Dayu Execution Officer, begins to torture the demon girl's fiancee

Chapter 440 The good times don't last long
"The eve of Haishi..."

Outside the screen of the bedroom, the secret guards of the Eastern Palace repeatedly played the report.

"The army of the demon court brazenly crossed the frozen river and rushed to Taiyang pass. The general guarding the pass, Jian Baoguo, resisted desperately. Together with the deputy general Wang Cheng who went to support, he successfully stopped the bandit army!"

Zhao Cuo straightened his back on the couch in an instant, his eyes widened unconsciously, and he was shocked.

'Demon girl didn't lie to me? '

He subconsciously exchanged glances with the empress dowager with squinting eyes.

"How many troops were dispatched by the Yaozu to attack the pass this time? Tell me in detail what you know."

The little father-in-law asked repeatedly, wouldn't he trust Boluan Banxia just because he told the truth this time, what if it was a trick?
"Return to the general! The monster clan has moved in full force this time, and the tens of thousands of cavalry stationed in Donghe killed all of them to Taiyang Pass the day before yesterday."

"it is good……"

General Zhao was even more puzzled.

The demon court is attacking with all its strength this time, and if the 10,000+ army moves, if there is no gain, it will be a loss!

So, it was necessary for their eldest princess to pay a heavy price for the morale of the three armies, just to win the trust he could not give?
"Go down, if there is any news about the Three Northern Mansions, report it to me and the general as soon as possible."

After pondering for a moment, the queen mother waved and said.

"As ordered."

The secret guard outside left quietly.

"His Royal Highness Guanwang really has all-hands and eyes. The information about the monster clan's attack that he obtained in advance is actually true. I am a little impressed by you."

The queen turned her head to look at him, her majestic phoenix eyes were full of scrutiny, trying to see through her.

It really gave her a feeling of being out of control.

She, who is in charge of the secret guards of the Eastern Palace, could not get this news.

"I have someone in the demon court. If you want to know, I can tell you."

Zhao Cuo didn't change his expression, and hugged her even tighter as he spoke. He was willing to confess and be lenient.

"Now you still dare to show off your power in front of this palace, are you proud of yourself? Your courage is commendable."

The villain smiled and raised her jade hand to caress his cheek.

"You will be mistaken."

The little father-in-law had no choice but to bury his face in her arms.

"No, right? Ben Gong claims to be able to understand you. The general seems to have ignored me."

"If you say that, I can only do as you wish, hum."

Zhao thief feigned anger and bit her bosom.

"But you're doing well."

She suddenly rubbed his hair softly again.

"Without your advance deployment, the demon court suddenly attacked Taiyang Pass, a small pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the guards probably would not be able to stop it."

The empress dowager whispered in his ear as if praising him, then lowered her head and kissed him on the forehead to express her reward.

"You can handle state affairs with peace of mind."

Zhao Cuo said solemnly immediately.

"Let me deal with the Mobei demon court, and I will let them know what offensive and defensive forces are."

"Huh? You know how to avoid the important and take the light. You want to hand over the tedious state affairs to me in a logical manner."

Empress Dowager Zhao poked his cheek without changing her smile.

"It doesn't matter if you don't realize my cleverness."

Prince Zhao is willing to take the initiative to put himself in the position of a junior only at this time, otherwise he still wants to be a father.

"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense, go to the side hall and bring An'er."

The queen raised her jade feet in disgust and gave it to him.

"Got it."

General Zhao readily accepted the order.

He was only satisfied with seeing An'er every day.

I have to go to the Kunde Palace in a while, and of course Huan'er will be in pain, after all, daughters are cuter.

"It was just a report from the secret guards of the Eastern Palace. The official military report should be delivered soon. You should get down to business when the time comes."

The female devil said after teasing the child with him for a while.

Military affairs are now handled by Zhao fault.

The war is about to start again.

"pass it to me."

Prince Zhao went to the Kunde Palace after having lunch in the East Palace.

Xiao Huan'er held grudges very much, and seemed to remember the first time they met and was cried by him, so she didn't get close to him for several days.

But it doesn't matter, Zhao thief has been playing with her for several days in a row, and the child fell in love with him when he held it high.

"General! This is the handwriting of General Liu Yi, the chief soldier of the Northern Army, and the secret copy of Deputy General Wang Cheng."

"Go down and rest."

Zhao Cuo finally got the detailed military report of the Northern Army in the afternoon.

"The leader of the demon court this time is Taicha, who is known as the number one warrior of the demon clan. He led a hundred thousand cavalry and multiple infantry, and after forcibly crossing the frozen river, he attacked Taiyang Pass..."

He looked at the letter from Liu Yi, the chief soldier of the Northern Army, with a solemn expression. He was startled and wanted to curse.

"One hundred thousand cavalry? How many horses are there in the Demon Court? It's terrifying..."

Prince Zhao pursed his lower lip.

Dayu's northern and southern armies combined couldn't get together [-] horses!
This is an unprecedented enemy, and their strength across the frozen river may not be all. The real strength of the demon court will only be more terrifying.

"This time I blocked the Yaozu, but what should I do next? I can't be passively beaten."

General Zhao read Wang Cheng's letter again.

General Wang was the eyes and ears he sent to the Northern Army to prevent those soldiers who were not directly related to him from being obedient, but this was just a tactic to delay the troops.

He still needs to control the Northern Army as soon as possible, so that the main forces of Dayu are completely unified in his hands, which is very important.

"General Liu Yi should have no dissatisfaction. The report is not much different from what General Wang said. How should we fight this battle..."

Zhao Cuo tapped the table with his fingers irregularly, which shows that he is also uneasy.

"Midsummer is approaching, and the Demon Court seems to have no fear of the weather. They can run thousands of miles on horseback."

At this time, he felt an unprecedented difficulty, and he couldn't be happy about Xiaosheng at Taiyang Pass, because he had been tipped off by the witch.

"It's hard for Dayu and the Yaozu to gain benefits by fighting alone. Is there any force that can unite? The Jinyue Khanate of the Wuzu has also been destroyed..."

The young man was undecided.

The area to the north of Dayu is almost the Yaozu's sphere of influence, but on the contrary, they also control the south of Donghe.

The Xisha Kingdom established by the Gu clan can be contacted, but they have always followed the lead of the demon court, and they are not at all with them.

"The witch clan is arrogant, and they must not be willing to be driven and exploited by the invaders at will. You can send people to contact them, organize forces behind the demon court, and make them suffer from the enemy."

General Zhao sighed lightly, he knew that he would not stay in the capital for long, and now he had to go to Mobei to lead the army himself.

But it's not now, it's going to be summer soon, and he can leave after the sprinkler festival.

And he wants to deal with the demon girl who has been entangled first.

"Boluan Banxia will come to see me..."

　Update as usual at night.
