Chapter 439 The Kingdom of Wu needs a big victory to boost the morale of the army (second update)
Prime Minister Liu took the letter of challenge, took a deep breath, slowly unfolded it, and saw the very eye-catching handwriting.
It was as if I saw an unruly little baby with nostrils pointing upward and empty eyes, ah no... a arrogant little baby, giggling and arrogant.
Prime Minister Liu's old face turned dark instantly. Fortunately, the letter of war directly mentioned the wrong king Zhu Meng by name.
Even so, Prime Minister Liu, who was not affected by the aftermath, was still so angry that his eyes turned black.
After all, he should be beside the great king Zhu Meng, the helpless person described by the yellow-mouthed kid.
But when he turned to the second page, his eyes suddenly bulged.
The kid with a yellow mouth was just spouting shit, and he mocked the generals around the king as private salt dealers who didn't like to lose money in gambling stalls and couldn't even keep their crotch cloths.
Do you like people who slaughter chickens and dogs for lack of weight? Do you want to steal even the bellybands of young ladies from brothels?
As for the civil servants around Zhu Meng, they all accomplished nothing in reading. Cheng Yue was a stupid bookworm who could even fart loudly and quote scriptures with emotion.
The three melons and two dates in my pocket are enough to drink two sips of sour wine, and I can peek at the poor widow in the next street taking a bath to satisfy her cravings. If I don’t, I can say yes to the old man with a candle in the toilet...
"I, I have never seen such a mouthful, such a disgusting beast in my life!"
Zhu Mengruo, who was looking at the letter written by Zhu Zhonglie, suddenly turned his head and saw Prime Minister Liu suddenly trembling all over like an epilepsy.
Dong immediately heard Prime Minister Liu's extremely angry roar.
He quickly stood up and supported the prime minister, whose face was turning green with anger and whose legs and feet were cold.
While opening his mouth to persuade me, please don't ask for anything to happen if you are angry. Is it true that I, the King, really need Prime Minister Liu and me to make suggestions and help me conquer Tiandong?
Taking advantage of that time, Zhu Mendong glanced at the letter of challenge consciously, saw the words inside, and then looked at the very angry Prime Minister Liu in front of him.
Zhu Meng almost couldn't control himself and burst into laughter. Could it be that Prime Minister Liu, who claimed to have been the head of a county for several years, was actually the pale-headed official holding a candle in the toilet?
Please tell me why you are so angry?

Fortunately, such strange thoughts only passed by in a flash, and he continued to comfort Prime Minister Liu with good words.
He took the letter of challenge and flipped through it. In an instant, Zhu Meng felt that his scalp was numb, the veins on his forehead were throbbing, and sparks almost spurted out of his nostrils.
He quickly looked away, wondering, what kind of brain did Gao Zhang's little thief have, and why did he write such a provocative letter of challenge?
Don't look at it anymore. If you look eastward, I would like to go to Wangting Town with a big sword and kill Gao Zhang, that kid with a yellow mouth who talks nonsense.
After a long time, Prime Minister Liu, who had finally regained his breath, gritted his teeth and listened to King Zhu Meng's description of the general content of Zhu Zhonglie's letter.
He saluted Zhu Meng and gave a fairly sincere suggestion.
"Your Majesty, according to my opinion, Xiuzhou must be saved, but not now."
"If Mr. Liu fails to save Xiuzhou according to his words, who can bear the responsibility if there is a mistake?"
"Your Majesty, although Ruming Xiuzhou suffered a small setback, in the end the city is still in his lap."
"If Zhu Gui, Na He Zhizhou and others can work together to help recruit young men to strictly guard the city, it will be difficult to seize those thousands of officers and soldiers in a short time."
"What's more, the defeat of Xiuzhou will easily make the people of Wu country unstable.
What their great nation of Wu needs most is an unprecedented victory to boost their morale and confidence..."
After those words came out, Zhu Meng and all the civil and military officials present had to admit that what Prime Minister Liu, who was so angry just now and almost slapped him, made a lot of sense.
Zhu Meng also stroked his beard and nodded with deep understanding, and asked whether Prime Minister Liu had ever disapproved of the gray-headed clerk who was holding a candle in the toilet. But at least his analysis was very reasonable, and that was enough.
"Therefore, I believe that your Majesty should clean up the army as soon as possible and wipe out Gao Zhang's Children's Division, which currently poses the greatest threat to his Kingdom of Wu.
In this way, it will definitely cause earthquakes in the east of the sky, and it will also greatly enhance the king's prestige. When the time comes, with a single shout, the crowd will be like a cloud."
"Your Majesty, I also feel that what Prime Minister Liu said is extremely false. How can it be more satisfying to save Xiuzhou than to directly kill the governor appointed by the imperial court?"
But the person who said such words must be a vulgar warrior, but at least even vulgar warriors agreed with Prime Minister Liu's suggestion, and some civil servants also wanted to be new and different.
But at that time, there was simply no way to turn the tide.
In the past, Zhu Meng directly slapped the case and stood up.
"Since you all think that I should operate on Gao Zhang's child first, then it's settled.
That child with a yellow mouth whose fetal hair has not yet faded is the main culprit that forced me to raise an army.
General Gu, Commander Xu, Commander Wang, and Youlao, the three ruthless ministers, have stepped up preparations for the army. They will send out troops in the early morning of the following month. I will go and meet with you in person..."
"The king's body of gold must never be like this."
"How can I rest assured if I don't go to supervise the battle in person? My dear friends, there is no need to say anything more, the matter is settled."
Zhu Meng waved his thigh and said decisively.
Can I prepare to send 30,000 troops, including my old elite bodyguards?
At that time, if I didn't look at those soldiers and horses, how could I be relaxed?
If some guy slaps his head, Zhu Meng will do it, why can't I do it, haha...
When I think about it, it makes sense. It would be enough to leave a few confidants in Suzhou City and lead the newly recruited tens of thousands of young people to defend the city.

Liu Fa walked on the pony and looked at the autographed letter from the prodigy champion who had been famous for a long time but had never been masked.
The envelope contained only one picture and two pages of letter paper. The contents were very simple and clear.
First of all, I have heard about General Liu's reputation in the northwest, and I would be deeply pleased if I could get someone as famous as General Liu Fa to come to my aid.
In addition, I have designed a plan to lure the enemy. I think that outside of May, Zhu's bandit army will definitely attack in a large scale.
And I have decided to set up the battlefield of Dachang eight miles southeast of Wangting City. General Liu and I can decide when to attack.
I will personally lead more than 10,000 officers and soldiers in the east of my command to form a formation to resist the enemy. I will wait for General Liu and I to lead his cavalry of the Song Dynasty Forbidden Army to defeat the enemy.
Liu Fa has read the letter over and over again, not ten times, but seven or eight times.
The content of the letter was indeed very simple and clear. Could it be that it was because of the simplicity that Liu Fa was even more upset.
"General, general..."
At that time, a horse came galloping to the east of Qiu Dong. The rider turned over and jumped on the horse's back, striding towards the hill.
"The general has met the general. I wonder what the general's orders were when he summoned the general?"
