After all, they are a ruthless emperor. Richard dare not speak for William Twelve anymore. How much is conscience worth in this world? It is not worth even thinking about involving himself for a dead person.
Outside the palace, people were still grieving for the general who died in the battle.
But in the palace, Peter XVI has ruthlessly abandoned the William family. When General Max returns, the William family will surely be destroyed.
"Richard, how many years have you been with me?"
Peter XVI immediately put away his indulgent attitude and walked back to the hall calmly.
"It's been twenty-two years."
Richard counted it carefully in his mind, fearing that he was missing a pawn.
"It's not easy, it's been twenty-two years."
"From the time I inherited the throne at the age of twenty-four to now, for the whole twenty-two years, I have not dared to say a true word to anyone. Sometimes I cursed him to die soon, but when he really died like this, I felt
I’m not used to it anymore.”
Peter XVI looked up at the sky, not knowing what to think in his deep eyes.
silence!
Richard didn't say anything, and of course he didn't dare to say anything. When the king was thinking about a problem, he couldn't allow others to interrupt him.
"Transfer the order to appoint Pharaoh Tissus as the national advisor."
"In addition, I will let you handle this matter for me as to how to draw the people's anger towards Xuanyuan Kingdom."
Two orders!
Richard immediately agreed. One made him puzzled, and the other made him frown slightly.
"The Blood Demon originally came from Xuanyuan Kingdom. This matter is not difficult. Little William lost more than 100,000 horses in the south. The king's intention is to move the main battlefield to the south to fight with Xuanyuan Kingdom's northern troops.
, a big fight?”
All along, Mingbei's main battlefield has been in the west.
Shifting the main battlefield is not a small matter. After decades of fighting and plundering, many Western countries have already hated Mingbei to the core, and have to guard against them taking advantage of the situation.
Furthermore, Xuanyuan Kingdom is definitely not an easy bone to chew on.
Richard's biggest worry is that there are many small countries in the south. Mingbei's large-scale recruitment of troops to the south will make those small countries have trouble sleeping and eating, and eventually they will join Xuanyuan Kingdom.
"Of course we're going to have a big fight!"
"Otherwise more than 500,000 people have died, where will the people's pent-up anger be vented? This is a rare and good opportunity. You can use it to let more young people go to the military headquarters and the embrace of our royal court."
"As for when to fight, it is not up to us to decide. There is no need to be too anxious about this battle. The sooner the better. Unfortunately, the battlefield outside the territory is about to open. You should understand what I mean."
Peter XVI looked at Richard. No matter what the circumstances, as a king, what he wants is always to maximize his own interests.
not easy!
He has followed him loyally for twenty-two years, but one person has to face the public's questioning about Max's return.
…
In the north, the northern troops stationed along the Gosang River evacuated.
They stayed here for four full years, guarding the blue sky and the earth north of Xuanyuan Kingdom day and month, guarding against sneak attacks by the barbarians from Mingbei.
However, the first thing Ye Feng did after winning the battle was to make them retreat again and again, retreating three hundred miles.
In the middle of the prairie, select suitable terrain and build a city.
In building the city, Ye Feng did not want to build some Great Wall. He wanted to provide a good shelter for millions of northern soldiers on this vast prairie. They would no longer have to worry about blizzard weather and no longer have to worry about snowstorms.
Instead of worrying about the barbarians' sneak attacks, you can also guard the central position to deal with attacks from any party.
Everything is just for the future northern troops.
Advance to attack, retreat to defend!
"King, if this city is built, we will move the national line three hundred miles further."
The mighty northern troops retreated along the road.
The first legion led by Xiao Chuanqiu was ordered by Ye Feng to stay behind and take charge of rear-end work. Forty percent of the northern camp was missing, and the dry ground was quickly covered with snow again.
How many people can know the future?
Up here, there were millions of people who worked tirelessly and were not afraid of the severe cold, watching the northern sky day and night.
"That's not right. We are helping people in need."
Ye Feng smiled helplessly. Doesn't this sound like he meant to expand his territory?
But I really don’t think so!
As early as the beginning, after Ye Feng suppressed the northern vassal states, he just wanted to cut off the iron hooves of the barbarians heading south. But as he kept fighting, who would have thought that he would reach the border of the Gosang River and almost advance to the barbarians.
territory.
"Is the king worried about any criticism?"
"As long as a man does what he does and doesn't do, and is worthy of heaven and earth, I have always thought that you are the best King of the North."
This does not mean wearing a high hat and flattering someone.
Xiao Chuanqi does not lie. In fact, he has never lied. He always says what he says. In the wind and snow, the two men looked obviously melancholy.
It’s time to move away, and I’m really reluctant to leave!
"In your heart, I may be, but in my heart, the old Northern King is."
Ye Feng shook his head and smiled.
If Cao Yi hadn't dug up a lot of information about the old Northern King with him, he wouldn't have known that the old Northern King who had been stationed on the national line had done so many earth-shattering things.
Not sending troops to conquer is not because of weakness, but because there is no need at all.
"It's a pity that I can no longer admire the grace of the old Northern King."
Xiao Chuanqi said with emotion.
Lamenting the helplessness of the world, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the new people in the world drive out the old ones.
One thing Xiao Chuanqiu had to admit was that it was the old Northern King who supported the Northern Army, and Ye Feng tempered it into a sharper blade.
"In three days, come back to the imperial capital with me."
Ye Feng was silent for a few minutes before opening his mouth to Youyou.
There are some grudges and accounts that should be settled!
In fact, Ye Feng still has many intentions in letting the Northern Army retreat three hundred miles. The most superficial one is that even if the barbarians raise troops to invade again, he will have enough time to deal with it.
"good!"
Xiao Chuanqiu smiled cheerfully.
"Uncle Junior, you finally have time to visit us."
What Long Nannan said when entering the door immediately made Ye Feng's face turn red.
indeed!
After half a month of planning and fighting, I felt a little sorry for leaving a few people here without any care.
"You won't run away again without saying a word this time, right?"
Hong Qingyan put down the medical skills in her hands, her eyes a little cold.
"Not anymore!"
Ye Feng said confidently that he knew why Hong Qingyan was angry.
"What are you doing?"
In a flash, Ye Feng was already at Hong Qingyan's side.
"Follow me to the Imperial Capital."
Ye Feng couldn't help but hugged Hong Qingyan, and then said:
"Nanny, hurry up and follow me."
Outside the tent, the horse had already been prepared. Ye Feng jumped onto the horse's back, and the next moment, Long Nannan was also on top of the other horse.
"drive!"
When the whip was raised, the horse's legs were raised in all directions. It all happened so fast that Hong Qingyan felt a little dizzy. She didn't come back to her senses until she ran a short distance away:
"Go back quickly, my things haven't been packed yet."
Unexpectedly, Ye Feng didn't listen to her at all. He put an arm around her waist and said with a smile:
"There's no need for you to clean it up. Don't worry, I'll bring you everything."
joke!
I don’t even want to think about who my husband is. How can such a trivial matter require you, the Princess of the North, to personally take care of it.
"Uncle Junior, let's compete to see who is faster. The loser must promise to do something easy for the other party."
On the side, Feng Yuan is in front and Long Nannan is behind. They are riding a horse together.
What made Ye Feng's teeth hurt was that the person holding the reins was Long Nannan. Even though she was so small, her riding skills were not as good as his own. Wherever she placed her other hand, his face grew darker and darker as he looked at her.
"good!"
"The end point is the river bank thirty miles ahead. First come first win."
Ye Feng said loudly, would he lose to a child?
"You lose!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the horse Long Nannan was on almost took off and ran wildly on the snow. Ye Feng was stunned. I haven't finished speaking yet.
You start cheating!
"Ha ha!"
"Honey, do you know that almost everyone in this world is guaranteed to make a profit without losing any money?"
Seeing Ye Feng deflated, Hong Qingyan said with a smile.
"who?"
Ye Feng asked in confusion.
"Of course it's Nannan. Don't you know that she almost always loses every bet?"
You can hear it.
During this period, Hong Qingyan and Long Nannan probably didn't get along very closely. Ye Feng shook his head to express his ignorance.
"She guessed they would get lost."
Hong Qingyan looked very interested.
How bad is Long Nannan’s gambling luck?
According to her own words, even if she is playing dice with others and they all roll out three twos, she can always roll lower than others.
"By the way, their horses look like they are flying on the snow. Are they so good at riding horses?"
Seeing the two of them disappearing into nothing in the blink of an eye, Hong Qingyan was puzzled. She turned back to look at Ye Feng, her eyes seeming to ask questions again.
Why is yours so slow?
"Their horse is Pegasus."
At this opportunity, Ye Feng immediately put his mouth to his mouth, he could say.
Are those two people's cultivation enough to crush him?
I believed you ghost!
Hong Qingyan, who was sitting on the horse, wanted to resist, but was quickly defeated. She could only let Ye Feng pursue him. He would only bully me who didn't understand martial arts, right?
I asked my daughter to sleep with me at night!
The wind was blowing again and the snow was falling, but Ye Feng's riding speed was getting slower and slower. He didn't bother to care about the bet. If he lost, he lost. Of course, this rare time for two people can only be appreciated slowly.
good.
The journey was less than ten minutes, but Ye Feng forcefully forced him to run away for half an hour. The two of them came to the small bridge leisurely.
It’s true!
There wasn't even a shadow. After looking at the positioning display in his hand, he finally believed Hong Qingyan's words. Long Nannan and Long Nan were really lost.
"Is it possible that you really will lose every bet?"
Ye Feng smiled helplessly and had no choice but to turn his horse around to find the two men.
"You're stupid. They don't know the road. It's strange that they don't lose it when they run so fast."
You will lose every bet!
With Long Nannan's bratty temperament, anyone who believes in her will lose nothing.
