Chapter 173: Victory and defeat are common affairs in military affairs
The next day, in a military camp on the road, Han Yiba was holding the official document sent by Niu Xuangu in his hand. At first, he thought that he was dizzy and had read the words wrongly. He read them more than ten times in a row. The more he read them, the more excited he became, and his hands were trembling.
At this time, Han Bing walked in from outside the tent and said, "Dad, you call me?"
Han Yiba suddenly stood up, handed the official document in his hand to him, and said excitedly: "Look, the first battle of Qingliang Hou won!"
Han Bing took the official document and said happily: "Really? It seems that the Marquis of Qingliang did not disappoint us."
Han Yibadao: "It's not just that it didn't disappoint us, it just made me amazed! All the eighteen counties invaded were annihilated. The most incredible thing is that there were no casualties in the six counties under Qingliang Marquis, and no casualties! I have lived for hundreds of years, and I have never heard of it all. Even the ancestor Wuwei of Qingliang Marquis, there is no such precedent! I feel like I'm dreaming now, it's too unbelievable."
Han Bing said in a daze: "How is this possible? Who sent this official document? It's not a joke, right?"
Han Yibadao: "Who dares to have a joke on military affairs? If it was given by someone else, I really don't believe it. It was sent by Niu Xuangu. Besides, my spies outside the pass also received rewards. It is indeed true that the enemy came with tens of thousands of people and only a few hundred people ran away."
Han Bing was quite shocked and quickly read the official documents in his hand in detail. The official documents were written in detail, and the whole story was clearly written. After reading them, he was silent for a long time before saying, "Qingliang Hou is such a genius!"
Han Yibadao: "I don't admire Qingliang Hou at all now. I admire myself. I really have a keen eye to recognize the beads. I knew that Qingliang Hou would not disappoint me."
Han Bing nodded and said, "My father is indeed unique and has not covered the pearl with dust!"
Han Yibadao: "Fortunately the dog emperor cut off his title, otherwise how could I get such a talent? The dog emperor would definitely regret it so much that his intestines were blue when he got this news."
Han Bing said: "It seems that my life should not be lost. Everything is God's will!"
Han Yibadao: "Now there is Qingliang Hou guarding the west, so there is no worries! You can make arrangements. Now our focus of defense is on the east road. If Qingliang Hou is there on the west road, you can ignore it for the time being."
Han Bing nodded and said, "Yes!"
Han Yibadao: "Also, let's inform the whole country of this news. This victory was fought too promptly. I need this victory to soothe people's hearts."
Han Bing said: "I know this."
Han Yibadao: "By the way, remember to reward the six counties outside the pass!"
Han Bing said in a daze: "What does Qingliang Hou reward him?"
Han Yiba was slightly stunned and sighed: "I can't reward what Qingliang Hou wants, either, I can't reward others!"
Han Bing responded and retreated.
At the Grand Marshal's Mansion of Tianlu, now it has become Zhentian Marquis Mansion. There is a lotus pond in the backyard. It is winter now, and the lotus leaves are withered, like palm fan, covering the water surface tightly. If the poor see them, they will definitely feel extremely pity and will go down and dig up the lotus to eat.
There is a pavilion in the middle of the lotus pond, connected to the shore by a straight stone bridge. At this time, a man stood by the railing of the pavilion, with a thin body, a hooked nose, triangular eyes, and a sinister look. He held a handful of bait in his left hand, and pinched it in his right hand, gently sprinkled it into the lotus pond, attracting a group of colorful fish, scrambling to eat, causing ripples.
This person is Marshal Tianlu Lu Changhai.
At this time, a person hurried over from the stone bridge. His figure was the same as Lu Changhai, and he also had a hooked nose. Although it was not triangular eyes, his eyes were also sinister. It was probably because birds of a feather flocked. This person was walking in front of the road, Pei Minqi walked behind Lu Changhai and said hurriedly: "Marty, something happened!"
Lu Changhai did not turn around, and still sprinkled bait slowly and said lightly: "What's wrong?"
Pei Minqi said: "We defeated the 18 counties in the attack on the territories!"
Lu Changhai was still calm and said, "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. If you suffer a defeat, you will win back."
Pei Minqi said: "But this time it was a bit ridiculous!"
Lu Changhai then turned his head and said, "Where is ridiculous?"
Pei Minqi said: "The eighteen counties in our country were almost wiped out, and only a few hundred people fled back, but there were no casualties on the enemy."
Lu Changhai was shocked and said, "What? Where did you hear this news? Did you say it on the street?"
Pei Minqi said: "At first, I couldn't believe it, but after verification from multiple parties, it was absolutely true!"
Lu Changhai frowned and said, "How is this possible? Could it be that the eighteen counties were running to their territory and committing suicide?"
Pei Minqi explained the whole process of this matter in detail, but he also pieced together the scattered news. Although he knew that the enemy was surrendering, he didn't know what reason to surrender, and he didn't know that Fan Xuchao was lured by the cultivation pill.
Even so, Lu Changhai was furious when he heard this. He scattered all the bait in his hand into the lotus pond, causing the fish in the pond to be half happy. Lu Changhai was so angry that he slapped the railing. The railing suddenly shattered and fell into the water. The fish that snatched food fled everywhere. He said angrily: "Waste! A group of waste! Tens of thousands of people died, but they didn't even kill an enemy. Even if they kill a dog, it wouldn't be so embarrassing! If this matter is reported, how do you let me see people in the court? The old guy from Zhennanhou must be smiling now, and I'm so angry."
Pei Minqi said: "As long as we break the game back before this incident is spread."
Lu Changhai nodded and said, "That's right, you must make a comeback, but the six counties can be killed by the blink of an eye."
Pei Minqi said, "Does the Marquis know who is guarding the six counties?"
Lu Changhai said in a daze: "What do I care about a little person? It is impossible for Zhennanhou to be in charge of himself."
Pei Minqi said, "The identity is almost the same. It is said that the former Qingliang Hou Jiang Xiaobai is in charge!"
Lu Changhai was shocked and said, "Qingliang Hou? Qingliang Hou of Qingliang City?"
Pei Minqi said, "Where is the second Qingliang Marquis in the Xia Empire?"
Lu Changhai was stunned and said, "He is not dead yet?"
Pei Minqi said, "Since you appear on the earth, you must be not dead."
Lu Changhai laughed and said, "What a enemy, where are you going to gather? I didn't expect that the Qingliang Hou would actually collude with Zhennan Hou. Does he still want to make a comeback?"
Pei Minqi nodded and said, "From this perspective, he really wants to make a comeback!"
Lu Changhai showed disdain and said, "Does he think he is his ancestor Wuwei? A waste who can't even protect his title wants to make a comeback? It seems that if I don't send him to see his ancestor Wuwei, he doesn't know how much he has? Pass my order and transfer 50 counties to me!"
Pei Minqi was startled and said, "Fifty counties? But there are only six counties in the enemy? Isn't it a bit too many?"
Lu Changhai sneered and said, "Since he is willing to be a chariot with a mantis arm, he will crush him to pieces, instead of being half dead!"
Pei Minqi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make arrangements now."
Lu Changkaido: "This time I choose someone who is more reliable, don't be like that wasteful man like Fan Sucha."
Pei Minqi said, "Don't worry, I will select it myself this time, and there will be no more mistakes."
A few days later, Jiang Xiaobai was sitting in the room practicing, and someone outside reported that it was Princess Niu who asked for a meeting in the hall.
Jiang Xiaobai came to the hall, but found that several princesses were there. To his surprise, it turned out that it was Wang Qinghu and Chen Jingru who came, and several princesses were talking with each other.
When everyone saw Jiang Xiaobai, everyone stood up, Niu Xuangu smiled and said, "Master Princess, I have brought you the person you want. I really didn't expect that Master Princess is really the leader of the Qianzhai Alliance. Throughout history, there will definitely be no other person except Master Princess. I am impressed now."
Several other princesses agreed, and when they heard that the Chief Princess was the leader of the Qianzhai Alliance, they were really thunderous and shocked. Where is the Qianzhai Alliance? For them, it was really a dragon-pool and tiger-like den, a vicious place where bandits were everywhere, they ate people without spitting bones, geese plucking hair, and people with blood. Even hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Xuelan Kingdom were defeated and sinking sand, which was frightening. If they had the cultivation level of the fifth and sixth grade of the Golden Fight, they would not dare to go, and it would be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth when they went. But the Chief Princess was young and had not had a high cultivation level, but he was already the king and dominant place in the Dragon-pool and tiger-like den. How could they not be surprised? How could they not sigh? How could they not accept it?
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "I am a bandit, you are an official, so how can anyone admire the bandit?"
Niu Xuangu was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "The official bandits are all, and the official bandits are all!"
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "The official bandit family? It sounds so familiar."
Wang Qinghu walked over, grabbed his arm, and said, "Leader, I finally saw you again. It's a speechless pain to part. In this day without a leader, the sky of Zhenxian Mountain is gray. Do I miss the leader all the time?"
Jiang Xiaobai glared at him and said, "Put your false thoughts, I don't like it."
Wang Qinghu said anxiously: "Every sentence I am from the heart, why did it become false? It seems that the leader of the alliance did not think of me and could not understand the speechless pain."
Jiang Xiaobai said: "I think you have been in a woman's nest for too long and are becoming less and less like a man."
Wang Qinghu was stunned and said, "Leader, don't scare me. No wonder I always feel that my chickens/chicken have become smaller during this period and will not be infected by women, right?"
Jiang Xiaobai glared at him again, ignored him, but looked at Chen Jingru and Tao: "Jingru, why are you here too?"
Chen Jingru knelt down and said, "Disciple, pay homage to Master!"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "These false gifts will be spared from now on, get up!"
