Chapter 212: A Great Victory
Xia Zhengqi was in high spirits, and looked at Cheng Feng with burning eyes, expecting him to tell the details.
Cheng Feng understood and continued: "Master Baili is very good at predicting things. They took the fake route map and really set their sights on Baihukou, ambushing a large number of troops there."
"Master Baili ordered our people to hide in the cargo boxes and set up smoke traps in the boxes."
"When the convoy arrived at Baihukou, they rushed over from all directions and surrounded the convoy. Our people immediately pretended to be frightened and raised their hands to surrender."
"They were foolishly laughing at the people of Daxia for being cowards, but when they opened the box, they were immediately hit by the smoke and were kidnapped by our people while they were still dazed."
Xia Zhengqi heard this and clapped his hands in joy: "Great! Lord Baili's plan is really great! They were all subdued without bloodshed."
Cheng Feng also laughed twice and continued: "This time, we captured a total of 2,300 remnants of the Liang Kingdom. Nearly 2,000 of them surrendered voluntarily after they woke up, and the rest were stubborn and committed suicide."
Xia Miaoyuan was stunned when he heard
this. [Oh my God! What's going on? Dad has done such a big thing behind my back these days! ]
[Fake route map! ? 】
【That is to say, the Emperor deliberately made a fake route map for transporting military equipment, and then used the trick to deal with Liang Chaozong's people! ? 】
"This time, the captives also confessed a valley where the remnants of Liang State were hiding. Lord Baili led his troops there, unexpectedly blocked their exit, and tried to persuade them to surrender. He actually succeeded in persuading more than 5,000 people to surrender."
"The remaining more than 2,000 people refused to surrender and died in battle." When he said this, Cheng Feng's tone was a little difficult.
Xia Zhengqi sighed: "It's already very good to persuade more than 5,000 people to surrender. All together, there are more than 10,000 people. Liang Chaozong must be crazy."
"Yes, they suffered heavy losses this time." Cheng Feng smiled and echoed.
【Oh my God! We destroyed someone's stronghold! A stronghold of more than 10,000 people! 】
Xia Miaoyuan was so surprised when he heard this that he couldn't close his mouth and his eyes were dull.
【I didn't expect that Daddy would be so powerful! Does the Emperor Daddy like to play the pig and eat the tiger? 】
【This time Liang Chaozong must be so angry that he will vomit blood! 】
Xia Miaoyuan remembered that it was written in the book that the remnant forces of Liang State had only 8,000 people at first. They kept absorbing some poor people who couldn't make a living.
After decades of development, the total number of people has grown to 110,000. Among the 110,000 people, including women and children, only half are soldiers.
These people are divided into seven parts, hiding in the secret mountains and forests. This time, Xia Zhengqi actually destroyed one of the strongholds easily through a strategy, which was equivalent to a severe blow to Liang Chaozong.
Xia Zhengqi listened to his daughter's voice, and the more he listened, the more he felt that he was wise and brave, and he raised his head unconsciously.
Thinking carefully, after all, this matter was still his daughter's credit, and he felt a little embarrassed.
"You go down first. I will reward you according to your merits tomorrow!" Xia Zhengqi said loudly.
Cheng Feng retreated happily.
When only the father and daughter were left in the room, Xia Zhengqi picked up his daughter and turned around several times without caring about his image.
"My precious daughter, I am so happy today!"
"Hahaha! Miao'er, this time I am indebted to your fourth brother!" Xia Zhengqi pretended to tease a child and told the truth.
"He wanted to steal the military equipment transportation route map, so I deliberately set up a fake one for him to steal!"
Xia Miaoyuan understood instantly, [So that's how it is.]
[Oh, I was actually worried that the emperor father would be fooled by the fourth prince, I didn't expect that father was so smart.]
For a moment, Xia Miaoyuan felt ashamed of her previous thoughts.
[It seems that the stupidest person in the whole thing is the fourth prince.]
Xia Miaoyuan pouted, [No wonder, who made him the son of Concubine Xian and the adulterer. It seems that the adulterer has a low IQ, which directly leads to the low IQ of this child.]
What? My daughter said that the fourth prince is not her own son? !
Xia Zhengqi instantly felt much more refreshed, and all the pain of the past few days disappeared.
No wonder he would so easily side with Liang Chaozong and betray himself.
Since there is no blood relationship, he will have to deal with the fourth prince next, and there is no need to entangle the father-son relationship.
But then he thought again, Concubine Xian, who was his concubine in the deep palace, could actually hook up with an adulterer and cuckold him!
Thinking of this, Xia Zhengqi felt like a big stone was blocking his chest, and he was very depressed.
...
Just when Xia Zhengqi was celebrating his great victory, on the other side, Liang Chaozong was furious.
After he got the military equipment transportation route map, he was overjoyed, because weapons have always been what he lacked the most.
If this batch of military equipment can be obtained, the problem of lack of weapons in the base can be solved immediately.
In order to ensure that the plan was foolproof, he took the risk and led the team in person.
Unexpectedly, the route map was fake, and the convoy they ambushed at Baihukou was also fake. The convoy did not carry any weapons at all. Everything was Xia Zhengqi's plan.
Several of his confidants risked their lives to give him the chance to escape. Otherwise, even he would have become a prisoner of the Great Xia court.
"Xia Chengyue, you are a scoundrel who eats from outside the family!"
In the Fanyin Temple, in the house where Concubine Xian lived, Liang Chaozong pinched the chin of the fourth prince fiercely.
"Uncle, I don't have it!" The fourth prince cried and begged.
Concubine Xian grabbed Liang Chaozong's arm and said, "Brother, what are you doing? Chengyue didn't know that the picture was fake."
"He took great risks and got the picture, which is already amazing. You are also responsible for not judging that the picture is fake. Why do you put all the blame on him!?"
"At this point, you are still speaking for this bastard!" Liang Chaozong glared at Concubine Xian fiercely.
"He seems obedient on the surface, but in fact he just wants to help his father, the dog emperor Xia Zhengqi, so he deliberately drew a fake picture for us."
Liang Chaozong's eyes were red and gleaming with ferocity, like a bloodthirsty beast, frightening the fourth prince to tremble.
"I didn't, I really didn't!"
Concubine Xian said hoarsely, "He's not Xia Zhengqi's son, why did you help him?!"
"I was eager to get pregnant and have a child, so I seduced a guard, Cheng Yue!"
Liang Chaozong was so angry that he didn't listen to Concubine Xian's explanation.
"You are willing to destroy your reputation to defend your son! It's ridiculous!" Liang Chaozong roared, and his big hand clamped the fourth prince's neck. The fourth prince's face turned red and he had difficulty breathing. Concubine
Xian's several defenses were in vain, which made her fall into the edge of collapse. She pulled Liang Chaozong hard, trying to save her son.
Liang Chaozong grabbed Concubine Xian with his other hand and pushed her hard, and Concubine Xian immediately fell to the ground.
At this time, the extreme fear and discomfort of the Fourth Prince aroused his desire to survive. He pulled out the hairpin on his bun and stabbed Liang Chaozong's arm fiercely.
Liang Chaozong felt the pain and threw the Fourth Prince out fiercely as a conditioned reflex.
