Chapter 40: A dilemma

"Your Majesty is overjoyed, Juyong Pass is a great victory, Lord Wu led the troops to arrive, defeated the barbarians, and held Juyong Pass. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" shouted the annunciator.

Emperor Qianyuan laughed loudly, and the dullness of many days was finally broken by this rare good news, "Haha, good! ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." The ministers in the court suddenly shouted in unison, and they all felt joy from the bottom of their hearts.

Emperor Qianyuan was also very happy, and said a lot of words to praise the martial prince, of course, now the martial prince is still leading people to fight in Juyong Pass, and his rewards must wait until the martial prince returns victoriously.

The courtiers began to discuss, the people on the front line are fighting, and the people in their rear naturally can't pull back, the supply of materials must be coordinated, and the most important thing is grain, grass and weapons, fortunately, this war is not in winter, and there is no need for cotton clothes and other clothes, otherwise they really can't prepare.

Emperor Qianyuan sat on the throne and nodded his head from time to time in agreement, as long as it was beneficial to the front line, everything would be played.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Rim is coming soon, you slow down." The third prince of Su hurriedly chased after Emperor Qianyuan.

Emperor Qianyuan strode in front, as if he didn't hear the words of Su San behind, his feet didn't stop, but he walked more and more happily.

After the imperial chariot arrived, Emperor Qianyuan was already about to walk to the imperial study.

Su San motioned for everyone to wait, and he cautiously stepped forward to ask.

"Bang!" The sound of the porcelain being broken sounded, and there was a dead silence in the imperial study, and after a long time, the voice of Emperor Qianyuan sounded in the room: "Come in and clean up, go and summon all the adults to come in." ”

Su San immediately took the order, carefully cleaned up the imperial study, put the broken teacup back on, and everything returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.

The look on Emperor Qianyuan's face only showed anger when no one was around, and when several cabinet ministers came in, he was already calm, and he looked like the omnipotent emperor again.

The cabinet minister is very happy, Juyong Pass is guarded, the gate of the dynasty has not been breached, since the prince Wu has led people to Juyong Pass, everything will develop in a good direction next.

Emperor Qianyuan said: "The thoughts of all the Qing families understand that the war is related to the safety of the dynasty, and no matter what happens, it must be dealt with as soon as possible. ”

The head of the household has always been crying and crying, but this time he did not speak, and all the ministers said that they would definitely complete His Majesty's explanation and jointly drive out the enemies of the barbarians.

My confession? Hehe!

The news of the victory at Juyongguan was like an omen that victory was coming, and soon the imperial court received a second message from the border pass, and they were led by the king of Wu to subdue one of the two lost cities.

It is rumored that Emperor Qianyuan was overjoyed and stood up in public, and he almost lost his temper, but everyone could see that His Majesty was very happy.

Just when everyone thought that the war at Juyong Pass would end soon and the barbarians would be expelled, the news from the front came again after a long time, pouring cold water on everyone, and the excitement finally calmed down.

Juyong Pass, dusk.

Wu Wang Ye and Mo Siyuan stood on the city wall, looking at the sunset in the distance, a day had passed, and they still had not made the slightest progress.

Mo Siyuan said: "Lord Wang, we can't keep confronting each other like this. ”

Lord Wu didn't know that this would be bad for him, but there was no better way at the moment.

"Deng Yun has been gone for most of the day, he should come back in time, and he will wait until he comes back to ask about the situation." Wu Wang Ye said.

The people on the city wall, led by Wu Wangye, all looked into the distance, it was the second city where Juyong Pass had fallen, and it was also their main target at present, but it was a pity that the barbarians were cunning and could not come out.

There was a hustle and bustle in the distance, and a team of people appeared in everyone's eyes, and it was Deng Yun who brought his people back.

The city gate opened, and Deng Yun went directly to report the situation to King Wu, his steps were slightly hurried, and his face was not very good-looking.

The soldiers under Deng Yun also had gloomy faces, and when they thought of something, they couldn't help but curse.

The people around couldn't help but ask curiously, and after listening to what they said, they became angry.

Deng Yun said angrily: "Lord Wang, those barbarians are simply not human, they treat the people in the city as animals, and every day they release a few people to play at the gate of the city, and the subordinates try to get close, but unfortunately they don't succeed." ”

As long as the people led by Deng Yun approached, the barbarians would shoot arrows to signal, but instead of shooting arrows to repel the enemy, they shot arrows at the innocent people around them to warn the attackers.

Deng Yun watched more than a dozen people lose their lives in the blink of an eye, so he could only order his subordinates to retreat.

Deng Yun said: "Lord Wang, I'm afraid that the situation in the city is not good, and when my subordinates see those who have been driven out, their faces are all pale, and some of them are still injured. ”

He couldn't say anything, Deng Yun joined the army when he was a teenager, and he has been following Lord Wu to fight in the south and north in Youzhou, it can be said that he has seen all kinds of scenes, but he has never seen such a despicable person as a barbarian.

He is not afraid of fighting with real swords and guns, but when he is angry with these innocent women and children, the barbarians are really despised.

Of course, this is not the time to think about whether or not to look down on the barbarians, and the question before everyone now is how they can capture the last city and save the lives of the people in the city.

When the barbarians attacked the city, they killed all the men in the city, but most of the women and children survived, and they are now using these people to resist, as long as the soldiers and horses of the martial prince approach, they will drag out these women and kill them.

Wu Wangye's brows furrowed tightly, the barbarians could not care about the lives of these women and children, but he couldn't ignore it, all the generals present were very angry when they heard this, they all wanted to rush in and kill those barbarians, but they couldn't.

Aggrieved!

The soldiers all felt aggrieved, especially the people whose home was Juyongguan, they guarded the border pass, but some of their relatives were captured by the barbarians, thinking of their situation at the moment, they were anxious one by one, and when they heard the news that Deng Yun brought back, they felt even more sad.

The soldier's momentum was hit, and the atmosphere of the entire Juyong Pass became depressed.

Wu Wang Ye said: "You go down first, you must calm everyone's emotions, let me think of a way." ”

When the generals heard the words, they turned around and left one by one.

Wu Wang Ye sat alone in the house, very worried, what should he do to rescue those innocent people and repel the barbarians, before he knew it, it was already late at night, and the entire Juyong Pass was quiet. (To be continued.) )
