Chapter 282: Why is he a million

By the time the help of the Northwest Army arrived, the defeat of the Western Chu Army had already been decided.

Seeing that there was no way to return to the sky, the commander of the Western Chu army gave up and led the remnants to flee in a hurry, which can be regarded as picking up a life.

After that,Yang Renqi and Chu Haojie, the two commanders, quickly led people to the top of the mountain。

When they saw the scene on the top of the mountain clearly, they knew what had happened to the general in the past ten days.

The elite of the 3,000 Northwest Army walked out of Ye with high spirits, but now there are only 600 people left.

And among these 600 people, all of them were wounded, and many of them saw that reinforcements were coming, and their tense nerves finally relaxed, and they also fell to the ground on the spot.

I didn't eat, I didn't drink, and I had to face a high-intensity war, even if it was an iron body, I couldn't stand it.

The Northwest sergeant who came to support hurriedly lifted his brother from the ground and then took him down for treatment.

At this time, Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang and Tao Beisheng were all covered in blood.

The three of them stood on the edge of the cliff and watched the sunset in unison.

Tao Beisheng came later, and Pu Chengshuang also came later, both of them had nothing to do, only Chu Yujia's arm was slashed, but it was fine.

"Lord Hou......"

Yang Renqi and Chu Haojie came behind Chu Yujia one after another, and then knelt down on one knee to give a salute.

Seeing that Chu Yujia's figure was slightly emaciated, the two of them also blamed themselves.

However, Chu Yujia didn't blame them, he just said: "It's not too late, it's not too early, it's just the right time......"

As soon as the words fell, Chu Yujia walked to a low-lying place.

This is a quarry pit, which is used by the Northwest sergeants to collect stones on weekdays.

But now it has become a grave for the fallen soldiers of the Northwest Army.

Looking at the familiar faces, thinking about what they looked like before they died, Chu Yujia's lips couldn't help but tremble.

In the end, he also waved his hand and sighed: "Take the brothers home, no one can be left behind." ”

Hearing this,Yang Renqi and Chu Haojie immediately took the order and left。

'Going home' is a tradition of the Northwest Army.

However, this time, the Northwest Army did not die on the battlefield of defending the country, but on the battlefield of another country.

This time, it is not the so-called return to the east, but the return of the west......

In the seventh year of Zhengyang, the beginning of spring.

With the Northwest Army breaking through the county seat of Zheyi County, the entire territory of Qianshu in Yulu Mansion was occupied by the Ye-Tang coalition army.

This war of annihilation has come to an end.

Next is the finishing work of the Northwest Army and Yu Yunjun.

In this war against Shu, the Northwest Army suffered more than 20,000 casualties and more than 16,000 casualties.

Yu Yun's army suffered more than 40,000 casualties and more than 32,000 casualties......

In this battle, the two armies paid a full price of 50,000 men.

Qianshu, which flourished for more than 400 years, was wiped out in this turmoil.

The ministers of the former Shu royal court, including all the relatives of the royal palace, were loaded into prisoner cars and escorted to the imperial city daimyo's mansion.

This battle is also a battle that changes the pattern.

Once upon a time, the Mingwu Empire was strong in the east and weak in the west, with Wu Yue in the east, Eastern Min and even most of Western Chu in the southeast.

And now, in a national war, it is inevitable that the former Shu will be divided by the two kingdoms of Ye and Tang.

Although both the Northwest Army and the Yu Yun Army had their own losses, the losses of the Second Army were simply not worth mentioning in terms of the benefits brought to their own countries by the normal national war.

Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang also received an dispatch from the imperial court at the end of January and returned to the capital.

If there were still people who thought that Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang were in vain, then after this time, no one dared to say this.

Along the way, both the imperial court officials and the local people took to the streets, standing on both sides of the street, stretching their necks to see what these two looked like.

In the past, in the Mingwu Empire, no matter which vassal state, most of the evaluations of Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang were negative.

One of the most crucial points is that the fighting style of the two is too vicious and cruel.

But in this regard, Pu Chengshuang can be stronger than Chu Yujia, after all, most of the people she slaughtered were Shanjung nationals, and she rarely participated in the civil war.

And what about Chu Yujia?

Not to mention, the first war against Shu alone slaughtered 800,000 former Shu soldiers and civilians, resulting in the displacement of more than a million people.

I don't know how much blood debt he has on his hands, what good impression can the people have of such a person?

But now, Chu Yujia was willing to die for His Majesty, personally led the army to exterminate the princes who did not obey the emperor's orders, and even personally led thousands of people to the front line to fight the enemy to the death for ten days.

How can such a person not be admired?

In short, those who hate him still hate him to the core, and those who worship him still admire him.

People's impression of Chu Yujia has always been at these two extremes.

And the fact that Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang were going back to Beijing to restore their lives had already spread in the Daimyo's Mansion.

Before entering the city, a large number of people stopped to watch on both sides of the official road.

However, to the disappointment of these people, Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang did not ride horses, but rode in the carriage, and they couldn't see him at all.

Actually, there's no way around it.

After all, Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang broke some people's plans in one fell swoop this time, so how could some people let him go?

It is said that now there are people on the rivers and lakes who clearly mark the price, offering a reward of one million taels of silver for Chu Yujia's head, and even Pu Chengshuang also eats melons, offering a reward of 500,000 taels.

In this regard, Pu Chengshuang was very dissatisfied.

Why does he Chu Yujia want one million, and he is 500,000?

What's wrong?

How can I say that he is also a general of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he is just a general of Ye Guo, in terms of official rank, he is also above him, is he half as good as him?

Why?

However, when the assassins came one after another, Pu Chengshuang had no such thoughts.

The two of them went to the Daimyo's Mansion from Qianshu, but they were only thousands of miles away, and they walked quickly in less than five days, but they encountered more than a dozen waves of assassins in these five days, an average of two times a day, and if they were in a good mood, the assassins would come three times.

Some of the Assassins were the warriors who received the bounty, while others were the Assassins trained by certain vassal states.

Of course, there are more people who simply want revenge......

After all, Chu Yujia captured Qianshu with iron and blood, and many cities were slaughtered.

Therefore, there are not a few people who have a blood feud with him.

It's okay to say in other places, after all, it's all wilderness, even if the assassins are powerful, it's nothing more than a vicious battle.

But this place is different, this is the Daimyo's mansion, and all of them are floating populations from major vassal states.

The population is complex and easy for Assassins to hide.

Qi Zhong and Zuo Jinkai, who were responsible for protecting the safety of the team, were already busy going crazy.

The elite of the Black Guard Battalion and the Northwest Army guarded the carriage on the inside and outside of the three floors, and everyone looked around vigilantly.

However, Chu Yujia and Pu Chengshuang in the carriage did not react.

Tao Beisheng sat at the front of the carriage, looked at the crowd outside the window through the gap in the curtain, and couldn't help but speak: "You two have become heroes this time, look at this, the people of the whole city have come to welcome you......"
