Chapter 369: Great ups and downs
When Qin Ming fled, the state of Chu, the imperial palace, and the Qingxin Palace.
The emperor looked at the generals and ministers below and said, "Border Pass, no news has come?" β
"Back to Your Majesty, it's been five days, and there is no news yet!" It was the military department Shangshu who spoke, and after he finished speaking, he frowned and said:
"It stands to reason that as soon as you arrive on the battlefield, there will be news that you are ready to fight. However, no news has come back, which is not normal. β
The emperor took a deep breath and said, "Perhaps...... I haven't sent back the news in time! β
The military department Shangshu secretly glanced at the emperor and said, "Maybe it'...... It was a battle that broke out as soon as it arrived, and the situation could be ...... Bad ......"
The emperor's face was not good-looking, and although the ministers and generals present were not good-looking on the surface, they were all happy in their hearts.
At this moment, a eunuch rushed in with a letter and said, "Your Majesty, the border gate has come to report ......."
The emperor hurriedly stood up: "Give me!" β
As he spoke, he took it and looked at it carefully.
"Fifty thousand...... Annihilation of all ......"
The emperor was shocked!
Hearing this, several ministers such as Shangshu of the Ministry of War were overjoyed, and then they listened to him pretend to be ugly:
"Your Majesty, all of our 50,000 soldiers and horses are ...... Sacrificed? That...... Isn't Qin Ming ......"
Although he pretended to be worried, this thing was actually very happy, and he wished that Qin Ming was dead.
Not only him, but also several ministers present were very happy.
However, the emperor shook his head and said:
"It's not our soldiers, it's ...... The 50,000 people of Liguo were all annihilated by Qin Ming! β
Hearing this, several ministers were stunned at first, and they didn't seem to understand much.
Then I heard the military department Shangshu say: "Qin Ming killed the other party's 50,000 soldiers and horses? This...... Kill 50,000 as soon as you go? β
The emperor nodded: "The military report said that when Qin Ming led the troops to arrive, the Boundary River was poisoned by the other party, and then the other party hid it, creating the illusion that they had not yet arrived, and wanted our army to drink the river water and poison it."
However, Qin Ming saw through it, solved the poison of the river water, and then deliberately poisoned it, lured the enemy over, and killed 50,000 of them, and our army basically had no casualties. β
After the emperor finished speaking, he laughed: "It's worthy of Qin Ming, he didn't disappoint me!" β
The ministers and generals below just smiled professionally, but they were not happy in their hearts.
β¦β¦
On the other side, the eldest princess and the second princess were drinking tea together.
Qin Ming went to the battlefield, which was what they wanted to see.
"The two sisters fought for two years before we found out that the real enemy was actually in common." Princess Celestia scoffed.
The second princess took a sip of tea, put the cup down, and said, "No matter how we fight, Qin Ming will always be our stumbling block, if he doesn't get rid of it for a day, we will never have results." β
"Fortunately, he is looking for death by himself this time, 50,000 soldiers and horses, I'm afraid they will all be explained at the border......" After the eldest princess finished speaking, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
At this time, the secretary of the military department hurriedly came: "The lower official has seen the two princesses!" β
"Lord Shangshu is in such a hurry, why is it the matter?" Princess Celestia held the teacup and asked without hurry.
"Back to His Highness, 50,000 soldiers and horses died at the border pass......"
The eldest princess and the second princess looked happy, and said in unison, "Is Qin Ming dead?" β
The military department Shangshu said: "There is no ......"
"Alas...... That's quite disappointing! Princess Celestia said.
The second princess frowned: "Fifty thousand are all dead?" These 50,000 iron horsemen are the strong soldiers of my Chu State, how could they all die all at once? β
"The two princesses misunderstood, it was Qin Ming who killed 50,000 soldiers and horses in Liguo...... "The military department Shangshu said helplessly.
As soon as these words came out, the bodies of the two princesses shook, and then the second princess glared: "How is this possible?" β
"It's true, I just came from Your Majesty, the battle report from the border pass said so, and Qin Ming's iron horse, no one died."
"This ......" Princess Celestia said with an ugly face, "how can it be ......"
The second princess also gasped, and her heart was complicated.
"Two princesses, Your Majesty asked me to invite you to the Pure Heart Palace." The military department Shangshu said again.
Princess Celestia asked, "What did you call us?" β
"I don't know, it should be about this border war, not only two, but also six officials, and several generals."
The eldest princess and the second princess looked at each other, then got up and went to the palace.
In a short time, in the palace, the Qingxin Palace, the six Shangshu and the squire, as well as several military attachΓ©s and generals, had already arrived.
When the eldest princess and the second princess arrived, they both stood on both sides.
At this moment, the emperor has another battle report in his hand.
"This is another battle report just sent, the situation is not optimistic!" The emperor had a calm face.
One of the ministers asked, "Your Majesty, how?" β
The emperor said, "It says that after killing 50,000 soldiers and horses, they were besieged by 100,000 soldiers and horses of Liguo......"
"That'...... Isn't Qin Ming unable to resist? A general said.
The emperor shook his head: "Blocked, without causing too many casualties, Qin Ming killed thousands of enemies, and the 100,000 soldiers and horses who retreated lost their armor and fled." β
"What?" The general looked incredulous and said:
"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers owe, how can these 50,000 soldiers and horses force the 100,000 soldiers and horses to lose their armor?"
The emperor glanced at the general who was speaking, and said, "Could it be that the war report can still be fake?" β
"Uh...... It can't be ......," the general hurriedly bowed his head.
The second princess was puzzled: "Father, didn't you say that the situation is not optimistic?" β
"Well, because of Qin Ming, it's too impulsive." The Emperor sighed.
The eldest princess and the second princess both pretended to be surprised, and then the eldest princess asked, "Father, what's wrong?" β
"General, killed~" The emperor spoke.
The ministers present were all stunned, and they all thought of Qin Ming at the same time.
Isn't the general Qin Ming? Qin Ming is dead?
Several almost couldn't help but laugh.
However, the emperor shook his head and said, "It's not Qin Ming who died, it's Qin Ming, alone, who broke into the other party's military camp with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses." β
The second princess was happy in her heart, but she said, "This ...... It's really not optimistic......"
The ministers present basically gave a sigh of relief, these are like this, Qin Ming is not dead?
However, the emperor continued: "But fortunately, Qin Ming alone killed dozens of generals in Liguo, including the marshal. β
Ga~
The ministers who were still happy in their hearts just now suddenly sank to the bottom.
At the same time, they were shocked and didn't understand how Qin Ming managed to kill the enemy generals, including the marshal.
"Your Majesty, this ...... How is that possible? Liguo is not hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses? How could he kill the opposing generals? "I really don't believe it.
The emperor smiled and said, "The battle report said that Qin Ming was alone, entered the enemy camp, took the heads of countless generals of the enemy army, and finally Qin Ming ......"
Princess Celestia was dumbfounded: "Dead? β
"Not really!" The emperor shook his head: "In the end, Qin Ming went safely!" β
The ministers were a little speechless, happy for a while and disappointed for a while, thinking to themselves, Your Majesty, can't you make your words clear at one time? I can't stand this big ups and downs!
