At dawn, Gu Xiang and Gu Yi rushed to Gu Wenqing's small courtyard and pulled him up from the bed, who was disheveled.
"Fourth brother, it's not good! Get up quickly!"
"Fourth brother, don't sleep, Yufu is gone!"
Gu Wenqing was bleary-eyed, he stayed up all night last night, and saw Yufu took ten people to leave the house quickly before returning to the room.
Tossing and turning back home still couldn't fall asleep, closed his eyes at dawn and felt sleepy, and was yelled by Gu Xiang and Gu Yi.
"Yufu is missing?"
Gu Yi said anxiously: "Yes!"
Gu Wenqing yawned, "Oh."
He wanted to lie back and catch up on sleep, but Gu Xiang and Gu Yi pulled him up by their arms.
"Oh, what do you mean? Fourth brother, do you know where Yufu has gone?"
Gu Wenqing closed her eyes and let them talk, "She went to the border to find her father and elder brother."
With a bang, the two let go of their hands, and Gu Wenqing slammed his back against the ship's plank, frowning in pain.
"Fourth brother, how can you let her go to the border? Father and the others are fighting, how dangerous it is!"
Gu Wenqing adjusted her sleeping position, but still did not open her eyes, "What if we don't let her go? If Kunwu's injury is poisoned, who else can cure it except her?"
"Then we can't let Xiaoyu go alone! At least let us protect her with her!"
Gu Wenqing turned her back, faced the inside of the bed, and waved her hands impatiently, "Okay, you two will stay in the mansion honestly. In a quarter of an hour, I'm going to the accountant again, so let me sleep for a quarter of an hour, okay?" ?”
Gu Yidai wanted to say something, but was dragged out by Gu Xiang.
"Forget it, let's stop making trouble. Didn't you see the bruises under the fourth brother's eyes? He must have stayed up all night."
"Then he won't wake us up, let us go to the border with Xiaoyufu..."
The murmurs of the two went away, and Gu Wenqing suddenly opened her eyes, and punched the wall beside the bed hard!
"Asshole! If it wasn't for the accountant's pile of accounts waiting for me, I would have gone there long ago..."
For several days in a row, across a boundary marker, the Xikun army remained silent.
Standing on the bamboo mountain and looking down, the tents of the 250,000 troops suddenly shrank to only half of their original size.
half…
"Father, of the 250,000 troops of the Liu family, 150,000 were annihilated, and at least tens of thousands were injured and fled. According to the number of military accounts recorded by Yan Zheng and the others, there are still 150,000 people left. Could it be that Emperor Kun The evil spirit is not dead, and the generals are dispatched again?"
"Even if troops are dispatched, there are only tens of thousands of them. With the current number and morale of Xikun's army, there is no chance of winning. Aren't they afraid of death?"
Everyone was discussing, Gu Huaijiang said: "I have been fighting with Xikun for so many years, and I also know about Emperor Kun's temperament. People in Xikun have a good face, especially Kundi. It is because of the tragic defeat in this battle that he can't swallow this breath. But —”
He picked up the numbers that Yan Zheng and the others observed on the bamboo mountain, and shook his head, "According to this number, Emperor Kun only allocated 70,000 to 80,000 people, which can't solve the problem at all. If my father can't figure it out, if he really wants to Shame, why did you only send so few people here?"
Gu Jiuge said: "Could it be that the Xikun Kingdom really doesn't have any extra troops? My child remembers that the Xikun Kingdom said that the country is vast and sparsely populated, the land is barren, and there are even fewer young and strong who can go to the battlefield. If not, Xikun will not make it normal for women to go to the battlefield."
"You're right, but more than that."
Gu Huaijiang glanced at him, "There are three generals in Xikun, the Liu family, the Wang family and the Xie family. Think about it, the Liu family army alone can dispatch 250,000 people, how can the other two families have no one? The land is vast and sparsely populated, yes Compared with the vastness of the land, it is said that behind the Kunlun Mountains to the west of Xikun, there is a large plateau. If that area is included, the land of Xikun is not much smaller than Beili."
Gu Jiuge fell into deep thought.
It seems that they underestimated Xikun. It's not that Emperor Kun couldn't send people, but he only sent 70,000 to 80,000 people on purpose.
Gu Hanmo looked in the tent, and there was a map of the Kyushu and the Three Kingdoms hanging on his back. On the map, Beili had the largest territory.
He suddenly said: "Father, is the population of Beili dense or sparse?"
Gu Huaijiang followed his gaze and smiled, "Weifu doesn't know much about Beili's situation. We can only find some clues from the only history books and national annals. According to Weifu's guess, Beili's population is Dense, maybe even denser than Dongling."
A dense population means a large number of troops.
Several juniors looked at Bei Li on the map at the same time. The entire Kyushu continent was like a big rooster walking with its head held high. Then Bei Li occupied the upper body of the rooster, and the lower body was the division between Xi Kun and Dong Ling.
They have enjoyed the prosperity of poetry and rituals in the imperial capital for a long time, but they have never realized that among the Three Kingdoms, the territory of the Eastern Spirit is the smallest and the terrain is the lowest. It is a blessing that the war has been limited to the border with Xikun for a hundred years.
At the junction of the Three Kingdoms, a conspicuous dot comes into view. Immortal Valley is like the last piece of pure land in the mundane world, far away from the smoke.
Gu Shubai suddenly said: "Father, I know what the Xikun people want to do."
-----Off Topic-----
I drew this map before and posted it in the QQ group~
The mainland of Kyushu is the scope of China now. The northern region is Beili, the southeast coast is Dongling, and the western mountainous area is Xikun~
As for the plateau to the west of Kunlun Mountains, it is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau!
