“Oh oh oh!”

The rooster heard the dawn, awakening the people of the city and also awakening Wu Nian.

In the bedroom, Wu Nian opened his eyes, but he was not as energetic as before, and he felt dizzy and exhausted. This time he was not seriously injured, but the wound was infected. Fortunately, the situation was not very serious.

"Hu." Wu Nian didn't want to get up, but was really hungry, so he called his personal soldiers in. He took hot water, washed up, and then came to the outer room for breakfast.

I didn’t dare to eat big fish and meat for breakfast, only light foods such as rice porridge and vegetables.

This thing is not useful after eating it. You have to eat it for two more meals in the morning and take a dose of Chinese medicine by the way.

However, after eating porridge and having something in his stomach, Wu Nian felt warm all over and became much more energetic. After a while, he came to the study to read a book. After reading for a while, he felt sleepy and fell asleep on a chair.

Until Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng and others walked in from outside.

"What's the matter?" Wu Nian opened his eyes, cheered up and asked.

"General. Are you okay?" Wang Gui asked cautiously without saying anything.

"Yes. General. Do you want to worry?" Zhang Sheng asked nervously.

"I'm strong, nothing is wrong." Wu Nian cheered up and said with a smile.

Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng was still worried. He carefully observed Wu Nian's expression before he felt relieved. The two came to the left and right seats and sat down. Wang Guicai said, "General. We have already taken a look. There were more than 18,000 prisoners from Goguryeo. In addition to the five or six thousand people who were conquered in the previous battle, there were at least 23,000."

Wu Nian laughed and nodded and said, "After this calculation, the soldiers who fled back to Goguryeo will be at most over 10,000. Goguryeo's vitality is severely damaged."

"Yes." Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng nodded in unison, and also showed joy. This battle is really of great significance.

"As long as we did before, we moved these Goguryeo prisoners to Nanhai Prefecture, Guangchuan Prefecture, and Yingqing Prefecture. We sent people to teach them the Chu State's Mandarin, and organized them to build bridges and roads on a daily basis."

Wu Nian asked without hesitation.

Wang Gui, but Zhang Sheng did not answer, and his face showed a look of dismay.

"What's wrong?" Wu Nian said in confusion.

"General. It's fine if there were five or six thousand people before. Now there are at least twenty-three thousand people. This is not a small number. I have to consume a lot of money and food every day, let alone sending people to teach them Chinese."

Wang Gui shook his head and sincerely expressed his opinions.

"There's no way. I can't kill them, nor can I train them to form an army. They won't be determined to help me fight. I can't let them go back to Goguryeo. I can only support them. Moreover, I have already said it before. Let them learn the Chu Mandarin, unify words and unify official languages. It will be of great benefit to us occupying Goguryeo in the future."

Wu Nian had a very positive idea, shook her head and said.

"Yes." Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng looked at each other and said nothing more.

After saying these few words, Wu Nian felt in a bad mood and looked sleepy. Seeing this, Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng were about to get up to say goodbye.

At this moment, Tienniu's loud voice rang.

"General. I'm back."

Wu Nian, Zhang Sheng, and Wang Gui's face suddenly showed joy. Wu Nian stood up with a refreshing spirit, walked to the door, looked at the red-faced iron ox, and said with a smile: "It's considered back, it's really worrying."

After a pause, Wu Nian said, "How is it? Did Zhao Man succeed when we met Li Yunchong?"

"Anyway, I didn't bring the head back." Zhang Sheng found that his good brother was empty-handed and said with a smile.

"Hehe." Wang Gui smiled.

Tie Niu raised his hands and signaled that he was indeed empty. Then he shook his head and said, "Don't mention bringing back the head, when I come back alive, I will be Amitabha."

He explained the incident that Zhao Mancheng had met. Finally, he said to Wu Nian: "General. I am incompetent. I will let the tiger go back to the mountain."

After hearing this, Wu Nian and the other two were shocked and sweated. They looked at each other and showed fear and glory.

"If you say that you can let the tiger return to the mountain, you are safe and sound, it is better than anything else." Wu Nian stretched out his arms, hugged the iron cow, and said sincerely.

"Yes. Saving your life is better than anything else." Zhang Sheng nodded repeatedly.

Wang Gui stretched out his right foot and kicked Zhang Sheng.

"Yes. It's so happy to keep the dog's head on your neck." Tie Niu pointed his head heavily and showed a look of gratitude. The four of them said something at the door and came in and sat down.

Wu Nian remembered what Zhao Mancheng said before leaving and praised: "I have my ambitions. He has his own defense. Although we are hostile, we all do our best."

"But." At this point, Wu Nian sneered and said, "It's just that. He wants to keep Goguryeo, but it's not that easy."

"Soon I will cross the Yalu River and make a tiger step into Goguryeo. I will catch the Queen Mother Jin and let her kneel in front of me. I will capture the King of Goguryeo alive and destroy their ancestral temples and country."

The iron bull's eyes flashed with bright light, and he raised his head and said, "The general is right. This kid is arrogant and thought that if he wins me, he will be invincible in the world. Among us, some people can control him."

"Kill them."

He clenched his right fist and pounded heavily on the armrest of the Taishi Chair.

"Hahaha." Looking at his spirit, the brothers laughed.

"Okay. You are tired too, go down and rest. In a few days, Guan Jinhan, Huang Hu and the others will be back. I have prepared a celebration banquet, and I will not return without getting drunk. You must be energetic. Don't just lie down after eating a few taels of wine."

Wu Nian said with a smile.

"Okay." Tie Niu responded. Then he went down with Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng. Wu Nian was also tired, so he went back to the bedroom to take a break.

...........

Lunch time.

In the front yard of the county yamen, the chairs of the Grand Master were removed, and a round table was placed in the center. Various dishes were placed on the table.

The four maids stood in all directions and were ready to come up to serve them at any time.

Wu Nian, Guan Jinhan, Huang Hu, Zhao Yanting, Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Long Qi, Cheng Yulian and eight others sat around the round table.

Wu Nian sat in the main seat for granted.

Today he was wearing a purple robe and a golden crown, majestic and noble. After these days of cultivation, he has also cultivated his energy and a rosy complexion.

He wanted to get drunk, so he picked up the wine bowl in front of him, looked up at the brothers in front of him, and said to his subordinates: "Brothers. This battle is full of twists and turns, but the result is gratifying."

"There was half-destroyed Goguryeo that fought in one battle, and I'm afraid I will never dare to cross the Yalu River again. There are 32 counties in the five prefectures and twenty-six counties in Liaodong now, and there are five prefectures and twenty-six counties in my hands."

"Are there six counties left? Is it still far away?"

"He Dasheng."

After saying that, Wu Nian picked up the wine bowl with both hands, and gurgled and drank it clean. This was a strong wine.

The strong wine enters the throat, like a fire.

Just like Wu Nian's mood now.

Passionate is like fire, and today I will not be drunk and will not return.

"He Dasheng."

Without hesitation, everyone celebrated together and raised their heads to drink.
