"What is this golden soup that can help tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Pingliang County defend the city without breaking it?"
Li Xuanji's question showed that he still believed from the bottom of his heart that 'Li Feiyu' had defended Pingliang County, but he didn't know how.
When the emperor asked this question, all the ministers in the room began to talk about it.
"I ate fat sheep in golden soup yesterday. Could it be that golden soup?"
"What are you thinking about? How can there be so much golden soup among hundreds of thousands of people!"
"This Li Feiyu must have lied about his achievements for the sake of merit!"
In the main hall, some people were discussing what Jintang was, and some were accusing 'Li Feiyu' of lying about military information and delaying the fighter plane.
Yan Song was studying Wei Zhongxian's expression, trying to find out from his face whether the information he said was true or false.
Wei Zhongxian kowtowed heavily and hesitated to answer the emperor's question: "Your Majesty, that golden soup is actually...actually..."
"Tell the truth, I forgive you!"
Wei Zhongxian breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "That golden soup is actually boiled dung water!"
Everyone present was stunned after hearing this. The fat official who just mentioned the Golden Soup Sheep suddenly felt his stomach churn when he heard this interesting explanation. If he hadn't been in the main hall now, he would probably have eaten yesterday. The fat sheep that has passed the gold soup will be vomited out.
Wei Zhongxian explained while the iron was hot: "General Li said that this golden soup can not only burn the enemy troops, but its smell after cooking will become even more stinky, and it can demoralize the Huns and Khitan coalition troops."
After Emperor Li Xuanji heard this explanation, he was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! What kind of brain does this Li Feiyu have? He can actually come up with such a despicable trick to defend the city."
"I can already imagine the stench on the Huns and Khitans after they were splashed with gold soup!"
Emperor Li Xuanji smiled like this, obviously recognizing the contribution of "Li Feiyu".
What Zhou Yi didn't know was that because his golden soup defense was told to the emperor and ministers by Wei Zhongxian in the main hall, he would have to face the "smell-smelling" golden soup every time he attacked a Chen Guo county in the future.
Yan Song jumped out at the right time and asked for credit for his adopted son Li Feiyu: "Your Majesty, this Li Feiyu not only has the courage that ten thousand men cannot deserve, but he also invented the golden soup strategy to defend the city and wiped out 100,000 enemies. It can be said that he is powerful." Brave and resourceful. The humble minister is so bold that your majesty please give him a big reward!"
Li Xuanji also had this intention, and was thinking about what kind of official position Feng Li Feiyu would be good for, when Grand Master Wen Boyue jumped out again.
"Reporting to your majesty, Pingliang County and most of Yongzhou are still in the hands of hundreds of thousands of Khitan Xiongnu troops. It is really not appropriate to award rewards at this time!"
"What's more, if they continue to move south after conquering Yongzhou, they will definitely quickly defeat the eighty-six counties in Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou. By then, Dachen will be in danger! Why not take advantage of the fact that the enemy troops are still besieging Pingjiang County, and your Majesty will mobilize Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou, 200,000 troops and horses from the three states work together to attack the enemy, and they will definitely turn defeat into victory."
Li Xuanji hated Grand Master Wen Boyue very much. Not only was he unable to understand or figure out the emperor's feelings, he also poured cold water on the emperor from time to time, which was off-putting.
Finally, because Li Feiyu killed the surrendered general Zhang Biao, his original mood improved. But after hearing what the Grand Master said, his mood suddenly became cloudy again.
Just when Li Xuanji was about to get angry, there was another loud noise outside the hall.
This is the emergency bell for 800 miles!
The atmosphere in the main hall, which was originally relaxed due to "Li Feiyu"'s achievements in stopping the Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces of 100,000 people, instantly became tense and tense.
Many people speculate that this information is likely to be broken in Pingjiang County, and the Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces are aggressively invading more than 20 counties in Yongzhou.
Not long after, an exhausted Pingjiang County soldier was carried into the palace by two imperial guards in armor.
The gloomy-faced Minister of War, Cheng Ju, asked eagerly: "What kind of information is there about the urgent situation of 800 miles from the front line!"
The soldier who reported the message raised the letter in his hand with difficulty and said: "Big...big...great victory! Great victory on the front line!"
The ministers in the court seemed to have heard wrongly and could not believe their ears.
This frontline 800-mile expedited operation is another good news?
Chen Ju, the Minister of War, couldn't believe it and quickly went to take the "good news" from the soldier who delivered the message.
After discovering that the fire paint was complete, he hurriedly handed it to Emperor Li Xuanji.
Li Xuanji quickly opened the letter, read it hastily and laughed heartily again.
All the officials in the court looked at Li Xuanji with bewildered expressions. The Grand Master Wen Boyue asked impatiently: "What happened to your Majesty?"
Li Xuanji threw the good news to Wen Boyue and asked him to read it loudly to the court officials.
Wen Boyue read eagerly: "Pingjiang County Magistrate Zhou Yi cherished the idea that the city was still alive but the people were still there, and the city perished and people perished to serve the country and defend the city, so he ordered people to seal the three gates with huge stones and only leave the east gate."
Hearing this, all the people in the court, led by Wen Boyue, were moved to tears by Zhou Yi's desire to serve the country.
"The Khitan and Huns allied forces were unable to enter at the three gates, so they gathered heavy troops and stormed the east gate. Three days later, at midnight, the east gate city was broken. Zhou Yi ordered all the cattle in the city to be gathered together, with sharp knives tied on their heads and fire on their tails. The formation defeated hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, killed countless enemies, and captured more than 50,000 Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces."
Zhou Yi deliberately underreported the number of prisoners, but with this number, all the officials in the court felt that Zhou Yi was lying about the military situation just like Li Feiyu.
Yan Song also imitated Taishi Wen Bo Yue and jumped out to disappoint him, saying: "The Xiongnu (Khitan) is invincible if it is less than 10,000 people. How could Zhou Yi, the magistrate of Pingjiang County, capture more than 50,000 people? I ask your majesty to kill this one." Zhou Yi, the magistrate of Pingjiang County, lied about military information and falsely reported military exploits!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a military detective from Qingzhou came to report in a hurry.
"Reporting to your majesty, the Khitan king recently lost his life. According to inquiries from the Qingzhou governor, it seems that Khitan King Ashinabadu was gored to death by an ox in Yongzhou!"
As soon as this news came out, everyone in the court stared with eyes as big as a bull's eye.
In the 800-liga emergency report just received, Zhou Yi used the Fire Bull Formation to kill hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu and Khitan coalition forces. At this time, Qingzhou also found out that Khitan King Ashinaba was killed by an ox. In this way, what would happen? This verified Zhouyi's good news.
This is when Wen Taishi added insult to injury and said: "Mr. Yan, the Khitan King Ashinaba has been killed by the horns of an ox, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of Khitan Xiongnu's coalition forces that look like chickens and dogs? Pingjiang County Magistrate Zhou Yi It should be okay to capture these people, right?"
Yan Song glanced at Master Wen and said with a smile: "It's true, of course it's true!"
