Because of the early preparations, after receiving the holy decree, it took only five days for Min Bai to gather a large number of military supplies and rush to the border of Qingguo.

There, he met with Shangguan Ling and Gu Zan who came from afar.

The 3,000 soldiers brought by Gu Zan from Daizhou all wore white scarves on their arms to wear filial piety for Gu Yan and the 1,000 comrades who died innocently in vain.

Everyone was full of grief and indignation, not only against the enemy army, but also against those princes and nobles.

So before leaving, I didn't need to be instructed, I just did something.

They smashed all the large and small mines excavated by the magnates in Daizhou, and all the stewards were expelled from Daizhou.

Not a single charcoal stone, not a single grass is allowed to be taken away.

Even if the news reached the capital, no powerful person dared to speak up.

On the contrary, after hearing that the emperor ordered Min Bai to come in person and brought Shang Fang's sword, the princes and nobles who stayed on the front line of Qingguo fled en masse.

Some people who have clear brains and bottom lines flee to the poor countryside, just trying to survive.

But led by Xiao Dan, there is still a group of people who fled to Uncle Qing. said that he could fund money to help him seize the throne and end the war in Gyeong.

They also hope to be able to make meritorious contributions and regain glory and wealth.

But such a blood feud has been formed, how to reconcile?

Uncle Qing decisively swung his knife, killed Xiao Dan on the spot, and gave all the heads of his entourage to Min Bai.

He also asked someone to bring a message, saying that the two sides were fighting because they had their own needs.

He killed General Yan and exhausted Gu Yan to death, it was a battle between the two armies, you live or die, there is nothing to say.

But like Xiao Dan, who received the emperor's favor but abandoned the enemy and surrendered, even he looked down upon.

Only now, he has reached the point of exhaustion. Can you have a skirmish with Min Bai for the sake of the lives of innocent soldiers?

That is, both sides only bring ten people and fight in a limited area.

Within three days, if he loses, he will lead people to surrender.

But if he wins by luck, he wants to ask Dayan to be the master, divide Qingguo into two, and divide the land with his royal nephew.

No one thinks such a request is necessary.

His Royal Highness the King of Han is so valuable, why should he compete fairly with an uncle of King Qing who has reached the end of his rope?

It's okay to win, but if you lose, wouldn't it be a shame?

His Royal Highness the King of Kehan agreed.

He said, "There are enough people who have died, and if one less dies, there will be more parents who wait for the return of their sons, women who wait for the return of their husbands, and children who wait for the return of their fathers." Let Uncle Qing prepare to pick someone, let's start one day earlier and end one day earlier. ”

Gu Zan took the initiative to ask for battle, but Min Bai did not agree.

"If you want to win, you must win his heart, and there will be fewer branches."

Shangguan Ling admired it and took the initiative to toast the disciple with a glass of wine, "Then as a teacher, I wish you a speedy victory!" ”

Then His Highness decreed that all only sons, who have parents over the age of 60 and young sons under the age of 10, should all retire.

But there are 3,000 soldiers, and none of them back down.

With tears in his eyes, his voice vibrated the mountains and rivers, "How can you say that you have no clothes, and you have the same enmity with your son!" How can you say that you have no clothes, and walk with your son! ”

Seeing this, Uncle Qing on the opposite side suddenly sighed, "I may, I have already lost." ”

The subordinates said, "The king doesn't have to be like this, His Royal Highness the King of Han is still young and pampered, so we may not lose." ”

"You don't understand." Uncle Qing smiled bitterly and didn't explain. Only ten strong men were ordered, and they came out to meet the battle with three days' worth of food.

On Min Bai's side, he only ordered a team of ten soldiers to summon casually.

and said that if Uncle King Qing can save his life without hurting his soldiers, he will not hurt Uncle King Qing.

Uncle Qing agreed to come down.

The competition of twenty-two people began.

Three days and nights, one mountain, and Min Bai, who was unfamiliar with the place, captured Uncle Qing four times.

The first three times, King Qing's uncle was not convinced, so Min Bai let him come again.

The last time, Uncle Qing was forced to break his promise, and even the avalanche's big move was sacrificed, but he still lost.

At this point, he was finally convinced.

In the end, in the tears of the clansmen, they were caught.

Uncle Qing smiled, "Don't cry, it's my glory to lose in the hands of a hero like His Royal Highness the King of Han." By the way, Your Highness, do you know my first name? ”

Min Bai nodded, "Qingguoguo's surname is white, and the emperor's uncle's name is a Han character." But your ancestors were originally compound surnames, which originally meant a lot of wealth. He is also named Han, probably because he hopes that you have both the talent of Hanlin and the meaning of having both talent and wealth. ”

Bai Han praised, "It is worthy of being Mr. Shangguan's high apprentice, His Royal Highness has seen and heard a lot, and I really admire it." I just hate that I can't get to know His Highness early, otherwise I will definitely be introduced as a confidant and friend, so that I can be close. Although the king has admitted defeat, he does not want to be taken prisoner, and even suffer the humiliation of such children. ”

He suddenly raised a golden knife and dagger across his neck, "Listen, people! Today, the king died here, but he took the blame for his own success, and there is nothing to say about the king's defeat. You don't have to avenge your king, and you don't have to go against the new one. Although this king does not accept him, he is probably really destined to return to heaven and can get the help of nobles. From now on, you will live and find a way to live! ”

After speaking, he killed himself with a knife and died neatly.

Although it is the end of a hero, it is also a masterpiece of a generation.

Compared with it, the little emperor of Qingguo is not enough to see.

When he heard that Uncle Wang was dead, his first reaction was to be ecstatic and laugh.

Then he gritted his teeth and viciously ordered that Uncle Wang's family and those who followed him should all be executed.

Min Bai didn't speak.

Although the little emperor is only twelve, as a child of the royal family, he can no longer be said to be ignorant. It is not a blessing for the people to be so cold.

However, the official surnamed Hong, who had written a good article before and moved Emperor Yan Cheng and the courtiers of Dayan, hurriedly stopped him.

How many people does Qingguo have, and how many people have been killed and wounded after almost a year of fighting?

If you continue to kill, there will be no one in the entire Qingguo, who will pay the taxes and defend the royal land?

Even if you want to kill, you can't rush it. It colds the hearts of the courtiers and the people, leaving a curse.

To put it mildly, it finally dispelled the killing intent of the little emperor.

Lord Hong cautiously inquired again, what does His Royal Highness King Han want?

This is also the norm.

People came all the way over, sacrificed so much, and helped them win the throne, they can't let people go home empty-handed, right?

But to the surprise of the monarchs and ministers of Qingguo, His Royal Highness the King of Han did not want their treasures and beauties, nor did he want their mineral resources, or the convenience of doing business in the future.

He only pointed to the border of Qingguo's map, a deserted island in the sea, "This Wang family has always loved to eat, if Qingjun is willing, can you give this island away?" This king also has a place to catch some seafood. ”

Isn't this too low?

That Lord Hong is really a smart person, and after carefully looking at the map, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, and suddenly understood the deep meaning of Min Bai.

Although that small island is inconspicuous, if you build a dock garrison on it, it is equivalent to holding a dagger that can stab into the hinterland of Qingguo at any time.

If the two countries fight each other in the future, Dayan will transfer troops from this island, and the country will be in danger!

Keqing Xiaoguojun only felt that although His Royal Highness the King of Han was good-looking, he was really stupid. Today, if he asks him to pay tribute to seafood every year, won't he have to do the same? Why bother to have a desert island and salvage it yourself? If he is to be burdened, give it to him.

So he said briskly, "Then this island is given to the King of Han!" ”

No jokes.

Lord Hong has a word of suffering.

And Min Baifeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and the matter was settled.
