Chapter 48: Return the Locusts to the Field
Seeing Xia Yan vomiting blood, several people below showed doubts on their faces.
", what are you doing, Your Majesty?"
"Hey, it looks like it's been too much pressure in the past few days, and now it's been released."
"So, do you need to be called an imperial doctor like this?"
"Well, otherwise, let's see the situation first."
Poof-
After a while, Xia Yan forcibly calmed himself, and the blood in his mouth stopped gushing at this moment.
Taking a deep breath, he said to Xing Daorong below: "General Xing, since you have come back, what about Xiguo?" ……”
"Your Majesty will see the outside world if you talk about Xiguo, the current Xiguo is Your Majesty's territory, and it should be called Hucheng now!"
"Yes, yes, yes...... Lake City, so what about Lake City? ……”
"Someone is guarding the town, and I have asked Xu Shangshu to send some people to hand it over, and at the same time, I will also bring back all the 100,000 captives of the Yuan Xi Kingdom, and at the same time, I will also bring back the Lord of the Yuan Xi Kingdom!" Listening to Xing Daorong's words, Xia Yan smiled bitterly.
"Since everyone has brought it, let me see it."
Soon after, the former lord of the Xi Kingdom was taken into the main hall by the Five Flowers Bundle.
"Shangguan Qingyang has seen the Great Xia Lord."
Now that he is a prisoner, the lord of Xi Country has no longer the spirit he used to have, his hair is scattered, and his eyes look a little godless.
It was precisely because of this that Xia Yanfang knew his real name.
Shangguan Qingyang, no one has called him that for many years, as the lord of the Xi Kingdom, he has always been a strong man in the surrounding countries.
If it weren't for being in the Great Xia Palace now, Shangguan Qingyang would never have thought that he would be defeated by Great Xia one day.
But it's useless to say anything at the moment, his life and death are just between Xia Yan's thoughts.
Xia Yan said silently: "Brother Shangguan, it's been hard all the way. ”
“……。”
Xia Yan's words made Shangguan Qingyang unable to answer for a while, what kind of operation is this?
Seeing Shangguan Qingyang like this, Xia Yan didn't care, but said to the lower side with a little reproach: "Brother Shangguan is also a generation of powerful country lords, how can you be so wronged by others, hurry up and loosen the ties, and serve with good food and drink in the days to come!" ”
A group of old men were momentarily confused, but after all, it was Xia Yan who said that they couldn't help but respond, so Xu Jing stepped forward and said: "I know, I know, we didn't take care of it." ”
Then he immediately drank people to loosen Shangguan Qingyang's ties, and intimately handed over a Huazi.
At first, Shangguan Qingyang was a little suspicious of what this thing was, but when he saw that several old men had one in their hands, they also tried it.
As soon as I tasted it, I was instantly refreshed, "Good thing!" ”
Seeing this, Xia Yan smiled slightly and began to chat with him.
"Brother Shangguan, can you tell me how our General Xing defeated you?"
In his heart, Xia Yan still couldn't believe what Xing Daorong said.
If those deeds just now had been done by Huo Quai, he might have been shocked, but he wouldn't have believed it.
But what I said just now was what Xing Daorong said.
He knew what kind of treasure Xing Daorong was, so he also decided to ask Shangguan Qingyang well.
As the saying goes, it's not terrible to fail, but the most terrible thing is not knowing how to fail.
Today's Xia Yan is like this, even if he dies, he has to let me die to understand!
Originally, it should have been a very shameful thing to ask a failed emperor to tell how he was defeated.
But Shangguan Qingyang, who was below, also felt that he didn't seem to be so ashamed after passing through the sugar-coated cannonball just now, so he slowly spoke.
"Originally...... I'm doing well in the palace, it stands to reason that I have 30,000 city defense troops, 8,000 forbidden troops, and thousands of inner temple guards, and ordinary forces can't attack the city at all, but ......"
Shangguan Qingyang was also honest, and told what he knew without a trace of concealment.
"So that's the situation, and I don't know why everyone was gone in the end, and they all ran to my son-in-law."
Seeing Shangguan Qingyang say this, Xia Yan's brows furrowed slightly.
Isn't it that he hasn't figured out the real reason yet, and if not, he has to ask his son-in-law.
So, at Xia Yan's suggestion, Qi Xian was also brought into the hall.
Like Shangguan Qingyang, Xia Yan didn't have any intention of blaming him, he just asked him to tell everything to himself.
But who would have thought that Qi Xian, who had already made up his mind to give Xing Daorong a big gift, still insisted that it was Xing Daorong who was extremely brave and made a mess of his side.
This made Xia Yan a little speechless, could it be that he really suspected that he was wrong?
There is no internal response, there is no emergency, it's just that Xing Daorong is really brave?
Thinking of this, Xia Yan didn't say anything more, but forced himself to be smooth in his heart.
"I know, let's take it all down and entertain it."
In the end, Xia Yan didn't ask about gunpowder.
Naturally, they didn't know that another Uncle Feng Xiao, who had already reached the territory of the Candle Country, was holding another 800 catties of gunpowder in his hand.
And at this moment, Xing Daorong also spoke, it was the things that Yu Guo had captured the soldiers before.
As a general rule, if a country is occupied, the captives of that country cannot be returned under any circumstances.
The reason is also very simple, this group of people are all people who have fought on the battlefield, and it will be a hidden danger if the tiger returns to the mountain.
Not to mention, an army of 30,000 men.
If these people go back, they organize an organization similar to "anti-Xia Fuyu" by themselves, which will definitely be a big trouble for Xia Yan.
All the old men understand this, and Xia Yan also understands it in his heart.
So several old men immediately spoke out against it, thinking that this move was simply a return to the mountain.
This group of people will either stay to be cannon fodder when attacking other countries, or they will be pulled to work as coolies, and they can't go back in short.
But Xia Yan knew in his heart, but he didn't bother to care so much.
This kind of hidden danger is something to yourself, and you will decide immediately.
"Since you promised them, let them go."
Hearing this, a group of old men were dumbfounded.
"What?!"
"No, Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable, this TM is going to die in the country!"
"That's it, let 30,000 hidden dangers go back, people are letting the tiger return to the mountain, you are letting the locusts go back to the field!"
A group of uncles all changed their faces at the moment, and the joy just now disappeared without a trace.
If it was in the past, Xia Yan would have wanted to have another war of words with this group of masters.
But today, he has been exhausted by Xing Daorong, and he really doesn't want to say anything more.
When he was annoyed, he saw Xing Daorong who was smoking Huazi below, and suddenly had a plan.
"Ladies and gentlemen, didn't you say that General Xing was your idol for life. Don't forget, this is your idol. ”
"Huh...... It seems to be true......
"Yes, I almost forgot, this was proposed by our Great Xia God of War."
"If it was proposed by General Xing, then there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it?"
"It seems to make sense, did we misunderstand Your Majesty again?"
"It makes sense, Your Majesty and General Xing are in the atmosphere, and we are only waiting for the first layer."
"Well, it must be ......"
