Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Battle Report Arrives

At this time, outside the South City Gate, two fast horses galloped over and shouted: "Great victory at the border pass, great victory at the border pass, get out of the way quickly." ”

The defender Shi Heng was overjoyed, he didn't expect the war to come to an end so quickly, and it seemed that he had won, so he hurriedly ordered to make way for the heralds.

"The border pass is a great victory, and Dongyi is defeated."

"The border pass is a great victory, and the dog Rong retreats."

The two heralds shouted loudly as they rushed towards the palace, and the people were very happy that they did not laugh.

"Dongyi and Dog Rong are clowns who jump off the beam, and they dare to provoke my Da Zhou, see it, this is the end."

A man said, looking at his resolute face, he should have been a soldier.

"What the eldest brother said is right, everyone, in order to celebrate the victory at the border pass, the small store will have a 50% discount on consumption today." The teahouse owner on the side said loudly.

The people of Luoyang celebrated with their crowns, walked on the joints, put on lanterns, changed into their best clothes and took to the streets, singing and dancing to celebrate the victory.

For a time, the entire Luoyang and even the entire Dazhou fell into a sea of joy.

At the gate of the palace, Meng Tiankui was on duty today, and suddenly heard a voice in the distance, shouting: "Great victory at the border pass." ”

"Don't leave, do you hear if anyone is shouting for a great victory at the border pass."

Xiao Beili listened carefully, and was immediately overjoyed: "General, yes, it seems that we won the border battle." ”

While speaking, the two heralds had already arrived, and they quickly dismounted, and the two were already tired and unstable.

"Your Excellency... Tell Your Majesty that Dongyi and Inu Rong have been defeated by two generals, Sun Feng and Fang Jinlong, and they have won a great victory at the border pass. With that, he fainted.

"Xiao farewell, send the two of you to the Imperial Doctor's Department, I want to tell Your Majesty this great news." After speaking, he took the good news in the hands of the herald and rushed all the way to the palace.

It has been many days since the war, and Emperor Wu is anxiously waiting for the battle situation in the imperial study, not knowing whether it is good or bad.

"Your Majesty's victory at the border, Your Majesty's victory at the border." Meng Tiankui's voice came from a distance, Emperor Wu was stunned at first, then ecstatic, and without waiting for Meng Tiankui to come in, he stepped out of the imperial study first.

Seeing Emperor Wu coming over, Meng Tiankui knelt on the ground and handed over two battle reports with both hands: "Your Majesty, the border pass is a great victory, the herald is tired to the point of coma, and the minister will forward the good news on his behalf." ”

"Hahaha, take good care of the heralds, Cao Zhengchun sent the six Shangshu and all the ministers to enter the palace immediately, I want to share this joy with them."

Emperor Wu walked to the Jinluan Hall with the good news, and at this moment Emperor Wu was in high spirits and walked with the wind.

The ministers rushed to the palace without stopping after receiving the holy decree, and everyone had a triumphant smile on their faces.

On the Jinluan Palace, Emperor Wu was full of smiles, and he was almost snotty, and the ministers were also laughing.

"It's all here, Cao Zhengchun, let's read Sun Feng's battle report first."

Emperor Wu handed the battle report to Cao Zhengchun, and after the latter took it, he read it aloud: "

In the eighth year of Tianwu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Dongyi Tuoba Han led the seventh regiment of the Flying Wing Corps to cross the border and sneak attack, and the defenders of Yecheng chose to abandon the city in order to protect the people.

On the second day, he dispatched troops to meet Dongyi. The defender Chonglou eliminated the enemy's supply team, and cooperated with Yu Heng to recover Yecheng, killed the Dongyi general Tuoba Jue, and captured the enemy general Leng Qianshan with 3,000 enemy troops.

Chen and Tuoba Han encountered, and General Rhodes took the lead and defeated Dongyi's 20,000 army with 10,000 cavalry.

At night, the minister took advantage of the heavy rain to sneak attack Tuoba Han's camp, killing more than 30,000 enemy troops, and Tuoba Han led the remnants to flee back to Dongyi.

In order to prevent Western Qin from taking advantage of the chaos and robbery, the ministers collected their troops and returned to Yumen Pass.

In this battle, more than 30,000 enemy soldiers were killed, 4,000 prisoners were captured, and our army suffered more than 20,000 casualties.

This great victory, thanks to the trust of His Majesty, all the soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, and the border was worry-free for three years after this battle.

The minister reported again that Lord Xie An had returned to Dazhou safely and would arrive in Luoyang in a few days. ”

Emperor Wu's face turned into a flower, not only defeated Dongyi, but even Xie An was safe.

"Your Majesty, General Sun's defeat of Dongyi this time is indispensable, and the border soldiers should also be rewarded." Yu Ming, the secretary of the military department, was very excited.

"Well, I won't treat the soldiers badly, so let's continue to read the Inurong battle report." Emperor Wu said with a smile.

Cao Zhengchun continued to read: "The minister Fang Jinlong faced Luoyang and knelt down for a hundred bows.

In the eighth year of the Great Zhou Tianwu, the dog Rong Rongtiantuo crossed the border, intending to offend my Great Zhou.

The general Yang Ruihe led the mountain people to fight a bloody battle with the enemy's wolf cavalry and rattan armor soldiers, and successfully lured the enemy deep into the Eagle Stream after paying huge casualties

After the enemy's strategy of shooting oil sticky fire attack hit the enemy army hard, he flooded thousands of troops and killed the enemy generals Zhang Zhong, Jiang Kai, and Blue Wolf.

In accordance with His Majesty's will, after the victory, he discussed a trade plan with the inujung, and after the enemy general agreed, Lord Lu Heng went to the inurong again and returned in a few days. ”

Emperor Wu laughed heartily, the instability of the border has always been his biggest heart disease, now it is good, the border will be worry-free within three years after this station.

"Congratulations to my father, it all depends on my father's Shengming, and he is happy to be a good general, and the Great Zhou is solid from now on, and Dog Rong Dongyi is just a clown who jumps off the beam." Zhao Zilin took the opportunity to send a rainbow fart.

"Alas, the eldest brother's words are wrong, of course the father is extremely sage, but without all the soldiers fighting bravely to kill the enemy, how can you and I stand here. The father and son of the emperor asked for a heavy reward for the three armies. Zhao Ziyan said.

"What the second prince said is very true, Weichen thinks that the two generals must be rewarded, and Lord Xie An must also be rewarded, if it weren't for him recommending the two, I'm afraid this battle wouldn't be so smooth."

Nangong Liuyun said that the emperor was already worried about Xie An, but if he can come back alive this time, Xie An's status will definitely improve, so it is better to be a favor.

"Well, what Nangong Qing's family said is reasonable, when Xie An returns to Luoyang, I will definitely reward him heavily." Emperor Wu suddenly felt a trace of melancholy.

This victory was all in accordance with Xie An's strategy, but the real hero was Zhao Zili, who was still in a coma.

But this is not the time to show it.

"Tell the Word:

The national tax reduction and exemption is three percent a year with the rest of the people,

All prisoners serving sentences of less than three years were released,

Officials across the country are on a three-day holiday.

The bereavement pension of the families of the deceased soldiers was doubled.

As for the rewards for the soldiers of the three armies, I must think carefully and never treat everyone badly. ”

Emperor Wu's reward is not small, which shows how happy he is with this big victory.

"Your Majesty, long live my emperor."

Emperor Wu nodded, looked at Cao Zhengchun, who was signaled, cleared his throat and said, "Retreat." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty."

After Emperor Wu left the Jinluan Palace, he saw that there was no one else, and said in a low voice: "Cao Zhengchun, you Imperial Doctor Department will find Li Shizhen and go to the Song Palace." ”

Cao Zhengchun was stunned for a moment, seeing that the emperor still attached great importance to this seventh prince.

"Yes." He turned around and went to the Imperial Doctor's Office.

"Hey, if this old seventh body is not like this, it is indeed the best candidate for the prince, but it's a pity."

Emperor Wu shook his head and walked towards the Empress's palace.

The news of the victory on the border swept the world, and the subjects of the Great Zhou were all overjoyed, and they organized various celebrations to celebrate the hard-won victory.

Especially after knowing the holy decree reward of Emperor Wu, the people were moved to tears, and thirty percent of the taxes were enough to feed the family.

Those who were released for their crimes were also grateful to the emperor for his kindness and swore that they would abide by the law in the future.

There are also many families who are in grief and whose fathers, sons, or brothers have died in battles on the border.

No amount of pension can buy back their lives, but fortunately, without official embezzlement pensions, their descendants will be fully protected.

This is also the reason why Da Zhou has been prosperous.

That night, Xie An returned to Luoyang, looking at the high city wall, he seemed to be a world away, and he still came back after nine deaths.

"The gates are closed, and we will enter the city again tomorrow." The defenders saw Xie An's chariots and horses approaching the city and immediately stopped them.

"Old man Xie An, please report to Your Majesty."

"What, Lord Xie, open the door quickly, Your Majesty has a will, you must open the door to Lord Xie at any time." Shi Heng hurriedly ordered the door to be opened.

"Thank you, General." Xie An entered the city gate and suddenly asked again, "Does the general know how His Royal Highness King Song is doing recently?" ”

Shi Heng was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I don't know, but I heard that King Song suddenly fainted when the border battle just started, and he hasn't woken up yet." ”

Xie An chuckled in his heart when he heard this, he was afraid that the toxin had attacked.

"Thank you, General, the old man will see Your Majesty in the palace tomorrow." Soon Xie An returned home.

Xie An's safe arrival home, the house was about to fry, and everyone was very happy, especially Xie An's daughter Xie Qingcheng.

"Father, it's great that you're okay." Hearing that Xie An was missing, Xie Qingcheng was extremely sad with tears all day long.

"Don't cry, isn't my father back?" wiped her daughter's tears, and Xie An was also moved.

A small figure walked out from behind him and asked, "Uncle, is this your house?" It's so big, so beautiful. ”

It's the first time the puppy has seen such a beautiful house, and he used to live in a pig's nest.

Originally, Xie An wanted to recognize him as his son, but the little guy refused to insist on calling him uncle, and Xie An had no choice but to follow him.

"Daddy, who is this little kid?" Xie Tingcheng looked at the little dog, why did his father bring a little boy back.

"This is my father's life-saving benefactor, if it weren't for his father's life for life, my father would have died a long time ago."

When he told his daughter, he was about to tell his daughter.

Xie Chengcheng burst into tears after hearing this, he couldn't imagine that there was such a loyal and brave person.

"Dad, it's better to change his name, it's still a little indecent to enter the palace tomorrow and keep calling him a puppy." Xie Qingcheng wiped his eyes and stopped crying.

Xie An was silent and said, "Little dog, do you want to change your name?" ”

"Uncle, I also know that dogs are not good, I want to meet that person, let my father protect your person, let him change it for me, this is what my father said."

Xie An's body trembled, and said, "Okay, but the person is sick, tomorrow my uncle will go to see him and take you with me." ”

The dog nodded, not knowing what was going on in his little head.

The night passed, and at dawn, Emperor Wu had received the news of Xie An's return, and he was very happy.

Although the war ended, the aftermath of the war was not small, and there were rewards for war achievements, and the post-war treatment of Dongyi and Inurong, many problems have not yet been resolved.

This dynasty meeting is destined to be extraordinary.
