The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Pingguo, Fragrant River City.

This is the capital of Pingguo.

As a vassal state adjacent to Hengguo, after Hengguo was captured by the enemy, this place was bound to be the enemy's next target.

However, the force is limited, and if the troops are divided and stick to the defense, it will only give the enemy a chance to break through. After several discussions, they decided to retreat.

Deploying troops in the Xianghe area can ensure the safety of this place and wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

Pingguo can no longer be lost, this is the consensus of all.

Such a vassal state is captured by the enemy, and the negative impact is extremely serious...

Pingguo is stepping up preparations. While waiting for the reinforcements to arrive, they are also stepping up their preparations for the recruitment!

They get news.

The enemy army has set off, and you can tell by looking at their direction that the goal is Pingguo.

This surprised them a bit.

It has been snowing for many days, the snow is deep, and the climate is cold. How can you launch an attack at this time?

This made many people nervous.

However, bad news followed.

According to the information, Yong Wang Xiang Chong, who had originally prepared 20 troops to support him, could not come.

Because enemy troops appeared in Yongguo, and all of them were cavalry, they went deep into the hinterland, killing and invading wantonly in the territory.

I don't know how many people there are, and I don't know how many shares there are. In short, it is very troublesome.

King Yong is exhausted, how can he support him?

There are many more cases like this.

Based on the intelligence gathered by all parties, the enemy troops have been fully mobilized, moving in different directions, and a full-scale counterattack has begun!

Under such circumstances, there was only one reinforcement army that could come, and it was led by Yuan King Xiangqi.

Yuan State is the second largest vassal state after Heng State in the northwest of Chu State, and of course it is the first now.

The current king of Ping, Xiang Zhirong, and Duguxin of Shangzhu Kingdom greeted him outside the city in person.

Xiang Zhirong was the eldest son of King Ping Xiang Fu. According to the eldest son succession system, after Xiang Fu died, he inherited the throne in line.

"Why don't you come, it's really cold today."

Xiang Zhirong tightened his clothes, complaining impatiently.

"Master Shangzhu, there's no need for us to do this, let's get in the car and wait."

"Needed."

Dugu Xin said calmly: "Now the enemy country is attacking in an all-round way, and many princes and kings cannot support it. It is very rare for King Yuan to come. We should value him, and his strength is also very strong."

"I don't think it's impossible to support, but that I don't want to support."

Xiang Zhirong opened his mouth and said: "The military restriction order has been lifted, and all the princes and kings are stepping up to expand their strength. Who will come to the front line to wade into this troubled water? They are clearly looking for excuses!"

Dugu Xin did not speak.

How could he not understand the situation?

Since fighting the enemy, countless troops have been lost so far, which shocked many princes and kings.

Since he came to the front line, he would face a war, and it was very likely that his troops would be exhausted.

Who can?

As long as there is a legitimate reason, they will definitely not support...

"So this shows the great righteousness of King Yuan. Not everyone can understand the truth of the dead lips and the cold teeth."

Dugu Xin said: "You have just inherited the throne, you don't want to lose it immediately, do you?"

"That's natural!"

Xiang Zhirong hurriedly said: "Lord Zhu, please don't worry, other princes dare not say it, but I promise that Ping will do its best to stop the enemy, and this king will also fully cooperate with you."

He was busy expressing his opinion.

Because he knew very well that now that Pingguo had become the main target of the enemy's attack, he had to go all out!

It was hard for him to succeed to the throne, and the Pingguo would be gone without warming his butt, of course he couldn't accept it.

Downtrodden princes and kings are not as good as dogs, and King Heng is a lesson from the past.

Xiang Zhirong's attitude corrected immediately, and he stopped complaining.

Duguxin was not talking, he knew Xiang Zhirong's weakness very well, and he could be cured with just a few words.

Xiang Zhirong doesn't have much talent, and he can only rely on him if he wants to keep Pingguo...

After waiting like this for a short time, a large-scale army appeared in the eyes, and it was so dark that the end could not be seen at a glance.

Yuan Wangxiang has arrived!

"There are so many people, King Yuan is really interesting!"

Xiang Zhirong was very excited, and with reinforcements, there was hope of holding on.

However, Dugu Xin's complexion is not good.

As the distance got closer, he could see clearly what the army here looked like.

Maybe it can't be called an army. There is no neat formation, it looks messy, and the weapons and armor are not uniform. This is not a regular army at all.

It is very likely that the stragglers recruited temporarily by Xiang Qi pulled over.

His purpose may not be pure support, it should be to train soldiers!

Actual combat is the best way to train soldiers.

Dugu Xin's face was gloomy, could it be that these people really don't understand the reason why their lips are dead and their teeth are cold?
