C887 Peace and Prosperity Surrounded by Enemies

"This. . . " Chu Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath. His face was still filled with hesitation.

"Is General Chu still unwilling to tell me the truth?" He heard Lin Yuhan say again.

"Hmm?" Chu Yi was stunned. He looked at Lin Yuhan for a long time, but he only let out a long sigh.

As for Lin Yuhan, he took a deep breath and said, "Since General Chu doesn't want to say it, then. . . Then I will ask him myself. As for how many tens of thousands of people would return to the He Army, could there be a relatively accurate number? Moreover, it shouldn't be just tens of thousands of people. General Chu should be hiding something from me. I shouldn't be wrong, right?"

"En? En!" Chu Yi nodded in the end and said, "That's right. Right now, he should know at least 60,000, or even more. Furthermore, the reason why Huihe was able to suffer such a heavy blow in Ming Cult was because he was able to send his army down south. A large part of the reason was that their Sect Master, who had been in seclusion for many years, had finally cultivated a divine skill. He will come with us this time. "

"It was originally like this. " Lin Yuhan replied, "What about us? How many people can we gather?"

"Well. . . " Chu Yi shook his head. "If General Guo is still here, maybe we can transfer some people from other places. But now that General Xiao is home, the army within the Great Wall can forget about it. The total number of troops outside the Great Wall is only six thousand. The disparity in strength could be imagined. Sigh! Before the New Year, Young Master Lin should know how much Ming Cult had lost in the battle of One-Line Mountain. But now, they had to recuperate after returning to Sky Mountain. This was also the perfect time for them to go down south on a large scale. Actually. . . Sigh! Forget it. Let's not talk about it anymore. " As Chu Yi spoke, he lowered his head. For some reason, he was burning with rage. He could not calm himself down for a long time.

"Is there anything else General Chu can't say?" Lin Yuhan asked.

"This. . . Sigh!" Chu Yi sighed again. In a short period of time, he let out three long sighs.

"I was just casually asking. " Lin Yuhan said, "I just saw that General seemed to be unhappy, but if General is really not in a position to say it, then forget it. "

"There is nothing inconvenient to say. " Chu Yi took a deep breath as he spoke. "Actually, to be honest, the thousands of soldiers outside the border have long been abandoned by the Emperor. The Emperor doesn't believe us, he doesn't trust the Han. He would rather hand over the vast territory outside the border to He and let him be a vassal state of Tang. He wouldn't want to hold it in his own hands. Sigh!" He sighed again.

"Since General is unhappy, why don't we just say it?" Lin Yuhan said, "If you trust me. "

"Well. . . " Chu Yi took a deep breath and drank a few more bowls of wine. "I told you that when we came back to our country, we were strong and strong, but His Majesty did not want to waste money on us. Actually, it was not because the people suffered from financial losses, but because our army was too strong. After all, we were outside the border, far away from the emperor, and separated by the Great Wall.

Later on, when we returned, we grew stronger, and the Imperial Court used that to weaken our strength time and time again. Until now. Now, the Imperial Court's intention was to send all the troops outside the border back to the Central Plains. With the Great Wall as the border, As I said before, And Young Master also saw it when he came. Tang was peaceful. The Great Wall had been out of repair for many years. It was impossible to defend against the invasion of outsiders.

Furthermore, they had retreated to defend the Great Wall. This could only be considered the dumbest method, not a good one. Even an idiot could think of such a plan. At the same time, Those who thought of this were all fools. Why did Ma Su lose his street pavilion all those years ago? Why? It was all because of his arrogance that he didn't leave any way out for himself. That year, when the Six Nations attacked Qin, The military strength of the Six Nations was also ten times that of the Qin army. That was because Qin had just risen. If they fought, they would lose without a doubt. And what did the Qin do? The teachers of the Nine Nations patrolled and did not dare to enter. The fee for the arrowheads left behind by Qin Wu's Arrow of Death. And the feudal vassals of the world are already trapped.

We have been outside the border for many years, and we have gained control over the terrain of this place. If not for the great disparity in strength between us, we would have gotten used to fighting on the plains. How could we retreat in defeat? Actually, to be honest, In the past two years, we have also retreated more than we lost. We have suffered a lot of losses, but the casualties are not heavy. If we are as strong as the Rejuvenating Crane. . . How could we have suffered such a loss? How could we have fallen to such a state?" Chu Yi slammed the table as he spoke. He jumped up and let out a long sigh. He slowly sat down and continued, "Of course. This may be the reason why His Majesty has never trusted us. He thinks that we conserve our strength. He has other plans.

The incompatibility between the generals is endless, let alone the relationship between the emperor and his subjects. Now, in the court and in the wilderness, The Emperor was old and had been slacking in politics for many years. In front of him was Li Linfu, and in the back was Yang Guozhong. The imperial court was filled with a foul atmosphere, resulting in a crowd of small leaders. Beasts fed on food. Although Tang was currently peaceful and prosperous, in the southwest, Tibet was eyeing them covetously, and the two expeditions to the Nanzhao had resulted in another great defeat. There was also Hebei, where the Lord guarded An Lushan. This An Lushan. . . I've dealt with him before, this person is superficial. . . Understanding. Looking at his chubby, honest, and honest appearance, However, he was a typical smiling tiger.

As well as the Turkic man from the northeast, Shea Siming from the Ningyi Province. He had long had thoughts of rebelling. These two used nearly a hundred thousand soldiers, and they were elite soldiers. The two fierce tigers in the southwest. . . If the two tigers in the northeast were to fight at the foot of the Great Wall, The Great Tang could be said to be surrounded by enemies, but if one side rose up. . . If the other side rose up, it would be another chaos! " As Chu Yi spoke, he slammed his palm on the table. After that, he took a few deep breaths and looked at Lin Yuhan. "When young master heard my words, his reaction wasn't as strong as I had imagined!"

"In the past, I didn't care much about the border affairs. " Lin Yuhan replied, "But when I met senior disciple Nie Yun from the Mount Tai Sect, I heard him mention some things. "

"Hmm?" Chu Yi was stunned for a moment. "I'm talking about the Emperor. "

"This. . . " Lin Yuhan took a deep breath.

"Humph!" However, before Lin Yuhan could speak, Chu Yi coldly smiled. He shook his head. "I am confused. I'm afraid Young Master Lin has already gotten used to this. If it were not for the Imperial Court, the Yang family would not have made a name for themselves in Shu. And if it wasn't for the Imperial Court, based on what the Yang family has done all these years. . . Young Master Lin would have wiped out the Yang family long ago.

Sigh! Qin was stronger than Shu, Han was from Shu, and during the Three Kingdoms Era, Zhuge Kongming faced off against one another. The first one was Longwang Wangshu. Everyone said that before the world was thrown into chaos, Shu would be the first to be thrown into chaos, and the world would not be able to calm down. This Shu Land was indeed a good place, but it should also be a place of trouble, just like this place outside the border.

Yang Guozhong had over forty positions, and with Yang Yuhuan supporting him, it was rare for him to have such great power. This time, he sent troops to the Nanzhao twice, so he should have stationed a lot of troops in the Shu Land.

Over the years, Sword Sect and Yang family had been playing games. I think, if it wasn't for the foundation of Sword Sect being stable. . . Alliance Master Lin and Young Master Lin's martial arts were strong and they had the entire martial arts world as their backing. I'm afraid that the Sword Sect is in dire straits now. If the Shu Land did not have the Sword Sect, the Yang family would be able to cover the sky with their bare hands. I think that at that time, this land of the Central Plains will be filled with more than just 'chaos'. There might be another way to 'seize the son of the heavens and order his vassals'. "
