Chapter 1237: Great Victory at the Border
Next, Han Xing took the lead and led more than 100,000 soldiers of the Mu family to the next city.
The little guy's fighting power is still as fierce as ever, and the enemies he hits with the eight-sided hammer make them scream in pain.
By dark, they had recaptured the other two cities. Because of his bravery, Han Xing was given the title of Invincible Little Overlord.
By the time the news reached the capital, it was already a day later.
After discussing matters in various places, the emperor did not ask to leave the court, and his eyes kept looking towards the entrance of the hall.
So many days have passed, and I haven't heard any news from the border. I wonder how Chen'er is doing.
“………………”The ministers looked at each other.
They all secretly glanced at the emperor on the dragon throne, and seeing him looking towards the door of the hall again and again, they knew that he was thinking about the affairs of the border.
They were the same. They hadn't received any news for several days and were very worried.
Even Han Mulei's face was not relaxed, although the last time he received a letter from Tuoba Yu, he said that the fourth city would be captured soon.
But these few days have passed and there has been no movement at all, which is really worrying.
Just when everyone was thinking different things, the messenger ran in.
"Report... a great victory at the border. Prince Chen led the Mu family army and recaptured all the lost cities within a day!"
The messenger's excited voice echoed throughout the hall.
“………………”Everyone was silent.
They all stared at the messenger kneeling before the emperor like mutes, unable to recover for a long time.
What did they hear? How could it be possible to recapture all the cities in one day?
Even the emperor sitting on the main seat looked confused. He stared at the messenger kneeling below and it took him a long time to utter a few words with difficulty.
"What did you say?"
He leaned forward, almost standing up in excitement.
"Your Majesty, Prince Chen has decisively defeated the Tuoba army and recaptured all the lost cities within a single day."
“………………”Everyone’s eyes lit up.
Only then did they regain some consciousness, smiles appeared on their faces, and they started discussing with each other.
You heard right! The lost city was truly recovered!
King Chen is worthy of being the God of War of Dayu Kingdom. He is so fast.
Even the emperor had a look of joy on his face. He calmed down and laughed out loud.
"Okay, okay, my son really didn't disappoint me, hahahaha..."
The emperor sat firmly on the dragon throne again, tilting his neck back and laughing heartily.
No one could understand how excited he was at that moment, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
If the Dongping Army had to capture the city, countless people would have to suffer from displacement.
Now that’s good, the people can live in peace again, and he can feel at ease too.
Just when everyone was worried, Han Mulei clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves.
Try to control the expression on your face.
“………………”
Failed! Tuoba Yu actually failed! What a loser.
I had vowed before that I would succeed, but I didn't expect to fail so miserably. The city was taken back by the enemy in one day.
It was such a waste of 200,000 dan of grain from Chuxiong State. Now that we have been defeated, how can we explain it to others? We will be implicated as well.
Just when he was feeling frustrated, the emperor's surprised voice came again.
"Tell me the details!"
The emperor looked at the messenger in front of him excitedly, unable to hide his excitement.
The messenger was also very excited, and he recounted the battle situation on the front line in detail.
"Your Majesty, this great victory is largely due to the contribution of King Chen's beloved disciple Han Xing..."
The messenger told everyone present in detail how the little guy charged into battle, how he offered advice, and how he dealt with the enemy.
Not only did he become more and more excited, but everyone present also became excited.
What's more, it's unbelievable that a four-year-old kid could be so powerful, if I hadn't heard it in this hall.
I thought it was just a storyteller's exaggeration. In ordinary families, a four-year-old child is just beginning to learn, while others have already gone to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Not only can he act as the head coach, but he can also offer thoughtful suggestions. It doesn't sound like something a four-year-old child can do.
But the messenger was right before their eyes and explained it so clearly that no one could help but believe it, and the emperor was very happy.
He excitedly grasped the armrests of the dragon throne. If he hadn't held on tightly, he would have jumped up.
When I first went to Chen'er, I also saw that child. Although he looked quite strong, I didn't expect him to be so powerful.
He was able to go to the battlefield and kill enemies at the age of four, and he was brave and resourceful. However, Chen'er was not as capable as him back then.
This child cannot be underestimated. He will definitely become the second Chen'er in the future. I am so happy when I think about it.
It was as if I saw the hope for Dayu's future, and the whole world became bright.
But Han Mulei was depressed, and his heart was filled with suffocation without a break.
I was still thinking about how to explain the follow-up to Chuxiong Kingdom, and I couldn't hear what was said next.
Some ministers, led by him, were trying to please everyone on the surface, but they were also very worried in their hearts.
Now that the Dongping army has been defeated, the Second Prince will have a hard time explaining to Chuxiong.
But most people were happy from the bottom of their hearts. The clouds of sorrow that had been hanging over them for many days had completely dissipated, and they were in a really good mood.
In particular, several military generals headed by General Cheng laughed loudly without any reservation.
"Hahahaha... King Chen leads his troops like a god, and his disciples are also so powerful."
I have seen that kid before, he was just a black mud ball, but I didn’t expect that such a short time later, he could actually go into battle and kill the enemy.
With such brave generals, Dayu's kingdom will surely last for thousands of years.
The other generals also nodded excitedly and agreed.
Just when everyone was immersed in joy, the messenger's words made the entire court boil again.
"Your Majesty, Prince Chen not only defeated the Dongping Army, but also seized nearly 200,000 dan of grain, which is now on its way to the national treasury."
"What?" The emperor suddenly sat up from his wheelchair and stared at the messenger below.
The other ministers who were discussing the matter also stared blankly at the messenger in front of them, too shocked to speak.
Two hundred thousand dan of grain is tens of millions of kilograms. The fact that Tuoba Yu transported so much grain here shows how ambitious he is.
This was intended to be a protracted war. Fortunately, King Chen acted in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Even Han Mulei's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
“………………”
We had agreed to only capture a few cities and then write to my father to negotiate terms, but that bastard Tuoba Yu actually transported all the food here.
It was obvious that the target was not just a few cities. His palms began to sweat, and even the Marquis of Yongning, who was standing next to him, felt panicked.
The second prince almost let a wolf into the house, and it was fortunate that King Chen took action in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Even the emperor's face turned pale, and he felt a little scared.
“………………”
Fortunately, Chen'er rushed there this time!
