Before Chen Anzheng finished speaking, he saw his father looking at him with a frown on his face. He calmed down his mind and slowly said after thinking: "Zhuang Chengrong is ruthless in what he does, so we have to guard against him jumping over the wall. I, Dong Chen, have already secured the victory."

, even for the sake of the morale of our army, we cannot withdraw our troops hastily. The Yudai River is in the hands of Daqi, so it is not easy to nip it in the bud. In my son’s opinion, it is really not possible. The worst is to kill them all, and send people to guard it.

As long as he dares to release the water, he will fight to the death to bring the water back to Daqi. This will not only hit Daqi but also give us a chance to breathe."

King Chen nodded and sighed: "That's all we can do now. You immediately discuss with people where to send the troops and make arrangements as soon as possible, so that we can attack Daqi with peace of mind and with all our strength. We must capture Yudai Mountain before sunset tomorrow. I hope Commander Zhu

We can restrain Zhuang Chengrong from resorting to such destructive methods."

Chen Anzheng hurriedly summoned his advisers to discuss the matter, and it was not until almost dawn that everything was ready.

As soon as day broke, the Sixth Prince led five hundred soldiers and rushed to meet Yang Yuan and the others.

Yang Yuan reported to the Six Emperors: Uncle Yu has been notified, and he will mark the front so that the dead soldiers can follow them all the way.

The Sixth Prince nodded in approval: "This method is very appropriate. When you get there with the soldiers, find a way to integrate with the Dongchen soldiers as soon as possible to plan for the future, and those dead soldiers are highly skilled in martial arts, and some things will be handled by them, one by one.

Darker, the effect is better."

After the arrangements were made, the Sixth Prince did not go back to the barracks, but took him back to his mansion in the city, and said to Shen Qiujun: "I ran around all day yesterday to pick out soldiers at night. I didn't sleep all night. I have to have a good rest today.

.”

Shen Qiujun was courteous and flattering, and personally waited on the Six Emperors before they went to bed. He then smiled and said, "If everything goes well, you will be a great favor to these tens of thousands of people and soldiers."

The Sixth Prince hummed: "Who cares? If you really want to talk about the benefactor, it is also yours, but don't be too proud. Things always happen in this world. The ones who come out to turn the tide are heroes, but who knows about the people who take precautions for a rainy day?

How can you still come out and make a noise when others say it’s false?”

Shen Qiujun said hurriedly: "People are always doing things in this world. God is watching, and God is clear about things that the world doesn't know."

The Sixth Prince closed his eyes and said: "I don't believe in these things. If God really has eyes, there would be no such injustices in this world. They are all used by people with purpose to bluff people."

Because Shen Qiujun was reborn once, he had no doubts about the things about gods and ghosts. As for the sixth prince's disbelief in gods and ghosts, it was deeply ingrained and he couldn't persuade him. Seeing that the sixth prince's eyes were sleepy, he stopped talking and just worked quietly aside.

own affairs.

Little did they know that at this time, Dong Chen had already concentrated his forces to besiege Yudai Mountain. Waiting until noon, the Daqi soldiers said to General Zhu: "Dong Chen is determined to capture Yudai Mountain in one fell swoop. Based on the current situation.

Look, don’t say five days, I’m afraid I can stick to it for two days. I wonder if we need to plan in advance?”

Zhu Zongbing felt sad in his heart. He originally thought that if he delayed in the past few days, reinforcements would arrive and the flooding method could be cancelled. Although the sixth prince was responsible for the flooding, he felt really guilty for this.

My parents, I feel sorry for my conscience.

The counselors felt uncomfortable when they saw this, but after weighing the pros and cons, they still had to advise: "It is better to prepare in advance, otherwise Yudai Mountain will fall and King Chen will be able to flood the Qi Dynasty if he wants to cut the knot quickly. However,

This matter needs to be given by the Sixth Prince in person, otherwise with his cunning, he may not be able to blame the whole matter on the Lord."

Zhu Zongbing sighed: "Man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Depending on the situation of the war, I'm afraid I have to do something tonight, otherwise I don't know what will happen tomorrow. Forget it, I'll order someone to invite His Highness to come quickly."

The Sixth Prince was surprised when he learned that the battle situation had worsened and that Dong Chen was attacking with all his strength. He asked the people who had come over carefully and said, "You guys go down and have a rest first. I will make some arrangements and then go back together."

Shen Qiujun was listening. She thought of what happened in her previous life. When the news that the Sixth Prince flooded Dongchen came to the capital, the news about the impeachment of General Zheng also entered the capital. She couldn't help but secretly guessed: "Dongchen The sudden attack at all costs must be because our reinforcements are about to arrive. He was afraid of failing, so he made a desperate move."

The Sixth Prince said: "So what, it looks like we won't be able to arrive in a while. No one can count on us now and we have to rely on self-rescue."

Shen Qiujun's eyebrows jumped when he heard this. Sure enough, he heard the Sixth Prince say: "At this juncture, you have thought of me and asked me to rush back immediately. I am afraid that I will have to destroy the dam and release the water tonight. It is a pity for Yang Yuan and those dead soldiers." I hope they are smarter and can come back alive."

Seeing Shen Qiujun sitting there in a daze, the Sixth Prince hurriedly stepped forward and comforted him: "Don't worry, the city has a high terrain and the water will flow to other places outside the city. I will arrange for people to clean the warehouse." Floor, you can move over there later. Alas, if you weren't pregnant and it's not easy for you to travel back and forth, I really wouldn't worry about you being here alone. After I go back, I will order Zhou Shaoze and the others to come back to protect you, plus there are so many people in this mansion. They are our people, you don’t have to be afraid.”

Shen Qiujun came back to his senses, pulled the sleeves of the sixth prince, and begged: "Can you not let go? Maybe Yang Yuan and the others have reached their destination now and can make a difference tonight. Give them some time. If you want to No, wait until tomorrow night to release the water."

The Sixth Prince sighed: "Time is not waiting for me. I listen to their wishes. I'm afraid we will see the result tomorrow. Where will we go to release water at that time, and how will we turn defeat into victory? You just need to take good care of your body. These people on the battlefield Don’t worry about things.”

Shen Qiujun shook his head and said: "There is a saying that is good, if you are not in your position, you will not seek political power. At other times, you can just retreat and retreat. But now you are the forerunner of the Eastern Expedition, and it is your responsibility to defend your home and country. Defeat is a common occurrence for military strategists. , Not everyone is alive and well, and dying in battle can be regarded as fulfilling their duties and not wasting their lives. How can you now drown the people you should be sworn to protect with your own hands for the sake of personal life and death?"

The sixth prince sneered: "People? Da Qi is not short of these people. Our first priority now is to protect Da Qi's borders. They died for the country, and they deserved their death. Da Qi has protected them for so long. They If you complain, you are dissatisfied. Who doesn't want to win the battle, but if he loses for a while, he should only blame God for not opening his eyes and not being able to stop the backflow of the flood."

Shen Qiujun said anxiously: "Even if you can escape the disaster and the reinforcements arrive to save the situation, you will be guilty of disregarding the lives and deaths of the people in order to escape for your own life. If the people are too seriously injured, The sins on your body are more serious, and you will have endless troubles in the future."

The Sixth Prince hurriedly comforted Shen Qiujun and said, "Speak slowly if you have anything to say. Don't be too hasty, or you might get pregnant. I'm not going to fight for that position, so I'm asking for a good reputation. A bad reputation might not be a bad thing."

Hearing this, Shen Qiujun couldn't help but blurt out: "Do you know that once the water flows back, not only will the people be displaced, but tens of thousands of people will lose their lives in the flood and the subsequent plague. You cannot bear this responsibility. If In the future, when the wise king ascends the throne, this crime will be enough to put our family on death row. Even if the prince ascends the throne in the future, the interest relationship between you and him has changed. If there is another villain to provoke you, you can take the lives of tens of thousands of people without taking it seriously. , why can't it be used as a tool for his common people's anger? Everyone is destined to die, which may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather. I would rather die like a hero for my family and country than to die in humiliation and be criticized by thousands of people."

The Sixth Prince hurriedly hugged Shen Qiujun and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can things get to that point? It's just flooding some farmland and taking the lives of tens of thousands of people. Don't think nonsense, I have everything. Even if you really take away the lives of tens of thousands of people, and there is always someone to blame, it will be me who is punished by God. As long as I am here, I will ensure that you live in peace and happiness for the rest of your life."

But Shen Qiujun was so frightened that he cried and said: "You and I are husband and wife. If anything happens to you, how can I live a happy life regardless of it? Is this considered retribution in this life? If you and I can be happy in this life, then in the next life Well, you also said that you want to be with me for life after life, just to cultivate our next life. Just wait for two more days, maybe reinforcements will come. Even if we are defeated and die in the end, my children and I will definitely follow. You go away, I will be my companion on the road to hell, and we will be a family again in the next life."

The Sixth Prince wiped away Shen Qiujun's tears and sighed: "No one knows whether there is an afterlife. Living well in the present is the right thing to do. Only when you are alive can you have hope. If you die, there will be nothing. Alas, that's all, if I am Devil, you are the Bodhisattva in this world, okay, I promise you, no matter what, I will wait until tomorrow night."

Shen Qiujun knew that it was very difficult for the Sixth Prince to retreat to this step. Daqi might not be defeated until tomorrow night, so he could only pray secretly in his heart: I hope God has the virtue of good life. If God doesn't open his eyes, , things are still the same as in the previous life. This debt is all placed on the sixth prince, but it is really unfair. There is no one to blame for being a Buddha or a demon.

When the Sixth Prince came to the camp, he first called Zhou Shaoze and said, "You will immediately bring someone to protect the madam. If anything happens to the madam, you all will come to see her."

Zhou Shaoze said hurriedly: "Don't worry, I will protect my wife."

The Sixth Prince paused for a while and then said: "If anything happens to me, you should follow Madam back to the Shen family."

Zhou Shaoze was stunned and was about to speak when the Sixth Prince waved his hand and said, "No need to talk nonsense, hurry back to the city."

Zhou Shaoze and others withdrew. The Sixth Prince was in a daze for a while, then came to General Zhu's tent and said: "I don't agree with flooding Dongchen tonight. It's not a last resort, so I have to wait for at least one more day, otherwise When I think about the people here, I feel uneasy."
