This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 752 The Art of Language
Chengu County.

When Mu Xiqiu led the army to arrive here, it was considered an empty city. Mu Xiqiu was not surprised. Wen Ruyan had already led the army to Chuanzhou City. Naturally, there is no need to do fearless struggles and cause unnecessary casualties of the people.

However, although Chengu County has become an empty city, there are still many things left in the city. For example, the granary in Chengu County still has nearly two-thirds of the grain and grass. That's all there is to go.

County government.

Mu Xiqiu came here after ordering the army to rest. Of course, Peng Hai had already ordered someone to tidy up the place in advance. He knew that there was a cleanliness habit these days, and he would never touch anything used by others.

In the hall, Mu Xiqiu was at the top, and several generals sat at his lower position. Originally, they wanted to wait for today's emperor to speak first, but Mu Xiqiu kept kneading his brows, and did not speak for a long time. .

After being silent for a while, the generals at the bottom looked at each other, and then someone stood up and said, "Your Majesty, are you really going to attack Chuanzhou City this time?"

Mu Xiqiu glanced at him, and replied in a rather indifferent tone: "If I don't attack Chuanzhou City, why did I lead my troops all the way to come here?"

Although his tone was very calm, the general who spoke still felt a chill suddenly enveloping him, and a large piece of goose bumps appeared on his body uncontrollably. To be honest, they were really loved by Mu Xiqiu. The iron-blooded wrist was frightened. Since Mu Xiqiu came to the throne, many officials, big and small, had their heads beheaded by him. Faced with such murderous behavior, who would dare to disobey his intentions easily?
It's just that the battle has been fought until now, and their generals have no idea. They are all veterans who have fought on the battlefield for decades, so why can't they understand the current situation?
It is the most sensible choice for the army to withdraw to Southern Chu this time. Although more than half of their troops were lost in Da Zhou in this battle, the results they gained were very rich. Time once again summoned countless soldiers. Looking back at the Great Zhou, the soldiers were lost, and dozens of cities disappeared in smoke. With the ebb and flow, what should the Great Zhou use to resist the next war?

So, no matter how uneasy he was, the general took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, the general thinks that attacking Chuanzhou City at this moment is the worst policy."

"Oh? Are you questioning my decision?" Mu Xiqiu's eyes narrowed, and the general's head lowered by another three points.

"The end will not dare."

"Don't you dare? You've already said what you said, and now you're telling me you don't dare?"

The general knelt down on the ground at that time, and the fear in his heart became a little indifferent after being infinitely magnified. He raised his head and looked at Mu Xiqiu with a cold face and said, "Your Majesty! Great Zhou Jing!" Wang Wenruyan has led [-] soldiers into Chuanzhou City at this moment, and the Black Cavalry Battalion, the most elite army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, has come out in full force. The total strength of the opponent is now more than [-]. [-], and after a long journey for several days, people are already exhausted, and the other party is waiting for work and guarding a fortified city, how can we attack it? Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

After saying this, the general bowed his head deeply on the ground at that time, and stopped speaking.

Mu Xiqiu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the other generals in the audience and asked, "You all think so too?"

The generals immediately got up and knelt down on the ground, shouting in unison: "Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Mu Xiqiu snorted coldly at that time, the sound was like a blow to the heads of these generals, some of them trembled in shock.

"I have made my own decision. Today, the law does not blame the public. Let me forgive you for now. If anyone dares to question my decision in the future, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Step back!"

The group of generals immediately shouted in unison tremblingly: "Yes!"

After they left, Mu Xiqiu ordered directly to Peng Hai: "The person who arranged Tianji kept an eye on them. If anyone dares to speak out about this matter in private, I will take his head directly!"

"Yes."

Two days later.

The army of Southern Chu approached the city of Chuanzhou, and Mu Xiqiu rode at the forefront. On the city wall, Chen Ling looked solemn, and asked Wen Ruyan beside him, "Your Highness, who is walking in the forefront?" The new emperor of Southern Chu, Mu Xiqiu?"

Chen Ling had never met Mu Xiqiu, so he naturally asked this question.

Wen Ruyan's eyes were like water, he nodded and said, "Exactly."

Chen Ling immediately ordered: "The archers are ready! Just keep an eye on the person in front, as long as you get close, shoot directly!"

"Yes!"

Wen Ruyan turned his head and glanced at him, but Chen Ling didn't seem to feel Wen Ruyan's gaze at all, he lowered his head and stared fixedly not far below.

But when Mu Xiqiu was two hundred feet away from the city wall, he suddenly stopped, and an archer frowned and said, "General, the distance is not enough!"

Chen Ling sighed helplessly and waved his hands, and the group of archers put down their weapons at that time.

under the city walls.

Mu Xiqiu took the lead and walked forward a few feet, and then shouted directly from the air.

"Is His Royal Highness Prince Jing here?"

The voice undulated like a sound wave and swept across the city wall in an instant. Chen Ling and He Changzai were shocked. It sounded directly in the ear.

Even Xie Shan, the commander of the Black Cavalry Battalion next to him, showed a trace of solemnity on his face.

With such a distance, the voice can still be guaranteed to remain unchanged. How much internal strength is required to do this?Xie Shan asked himself that he could not do this.

Wen Ruyan didn't care about their expressions, but took a step forward, and said with a smile, "Brother Mu, are you all right?"

His voice was as loud as what Mu Xiqiu said just now, and it was also so far away, it was clearly transmitted to the black army behind him, causing a commotion in the Southern Chu army at that time.

Seeing that Wen Ruyan had pulled back a round, Xie Shan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

When the two armies are fighting, it is most taboo to lose momentum. Although Mu Xiqiu just said a simple sentence, it has already aroused uneasiness among the people on the city wall. Seeing Wen Ruyan this time also aroused the anxiety of the Southern Chu army. The commotion, the stone in their hearts naturally fell down.

"Nothing, thank you Your Highness for your concern."

Mu Xiqiu smiled, and the voice came up again.

"That's good. When I left Jingzhou that day, Brother Mu was stabbed four times and seven arrows. He fled into the deep mountains in panic. I thought I would never see you again."

"I'm ashamed to say that I was lucky enough to survive that day, but that day His Highness poisoned me so much that I lost all of my internal energy and had to be carried while walking. Have you ever recovered?"

"Poison? Little Doyle, it's worthless!"
