Chapter 231: News of Victory
Imperial Palace, Taihe Palace.
At this time, Emperor Zhu Song was still checking whether the civil and military officials had memorized Yu Hao's poems, and when the messenger presented the battle report, Zhu Song's hands were trembling excitedly.
"I really won, Shahe Pass is defended!"
The Manchu civil and military forces also widened their eyes in surprise, in their opinion, the loss of Shahe Pass was a matter of time, even if 20,000 reinforcements arrived in time, it would only be a death.
As soon as Shahe Pass broke through the four southern states, it was in the pocket of the barbarians, so some officials whose hometowns were in the south hurriedly moved their families from the south to this Wudu City.
In addition, the person who went to support was Zhu An, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty did not have any hope of holding Shahe Pass, but they didn't expect that Shahe Pass was not only defended, but Yu Hao also defeated the barbarian army!
"Good! All right! Heavy crossbows, catapults, this stinky boy has surprised me again! Zhu Song looked at the big killing weapon mentioned in the battle report, and couldn't help but applaud.
Before, Zhu Song couldn't help but sweat after learning that Yu Hao was captured by the barbarians, but it was less than a day, and the barbarians were defeated!
In the final battle, Shaheguan fought against the barbarians' more than 200,000 troops with less than 50,000 troops, and with the weapons invented by Yu Hao, the barbarians' more than 200,000 people did not even touch the city wall.
In the end, less than 80,000 barbarian soldiers survived!
More than 150,000 enemies were annihilated in World War I!
Since the establishment of the Great Qian, there has never been such a big victory, this battle is enough to go down in history, Yu Hao is enough to live through the ages!
Thinking of this, Zhu Song smiled so much that he couldn't close his mouth, Yu Hao was the horse he hand-picked, and now he has achieved such great feats, which shows that he has a vicious vision as an emperor.
Zhu Song's gaze swept over the ministers who opposed the marriage to Yu Hao at the beginning, and everyone said that Yu Hao was a gentleman who did not learn and did not know how to do it.
But Yu Hao not only made poems that have been passed down for thousands of years, but also broke the barbarians in Shaheguan, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is both civil and military.
"Yu Haoke said when he will come back?" Zhu Song looked at His Highness's messenger and asked.
At this time, he couldn't help but reward Yu Hao, couldn't help but let Yu Hao and the princess hold a wedding, he wanted to tell the whole world that Yu Hao was his Zhu Song's son-in-law!
"Back to Your Majesty, Lord Yu didn't say it, but when the villain set off, Lord Yu and King Pingnan were also preparing to return to Beijing." The messenger said truthfully.
Zhu Song nodded secretly, Yu Hao and they all have war horses, if they are faster, they should be able to return to Wudu City within a week.
"Li Mingyang!"
"The old minister is here!"
Li Mingyang stood up with a relieved face, and his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.
He and Yu Hao's father Yu Yi have been old friends for many years, and now that Yu Yi is gone, Yu Hao can be so competitive, he is really happy for Yu Yi.
"You personally lead the five hundred soldiers of the Jianguo Temple to immediately set off to the south to meet Yu Hao, and you must ensure that Yu Hao arrives at Wudu City safely!" Zhu Song commanded.
Yu Yi was killed on the way back to Beijing, and Zhu Song must not let Yu Hao follow in his father's footsteps!
"The old minister obeys!" Li Mingyang naturally had no opinion, turned around and left the Taihe Palace.
Turning his head to look at Li Mingyang's back, the eldest grandson's eyes were full of gloom.
He really couldn't understand that he had already told the barbarian queen all the situation of Shahe Pass and the reinforcements, why did the barbarians still fail to break through Shahe Pass?
Now Shahe Pass is not only defended, but also annihilated more than 100,000 enemies, such a feat is enough to make Yu Hao soar into the sky and rise to the top!
It's not impossible to even inherit the title of Duke of Yueguo, his father!
Yu Hao has already beaten him in the business world without the power to fight back, if Yu Hao can really wrestle with him in the court, then will he have a good life in the future?
The crown prince on the side also cast a puzzled look at Changsun Xiao, he knew about Changsun Xiao's report to the barbarians, in his opinion, Yu Hao and Zhu An should have died in Shahe Pass a long time ago.
But the development of things greatly exceeded his expectations, Zhu An was the main general of the reinforcements, and he made such a great contribution that it was enough to threaten his position as the crown prince.
Listening to the voices around them praising Yu Hao, the faces of the eldest grandson Xiao and the prince were very gloomy, and until they retreated, the two of them still looked like they had eaten.
"Prime Minister, didn't you repeatedly promise Prince Ben that Yu Hao and Zhu An would not come back? But now that they have not only returned, but also made such a great contribution, what do you say? As soon as he came out of the Taihe Palace, the prince couldn't help but roar.
The eldest grandson frowned, if the prince didn't have his support, he wouldn't be in this position today, but now he dares to yell at him to his face? He was very dissatisfied with the prince's attitude, and said coldly: "Your Royal Highness the prince, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the final result is not something that can be determined by the original appearance, Yu Hao and Zhu An can come back, which can only show that their lives should not be extinguished!" ”
"What a life! That's a feat! Do you know that Zhu An will have the capital to compete for the throne with Prince Ben when he comes back this time! I knew that Yu Hao, this kid was so powerful, and the prince should have gone to support Shaheguan by himself, which is good, so that Zhu An, a waste, can get cheap! The prince said angrily.
Zhu Song was originally an emperor, and his military exploits were more important than anything else.
Now that Zhu An has made immortal achievements, but he, the crown prince, has not made an inch, how can he be calm?
The eldest grandson thought for a while and said: "The prince doesn't have to worry, although Zhu An is the main general of this reinforcement, but according to the eyeliner of the prime minister in Shahe Pass, Zhu An is as timid as a mouse, and even peed his pants on the battlefield, and was finally captured by the barbarians." ”
"Yu Hao also fell into the hands of the barbarians precisely to save Zhu An."
"We can take this opportunity to hype up Zhu An in Wudu City as a cowardly and afraid of death, and he has no backbone that a royal child should have, and detain the basin that betrayed the intelligence of Shaheguan on his head, so that he can turn from a hero into a traitor that everyone shouts and beats!"
Changsun Xiao's forces are all over the world, and he knows everything that happened on the battlefield, since Zhu An has been captured by the barbarians, what does it matter if he puts the traitor's hat on his head?
"Is this true?" The prince's eyes lit up.
With Zhu Song's temper, if Zhu An really becomes a traitor, then even if he doesn't kill Zhu An, he will make Zhu An unable to turn over for the rest of his life!
The eldest grandson nodded with a smile and said, "This matter is absolutely true, even if Zhu An returns to Wudu City, he will not be able to clear his charges!" ”
"Then at this time, please ask the prime minister, you must do it properly, I will let Zhu An fall into a place of no return!"
The prince had a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely cold.
At this time, he was also a lot more relieved, as long as Zhu An could not threaten his position as the crown prince, as for Yu Hao, even if he made great contributions, he was only a courtier.
When he becomes the emperor, it won't be a matter of minutes if he wants to kill Yu Hao?
Looking at the back of the prince leaving, the eldest grandson's face was very ugly, Zhu An was solved, but what about Yu Hao?
He didn't want Yu Hao to become the second Duke of Yue to oppose him in the court!
