Chapter 984: This Queen of Daxia, Could She Be a Man?
The light inside the largest military tent in the Mobei camp was not as bright as that inside Helian Bobo's tent, but an invisible sense of oppression arose because of this.
In the military tent, generals gathered, and each of them had a gloomy face, which seemed to complement the darkness inside the tent, making the atmosphere in the huge tent scary and intimidating.
Except for Helian Bobo and his eldest son and third son, who were qualified to sit here, all the generals with sufficient rank were present.
Beside Zhong Shuoxing, Ding He looked at everyone present, but no one spoke. He then turned his gaze back to Zhong Shuoxing.
They were supposed to be discussing matters, but in the end they spoke in a halting manner, and each time someone would speak only after the middle speaker had spoken.
This seems very strange.
But it is understandable.
Today's battle with Daxia really shocked them all.
Bai Shi Qi Xiang glanced at Ding He, then looked at Zhong and said, "Okay."
But just as he was about to speak, Zhong Shuoxing, who had been looking down at the sand table, spoke up: "Send the message to Rouran."
Yuwen Baobao, who was actually Yuwen Tai, had a wound on his body and a broken arm. He hung his arm in front of his chest. He stood up and said, "It has been sent. We used a nighthawk. We will receive the news within two days."
Actually, Yuwen Tai didn't need to come. After all, he was not only injured in his arm, but also had some internal injuries, so he didn't go with them to Wuhekou this time.
But at the moment, Yuwen Tai had an unpleasant look on his face, because he had listened to what He Liuhun, or Gao Huan, said about the whole process. At first, he found it unbelievable and thought that Gao Huan was exaggerating. It was not until he saw Helian Bobo and the tragic situation in which only one out of ten of his elite cavalrymen were killed that he was shocked and chose to believe it.
This is why he would come here even if he was injured.
Zhong Shuoxing still lowered his head to look at the sand table in front of him, "Send them to the people in the Western Regions and the King of Shu, and tell them about Daxia's weapons."
It was said that the armor on Xing's body had been taken off, and he was wearing a light blue loose long robe, but he didn't seem to care and let the clothes fall to the ground, and he even sat on the ground.
Zhou Qian, with half white hair, looked at Zhong and said, "It's easy to send news to the people in the Western Regions, but it's not easy to send news to the King of Shu in Daxia."
Zhong Shuoxing continued, "Didn't Prince Deguang have contact with the fifth son of the King of Shu through Jinbo Mountain before? Just take this road directly."
Zhou Qian was silent: "Jinbo Mountain is now at war with Xiuqimen, and Liu Fenggu, Feng Jingtang, and Gongsun Chunu are also interfering. I'm afraid..."
Zhong Shuoxing rarely looked up at Zhou Qian and said, "Tell Jin Boshan to either do it as ordered or send the Blood Wolf Guards over."
Zhou Qian immediately bowed and beat his chest.
Yelu Deguang, the commander of the Mobei Black Feather Corps who created the Mobei Black Feather Cavalry and the second son of Mobei Queen Mother Shulü Ping, said, "What's the point of doing this?"
Zhong Shuoxing looked at Yelu Deguang and answered straightforwardly: "No."
Yelu Deguang asked: "Then do it?"
Zhong Shuoxing said: "It must be done because it has no meaning, so it must be done. What if it becomes meaningful after it is done?"
Hearing this, everyone in the military tent frowned.
"Lord Nanyuan, the real solution right now is how to solve the weapon." Yuan Hong, a Tuoba man, although not from one of the ten Tuoba tribes, is a servant of the Helian tribe. However, because he is good at fighting and can lead an army alone, he is here today.
But everyone knows that this person is actually here to replace Helian Bobo.
Zhong Shuoxing looked at Yuan Hong and asked, "General Yuan has thought of a way?"
Yuan Hong frowned: "It is precisely because we didn't expect it that we gathered here, but the King of Nanyuan went to do these things."
Zhong Shuoxing stopped looking at Yuan Hong and spoke, "Because I can't think of it, I have to do this. And as I said, those things on the wall of Daxia are the biggest threat to us. The 30,000 troops of the enemy were destroyed in an instant because of hundreds of those things. When the enemy just said that, General Yuan was there too."
At this point, Zhong Shuoxing raised his eyes and looked in the direction where the Tuoba people were sitting: "We must do everything we can, that is what we have to do now! As long as it is against Daxia, we must do everything! Confronting Daxia with those things head-on is a dead end! Just shouting a few words and yelling a few times will not take Wuhekou! The war in the Western Regions has already started. If the King of Shu sends troops at this time, even if Zhu Huang! Zhao Wuxiu! What if they have such weapons over there, it will not harm us anyway, so why not tell them, as for the meaning, as I said, there is no meaning!"
Hearing this, Yuan Hong wanted to refute, but he frowned because he didn't know how to refute!
He was also present today and saw it clearly.
What kind of battle could it be that half of the people have died before they even get through? Even if the remaining people keep charging, they will continue to die along the way. What happens after that?
In close combat, even if the number of people is still superior, the morale is long gone. Can the fight still be fought?
And the other party won't stand still and wait for you to rush over.
If it were possible to refute it, Yuan Hong would not be the only one who would stand up and refute it, but no one did.
Because they all saw the scene during the day with their own eyes.
No solution.
despair!
It was completely weighing on everyone's mind.
If we play like today
There is no fighting!
What made them even more desperate was that, according to their understanding, those things on the walls of Wuhekou were more powerful and terrifying than what they saw today!
What are you hitting!
At this time, someone spoke up: "We lead the army to suppress them, attract the attention of the Daxia people, and ask those senior grandmasters of the end to destroy those things?"
Ding He said, "General Bai, you saw what happened to Yan Yunxiao today, not to mention the old Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain, the Queen of Daxia, and those other people."
Heba Tao opened his eyes and said slowly: "With Helian Bobo's current state, I'm afraid that even if Yan Yunxiao and the others haven't made a move yet, we won't get any benefit if we rush over. So, it's feasible to use all means possible. Since we can't fight head-on, we might as well try all other methods we can think of."
"But the question is what method to use!" An irritable old man stood up and said, "Everyone saw what happened today. I have fought in battles all my life, but I have never seen anything like this. Moreover, it is obvious that Daxia did this on purpose, in order to suddenly strike and win this battle!"
After saying that, the old general continued to curse: "And there is a stupid way, I will bring more lives with me! Today I see that the number of those iron lumps is limited, and the black spear also needs to be rotated. There is free time here, just charge! If you can grab the black lump, use the black spear to hit them!"
Everyone looked at the old man in silence. It was indeed a stupid method, a very stupid method.
Gao Huan stood up and said, "What about a sneak attack?"
Everyone looked at Gao Huan.
Gao Huan said, "The threat on the city wall is huge. What if those of us who volunteered to go and have the strength of a Grandmaster of the Ending Realm risk our lives to destroy those things? If we don't care about our lives, then it doesn't matter what Yan Yunxiao and the others do. The goal is to destroy them anyway."
Zhong Shuoxing smiled and looked up at this young general who had a bad temper but was extremely powerful and the fastest rising general here: "Then what? You are ruined, Daxia gets a new one, and you died in vain?"
Gao Huan frowned and sat down again.
Everyone looked at him, but no one said anything.
Because there is really no other way!
How to fight!
Zhong Shuoxing looked at everyone, stood up and said, "In fact, everyone still wants to fight and go south, which is good enough. What I am afraid of is that everyone will say to withdraw the troops and stop fighting! But fortunately, there are no such idiots. After all, with such weapons, the little emperor will not let us go. After killing so many Daxia people, the little emperor will completely wipe out Mobei. So whoever says this, I will use the ability of killing first and reporting later given by the Queen Mother, and kill as many as I can, but fortunately, no one said anything."
Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhong Shuoxing and fell into deep thought.
It's not that no one has thought about it, but it's just a thought. Since they have gone to the battle, and the army under their command is not defeated, so why should they escape? Cowardly behavior! Don’t just talk about it. If someone expresses this idea now, there will be people who dare to draw their swords and kill people!
Zhong Shuoxing smiled and said, "It's okay, after all, morale is not that low. Let's do what we should do and think of a solution slowly. The more archers the better, and the same applies to crossbows and catapults. At worst, we can use them to attack Wuhekou. I don't believe that the thing on the city wall can hit the catapult a hundred feet away."
As he spoke, Zhong Shuoxing placed his hand on the map and continued, "One more thing."
Everyone looked at Zhong and said okay.
Zhong Shuoxing pinched his chin and looked down at the sand table map: "This Queen of Daxia, could it be a man?"
