Faced with Yun Zheng's public questioning, Wei Wenzhong's face suddenly fell.
"I didn't say I wouldn't change!"
Wei Wenzhong suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "We want to change, but we also need to be strategic! We can't change blindly! If we fall into Beihuan's trap, who will be responsible?"
"I am responsible!"
Yun Zheng also suddenly raised his voice, "I sent someone to tell you that today is the final deadline! If we don't make an exchange with Beihuan tomorrow, and Beihuan changes its mind and doesn't want to exchange Sanbian City, you, me, and everyone present here will be the sinners of my crime! All of us will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history!"
Yun Zheng roared with almost all his strength.
Every word he said was clearly heard by everyone.
Listening to Yun Zheng's words, many people nodded.
This is the best chance to regain lost ground!
Granted, Beihuan might be up to some scheming tricks.
...
...
But even so, they have to give it a try!
If they missed this opportunity, they would not be able to face their ancestors in the afterlife.
"Your Majesty is truly righteous!"
Wei Wenzhong said with a dark face: "If we really fall into the trap of Beihuan, thousands of soldiers will die at the hands of the enemy! Even if you want to take responsibility, you may not be able to bear this responsibility!"
Yun Zheng looked at Wei Wenzhong coldly and said righteously: "If they fall into Beihuan's evil plan, I really can't guarantee their survival! But I will die before them! As long as I can recover the lost land, I will not hesitate to die! I believe that all the soldiers have the same idea!"
"Well said!"
Qin Qihu clapped his hands and laughed, looking at Wei Wenzhong with contempt, "Wei Wenzhong, if you are afraid of death, go back to Dingbei! We will follow the Sixth Prince to recover the lost territory!"
"Qin Qihu!"
Wei Wenzhong's face changed drastically and he stared at Qin Qihu with a cold expression.
"Why do I call you Grandpa Qihu?"
Qin Qihu was not afraid at all. "Wei Wenzhong, I'm telling you, if you dare to be timid again and miss the chance to recover the lost territory, I don't care if you are some shitty Zhenbei General. I will chop off your head and feed it to the dogs!"
Hearing Qin Qihu's words, many generals laughed.
Many people started discussing it directly in front of Wei Wenzhong.
"General Zhenbei? I think it's more appropriate to call him General Coward!"
"That's right! The Sixth Prince is trying his best to recover the lost territory, but some people are just dragging him down all day long!"
"Wasn't it the same last time? Your Highness, while they were winning the battle, some people were afraid to attack and watched helplessly as the Northern Huan army escaped from the Riftwind Canyon..."
"This cannot be blamed on the general. The general also does not want to fall into Bei Huan's evil scheme..."
"Yeah, this is a big deal, it never hurts to be cautious."
Everyone was talking about it.
Although many people spoke up for Wei Wenzhong, there were more curses.
This is not difficult to understand.
After all, he is a general!
Who doesn’t want to regain lost territory?
Putting aside the question of whether it is a merit or not, just the four words "recovering lost territory" are a huge honor.
Throughout the ages, countless people have sacrificed their lives and shed their blood to recover lost territory.
Now, with the opportunity to regain lost territory before us, how many people are willing to miss this great opportunity?
Hearing these voices, Wei Wenzhong's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
He just felt that many people looked at him with contempt.
Many people are calling Wei Wenzhong a coward in their hearts, right?
"You...are so outrageous!"
Wei Wenzhong was so angry that his whole body was shaking and he clenched his fists tightly.
The rebellion!
They all rebelled!
Did you say that you would not recover the lost territory?
I was just reminding them to be careful and worried about Bei Huan's evil plot, but they were so presumptuous?
In their eyes, is there still military law?
Is there still a general like me who guards the north?
"Okay, okay, let's all calm down first!"
Dugu Ce quickly came out to smooth things over, "Don't we still have half a day? Let's discuss it carefully first! We have to make the change, but it's always better to be careful!"
To be honest, Dugu Ce didn't think Wei Wenzhong did anything wrong.
On the contrary, Wei Wenzhong's caution was justified.
If it were him, he would definitely be more cautious.
He felt that many people had been misled by Yun Zheng and Qin Qihu.
Wei Wenzhong did not say that he would not exchange lost land with Beihuan, he just said that they should be cautious.
But after Yun Zheng and Qin Qihu said that, it seemed as if Wei Wenzhong wanted to stop this.
These reckless men who are following here to curse Wei Wenzhong don’t even think about whether Wei Wenzhong has the courage to stop this?
well!
This is the consequence of losing the morale of the army!
In the past, if Wei Wenzhong had said that he should be more cautious, no one would have said he was a coward.
But now, Wei Wenzhong’s prestige is not as high as before, and he has lost a lot of military morale. Even if his decisions make sense, they may be misunderstood as cowardice.
It might be difficult for Wei Wenzhong to restore the morale of his troops!
After Dugu Ce's persuasion, Wei Wenzhong and Yun Zheng finally decided to go into the city first.
Qin Qihu rode up to Yun Zheng and said, "Sixth Prince, you have really done a great deed this time!"
"It doesn't matter what kind of merit you get, as long as we can recover the lost territory." Yun Zheng said seriously, "Father has been worried about the loss of Sanbian City for many years. Now, we finally see the hope of recovering Sanbian City."
"yes!"
Qin Qihu nodded in agreement, and then angrily cursed: "Wei Wenzhong is a bastard. He eats the emperor's salary but is not loyal to the emperor. He is always afraid of wolves and tigers..."
Qin Qihu had a loud voice to begin with, and he did not deliberately lower his voice, so his words were naturally heard by Wei Wenzhong who was standing in front of him.
Wei Wenzhong clenched his teeth tightly, his face turning ashen.
For a moment, he really wanted to kill that bastard Qin Qihu.
This bastard, relying on the fact that his father is Qin Liugan, not only does he not take me seriously at all, but he also humiliates me in public time and time again. He is so hateful!
Even more hateful than Yun Zheng!
If I get the chance, I must teach this bastard a lesson!
Looking at Wei Wenzhong who was clenching his fists in anger, Yun Zheng couldn't help laughing in his heart, and then asked Qin Qihu: "Brother Qin, how many prisoners from the Northern Huan do you have in Suining Guard? We are going to exchange prisoners with the Northern Huan this time."
"We don't have many."
Qin Qihu said carelessly: "We only captured 20 to 30 people when we retreated before..."
Twenty or thirty?
That's a bit less indeed.
All the prisoners together numbered less than two thousand.
With this calculation, it would not be a loss to have 1,200 war horses.
Everyone came to the camp of Suining Guard. Yun Zheng ordered his men to keep the captives and Jia Yao under strict guard, and then they followed into the residence of the commander of Suining Guard.
Wei Wenzhong sat down with a dark face, suppressing his anger and said: "Your Majesty, tell me, how did you talk with those people from Beihuan? Let's discuss it together and see if there are any problems!"
