A despicable conversation caused the Great Xia Pioneer Army to lose its leader. Not only that, but some other generals also suffered.
The military camp suddenly became chaotic. Looking at Dongfang Yue's corpse with a blooming head, no one would be able to recognize it if it weren't for the armor on his body.
The soldiers' hearts were very heavy, and their hearts were even more frightened. More than a dozen captains gathered together.
"The general is dead, what should we do now?"
"You ask me who to ask!"
"Why don't you retreat? The enemy is a magician!"
"Yes, yes, I think we should retreat!"
More than a dozen captains looked at each other, but in the end everyone focused on the person with the highest official rank.
Just as the other party was about to speak, someone ran into the camp in terror!
"Trouble! The enemy is attacking!"
The generals looked over and saw that they were scouts outside the camp, and quickly asked how many people had come.
"Too many! It's impossible to count!"
"Retreat! Retreat quickly! Gather the whole army and retreat quickly!" One person was still able to hold his own and quickly gathered everyone to retreat.
They saw countless infantry under Wu Xiong's command advancing towards the Xia army's camp. Behind these infantry were artillery pieces being pushed forward, ready to fire support at any time.
Seeing this battle, how could the Daxia army dare to resist?
They all ran away, unable to defeat Dongfang Yue when he was there, let alone Dongfang Yue who was still dead right now.
Upon hearing the news that the enemy army collapsed without a fight, Zhao Kang was stunned for a moment, "There was no resistance at all?"
"No! These bastards are like frightened rabbits. Some of them didn't even want their weapons, armor, or luggage, and turned around and ran away."
"It shouldn't be." Zhao Kang muttered.
Zhou Long on the side smiled and said, "It seems that he knows that he can't fight us head-on."
Heng, that's why he ran away in a hurry."
Zhao Kang suddenly smiled, "Maybe it's more than that."
"What did the prince think of?" Wu Xiong asked.
Gently tapping on the table, Zhao Kang said, "These guys came to invade us with great fanfare, but in terms of the combat power they have shown so far, they are not as good as the previous Zhou Kingdom and Qi Kingdom."
"They at least dare to touch us. I guess this is a country that is used to being comfortable."
Zhou Long's eyes lit up: "You mean?"
"I estimate that this Daxia army has not fought many battles!"
Zhao Kang Yile, "If it is an army tempered by the flames of war, no matter how powerful the opponent is, they will resist. Don't forget that this is a vanguard army. As the vanguard of an army, it occupies favorable terrain and provides
The main force opens the situation and stands firm, this is the responsibility of the vanguard of the first army."
"Now they have just fought a few battles and then fled. Does this look like an army that has withstood the flames of war? Even the vanguard army is like this, and the main force behind it, haha."
Zhao Kang's laughter was full of contempt. No matter how fancy his training was, he had never fought with a real sword or spear on the battlefield. It was just a pewter spear head, so it was nothing to be afraid of.
Wu Xiong and Zhou Long also understood what Zhao Kang meant and laughed.
"Okay, originally I thought it would be some kind of terrifying opponent, but the thigh Liu Yanran found is not thick enough!"
Zhao Kang stood up and said, "This opponent will be left to you to deal with. This land is a strange place for us after all. While chasing the enemy, don't forget to make a step-by-step approach."
"I'll understand later."
Not much in Daxia
They have fought in the war, but being in the army is different. Although they have been recuperating for two or three years, one-third of the troops stationed on the Yongning defense line are the old soldiers who followed Zhao Kang on the battlefield.
After judging that the enemy army was a group of soft-legged shrimps, Zhao Kang had nothing to worry about anymore.
Called Watt to take off the hot air balloon and prepare to rush to Jingguo.
Today's Jingguo is no longer as big as it used to be. The old Jingguo territory, coupled with the full acceptance of Qi State's land, makes the territory extremely vast.
Even if Zhao Kang set off from Ningzhou in a hot air balloon, including the rest time, he flew for eight full days before arriving at the Steam Research Institute in Jingguo.
In recent years, Zhao Kang has completely fulfilled his original promise to Wu Rulong, and has done a lot of state-owned Jingguo.
Even because Emperor Jing Wu Guanhai now pays special attention to hot air balloons, after Zhao Kang sent the steam research talents to Jingguo, he issued a major order that all domestic development must make way for firearms research and hot air balloons. .??.
During the research process, we continued to communicate and cooperate with the Steam Research Institute in Yangzhou to share research results.
In just three years, the hot ball has developed to the eighteenth generation.
As soon as Zhao Kang arrived, someone rushed to report to Wu Guanhai in the palace. Wu Guanhai was naturally overjoyed and hurried over as soon as he threw away his dragon robe.
The two haven't seen each other for a long time, but their friendship with each other has not diminished at all.
"I have to stay longer this time. Why are you the only one here? Several sisters-in-law and rich people didn't come?"
Wu Guanhai smiled and waved his hand and rejected the cigarette offered by Zhao Kang. In terms of age between the two of them, Zhao Kang was one or two years older.
But from the appearance point of view, this is not the case. Today, Wu Guanhai looks like a middle-aged man in his mid-forties.
I still remember our meeting in Hua Jingcheng at the beginning of that year
, the then prince Wu Guanhai wore a python robe and a jade belt around his waist. He had a clear face and a gentle smile on his lips.
When people look at it, they can think of the four words "Gongzi Ruyu", but now.
Looking at people today, their eye sockets are sunken and the pupils are bloodshot, and their bodies are much thinner.
Even though he became emperor, he didn't seem to have thought about his happiness. Instead, he became more and more haggard.
Zhao Kang knew that this was caused by years of hard work. The emperor of Jingguo wanted to restore Jingguo to life as soon as possible.
Over the years, I haven't had much time to sit on the throne and live in the harem.
He personally led hundreds of officials to divide the land, appease and win over the original people of Qi, and went through everything from people's livelihood, agriculture and military affairs to even the primary schools established in various parts of Jingguo one by one, for fear that the education in each school would not be in place.
I'm afraid the rest time is not enough for three hours every day.
When Zhao Kang looks at this guy now, he always feels like looking at Emperor Yongzheng.
In addition, Zhao Kang also knew that Wu Guanhai still had a huge pressure on his shoulders.
When the city of Huajing was captured, the three brothers and more than 200 officials died heroically in order to defend the country and give him time to escape.
In order to prevent the female elders in the harem from being humiliated by the enemy, he personally picked up the sword and killed them all.
This was definitely a torture for Wu Guanhai, so he could only let Jingguo prosper.
Only then did he feel a little worthy of those who died.
Living people often bear more burdens.
Thinking about Zhao Kang, he couldn't help but patted the other party's shoulder and comforted him, "You should also take a good rest. Don't think about completing the work of three generations by yourself. People will be exhausted. Learn from Xiao Xuance and relax."
Just relax now. It's been so long and you still haven't got a concubine or a queen?"
