Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 295

June nineteenth.

A group of warriors from Yushui County with a heart of revenge brazenly crossed the border and rushed to a village near the border of Siyou County to carry out bloody revenge, slaughtering the entire village.

Logically speaking, the people of Siyou County are also from Izumo, even if it is revenge, they should not kill themselves.

But these people don't care.

Dazzled by hatred, the warriors thought that the Izumo people living under the Southern Border Protectorate were traitors to the kingdom, and they were even more hateful than the Dagan people.

Even more deserving of death.

…………

The next day,

As the news spread, report to the Southern Border Protectorate.

Qianyuan was "furious", and immediately sent an order to Di Qing, the commander of the Yantian Corps guarding Siyou County, to arrest the perpetrators and bring justice to the people who were killed.

at the same time,

Qian Yuan reported the matter to the imperial court, accusing the Izumo Kingdom of blatantly tearing up the covenant with the empire, which is basically despising the empire, and asked the imperial court to expel the Izumo Kingdom's envoys stationed in the capital of God, and terminate communication with the Izumo Kingdom.

The wording is extremely strong.

On the same day, Di Qing, the leader of the Yantian Corps, personally commanded the first and third divisions of the Yantian Corps stationed in Siyou County, crossed the border, and brazenly entered Yushui County under the banner of catching murderers.

The [-]th and [-]th Divisions of the Izumo Army stationed in Yushui County could not remain indifferent to the invasion of the Yantian Corps. Coupled with the previous instigation of the black guards, they exploded immediately.

The two armies fought in Yushui County, announcing the coming of war!
…………

Izumo country, the royal palace.

"Conspiracy, this is a complete conspiracy."

"Child Qianyuan, it's unreasonable!"

King Izumo, who got the news, was furious and terrified at the same time. He announced that the kingdom had entered a state of emergency war and dispatched troops to condemn the generals.

On the one hand, they urgently sent people to contact the envoys stationed in Shendu, protested the matter to the Dagan court, and asked the new emperor Qianshen to mediate the matter.

King Izumo even proposed that he hoped that when it was ineffective to dissuade King Qin from retreating, Dagan could send troops to stop King Qin's invasion.

King Izumo also presented the same request to his closest ally, King Ganke of Chu, and promised a lot of extremely attractive conditions.

The purpose is to hope that the King of Chu's army can go south as soon as possible.

…………

June 21,
The second and third divisions of the Izumo Army stationed in Izumo County were ordered to set off to Yushui County for reinforcements to snipe the invading Summer Corps.

In order to prevent the situation from expanding, King Izumo didn't even have the confidence to let the army invade Siyou County, which had no troops stationed at this time. He just wanted to drive the enemy out of the country.

How aggrieved.

At this moment, Luo Mengli, the Queen of Luoyun, suddenly publicly stated her position, expressing that for the shame of being invaded by the Izumo Army, she decided to take equal revenge on the Izumo Kingdom.

Then, the [-] Chaoge troops stationed at the border brazenly crossed the border and invaded the Izumo country.

Not only that, the Second Division of the Yantian Corps led by Yue Yun also mixed in with the Chaoge Army and marched towards Izumo City together.

It turned out that before this, Yue Yun's tribe had already passed the bridge and assembled in Luoyun Kingdom.

In line with what King Izumo said: "Everything is premeditated."

Knowing that Luoyun Kingdom invaded, Izumo King was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and had to urgently order the second and third divisions that had just started to stop going north and go south instead.

The current King of Izumo no longer cares about Yushui County. He only hopes that Daqian can reply as soon as possible and send troops to relieve Yushui County.

…………

The capital of God, the imperial palace.

Qianyuan's memorial and the envoys of Izumo Kingdom almost entered the palace one after another.

The new emperor Ganshen realized the seriousness of the matter, and after sending the envoys away, he immediately summoned Prime Minister Xu Kang and the Minister of War to discuss matters in the palace.

"Is it true that warriors from the Izumo Kingdom crossed the border to slaughter villages?" Prime Minister Xu Kang was a decent man, had a good reputation in officialdom, and was the most cautious in handling matters.

The new emperor Gan Shen said: "Looking at what the king of Qin said in the memorial, and the emissary of the Izumo Kingdom's words flashing about this matter just now, it is probably true."

There was silence in the imperial study room.

The people present are all human beings, knowing that even if this matter is true, it would be too strange.

Not to mention anything else, as soon as the massacre of the village happened, the Yantian Corps entered Yushui County the next day, and even the food and supplies were prepared, which was obviously premeditated.

Moreover, with just a few warriors, how did they cross the border guarded by the Yantian Corps?And how did he manage to escape back to Yushui County as if nothing had happened while massacring the village under the noses of the army?

The Yantian Corps really want such a dish,
It is estimated that the first thing Qian Yuan did was to remove Di Qing from his post.

The traces of planning the whole thing were too obvious.

But everyone knows that the problem is that no one has any evidence that Qianyuan planned this matter.

"It's going to be difficult."

The wrinkles on Xu Kang's forehead were crowded together, "Since Siyou County is under the rule of the King of Qin, the people of Siyou County are the people of the empire, and it is unjustifiable to be slaughtered by the Izumo Kingdom."

"Who said it wasn't."

The new emperor Qian Shenzheng was distressed by this. He took precautions against everything. He never thought that Qianyuan would resort to such cruel methods in order to provoke a war.

Is this still the fifteenth prince? !
Xu Kangdao: "For the present plan, His Majesty can only ask the King of Qin to suspend military operations temporarily, and then the imperial court will send imperial envoys to thoroughly investigate the matter, so as to give the King of Qin justice."

The new emperor's face turned dark, and he was very worried whether Qian Yuan would listen to his persuasion.

In case of rejection,
Isn't that embarrassing?
Xu Kang seemed to know the new emperor's thoughts and added: "Of course, in your reply to King Qin, Your Majesty can point out in a subtle way that if King Qin acts recklessly, the court will never sit idly by and watch."

This means to use force.

"That's the only way to go." The new emperor nodded and looked at the war spirit, "Order, let the Chu king's army get ready."

"promise!"

The fighting spirit is young, but he never speaks much.

…………

The new emperor's plan was good, but unfortunately he underestimated Qianyuan's determination to annex the Izumo Kingdom, and also underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Yantian Corps.

Whether it was the memorial from Qianyuan or the news from Izumo Kingdom, it was already two days after it reached the gods.It will take another two days on the road for the decree of God's capital to reach Qin Wang's mansion.

This is already expedited.

And in these short four days, the battle of Yushui County has quietly ended.

Di Qing did not disappoint Qian Yuan.

After the change of equipment, the combat power of the Summer Corps increased by more than [-]%. Facing the fourth and fifth divisions of the Izumo Army that had only been rebuilt and formed for less than a year, it could be described as overwhelming.

The two sides are not in the same order of magnitude at all.

Whether it was a siege or an encounter in the wild, as soon as the two sides came into contact, the Izumo army hadn't realized what happened, and their own battle formation was smashed to pieces by the Yantian Corps.

crush,

Completely crushed.

Under this situation, Di Qing defeated the Izumo Army in only three days.Then it took another day to complete the occupation of the entire Yushui County.

Among them is Kuaiji Pass, the only land passage connecting Daqian and Izumo.

At this time, even if the imperial court wanted to send the King of Chu army south to rescue the siege, it would be impossible, unless they first broke through the heavily guarded Kuaiji Pass.

I'm afraid the king of Chu army doesn't have the guts yet.

It was under such circumstances that Qian Yuan, who was still in Zhaoyao City, received a mediation order from the court, which was both a plea and an implicit threat from the new emperor.

"It came pretty fast, but it's a pity it's still too late."

Qian Yuan smiled, and said to the internal supervisor who delivered the decree: "Please tell your majesty, father-in-law, that I obey the imperial court's decree, so I will give an order to the front line to stop the pursuit."

"Your Highness is wise!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

The inner eunuch is considered number one in the palace, and when he comes down to the local area, he is even more majestic. Even the county guard has to be courteous and respectful when he sees him.It's just that facing Qian Yuan, the real powerful vassal, he couldn't shake his prestige at all, and he had to be careful to accompany his smiling face, for fear of making Qian Yuan unhappy.

The eunuch was also very happy about Qian Yuan's straightforwardness, he was finally able to do business.

As for the secret fight between His Majesty and the King of Qin, he is determined not to dare, nor is he qualified to participate in it. It is better to be a sounding board honestly.

…………

After sending away the eunuch who delivered the decree, Shi Liu Daoning, the head of the palace, asked puzzledly: "Your Highness, do you really want to stop the war? Isn't there still Izumo County that hasn't been taken?"

Liu Daoning sat in the position of Changshi for five or six years, so he was really Qianyuan's confidant and direct descendant.

Qian Yuan smiled and said: "No hurry. After taking down Yushui County and cutting off the connection between Izumo Kingdom and the empire, Izumo Kingdom will become a grasshopper without feet, and it will never be able to jump again."

"I still don't understand. Keeping the Izumo country will be a disaster after all." In Liu Daoning's impression, His Highness is not a person who is easily satisfied.

There is no reason to say that the fat that reaches the mouth is gone.

"Since the imperial court came forward to mediate, we still have to give this face. However, to destroy a country, you don't necessarily have to resort to war, understand?" Qian Yuan patiently explained.

Liu Daoning was thoughtful.
