For more than a year, war reports have been sent to the capital almost every day at the border gates. These battle reports will be sent to the cabinet, and after the cabinet elders have read them, they will pick out the important ones and send them to the Funing Palace.

There is only one kind of battle report, which will be sent directly to the Funing Hall without going through the cabinet.

This is Gu Jinxing's own handwritten secret music!

Gu Wanning's heartbeat was inexplicably faster, and he suddenly had a premonition. This will be a pleasant surprise!

Xiao Xu also had the same hunch, and he and Gu Wanning quickly glanced at each other, and they both saw the light jumping under each other's eyes.

"You wait, I'll open the door. Gu Guanning got up first and went to open the door in person.

The little nobleman hurriedly came, sweating on his forehead, and respectfully presented the secret music in his hand: "Please present it to the emperor." ”

Gu Wanning hummed and took the fold.

In order to ensure the secrecy of the tantra and prevent it from being dismantled and peeped in the middle of the way, the recital has undergone special treatment. When opened, there was a blank space. After soaking it in a special potion, the handwriting will be revealed.

After a cup of tea.

On the blank fold, Gu Jinxing's familiar handwriting is revealed.

Gu Jinxing is serious by nature, and his handwriting is also extraordinarily calm. This letter was written in a hearty way, and the flying ink revealed the ecstasy that Gu Jinxing couldn't hide.

“…… Ji Tong lurked in the dark for several months, although he failed to capture the Tubo National Teacher and Xiao Rui. He led the secret guards to hide in the dark for several months, and finally caught the opportunity to assassinate the prince of Tubo!"

The prince of Tibet was assassinated and killed!

Such amazing good news, even Xiao Xu and Gu Wanning did not expect it, and they stood up almost at the same time, with surprise flashing in their eyes.

The Turks have already begun to retreat, and the Tibetans, who insist on refusing to withdraw their troops, have died as their commanders. The border army has completely gained the upper hand, and there is no need to say what the outcome of this battle will be!

"Great! It's great!" Xiao Xu was excited, and he was a little incoherent: "I really didn't expect Ji Tong to make such a great achievement!"

The dull gloom that had been suppressed in my heart for a long time disappeared at this moment, and great joy filled my chest.

Gu Wanning's brows also relaxed, and the corners of his mouth raised high: "This Ji Tong, the last time I assassinated Xiao Rui, I didn't succeed, but there was a lot of damage. I don't know how much strength I have held back in my heart, this time I really made a miraculous achievement!"

"You have to be rewarded! You must be rewarded heavily!" Xiao Xu answered without thinking.

Gu Wanning pursed his lips and smiled: "When they return with a big victory, they will naturally be rewarded for their merits." Let's read this tantra first. ”

Xiao Xu nodded, and his gaze fell back on the fold.

……

"This battle was very tragic. Most of the 1,000 personal soldiers of the Tibetan prince were lost. The more than 300 secret guards led by Ji Tong were almost killed and wounded. ”

Ji Tong was seriously injured and fled back overnight. Fortunately, Shen Jinyan, who had superb medical skills, left many precious wound medicines and precious medicinal materials behind that day. reluctantly snatched Ji Tong's life back. ”

"However, if you can have this result, it will be worth the sacrifice. ”

It is indeed worth exchanging the lives of the Gu family's secret guards for the death of the prince of Tubo!

It's just that thinking of the young and heroic Gu family children returning to another country, Gu Wanning's heart was heavy, and the smile on the corner of his lips gradually converged.

Gu Jinxing went to the border this time, and the Gu family had no reservations, and had already used all the people who could use it.

Every secret guard who died at the border pass was carefully cultivated by the Gu family after several years of work. Now that there are almost all dead and wounded, it is undoubtedly a sad and heavy blow to the Gu family!

Xiao Xu also fell silent, and after a while, he whispered: "A Ning, the Gu family is brave and loyal, I will definitely tell the world." It will also make the Gu family enjoy honor and wealth forever. ”

This is the promise of the Great Qin Heavenly Son!

A flash of water flashed in Gu Wanning's eyes. She hummed softly and lowered her eyelids.

……

This battle report was obviously written in a hurry by Gu Jinxing, and it is completely different from the rigor and seriousness of the peacetime. It's quite a bit of a family letter.

Gu Jinxing wrote: "The minister has studied the art of war for many years, and when he arrived at the border, he knew what was on paper and finally felt shallow. For more than a year, the minister has been sitting in the rear, commanding the border army, and has not led the troops into battle. However, I learned a lot. ”

"When the ministers calm the border passes and lead the troops back to Beijing, they will personally explain to the emperor one by one. ”

"The matter of the emperor's illness involves the Tubo National Teacher and Xiao Rui. The minister will definitely bring the two of them back to the capital! I also implore the emperor to take care of the dragon's body and wait for the victory of our Great Qin border army to return to Beijing!"

The last few words made Xiao Xu feel agitated.

Gu Guanning also cheered up and said with a smile: "War can temper a person's heart the most. Big brother is now a qualified commander in the army!"

Xiao Xu smiled: "I feel this way too." I hope he will return to Beijing victoriously as soon as possible. ”

……

Early the next morning, Xiao Xu summoned the important ministers into the Funing Hall to make the good news on the secret music public.

For a while, everyone was happy.

The death of the Lord will be a fatal blow to the army. Gu Chung died that day, if it weren't for the Gu family generals to stabilize the situation in the army, the border army would have already collapsed.

As soon as the Tibetan prince dies, the Tibetan army will be in turmoil. The Turks suffered heavy casualties and retreated. The situation is very good, and the victory of the border army is in sight!

Wang Ge Lao bowed his hand with a happy face: "In this way, the border army will soon return with a great victory." Congratulations to the Emperor!"

The ministers bowed their hands together: "Congratulations to the emperor!"

Xiao Xu was in excellent spirits, and said with a smile: "Okay, I and Zhu Aiqing are waiting for the good news of the border army's victory!"

In the midst of jubilation, Gu Hai, who was the secretary of the ministry, looked a little heavy.

The Gu family's secret guards were originally secretly in charge of him. This time, for the sake of the border army, he did not hesitate to give an order, and ordered all the secret guards to accompany Gu Jinxing.

When he made this decision, he was mentally prepared. When this moment really came, he realized how heartbroken he was.

Brave and loyal, he returned victorious.

These eight words are soaked in the blood of countless Gu family children.

This sorrow cannot be revealed, but can only be hidden in the bottom of the heart.

Gu Hai took a deep breath and tried his best to press down the chaos in his heart, forcing himself to show an appropriate look of joy.

Until evening.

Back at the Dingbei Hou Mansion, Gu Haicai took off the mask he had been wearing all day, revealing exhaustion and pain.

When Mrs. Tai saw Gu Hai like this, her heart sank: "Third child, what's wrong? Why do you look like this?"

Gu Hai cheered up and told Ji Tong about the assassination of the prince of Tubo by Ji Tong's secret guard: "...... Ji Tong killed the prince of Tubo and made a great contribution. The emperor was very excited, and the ministers were excited. The border army has completely gained the upper hand, and it will not be long before this battle can be completed. ”

A big victory for the border army is just around the corner!

And the Gu family's secret guards who died at the border will never come back.
