Chapter 201 Enemies on all sides

Royal Palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Zhou Chen practices the Emperor's Divine Conferment Technique, and his aura is strong.

Bo...

It was as if a shackles were opened and things came naturally, Zhou Chen's aura was even stronger than before.

Zhou Chen opened his eyes and let out a long breath.

Feeling the power coming from his body, Zhou Chen couldn't help but curl up his lips.

"It won't be long before I can become a master."

Zhou Chen thought secretly in his heart.

During this practice, Zhou Chen gained a lot and made another breakthrough.

I believe it won’t be long before Zhou Chen can become a great master.

When the time comes, relying on the tyranny of the Emperor's God Conferring Technique, Zhou Chen will not be afraid at all even if he is a half-step heavenly being.

"Your Majesty, Governor Cao Shaoqin is asking for an audience outside the palace."

At this time, a chamberlain and factory guard came in to report.

"Let him in."

Zhou Chen put away his breath, glanced at the house guard and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The house guard and factory guard bowed and retreated.

moment.

Cao Shaoqin walked into the Yangxin Hall in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, news has come back from Xiliang that Mr. Jia and others have captured the Marquis of Xiliang and taken over the Xiliang army."

"However, Yumen Pass was broken by the Xirong."

"Emergency news also came from southern Xinjiang. The second adopted son of the patron king colluded with the southern barbarians and broke through the Nanmen Pass."

"Your Majesty, please take a look."

Cao Shaoqin hurriedly sent the two urgent messages in front of Zhou Chen.

What?

Xirong broke through Yumen Pass?

The Nanmen Pass in southern Xinjiang was also broken by the Nanman?

Zhou Chen's expression changed immediately when he heard Cao Shaoqin's report.

Yumen Pass is the barrier of Xiliang, and Nanmen Pass is the barrier of Southern Xinjiang.

Although the Great Zhou Dynasty has set its sights over the past few years, the only reason it can still block foreign invaders is because of these powerful passes.

But now, both Yumen Pass and Nanmen Pass have been breached by foreigners. This makes the emperor Zhou Chen not shocked.

Zhou Chen immediately took the two messages from Cao Shaoqin's hand, opened them, and read them.

The first thing Zhou Chen opened was the news from Xiliang.

Seeing the reason why Yumen Pass was breached in the news, Zhou Chen's face turned ugly for a while.

Zhou Chen did not expect that this foreign tribe from Xirong would break their long-standing agreement and send strong men like Banbu Tianren to attack the generals in the army.

No wonder it was possible to break through Yumen Pass.

There are half-step celestial beings who attack and kill the generals of the Xiliang Army in Yumen Pass. Once these generals of the Xiliang Army in Yumen Pass are alive and dead, the army will be in chaos.

If Xirong takes the opportunity to attack again, the Yumen Pass will definitely be broken by Xirong without any effort.

"It seems that these aliens have a plan for a long time."

Zhou Chen put down the news in his hand with an ugly expression, then picked up the emergency news from Southern Xinjiang and read it.

After Zhou Chen read the urgent news from southern Xinjiang, he slapped the Long case angrily.

"Asshole."

"It's so damned."

Zhou Chen's face was so gloomy that water could drip from his face.

Zhou Chen was extremely surprised that Zhou Zhan, the adopted son of the patron king Zhou Zhan, actually colluded with the Nanmen and broke through the Nanmen Pass, causing the tens of thousands of Nanmen Pass defenders to be wiped out.

The land of southern Xinjiang was completely exposed to the southern barbarian army.

This is simply a crime worthy of death.

What Zhou Chen hates most are traitors who cheat on others.

Especially when Zhou Chen saw the four words "will hunt the Central Plains" mentioned in the news, his eyes became even colder.

A mere foreigner dares to brazenly say that he wants to hunt the Central Plains. He is really looking for death.

"First Beidi knocked the Yanmen Pass, and now the Xirong and Nanman broke through the Yumen and Nanmen Passes. It seems that these alien races have secretly united together long ago."

Zhou Chen's eyes flickered coldly.

The two gates of Yumen and South Gate were broken, which directly disrupted Zhou Chen's layout.

Fortunately, the Marquis of Xiliang was captured, and the power of the Xiliang Army was also taken back.

With a large army, Zhou Chen would have the confidence to deal with these alien races.

Zhou Chen raised his eyes and looked at Cao Shaoqin: "Cao Shaoqin, immediately notify all officials to go to court and prepare for the court meeting."

Something big happened. The two border gates, Yumen and South Gate, were breached by foreigners. Zhou Chen had to hold a court meeting immediately.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Shaoqin bowed and immediately turned around and left the Yangxin Hall.

After Cao Shaoqin left, Zhou Chen looked at the words 'will hunt the Central Plains' on the southern Xinjiang news, and a trace of murderous intent flashed across his face.

Can you hunt the Central Plains?

"snort."

"I want you all to be buried in the Central Plains without ever coming back."

Zhou Chen said to himself with a cold light in his eyes.

…

Jinluan Palace.

The meeting begins.

All the officials walked into the Jinluan Hall one by one.

After Zhou Chen sat on the dragon chair, all the officials saluted together: "Long live your Majesty, long live long live."

All the officials knelt down and shouted.

Zhou Chen looked down at the civil and military officials; "All the ministers are safe."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Baiguan stood up, confused in his heart.

Today's morning meeting has already passed, and now His Majesty has suddenly summoned them all for a meeting. Could it be that something big happened?

Zhou Chen looked at the civil and military officials below, without hesitation, and said directly: "I just received news from the border pass that the Xirong invaded my country and broke through the Yumen Pass."

What?

The Xirong invaded the border and broke through Yumen Pass?

When all the officials heard the news, their faces all changed.

Yumen Pass is the gateway to the west of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Once the Yumen Pass is breached, the Xirong's cavalry will march straight into the west of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and even go straight into the hinterland of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

However, before Baiguan could recover from the news, Zhou Chen revealed another piece of news that shocked Baiguan.

"I have also received news from southern Xinjiang that the Nanmen have invaded the Nanmen Pass of our Great Zhou Dynasty. The Zhennan Army guarding Nanmen Pass has been completely wiped out, and the Nanmen Pass has been breached by the Nanmen."

As soon as this news came out.

All the civil and military officials no longer changed their expressions, but all took a breath of cold air.

If Yumen Pass was conquered by Xirong, it shocked all civil and military officials.

So when Nanmen Pass was breached by the Nanman, it not only shocked the civil and military officials, but also frightened them.

First, Yumen Pass was captured by Xirong.

Again, Nanmen Pass was captured by the Nanman.

All the civil and military officials present were not ordinary people, and they immediately smelled something different.

In addition, there was news from Northern Xinjiang that Beidi was knocking on Yanmen Pass, which made the officials' expressions change continuously.

It is clear.

I'm afraid this alien invasion is not that simple, but has been planned for a long time.

Moreover, they are still secretly united.

When they thought of this possibility, some ministers turned pale.

They know the current situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty all too well. Although there is a trend of returning to Zhongxing, it is still at the trough of sunset.

At the same time, it had to face the joint attack of three foreign races, and Da Zhou did not have enough strength to resist it.

After Zhou Chen finished telling these two pieces of news, he glanced at Cao Shaoqin who was standing next to him: "Cao Shaoqin, read the news from the border to all the officials."

When Cao Shaoqin heard this, he took a step forward and read out the news from the border.

After hearing the news that Cao Shaoqin read out, all the officials were filled with indignation.

Xirong broke the promise and allowed the Half-Step Heavenly Man to attack and kill the general guarding the gate. This was extremely shameless in the eyes of all the officials.

Also, the adopted son of the patron king of Southern Xinjiang actually colluded with the Nanman and betrayed the patron king and the Great Zhou Dynasty.

He is simply not a son of man.

However, what the officials didn't expect was that the emperor Zhou Chen actually took over the Xiliang Marquis and took over the Xiliang army quietly.

This is good news for the court.

After Cao Shaoqin finished reading the two pieces of news from the border pass, Zhou Chen raised his eyes and looked at the officials; "You have all heard the news from the border pass. Yumen Pass and Nanmen Pass were conquered by aliens. All your dear friends, tell me about this.

How should we deal with it?”

The faces of all the civil and military officials were extremely cautious.

This matter is no small matter, and it is different from the past.

The foreign tribes jointly invaded the Zhou Dynasty and had already broken through the Yumen Gate in Xiliang and the Nanmen Gate in Southern Xinjiang.

If you don't handle this well, it will plunge the Zhou Dynasty into war.

"Your Majesty, our great Zhou Dynasty has just experienced turmoil and rebellion. There have been droughts in the north, and the Shenwu Guards have also suffered heavy losses."

"The Great Zhou Dynasty can no longer withstand turmoil, nor can it withstand wars."

"The people of Da Zhou need to rest and recuperate."

"Therefore, I believe that envoys should be sent out immediately to the foreign tribes to discuss the matter of stopping the war."

An old minister stood up and said.

When other ministers heard what the veteran said, they all stood up and agreed with the veteran's suggestion.

The current situation of Dazhou is indeed weak. Even if it takes over the power of the Zhenbei Army and the Xiliang Army, it will have no advantage in the face of the invasion of the alien alliance.

Once a large-scale war breaks out, the consequences are unpredictable.

"Fart, the aliens have already broken through the Yumen and South Gates, how can they stop the war?"

A military general stood up and said angrily.

"Your Majesty, the last general invites you to fight."

"Please fight to the death."

"The foreign races have already broken through the Yumen and South Gates of my Great Zhou Dynasty, and have reached the doorstep of my Great Zhou Dynasty."

"If I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, compromise and do not make any counterattack, then where will my majesty after the Great Zhou Dynasty remain?"

"I, Da Zhou, are no better than before, but I don't hesitate to fight."

The general said loudly to Zhou Chen who was sitting on the dragon throne.

"That's right, Your Majesty, I will not hesitate to fight."

"The general and others are asking for a fight, please fight to the death."

One by one, the generals stood up and said loudly.

When the veteran minister who spoke first saw these generals asking for a fight, he blew his beard angrily and glared, "Martial men, you know how to praise the bravery of an ordinary man and beat him."

"Waging a war requires money and food, an army, and sufficient backing."

"My situation in Dazhou has just stabilized a bit. Once a war breaks out, no matter what the final result is, I, Dazhou, will be dragged into the abyss. I don't know how many years it will take to recover."

Hearing this, the general snorted coldly, "That's better than aggrieved and asking for peace, bowing to the aliens."

"The spine of my great Zhou general is not bent yet."

As soon as the general's words came out, the faces of the civil servants suddenly turned red.

The general's spine is not curved.

Then are the spines of their civil servants bent?

Isn't this a clear-cut mockery of their civil servants?

"enough."

Zhou Chen scolded him sternly, stopped the quarrel between the two parties, and looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War and the others: "Li Yuan, you are the Minister of the Ministry of War, how do you think we should deal with this matter?"

The Minister of War pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the foreign tribes jointly attacked our great Zhou Dynasty and broke through our peripheral passes. It is obvious that the foreign tribes came well prepared."

"It would be very difficult to send envoys to stop the war."

"Unless I pay compensation for ceding land, it will be an unimaginable price."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible for the foreign tribes to stop their troops."

"So, I think we should first find a way to paralyze and resist the attack of the Southern Barbarians, and then use all our strength to deal with the Xirong."

"After we have dealt with the Xirong, we can then turn around and deal with the Nanman."

The Minister of War expressed his thoughts one by one.

After Zhou Chen heard this, he didn't say anything, but looked at Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

"Your Majesty, the alien races have jointly invaded our country, the Zhou Dynasty, and their purpose is very clear. They will hunt the Central Plains."

"Beidi, Xirong, and Southern Barbarians have all sent out troops, and I estimate that Dongyi should be no exception."

"What I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, will face is a joint attack by foreign races from all directions. Based on the current situation of my Great Zhou Dynasty, it is a bit difficult to start a war on all sides."

"I agree with Li Shangshu's idea. I will break two of them first and defeat them one by one."

Seeing Zhou Chen looking over, Fang Xuanling didn't hesitate, stood up and said.

Fang Xuanling's words made the officials' expressions become even more solemn.

Now Beidi, Xirong, and Southern Barbarians have all sent out troops. If Dongyi also sends troops to attack Donghuang.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was surrounded by enemies and war on all sides.

There was no trace of surprise on Zhou Chen's face at Fang Xuanling's words.

From the moment the news came back from Xiliang and Southern Xinjiang, Zhou Chen had already guessed that the foreign races from all around had united and Dongyi would definitely send troops.

Immediately afterwards, Du Ruhui and Liu Ye also spoke up and gave their own suggestions.

After Zhou Chen listened to Du Ruhui's suggestion, he pondered for a moment and said directly: "Cao Shaoqin, draft a decree to make Lu Bu the General of Zhenbei and Zhang Liao as the General of Zhenxi, and take charge of the Zhenbei Army and the Xiliang Army."

"I have sent the decree to Lu Bu and Zhang Liao. If the foreign tribes come to the gate, I don't care how they use their troops."

"I only want one result, and that is that anyone who offends me will be punished."

Zhou Chen said coldly.

This can be regarded as Zhou Chen's official canonization of Lu Bu and Zhang Liao to take over the Zhenbei Army and the Xiliang Army and serve as the chief generals of the Zhenbei Army and the Xiliang Army.

"besides."

"Send a decree to the patron king and ask him to return to southern Xinjiang immediately to guard southern Xinjiang and block the footsteps of the southern barbarians for me."

Zhou Chen said again.

After the Nanmen Pass was broken, Zhou Chen immediately asked his backer king Zhou Zhan to return to Southern Xinjiang to take charge of the overall situation of Southern Xinjiang and resist the attack of the Southern Barbarians.

"Send an order to the Marquis of Donghuang and ask him to guard Donghuang for me. If Dongyi breaks the barrier, I will question him."

Since it was already guessed that Dongyi would also send troops, Zhou Chen had to give an order to the Marquis of Donghuang.

Let Donghuanghou guard Dongyan Pass and block Dongyi's attack.

On the Great Monday, the kings and three marquises guarded the four border passes, and the Marquis of Donghuang guarded Dongyan Pass to resist Dongyi.

Zhou Chen made several decrees in succession.

With enemies on all sides, this battle is related to the rise and fall of Great Zhou's destiny.

Zhou Chen knew this, and so did all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Therefore, after Zhou Chen's decree was issued, the entire imperial court quickly started to prepare for the upcoming war.
