Chapter 1384 The Vietnam War Begins

Chapter 1384 The Vietnam War Begins

Seeing her like this, Gu Xun sighed secretly in his heart, but didn't say anything else.

I have long been used to it. If these women really obeyed my words, they would be damned.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with fooling around, as it can in some ways invigorate the relationship between husband and wife.

Then, Gu Xun turned to ask some serious questions:

"You must have gone to see Tianze before, right? How was it? What was the result of the meeting?"

When the conversation got down to business, Yan Lingji stopped teasing Gu Xun, curled her lips and replied, "What do you think? That's it!"

"He refused to listen to my advice, refused to surrender, and was unwilling to give in."

"and then?"

"Then I'll leave!" Yan Lingji spread her hands.

Considering her past relationship, it was the limit for her to go out of her way to give him a few words of advice.

It's not like she doesn't understand Tianze's character. She basically expected the ending before she went there. She just wanted to go back to Baiyue on the way.

What more could she be expected to do?

"Before I left Baiyue, the Qin army had already started attacking. Now...he should have been either captured or killed, or he may have fled to the south."

Tianze's territory, that is, the Dongou generation and parts of Minyue, were already too close to the Central Plains and could not be defended. Guxun had built a main road before for trade.

As soon as the Qin army moved south, they naturally sent it away at the speed of light.

After hearing this, Gu Xun shook his head and commented, "My heart is as high as the sky, but my life is as thin as paper!"

"Tianze always has trouble carrying his weight at critical moments."

After sighing with emotion, Gu Xun changed the subject and said, "That's fine. Once Tianze falls, the Battle of Baiyue has nothing to do with Quicksand. Let the empire do whatever it wants."

Yan Lingji heard this and asked curiously, "You really don't care and let those hundreds of thousands of soldiers rush into Lingnan without asking?"

Gu Xun shrugged, "What else can I ask? I even gave the fleet that I worked so hard to build to the empire for free. It's already interesting enough."

"This war will never stop, and there are only two outcomes - the empire will win miserably after years of hard fighting, or the empire will lose miserably after years of hard fighting, then spend several years fighting again, and finally win miserably. "

The reason why the empire fought so fiercely in the Baiyue War was not because the frontline generals were incompetent and failed in command, nor was it because the rear court made poor decisions and lacked supplies.

It lies in the environment and in people's hearts.

Except for gods, no one can make hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers adapt to the bad environment in the Lingnan region at once, and at the same time, there is no way to ensure stable logistics supplies in such a bad environment.

Except for gods, no one could make two different peoples merge together in such a sudden and violent way such as war in such a short time.

Not even gods are possible.

The harsh environment has caused a lot of unnecessary sacrifices.

The Baiyue people were unwilling to surrender and did not hesitate to fight with all their clan members to resist.

In this case

Gu Xun, so what?

Not everyone in the world will pay the price for what they have done, but Ying Zheng... happens to be the kind of person who needs to pay the price.

The consequences of the choices he made will be borne by the people, but in the end, his family will still be responsible.

have nothing to say.

Speaking of which, although Gu Xun has learned astrology and has the ability to imitate the magic stick and tell others about their destiny, he essentially does not believe in fate.

Because in his opinion this is nothing more than the result of personal choice. The fact that Ying Zheng will do these things is essentially determined by his character. He has a strong desire to conquer, loves great achievements, and is domineering and dictatorial... These are all his character traits, and they are not forced by some mysterious force.

If, like in the list of gods, King Zhou was inexplicably in love with a stone statue, and therefore angered Nuwa, and then sent a fox demon, then it would be pure heaven that wanted him to die. In other words, such a fate would mean that he was already dead. Nothing is too much.

Returning to the topic of the book, Yan Lingji saw that Gu Xun was not interested in talking about Baiyue anymore, so she changed the topic:

"What are you doing in Songhai now?"

Gu Xun glanced at her alertly, but instead of answering, asked, "What do you want to do again?"

"It's nothing, I just want to see if you need anything. Maybe I can help you?" Yan Lingji blinked her big shining eyes and stared at Gu Xun with a smile and replied.

"No need!" Gu Xun raised his hand, indicating that he didn't need it. "It's the greatest help to me if you can rest."

"Hmph!" Hearing this, Yan Lingji snorted in dissatisfaction, then rolled her eyes, smiled evilly, and asked, "Do you want to know where Concubine Yan is now?"

Gu Xun was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Do you know that she is in Songhai now!?"

As soon as these words came out, it was Yan Lingji's turn to be surprised.

Of course, she was not surprised that Gu Xun already knew that Concubine Yan was in Songhai.

Even if Gu Xun knew the specific whereabouts of Concubine Yan at this time, there would be nothing surprising.

She was more interested in why Gu Xun reacted so strongly to the fact that she knew that Concubine Yan was in Songhai.

Logically speaking, even if Concubine Yan deliberately avoided him and didn't show up, this stinky man wouldn't care too much.

After all, nothing can happen, it's just that I can't see anyone for a while.

We are all an old married couple, and no one is tired of anyone else. If we don’t see each other, we’ll see each other!

In the same way, she would know the whereabouts of Concubine Yan.

According to Gu Xun's temperament, he should be a little surprised, and then follow her questions and cooperate with her, which can be regarded as coaxing her to play.

The result was such a surprise...

"What's wrong with that woman?" With these thoughts flashing through her mind, Yan Lingji immediately looked curiously at Gu Xun's face.

Gu Xun subconsciously closed his mouth, thinking secretly that he shouldn't let this woman see that something was wrong.

"Say it quickly!" Yan Lingji didn't let him go, pulling Gu Xun's face and urging him.

In desperation, Gu Xun could only confirm with her again first, "Tell me first, how did you know that Concubine Yan is now in Songhai? Who told you, or did you learn it accidentally at home?"

"Hmph, that's interesting!" Yan Lingji, who was already doubtful, immediately found more interesting meanings in Gu Xun's question, but she still answered the other party's question first, "What you guessed is wrong, I I just learned about it from the kid named Tianming yesterday."

"Well...it's not definite news, it's just a guess."

"The kid said he was looking for Chitaki, and he seemed to have accidentally seen Chitaki appear on the big ship in Mirage."

"He thought it might be an illusion, but I guess it might not be an illusion, but that Chitaki was really on the boat."

"She is in the mirage, so there is no need to tell the whereabouts of Concubine Yan."

"Alas... What a mouthful!" After receiving such a result, Gu Xun could only grimace and grin, admitting his mistake.

He originally thought that Yan Lingji might know the contents of Concubine Yan's plan, but who would have thought... that this was actually the case!

Thanks to his big reaction, he was just cheating himself!

 I'm asking for leave tomorrow, I have something to do.
