Jinan returned to the harem angrily, glanced at the queen who greeted him at the palace gate, and walked inside without saying a word.
Shao Dianrong turned around and followed the king silently until he entered the room and sat down. Then she waved the palace maid away and came behind him to massage her head and neck and asked, "Why is your Majesty so upset?"
Jinan took a deep breath and said: "Dai Gu was defeated, and he was defeated again by the unknown Ding Kui! Are all the generals in our country just losers?"
Shaodianrong let go of his hand, turned to one side and knelt down, saying: "It's all my fault, I really underestimated Shaodianguo and Ding Kui, which led to the repeated defeats of the Northern Route Army. Please punish me."
The frustrated king leaned back and moved his mouth but said nothing. He thought for a while and then said: "That was Gu's decision. You cannot be blamed for any consequences; generals are useless, no matter who makes it."
Decisions can only end in failure.”
Dai Kun was the commander-in-chief of his country's Northern Route Army, and it was he who commanded the First and First North Army Corps to attack Nanping County.
Recently, he planned a new operation to spread suspicions to confuse the Shaodian Army, secretly dispatched the Northern First Army Corps to prepare for a surprise attack on Daling County, and asked the Northern Second Army Corps to ambush on the border of Nanping County.
They were originally going to catch Shaodian's army by surprise, but Ding Kui led his army suddenly appeared behind the Second North Army Corps. He charged to the vicinity of the commander's flag of the Second North Army Corps with a single charge, and then Yi Sheng led the 20th Army Corps to fight out from the front.
The Second Northern Army Corps was attacked from both sides by the Shaodian Army and had to rush to fight, but it did not last long before being defeated.
The Northern First Army Corps received the news in time and hurriedly withdrew from Daling County. The retreat was almost blocked by the Shaodian Army.
Daigu gathered the defeated Northern Second Army, merged with the Northern First Army, and continued to retreat until they rested a hundred miles away from the border.
Shaodian Rong knew the news from the front line, so he said: "Shaodian Protector's family is a rare master knight, and Ding Kui is the second in history.
His return to the Eighth Army has greatly boosted morale. Now that he has become unstoppable, I can only see that it is best for us to stay away from the edge for the time being."
"A young man in his twenties actually wants to force his country, which is so huge, to avoid its edge?" Jinan Huode stood up, spread his arms and shouted, "Where is the face of my country? Where is the face of the few?"
"Shao Dianyong used counterintuitive tactics. Once the capital city becomes suspicious of Ding Kui, he will naturally help us eliminate a powerful enemy without any bloodshed." The queen reached out and grabbed the king's arm.
"Do you really want to use such methods to deal with a glorious family?" Jinan relaxed the tense muscles in his body.
"It's not us who wants to use it, it's Shao Dianyong who wants to use it. In order to get our help, he won't hesitate to use any means."
"Does our country want to support such a rebellious person?" Jinan's voice gradually became deeper.
"In fact, the fourth brother was suspected of conspiring to seize the throne and forced the eldest brother to death. Otherwise, Shao Dianyong could inherit the throne now. Strictly speaking, he is not a rebel." Shao Dianyong tried his best to persuade the people in power in his country.
"Shaodian didn't take care of his own family affairs, which is why the whole country was in chaos. How can we govern the country if we can't take care of our own family? You have to take care of your own family affairs." A voice suddenly sounded in Jinan's ear.
He is naturally familiar with the owner of the voice, a supreme being in his country. There is a warning in this sentence, and he must pay attention to it.
"You should not interfere in matters related to Shaodian Kingdom in the future. Prince Haichao will take over with full authority. Also, warn Jiman not to cause trouble to our country again." He sat down slumped, "Next, think carefully about how to deal with it.
Meng Guo."
The focus of his family affairs is Shaodianrong, and Jiman, the first heir to the throne, is her biological son. They are all closely related to Shaodianguo. The ancestor's warning will undoubtedly fall on these two people.
What Shao Dianrong was worried about finally happened.
The chaos in the Shaodian Kingdom is both an opportunity and a risk for her. If she operates it well, she can benefit from it and help Jiman obtain the position of crown prince; if not, it may be in vain and arouse the suspicion of her family.
The change in Jinan's attitude showed that her plan for Shaodian Kingdom was a complete failure. Jiman was gradually moving away from the crown prince position, and the culprit of this serious consequence was Ding Kui.
At this time, Ding Kui was flying over Shanxi City, and the 74th and 75th Divisions were ordered to sack the city.
Shanxi is located in Beiluan County, Jiangzhou, Jiguo. It crosses the border between the two countries from Nanping County, Shaodian State, and can be reached by walking more than 70 miles south. It is one of the cities closer to Shaodian State.
Flying next to Ding Kui was Ao Yan. Since Ding Kui had many female companions on this expedition, he did not choose to let Ao Yu follow him.
It's not that he doesn't want to bring all the master-level followers, because doing so will easily offend the master-level experts of his own country. How can the Ding family compare with his own country.
Fighting abroad and defending the homeland are two different concepts. There are so few masters in Nanqiu County in our country, but it does not mean that there are also so few in the homeland. It is unrealistic for Ding Kui to rely on high-end combat power to win in his own country.
"Why don't you kill those ants?" Ao Yan discovered that Shaodian's army only robbed but did not kill. The Dragon Clan was used to slaughtering them all during battles.
"As long as they do not hinder our army's operations, there is no need to kill them. Excessive murderous intent will affect luck."
"What is luck?"
"Uh," Ding Kui touched his chin, "Luck is one of the rules of heaven and earth. I can't explain exactly what it is." He answered frankly.
"What attributes? Life-based?" Ao Yan did not let go of the knowledge about the rules of heaven and earth.
"Probably, I'm not sure. It should be produced by life activities, used to affect life activities, and has the characteristics of the life system." Ding Kui has Tai Shugong's notes and has a little understanding of the life system.
"Is it related to what you said last time?"
"There is a certain correlation. Dragons also have good luck and bad luck. Your cousin's luck is not as good as yours. It has a lot to do with the last time he ate a human."
"That idiot, what's so delicious about humans? There are a lot of delicious monsters in the sea." Ao Yan complained mercilessly to Ao Yu.
"Ahem, cough, cough. Once you get here, you don't have to go too far for reconnaissance. You can follow me."
Ding Kui had no intention of occupying his own country's cities, conquering a city, grabbing the belongings and then leaving, and not staying in one place for a long time.
After leaving Shanxi City, he led his army to advance westward, setting up a posture to invade Beiping Prefecture adjacent to Zhongwang Prefecture.
Dai Gu had a headache, mainly because he didn't know where the main force of Shaodian's Eighth Army was. The two enemy divisions fled to Beiping Prefecture without causing much harm. The North and Central Route Army was stationed there, and they met Ding Kui.
You can defeat it all.
If the entire Eighth Army marches into Beiping Prefecture, the North Central Route Army will be greatly threatened, and the troops that entered Nanping County to help Shaodian Yong will be forced to turn around and deal with the Eighth Army.
"Is Ding Kui's move false or true?" Dai Ku summoned his staff to discuss it overnight.
