One Thousand Five Hundred and Fifty-Two: Failing Nieliang, Attacking Yang Tao, and Pointing at the World (90)
A few days later, Fan Chen and others returned with the remnants of the soldiers. Regardless of his injuries, he immediately went to see Nie Qing to plead guilty.
Nie Qing is now much thinner than before, and her original clothes look empty on her body.
When the other party stepped forward to help Fan Chen up, Fan Chen could feel how thin the other party's hands were.
Fan Chen said with red eyes, "I'm ashamed, I dare not get up. My lord has lost too much weight these days, so I beg you to take care of yourself."
How could Nie Qing really ask Fan Chen to plead guilty?
According to the limited information, Nie Qing carefully read the content of the battle of Zhanjiang Pass, and knew that the blame for the defeat could not be blamed on Fan Chen.
Under Nie Qing's insistence, Fan Chen got up tremblingly, and sat down on the mat with staggering steps.
Nie Qing carefully asked about the details of the battle at Zhanjiang Pass, and Fan Chen naturally knew more about it than the messenger.
After hearing Fan Chen's objective narration, Nie Qing's already pale face became even more ugly.
"I can't blame anyone for this defeat. We can only say that we missed a move. If we fail to calculate, we will be used instead."
Nie Qing also knew that if he could win the battle of Zhanjiang Pass, it would be equivalent to forcibly opening the gate to Dongqing. Another part of Jiang Pengji's force was held back by Yang Tao, and there was no time to return to help. It's a pity that if you take advantage of the opportunity, you may not be able to fully accept Jiang Pengji's influence.
Fan Chen said shamelessly, "This matter is still incompetent. If Liu Xi could be killed before the battle, maybe it wouldn't be..."
He described in detail how Jiang Pengji led troops to attack but stepped into a trap.
Because Jiang Pengji appeared on the front line, Fan Chen was sure that Jiang Pengji hadn't discovered their plot, let alone warned Wei Ying.
This was also the main reason why Fan Chen felt so guilty.
If he had discovered something was wrong earlier, if the soldiers and horses he commanded could kill the bandit leader, the result would have been different.
Nie Qing was silent after hearing this, and said after a while, "Using myself as a bait, this Lord Lanting is also a desperate person."
Not to mention Nie Qing, no hero in the world would dare to act like this.
However, when Nie Qing knew that the ambushes led by Fan Chen were twice as many as the enemy, but they were defeated in the end, his expression was extremely complicated.
When Fan Chen said that Jiang Pengji alone was worth half an army, Nie Qing suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
The theory that Jiang Pengji was the Son of Destiny became more and more serious. Even if Nie Qing didn't believe it before, she couldn't help but waver now.
He evoked a mocking arc, and said sneeringly, "How can a mortal fight against the sky."
The theory of fate is simply powerless, just like Beichen hundreds of years ago.
The ancestors of the Northern Chen royal family were just small princes with an army of 30,000 to 20,000, but their opponent was a giant who was about to win the world. There should have been no suspense, but meteorites and floods fell from the sky, which seriously injured one giant. , let the ancestors of Bei Chen pick up the bargain.
Manpower is sometimes exhausted, but God's will is hard to do.
How do mortals compete with the sky?
"My lord, why can't mortals fight for their lives with the heavens? The Former Lord was never afraid of this when he was alive." Fan Chen looked a bit sad and wronged, and said bluntly, "If the heaven really appointed Liu Xi, why bother to set off this troubled world? , causing countless people to lose their lives? Why not just throw the dragon chair in front of Liu Xi and let her enthroned as the emperor? Wouldn’t that be more convenient and quick? What is the destiny? Whoever wins in the end is the destiny The theory of fate is inaccurate! Liu Xi spreads everywhere that she is favored by the heavens, isn't he just trying to use this to disintegrate our fighting spirit and make us directly bow down to her? The guilty minister begs the lord to cheer up and plan future plans!"
These words fell to Nie Qing's ears, but they seemed to be deafening and enlightening, and they broke him out of his depressed mood.
"You're right... You must not admit defeat easily."
If he succumbed to the enemy who indirectly killed his relatives and returned to the underworld, what face would he have to meet his father and father-in-law?
Seeing this situation, Fan Chen secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Although they cheered up, the situation will not improve because of this. The forces attached to the Nie family are restless, and the Nie family also has the intention of splitting and becoming independent. Mrs. Nie's prestige is no longer valid,
The few remaining elders also began to have thoughts that they shouldn't have.
Counting from Mrs. Nie, Nie Qing belongs to the fourth generation of great-grandson of the Nie family, and has no advantage in seniority.
What frustrates him the most is that there are Nie Qing's grandfather and Nie Liang's father among this group of people, trying to force Nie Qing to hand over his power and soldiers with blood filial piety. During his lifetime, Nie Liang cleaned up a group of ambitious elders and peers, leaving out this biological father. No matter how cruel Nie Liang was, he couldn't even get his hands on his father. He just sent people to threaten and frighten his father so that his father would not dare to have thoughts that he shouldn't have.
Nie Liang's calculations are comprehensive, he is sure that Nie Qing has a strong army, even his own grandfather would not dare to use Qiao as a demon.
Unexpectedly, Nie Jun lost so badly, and his ambition came back to life.
Fortunately, Nie Qing's tough attitude did not let the opponent succeed.
Even so, the situation in Zhongzhao territory that had finally calmed down became chaotic again.
The little princes who were afraid of the Nie clan took advantage of the situation and divided up the fat occupied by the Nie clan. Everyone in the Nie clan wanted to take this opportunity to seize power from Nie Qing, and the forces attached to the Nie clan also had their own ideas...for a while, the situation Nie Qing felt like he was sitting on a flat boat, surrounded by a vast ocean, with howling winds, lightning and thunder, and the turbulent waves were about to tear him apart...
"Let's rest comfortably for a while, so that Zhongzhao can consume himself in the internal struggle."
Because of the chaos in the imperial edict, Jiang Pengji took the opportunity to pack hundreds of spies to inquire about the news, and received freshly released gossip information every once in a while. Just as Qi Guanrang and others analyzed, Zhongzhao is now a mess. Even though they all knew that Jiang Pengji was the biggest threat and they should form an alliance to resist her, only a few of them shouted slogans and did not put them into practice.
"They're all a bunch of mediocre people with short-sighted eyes." Jiang Pengji knows that people are profit-seeking, and she can't wait to take all the benefits of the world by herself. There are only a few people who are really clear-headed and able to resist the temptation of profits. Own……"
Regardless of ancient and modern times, it seems that this kind of talent is the majority.
Jiang Pengji remembered a mission in her previous life, going to an alien planet where war broke out to get a confidential document.
The rebels, the civilian army, and the official government army fought against each other and were hostile to each other.
When Jiang Pengji passed by, the civilian army gathered firepower to besiege a first-tier city occupied by the rebel army.
When the city was broken, there were not many rebels resisting, and more rebels went to negotiate, make peace, kill, drink, fight, gamble...
Even if the crisis is approaching, most mediocre people still look out for their own interests instead of learning to unite and fight the enemy to the death.
I don't know if it's the effect of awakening, but Jiang Pengji feels that it has become more and more difficult to meditate these days.
"Is there any progress in Zhangzhou?"
