"Your Majesty, over there at the black wind outlet..."
When he was about to reach the door, Li Guang asked tentatively.
"Even if we give it to them now, will they still be able to eat it?"
Calculating the time, the Black Wind Channel should be over. Regardless of success or failure, the support troops sent by the imperial court will definitely not even be able to drink the broth. As for what they think, Liu Deng is really too lazy to guess. .
It was originally a good marriage between the two parties, but in the end it ended up like this. Liu Deng felt full of regret for his arrogance.
If I hadn't taken it for granted, things would never have turned out like this. As long as I had been a little more careful, if I had found out one day in advance, the hundreds of thousands of people in Fushi City would not have died so miserably... …
"Victory at Black Wind Pass!"
"Victory at Black Wind Pass!"
"Victory at Black Wind Pass!"
When night fell, the soldiers who reported victory finally returned to the military camp...
The last stone in Liu Deng's heart finally fell to the ground. This matter was finally over. Once the seeds of revenge sprout, they will grow like weeds and soon become denser...
"Send the order and dispatch two thousand elite soldiers to accompany the king back to the palace. Let General Li handle the matters here slowly. The king is not feeling well and will return to the palace first!"
According to normal procedures, if he wins the battle at this time, Liu Deng should naturally go to Chang'an to receive the reward.
But for some reason, he was always holding his breath in his heart. No matter what, he couldn't get up the interest to make meritorious deeds and receive rewards.
"Your Majesty, you are not feeling well. Do you need to call in a military doctor to check?"
After hearing what Liu Deng said, Du Ziteng asked quickly.
"You're such a fucking stick!"
Liu Deng kicked him in the butt angrily and kicked him out.
Du Ziteng was even more depressed now. Although he had won the battle, why did the king still look so unhappy?
But no matter how doubtful he was, since the king said so, he could only go to Li Guang to convey it...
"I'm afraid this is inconsistent with etiquette..."
Even Li Guang was surprised by Liu Deng's decision.
In any case, this time we won such a big victory. If the great king Liu Deng did not show up, even if the soldiers went to receive their merits and rewards, they would feel that they were lacking something...
"I don't know about this young one. It's just that the king's face was very gloomy when he spoke. Otherwise, General Li, would you like to ask?"
Du Ziteng was also very depressed about himself. He just asked one more question and the king immediately kicked him. If he asked two more questions, the king would not be able to directly push him out and hit him with a military stick.
"Forget it, since the king is not feeling well, let's do what the king wants first!"
In the past two days, Li Guang could also tell that Liu Deng was unhappy. It seemed that there were too many people killed and injured this time, so the king himself felt a little guilty. However, since the king had already mentioned the reason for his physical discomfort, he must be able to Prevaricate.
Sometimes Li Guang really couldn't understand Liu Deng. If it were other princes and kings who had such rare achievements, they would have been elated. As for things like killing and injuring hundreds of thousands of people, in their eyes Is it a big deal?
No matter what Li Guang thought about him, Liu Deng didn't want to stay here any longer. He led two thousand cavalry overnight and returned directly to Dai Kingdom in a mighty manner.
After the imperial army took over, the subsequent aftermath work went very smoothly.
Heifengkou won such a big victory, so naturally countless civilians were needed to help clean up the battlefield, transport corpses, and rescue the wounded.
According to the pre-distribution of the captured military supplies such as war horses, half of the war horses were sent to Chang'an, and the remaining items were shipped directly back to Dai State.
When the messenger of victory rushed to Chang'an, Liu Deng returned to Jinyang at night. He did not make any publicity, but quietly returned to the palace...
There was no welcoming ceremony, no carnival crowd, everything was silent...
"Wang'er, why are you back at this time? Why didn't you send someone to notify you in advance?"
It was already late at night. After hearing that Liu Deng had returned to the palace, the Queen Mother hurried to Liu Deng's palace. As soon as she saw Liu Deng, she hugged him directly into her arms.
"My son just missed his mother a little, so he came back in a hurry. These days, my mother is worried!"
Liu Deng's voice was very calm. Although this woman had no actual blood relationship with her, this did not prevent him from enjoying maternal love to the fullest at this moment...
The fire in his chest was burning raging, almost burning him dry. He urgently needed someone to help him put it out completely...
"You kid, look, you've lost a lot of weight this time you went out..."
When she said this, the Queen Mother's eyes became red again, and her tears fell down.
Maybe this is motherly love. The empress did not ask about the situation of the war or the gains and losses. She only cared about her son losing weight again this time...
"Mom, I'm hungry..."
After a long time, Liu Deng suddenly said.
"Come on, hurry up and prepare something to eat! Didn't you hear the king say you were hungry?"
The Queen Mother finally realized what she was doing and ordered her servants to prepare meals.
There was a large table full of dishes. Liu Deng said nothing, holding a bowl of rice and swallowing it. This was his first time to experience massacre...
There were corpses everywhere in the city. Liu Deng felt fear from the bottom of his heart. The cruelty of war in the cold weapon era was even worse than that in later generations...
After eating and drinking, Liu Deng suddenly found that he couldn't sleep...
"Come here, prepare your horses!"
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. At this time, you..."
Hearing Liu Deng ask someone to carry a horse, Du Ziteng said a little embarrassed.
"Cut the nonsense!"
Liu Deng glared at Du Ziteng and immediately did not dare to say any more. He hurried down and asked someone to prepare the carriage.
It was night now, and he didn't dare to let Liu Deng ride alone. If something happened, he couldn't bear the responsibility...
Fortunately, Liu Deng didn't argue with him. He quietly left the city with only a few dozen guards and headed straight for a valley outside the city.
In this valley, there is a secret brought by Liu Deng. Not only did the fire in Liu Deng's chest not go out, but it burned even hotter. The blood debt can only be repaid with blood!
As soon as he closed his eyes, he could hear countless innocent souls crying in his ears, but Liu Deng knew in his heart that if he wanted to accomplish this, he needed a careful plan!
