While several people were looking at each other, an emergency message came quickly from outside the porch...
"Report!" A messenger wearing red clothes and plain armor, with a red flag waving on his back, quickly shuttled under the porch.
In a few steps, he walked outside the room where Pingyang Jun and others were discussing. Sun Gu, who heard the urgent call from afar, could only think of
With the four words "military emergency", he didn't care about Pingyang Jun's existence. He immediately stepped out of the house and asked the visitor: "What's the urgent matter?" Pingyang Jun and General Chen Xun behind him immediately followed. Out of the house.
Obviously, the two of them were full of surprise and curiosity about this urgent report.
"General." The messenger didn't delay and immediately replied: "The general went deep into the grassland of Sangqian City and completely defeated the troops of King Zuoxian of the Hu people. He surrounded and defeated a total of thirteen tribes of Hu people, large and small, and killed King Zuoxian and others in formation. There are more than 30,000 people, and all the barbarians in the middle are deserted. I have specially ordered the generals to come here to guarantee their trust!"
"Cai!" Before the messenger could finish speaking, Sun Gu already clapped his hands and praised! You are worthy of being a general. It has only been ten days and the news of success has come. It is still such a big victory.
That's a complete victory! What is a complete victory? The enemy's loss of troops is more than ten times that of mine, which is just one of the conditions for complete victory.
Our own battle losses cannot exceed one-tenth, only then can we be called a complete victory! But obviously, the general only led an army of 30,000 people, while the Hu people Zuoxian King's troops had already gathered more than 20,000 people.
With such similar military strength, the general actually achieved a complete victory. How can this not be jaw-dropping!
Compared with Sun Gu's excitement, Pingyang Jun's expression on the side can only be described as lonely. Is it still too late after all?
Is Zhao Kuo really so powerful? How long has it been since we came to Daichi? He has already destroyed the troops of King Zuo Xian of the Hu people?
If he was given a few more days, I'm afraid the barbarian Shanyu would also... Involuntarily, Lord Pingyang had deep doubts about whether the goal of his trip could be achieved.
There is a sharp contrast in the mentality of Sun Gu and Ping Yangjun, but both of them are somewhat unbalanced.
Fortunately, there was the mature and prudent General Chen Xun beside him. Although he was very happy in his heart, he was obviously much more rational than Sun Gu and Pingyang Jun.
Seeing Sun Gu stroking his palms and getting carried away, Chen Xun had no choice but to
"Yuezu Agent" asked the messenger: "General, do you have any instructions?" The messenger nodded and continued: "General, the general's orders: First, Sangqian City should be prepared to receive supplies. Lord Lu Buwei will be here soon. A large number of cattle, sheep, horses and other supplies will be escorted back. Secondly, after the army has been repaired for a day, it will turn east and go to the headquarters of King You Xian, and specially order the city to be prepared to respond." Chen Xunhe Sun Gu looked at each other, half excited, half helpless.
The excitement is naturally about the huge rewards after the war, even the general called it
"A large number", one can imagine how huge the harvest of livestock will be this time. That's right, if you win thirteen tribes in a row, you won't gain much!
But unfortunately, Lord Pingyang beside him also listened to the general's order. It was not that they were afraid that the supplies would be taken away, but that the army's whereabouts had been inadvertently exposed by the general's orders.
However, the two of them overestimated Pingyang Jun a little and underestimated Pingyang Jun a little. What is overestimated is that Pingyang Jun, who has no war literacy, is almost unable to derive useful information about the general's position from the words of the messenger; what is underestimated is that as a senior politician, Pingyang Jun is obviously more open-minded than them.
Since you won't tell me, let's ask others. Just take advantage of the time when you are all still immersed in excitement and unprepared.
So, without waiting for the two men to respond, Pingyang Jun immediately asked the messenger: "Where are the general and the army now?"
"To the northeast of the city, about thirty miles away, repairs are being made on the spot." Seeing that the person who asked the question appeared with General Sun and others, the messenger naturally did not doubt that he was there, and thought he was someone from Dai's army. A general, when faced with his culture, he naturally blurted out.
"Okay!" Now it was Pingyang Jun's turn to be excited! Although I arrived a little late, I finally made it in time.
As long as Zhao Kuo is blocked here, most of his plan to destroy Hu will still be defeated! Without any hesitation, Lord Pingyang quickly walked out of the house.
It has to be said that Pingyang Jun is able to achieve his current high position not only because of his bloodline. Although he is not as knowledgeable and world-minded as his younger brother Pingyuan, he still has his own way of dealing with people.
At least, Pingyang Jun obviously did not lose to anyone when it came to making quick decisions. Seeing that it was impossible to find any advantage in Chen Xun and Sun Gu, Pingyang Jun immediately gave up the idea of the two leading the way. After getting the news from Zhao Kuo, he set off on the road without saying a word.
This resolute and resolute look even startled Chen Xun and Sun Gu. When they realized what they were doing, they didn't know what Pingyang Jun wanted to do, so they immediately chased after him.
Unfortunately, in such a stunned moment, Pingyang Jun had already walked several steps away.
"Ping Yangjun!"
"Pingyang Jun!" The two of them called Pingyang Jun from behind, but the more they called, the faster Pingyang Jun walked.
Clearly, each understands what the other wants to do. The chase came to an end until they left the concierge.
When you get out of the concierge, Sanggan City in front of you is already a sea of joy! The braziers were brought out one by one, and sections of green bamboo were thrown into the brazier. Amidst the crackling of firecrackers, there was laughter and laughter everywhere, and everyone was high-fiving!
Ignorant children shuttled among the crowd, the old man with white hair and beard couldn't help but burst into tears, a few strong men could only express their joy by hugging and slapping each other, and a few women were already happily carrying them. dance.
This is a victory that belongs to Zhao State, and even more so to Dai Di. The people of Daidi have been waiting for this hearty victory for too long... The people who came towards them were obviously shocked by the sudden excitement on the street.
"Pingyang Jun." General Chen Xun said with difficulty, but his eyes were looking at the people singing and dancing on the street.
Everything is left unsaid. However, Pingyang Jun seemed to turn a deaf ear to the laughter and laughter in the street. He only paused for a moment before leaving, and then continued walking towards his carriage, not even letting General Chen Xun say anything. over.
Of course Lord Pingyang knew what Chen Xun meant, but Lord Pingyang knew better what his mission was, and he knew more clearly who was more important, the common people or King Zhao!
No wonder Lord Pingyang, no one believes anything at the moment
The saying goes, "The people are more valuable than the king." Oh, maybe, not many people have ever believed this.
