Chapter 276 Kill the World

After all, Liu Yao was seriously injured and was a little out of energy after holding on for a while. Although there were all kinds of doubts and worries in her heart, Jiang Ting quickly cleaned up and recovered her spirits and let him fall asleep as soon as possible.

Chuntao and several little girl followed with a pack of clothes and shoes. Geng Shan and others, who were guarding outside, naturally would not stop them and let them go in to help Jiang Ting tidy up.

After Liu Yao fell asleep, when Jiang Ting came out again, she had become the usual dignified concubine.

"I have met the princess." Geng Shan saluted Jiang Ting without changing his face, as if the chaos caused by her had never happened before.

Jiang Ting was thick-skinned enough and didn't feel ashamed of her behavior just now. Therefore, she also nodded to Geng Shan very indifferently and did not show any embarrassment. On the contrary, all the others guarding outside bowed their heads and dared not look at Jiang Ting. They hurriedly saluted her and retreated silently.

Since the imperial concubine has come out, she naturally has to ask them. Unfortunately, the imperial concubine just pushed Yu An's palm really scared these followers. Therefore, at this time, everyone coincidentally left the "dangerous" task of dealing with the imperial concubine to Geng Shan, who was skillful.

"Geng Shan, when did you tell me when the prince was injured?" Jiang Ting asked bluntly, "The prince is coming back now, does it mean that the front line has been defeated?"

Geng Shan nodded and replied, "The front line has been defeated. Three days ago, 20,000 new anti-arms were added to the war, and the prince saw that the general situation had gone and received his troops. But the rebels chased after it, broke the gate and captured Yunwu City. The prince was shot by arrows when he led everyone to retreat.

Yunwu City is the gateway to the south of Lingnan County. If Yunwu City is lost, it is equivalent to giving up the road to the north for the rebels. This battle is indeed defeated. Jiang Ting sighed in her heart and asked, "What are the casualties of the Lingnan army?"

Geng Shan answered in a low voice, "Nearly 30% of the deaths and injuries."

Jiang Ting took a deep breath and suppressed her beating heart, but she couldn't suppress the fear and anger rising in her heart. It has only been five days since the two armies fought. In only five days, there were nearly 30% of casualties! Dad said that the eldest prince is extremely murderous, even the soldiers he brought out?

"Can there be slaughter cities against the army?" Jiang Tingqiang calmed down, but she couldn't help trembling in her voice. If the anti-army slaughter the city, those innocent people...

"No." Geng Shan shook his head blankly and replied, "After the rebels captured Yunwu City, they continued to go north. However, yesterday, I got the news that the Miao people in southern Xinjiang took the opportunity to fight against the southern defense army, and the rebels in the north retreated.

"Go back?" Jiang Ting was a little surprised: "Have they all retreated?"

Geng Shan nodded: "Well, all the troops have retreated, not even Yunwu City, and they have all retreated to the border defense line."

"How could this happen?" Jiang Ting couldn't figure it out. Even if the Miao people take the opportunity to make trouble, the southern defense forces left at the border will not have the power to fight back at all. Isn't the Southern Defense Army going to rebel with the eldest prince?

Just as Jiang Ting was puzzled, the eldest prince had taken the generals of the Protectorate and the direct generals who supported him, and quietly joined the rebels who attacked Lingnan and retreated to the border to defend the city and Yannan Pass.

Two thousand miles south of Lingnan County, all belong to the border area. It is located in a remote area, but it is not barren. The eldest prince has been working hard to manage this place since he began to lead the army in his teens. Now it has become a prosperous place for people and agriculture.

From beginning to end, the siege of the capital was just a smoke bomb for the eldest prince to buy time. Although the eldest prince is extremely murderous, he is not impulsive. He knew that it was impossible to win with quick success and quick profit. Only by converging his 100,000 troops can he have a real chance to turn the tables in the future. More importantly, Yannan Pass is his foundation and must not be lost. Moreover, the throne in the palace is not easy to grab. He has to occupy the fertile place in southern Xinjiang before he can really compete with the hypocrites in the capital.

"Your Highness, the army has been rushing for three days, and it is only half a day away from Yannan Pass. Why don't you camp here and have a good night's rest?" In the carriage protected by thousands of troops, the Protector advised the eldest prince who was closing his eyes.

The eldest prince nodded gently and still closed his eyes and said, "My husband can arrange it."

The Protector nodded and ordered his grandson Zhang Sheng, who was sitting outside the car door: "Go to General Yan to spread a message. Your Highness ordered the army to camp here for a night before marching."

Zhang Sheng responded respectfully, jumped out of the carriage and went to send a message.

A quarter of an hour later, the army stopped moving forward and began to camp on the ground.

In the eldest prince's military account, the generals and ministers who followed from the capital gathered together to discuss future military affairs. As a junior, Zhang Sheng should not have been here. But with the acquiescence of the eldest prince, the Duke of Protector still took him with him to listen and learn to increase his knowledge.

Although Zhang Sheng is a little arrogant among ordinary people, he is very modest and cautious in front of these elder generals in front of him. These days, he has been polite and very open-minded and easy to learn with the behavior of the Protector, and has gradually entered everyone's eyes. Although he spread a few confused things a few years ago. But who has never been young and frivolous? As long as you know how to admit your mistakes and correct them seriously, you will be a good seed.

If you can run out with the eldest prince, no matter the literary ministers and military generals, they all have their own fierceness. When it comes to the topic of Miao people taking the opportunity to make trouble, the unified concept of the generals is naturally to fight back. And we should beat them hard, beat the Miao people for fear, occupy their land, and drive them into the barren mountains further south. The barbarians should look like barbarians, occupying such a large area of fertile land in southern Xinjiang, but they only know how to raise insects, which is really a little wasteful. It's better to let the Southern Tang and Han people go in to cultivate farmland and cultivate grain.

And those literary ministers were nagging, but the meaning of the words was not much different from what the generals said. However, the literary ministers all felt that the attack on southern Xinjiang should be discussed from a long-term perspective and should not be too aggressive.

Zhang Sheng listened to their lively discussion about attacking southern Xinjiang, and he couldn't help but have his own ideas in mind. He thought that when the eldest prince surrounded the capital, he would directly break through the gate and lift the prince from the throne. Unexpectedly, the eldest prince gave up the good opportunity and gave up the 20,000 military horses, so he quietly went south.

He thought that the eldest prince was plotting the whole Southern Tang Dynasty. But now the eldest prince is discussing with these people to attack southern Xinjiang. Is it possible that the eldest prince just wants to become a king and does not want to seize the throne of the Southern Tang Dynasty? His grandfather put all his life on the eldest prince. Is this right or wrong?

"Zhang Sheng, what do you think?" The eldest prince suddenly asked Zhang Sheng, who was bowing his head and thinking.

Zhang Sheng paused and came back to his mind. He looked up at the eldest prince's sharp eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and his heart couldn't help jumping wildly. Zhang Sheng quickly bowed his head and bowed his head and answered honestly, "Your Highness, the little man was accidentally distracted. Your Highness, please atone for your sins.

"Oh? What did you think of?" The eldest prince is full of interest.

Zhang Sheng subconsciously glanced at the Duke of Protector, but did not get any hint. He was flat in his heart and simply said what he thought in his heart: "The villain has been unable to figure out why His Highness did not directly capture the capital and enter the palace to seize the throne? Also, why did Your Highness leave Yunwu City, which people will get this time?

The eldest prince suddenly laughed and pointed to Zhang Sheng and said to the protector: "Fair, your grandson is a little bold."

The Lord Protector bowed and saluted: "Children, please atone for your sins."

The eldest prince smiled and shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. I like bold and good men. Zhang Sheng, since you want to know, I'll tell you.

With that, the smile on the eldest prince's face dissipated and his expression suddenly became fierce. His voice was flat, but his words were like knives: "My father thinks that I am too murderous to pass on to me, so I don't want the world he guards. I will take what I want. In the future, I just want to create a world! My own world!"
