The medical concubine never thinks of going out of the wall

Chapter 1690 Strength gap
The Murong Xi in front of him was so irritable that Tang Shijiu had never seen before.

Regarding the loss caused by Murong Min's attack, he was quite dissatisfied and complained in words.

"The Tang family's army is very strong and has almost never lost a battle." Although her surname had been taken away by the other party, Tang Nineteen had no resentment towards the Tang family. On the contrary, although she and Tang Rong had no blood relationship, they Better than brothers and sisters, now the Tang family army is basically handed over to Tang Rong. The Tang family army is brave, and Tang Nineteen is also proud of Tang Rong.

However, now she is also very conflicted emotionally.

She could tell that Murong Xi was very worried after losing the battle and suffering heavy losses.

"I'm afraid that the Battle of Jiayuguan will be repeated again."

Back then, it was said that the Northern Qi was defeated in Daliang at Jiayuguan and ceded three cities, and the king of Northern Qi reluctantly sent a pair of children to Daliang as hostages.

In terms of military strength, Northern Qi was not as good as Daliang.

It was hit hard that year, and its military strength was set back decades.

Unlike Northern Qi and Daliang, there were first the Tang Army, the Qi Army, and the Meng Army, all of which were brave troops.

After the Qi family fell, the Qi family army incorporated the Tang family army, and the Tang family army became even stronger.

There is also Tang Yitian, Tang Rong's army is strict, and the Tang family's army is quite powerful. Those who can be sent to garrison frontier fortresses are among the elite.

In contrast, the Northern Qi Dynasty, in the past two years, successively promulgated conscription orders and taxation orders. The conscription orders stipulated that a village should be used as a unit, and five people should form a group, and one person must be recruited as a soldier.

Such a fundamentally unreasonable conscription system has led to the uneven quality of enlisted soldiers, ranging from as small as twelve to as large as sixty, everywhere.

Furthermore, this tax decree has made the people complain even more. The people are struggling to live, but Murong Min thinks he is smart and promulgates the edict to let the states and counties go to work among the people every day, inciting patriotism, brainwashing the people, and making the people feel that it is too much. Pay taxes, and that's building a better country.

People are not fools, how can the country make them patriotic when the country persecutes them.

With the emotion of daring to speak out against the country, there have been uprisings in the past few years in the Northern Qi Dynasty.

However, none of them were of a large scale. Under Murong Min's suppression, they all subsided.

In order to serve as an example to others, the leaders and followers of these uprisings were all executed by Murong Min.

He didn't know, but if he could survive, who would want to live a stable life and revolt and make trouble.

His killing chickens and monkeys is indeed quite effective, but what he can get is not awe, only fear and hatred.

This kind of emotion once spread among the people of Northern Qi, so much so that Murong Xi watched the people getting more and more disappointed with the country, and would often lament with Tang Nineteen that he was not a good emperor.

He was really not at fault, it was Murong Min's fault, but he was the one who was blamed.

For this defeat, he did not know how many accusations and reviling he would receive from the people.

In fact, it was too hard for him to be the emperor.

If the battle of Jiayuguan reappeared back then, the stable situation that Northern Qi had managed to obtain now would be ruthlessly destroyed once again.

Moreover, Tang Nineteen's understanding of Qu Tiange angered him, but there was no good fruit to eat.

"What's the situation now?"

"Brother Huang sent a letter asking this king to send the [-] soldiers stationed at Baihu Station to Jiayuguan to help him."

"What do you think?" At present, the military power is in the hands of Murong Xi, and Murong Xi's thoughts are the most important.
