The next day, Nafu Zhen summoned all the generals to raise the tent to discuss matters.
Because they had received the whereabouts of Rong Suihe and his party the day before, everyone thought they were discussing how to intercept and kill Damu's Prince Mi Zhen.
Who would have thought that Na Fuzhen would immediately propose giving up the pursuit of Rong Suihe.
This caused everyone in the tent to burst into an uproar.
If it weren't for the fact that Nafu had risen from the dust step by step to the position he is today, with a solid foundation and able to handle the situation, someone would have almost asked him in public whether he was scared out of his wits by a junior like Rong Suihe, and continued to show off. His wife and the king's tent were completely slaughtered, and his eldest son and other heirs fell into the hands of the other party, and they didn't dare to catch up
Although no one said anything, the doubts and disappointment towards Nafu Zhen were clearly revealed in the glances they looked at each other.
"Mi Zhen is a cunning person, but this time I was so angry that I fell into his trap." Na Fuzhen stood at the top and saw their expressions clearly, but these were what he expected. The scene was not frightening. After slowly explaining his speculations last night, he said, "The grassland is vast, and Mi Zhen and his party are a lot less, but not a lot. Even if their traces are found now, There is no way to guarantee that no one will escape, let alone that this person is not Mi Zhen!"
"The most important thing is that he can still afford to lose two thousand fine knights."
"If these two thousand fine knights have been treated as abandoned by him since they first sneaked into the grassland, then it is very likely that this person will have parted ways with him now!"
"What the scouts found right now is more of a bait than a clue."
"Even if Mi Zhen is still in the army, this person is not an ordinary nobleman of the Mu Kingdom. His martial arts skills and experience of sleeping in the open air are all top-notch... An ordinary nobleman of the Mu Kingdom, let alone being in the wilderness, is doing well. If you stay in a deep house, you will inevitably need a group of people around you."
"He has honed his skills due to his experiences in childhood and adolescence... In a chaotic battle, he may not be able to lead him alone!"
"In short, we have given up on attacking Damu and come to the grassland to intercept him. In fact, we are not sure of success."
"If Ruoguo fails, Ruoguo will help him suppress the prestige of Mu's current court, but it will increase his reputation in Mu!"
Na Fuzhen looked around the camp that was gradually getting quieter and said slowly, "That's why I decided to stop chasing Mi Zhen, return to the south, and continue to attack Mu!"
He raised his hand and ordered someone to bring up the map, "And this time the troops are no longer divided into two groups, but they join forces with Gu Ailu to go straight down from the northern border, pointing the sword at Chang'an, without sealing the sword along the way!"
“Let’s just say to the outside world that this is Mi Zhen’s revenge for massacring my King Ruru’s tent!!!”
"We must conquer Chang'an and drag the Queen Mother, Queen, and other noble daughters of the Mu Kingdom to death, thinking that He Dun will be buried with him!!!"
Nafu Zhen's decision was quickly recognized by a group of people, and was spread to the country of Damu as quickly as possible.
Chang'an is shocked!
"Is he crazy?! Or does he not want to live anymore?!" Meng Guiyu trembled with anger, banged the desk in front of him, and almost hysterically asked his brother Meng Guihan, "That Fu If we really go south together with Bone Love Deer, if we calculate the time, we will reach Chang'an City in half a month at most!!!"
"With Damu's current situation, even if we immediately get the Holy Order and go south to escape, where will we hide along the way?!"
Originally, Damu's most powerful force was the Northern Xinjiang Army. However, due to the defection of former commander Meng Boqin to Ruru, it was completely destroyed.
Secondly, because the Southern Xinjiang Army has no strong enemies, it has never been taken seriously and has never excelled. The Western Xinjiang Army has also been demoralized by the peaceful years and is recognized as corrupt.
Even though the Western Xinjiang Army was greatly repaired after it came into the hands of Rong Suihe, its combat effectiveness was still not optimistic because the days were too short.
As for the coastal navy, they are all specialized in water warfare. How can we not discount them if they are used as ordinary soldiers
As for the imperial army in Meng Guiyu's hands, not to mention that it is not complete at all now, at least nearly half of it was taken away by Tao Tao. This kind of army has not seen serious battles for many generations, and its experience on the battlefield so far has been gained through internal fighting. The troops that came out... No matter how optimistic Meng Guiyu was, he couldn't expect them to withstand Ruru Xinjun's personal expedition!
Originally, if it was just the Bone Love Deer going south, Meng Guiyu counted the opponent's troops and retreated all the way consciously. By the time they were almost in the south of the Yangtze River, the Bone Love Deer would have been almost exhausted and could not continue to invade south.
The most important thing is that at that time Ruru unreasonably attacked Damu, and the whole country was excited.
At this moment, Ruru is clinging to Rong Suihe's act of slaughtering the king's tent, but it is Ruru's turn to take revenge filled with grief and indignation!
He is a proud and powerful general, and with his morale available...how can he fight this
For Meng Guiyu personally, if he cannot defend the south of the Yangtze River and continues to go south, if he is close to the south, he will have to take shelter from the Southern Xinjiang Army!
The Southern Xinjiang Army has always been on good terms with Rong Suihe, and even Rong Suihe's wife and children are now being protected by the Southern Xinjiang Army.
How is this situation different from letting him out? !
"Sixth brother, could this be Mi Zhen's plan? Isn't it impossible?" Meng Guihan has always followed his brother to do things. He always does what Meng Guiyu says. When he heard this, his face turned slightly. Bai, let alone comforting Meng Guiyu, was even more panicked, "He... He is not the roundworm in Fuzhen's belly. He killed Fuzhen's married wife, Ruru's Kehe Dun, how... How could you still expect Na Fu to let him go, but instead take it out on the innocent Chang'an?!"
Both of them were in chaos. Inside the palace, Queen Mother Meng and Empress Dowager Meng were shocked when they heard the news!
The Queen Mother immediately called Chi Zuosi and sent someone to summon Meng Guiyu to ask if he should evacuate immediately.
After all, Ruru’s new Khan wanted to kill her and the queen’s aunt and nephew by name to pay homage to his Kehe Dun!
How dare the Queen Mother continue to stay in Chang'an under such circumstances
"What kind of evil have you done?" After the Empress Dowager Meng ordered Chi Zuosi, she went to Wangchun Palace to visit Empress Meng in person. As soon as they met, she cried without waiting for the empress to salute, "It's not easy for you to become pregnant, and you are like this." Things! Not to mention Gui Yu's unpredictable mind now, will he really take our safety to heart? Even if he does take it to heart... You are twins now, how can you suffer? Drive to the south, go here It’s a long journey, and who knows what troubles there may be on the way…”
As he cried, he began to wonder, "Did Mi Zhen do it on purpose? He knew that His Majesty would have a prince, and that his nephew could not usurp the throne, so he deliberately killed Ruru's Kehe Dun to let Na Fuzhen vent his anger. Our aunt and nephew...he is so vicious!!!"
Queen Meng was also in a state of confusion at the moment, and it took a while before she remembered to comfort the Queen Mother.
It’s just that at this time, most of the words of comfort are pale and feeble. After thinking about it, I can only say: "Auntie, Sixth Brother’s position is not yet stable, and it is impossible for him to abandon us! Whether it is fighting or leaving, how could he not take it?" What’s the idea? He was able to go from being an unknown disciple of the Meng family to being the powerful one he is today, so naturally it’s not all a failure... Let’s not panic at this moment, just listen to him!”
But the Queen Mother Meng and Meng Guiyu were too harsh to separate each other before. The Queen Mother could not trust Meng Guiyu at this time. Even when she couldn't do without Meng Guiyu's support and protection, she hated her nephew even more.
I cried in Wangchun Palace for a long time before leaving full of melancholy.
At this time, the queen was very upset and felt that she should not have allowed Lu Yin and Lu Xin to commit suicide that day.
"I should have known things would turn out like this..." She bit her lip and thought to herself, "If Xianyin and the others are still here, how could Meng Guiyu have the guts to touch them?"
Because Meng Guiyu's biggest support was the military power of the Imperial Army, which was only second. In the final analysis, it was Emperor Xuanjing who held the emperor hostage to order the world.
As for the current situation, Nafu Zhen went south with hatred, and Damu's current war and chaos were full of contradictions, which could not be said to be a disaster for the country!
All the glory, wealth, status and power of Meng Guiyu are still attached to the imperial power of Damu.
If Damu is gone, who is he
By then, Meng Boqin, who was even coaxed by him to defect to Ruru, turned out to be a talented man who understood current affairs.
How could he accept this
Therefore, if Xiyin and others were here at this moment, Meng Guiyu would contact Rong Suihe through them and try to negotiate or something, even if he was reluctant.
Even if it doesn't work, he will keep them for future use... And Queen Meng also has an extra trump card, which is good no matter what.
It's just that they committed suicide in front of the queen with every sound and heart. Although Meng Li and the other three people were not in the presence of the queen because of their differences between men and women, and they only heard about their situation occasionally, they were probably gone.
The queen was frightened and regretful. She was wandering around, but the palace servants reported that Meng Guiyu had come.
The queen had some vague guesses about her cousin's purpose at this moment. After the brother and sister met, Meng Guiyu waved back, and she didn't even have time to say anything. She asked directly: "What on earth does Mi Zhen want to do?!"
Although she had already guessed that her cousin was aware of the truth about her pregnancy, the queen still tried to hide it instinctively and pretended to be surprised: "Brother Six, are you saying that Mi Zhen did this on purpose? He... He is so brave. !”
"Aren't you afraid that people in the world will despise him if he does something that offends people like this?!"
"Pah!" Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, he received a heavy scratch on his face!
Meng Guiyu struck very hard, almost no lighter than the night he killed Concubine Shu. The blow hit the defenseless Queen Meng so hard that she spun around for a long time before she could stand still. She covered her numb cheeks and felt the sound in her ears. There was a buzzing sound, and the queen calmed down for a while, then turned her head in disbelief to look at her cousin who had always been smiling and kind to her.
There was no expression on Marquis Chongxin's face, and he looked at her calmly, as if the slap just now had nothing to do with him.
The brother and sister looked at each other for a while, and then he repeated calmly: "What exactly does Mi Zhen want to do?"
"...I don't know." Queen Meng's heart was cold. At this time, she didn't even have much resentment towards Meng Guiyu. It wasn't because she was magnanimous or knew she was wrong, but because of the huge panic and fear that seized her heart. So much so that she had no intention of thinking about revenge and curses, she was just helpless and confused.
This was actually a true answer, but Meng Guiyu grabbed her throat with his backhand and suddenly pushed her back seven or eight steps. Her back was pressed against the pillar of the palace. He grabbed her throat and asked coldly: " Don’t you know? You and Shengxi, Rong Suihe’s most trusted and trusted confidant, have children, so you don’t know Rong Suihe’s plan?!”
His eyes moved down and landed on Queen Meng's lower abdomen that had not yet swelled significantly, "Na Fuzhen claimed that he would tie you and your aunt behind a horse and drag them to death to comfort his Ke He Dun!"
"What do you think I will do if you continue to prevaricate and perfuse me?"
"I'm not Na Fuzhen, I'm not as good at riding as him."
"I don't have the patience to go outside for this kind of family scandal!"
"So I brought a knife."
"Either you answer me honestly, or... I will use a knife to dig out this evil thing in your belly!!!"
"Fourteen, don't tell me that my brother won't give you a way to survive... you can choose for yourself!!!"
