In the past, Nan Jinzhao had no regard for a barren land like Beichen.
Beichen is not suitable for human habitation at all. It is a little larger than his southern border. If we fight a war, we will only get land like Beichen. Nan Jinzhao will never start a war. Without him, it would be a loss.
Got it!
When he initially launched the war, his goal was to unify the four kingdoms. Of course he wanted Beichen, but that was incidental. His main goal was Tianqi and Tianwu, and the first thing he wanted to capture was the rich Tianqi.
After capturing Tianqi, and with Tianqi's money and food to support his troops, he can continue the war and capture Tianwu and Beichen.
Later, the prince and Ji Yun came back from the killing spree and summoned a large number of soldiers and horses in the shortest possible time to confront Nan Jinzhao. At that time, Nan Jinzhao vaguely understood that he could no longer defend Tianqi.
But even so, he still didn't give up.
Tianqi's land was vast and fertile, and he really couldn't bear to give up.
Later, he just couldn't bear it and had no choice.
The soldiers and horses in the prince's hands were so powerful that he had no power to resist them.
Helpless, Nan Jinzhao had to give up Tianqi and set his target on Tianwu. However, the prince was one step ahead of him and took Beichen Tianque to Tianwu, causing Nan Jinzhao to miss the opportunity.
Nan Jinzhao had no choice but to cooperate with Emperor Tianwu to attack Beichen in order to force Beichen Tianque to give up Tianwu.
There is no other way for Nan Jinzhao to attack Beichen.
Beichen's soldiers and horses are very capable of fighting, but Nan Jinzhao is not confident that he can defeat Beichen Tianque's men, so he wants Beichen Tianque to fight Tianwu first, so as to consume Beichen's troops and at the same time consume Tianwu's troops.
Even if Tianwu cannot consume Beichen Tianque's troops and horses, he attacks Beichen and attacks Beichen Tianque's rear. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, Beichen Tianque must send troops to rescue it, right?
It is even possible to force Beichen Tianque to retreat and come back to collect Beichen.
And when the time comes, he will be able to lead his troops to evacuate Beichen and seize Tianwu's territory.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed. General Lei from Tianwu led his troops back to Tianwu and fought several battles with Beichen Tianque, but they were all defeated. He was no match for Beichen Tianque.
When Beichen Tianque learned that the rear was lost, he did not choose to give up Tianwu, but asked the prince for help.
Now, Beichen Tianque is about to capture Tianwu. It is useless for him to evacuate from Beichen and rush to Tianwu battlefield.
It's useless if you don't use it, you might encounter Beichen Tianque's troops.
Beichen Tianque's soldiers and horses are strong, and the soldiers and horses in the hands of the prince are good at fighting. Neither of these two people are good at fighting. Now that these two people cooperate, Nan Jinzhao has no way to go.
With Beichen Tianque here, Tianwu doesn't have to think about it.
And with the prince here, he doesn't have to think about Tianqi. He can't even go back to Southern Xinjiang now.
The prince included Southern Xinjiang into Tianqi and became one of Tianqi's territories. If Nan Jinzhao wanted to return to Southern Xinjiang, he had to defeat the prince's troops first. However, with the current combat effectiveness of the soldiers and horses in Southern Xinjiang, it was impossible to defeat him.
Pass the prince's troops.
The most Nan Jinzhao can do now is to cause a little chaos for the prince and cause chaos at the border. It is almost impossible to seize territory.
There is no chance of Tianqi, Tianwu cannot get it, and Nanjiang cannot return. Nan Jinzhao's only choice now is Beichen!
Although Beichen is barren, it is better than nothing?
With the territory of Beichen, he can still make a comeback. If he is driven out of Beichen, he will really have nothing and can only occupy the mountain and become the king and become a bandit.
And this is something Nan Jinzhao cannot accept.
If he was willing to be a bandit, when would he conquer the world in the first place?
Nan Jinzhao didn't give his staff a chance to speak at all, and said coldly and decisively: "Beichen, we must defend! Beichen, we must take down! Do you understand?"
"Yes, King!" Nan Jinzhao has extremely high prestige among the soldiers in Southern Xinjiang. This prestige was obtained by his cruel and cold-blooded methods. No one in the Southern Xinjiang army dared to say no to Nan Jinzhao.
Now Nan Jinzhao has spoken, even if all of them think that Beichen cannot be defended, they must defend it, even if it means death.
"Go, send 10,000 people to kidnap Beichen's civilians, as many as they can, and then... drive them under the city wall and tie them to the city wall. Let people shout to Tianqi's soldiers and horses, and if they take a step forward, we will
Kill a hundred people and keep killing until the people of Beichen are dead." He can't defeat King Yanbei's men when he attacks the city, but will Nan Jinzhao lose when he defends the city?
He wanted to see if Xiao Jiuan, the prince of Beichen who was recognized by everyone in Beichen, had no regard for the life and death of the people of Beichen.
"Yes, King!" The soldiers of Southern Xinjiang were extremely efficient. As soon as Nan Jinzhao gave the order, they took action immediately and drove tens of thousands of people into the city that day.
These people were mainly women, old people and children. They were dressed very thinly, like pigs and sheep. They were tied to the city wall by the soldiers from southern Xinjiang and driven under the city wall...
Apocalypse's soldiers and horses were under the city wall, calling for battle with the soldiers and horses from Southern Xinjiang. The two sides were about to start fighting when these people appeared. For a moment, the originally tense and solemn battlefield was filled with cries and cries.
"What's going on?" Tianqi's soldiers were confused.
What is this operation?
Isn't it a war?
How did you drive innocent people to the battlefield?
"King Yanbei's henchmen, you heard this clearly...these are the people of Beichen, including old people, women and children. If you want to take a step forward, we will kill a hundred people, until we reach the people of Beichen.
Until death.
By the way, if you don't retreat for a day, we will kill a thousand people every day. Keep killing until you retreat." The soldiers of Southern Xinjiang stood on the city wall and shouted loudly, telling them the rules set by Nan Jinzhao.
Apocalypse's soldiers and horses listen.
"Help! King Yanbei, help!"
"Uuuuuuuuah...I don't want to die, I don't want to die."
"Help, help!"
"King Yanbei is my prince of Beichen. Please, King Yanbei, please save us, please save us."
"King Yanbei, save us, please, save us."
'King Yanbei...'
…
On the city wall and under the city wall, the people of Beichen who had been kidnapped by soldiers from southern Xinjiang were crying and shouting. They all looked helpless and frightened. They could do nothing at this time but beg and beg the King of Yanbei to save them.
Tianqi's soldiers and horses suddenly became furious when they heard the words of the soldiers in southern Xinjiang and the shouts of these people.
"You are despicable and shameless!" Tianqi's soldiers yelled angrily, veins bulging in the hand holding the spear. They all wished they could rush forward and kill all those shameless people in southern Xinjiang.
Southern Xinjiang people are so shameless!
They fought with the people of Southern Xinjiang countless times, thinking that they had seen the most shameless side of Southern Xinjiang, but they didn't want to...
Next time we meet, the people of Southern Xinjiang will refresh their knowledge and let them know that Southern Xinjiang can be even more shameless and shameless! (To be continued)
