Dry capital city.
Sifang Pavilion.
Zhang Dian had already left, and the remaining envoys from Feng Kingdom and the seventh prince of Liang Kingdom hid together.
The third-rank official of Feng State, who was not worthy of having a name, had long lost the arrogance he had before coming, and stood beside the seventh prince of Liang State with a humble look on his face.
Because he knew they were no longer safe.
The previous scene had already frightened him to death.
Only the Seventh Prince and the old guards around him could give him a sense of security.
He followed the Seventh Prince wherever he went, even when he went to the toilet he had to wait outside.
"Seventh Prince, do you think we should run away before it gets dark? I think the Ganges have evil intentions and don't take us seriously at all. When we return to the capital, I will report this to the king!" The unnamed official said angrily, forcing a smile.
Tuoba Hu looked at him with disdain.
What the hell is this? Although Gan Country is not strong, it is still much stronger than your Feng Country.
The two countries were played around by the three vassal kings of the Gan country. They were sold out by others and are still counting money for others!
He knew that even if the Marquis Anle of Yun State had not been beheaded at the city gate, their two caravans would never be able to return to their respective countries.
If he hadn't wanted to use the Feng Kingdom's envoy team to block the bullets, I wouldn't even pay attention to them. They even followed me to the toilet.
If he was outside the city, I would have killed him long ago!
"Don't worry, sir. Gan Country has already offended Yun Country, so they won't do anything to us, unless they want to destroy the country and declare war on the three countries. They don't have the ability to do that yet!"
"Besides, I am here. Even if they are blinded by greed, I will take you away safely. You can go back and have a rest first. I am going to bed too!" Tuoba Hu pretended to comfort the envoy.
The unnamed official felt a little relieved.
He also wanted to have a candlelit night chat with the Seventh Prince and sleep in the same bed with him, but after seeing the look in the Seventh Prince's eyes, he gave up and had to leave.
"Waste!" After the man left, Tuoba Hu snorted and looked at the old guard.
"Commander Sun, how is it? Do you sense any danger?"
The old man looked relaxed at the moment and spoke confidently.
"Your Highness, rest assured. I have only sensed one Dharma Realm from the Imperial Palace, and he has just broken through. I estimate that he is only at the first level of Dharma Realm. It will not be difficult to capture him. Gandu is so big, I can come and go freely. If there is no army besieging me, even taking the head of Emperor Gan would be as easy as taking something out of a bag!"
Tuoba Hu felt very sad.
The old man's words allowed him to sleep well today.
Tuoba Hu narrowed his eyes in the direction of the imperial palace and sneered.
"No matter how conspiracies you have, I will break them all by myself, and I will definitely have a share of the spoils of the country."
......
Dingyang Prefecture.
Prince Ning Li Chenghuan put on a precious armor that he had not worn for many years and wore a scimitar at his waist.
"Nephew, and Prime Minister Li, you can't handle this big thing, so let me do it!"
Tongzhou Prefecture.
King Zhao Li Chengfeng issued a military order.
"Come here, pass on my order, organize the army and prepare for war. The treacherous prime minister Li Linfu in Gandu has held the emperor hostage, seized government affairs, killed envoys, and disrupted our national destiny. Follow me to purge the emperor's side and kill the treacherous ministers!"
Linchong Prefecture.
King Wei Li Jue lit a stick of incense on the spirit tablet in the mourning hall, knelt for an hour, and then left suddenly.
Only a whisper remained lingering in the mourning hall.
"Father, I have waited for this day for many years!"
As orders continue to be issued from the three royal palaces, hundreds of thousands of troops are ready to go, waiting for the order to come, and Dagan will be torn apart in the hands of their own people until they welcome their final master.
In this bleak atmosphere, the sky began to become extremely gloomy, as if foreshadowing the coming of a disaster.
Huaiyang Prefecture.
A middle-aged man in brocade clothes stood on a viewing platform, looking at the suddenly changing sky and sighed slightly.
"Father, the weather has changed. It's probably going to rain. Should we wait until the rain stops or leave before it starts?" Behind him, a young man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes stepped forward and stood side by side with Zhu Wang.
The middle-aged man stretched out his right hand outside the courtyard. Three or two drops of rain had already fallen, which brought another sigh from him.
"It's too late to leave before the rain starts. I don't know how long this rain will last. I don't want to wait. Let's go now!"
The middle-aged man took a step forward, jumped out of the observation deck and landed on the ground, and the young man behind him followed.
The two walked in the rain towards the city center.
There is the most respected mansion in Huaiyang Prefecture.
Huaiyang Marquis Mansion.
…
The northern border of Gan country.
General Li Tianba, the general who guards the north, climbed up Yumen Pass.
This is the first checkpoint between Gan State and Liang State.
Li Tianba has been guarding this place for thirty years.
"Sir, the Liang army has made a big move. Three hundred thousand soldiers have advanced twenty miles and set up camp. The spies have reported that the army's defenses have become tighter, and there are teams transporting food and convoys carrying siege equipment in the rear."
"I suspect that Liang Country intends to invade our border again!"
A deputy general reported the latest discoveries to Li Tianba.
Li Tianba frowned.
He is feeling a lot of pressure now.
Even though he had been guarding this place for thirty years and had experienced hundreds of battles, big and small, the most serious of which was when the 800,000-strong army of Liang went into battle, he had never felt such pressure.
It is true that the current situation is too complicated.
Although he was guarding the border, he also saw everything that happened in Gandu.
However, there has been no news for a whole day.
He didn't think that the third prince who was held hostage by Prime Minister Li had any deterrent power.
Especially the three great princes.
If the late emperor were still alive, no matter how bad he was, the three great vassal kings would not dare to move. They would have no reason to go to war, and even if all three armies came out together, they would not be able to win the support of the people, nor the military, and would surely fail.
But now it's different.
The three great princes will certainly raise an army to support the king under the pretext of clearing the court of corrupt officials. This is above board.
Sometimes war just needs a reason.
At this time, the Liang army moved, and it was not a simple matter for anyone to imagine.
Li Tianba thought again of the diplomatic delegation that went to Kyoto a few days ago, and a cloud of gloom grew in his heart.
If the three kingdoms united and the three vassal kings raised their armies at the same time, even if he gave up the border and the Marquis of Huaiyang led his troops to rescue him, Da Gan would still be in danger.
Moreover, he couldn't move.
If he doesn't move, even if the three princes win, Da Gan will still be named Li.
If he moves, there will be no possibility for Dagan to exist.
He knew that the three great princes also knew that he would not come back to help.
"Pass the order and prepare for battle. Have the brothers be mentally prepared. In this battle, be ready to die at any time."
"This battle is a matter of life and death for Da Gan. If we win, I will make sure that the barbarians of Liang will not dare to set foot in our Gan country again for ten years."
"If we lose, I, Li Tianba, will die before all the other soldiers. Whether Da Gan can survive forever depends on God's will!"
