Chapter 55: Thousands of Troops Retreat

"This is war! If it weren't for her, someone else would have died. She died today, just a little earlier. Didn't you think about her fate when you rebelled? Her husband and her children died in front of her, will she be able to forgive you? Can I wipe my tears and happily go with you to wander the rivers and lakes? Xu Yuan, you're too naΓ―ve, aren't you? Zhao Qian stared at Xu Yuan deadly, "Back then, you could give her up for your parents, and now, you can also give her up for the world." You were such a selfish person in the first place, that's why you have a career, and now the competition in the world is fierce, but you have trapped yourself in a situation of loyalty. When did you become so affectionate and righteous? If you are really affectionate and righteous, how can you come to take charge of the army? ”

"I beg Your Highness, let me stay with her for one more night, and tomorrow morning, I will send her... Send it away. Xu Yuan held her hand and said softly, as if he was afraid of waking her up, as if she was just asleep. Zhao Qian nodded, turned around and walked out of the military tent, he had not experienced the love of men and women, and he was not interested, he just didn't want his great cause to be hindered by a woman. In the military tent, a white-haired man said, "You see, that gun was given to me by my master, and I used it to kill many people." You haven't seen me kill people, he's right, since ancient times, there are no immortals in war. He put her hand to his mouth and kissed it gently. You said you didn't want to go back to Gyeonggi, but I had to send you back, I'm sorry, Kikige, I promised you nothing. I heard that people have the next life, if it is true, you will not meet me again, I have failed you. ”

Sitting alone for half a night, he went out of the military tent again, and was about to go to Zhaoqian to restore his life, when he saw a sergeant rushing over: "Urgent military report!" Get out of the way! The military report was sent to Zhao Qian's tent, Xu Yuan stomped into Zhao Qian's military tent, Zhao Qian's brows were furrowed under the candlelight, he saw Xu Yuan come in, and the military report in his hand was handed over. Look. Xu Yuan took it, Handan was in a hurry, and King Qin's army was already fifty miles away from Handan. He raised his head and looked at Zhao Qian: "These 600,000 people are half the life of Da Zhou." Zhao Qian nodded: "Yes, with our current 200,000 people, it is difficult to win, so we will send troops to attack Gyeonggi tonight, regardless of everything, we will also capture it." Xu Yuan shook his head: "Your Highness, no." "When is it now, you tell me you can't?" Don't just wait for someone to put a knife on your neck and mine! ”

"Why did they send troops to King Qin?" "Of course, it's the emperor's order to be the king." "If His Highness captures Gyeonggi, will King Qin's army take the initiative to bow to us? They are stronger than us, and if they blindly attack, then it is very likely that they will establish themselves as kings, and then they will be in a mess. "Where in the world is there a clan member surnamed Chai? They had no other choice. "Your Highness, you have been very clever since you were a child, but you have forgotten one thing." "What's the matter?" "In the world, in ancient times, it was not surnamed Chai." "This, the rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, and the people will definitely rise up against them." "Whoever rules over them, and the levies will not be less, and why will the people support you?"

"Just because I came out in troubled times, I have the image of a true dragon, and I can keep the world peaceful." "Dare to ask which emperor in the world does not think he has the ability? Your Highness was born too short a short time for the people to understand, and they will not easily follow you. "Then I'm going to Gyeonggi Castle now to dedicate my head to the imperial brother?" Let him kill me to calm his anger? "Your Highness, do you remember the young man who rescued you with me that day?" "Yes." "He is my junior brother, and he has a way to make His Highness the desire of the people of the world." "Where is he? How can I get him?"

"He should be coming soon, and the minister thinks that he should rush to the aid of Handan." Now that it has been said, Zhaoqian is still a little unwilling: "If the troops are divided, I will leave half of them to attack Gyeonggi, and you will take the cavalry to help Handan?" "That will be broken in batches, and then we will only have the only way to defeat the army." "How can you be sure that the forbidden army in Gyeonggi will not take advantage of our retreat and beat us hard?" "Your Highness, we now have two hole cards, one is General Qin Qiqin, and now the forbidden army doesn't know if General Qin has taken refuge in us, and they don't dare to move troops easily; The second hole card is, yes, the queen mother. "Yes, but although Qin Qi has the ability, he is only a general, the emperor will not change his will for him, although the empress is now in our hands, it is difficult to say whether they will temporarily change their minds and regard her as an outcast." So, we want to be fast. ”

In the early morning of the second day, Zhao Qian personally helped Empress Zigong out of the barracks and escorted her all the way to a distance of fifteen miles from Gyeonggi City. Liu Huizu had been waiting there for a long time on a tall horse. "What, anti-thief, do you think you are qualified to touch Niangniang's Zigong?" "I am Prince Shen...", "Do you have an edict from Your Majesty?" Self-proclaimed king, not thin-skinned! The personal soldier beside him couldn't stand it anymore, and was about to cut it with his sword, but Zhao Qian stopped him, "No matter how noble your official position is, it's just a relative, how long can you hold the government?" The queen Niangzi Palace is here, but you are so lazy, spread to the court, I think your good days are coming to an end. ”

"A hairy boy, what insight do you have, it's just messing around with a bunch of chaotic people, I advise you, stop the precipice as soon as possible, and I can still release you with a whole corpse." "Then I will keep this grace for you until the day I conquer Gyeonggi." Zhao Qian looked at Liu Huizu, his eyes full of undisguised hatred. Liu Huizu glanced at him indifferently: "It's up to you?" With your two jujubes? Next life. Before he finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and walked back, extremely arrogant. Zhao Qian's hands clenched into fists and released, he turned around and asked, "What time is it now?" "It's time." "Pinch a little, we should have pulled out the stockade, let's go back quickly and catch up with them." Xu Yuan led the vanguard of 50,000 cavalry to aid Handan, and Zhao Qian led the rear troops to catch up slowly, during which he had to guard against Liu Huizu's sneak attack when he woke up.

Here Liu Huizu humiliated Zhao Qianzhi and returned to Gyeonggi proudly, and when he arrived in Fuzhong, he said to his father Uncle Liu Laoguo: "I say, this Prince Shen is just like this, hanging his head and being angry, as if he had lost a battle." Uncle Guo glanced at him, "I have made an appointment with a strategist today, and you will accompany me to meet you in a while." "Come on, father, the siege has been under siege for so long, I haven't seen anyone who claims to have the ability, this kind of person is lying that he has the ability, just to make a false name."
