Chapter 1023 Death(1/2)
Emperor Mumba frowned slightly, a bad premonition welling up in his heart.
Iguado's delicate body trembled slightly and she glanced outside the door. The thunder on this sunny day was really scary.
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and not long after, Chang Gui, the military minister and the consort Prince Consort, barged in from outside, his face turned pale.
Although Chang Gui is old, his body has always been strong. As a military minister, he is also outstanding and will not panic easily.
But at this moment, not only was his face pale, but his whole body was full of panic.
Moreover, the military minister broke into the pepper room without notification.
It won't happen easily.
The bad premonition in Emperor Mengba's heart expanded rapidly. He stood up in shock, looked at Chang Gui, opened and closed his mouth, but could not speak.
Although Chang Gui saw Emperor Mengba, he was speechless.
The two looked at each other like this, speechless for a long time.
Mr. Iguado noticed something strange, and his face gradually became ugly. The good mood of visiting the imperial garden with the emperor disappeared completely.
"Is this a defeat?" After a long time, Emperor Mumba broke the silence first and asked in a trembling voice.
"Failed." Chang Gui shook his body for a while, holding the door frame with his right hand and said hoarsely.
Emperor Mumba's inner defense was quickly broken. He sat back and was silent for a long time. His eyes quickly became bloodshot and his face looked haggard.
"Where is the acting king? Where are the households? Where are the soldiers and horses? How many are left?" Emperor Mumba clenched his fists and his voice became hoarse.
He was very thirsty, so he unclenched his fists, raised his trembling hands, placed them on the teapot next to him, and picked up the teapot.
Iguadoro quickly stretched out his hand to help pour the water.
"The king of Dai and his ten thousand households all died on the battlefield and sacrificed their lives for the country. The army of eleven thousand households was almost completely wiped out."
"The Slavs withdrew and are now stationed in the border areas of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty and Han Dynasty."
Chang Gui said bitterly.
how so.
how so.
If he loses, he loses. He has lived for a long time and has experienced many storms and waves.
Moreover, ever since the confrontation between Meng Yuan and Wu Nian, they have lost consecutive battles. In this battle, although they had exhausted all their plans, logically they should not have lost.
But his opponent was the Liaodong Tiger, the King of Han Wu Nian.
It seems normal to lose.
After all, there is no guaranteed winnable war.
Seven points are human affairs, and three points are destiny.
But he failed so miserably. This was something he didn't expect.
It is terrible that the acting prince died in battle. What's more, ten thousand households followed the acting prince and died in battle.
Although heroic, it shouldn’t be.
You should at least get half of your people back.
Even if you have to run away by rolling and crawling, you can escape back to me.
How could they all die in battle?
Although you died happily, what about the country? Without you, who will lead the country and defend it?
Who is going to fight Wu Nian?
All dead, all dead.
What a bunch of bastards.
"Boom". There was another loud roar, but it was not thunder, but the roar of Emperor Mumba's heart.
His head seemed to have been hit hard by a hammer. His brain became unclear and his eyes gradually became blurred. Finally, his throat felt sweet and he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
He made a last effort, reluctantly raised his head, opened his blood-stained lips, and said weakly: "Recall...recall King Keton."
Having said that, Emperor Mumba's head tilted and he fell unconscious.
"His Majesty!!!!"
Chang Gui's eyes were about to burst when he stopped Guaduo, and then he pounced forward.
The entire Jiaofang Palace fell into chaos.
............
“Da da da!!!!!”
late at night.
Hundreds of fully armed cavalry galloped down the road. Soon after, they arrived outside the capital city. The city guarding officer who had been prepared opened the city gate, came to the city gate, and knelt down on one knee towards King Haida of Keton.
, saluted and said: "King Keton."
Haida, however, did not even look at this man. He reined in his horse and led his troops into the capital of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty.
Along the way.
He slept in the open and lived a very hard life.
What's more, the emperor is critically ill, which is a serious blow to everyone.
But his body is still upright, his eyes are still sharp, and his whole body seems to be a peerless sword that has been tempered many times and will never be defeated by external forces.
After entering Dadu, Haida led his troops to the entrance of the palace. The palace door was open, and the guards held torches and looked forward to it.
Every guard was terrified.
But after seeing Hedda, I felt at ease.
The God of War is back.
The country now has a backbone.
"Your Majesty." The guards held up torches and bowed in salute.
Haida also ignored it and turned around and ordered most of the soldiers to stay. With only a few followers, he rode into the palace and went straight to Xingdeok Palace.
At the entrance of the palace, Chang Gui stood with a haggard look on his face, his head slightly lowered. After hearing the noise, he reluctantly cheered up and looked up at Haida.
Haida dismounted, handed the whip to the soldier, and asked: "How is it?"
"No medicine or stone can save us." Chang Gui shook his head slightly, showing sadness and fear. The battle ahead was defeated, and hundreds of thousands of troops were burned to the ground.
On behalf of the king, ten thousand households died in battle.
The emperor died.
Is Meng Yuan coming to an end?
Hedda's body stiffened, she raised her head slightly and looked at the night without moving for a long time.
The faces of the Ouchi guards and Haida soldiers all around changed greatly, and they were worried.
"Huh." Haida exhaled a long breath, and then entered Xingdeok Palace without saying a word.
The soldiers and guards stayed outside the palace, and Chang Gui entered Xingdeokgung Palace with the officials.
Heungdeokgung Palace is huge.
Haida strode forward and entered the emperor's palace.
On the dragon bed, Emperor Mumba was sitting on the head of the bed, looking pretty good.
Iguado was sitting on a small round stool, holding a handkerchief and crying. The twelve-year-old prince, whose Chinese name was Jin Jingtai, and several young princes stood beside him.
Jin Jingtai has become sensible, but looks frightened. Some of the young princes are crying loudly, and some are drowsy.
"Brother Royal."
After seeing Hedda, Mrs. Iguado stood up and bent over in tears.
"Empress." Haida immediately returned the salute, then came to the dragon bed, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Emperor Mumba and said, "Your Majesty."
Emperor Mengba nodded and said to the eunuch beside him: "Give me a seat."
"Yes." The eunuch responded. He lowered his eyebrows and moved a chair in front of the dragon bed. Haida sat down without hesitation.
Emperor Mengba said to Haida: "Brother, the country is in danger. It's easier for me to go west by Hexi. But it will be hard for you, brother."
Emperor Mumba is worthy of being a hero. Although he suffered heavy losses and his life is now in danger, he was open-minded before his death.
"Your Majesty is just sick and will recover soon," Haida said.
"No. Although the imperial doctor didn't say it, I know how to see fire." Emperor Mengba shook his head, and then said sincerely: "Brother, we Meng Yuan originally made a living by fishing and hunting, and there is no emperor. If there is any big event, the nobles will sit together.
, discussed and decided.”
"We only have an emperor after learning the rules of the Han people."
