Nine hundred and thirtieth eight chapters draw salary
Dayuecheng, Royal Palace.
The Lord of the Moon Kingdom listened to the reports of the people below, and his expression became more and more gloomy.
These days, he rarely hears good news about Da Yue.
The establishment of the Western Region Allies and the annihilation of the Khotan and Gumo armies made Dayue's important plan fail, and it was like a slap in the face.
However, this was not the only bad news. The latest battle reports from the battlefield made him even more upset.
After Dayue and Wusun united, although they did not get any benefits from Xiaowan, after several battles, the two sides still lost and won.
However, in the past half month, several conflicts broke out between them and Xiaowan, and they were almost suppressed by the other party. Although the scale of those wars was not large, Xiaowan still fought hard even though the number of participants in the battle was far smaller than theirs.
Using less to defeat more, easily won the victory.
The battlefield gradually showed signs of decline, but on the one hand, there was also chaos in Dayue City these days.
Within half a month, three official warehouses were burned down, and the arsonist has not yet been found. The guards patrolling the city at night also encountered several attacks. As a result, after the sky darkened, no people dared to come out for activities.
The Lord of Dayue Kingdom lowered his face and said: "Two thousand more guards will be dispatched from the palace to patrol the city. Anyone who encounters trouble will be killed without mercy."
He teamed up with Wusun to deal with Xiaowan and had already eliminated most of Dayue's elite troops. After the Khotan and Gumo armies were wiped out, only 5,000 soldiers and horses could be used in Dayue City.
Among them, one thousand people are responsible for patrolling the city, and the other four thousand are arranged in the palace. But now that the chaos in the city is out of control, he can only make temporary adjustments to the strength of the troops.
However, he had just made these arrangements when another news shocked him and almost fell from his position.
The allies in the Western Region have assembled an army of 10,000 troops and have arrived a hundred miles away from Dayue City. It looks like they are coming with bad intentions.
"They are so brave!" There was a look of shock and disbelief on his face. He never thought that the Western Region allies would actually dare to take advantage of the situation and attack Dayue.
At the peak of Dayue, they could destroy an army of 10,000 with a wave of their hands, but now the country is empty, and the army outside is restrained by Xiaowan, unable to return to defense, and can only rely on domestic strength.
Fortunately, there are still 200,000 people in Dayue City, and tens of thousands of young people can be gathered at any time. In addition, there are countless slaves from other countries, a mere 10,000 people, who want to break through Dayue City.
, is nothing more than a fool’s dream.
"Close the city gate and prepare to fight!"
"Quick, gather those slaves immediately..."
"Send fifty spies to closely monitor every move of the enemy and report back at any time!"
…
Although he did not think that these ten thousand people could threaten Da Yue's safety, he still made the most thorough deployment and arrangements.
Before today, he had never thought that those small countries could pose such a threat to Da Yue, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.
However, regret was regret, and this emotion only appeared in his mind for a moment. He then focused on the matter in front of him and ordered: "Summon all the ministers immediately and enter the palace to discuss matters."
…
The allies of the Western Region took advantage of the emptiness in Dayue's country to target Dayue, but they did not hide it from the people of Dayue.
In just three days, they approached thirty miles away from Dayue City.
For a time, the atmosphere in the city suddenly became uneasy.
Although the Imperial Court of Dayue was aroused, it remained calm. They just closed the city gate and did not allow anyone to enter or exit. Other than that, there were no unnecessary actions.
Compared with the allies in the Western Region, their advantage is that they are the defensive side.
It is impossible to attack a city with 200,000 people with just 10,000 people. However, there is enough food in Dayue City to support the people in the city for several years, and it only takes one month to conquer the city outside.
Thousands of people were dragged down.
Even so, the defenders in the city did not relax. Hundreds of people patrolled the four walls day and night, and spies were sent outside the city to keep an eye on every move of the enemy camp day and night.
A few more days passed, and the army of the Western Region Allies had advanced ten miles away from the West City Gate.
According to the spies' report, their food supply could not last long, which meant that within a few days, the enemy would attack the city.
In the city, the Imperial Court of Dayue has gathered more than 10,000 slaves.
These slaves usually sell coolies in exchange for food to survive. When Dayue City encounters a crisis, they are pushed out immediately.
These people were gathered together, and an Oyue official stood on the high platform in the front and said loudly: "You all have to listen clearly to me. As long as you win this battle, the imperial court will release you from your status as slaves.
This is your only chance..."
The defenders of Dayue stood on the city wall, looking at the troops of the Western Region allies approaching the city, their expressions were quite calm.
Dayue has ruled the Western Region for so long that he has naturally seen many large and small battles. In addition to these ten thousand slaves, Dayue's young men also formed a team of more than ten thousand people.
When these slaves rush out of the city, they will close the city gate. Even if the troops of the Western Region Allies are well-trained, these slaves are not opponents and will greatly weaken the opponent's strength. When the time comes, they can go out of the city to encircle and suppress these slaves.
The rebellion of the small country was wiped out in one fell swoop.
However, no one expected that when they opened the city gate and half of the slaves poured out of the city gate, they stopped rushing forward.
They seemed to have planned it. They turned around and pointed their weapons at Da Yue's soldiers behind them.
At this time, the city gate was wide open, and the door was full of slaves. It was impossible to close the city gate. The army of the Western Region Allies behind them took this opportunity to rush in, and together with the slaves, they rushed into Dayue City.
.
The betrayal of the slaves was something that the Dayue people had not expected. They were killed before they could react.
The expressions of several generals changed drastically, and when they were about to issue orders, a strange old man or woman suddenly appeared in front of them. After that, their vision went dark, and they lost track of their personnel.
Dayue's army was suddenly leaderless. Facing an enemy twice their size, they were quickly defeated. The allied forces of the Western Region allies and those slaves pursued the victory and soon surrounded the palace.
In the palace, the Lord of the Dayue Kingdom slumped on the throne, his face pale and bloodless, and said in a trembling voice: "How is this possible, how is this possible..."
A guard leader stood beside him and said anxiously: "My lord, the soldiers will fight a bloody path at the east gate. Let's escape quickly. As long as the lord is still here, we still have a chance!"
Dayue's elite are all outside. Once they get rid of Xiaowan's restraint, they can quickly come back. This is their only hope.
…
Today is the disaster of Dayue. Foreign enemies invaded and slaves betrayed. Although the king escaped under the protection of some heartfelt guards, Dayue City has completely fallen into the hands of the Western Region Allies.
The slaves of Dayue City finally saw hope, cheered and were excited. If the allies of the Western Region had not warned them not to allow them to massacre the people of Dayue, today would be the day when they would bloodbath Dayue.
On the contrary, today is the end of the world for the people of Dayue. They have lost their king and their guards. Although no one is taking advantage of the chaos to do anything to them now, there is no clue what will happen tomorrow.
People know.
Just a few hours later, news came out that the leader of Dayue Kingdom, who had escaped thirty miles outside the city, was captured and imprisoned in the palace.
At this point, Big Moon, which was once so glorious and had annexed and destroyed many countries, has also embarked on the same path as them.
When Tang Ning received the intelligence report from the front, it was already a month after their plan for Da Yue.
With the help of Xiao Wan, the secret spies of the Western Region Allies condensed the slaves in Dayue City into a solid force. They rebelled at the critical moment and played a key role in their attack on Dayue City.
And Dayue's army, which is still on the battlefield and is in a stalemate with Xiaowan, probably still doesn't know that when they and Wusun teamed up to deal with Xiaowan, Xiaowan had already united with the Western Region allies to give them a blow...
[ps: I said some time ago that Xiao Langjun will probably be finished by the end of the year, but when I actually wrote it, I found that filling in the pit at the end and developing the plot in the beginning are not the same way to write. I am not a person who will increase the word count through watery plots. This
Over a period of time, I deleted a lot of redundant things. According to this writing method, the completion should be two months early, as early as September and as late as October. I will inform everyone about this.
In addition, although it is almost finished, I will still continue to update. After all, there is nothing to do in bed even if you have a broken bone. However, using a mobile phone to code is no better than using a computer. Not to mention it is uncomfortable. I always feel that the screen is smaller, my thinking is narrow, and my brain is too tired.
I am a lot duller. If there are any omissions, I hope everyone will actively point out in the comment area. It is not easy to chase a book with more than two million words. Let’s walk the last part of Xiaolangjun’s journey together.]
