In the Snow: The Prince of Beiliang Rebelled at the Beginning

Chapter 177: Southern Xinjiang Defeat

Nalan Youci was also slightly surprised when he heard this, and was even a little speechless. He stared at Zhao Zhu and said, "Your Highness, I think the best solution now is to fight Beiliang to the death."

"We have no way out."

"Even though we know it's impossible to go back to the past, we can't let our guard down."

"Beiliang's strength is no longer as simple as we imagined before."

Zhao Zhu sneered and said, "Beiliang is indeed very powerful, but it is not terrible."

Nalan Youci stared at Zhao Zhu and continued to ask, "What does your highness mean by this?"

It was the first time he heard the Crown Prince say this.

So I was a little surprised.

Zhao Zhu thought for a moment and continued, "Sir, I think Beiliang is still facing two embarrassing situations. One is from Beimang in the north, and the other is from our Nanjiang."

Nalan Youci was shocked.

Zhao Zhu continued, "Don't worry, sir. I, Zhao Zhu, will not cooperate with Beimang, because in my heart, I still hate Beimang."

"They are them. I am Zhao Zhu and I am Zhao Zhu. Our Southern Xinjiang is Southern Xinjiang. If we want to fight, we must fight to the death with Northern Liang instead of taking on Northern Mang."

"It's just that... the Northern Mang seems to be dealing with domestic affairs right now, so they are not in a hurry to march. We can also mobilize the Northern Mang."

It's not like Nalan Youci hasn't thought about this problem.

He shook his head and said, "Your Highness, it's not as simple as you think."

"How could Beimang listen to you?"

"They want to see us both lose, and then march south. By then, no matter whether it's Southern Xinjiang or Northern Liang, they will be attacked by Northern Mang."

"Anyway, for Beimang, it's all about watching the two tigers fight each other, and then sitting back and reaping the benefits."

Zhao Zhu also hesitated for a moment, then looked at Nalan Youci again.

Nalan Youci continued, "Your Highness, you have thought it through very carefully, but you must never say these words in front of the prince."

"You must not mention it in front of the generals and ministers, otherwise something terrible will happen."

"Now everyone in Southern Xinjiang wants to fight with Northern Liang. The military generals want to gain military merit, and the civil officials naturally hope that the prince will conquer the world. After all, if the world is conquered, they will be the civil officials who will govern the world in the future."

Zhao Zhu stared at Zha Nalan Youci and asked, "So what do you think, sir?"

Nalan Youci said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I have no other ideas, that is, to defeat Beiliang, stabilize our southern border, and gradually stabilize the overall situation in Liyang."

"Leave some strength for the future battle with Beimang."

"Otherwise, if we fight Beiliang with all our might and then get targeted by Beimang, that would not be a good thing."

Zhao Zhu nodded.

The two reached an unwritten agreement.

Moreover, both of them knew very well that there was no chance to retreat now.

The only option is to fight, and this battle must be won, not lost.

Otherwise, the entire southern Xinjiang will suffer.

Nalan Youci obviously did not express his worries. He did not want to ruin the Crown Prince's mood at this time.

As for what the future will be like, even he himself is not clear, so he should take it one step at a time and do it slowly.

As for that point, he no longer had the leisure to do so.

I just hope we can do better and not let Southern Xinjiang lose in an embarrassing way.

Zhao Zhu waved his hand.

Nalan Youci got off the carriage.

Zhao Zhu watched Nalan Youci return to his carriage, his face looking somewhat solemn.

Zhao Zhu shook his head.

Nalan Youci returned to his carriage with a serious expression on his face.

"Weird."

"Weird."

At this time, Nalan Youci also found it difficult to understand Zhao Zhu.

What Zhao Zhu said just now.

He had thought about it countless times in his mind, but never said it to anyone.

Or.

Zhao Zhu's worries were already on the minds of most generals and officials in southern Xinjiang.

It's just that at this time, no one dared to speak out.

Because to say these words, a condition must be added in front of it, and this condition is that we are going to have the first confrontation with Beiliang, and all the previous battles in the east are not the standard for measurement.

in contrast.

This duel was a contest between Crown Prince Zhao Zhu and the Northern Liang army.

If the prince and his army were defeated by the Northern Liang army, there would be no need for Southern Xinjiang to resist anymore.

after all.

The army led by Zhao Zhu was a capable and skilled fighter.

Moreover, I am the one who is making all the decisions. If I still cannot win, it will be harder than climbing to the sky to win in the future.

Thinking of this.

For the first time, Nalan Youci felt a little overwhelmed.

He leaned against the wall of the car.

a long time.

I couldn't help but sigh.

He murmured, "I don't know when it will end."

"And what other cards does Beiliang have that he hasn't played yet?"

"Five hundred thousand troops marched south just to deal with Nanjiang."

in fact.

This strategist knew best that although Southern Xinjiang claimed to have an army of 80, it actually had less than 40. Moreover, they had wanted the people of Southern Xinjiang to participate in the past, but because of the spies from Northern Mang going south, there were some rumors on the ground in Southern Xinjiang, which made the people of Southern Xinjiang uneasy, and it seemed that they no longer had much confidence in King Yanla of Southern Xinjiang.

It’s just that King Yanla did a very good job and treated the people of southern Xinjiang as usual.

There was no trouble.

This is the only way to control southern Xinjiang.

Nalan Youci was in a bad mood. If the problem was not resolved quickly, problems would still arise.

"We have to win this time."

"Even if we can't win, we can't lose."

Nalan Youci spoke with great confidence.

---------

Zhao Zhu was also in the carriage at this moment.

But the next moment.

There was a sneer on his face.

Not long after.

The expression on the face of the Prince of Southern Xinjiang became solemn.

The whole person's aura suddenly became somewhat unfamiliar at this time.

---------

Zhao Zhu led his army northward to fight against Li Jing's army.

However, when fighting against the Northern Liang army, they encountered a huge difficulty.

Zhao Zhu didn't expect this either.

In the first round, they were immediately blocked by the Beiliang army.

It even caused a panic.

In the opposite Beiliang army, one of the unnamed generals actually killed several generals from Southern Xinjiang.

Faced with huge losses, Zhao Zhu did not panic, but hurriedly retreated to rectify military discipline.

This day.

Zhao Zhu sat at the top, his face looking somewhat solemn.

The other people are sitting below.

Among them was Nalan Youci.

Nalan Youci did not speak.

The rest of the people were also silent.

Zhao Zhu also glanced at everyone.

at this time.

One of them cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, we can't just sit there and wait for death."

This immediately aroused unanimous agreement from others, and then there was a burst of discussion in the hall.

Countless people also volunteered to fight.

Zhao Zhu said: "Let's wait a little longer!"

however,

That's when.

Suddenly a scout came in from outside, knelt in front of Zhao Zhu, and handed him a military report.

Zhao Zhu finished reading quickly, and the others looked at him, waiting for what would happen next.

Zhao Zhu couldn't help but frowned slightly and said, "The sneak attack led to a great defeat."
