Chapter 147
The Twin Dragons of the Taiyue Dynasty
Yue Beiqiu had no plans to arrive anytime soon. After all, there weren't many opportunities to pit Guannei Hou and the King of Yan against each other! To him, the winner wasn't important; what mattered was the ability to weaken both sides.
But as they hurried on, they happened to encounter a large number of fleeing Guannei Hou's defeated soldiers, and thus received the news of King Yan's great victory!
We absolutely cannot travel slowly now, otherwise Guanzhong will be taken away by Youzhou!
…
In Youzhou, Gao Yi and Wang Changling had just settled their troops when they saw a flood of banners suddenly appearing in the distance.
Since Youzhou directly used the original camp of Guannei Hou, it occupied the advantageous terrain and was able to settle the soldiers conveniently and quickly.
On the other hand, the Tian Ce Army arrived suddenly and accelerated, but no scouts were sent out to set up camp in advance. Now everything had to start from scratch, and it took several hours to set up the camp.
The two groups looked at each other as if they were angry, but neither side took the initiative to move.
Before, they had only agreed to send troops together, and afterwards one side took Jinzhou and the other side took Guanzhong!
Unexpectedly, Tian Ce Prefecture suffered a crushing defeat and was directly beaten out of the three-way war! However, Youzhou single-handedly dealt a heavy blow to Guannei Hou and even occupied Chang'an and Taiyuan!
This gives you a huge advantage in the subsequent negotiations!
Of course, this is just the apparent reason, but behind the scenes there are reasons that neither side can easily say out loud!
Who will guarantee whose safety!
As the saying goes, a son of a wealthy family should not sit idle in the hall. Yue Chengqiu and Yue Lingxi are the foundation of each other's power. It is impossible for them to go to the other camp to negotiate like a fool.
Thus, this strange atmosphere spread among the soldiers and generals of both sides! The think tank officials of both sides were busy discussing the strategy for the next round of negotiations.
Although the two armies were close together, they seemed to have no intention of interacting with each other. They could only rely on fast horses and scouts to pass on information and agree on when to start actual contact.
This kind of discussion is undoubtedly extremely time-consuming. Yue Lingxi, Liu Buqi and Yue Chengqiu are all prepared for a protracted discussion!
…
In the western territory of the Great Yuezhi, the brutal offensive and defensive battles are still going on. The westward advance of the grassland people has brought a catastrophe to this ancient country.
In a tent deep in the grassland camp, Shangguan Luoyang of the Yanshi clan was meeting with Shangguan Yan's confidant who had just survived a thousand miles of yellow sand in Mobei!
He also brought Shangguan Yan's final message! "Bid your time, plan carefully before taking action!"
Shangguan Luoyang took a deep breath, and the sadness in his eyes turned into determination.
Shangguan Yan was only the Left Wise King in name only, and had almost no power of his own on the grassland!
The reason why he was given such a high position was entirely because of the important role he played during his undercover period in the Central Plains!
Now that Shangguan Yan is dead, he no longer has the qualifications to be the king of the grassland!
It is almost impossible for Shangguan Luoyang, the daughter of Zuo Xian Wang, to surpass all the other beauties in the harem as before without any support from grassland forces!
Shangguan Yan had anticipated this outcome long ago, so right after he killed Yue Wuji and gained control of the army, he directly sent his confidants to secretly find a way from Mobei to Shangguan Luoyang!
After carefully reading the letter Shangguan Yan left for her, it was clearly stated that the reason she did not retreat was to take advantage of this opportunity to severely damage the Youzhou army!
He also tried to stir up internal disputes in Taiyue to create opportunities for the grassland army to march north!
Shangguan Luoyang could only sigh inwardly. His father had no intention of setting foot on the grassland at all. No one knows a father better than his daughter. Shangguan Yan's doubts about his own bloodline have become more and more serious over the years. Shangguan Luoyang has actually noticed it!
But unlike Shangguan Yan's contradictory psychology, she is a complete power lover!
The source of all this was the choice Shangguan Luoyang made after careful consideration after his crushing defeat to Liu Buqi in Jinan Prefecture!
Only with the status and power given by the grassland can he have the capital to compete with the current Anguo Hou Liu Buqi.
The previous battle for the Youzhou Great Wall was just a hair's breadth away from completely defeating Liu Buqi! Unfortunately, it was just that short!
After shaking off his annoyance and burying the suppressed sadness deep in his heart, Shangguan Luoyang turned his gaze to the city in the distance where huge cheers were erupting!
The grassland warriors once again captured a city of Dayuezhi!
She gently placed Shangguan Yan's last letter close to her body, turned around, picked up the comb in front of the bronze mirror, and slowly began to dress herself up!
You need to walk the rest of the road by yourself!
This time, the Great Wall suffered a disastrous defeat, and Shangguan Luoyang's status in the grassland plummeted, and he was even demoted to a titleless Yanshi!
Those titled Yanshi who were suppressed by her before have now climbed over her head. The sudden death of her father has made her completely lose protection.
At this moment, no matter how much resentment and sadness you feel in your heart, you must take care of your appearance. This is your only asset now!
"Liu Buqi! Next time, it won't just be a close call!"
After packing up, Shangguan Luoyang slowly walked out of the tent, and the golden afterglow of the setting sun covered the road ahead of her!
It may take a long time before I have the chance to fight Liu Buqi again!
…
At the Youzhou Army's main camp, Yue Lingxi was still teasing the infant Yue Beichen. Liu Buqi asked casually, "Lingxi, are you sure you want to go to the Tiance Army camp in person?"
Without even turning around, Yue Lingxi casually replied while fooling the child, "Yeah! This is really not going to work! They've been arguing over a single negotiation location for four days! And they still haven't reached a consensus!"
"We are very poor and cannot afford to delay!"
Liu Buqi said with some worry, "Things are different now. When we were in the capital, we were still relatively young and could still retreat easily!"
"Now that Guannei Hou has passed away, the situation in the world has become increasingly clear. It has become a situation where the world is divided into three parts: our Youzhou, Yue Wuji's Jiangdong, and the Tiance Mansion in the Central Plains!"
"If you take the risk of meeting me at this time, and Yue Chengqiu ignores public opinion and deliberately captures you, then all the good things in Youzhou will be ruined!"
Yue Lingxi laughed heartily. After Liu Buqi gave birth to a son, her dependence on him became even more obvious. This time, she was obviously a little confused due to her concern for him!
"Don't worry, Buqi! As long as this little guy and you are here, Yue Chengqiu won't dare to attack me easily!"
"So I went to the appointment in person this time. It seemed dangerous, but it was actually very easy to cut the Gordian knot!"
"You can rest assured!"
