Chapter 202 Mao Yunkai
Chapter 202 Mao Yunkai
General Mao finally managed to sort out the situation in Jinyang City.
After comforting the people in Jinyang City and finally being able to take a breath, he was told that Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing had been strolling leisurely in the city for the past two days. He almost couldn't breathe.
I'm so envious. Who can understand how frustrating it is for a military general like him to have to do the work of a civil official?
"Xuanyuan, you've been quite relaxed these past few days."
At the beginning, General Mao called Xuanyuan Xingyao "Prince", but after several collaborations, the two sides became familiar with each other and the initial unfamiliarity was gone, and they started calling each other by their names.
"You're too slow."
Xuanyuan Xingyao retorted without any hesitation.
"As a military commander, I am already very good at handling these trivial matters."
General Mao also wanted to quit, but the lord of Jinyang City had died in battle and the new lord had not yet been decided, so he had no choice but to take on the responsibilities of the lord.
"Has there been any news from Fate?"
After joking for a few words, Xuanyuan Xingyao's expression changed and he started talking about business.
Upon hearing this, General Mao's relaxed expression disappeared and he became serious again.
"Fate's reinforcements will arrive in five days at most, and there's news that they've brought quite a few summoners with them this time."
Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing frowned when they heard this.
Summoner? If Fate really brought a summoner, then it was obviously coming for Nangong Jing.
Summoners can play a significant role on the battlefield, but like magicians, they can easily hurt their own people by mistake.
Therefore, the largest number of people on the battlefield are still soldiers.
"How long will it take for Shui Ling's reinforcements to arrive?"
Whether Fate brought summoners with him, how many summoners he brought, and whether they came for Nangong Jing, these will only be known after Fate's reinforcements arrive.
Xuanyuan Xingyao now wants to know when Shui Ling’s reinforcements will arrive.
Logically speaking, Shui Ling set out earlier and the distance was shorter, so they should have arrived long ago.
General Mao was also a little confused. Logically, it should have arrived a few days ago, so why hasn't it arrived yet?
"I'll have someone check it out again."
General Mao felt a little nervous, wondering if anything had happened to the reinforcements.
Fortunately, General Mao did not feel uneasy for too long. On the second day, someone came to report that reinforcements had arrived, and the leader was his brother.
General Mao was surprised and happy when he heard this. He was surprised that the reinforcements had only arrived now, but he was happy that it was his brother who was leading the troops.
When General Mao first requested support, he was a little worried that the person leading the troops would be a general who was not in harmony with him, but he did not expect that the king would directly send his own brother over.
The reinforcements finally arrived, and it was his brother who led the team, so General Mao naturally went out of the city to welcome them in person.
"Brother, I didn't expect you to lead the team, but why did you arrive so late?"
As soon as General Mao left the city, he gave his elder brother a bear hug, and then asked with some confusion.
Originally, Mao Yunkai was very happy to see his younger brother, but after hearing the other party's question, his face suddenly turned ugly.
Although Mao Yunkai was angry, he knew that this was not the place to talk, so he gave Mao Yunyuan a look, indicating that he should talk after entering the city.
After Mao Yunyuan received Mao Yunkai's eye signal, the joy on his face instantly disappeared and his eyes became a little darker.
The 100,000 troops brought by Mao Yunkai were also stationed in the military camp outside the city.
Mao Yunkai kept his deputy general. Mao Yunkai and Mao Yunyuan were brothers, and they were very familiar with their deputy generals, so there was no need to worry about any disagreements.
After bringing Mao Yunkai to the City Lord's Mansion, Mao Yunyuan couldn't wait to ask.
"Brother, what happened? Why did you arrive just now?"
"It's still those bastards, they're still playing tricks on us even at this time. They say that since Longying has already sent reinforcements, we don't need to send so many more people. Some even say that you should cry poor to Prince Hanxi and ask Emperor Longying for help."
When Mao Yunkai thought of the faces of some people in the court, he was so angry that he slapped a coffee table and broke it.
Mao Yunyuan couldn't believe his ears. How could there be such a shameless person in this world?
"Are they crazy? They dare to plot against the Dragon Shadow Empire. Aren't they afraid that Dragon Shadow will get angry and leave immediately? "
Mao Yunkai sighed and said after hearing this.
"Who says it's not? But rather than plotting against the Dragon Shadow Empire, it's more like plotting against us two brothers."
"us???"
When Mao Yunyuan heard what Mao Yunkai said, he was stunned at first, and then he realized what was going on.
"It's come to this, and you're still trying to scheme. No wonder you lose nine out of ten times."
Mao Yunyuan and Mao Yunkai came from families of military generals, so their ability to lead troops in battle was beyond doubt.
In addition, the brothers protect each other, so they are very prestigious among the generals.
But no matter how prestigious they are, there are always people who dislike them.
Mao Yunyuan had lost several cities in succession before, and some people in the court attacked him for this.
In other words, Mao Yunkai spoke for Mao Yunyuan, and King Shuiling also knew that the defeat could not be entirely blamed on Mao Yunyuan, so he did not follow the wishes of those people and punish Mao Yunyuan.
What Mao Yunkai didn't expect was that they would get rid of Mao Yunyuan even if it meant offending the Dragon Shadow Empire, or even when there was a crisis of national destruction.
I really don’t know what those people are thinking. Do they think that if Mao Yunyuan dies, they can replace Mao Yunyuan’s position?
Can they withstand Fate's attack?
I really don’t know what this means!!!
"Fortunately, the King and His Royal Highness were wise enough not to be provoked by those people. However, their instigation delayed us for a few days, and our departure was delayed. The King was also worried that they would cause more trouble, so he sent me here directly."
Mao Yunkai finally explained why he was the one leading the team this time.
Mao Yunyuan nodded. He said that generally, people who are related by blood cannot guard one place at the same time. They have to check and balance each other so that there is no need to worry about one person dominating.
"I really don't know why the king still keeps those people?"
Mao Yunyuan curled his lips and said.
"Though those people are a bit useless, at least there are still a few capable fighters in their families. Your Majesty should give them some respect. Moreover, they are only good at scheming, but have not committed any major mistakes. Your Majesty cannot punish them arbitrarily."
Mao Yunkai patted Mao Yunyuan on the shoulder and comforted him with a chuckle.
Mao Yunyuan was still feeling angry, but he also knew that what Mao Yunkai said was right, so he could only snort childishly to express his dissatisfaction.
No matter what, Mao Yunyuan was still very happy to see Mao Yunkai coming.
In the evening, Mao Yunyuan asked someone to prepare a table of dishes and called Xuanyuan Xingyao and others.
One reason is to welcome Mao Yunkai.
Secondly, we also discussed how to fight the next battle.
The meal actually didn't take long. After a brief greeting, they began to discuss how to drive Fate out of Shuiling.
"I'm thinking, should we take the initiative and attack before Fate's reinforcements arrive?"
Mao Yunkai was the first to propose.
Don’t talk about whether it is despicable or not. Mao Yunkai only knows that Fate robbed their city and killed many of their people.
"It's not impossible, but Fate is very crazy. Before, a war master blew himself up in order to break through. In order to delay us, they can even attack by exchanging lives for ours."
Xuanyuan Xingyao said with a frown.
Mao Yunkai's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this, and then he said in a cold voice.
"If that's the case, then we must attack as soon as possible. Once their reinforcements arrive, won't they attack us with a life-for-life approach? No, they'll only attack more fiercely."
Mao Yunkai's words fell into silence. Yes, they seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.
If Fate's way of fighting is so crazy, then it will only be crazier when their reinforcements arrive.
"Then we'll rest for a day, and tomorrow we'll attack the Fit camp. Who knows, we might even be able to recapture all the cities we've captured before."
A general joked deliberately.
Although everyone knew that this was just a joke, the other party's words still made everyone smile slightly.
In the evening, everyone went to bed early and rested well.
The next day, before dawn, all the generals appeared in the military camp outside the city.
"My elder brother, Prince Han Xi and I will personally lead the troops. General Liu and General Chen will be in charge of Jinyang City. The rest will follow me."
As soon as everyone arrived, Mao Yunyuan began to give orders with a serious expression.
"Yes, General."
Everyone on Shui Ling's side responded in unison, while Long Ying's side nodded slightly to show their agreement.
Although Mao Yunyuan did not send out all his troops like last time, he only left 50,000 soldiers to guard Jinyang City and took the rest away.
The news that Mao Yunyuan, Mao Yunkai and Xuanyuan Xingyao led their troops to attack the Fite military camp was soon discovered by Fite's secret sentries.
The secret sentry immediately passed the news back to Qiao Linqi.
When Qiao Linqi found out, he looked very solemn.
Fate's troops were originally at a disadvantage, and now with Shui Ling's reinforcements arriving, Fate's troops are even more insufficient.
If the two sides fight at this time, it will be very disadvantageous to Fate.
In fact, Qiao Lingqi has always been against Fate's attack on several large kingdoms at this time.
According to Qiao Lingqi, it would be best to incorporate all the small countries around Fit, reorganize the military forces, and then attack several large kingdoms such as Shuiling.
It would be best to attack the capital all at once and not give them any chance to react.
But the king of Fate felt that Fate had been lurking for so many years and had already accumulated enough strength, so there would definitely be no problem.
At the beginning, Shui Ling was completely vulnerable, and Qiao Linqi also thought that the king was right.
But after the Dragon Shadow Empire arrived, Qiao Linqi discovered that the military force that Fate had accumulated for so many years might be enough to fight against a few kingdoms, but it was still a little short of the Dragon Shadow Empire.
But having come to this point, Qiao Linqi or Fite has no way out and can only bite the bullet and continue to move forward. Author's words: Thank you Bole 9492239 (9492239) for your support, mua! To know more exciting content, please leave me a message on Liancheng Reading
