Chapter 3970: The king is invited
The news of the arrival of the Jin army once plunged Cheliji into panic. A hundred thousand troops went to Liangzhou, but failed to bring back any good news. Only a few thousand soldiers returned to Xiqiang.
It was a heavy blow. For this war, the Xiqiang Kingdom had worked hard for many years.
The weapons of a hundred thousand troops were a huge drain on the Xiqiang. Not only that, Prime Minister Yadan and Marshal Yueji were missing.
After being angry, Cheriji felt panic. The failure of the army meant that the Western Qiang State's troops would not only fail to bring the so-called benefits to the Western Qiang State, but would also anger the Jin State. It is very likely that the Jin State would send troops.
Attacking the Western Qiang Kingdom, what kind of turmoil will be caused in the Western Qiang after the arrival of the Jin army.
Since the defeat of the army, Cheriji has been living in fear. He is worried about the arrival of the Jin army and strengthens the defense of the city. At this time, the five thousand troops in the city were recruited by Cheriji with great effort.
.
The failure of the war greatly reduced Cheliji's prestige among the Xiqiang people. Some people hid directly after learning about the recruitment of soldiers. They did not have enough confidence in Cheliji.
Under such circumstances, Cheriji was quite helpless.
Cheliji had many regrets in his heart. If he had not listened to the Jiangdong envoy and surrendered to the Jin State with the strength of the Western Qiang State, he would have received good treatment. However, now the Western Qiang State has become the opposite of the Jin State.
With the arrival of the Jin army, Cheriji could feel the panic among the generals. The Jin army had defeated the powerful Xiqiang army. Especially the Xiqiang soldiers who had experienced that war had a lingering fear of the Jin army.
, the Jin army's methods gave people the feeling of being like gods.
What would be the consequences of fighting an army like this?
When the troops came to the city, Cheliji was also in a panic. If possible, he definitely wanted to keep the Western Qiang Kingdom. After all, he was also the king of the Western Qiang. If the Western Qiang Kingdom was destroyed, it would become the Jin Army.
Prisoners of soldiers.
Just as he was thinking about how to make a bigger difference in this confrontation, the soldiers came to report, and Yadan entered the city.
Cheliji was overjoyed. Although the Xiqiang army failed in the battle against the Jin army, Cheliji still relied a lot on Yadan. At this critical moment, Yadan came to the city and would definitely give more help to the Xiqiang.
Prime Minister Yadan is a famous wise man among the Xiqiang people. In the past, if Cheliji had something he didn’t understand, he would ask Yadan about it. When the army went to war, he asked Yadan to accompany him in the hope that Yadan’s wisdom would make the Xiqiang people happy.
The army made greater achievements against the Jin army.
"Let the prime minister come quickly." Cheriji's voice was full of urgency. After the Jin army came, Yadan entered the city. It can be seen that Yadan and the Jin army came together. Through Yadan, we can learn more about
Regarding the situation of the Jin army, this will be of great help to the next war. In any case, Yadan is from Xiqiang and will definitely help the Xiqiang country at the critical moment.
The important officials and generals of Xiqiang gathered in the palace one after another. They had already learned the news of the arrival of the Jin army. Especially the fighting spirit shown by the Jin army after they set up their formation outside the city gave people an extremely terrifying feeling. Compared with this
If an army of Xiqiang were to fight, would the current strength of the Xiqiang army be enough to defeat it?
After the failure of the battle with the Jin army, although Cheriji made a lot of preparations, will the actual battle have any impact on the preparations of the Western Qiang Kingdom?
Thinking back to the time when the Xiqiang army, which numbered 100,000, invaded Liangzhou and was defeated by the Jin army, we can get news from the soldiers who came back that the number of soldiers and horses dispatched by the Jin army was far less than that of the Xiqiang army.
Although there are only a few thousand Jin troops outside the city now, the pressure they put on the Xiqiang people is huge. You can imagine what kind of difficulties they will have in fighting the Jin army.
But in this battle, the Xiqiang had no more choices. The invasion of the Xiqiang army would definitely make the Jin State angry, and the Jin State's anger required a war.
The news that Yadan returned to the city quickly spread among the officials. When it comes to understanding the Jin army, no one in Xiqiang knows it better than Yadan. He has lived in Chang'an for a long time and accompanied the Jin army.
When the army came, what they felt along the way was the strength of the elite Jin army.
Returning to the capital again, Yadan also had a lot of emotions in his heart. However, after seeing the situation in the city, Yadan frowned. Perhaps he was used to it in Chang'an. Even when he became a prisoner, the prison cell he lived in was still
Not bad.
But after returning to the capital of Xiqiang, everything didn't feel so good to Yadan, but after all, Xiqiang was a place of fertility, and the purpose of Yadan's trip to the city was to attend to the Jin envoys.
The Jin State sent a team of envoys to demonstrate the majesty of the Jin State, but the size of the Jin State's envoy team was enough to bring greater turmoil to the Western Qiang.
At this time, the combat effectiveness of the Jin army cannot be measured by the number of the Jin army. The Jin army has weapons of war. According to Zang Ba's words, he only needs to issue an order to collapse the capital of Xiqiang. This
How confident they are, how difficult it would be for the Xiqiang army and the Jin army to win in a head-on battle without the city.
Yadan had a deep understanding of the fighting power of the Jin army. The number and morale of the Xiqiang army at that time were not comparable to those of the current Xiqiang. However, in the process of fighting against the Jin army, they still suffered the price of failure. With the Xiqiang
With the strength of the army, it is basically impossible to achieve greater success in resisting the Jin army.
The arrival of the Jin army this time was not as simple as sending an envoy to the Western Qiang Kingdom. It must have had other purposes.
If possible, it would be best if the Western Qiang Kingdom could be preserved.
Yadan returned to the palace with a heavy heart. The familiar palace carried many of Yadan's efforts in the past.
"Prime Minister, the king has invited you, please come quickly." A guard quickly ran over and whispered.
Yadan nodded. He could understand how anxious Cheriji was at this moment. If the Jin army was strong and could not achieve greater results in this battle, the most likely situation would be that of the Western Qiang Kingdom.
How much suffering will the people of Xiqiang endure when their country is destroyed and cannot even exist?
From the title of the palace guard, Yadan could see that Cheriji and the Xiqiang officials still respected him.
