The country sends a daughter-in-law? Come and take a dozen, take them all

Chapter 185

The dawn light shines on the mottled bluestone. Soldiers stand like sculptures between the battlements, with pieces of silver armor shining like scales. The two-meter-long black spears are intimidating.

This is the capital of Daqian Kingdom, a giant beast over ten meters high.

A white shadow flew from the horizon. As it got closer, everyone saw clearly that it was a white horse.

Immediately sat a lightly-armed soldier with a jade sword on his waist and two red flags with the word "urgent" written on them behind his back.

With the appearance of this person, the gate to the capital slowly opened.

In this way, the white horse cavalry entered the capital without any hindrance.

When many people who got up early saw the red flag and white horse, they all gave way and kept staring at where he was going. It wasn't until he couldn't even see his shadow that he came back to his senses.

"Is this a border battle report?"

"Is there another war on the border?"

The two old men walking around looked confused. This red flag messenger is the highest level. As soon as he appears, you must make way for him, even if you are a relative of the emperor.

Generally, red flag messengers will come only when all the borders of a county have been captured, or when a great victory is achieved.

"You are really ill-informed."

A chubby middle-aged man appeared out of nowhere. He had thumb rings on his ten fingers, each with a shining gemstone printed on it. On the belt tied around the waist, there is a large jade pendant in the middle.

The man chuckled, showing his big yellow teeth, and lightly fanned himself, but felt a little cold and quickly put it away.

"Liu Dacai, you are well-informed, so please tell me quickly!"

"Don't worry, listen to me carefully."

Although Liu Dacai is a rich man with a huge fortune, he has no airs. Even if he is scolded, he will not get angry.

"More than ten days ago, the Daliang Kingdom and the Dachang Kingdom gathered [-] troops and troops arrived at Qingzhou City."

"Ah? Two hundred thousand troops! How many people are there in the Qingzhou Army?"

The uncle’s face changed. You know, the capital city only has [-] elite soldiers.

"More than thirty thousand people."

"Ah? Doesn't that mean we're going to lose the defense?"

"Haha, what are you afraid of? With General Jianfeng here, what can an army of two hundred thousand do?"

Before you knew it, a lot of people had gathered here. One of the fanatic fans of Jianfeng spoke.

"You are stupid. General Jianfeng was in the capital at the time. By the time he got the news and rushed back, Qingzhou would have been lost."

"Ah? Then this battle report is not a report of defeat?"

"It seems so."

The horse whip in the hand of the messenger whipped wildly, and the war horse roared loudly and rushed towards the palace quickly. Everyone passing by gave way in panic, but no one dared to complain.

It wasn't until the gate of the palace that the messenger suddenly clamped the horse's belly and pulled back the reins, and the horse stopped.

The guard at the entrance of the palace did not dare to slack off at all. He took off his jade sword, checked his body, and let him enter the palace.

At this time, the Daming Palace was already noisy. As for the reason, we have to start from the beginning of the morning.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat."

"Reporting to the Emperor, news came from Qingzhou County. Qingzhou lost six cities in a row, and Fangcheng was almost lost. At the critical moment, General Jianfeng arrived, repulsed the enemy army, beheaded an enemy general, and led his team to kill ten thousand enemies. .”

An official in charge came out to report.

As soon as these words came out, all the officials of the Jian family and the Zhao family showed joy. As for the officials of the Chen family and Zhang family, their faces looked a bit ugly.

Jianfeng actually arrived in time and defended Fangcheng.

Before the arrival of Jianfeng, Fangcheng had always been a dangerous barrier for Daqian Kingdom and the last barrier in Qingzhou. Decades of construction have brought its defense to an unprecedented level.

It can be said that the only way to break through Fangcheng is to forcefully break the city gate.

Do you want to attack from the city wall? The wall of Fangcheng is eight meters high and it is difficult to climb up. Even if a few people go up, they will be quickly eliminated.

No matter how much losses the Qingzhou army suffered, the Liang army could never capture the city.

The six lost cities were all captured by Jianfeng's army after arriving in Qingzhou.

Now that Fang Cheng is under guard by Jian Feng, there's no telling if he can really hold on until reinforcements arrive.

By that time, not only was Jianfeng innocent, but he had made a great contribution.

For a time, the ministers below were all talking about it. Some were happy, some were sad, and some looked like it had nothing to do with them.

The person sitting on the dragon chair also looked happy and looked at Jian Chen below.

This Jianchen, two days ago, he was talking about how difficult it was to defend Qingzhou, but now he was slapped in the face, right?

"Well, he is worthy of being a general of my Daqian Kingdom. Even if he faces [-] enemy troops, he can easily defeat them. Jian Chen, do you see that all your worries are unnecessary."

At this time, Jian Chen could not hide the excitement in his eyes. Even if he was reprimanded, he did not get angry. Instead, he bowed respectfully:

"The old minister is short-sighted. That's what His Majesty said."

Emperor Daqian was very satisfied when he saw the latter's submission. Then he waved his hand and said:

"Drawing up the decree, General Jianfeng will lead his troops, kill one enemy general, kill ten thousand enemies, and reward him with a thousand taels of gold and hundreds of miles of fertile land."

When Jian Chen saw this, he also hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Chen Menghuai saw this, he shouted that something was wrong and hurriedly started talking to Zhang Menghuai and others on the side.

Not long after, he suddenly took a step forward and stood up.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

In an instant, the quarrels in the court stopped abruptly.

Everyone knows that the Jian family and the Chen family are not dealing with each other. Now they want to see what Chen Menghuai wants to say.

When Jian Chen saw Chen Menghuai standing up, he said something was wrong.

Although I don't know what Chen Menghuai is going to do, it is definitely not a good thing.

"What's the matter with you?"

Emperor Daqian raised his eyebrows, also curious.

You know, Chen Menghuai never takes the initiative to stand up.

"Your Majesty, the Great Jade Kingdom in the southeast has not launched a war for a long time. In the past two years, they have had good weather, with strong soldiers and horses, and sufficient food and grass. I suspect that the Great Jade Kingdom is about to launch a war, and the sword is aimed at Huzhong County."

Emperor Daqian thought for a moment and nodded.

Indeed, the emperor of Dayu Kingdom is not a trouble-maker. I have been recuperating for the past two years, and I definitely want to do something big.

"Today's Qingzhou County, with General Jianfeng here, will definitely be able to defend it! Wei Chen believes that the reinforcements going to Qingzhou County should be transferred to Huzhong County. In this way, the country can be kept safe."

Saying that, Chen Menghuai also kowtowed.

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

Several ministers around him also hurriedly spoke.

"Chen Menghuai, you treacherous minister! Qingzhou County only has [-] defenders, but now there are [-] enemy troops approaching the city. It is a critical moment of life and death. But for your own selfish interests, you transferred the reinforcements that came to support!"

"That's an army of [-] people! No matter how well the Great Jade Kingdom has developed in the past few years, how can a small country like it mobilize [-] troops? Besides, the Great Jade Kingdom doesn't even have the intention to send troops. Everything is just your guess. "

"What will happen to Qingzhou if the reinforcements are transferred away? Where will you put the tens of thousands of Qingzhou people? Where will you put the country's Qingzhou County?"

After hearing this, Jian Chen was furious and spoke out.
