Chapter 5: Goodbye King Yizhou (3)
This sounded like a compliment, but Chang Bai quickly arched his hand and said: "It took a month for the ministers to fail to capture the East Dome Pass, and they also bothered the king to rush here in person, which is a dereliction of duty! ”
The other generals understood when they heard this, and it turned out that these words were not praise, but implied reproach, and they hurriedly showed panicked expressions.
Fang Ling smiled secretly when he saw it, it was worthy of Fang Zong's arrogance, this politics was played very well, and it also showed that Chang Bai was proficient in politics and could react so quickly, if this person was not removed, he was afraid that he would also become his fierce rival.
Fang Zongao waved his hand lightly and said: "Forget it, if this king condemns you all, then who will capture the East Dome Pass for this king? But if you want to be defeated like the war in the north, don't keep your heads!"
Everyone shuddered when they heard this, and as soon as they stood up, they immediately bowed down and said, "The ministers are willing to share the worries of the king, and they will definitely capture the East Dome Pass!"
Fang Zongao smiled faintly and said: "Get up, this king is here in person this time, just for the war in Dongqiongguan, and not only this king is here, but the king of Dongzhou and the king of Anxi will also come here." ”
Everyone couldn't help but be taken aback, and at the same time cheered up, after all, the king of Youzhou was in charge, and the morale was naturally needless to say, and the heart was solid enough.
Chang Bai said with a smile: "The king's wisdom is like heaven, coupled with the assistance of the king of Dongzhou and the king of Anxi, he will definitely be able to solve this month's protracted battle, as long as the East Dome Pass is broken, the imperial city will be within reach!"
The generals hurriedly said: "With the king in charge here, our army will definitely be greatly boosted, and we will definitely be able to capture the East Dome Pass!"
Fang Ling couldn't help but smile when he heard this, Fang Zongao did have a bit of talent, and a few words boosted everyone's morale, but he didn't find that the enemy was standing in front of him, if he really found himself, he didn't know what kind of anger he would become.
Fang Zongao said to Chang Bai at this time: "This king will live in the mansion from today onwards, and the 10,000 horses I brought are stationed ten miles outside the city. ”
Chang Bai nodded hurriedly, and Fang Zongao said again: "The king of Dongzhou and the king of Anxi should have sent a secret letter over, right?"
Chang Bai replied: "Your Majesty, the King of Dongzhou and the King of Anxi County will arrive tomorrow afternoon, and their two roads have been united, with a total of 30,000 horses. ”
"30,000 horses, hmph, they are really enough to be wary of this king!" Fang Zong snorted arrogantly.
When Fang Ling heard this, he frowned slightly, although he had expected that the Three Kings would bring people and horses, but he didn't expect that there would be a total of 40,000 horses, so if Huang Longhu only dispatched forty percent of his troops, even if he added his own 50,000 horses, it would be a bit insufficient.
Just pondering, the wine and food had already come up, Fang Zongao raised his glass and said: "Although the East Dome Pass has not been captured, I still have to reward you for your hard work." ”
The generals hurriedly raised their glasses, and just as Fang Zong's eyes suddenly lit up when Fang Zong raised his head and drank the contents of the cup, he found that there was a gray patch under the root of his ear.
With Fang Ling's eyesight, this thumb-sized patch seemed to be in front of him, Fang Ling took a closer look, and immediately recognized that this was a birthmark, as soon as he understood this, Fang Ling was suddenly shocked, and once again looked at this man who claimed to be the king of Yizhou.
