Chapter 1227 The War Begins

In the following days, the Far North enjoyed a peaceful life because the weather suddenly dropped and the maintenance of the defensive city walls and the roads leading to the capital was stopped.

In addition to daily military training, the soldiers began digging pits at the base.

The pharmaceutical factory and the glass factory are still working night shifts. The pharmaceutical factory mainly produces medicines for colds, and the glass factory is still working day and night to produce various types of mirrors.

The busiest one is Xu Zhe. He doesn't even have time to work on the boss's RV. He works day and night to finish the car.

Han Muchen occasionally visits the pit greenhouse, but pays more attention to the vegetables.

We have been busy and orderly for nearly two months, and the Chinese New Year is just around the corner.

Whether it is the people of Qingzhou Prefecture or the people of Happy Home, they are all happily preparing to celebrate the New Year.

Even Aunt Liu has been busy preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner these days. Just when everyone thought they would have a happy New Year this year, an urgent report from the border broke the peace.

When Qin Chuchu carried her son to the study, she saw that everyone in the room had a gloomy face and no one was speaking.

"What's going on?"

When she came to the man, she saw the letter on the table at a glance and put her son directly on the table.

The little one can now sit up, and once placed on the table, he crosses his legs.

Maybe because she grew too fast, the clothes were a little small, revealing her round belly a little.

She rubbed her belly with her chubby little hands, tilted her head and looked at the man in front of her, drooling.

How could the man, who originally had a gloomy face, withstand his son's attack?

He stretched out his long arms, hugged his son in his arms, and kissed him on the forehead.

"Hehe." The little guy tilted his neck and grinned at his father, his goal achieved.

But Qin Chuchu on the side had a frown on her face.

"So what is the court's plan?"

She looked at the man and shook the letter in her hand. She never expected that the New Year was just around the corner and a war had broken out on the Dongping border.

Within a few days, they captured three cities in succession, lost 50,000 of their 100,000 soldiers, and even killed the commander defending the city. The enemy was too fierce.

The man who was looking at his son tenderly sighed after hearing Chuchu's words.

"I think the Emperor should be mobilizing troops now."

Even I have received the news, so my father should have received it earlier than me.

If I'm not mistaken, they should be urgently mobilizing troops now, but I don't know who to send to lead them.

After all, he was familiar with the generals in the court.

Several old generals, represented by General Cheng, still have heroic spirit, but they are indeed too old and not suitable to lead troops into battle.

There are also a few second and third-rank soldiers who are not brave enough in combat and are not courageous enough. I am really afraid that I won’t be able to handle them.

The fact was exactly as he thought. Although the sun was high in the sky, the court was still in power.

The emperor is discussing this matter with a group of ministers. They have been discussing it since yesterday, but there is still no result today.

General Cheng and his men have been asking to fight, but they are too old after all.

The other young generals lack experience, and asking them to take on the responsibility alone to fight against the battle-hardened Tuoba Yu would be tantamount to giving themselves up to death.

Several young generals also thought that their abilities were limited, so they did not dare to make suggestions in front of the emperor.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the court was extremely depressing, and only Han Mulei was secretly delighted in his heart.

It won't be long before Tuoba Yu will capture two more cities.

My father will definitely ask for peace. Even if he doesn't cede the city, he will offer compensation in cash.

By then, I will have to share my share. As long as I have strong financial resources, I will be able to compete with Han Muchen.

Although it was a pity to lose some cities, they were not his own now. Moreover, they could still help him, so the loss was worth it.

Just when I was feeling proud, the voice of General Cheng came.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan."

"General Cheng, please speak." The emperor's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic.

I've been so worried that I couldn't sleep these past two days, and finally someone talked to me.

"Then Tuoba Yu was defeated by King Chen. How about the emperor give King Chen a letter of divorce and invite King Chen to come?"

Although they did not want to involve King Chen, there was really no one available in the court right now.

Moreover, Prince Chen beat Tuoba Yu so badly back then, and now he still has to rely on him.

As soon as he said this, almost everyone's eyes lit up. Although they didn't say anything, their expressions showed agreement.

In fact, many people have already thought of it in their minds, but they didn’t say it out loud because they were afraid that King Chen would not accept the challenge.

Secondly, I felt a little embarrassed inside.

When King Chen was framed, they didn't say a single good word for him. Now that he's in need, they can't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

What's more, the people of Chuxiong are more powerful, and it is also very important to have King Chen guarding there.

“………………” The emperor pursed his lips.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard the voice of Tutor Sun's disapproval.

"No!" Everyone looked over.

Tutor Sun met everyone's gazes with a calm expression. He stepped forward, stood in front of the emperor, and bowed.

"Your Majesty, although the Far North is peaceful now, the people of Chuxiong are still ambitious. If King Chen leads his troops to attack Dongping,

The Far North will be leaderless. If the Chuxiong army takes advantage of the situation and invades, our Far North border will be in jeopardy. Therefore, I believe that King Chen should not leave the Far North."

Taifu Sun said this with a serious face. Although he knew the ability of King Chen, if he led the troops to fight, the chances of victory would be very high.

But the Far North has no leader. If the Chuxiong people take advantage of it, the Far North will suffer a great loss.

“………………”The emperor said nothing.

He was completely depressed again. How could he not know what Grand Tutor Sun said? It was also what he was worried about.

Even the people in the court were speechless and fell silent again.

On the other side, Han Muchen had already reached a conclusion after the discussion, which was that he was ready to fight.

After everything was arranged, he turned and looked at Qin Chuchu.

"Let's go!"

"Yeah." Qin Chuchu nodded.

With a wave of his hand, several people entered the space. When they appeared again, they were at the border of Dongping Kingdom.

Because time is urgent, a delay of one moment may mean the loss of countless lives.

So a few people planned to arrive early. Since the 100,000 soldiers could not be carried by space, Feng Yi could only follow behind.

Looking at the city gate that was so close, Han Muchen rode his horses with Feng Liu and Feng Qi, while Qin Chuchu followed secretly in the space.

After all, she is a woman, and it is not appropriate for her to appear in such occasions.

From a distance, they saw several people riding horses towards them, and the soldiers guarding the city shouted loudly.

"Who?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the soldiers on the city wall drew their bows and arrows, ready to shoot at any time.

We have just experienced a brutal battle, how come there is a counterattack so soon?

Just as the soldiers were staring at the people below with vigilance, a voice that made them excited came from below.

"The King of Morning is here, open the city gate quickly!"

Feng Qi shouted at the top of his lungs while holding his master's token high up.
