Lu Bu wrapped Yang Youji's head with several pieces of coarse cloth.
At the same time, his body was sent to Hangu Pass by special personnel.
No matter what, Yang Youji was a famous general of the Chu State.
He is a figure destined to go down in history.
He should not be beheaded and have no place to be buried.
This is the unique feeling among Chinese generals.
Even when they are alive, they fight to the death.
Even after death, one will still think about leaving the other person with dignity.
This is a kind of respect for the 'opponent'.
"All troops, listen up! Return to the city gate!"
Lu Bu gave his last order.
The bodies of all the Qin soldiers were carried onto horses by the living.
They wanted to bury the martyrs who died in the war on their own land.
Let their heroic spirits continue to guard that place.
Due to the tight time and heavy task, and the fact that there was no shortage of food and grass at Hangu Pass, Lu Bu ordered all the food and grass carried by the Chu army to be burned.
This is also to save time.
After all, they still had to return to Hangu Pass with the bodies of their own people.
at this time.
At the city gate.
Ying Yuan's gaze was fixed on the distance.
He wanted to witness the tragic defeat of Lu Bu and others with his own eyes as soon as possible.
At this moment, a scout hurried over, knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty! Generals Lu and Pan have returned!"
The tone is more or less heavy.
Because among the Qin soldiers who died in the battle were his closest relatives and friends.
Hearing the voice, Ying Yuan suddenly stood up from his chair, looking very excited.
Judging from the scout's tone, he was probably defeated!
He was very happy when he thought of this.
So, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he hurried out of the city to greet them in person.
Seeing this, Yu Jin sighed to himself, "Your Majesty personally welcomes your subordinates back home. Who else but the Emperor of our Great Qin could do this?"
soon.
Nearly 30,000 cavalrymen came galloping over.
When Lu Bu saw the emperor, he immediately dismounted, holding Yang Youji's head wrapped in coarse cloth in his hand. He quickly walked up to the emperor and bowed deeply, saying:
"Foster father, I have fulfilled my mission and have cut off the head of the enemy general Yang Youji and presented it to Your Majesty!"
At this time, Pan Feng, who was following closely behind, also bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, our army has won a great victory in this battle. We have killed over 29,000 enemies and seized countless supplies, and our army has only lost over a thousand men!"
As soon as the words fell.
Ying Yuan, who was originally very excited, was stunned on the spot.
Win...win?
The expected defeat did not happen, but we won instead?
This damn...
No!
Fake!
This must be fake!
When Ying Yuan saw the soldiers behind them, his expression immediately changed.
From excitement to despair.
I even had the urge to cry again.
Everyone noticed that something was wrong with the emperor's expression.
Lu Bu and others followed his gaze and were immediately relieved.
It turns out that Your Majesty saw the bodies of those fallen soldiers, so he felt a little sad?
Your Majesty loves your soldiers like your own sons!
To be honest, Ying Yuan really has an urge to curse someone now.
Even if you attacked the enemy's vanguard camp, they still have more than 30,000 people!
There are also 30,000 of you.
How could such a great victory be achieved?
Only a thousand or so killed?
Just thinking about it will tell you that this is impossible!
But that’s what happened!
Ying Yuan suddenly felt like crying but had no tears.
"You all...get up. I'm tired and need to go back to rest."
He was indeed tired.
I feel tired.
Really, if it really doesn't work, let's have a disaster and destroy the world.
I am really tired.
I miss home.
When the generals saw the emperor turn around and leave with a somewhat lonely look on his face, they felt mixed emotions.
What a benevolent Majesty this is!
Even though our army won a great victory, when His Majesty saw the fallen soldiers, the first thing he felt was not joy, but sadness.
Your Majesty's heart is filled with the soldiers!
Just for this reason, Your Majesty is worthy of our loyalty until death!
"In fact, Your Majesty has never liked war."
Jia Xu came up to Lu and Pan and slowly helped them up.
Upon hearing this, they both agreed deeply.
Whether it was resisting the Chu army a few years ago, or the battle against Japan, even riding a horse across the rivers and lakes, or leading the army in person today.
In fact, they are all passive and helpless actions.
Your Majesty has never truly provoked a war out of your own ambition.
It was they who forced Your Majesty to reach this day step by step.
Your Majesty can cry bitterly for the soldiers who died in Japan, and you can also feel sad for the soldiers who were killed and injured in the attack on the enemy camp today.
From this point, it is not difficult to see that His Majesty has always not wanted any bloodshed or sacrifice to happen.
Your Majesty only wants the Qin Dynasty to prosper and its people to no longer be bullied.
It is they who have been forcing Your Majesty to resort to war.
"Your Majesty, this is really not easy."
"Yes, it was not easy. When Your Majesty was young, you were targeted by the royal family and the concubines of the previous emperor.
When he was young, he was stripped of his power by the officials and watched covetously by Empress Lü, forcing him to hide his incompetence...
