The Shu Queen nodded again and said, "According to your uncle, the situation after this battle is still unclear?"
King Xiaoyao hummed and said, "That is indeed the case, but after this battle, I am afraid that Da Gan will be weak for a long time."
"Especially, news came back from the capital of Dagan that the Kingdom of Yue was acting like a demon this time and only provided Dagan with tens of thousands of dan of grain."
"This makes Dagan even worse."
The Empress of Shu also knew the news, and immediately asked, "Then according to the Emperor's uncle, when should we continue the negotiations with Zhao Hao?"
King Xiaoyao said: "I have to say, this young Wushuang Hou is really able to keep his composure."
"Yucheng first sold 200,000 dan of grain to Wu, and then sold 3,000 fine horses, but he remained indifferent."
"This mentality really doesn't seem like that of a young man who is not even 20 years old."
The Empress of Shu nodded and said, "He is indeed a great talent. And from what he has done since coming to Shu, it can be seen that he is mature beyond his age."
"If he is trained well, he might become the second Xie Daoxun."
"It's a pity that such a good young talent is not from our Shu Kingdom."
King Xiaoyao smiled and said, "If Your Majesty is willing, it may not be impossible to make him a member of my Shu Kingdom."
"This little fellow is very smart. Your Majesty should treat him with sincerity, even if you cannot completely turn him into a Shu citizen."
"Half of it is enough."
How could the Queen of Shu not know what King Xiaoyao was talking about? Her pretty face immediately blushed, which was rare for her.
"Uncle, why are you starting to say such things?"
"Besides, with my current reputation, no matter how sincere I am, that little guy won't be able to get close to me."
"Neither dare nor will I be willing to do so."
King Xiaoyao sighed softly, "Your Majesty, this is all caused by you. I advised Your Majesty not to do this back then."
"Now……"
The Queen of Shu said, "Uncle, there was nothing we could do at that time. Wu was pressuring us severely. If we didn't agree, it would damage the relationship between the two countries."
"I have no choice but to resort to this."
"After so many years, it's actually good. At least no one bothers me with this anymore."
King Xiaoyao sighed quietly. At this moment, he didn't know what to say.
The Empress of Shu Kingdom just smiled softly and said, "Uncle, let's talk about when we can negotiate with that little guy again."
King Xiaoyao said, "Wait a little longer. I want to wait until Da Gan and Nan Chu, or Wu, actually start a direct war, and then talk after seeing the results."
The Queen of Shu Kingdom pondered for a while, nodded and said: "Alright, at least we can continue to weaken the strength of the three countries."
"This way, it will be more beneficial to our Shu Kingdom."
It’s still a matter of procrastination.
Fisherman's mentality.
Want to reap the benefits.
On the other side, Zhao Hao in the villa was writing letters.
Make a plan.
Wu Song was standing nearby.
Every time Zhao Hao finished writing a letter, he would give it to him immediately and ask him to send it out quickly.
It was not until dusk that Zhao Hao had a simple meal and then called the blue bird over.
Zhao Hao said directly: "Go to Xiaoyao Palace to deliver a message, and give the last three days."
"If no decision has been made, the delegation will return to Dagan immediately."
"If you want to use force, tell them to hurry up!"
The bluebird nodded and turned away.
Wu Song said, "Sir, if they still don't talk, should we really return home?"
Zhao Hao snorted and laughed: "It's not that simple."
Then he sighed deeply and said, "Brother Wu, we can no longer leave just because we want to."
"Even if the Empress of Shu and King Xiaoyao agree to let us go, Her Royal Highness Princess Yuchengchang will not agree."
Wu Song's eyes turned cold, and he said, "As long as you give me two fireworks, I will send her to the West to see the Buddha first!"
Zhao Hao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Be patient, it's not that far yet."
"It will be soon. There will be something interesting to watch soon."
The blue bird returned quickly and reported to Zhao Hao: "My Lord, the people in Prince Xiaoyao's Palace said that Prince Xiaoyao is ill."
“They are stalling.”
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "You react quickly enough. Well, let's wait and see."
For the next half month, Zhao Hao did not take any action.
Just play and fly with Li Yu.
At the beginning, Li Yu only stayed in the villa at night.
In the end, Zhao Hao simply didn't let her leave.
In just ten days, Li Yu changed from a beautiful, elegant, bright and charming princess to a disheveled prostitute.
I have lost more than three times the weight.
There was almost no color left on his lips.
Zhao Hao did not take it lightly.
All he does all day long is eat and sleep, and he does all kinds of things, so he is never idle.
After half a month, Li Yu has become completely dependent on him.
The latest round of battle reports was also delivered to the imperial capital of Shu.
This time, the battle report completely dropped everyone's jaw.
After Dagan lost the Qimen Gorge and Tongshan lines, the 30,000 reinforcements led by Xiao Chuyun finally arrived.
When the Wu army saw the arrival of the Dagan reinforcements, although they had the advantage in numbers, they did not choose to fight head-on, but immediately moved to Yecheng near the south.
By occupying the Tongshan line and the Qimen Gorge line, the Wu army gained the strategic advantage of being able to maneuver at will.
At this time, Xiao Chuyun easily took back Tongshan.
Just when everyone thought that Xiao Chuyun would chase to Yecheng to find the main force of Wu State for a decisive battle.
But contrary to his usual practice, he did not do so.
Instead, he left 10,000 troops to garrison Tongshan and build a defense line, while he personally led 20,000 troops and traveled day and night to the State of Wu on the border between Wu and Shu.
As luck would have it, at this time, the 200,000 dan of grain that Wu had just purchased from Shu also arrived in Yucheng.
Xiao Chuyun captured Yucheng in one battle and seized 200,000 dan of military rations.
Then 20,000 men marched southward, completely ignoring the tens of thousands of Wu people in Dagan, and headed directly for Xuancheng, the closest city to the capital of Wu.
Xuancheng is more than 200 miles away from Yucheng and another 200 miles away from the capital of Wu.
Once Xuancheng is captured, the capital of Wu will be right in front of us.
Xiao Chuyun's action completely shocked the entire Wu Kingdom.
The entire capital of Wu State became tense in an instant, and immediately dispatched an army of 100,000 to Xuancheng to stop Xiao Chuyun from attacking the capital.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chuyun did not capture Xuancheng, but went around Xuancheng, taking the risk of being attacked from both sides, and led 20,000 soldiers to face the 100,000 Wu army.
In just one night, 40,000 Wu soldiers were killed, and a large number of them died under the thunder bombs.
