Chapter 498: Returning to China
Ho Kyung Yingkang took it.
But the matter is far from over, so Ying Kang looked at the general of Hojing and said: "General, the widow of Hojing is taken over, but there is a sentence that the widow must say in front, that is, the garrison of Hojing." I wonder what the general thinks? ”
Garrison questions?
The Ho Kyung Guard knows that people are going to ask about the sovereignty of Ho Kyung.
In ancient and modern times, the two most important symbols of sovereignty in China and abroad are diplomacy and military garrisons.
Since Ying Kang has taken over Hojing, that is to say, from now on, Hojing is from Qin, and people should also ask about the garrison.
This one?
The general was stunned, and then said, "What does the king mean?" ”
Ying Kang knew that the wisdom of the people of the Zhou Dynasty in the west could not understand the important role of sovereignty, so he asked General Haojing: "In the general's opinion, after Haojing returns to Qin, can you hold the big city of Haojing with your current strength?" ”
There are three ways to say it, and it is better to say it skillfully.
As soon as Ying Kang asked, General Ho Jing was immediately unhappy, "What do you mean by this?" If our little strength can hold Hojing, why do we need to defect to Qin, it is because I know that my troops can't hold Haojing, so I am willing to defect to the Qin people. You say, what to do, you just look at it, I don't have any opinion. ”
It is clear that the general Hokyo is a straight man.
"Okay, since the general said so, then the widow can say it, the widow decided that Chen Xing will lead five thousand Qin troops to garrison Haojing, and you will assist Chen Xing, what does the general think?" Ying Kang gave his thoughts to General Ho Kyung.
Of course, don't say that General Hojing himself feels that the royal army's army can't hold Hojing, and Yingkang himself feels that they can't hold it.
For the sake of Hojing's future, Yingkang decided that Chen Xing would be stationed in Hojing.
The king's words have been said for this, what else can General Hokyo say? I had no choice but to reply: "The last general is willing to assist Chen Xing in garrisoning Hojing." ”
The development of things really exceeded Yingkang's expectations, I thought that as long as the current Qin people could hold the land and population in the western part of Guanzhong, they would already be very good, but they didn't expect to get such a big city as Haojing unintentionally.
It can really be said: there is no intention to plant flowers and flowers, and there is no intention to plant willows and willows.
Ho Jing's affairs are arranged, and it is time for Ying Kang to lead his troops back to Yucheng. There are still hundreds of miles of land from Hokyo Road, and these distances take several days in the Western Weekend New Year, when walking on two legs.
Since the soldiers of the Qin army led by Yingkang were all handed over to Chen Xing to garrison Haojing, there was no need for Yingkang to be so complicated at the moment, leading a small number of Qin soldiers to ride to Yucheng.
It's been so many days, and Yingkang has missed Yucheng a little, especially in Yucheng, there is such a stunner as Bao Xi.
As soon as he thought of Bao Xi, Yingkang's heart itched.
Bao Xi, Bao Xi, you, you, why are you so memorable? No wonder the Heavenly Palace will die because of you, it's hard for me to say if it's you!
Since ancient times, there has been an ironclad law, that is, heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass. As long as you are a hero, you can't pass this level, although I'm not a hero, I'm even more sad to pass the beauty level.
Along the way, Ying Kang thought while walking, and the next day Ying Kang returned to Yucheng with a few Qin soldiers.
As soon as he returned to Yucheng, Ying Kang was about to go to the Bao Xi Palace after simply packing up, when Prime Minister Ying Zhao and Sima Boyu came in.
"Hey--, why is it so annoying?" Seeing the two of them coming in, Yingkang couldn't help but feel a little irritable. Although I didn't say it, I already muttered it in my heart.
"The minister has seen the king."
"Minister Zhao Boyu has seen the king."
After seeing Yingkang, Prime Minister Yingzhao and Sima Boyu bowed.
Since the two of them had already come, Yingkang couldn't go any longer, so he had to sit down and say to the two: "Two Aiqing, get up quickly, please sit down and talk." ”
Yingzhao and Zhao Boyu sat down in front of the desk on both sides.
"The two Aiqing have something to say, please speak." After the two sat down, Yingkang said to the two.
Ying glanced at Zhao Boyu and motioned for him to report on the situation of the battles these days.
Zhao Boyu understood, and reported to Ying Kangyu in a low voice: "Your Majesty, many things have happened to the Qin people in the past few days since you left, especially in the Battle of Jiankuoling, our army suffered heavy losses, and more than a thousand Qin troops and thousands of Chang were killed in battle. Then the dog Rong attacked Chenyi, and in the process of defending the city, our Qin people suffered losses again, and about 2,000 soldiers and people were killed by the dog Rong. ”
After Zhao Boyu finished speaking, Yingzhao continued: "In the past few days that the king has left, the minister has the responsibility of supervising the country, and the Qin people have suffered losses one after another, and the minister has an unshirkable responsibility, please dispose of the minister." ”
Without waiting for Zhao Boyu to finish speaking, Yingzhao took the initiative to take the initiative.
"Your Majesty, you can't completely blame Xiangguo for this matter, after you leave, I will be in charge of the affairs of the army, our city has been attacked by the enemy one after another, the army has suffered heavy losses, and the people have been killed one after another, which is the dereliction of duty of the last general. The minister asked the king not to dispose of the country, and if he wanted to deal with it, he would deal with the general. As soon as Yingzhao's words fell, Zhao Boyu followed up again.
Hey, what a big deal! Is it worth taking responsibility for both?
Ying Kang then said to the two: "The two Aiqing don't want to tell each other, the widow already knows what happened after I left." The attack on the Qin people by the dog Rong has been planned for a long time. In the case of the Qin people's lack of strength, it is already very good that you can do this. ”
Subsequently, Ying Kang said to Ying Zhao and Zhao Boyu: "Such a cruel fact is in front of you, that is, the two of you are here to take responsibility, if it is someone else, the Qin people may die in the country." To tell you the truth, I am very satisfied with your approach, and I am even more pleased that the Qin people have protected the city and the people under your leadership. Lay it down, the widow will not blame you. ”
Hearing that Yingkang not only did not blame himself, but was also happy that he had made a contribution to defending the city, Zhao Boyuan was very excited, and said to Yingzhao: "Xiangguo, I'll just say that our Qin people just have such soldiers and horses, and it's very good to be able to defend the city, and it's impossible to defeat the dog Rong." You still don't believe it, now that you hear it, the king has said it, and he doesn't blame us. ”
Although Zhao Boyuan was very excited, Yingzhao, as the prime minister, was not as excited as him, but said to Yingkang affectionately and solemnly: "Your Majesty, when we were attacked by the dogs, was the Qin army led by you also attacked by the enemy?" ”
Ying Kang nodded: "Xiangguo is right, we were indeed attacked by the dog Rong." ”
"Oh?" Yingzhao was taken aback for a long time, and then asked tentatively, "So all of our five thousand troops were killed by the dog Rong?" ”
After all, when Yingkang left, he took five thousand Qin troops with him, and when he came back, he brought back dozens of personal soldiers, and anyone would be surprised.
"That's right, did the king give all our 5,000 troops to the dog Rong?" Zhao Boyu hurriedly asked when he heard this.
Ying Kang shook his head: "No, our army was indeed pursued by the dog Rong, but they did not hurt our army, but their 5,000 pursuers were all burned to death by our army in China." ”
Yes?
Hearing Yingkang's words, Zhao Boyu was surprised, "Your Excellency said that you burned all the five thousand cavalry of the dog Rong to death?" Your Majesty! You are so powerful, the last general really admires you so much! ”
