The arrival of the Imperial Envoys was not publicized, or even kept secret from outsiders.

Dai Wang Xiangcheng certainly knew that the more he did, the more he understood that the imperial envoy must have come with a special mission.

In order to cooperate, he also chose a side hall to meet the imperial envoy, and did not call other officials.

"I've met Dai Wang. I'm the special envoy of your majesty, Ruan Yishui."

Xiang Cheng looks at the imperial envoy in front of him and frowns slightly.

He is too young. He looks only in his early twenties. He has a white face and a sense of childishness. At this age, he can only be regarded as a little boy in officialdom, but this one is already an imperial envoy.

"Ruan Yishui?"

This surname has no big family in Shouchun. What's the situation?

Thoughts flashed.

Xiang Cheng said, "Mr. Ruan is so old to take this responsibility. He is deeply trusted by his majesty and has a bright future."

He didn't look down on him because he was young.

Because to despise him is to despise your majesty.

Since it's the one chosen by your majesty, it should not be bad

"I'm just entrusted by your majesty to do errands for your majesty."

Ruan Yishui is respectful.

"Sit down, please."

When the two sides sat down, Xiang Cheng didn't exchange too much greetings, but went straight to the point.

"I don't know if Lord Ruan came here with his Majesty's explanation?"

Ruan Yishui said: "I did bring your Majesty's imperial command. He asked the Daiwang not to defend the enemy, but to retreat directly, creating a situation in which he was afraid of war and gave up daiguo, just like the situation in Yuan Dynasty..."

"What?"

Xiang Cheng thought that he had heard wrong. He was surprised and said, "Mr. Ruan, are you kidding?"

"No

Ruan Yi said quietly: "what I'm talking about is your Majesty's mouth. This is your Majesty's order."

He bit the word "order" very hard.

This means that there is no discussion and it must be carried out!

"Give up Dai Guo?"

Xiang Cheng said: "now the enemy countries are attacking vigorously. Many vassals are lost. Of course, many people are afraid of war and retreat. Even like Xiang Tai, they directly throw themselves at the enemy..."

"But I, Xiang Cheng, don't mean that. You can tell your majesty that I am willing to defend the enemy with all my strength, and I am willing to fight the enemy to the death as much as possible. No matter what the result is, if the enemy wants to attack until Shouchun, he must step on the body of the king!"

Xiang Cheng thought that it was the imperial envoy sent by his majesty to try on purpose.

He directly expressed his position, which is not a sign of loyalty, but his real idea, not only for the country, but also for himself.

Dai state is his vassal state and the inheritance of his ancestors. How can he abandon it?

"The heart of acting king can shine on the sun and the moon. Your majesty has no doubt about your loyalty."

Ruan Yishui said, "the reason why your majesty ordered you to do this is to implement a major strategy."

"Major strategy?"

Xiang Cheng is even more confused.

"That's right."

Ruan Yishui asked: "in your opinion, what's the situation of my big Chu now? What are the future results? "

"You can speak up, but it doesn't matter."

Xiang Cheng calmed down and said, "the future is uncertain."

"Here it is."

Ruan Yishui said: "to tell you the truth, as far as the present situation is concerned, I think the situation in Chu is really in crisis!"

"The enemy's strategy is already very obvious. The five routes attack Shouchun together. Now it is in full swing. Where it passes, it is invincible. At the same time, it incites the people and bewitches them in every way. The situation is quite ineffective to us!"

Xiang Cheng nodded. He knew that was the truth.

The enemy is too fierce.

Up to now, the northwest, southwest and other areas have been occupied by the enemy, and the people have risen up to overthrow the Chu Dynasty in the name of uprising. There is chaos everywhere, just like a mess

Ruan Yishui then said, "it's Wang Kang, the commander of the enemy army, who is going to attack daiguo. You must know how powerful he is."

"I know."

Xiang Cheng has a dignified face.

The name of Wang Kang is very popular in the state of Chu. For these princes, it is a nightmare

His record is brilliant!

No one thought that the powerful state of Chu would come to the present.

And all this is because of him!

More than two million Chu soldiers were defeated by him.

The same is true, which makes the state of Chu go into decline

"Dai Wang, are you sure to defeat Wang Kang, or hold on?"

Ruan Yishui this question, let Xiang Cheng not from a stagnation.

He can't answer because he's not sure!

"Now Wang Kang is leading nearly 300000 troops, which is just like a rainbow of momentum!""So what?"

Xiang Cheng said directly: "is it because of this that we avoid fighting and keep giving in? I admit that I can't win by myself, but we can fight together and find a way..."

"Don't get me wrong."

Ruan Yishui said: "I just want to say that such persistence is meaningless. You should also be aware of the current situation. In the battle of Changning and the collapse of millions of imperial reinforcements, it is no longer difficult to organize large-scale military resistance."

"So you're going back?"

Xiang Cheng said angrily: "the more this time, the more can not retreat?"

"To be exact, it's just a temporary retreat!"

"What do you mean?"

Ruan Yishui said: "this is the strategy formulated by your majesty. Retreat for a while, avoid the attack, create a situation for the enemy that our great Chu is dead, paralyze them and confuse them..."

"What's the answer?"

Xiang Cheng doubted: "to avoid the enemy's edge without fighting is to retain strength, but where can we retreat?"

"If you retreat again, the enemy will fight to the end of life!"

"That's right."

Ruan Yishui said in a deep voice: "it's just to put the enemy in Shouchun. They can easily attack Shouchun. At this time, we should concentrate all our strength to counter encircle it. In this way, we can solve the enemy!"

I heard that.

Xiang Cheng was surprised and said: "so retreat for the time being, just to save strength?"

"That's right."

Ruan Yishui's amazing words.

"King Xiang of the Yuan Dynasty rose and died in Xianghe city. His eldest son inherited the throne and fled directly. In fact, he was ordered by his majesty. Since the war is going on, it will only increase the casualties, so it's better to avoid the war and retreat?"

"This is also a matter of course. The enemy will not doubt that the Chu state is in chaos and that the princes and kings are rebellious and self reliant. In fact, this is the layout of your majesty!"

"You mean

Xiang Cheng was surprised and said, "is the independence of the state of Li and the state of Shen false?"

"Of course!"

Ruan Yishui opened his mouth and said, "Li and Shen, as princes and kings with different surnames, how can they stand on their own

"But it's also because of the foreign surname that people don't suspect and are more realistic."

"Why? Why is it so? It's not an opportunity for the enemy? "

Ruan Yishui said in a low voice: "Your Majesty said that the former state of Chu was too strong and easy to break, but now it is to show the enemy that he is weak..."
