Chapter 174 Conspiracy

After the fireworks, the lantern show slowly came to an end.

Dong Moxuan and Guanxing were also tired from playing. After watching the fireworks, they returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion together.

This trip to the lantern festival was quite satisfactory for the time being. Everyone had a great time.

Well, except for a certain Shu general who found the entire Lantern Festival, everyone had a great time.

After that, Dong Moxuan thought it would be another leisurely time, but he didn't expect that just a few days after his lazy days, Wei Guo took action.

Wei, which had become low-key because of its failure to attack Shu, suddenly launched another attack on Shu.

Dong Moxuan, the leftist prime minister and swordsman who protects the country, naturally could not continue to enjoy himself in the prime minister's palace, so he went to the front line again with his sword.

Although Shu has formed an alliance with Wu, it is obviously delusional to get Wu's help when facing Wei's attack.

After all, the covenant is only temporary.

The purpose of the three countries is to compete for the world, so naturally they cannot become true friends.

At most, the Wu State would only ensure that the Shu Kingdom would not be destroyed by the Wei State. Wu would be happy to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

At least, it was impossible for Wu to send troops before Shu showed obvious decline.

The fact is just as Dong Moxuan guessed.

However, although Wei's attack was relatively fierce, under the influence of Dong Moxuan's strong strength, Shu did not fall into an obvious disadvantage.

After all, the Sword Master who protects the country is not just a talker.

Just when the battle situation was getting tense, something beyond common sense happened again.

"Wei's army suddenly descended on Chengdu again?"

Sitting in the center of the palace courtyard, Dong Moxuan, who finally got a few days of rest, listened to the reports of his subordinates and touched his temples with a headache.

And they also blocked Chengdu's supplies from all aspects, looking like they wanted to surround Chengdu...

So what does Wei want to do this time?

Although this time Wei's army reached 50,000, which was far more than double the last time.

But this time Chengdu is far from comparable to the last time. There are more than 40,000 troops stationed in Chengdu alone, as well as generals such as Ling and Ma Chao.

Coupled with Dong Moxuan, the strength gap of only ten thousand is really nothing.

"Ling, what do you think?"

Dong Moxuan, who really couldn't think of a reason, threw the question to Ling.

"You don't even understand what's the use of asking me?"

The bell swayed, indicating that she had no idea.

"That's it..."

Dong Moxuan touched his chin.

"So what now?"

"There is no way to go on like this..."

After all, in a city as big as Chengdu, with 40,000 soldiers, a supply shortage would be a very serious matter.

"Pass the news to Prime Minister Guanxing and ask her to give us a solution?"

Although supplies have been cut off, it is not too difficult to just convey the news.

"Don't rely on stargazing for everything!"

Dong Moxuan angrily gave Ling a knife on the head.

"I don't know if there is a spy, but the Wei State just happened to choose Chengdu to be short of supplies this time and sent people from the sky to besiege it..."

"If we don't deal with those guys..."

"We can't afford it..."

After thinking for a while, Dong Moxuan finally made a decision.

A very simple decision.

"It's better for me to lead people to deal with the besieging troops. Anyway, there are only 50,000 people..."

"Why don't you wait and see what happens? I always feel like there is some conspiracy..."

Ling's reaction to Dong Moxuan's proposal was hesitant.

After all, Wei Guo's action seems to be evil.

Ling didn't dare to act rashly.

"What's going on?"

Unlike the cautious Ling, Dong Moxuan's expression was a little unconcerned.

"The supplies in the city can't last for many days..."

"Do you want the soldiers to go hungry to fight the Wei army?"

"………………"

In the end, Dong Moxuan convinced Ling.

After all, she knew how powerful this young man who was often out of shape contained within him.

That is no longer a power that belongs to the human world...

Even if there is any conspiracy on the Wei side, Dong Moxuan can definitely return safely.

Therefore, it is a good choice to let Dong Moxuan take people to explore the situation first.

However, just when Dong Moxuan was about to leave, Gong Liyin came to him.

"Are you going to fight again?"

"Um…………"

Turning around and looking at the girl next to him, Dong Moxuan asked softly.

"What's wrong? Liyin."

The worry in the girl's tone made Dong Moxuan confused.

As the left prime minister of the Shu Kingdom, Dong Moxuan went on many expeditions, and Gong Liyin should have been used to it.

Why suddenly......

"No, it's nothing..."

After hearing Dong Moxuan's concerned words, Gong Liyin first shook his head, and then pursed his lips.

"It's just... I always feel a bad premonition..."

"Bad feeling?"

"Um…………"

When Dong Moxuan and Ling were talking just now, Gong Liyin was also present.

So she fully understands the current situation.

"Just when Xuan said he would lead troops to deal with Wei's army, I suddenly had a very bad feeling in my heart..."

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if something important was about to leave her.

"Perhaps... what General Ling said before is right..."

"Wei Guo...Those guys may really have some conspiracy..."

"so…………"

"Can I not go this time?"

Looking at Dong Moxuan, Gong Liyin's dark eyes showed a pleading look for the first time.

"We can wait first..."

"………………"

Looking at the girl's worried eyes, Dong Moxuan was silent for a long time.

Finally, he smiled and rubbed the girl's head.

"Liyin... I'm very happy that you can worry about me so much..."

"So…………"

After listening to Dong Moxuan's words, a hopeful color appeared in Gong Liyin's eyes.

But this hope was quickly extinguished by Dong Moxuan's next words.

"But, I have to go this time."

"You should know that if the situation continues like this, it will only get worse."

Either be surrounded and die, or fight to the death while you can still fight.

Wei Guo is conspiring this time, and Dong Moxuan and Ling have no choice.

This is why Ling finally agreed with Dong Moxuan's opinion.

"Then... isn't there General Ling?"

Seeing that Dong Moxuan could not be persuaded like this, Gong Liyin immediately changed directions.

"General Ling is also very powerful, so Xuan you don't have to..."

Although she and Ling can be considered friends, compared with Dong Moxuan, they are still...
