Chapter nine hundred and eighty sixth embarrassing position
"This Qi Xin deserves to die!" Chen Shushen said bitterly.
"The national crisis is facing us, and everyone has his own ambitions." Chen Shujian laughed bitterly.
Li Xinchen had already brought out Lechang and King Gu Ye, and together with Wu Mingche and Xu Ling, he could no longer represent morality and orthodoxy. And his father had given birth to so many children, and Li Xinchen would grab any prince at will.
Force him to ascend the throne and then take the throne, and then it will really be justifiable.
All this couldn't be simpler, especially as the Northern and Southern Dynasties were changing from generation to generation, everyone had long been familiar with these routines. Therefore, when Li Xingchen was invincible, these civil and military officials, some of whom had been former Liang ministers, turned to Li Xingchen one after another.
Logically, they cannot be expected to have any loyalty to a dynasty that only existed for twenty years.
Regardless of whether Qi Xin took the initiative or was forced to do so, the fact that the enemy appeared at the gate of Xiangzhou City so quickly meant that it was not just a matter of a day or two for the Jingzhou Navy to contact Li Xinchen, but definitely within at least three or four days.
Be prepared.
It has reached this point, Qi Xin has actually become a part of the rolling torrent, and can no longer help himself to move forward or backward.
People's minds have changed like this, and the court is actually powerless.
Chen Shujian looked at his younger brother: "No matter what, we must defend Xiangzhou City as much as possible."
"But what happens next?" Chen Shushen murmured, "Everywhere is in a tight situation now, and the imperial court's reinforcements are probably already stretched thin. And even if the army is really mobilized, can the people who command the troops really be trusted?
?The relationship between Li Xinchen and Da Chen is really too deep... What's more, if you look at Qi Xin, at least he has not shown any objections during the day, which shows that he is more likely to be forced, that is to say
At this time, the people below can’t believe it. Qi Xin has commanded the Jingzhou Navy for so many years, and it’s still like this..."
"Then we must keep guarding, at least the two of us are still here!" Chen Shujian said coldly, "We are the royal family of Dachen. Others can ignore the court, but how can we ignore it!"
Chen Shushen's hand shook slightly. The Shu Han Navy's attack continued. The stone bullets hit the city and also hit Chen Shushen's heart.
Could Li Xinchen really be so cruel that he would not hesitate to kill the Nanchen royal family? After all, with the Southeast Family and Lechang here, Li Xinchen should not dare...
"It will be dawn soon, and the enemy will definitely step up the attack," Chen Shujian did not notice the change in Chen Shushen's expression, and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and arrange for Minzhuang behind to go to the city!"
"What's wrong?!" Chen Shujian's voice became a little louder when he saw that Chen Shushen didn't answer.
Chen Shushen trembled, and hurriedly forced out a smile. Chen Shujian thought that Chen Shushen was scared, and sighed softly. After all, his younger brother had never been on the battlefield, so it was reasonable to be afraid and nervous. He was the first
The first time he went to the battlefield, he was no better than him.
But at a critical moment when the family and country were in danger, the only ones who could be relied upon were the royal family members, so neither Chen Shujian nor Chen Shushen had any choice.
Reaching out and patting Chen Shushen's shoulder, Chen Shujian stood up and said, "Let Minzhuang go to the city. The enemy's attack will definitely be more violent after dawn."

Looking at the five-toothed ship appearing on the water, Qi Xin felt mixed emotions.
Li Xinchen arrived very quickly, which undoubtedly told Qi Xin that he had almost no control over his men. Otherwise, the main force of the enemy's navy gathered in Balingji, waiting for the Jingzhou Navy to let them go straight into Dongting. If it weren't for his generals,
He kept lying about military information, and it was impossible for Qi Xin not to know about it at all.
His control over this battle was still limited to the fact that the scouts of the Shuhan Navy were testing outside Balingji, but he did not know that the ships of the Shuhan Navy that his men thought were scouts were all composed of five-toothed ships.
of.
This feeling of betrayal was not good, but Qi Xin also understood that the choices of these generals were not wrong. The war had reached this point, and Li Xingchen formed a double-team on Nan Chen. Naturally, the Northern Zhou Dynasty had no time to visit Nan Chen at this time.
As the weather gets warmer, the civil war will definitely continue. Therefore, I am afraid that no one can save Nanchen at this stage.
Therefore, it is understandable that these people made a prudent choice to protect themselves. After all, they also risked their lives and fought in Yiling in Langwei Beach, which can be regarded as bleeding for this country.
They wanted peace, and the one who could bring peace was obviously not the Nanchen court, but Li Xinchen, who was standing on the bow of the boat and looking at Qi Xin with a smile.
"General Qi abandoned darkness and turned to light. He is truly a role model." When Li Xinchen saw Qi Xin boarding the ship, he quickly came up to greet him. He even appeared on the bow just to greet Qi Xin.
Qi Xin hurriedly raised his hands in salute, and Li Xinchen stretched out his hand to support him: "The general is brave, everyone sees it. Today, with the help of the general, we can bring peace to the south of the Yangtze River, and it will be just around the corner!"
"Your Highness, you are overly complimentary." Qi Xin smiled bitterly. He was forced to surrender by a group of subordinates, and he did not ask Li Xinchen to entrust him with such a heavy responsibility. The world was seeing the dawn of peace, so he simply disbanded and returned to work to become a soldier.
Being a farmer is not a bad thing.
When Li Xinchen saw Qi Xin's expression, he could roughly guess what he was thinking. Of course, Li Xinchen also knew that it was impossible for Qi Xin's old troops to be handed over to him again. Even if Qi Xin still wanted to lead this team, his subordinates
I'm afraid those generals are not willing either. After all, they have done so many things secretly without telling Qi Xin and Li Xinchen. Even if Qi Xin ignores the past grudges, they still have to carefully consider whether they will be retaliated against in the future.
But Qi Xin is also a rare naval talent in this era. Of course, Li Xinchen could not allow him to disarm and return to his homeland. At that moment, Li Xinchen made a gesture of invitation: "Come, General Qi, it is windy outside. Let's go to the cabin to talk."
talk."
Although he didn't know what Li Xinchen wanted to say to him, his current status was very embarrassing, and he was probably better than a prisoner, so Qi Xin didn't say much. And Li Xinchen stretched out his hand to push open the hatch, and a huge
Maps hang on the walls.
When seeing this map, Qi Xin frowned slightly, because it was a detailed map of the south of the Yangtze River and the outer sea. It was not that Qi Xin had never seen such a map. During the Soochow period, Sun Quan once sent out guards.
Wen and others led a fleet to explore the southeastern coast, and also sent envoys by sea to Xiangping, Liaodong to contact the Gongsun family. Therefore, they did not know anything about the sea, the Chinese nation, especially the Southern Dynasties in the south of the Yangtze River.
But now that Li Xingchen has not even captured Jiangnan, is he starting to think about matters outside the sea?
It’s good to aim high, but sometimes looking too far ahead is too ambitious. (To be continued)
