After the general grasped the real situation of Pingliang Prefecture and Anzhou City, he ordered the withdrawal of the army and returned to Qingping Mansion, and then did not stop, rode back to Tiandu City on horseback, and went straight to the palace. Before leaving, Lenta had already told the general, and he came to the palace to report the news as soon as possible.

At this time, Lenta happened to be studying political affairs with Na Xuan.

Lunta said with a smile: "Holy Lord, those tens of thousands of yellow sheep have been transported, and now the entire city of Tiandu City is jubilant. The common people are so happy! Firecrackers have been set off. ”

After hearing such good news, he couldn't help laughing. It's been a long time, and I've finally heard exciting news.

While the two were laughing, the eunuch came to report that the general sent to Anzhou City had returned.

After hearing this, he glanced at Lenta and said, "Hurry up and call me." ”

"Yes, Holy." The eunuch bowed and turned and went out.

After the eunuch was gone, he looked at Lenta in a daze, and his expression was a little apprehensive. Renta frowned as well.

He was stunned and said, "I really hope it can be good news!" ”

Lenta said, "Holy Lord, rest assured, it will be good news. ”

He smiled and nodded again, he had been analyzing in his heart for the past few days, the more than 200,000 troops led by Bata would not be wiped out no matter what. Not to mention that Nabata is a person who can fight well and has made military achievements, even if he sends an ordinary general, it will not lead to the annihilation of the whole army.

At this point, when he heard Renta say this, he trusted his own judgment.

"Well, this Bata dares to block the news from me. I won't spare him. He said fiercely, and when he thought of Bata, he felt resentment in his heart.

At this time, Lenta said: "Holy Lord, as long as General Bata can return safely and ensure that our army does not suffer major casualties, it will be a great achievement. You must know that the Holy Lord ordered him to take Pingliang Prefecture, which is almost an impossible task. ”

Hearing Lenta say this, the stunned was slightly relieved. sighed and said, "What the prime minister said also makes sense. Since this Pingliang Prefecture can't be defeated, let's deploy heavy troops around Pingliang Prefecture to defend it! ”

"Well, this strategy of the Holy One is right. Since Pingliang Prefecture can't get it back for the time being, it will surround it, so that the Han army will not be able to face us from here to use troops in an all-round way. Renta said.

Na nodded and said: "I have deployed a strong defense force in the important place east of Anzhou City, even if the Han army has defeated Anzhou City, it will not be able to attack Middle-earth. ”

Lenta nodded and said, "The Holy Lord's precautionary action is really timely. The minister felt very impressed! ”

Listening to Lenta's sycophant, the smug smiled and said, "I know what is most important. The city of Anju is nothing more than an outpost. Moreover, Heping Liangzhou is located in the west, desolate and poor. What I want to keep is a large area of land south of Middle-earth as far south as the Tianjiang River. This is the foundation of life. ”

"Holy Wisdom." Renta said, continuing to pat the stunned ass.

However, Na You frowned, pondered for a moment and said, "It's just that the location of this Pingliang Prefecture is also very critical!" I can't take it lightly. ”

"Yes, Shengshang, I still have to find a way to get back Pingliang Prefecture in the future. Even if we can't get it back, we must besiege Pingliangzhou to death, so that the Han army will not be able to use it as a base for attacking our Middle Earth. Renta said.

After listening to Lenta's words, he felt that it made sense, so he nodded and said, "Well, what the prime minister said is very true. ”

As he spoke, the eunuch brought the general who was waiting outside the palace gate into the main hall.

When the general saw the stunned, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "The last general will see the saint." ”

"Get up and talk!" He waved his hand and said.

"Thank you." The general stood up.

Na was stunned and asked, "Tell me about the situation in Pingliang Prefecture." ”

The general immediately showed a sad expression. This expression made the stunned and Lenta's heart sink suddenly.

"What's wrong?" The stunned asked with great anxiety.

The general bowed and said, "Back to the Holy Lord, Anzhou City has lost ......"

Before the general could finish speaking, he slapped the table in surprise and shouted, "What? ”

The general was startled by the loud voice like a bronze bell, but he still had to report it, so he continued: "Back to the Shengshang, Anzhou City has been occupied by the Han army. In addition, a road was built from the Black Tiger Ridge in the south to the Shenshou Ridge in the north to the western artery. Moreover, the Han army also built a military camp that could station 100,000 soldiers on the main road. ”

The more I listened to it, the more shocked I became, as if the sky had fallen. And Renta's face changed.

"What about Bata and his army?" The stunned suddenly remembered his army, so he asked anxiously.

The general said: "Back to the Holy Lord, General Bata attacked Pingliangzhou and lost 200,000 horses, and finally he felt that there was no way to explain to the Holy Lord, so he fled to the desert in the north with the remaining 60,000 people. ”

"What? 200,000 people are dead? "I just couldn't believe my ears.

"Yes, Holy Lord, that's what Han Jun said." The general said.

"What? What did Han Jun say to you? He said in a daze.

"Yes, the Holy One, when the last general found that the entire city of Anzhou was occupied by the Han army, he knew that General Bata had failed to attack, so he retreated with his army, and then, the Han army sent someone to follow us and say this." The general said.

After listening to this, his body sank suddenly, and he froze.

Renta hurriedly said to the general, "You go first!" ”

"Yes, Prime Minister." As he spoke, the general knelt down again and said, "Holy Lord, the last general will retire." With that, he got up and hurried away.

There was silence in the hall, and even Lenta didn't know what to say at this time.

After a while, he smashed the table with his fist and said angrily: "This Bata, I am blind, let him attack Pingliangzhou." Outcome...... Ay! As he spoke, he shook the table again, and the resentment was palpable.

At this time, Lenta said: "Holy Lord, please dissipate your anger, we have not expected this situation. It's time to think about the defense outside Anju. If the Han army is marching eastward, then we will be passive. ”

He was stunned and said: "Prime Minister, the Han army will not attack to the east for the time being." ”

"Why, Holy One?" Renta didn't quite understand what she was saying, so she asked.

"Our defense in the east is very strong, and they also need to adjust. ”

Renta nodded and said, "Hmm." His God's words are very reasonable. ”
