The news of Xihu's declaration of war reached Qin Jiyan's ears immediately. After receiving the news, His Highness Qin was not worried, but had a relaxed look on his face, "Finally, the war has started." The sooner Xihu starts the war, the better it will be for them.
.
"Yes, the war has finally begun. The time in the northwest is really well chosen." Gu Qiancheng also smiled.
Although Xihu provoked the most chaotic period, King Zhao was also very powerful at this time, but there is also an advantage, that is, the national power of Qin was not dragged down by King Zhao's rebellion, and its military strength was not greatly restrained.
Although King Zhao has an advantage at this time, or the court has no disadvantage, it is better to start the war now than to wait until they and King Zhao are about the same fight, both sides are exhausted, and Xihu comes to take advantage.
Gu Qiancheng flipped through the information and saw that Feng Yao was the coach this time. He couldn't help being shocked, "Emperor Xihu believes in Feng Yao so much?" All 500,000 troops and horses were handed over to Feng Yao, and Xihu
The emperor is really courageous. You must know that Xihu only has one million troops in total, which is half of Xihu's strength.
"Emperor Xihu was assassinated not long ago, and Feng Yao risked his life to save him. The assassin who assassinated him happened to be the Eagle King who held military power in Xihu's hands. Emperor Xihu suppressed his military power and captured all the soldiers and horses around the capital.
Holding it in his hand, he no longer had to worry about his son or uncle rebelling, and Emperor Xihu was also grateful to Feng Yao. For this expedition, Xihu had several candidates, but unfortunately they all got into trouble during the mutual attacks, and in the end it was easier to save him.
The emperor is injured Feng Yao." Qin Jiyan explained patiently, but of course Qin Jiyan did not say anything about the seduction.
Everything happened, it doesn't matter whether you say it or not.
However, Qin Jiyan could understand even without talking to Gu Qiancheng, "It's really easy to gain Emperor Xihu's trust." Compared with the old emperor, Emperor Xihu was really easy to coax.
Princess Xihu helped him ward off a disaster, and he praised Princess Xihu to the heavens, and her status was somewhat stronger than that of the prince.
Feng Yao risked his life to save him, so he trusted Feng Yao and gave half of Xihu's troops to Feng Yao.
Looking at the old emperor again, the fifth prince almost risked his life to save him, but what was the result?
The fifth prince only managed to win the favor of the old emperor and stayed with him for a while, but was later thrown into the dust by reality.
"Emperors are very suspicious. Although Emperor Xihu is ruthless, he can be regarded as the simplest one among the emperors of the Three Kingdoms." Although Emperor Xihu also experienced various battles back then, Xihu has always respected the strong. Xihu
The emperor has more opportunities to use his fists and soldiers than his brains.
Although Gu Qiancheng had never met Emperor Xihu, he understood him from the side. He nodded in agreement with His Highness Qin and asked at the same time: "Does the Emperor of Northern Qi intend to make a move?"
Although the Northern Qi Emperor was weak, he was much more difficult to deal with than the Xihu Emperor.
"The news from the Meng family, the Northern Qi Emperor wanted to take action, but the Queen Mother's illness seems to have improved, and the Northern Qi Emperor is very busy now." The improvement of the Queen Mother's condition is naturally attributed to the Meng family.
"Let them fight on their own, let's solve the matter at hand first." Gu Qiancheng yawned, feeling a little sleepy.
His Highness Qin took a look at the time and said somewhat remorsefully: "It's so late. I won't talk anymore. You should go and have a rest."
"I'm fine. I just need to wash my face. Didn't you say that Chenghuan and the others are going to bring food and grass back tonight? I'll wait with you."
"No, you go to sleep. I'll wake you up when they come back." Qin Jiyan felt sorry for Gu Qiancheng, especially since there were so many wounded soldiers in the army these days, and Gu Qiancheng had no time to spare. He was busy in and out every day.
, had more things to do than the military doctor, but he couldn't stop it.
There is a shortage of doctors in the army. Gu Qiancheng can help save more soldiers.
"Okay then, I'll go back to the room and take a rest." Gu Qiancheng was really sleepy and didn't force herself anymore. But as soon as she got up, there was a shout from outside: "It's General Cheng and General Yan, they have returned in triumph.
.”
The horn sound of "Uh huh..." sounded, and this frequency was the sound of the army returning.
The pioneer officer returned to the camp first and reported to His Highness Qin, "Your Highness, General Cheng and General Yan have returned with a large amount of fodder."
"Okay, General Cheng and General Yan have made great achievements, and I will go to pick them up personally." His Highness Qin already knew this in his heart, but at this time he still had to look happy and order people to get ready. He was going out to personally welcome the triumphant return.
The returning army.
His Highness Qin's move can be said to have given General Cheng and General Yan a lot of face, and at the same time aroused the soldiers' competitive spirit. As long as they have achieved military exploits, His Highness Qin will personally welcome them.
The time was just right. When Qin Jiyan led people outside the camp, General Cheng and Yan Qing were arriving. When they saw His Highness Qin, they dismounted from a distance, strode forward, and knelt on one knee in front of His Highness Qin, "
Fortunately, the general will live up to his destiny!"
The two of them completed the tasks assigned by His Highness Qin and spoke with confidence.
Qin Jiyan understood at a glance that the food that Yan Qing had snatched was no less than what they originally had in the army. A smile of approval appeared on Leng Ao's face: "General Cheng, General Yan has worked hard, and so have all the soldiers!"
"General, I'm just following orders to do things, it's not hard work." Although Yan Qing is not good at words, he can speak well when greeting his superiors.
The few soldiers didn't talk much. When Qin Jiyan praised them, one of them shouted, "Your Highness is a thousand years old!" and "Your Highness is wise!"
In an instant, the outside was full of the sound of the army shouting "Chitose". The soldiers in the army were infected by it, and they also shouted one by one, and the sound resounded through the sky...
It lasted for a full quarter of an hour, until their voices became hoarse and they could no longer shout. Then everyone stopped at Qin Jiyan's signal.
Yan Qing, General Cheng and others deserved rewards for their meritorious service. The soldiers who went out on this expedition also deserved rewards, but the soldiers who stayed in the city also deserved rewards.
After robbing King Zhao of food, His Highness Qin was not worried about not having enough food and grass, so he immediately ordered an extra meal tomorrow. At the same time, he gave Yan Qing and General Cheng the two boxes of jewelry that Cheng Huan and the others had snatched to distribute to the meritorious people.
These two boxes of jewelry were purely accidental gains. Cheng Huan and the others did not want gold and silver jewelry at all. Now that the war has just begun, it is difficult to store those gold and silver jewelry with them. Besides, none of them are short of money. Where can I go?
They will put jewels in their eyes. Compared with jewels, these people want to grab food and military exploits.
However, they are certainly happy to have jewelry. After all, this is the first time they have obtained something based on their skills since joining the army.
Tang Wanjin must be the first to win this battle. Yan Qing and General Cheng were also interested in giving a string of intact pearl necklaces to Tang Wanjin. You must know that others can only get a few. Tang Wanjin
That’s a lot of strings.
Of course, Tang Wanjin was also very satisfied, but why would he use a pearl necklace?
