Chapter 169: Special Envoy of the Imperial Capital
"I am a sinner in my family!"
When Su Ya said this, her face was already miserable, her face was extremely pale, and there was a deep sadness in her tone:
"If I had chosen to send troops instead of retreating to Moxi Pass, the land outside the pass would never have fallen so quickly, and hundreds of thousands of Moxi residents would not have been displaced! All of this was because of my selfishness and my cowardice! I, I am not worthy of being a descendant of the Ellios family, and I am even more ashamed of the military and people ......of Moxi."
Qiao Se didn't speak, he looked at Su Ya's miserable expression, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Although the main force of the Northwest Army was preserved by guarding Moxi Pass, it did cause a great disaster to the residents in the corridor of the river valley outside the pass. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info just looked at Su Ya's appearance, but Qiao Se only felt that there seemed to be something blocked in his heart.
"That's not the case!" Joseph took a deep breath and said in a very calm tone: "Even if you don't garrison the pass, the Macedonians will still invade Moxi, and even if you repel the Macedonians, there will still be tens of thousands of soldiers killed and wounded!
Su Ya smiled bitterly when she heard him say this, but her expression still didn't change much. When Jose saw her like this, he knew in his heart that Su Ya was because there was too much pressure from the war, and her decision affected the entire residents outside the Guanwai, and it was difficult to let go for a while before she fell into deep self-blame.
Jose figured this out, stared at Su Ya, but gritted his teeth and said, "Su Ya, wake up! Now it's not the contradiction between your Ellios family and that emperor, it's the problem of the entire Moxi and the empire!"
Think about it, don't you avoid the war, fight to the death with the Macedonians, and finally exhaust the military strength of the northwest, so that no one will die? If the empire has the intention to take back the military power of Moxi, it will naturally take action against Moxi, and then it will not be a problem inside and outside the Guan!
Moxi was originally an important place in the western frontier of the empire, but it was far away from the hinterland of the empire, and even the nearest province of Turan had hundreds of miles of the vast Tadam Desert. If the grassland people take advantage of the situation to make trouble, then the Wumo Western Army will resist foreign enemies, and I am afraid that the disaster will be even greater than now!
What you need to do now is not to regret or blame yourself, but to plan for the next step. You remember, you are a leader, and there are countless people and responsibilities in your family fiefdom, if you can't even stand this blow, I'm afraid that you won't have to be attacked by others, and you will be forced to collapse by yourself!"
Jose was ruthless, so he simply stopped looking at her, but turned around and walked out of the study, but quietly hid behind the door to observe Su Ya's reaction.
Finally, Su Ya was silent for a long time before slowly wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, taking a deep breath, and her eyes returned to her former calmness: "Jose, what you said is right, I really thought extreme just now...... You don't have to hide there on purpose, I'm fine. ”
José was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered that Su Ya, who was also a magician, could naturally detect his actions. He thought for a while, he could only smile bitterly, and was about to turn around and leave, but he heard Su Ya whisper behind him: "Thank you, ...... Jose"
Jose's heart moved, and he couldn't help but turn around, but found that Su Ya had already turned his back, and said lightly: "Tomorrow evening, the envoy of the imperial capital will arrive." Your achievements are the greatest, presumably His Majesty the Emperor's commendation order has also come down, you can go with me tomorrow!"
José listened to her calm tone, but it was not at all complicated as before, although his heart was relieved, but he didn't say anything more, just nodded, and turned to leave.
After Su Ya confirmed that Jose was leaving, the indifferent look on her face faded. The girl's beautiful eyes showed a little sadness, and when she looked at the direction in which Jose had left, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in a low, almost inaudible tone:
"If it is impossible to know, why bother with affection......
............
In the evening of the next day, a group of envoys sent from the imperial capital came to Valun, the capital of Moxi.
Originally, Su Ya and others had been staying in the Sadrand garrison because of the war. After all, compared with the situation outside the Guan, the administrative role of Valen City in Moxi Pass is far greater than the military significance, and Sadrand, as the first important town outside the Guan, is naturally the focus of Suya's post-war reconstruction.
However, after learning of His Majesty's order from the Emperor, Su Ya and a group of generals of the Northwest Army returned to Valen City a few days in advance. The envoy of the imperial capital will arrive that night, and as the current acting commander of the Moxi Army, Su Ya will naturally not slack off.
According to the originally planned route, Su Ya and several major generals in the Northwest Army went out of the city in advance to greet her, and José, who was nominally Su Ya's magician advisor, was naturally among the group. In fact, since Joseph met Suya, on some important occasions, he basically asked Joseph to accompany him.
At dusk, the procession that was in charge of going out of the city to meet them appeared at the foot of the city gate, led by Perry with two hundred cavalry of the Central Army, followed by a long procession. At the front was a richly decorated carriage, followed by a dozen carts and various servant guards, and the whole procession numbered about two or three hundred people, which looked quite imposing.
"Stop! Valen City has arrived!" Perry had already seen Su Ya and his party under the city in front of him, and immediately shouted loudly, and the two hundred cavalry behind him immediately dispersed in a specific formation.
The whole team slowly stopped, and Joseph, who was standing on the side, realized that the carriage at the front was quite conspicuous: the general carriage was pulled by a single or double horse, and the nobles who were a little more particular about it used four horses to travel. And this carriage looks far more than twice as large as an ordinary carriage from the outside, and the front is pulled by six war horses at the same time!
That's right, not ordinary horses, the six horses pulling the cart are undoubtedly war horses in the army. Jose has also been in Moxi for more than a month, and he can roughly see the quality of this kind of horse. This kind of high-quality war horse is generally used to equip the cavalry, and even in the army, it is afraid that only the commander such as the battalion officer can ride, but now it is only used to pull the cart.
The carriage was also very delicately decorated, and the body looked to be made of hardwood, with a fine layer of paint. The whole body is carved with a variety of gorgeous and delicate patterns, and a row of tassels of fine colors hangs on the roof, and the whole carriage looks magnificent and luxurious.
José squinted his eyes and looked at this luxurious carriage with some interest, and couldn't help but think in his heart: What kind of carriage is this, it is simply a luxury RV at this time! What kind of imperial envoy is this, it seems that the pomp and circumstance are not small!
There were more than a dozen cavalry on the side of the carriage, and at first glance there were some elite guards with considerable quality, presumably the one sitting in the carriage should be the envoy from the imperial capital! )
