Now even Eunuch Hua knows that what Li Guo needs most is time, but when he encounters a "dumb fool" like Xia Wang Dou Jiande, it is clear that there is no hope and he would rather die than surrender, which is really a headache!
Seriously speaking, Xia Wang Dou Jiande is the father-in-law of Li Wang Wuxin after all, so the officials of Li Kingdom naturally have to be careful!
"Well! Heroes emerge from troubled times, and King Xia is a typical representative of this saying. He is a hero created by the times. It is expected that a true hero would rather die than surrender!"
Wu Xin frowned and thought for a moment, shook his head and sighed.
Compared with various anti-kings, Xia King Dou Jiande was born in the Sui army. He was poor in his early years but was generous and helpful. He was praised by his fellow villagers for his chivalrous demeanor, kindness to others and good at accepting advice. He was one of the many anti-kings.
, the anti-king with the best reputation.
From the perspective of Li Wang Wuxin, Dou Jiande and Du Fuwei are somewhat similar. However, Dou Jiande has a much better reputation than Du Fuwei. He has always been a positive image in life, and then suppressed rebellions, uprisings, and wiped out all kinds of bandits until he founded the Xia Kingdom.
, who dominates Hebei, is a hero who rises along the lines of troubled times.
Adhering to "justice", he is a true hero in troubled times.
Because of this, perhaps birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
There were no ups and downs in the Xia Kingdom. Dou Jiande served as a minister and general, and he basically surrendered to him sincerely and was loyal. Dou Jiande decided that he would rather die than surrender, and the ministers of the Xia Kingdom also followed suit.
I have a headache!
Compared to King Li Mi of Wei, King Li Yuan of Tang, King Luo Yi of Yan and other anti-kings, Wu Xin was more willing to accept King Dou Jiande of Xia, and he was more trusting and at ease. However, Dou Jiande would rather die than surrender, so why bother?!
"Then..." Eunuch Hua asked cautiously with a wry smile.
Although Dou Jiande insists on his "kingly demeanor", which is admirable, but he does it knowingly that he cannot do anything, but he has harmed many people.
To put it nicely, it means taking a firm stand and would rather die than surrender; to put it harshly, it means being stubborn and selfish.
Looking at it from a secular and realistic perspective, it is probably that Xia Wang Dou Jiande felt that his life was worth his while, and he died generously and did not want to be inferior to others.
"People's hearts are full of emotions, and things are helpless! We don't have much time. Since King Xia insists, let's grant him..."
Wu Xin frowned, shook his head, and ordered with some regret.
"Yes!" Hua Gonggong bowed and responded.
Wu Xin's words basically sentenced Xia King Dou Jiande to death.
If nothing unexpected happened, Xia King Dou Jiande caused countless casualties to the Li army because of his persistence. The Li country would not easily accept Dou Jiande's surrender, otherwise how would he explain to the countless Li army who died in battle?!
Kill one thousand enemies and suffer eight hundred losses.
Dou Jiande would rather die than surrender, and let the Li army rush to the capital of Xia Kingdom. He waited for the Li army to enter the city and enter the palace. He wanted to surrender at the last moment. He wanted to follow the example of King Wei, King Tang, etc., surrender as a king, and be safe.
Gong, Xiaoyaohou, etc.
Is there anything so cheap in the world?
Not to mention that Dou Jiande is Li Wang's father-in-law, even Li Wang's biological father is useless. So what do countless Li troops think?
War is a historical game, but it is not played like this...
War is the most luxurious and cruel game in the world, as well as the most realistic and fair game.
…
Xia Kingdom, Bohai County, Bohai County City, the capital of Xia Kingdom.
Bohai County is located on the north bank of the Mother River and borders the Bohai Sea to the east. It is a densely populated area with a prosperous economy, politics, and military. The area is not large, but there are countless cities.
Just near Bohai County, there are more than a dozen huge cities or large cities such as Yangxin, Huimin, Qingyun, Leling, Rao'an, etc. The density is frighteningly high. Therefore, the Xia Kingdom designated Bohai County as its capital.
It was renamed Le Shou City.
Nowadays, the special situation in Bohai County has become Dou Jiande's main basis for preferring death rather than surrender.
Li Guo is now racing against time to completely capture Bohai County and destroy Xia State, but it is not easy.
Dou Jiande is confident that he can let Li Jun destroy Xia Kingdom without losing a few teeth. In this case, Li Jun will probably not insist on destroying Xia Kingdom!
"Father! Now that the Wei Kingdom has surrendered, the Li army has crossed the river, and Hebei is in danger. The Xia Kingdom has little to rely on. This place has been surrounded by three sides of the Li army, and there are Beiyan tigers in the north. Now that things have come to this, why should my father be so stubborn? Surrender as soon as possible.
, wouldn’t it be nice to live out your old age as a prince and enjoy glory and wealth?”
Dou Hongxian, the concubine of the Li Kingdom, summoned Xia King Dou Jiande to no avail. With the help of the Gods and Demons Mansion, she personally rushed to Leshou and gave her heartfelt advice.
"What do you think, woman! How can you create the Xia Kingdom and dominate Hebei alone? How can you say that it is easy for someone to do so?"
Dou Jiande was quite haggard, his eyes were red, and his face was extremely ugly. He stared at Dou Hongxian and shouted. He paused and continued confidently:
"Li Guo is indeed powerful now, but don't treat the people of the world as fools. King Li used his concubine Li Xiuning to watch the war between Sui and Tang Dynasties, reap the benefits, and take the opportunity to conquer Wei and Xia, and even Northern Yan, and then
If you continue to plot against the Sui and Tang Dynasties, don’t think you can’t see it..."
"So what? The most important thing is you. My father has persisted until now. Now that Li Jun is besieging him from three directions, our country will definitely not be able to stop it. What are you trying to do?"
Dou Hongxian's breathing intensified, and he was a little angry and asked out of breath.
"What are you trying to do? Just because you don't want to ruin the reputation of the country that you have worked hard for half your life!"
Dou Jiande's eyes widened and he raised his voice and shouted. He paused and continued with a sneer:
"After the Battle of Jinhu, our country's vitality has indeed been severely damaged and it is not as good as before. However, if you really think that our country is easy to bully, then King Li is wrong. If you want to destroy our country, you must be prepared to lose the Eastern Capital and the Hegemony Secretary (Hangu)
Mentally prepare yourself for the best time (areas inside and outside the pass)! If you don’t break a few teeth of the Lijun, I will have wasted half of my life..."
"This...why bother with this?" Dou Hongxian suddenly felt helpless and smiled bitterly, and looked to his mother, Queen Cao, for help.
The dignified and beautiful Queen Cao sighed secretly and reminded calmly: "My king... he who knows the current affairs is a hero! As long as there is a red line, King Li will never treat my king badly. Now that the situation is over, what can we do if we persist to the end? At most
It’s just a matter of lingering and delaying for a while longer!”
"Women's opinion! What the hell do you know? Which one is more important in King Li's heart, Dongdu or Bohai? After knowing that our country is not easy to deal with, does King Li still dare to attack aggressively? Unless he doesn't want Dongdu anymore!"
Dou Jiande's face darkened, he was so angry and scolded him as if he hated iron. He paused, waved his hand and continued:
"You don't need to say more. Who will have the last laugh is yet to be seen. As long as our country persists until the dust settles in the Eastern Capital, let's see if Li Guo still has the strength to invade our country! As long as you give Gu time, Gu will be able to lead Xia Guo to rise.
…”
Dou Hongxian sighed helplessly: "The question is... will our country allow the Li army to break down, thus affecting the overall situation? The old Wei army alone will be enough to deal with our country. When the time comes..."
Dou Jiande's facial features were ferocious, his eyes were red with impatience, he waved his hand and interrupted:
"Is this because girls are outgoing, or are couples just like birds of a feather? Is this what King Li is capable of? When Gu let Hongxian enter the palace, it was to help our country, not to defeat it. Concubine De finally won the agreement from Li Tang for the Tang Dynasty, and you will do it for our country
What have you achieved? Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I don’t expect you to take the risk and plead to let the Li army withdraw. Don’t add to the obstacles and disturb people’s hearts..."
"Gu has made up his mind, and you don't need to persuade him anymore. Now that Gu has embarked on this path, he will not and does not want to look back, and he cannot help himself. Think back to the beginning, when Gu had nothing, what did he rely on to get to where he is today? He failed.
