Chapter 342: If you can't give up, you have to give up
It is difficult for a person who grew up in a peaceful era to face death, let alone so many people died.
She had already decided that the next time there was a battle, she would wait until the gate was breached and leave, which was already the maximum she could bear.
"Meet the Marquis of Chang'an." Bai Wenbo got off the horse, looked at Wei Dachuan, the Marquis of Chang'an, who came to greet him, and saluted with his fists.
The Bai family and the Wei family have a general personal relationship, but Wei Dachuan is a person of the same generation as their father Bai Hongyuan, and he is their elder, and the number of courtesies that should be there is no less.
"The virtuous nephew is finally here, these days my Zhenbei army and the men and horses sent by the governors of several nearby provinces have suffered heavy casualties, and now the morale of the army is low, just waiting for the emperor to send someone to support." Wei Dachuan said with a tired face.
"Uncle Wei, the emperor only asked me to bring 20,000 horses here, and before leaving, the emperor ordered that we must take Eagle City and rescue the three princesses, otherwise my Great Yan Dynasty will be swept away, and the more than ten vassal countries around will definitely take the opportunity to cause chaos." Bai Wenbo looked at Wei Dachuan and said with a solemn face.
"Since this is the emperor's holy decree, then we can only go all out to take Eagle City." Wei Dachuan gritted his teeth and said.
After the previous battle, more than 60,000 of his 200,000 Zhenbei troops died, which was the men and horses accumulated by the Marquis of Chang'an in the past dynasties, and it was the foundation for them to gain a foothold in this world for their family.
However, as long as they can take Eagle City, the emperor will definitely allocate enough silver for them to retrain a group of tiger and wolf divisions.
It's just that in this way, at least another ten years will have to wait for the Zhenbei Army to become a climate.
When his son takes over the position of Marquis of Chang'an, it will definitely be very hard.
No matter how reluctant he is, he can't disobey the king's order.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Great Yan Dynasty, there were not only the four major princes, at that time, there were also the four princely mansions above them, and there were four princely mansions on an equal footing with them.
Hundreds of years have passed, why are only their four major marquis mansions left? That's because they are loyal enough and loyal to the emperor, whoever sits on the throne of God is the object of their allegiance, and they never dare to rebel, so they can continue the glory of the family to this day.
"Thank you, Uncle Wei." Bai Wenbo saw that Wei Dachuan did not mean to disobey the yang and the yin, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Virtuous nephew, you are sent by the emperor to send a messenger, the emperor personally named the general Weiyuan, the old man will follow the emperor's holy decree and hand over the military power to you, from now on, whether it is the Zhenbei Army or the people and horses drawn from various provinces, the front is under your command." Wei Dachuan said with a solemn face.
He has been so tired and stressed out lately that he has lost a lot of hair.
Now that the emperor has sent someone to command the battle in his place, on the surface he has to hand over the power of the army, but in fact he does not have to bear any responsibility for the defeat.
Their Chang'an Marquis Mansion did not do anything rebellious, and after the war, the Zhenbei Army still had to be under his control, and the defense of the entire north still belonged to their Chang'an Marquis Mansion.
"Then thank you Uncle Wei." Bai Wenbo was really a little surprised to see that he was willing to hand over the military power, but he still stretched out his hand and took the tiger talisman that transferred the troops.
"All the soldiers obey the order, from now on, the ministers sent by the emperor, the mighty generals will lead the battle, and anyone who disobeys the general's order will be killed." Wei Dachuan glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice.
"Yes." When the soldiers heard this, they hurriedly responded.
