
"But this is very inappropriate. Outsiders don't know the relationship between Sima Jinnan and the king. Brother Sima should find a way to deal with it."
"What to do? They are raising troops now. They won't be able to get here for half a month. It's just a momentum. There is no time to care about them at this time."
Gongsun Xing frowned, he also understood that this was the case, but Jinnan's actions, in the eyes of the outside world, were equivalent to the attitude of the Jin State, which invisibly reduced the effect of the King of England's announcement of Jiang Fan's identity. Because after all, Sima Ji is also the leader of the Five Nations Alliance. Now that the situation is basically clear, shouldn't he side with the Holy Land at this moment? Why do you mean to support Zhenguo Yinxiang? Things are a little confusing again.
"It doesn't matter," Gongsun Xing said: "As long as the King of Jin understands the general outline, it will be fine when the time comes to send troops. Don't hesitate, otherwise the elders will die..."
Sima Ji solemnly said: "I understand."
While he was talking, there was a sudden commotion outside. Sima Ji frowned and called the guards. After asking, he learned that there was further news about the Qin-Xia war.
Except for Mucheng, Muzhou was almost completely lost. Gaoqi besieged Mucheng, but he divided his troops to attack other cities, trying to lure Zhou Anshi out of the city for a decisive battle. However, Zhou Anshi remained unmoved, resulting in the capture of twenty-two cities in Muzhou by Gaoqi. Sixteen seats.
Gongsun Xing frowned: "Qin's behavior is becoming more and more weird. They are only attacking Muzhou. Is it possible that they are using this opportunity to raise troops just to capture Xia State, not to become the Qin King of Guanri Peak as the slogan said?"
Sima Ji thought deeply: "It's very possible. After all, even if the British king wins, with the Western Qin army as his backing, I'm afraid no one will dare to do anything to the regent Jiang Fan. As for the imperial court, Ying Wushuang does have a reason not to care."
Gongsun Xing was a little worried: "It's just that it disrupted the plans of the four elders."
Sima Ji seemed to be indifferent: "Sooner or later, we will take this step, but it's just a little early. I think the four elders also understand that things will always change. And now, the Western Qin army is far away from here, even if it has wings , and it’s impossible to arrive tomorrow. You and I still have to focus on this place. As for Xi Qin, I think the four elders must have arrangements. "
Gongsun Xing nodded slowly: "It makes sense. Oh, by the way, the Holy City Army has completed its assembly today and is just waiting for an order. I wonder how Brother Sima is doing here?"
Sima Ji said: "Brother, don't worry, eight thousand elite soldiers of the Jin Kingdom have arrived and are on standby at any time."
"Okay!" Gongsun Xing was overjoyed: "This time, we can defeat the thieves and his son in one fell swoop! When the King of England takes over, Brother Sima, the leader of the Five Nations, will no longer have any constraints. Congratulations."
Sima Ji was humble but also full of joy: "Brother Gongsun, isn't it the same? By then Jiang Fan will lose his position as the hermit minister of the country, and brother can enter the palace. Once the official is worshiped as the hermit minister of the country, he will be at the level of the five elders, and famous people will surely become The best in the world!"
Gongsun Xing could barely conceal his pride, pointed at him, and laughed heartily.
But their laughter was quickly shattered by a bolt from the blue——
An urgent battle report came from Pegasus in Daicheng. An army of 50,000 secretly attacked the Holy City and besieged it. Daicheng, with only a few thousand defenders left, was caught off guard. It only lasted for an hour before it was occupied by the Feng family's army. .
The Feng family's banner was actually to support the prince and the hidden minister of the country, and to raise troops to serve the king.
Since the Holy City Army was the opposite of the prince, the Feng family chose to capture Dai City nearby and surround Wei and rescue Zhao.
This thunder struck everyone in a state of confusion and confusion.
The Feng family of the Dark Dynasty actually ignored the rules of the Holy Land and blatantly broke the rule that the Dark Dynasty could not raise troops and captured the Holy City?
What was even more shocking was yet to come. Feng Chen also issued a manifesto immediately after occupying Daicheng, claiming that he had received a secret letter from the Emperor of Man, that the Crown Prince was the legitimate heir, and that the King of England was a traitor.
This time, not to mention how shocking the Dark Dynasty's raising troops was, it became difficult to distinguish the truth from the false on the part of the Imperial Court.
The King of England had a secret decree, and the Dark Dynasty also had a secret letter. What was going on?
Gongsun Xing felt dizzy. The Holy City Army's lair had been dug out? How dare they be so bold? Regardless of what Feng Chen was thinking, this was a huge blow to the Holy City Army. The army's morale was immediately in chaos, and countless people demanded to return.
Before he could react, someone informed him that he should try his best to appease the Holy City Army. Yousi and Canxin Zunlao had already personally rushed to the Holy City to meet Feng Chen.
Gongsun Xing had to settle down temporarily. He also understood that although the two places were not far apart, if he returned to attack the city now, he would have to fight a siege. How could he catch up with the final battle tomorrow? Gongsun Xing, helpless, had to pin his hopes on the two elders, hoping that they would find out the truth as soon as possible, expel the Feng family, and stabilize the morale of the Holy City Army, which was in turmoil at the moment.
