Murong Zhuo was left speechless for a long time by Liu Fang cruel words.
He knew that this country was in ruins, but when he faced the reality, he still felt angry and desolate. A country that could not even guarantee the survival of its people, and could not even feed the soldiers guarding the border.
That kind of country was really coming to an end.
Both of them sat opposite each other in silence. They remained silent until the tea was completely cold.
After a while, Murong Zhuo calmed down and asked slowly: “What does Miss Liu want me to do?”
Liu Fang raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
Murong Zhuo smiled bitterly and said: “Although I am the crown prince, I have a bad reputation. Lecherous and absurd. I am afraid that I am unable to do anything for you, the people on the frontier, and the soldiers. However, as long as you spoke, I was willing to do what I could for the soldiers and the peoples on the frontier, so that they could have enough to eat in the future and protect their only remaining way of survival. My treasury is quite abundant. After returning to the capital, I will send people to purchase food and supplies and deliver them to you. ”
Liu Fang smiled. If this person were to be the emperor in the future, the Dayan Kingdom could still be saved!
She liked this pretty boy in front of her. He was beautiful and had a beautiful heart!
She shook her head slowly and said to Murong Zhuo: “Your Highness does not need to spend any money. After returning to the capital, you can continue to be a ridiculous crown prince…However, there is one thing that I hope the prince will cooperate with. ”
Murong Zhuo was stunned and looked at her with confusion, “Do you not believe in me?”
Liu Fang shook her head again, “No. On the contrary, I think His Highness is excellent. He is a responsible and qualified Crown Prince.”
What could be the reason for a passionate prince to become a lustful, ridiculous and notorious person?
Thinking with her toes, Liu Fang can think of N reasons.
But, none of this matters.
The important thing was this crown prince must live well and ascend to the future throne safely. This was the key point.
The future was the most important thing.
For the current situation?
Liu Fang had a plan, so let’s leave it to her for now.
She now has the entire army and civilians of Liucheng behind her, as well as the entire people of Dayan Kingdom!
She has the capital to fight with the aloof Emperor!
She discussed it with Murong Zhuo in a low voice. After hearing this, Murong Zhuo raised his eyebrows and looked at the thirteen-year-old, stunningly beautiful woman in front of him with admiration: “Awesome!”
“You must know that once you do this, the emperor and the entire court will be afraid of you. And even if you can achieve your goal, It will lead to endless fights! ”
Liu Fang smiled slightly and said confidently: “I am just here to fight them! That’s interesting, isn’t it? ”
For this mission, she decided to use all the energy she had to have a good fight with the people here!
Her mother, brothers and sisters on her first mission taught her a lot of things, but she hasn’t put them to good use yet. This time, she would give it a try and see if she could live a wonderful life without regrets in ancient times!
Isn’t it just a fight? Come on, who is afraid of who!
Seeing this, Murong Zhuo looked into her eyes and suddenly smiled, saying: “I will wait and see. I really want to see the expressions on those people when you come to the capital. ”
Liu Fang smiled and said, “Your Highness will not be disappointed.”
The two looked at each other and smiled, showing a perfect understanding.
Hongbao was listening, feeling really scared. It would be a disaster for the officials in the capital to have these two people get together.
However, he was looking forward to it. (＞ｙ＜)
Liu Fang suddenly looked at Hongbao and saw that his body froze. She said to Murong Zhuo, “Are the people around Your Highness really trustworthy?”
Murong Zhuo looked at Hongbao, who had stiffened up and turned pale with fright. He suppressed a smile and nodded, “Well, it’s still trustworthy.”
Liu Fang nodded lightly and turned away. Hongbao breathed a sigh of relief and silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: He was scared to death. (ㄒoㄒ)
Liu Fang felt amused in her heart, but she didn’t show it. She took the kettle from the stove, poured some hot water for Murong Zhuo and herself, and warmed up the tea in the cup again.
“Your Highness, starting today, you can ask the people below to investigate.”
Murong Zhuo nodded and said, “Well, don’t worry. I will arrange it. However, I was still curious: How did you find out about the barbarians’ plan?”
Liu Fang calmly put down the kettle, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, “I guessed it.”
Murong Zhuo was surprised, “Guess?”
Liu Fang nodded, “Un, I just guessed.”
Murong Zhuo couldn’t believe it, “How did you guess this?”
Liu Fang smiled, “I grew up here, and every winter, barbarian cavalry would come. I am thirteen this year, and for the past ten years or so, not to mention when I was younger, but ever since I can remember, the barbarian cavalry has never sent more than a thousand soldiers each time. This is one of them. Secondly, I know what their average level is. The barbarian cavalry is indeed powerful. Facing ten opponents with just one. There is no problem in dealing with Liucheng’s soldiers. But, not every barbarian cavalry can do it. After all, everyone has different physiques and talents, so differences are normal. Therefore, in the past, they used to be a team of ten people, roaming flexibly in the villages outside the city and disturbing the surrounding people. Even if they attacked the city, it only took an hour or two. It is absolutely impossible to launch a surprise attack in the middle of the night and directly destroy the city. The third is that their teams are too concentrated, attacking the city with all their strength, and killing the soldiers and civilians without mercy. This situation is completely different from the past: in the past, they only focused on robbing women, children, gold and silver treasures. This time, they only focused on killing the soldiers and civilians. This behavior was obviously unusual. Lastly, they were in too much of a hurry. They tried their best and used deadly moves, none of the soldiers and civilians could withstand their attacks. This clearly indicated their intention to destroy the city. Therefore, I guess they really want to capture Liucheng this time and kill all the soldiers and civilians. ”
She slowed down and took another sip of tea. Seeing Murong Zhuo listening thoughtfully, she continued: “Then, why did they want to occupy Liucheng? And why do they want to kill all the Dayan people? It’s very simple. There must be a large number of barbarians following behind. Otherwise, what’s the point of them taking down an empty city? It must be so that his people can come over and live directly in this empty city, ending their life of wandering on the grasslands outside the city. That being the case, how could a mere Liucheng accommodate all the barbarian tribes and all their people? They are not just one tribe, but several different tribes united together. Therefore, I guessed that they must be attacking the other two border towns. In this way, they can allocate their respective territories and continue to maintain their alliance to attack the Dayan Kingdom. ”
Liu Fang put down the tea cup, poured another cup of hot water, drank it, and continued: “That’s it. It’s normal for them to have a large army following them. Even if a mere 30,000 elite troops captured three cities, they would not be able to defend them. A large force with follow-up support must come over and allocate manpower to guard the city, so that they can truly preserve the fruits of their victory. As for me, as long as I can hold back the main force behind, even if the elite troops who have already arrived can fight a hundred to one. Our three hundred thousand strong garrison in the three cities will be able to resist, even annihilate them. ”
There was no need to say more about the rest, Murong Zhuo also understands.
“But, how did you hold them back?”
Liu Fang smiled and said, “It’s very simple. The barbarians have always looked down on Dayan and feel that our soldiers were weak in force. As long as I went and blocked them alone, their commander would be suspicious. Just to dispel his own doubts, he would be more cautious and send formidable generals to battle me first. As long as he sends someone to fight me one-on-one, I can delay the time. By the time he reacts, it will be too late. ”
Murong Zhuo nodded, “But what if they weren’t fooled?”
Liu Fang smiled and said: “I have already arranged a back-up plan to ensure that they will be chasing after me. As long as their attention is on me, my delaying tactics will be effective.”
The crowd was swarming, Didn’t she know how to run away?
Moreover, she also has people lying in ambush there, and she has more than one plan prepared, which can always delay them for a while.
And as long as she can hold them back, she’s halfway to victory, and the remaining half can only be achieved by the concerted efforts of Liucheng’s soldiers.
At that moment, she was also powerless, only able to leave it to fate!
In the end, it was proved that Liucheng’s soldiers were really powerful!
If they can get enough time to recuperate, have enough armaments, and enough food to eat their fill.
They would be absolutely terrifying!
Therefore, in this battle, what others saw was Liu Fang’s extraordinary emergence and incredible martial arts skills.
But in Liu Fang’s view, she only accounted for thirty% of the reasons for this battle. The remaining seventy% was due to the fearless sacrifices of the defenders in Liucheng and the other two cities, and the good luck on the Huicheng side.
Although the generals in Liangcheng and Huicheng were paid empty wages, the root cause lay in the greediness of the higher-ups, and used inferior goods as good ones.
If they were like Liu Da, she was afraid the soldiers below would be like those in Liucheng.
In the end, even Liangcheng couldn’t withstand the elite barbarian troops with half its men sacrificed, nor could it protect the city until the reinforcements sent by Liu Fang arrived.
Don’t think that just because Liangcheng suffered heavy losses, their deputy generals did nothing. It’s just that they were also helpless in such a situation.
He also wanted to train his troops peacefully and defend the city, but reality wouldn’t allow it.
That was all he could do.
The same was true for Huicheng.
Although these two cities were not in constant war like Liucheng, they were not completely peaceful either.
If those who did nothing led the defense, the elite barbarian troops wouldn’t have been stopped outside.
After all these years, it was impossible for these two cities to remain safe and sound until now.
So, don’t be fooled by the fact that the generals in those two cities were paid on an empty basis, and come from prominent families. They were also genuinely serving as soldiers and doing their jobs properly.
At least, in terms of fending off external enemies and defending the country, the generals of these two cities were in agreement with Liu Fang.
As for people, that’s it. They might not necessarily like a little girl like Liu Fang.
Therefore, we need to look at the problem objectively. Just because someone was drawing a salary without fulfilling their duties didn’t mean they’re a corrupt official or something.
It’s also important to consider why they’re corrupt, isn’t it?
If they were simply indulging themselves for personal pleasure, then they deserved to be beaten to death.
But if there were other reasons, that’s a different matter.
Of course, Liu Fang did not agree with their approach.
In the current state of governance of the Dayan Kingdom, it was really difficult to be a law-abiding official.
