Tortoise of the Great Desolation

Chapter 612 Kong Xuan’s Northern Expedition
Happy days are always short.

Shen Gui hadn't been ashamed or impatient in the harem for two days, and Beibohou Chonghouhu reappeared.

After Shen Gui received Chonghouhu in the hall, Chonghouhu burst into tears with a "wow".

"Your Majesty, you must be the master of the minister!"

Looking at Chonghouhu who was full of snot and tears, Shen Gui was also a little speechless.

This is too good, right?
He hasn't pursued Chonghouhu's responsibility yet, but this Chonghouhu cried miserably first.

Stretching out his hand to knock on the cases in front of him, Shen Gui said calmly: "Okay! The dignified Beibohou, how can it be proper to cry and cry here? If you don't shut up again, this Beibohou should be replaced by someone else."

Hearing what Shen Gui said, Chonghouhu took back all the snot and tears in a second, the speed was really lightning fast, and the jingle of bells made Shen Gui stunned for a moment.

Tapping the cases in front of him with his index finger, Shen Gui said, "Tell me, what's going on. Why did Wen Zhong lose the army, and what did you do again?"

Hearing Shen Gui's mention of Wen Zhong's defeat, Chonghou Hu immediately shuddered and bowed to the ground: "Your Majesty, this really has nothing to do with my ministers! After the old grand master's Northern Expedition, the ministers were only in charge of logistics. I don’t even know what’s going on at the front line!”

However, Shen Gui didn't pay attention to Chonghou Hu's crying, he just said indifferently: "Since you don't know what to ask, what use are you for?"

Hearing Shen Gui's indifferent tone, Chonghouhu shivered again.

He found that the king seemed less talkative than before, and he could feel that the king was not joking with him.

Therefore, with a strong desire to survive, Chonghou Hu hurriedly said: "Wait, Your Majesty, I have remembered!"

"Say."

Taking a cautious look at Shen Gui, Chonghou Hu considered his choice of words and said, "Your Majesty, I seem to have heard from Kuu Zuu that the old grand master was about to break through Beihai City, but the Beihai Navy didn't know where to come from." A few masters suddenly appeared and attacked the old grand master, caught off guard, the old grand master was seriously injured by them on the spot, and lost his trace in the chaos army, but the old grand master was not there, and the Northern Expeditionary Army had no leader, so they suffered such a big defeat. When the news reaches the minister, even if the minister wants to rescue the old grand master, he will be powerless!"

"What a powerless one." Glancing at Chonghouhu faintly, Shen Gui knew that Chonghouhu would not dare to lie in front of him on general matters, but this did not mean that what Chonghouhu said was justified. Be able to believe it all.

Among other things, if Chonghouhu sent troops to rescue Wen Zhong's army as soon as he learned of Wen Zhong's defeat, let alone whether the defeat could be saved, but at least the Northern Expeditionary Army would not be defeated so badly.

However, he didn't want to pursue these, because he didn't have any hope for Chonghouhu, after all, Chonghouhu's ability was there.Therefore, as long as Chonghouhu can remain loyal to him, that's enough.

Of course, having said that, but for Chonghou Tiger, when it's time to beat, you still have to beat it.

Therefore, Shen Gui immediately asked: "Wen Zhong's army was defeated, how is the situation in the north now?"

Hearing this question from Shen Gui, Chonghouhu's expression changed, but in the end he replied honestly: "Back to your lord, after the defeat of the old grand master, those cities that the old grand master took back were all taken over again. The Beihai rebels have taken it back, and now the Beihai rebels are so ferocious and powerful that they are as powerful as ever."

"Oh?" With a slight snort, Shen Gui looked at Chonghouhu in the main hall, and asked indifferently: "Is this how you treat yourself as your Beibohou?"

Although Shen Gui's tone was not serious, it sounded like thunder to Chonghou Hu's ears.

Therefore, without any hesitation, he knelt down on the ground again with a plop: "Your Majesty Mingjian! Many masters appeared from nowhere among the Beihai rebels, and even the old grand master was defeated by them. If I lead the troops to stop , it’s tantamount to turning a mantis’ arm into a cart!”

Glancing at Chonghouhu faintly, Shen Gui said: "You can't change the fact that you are incompetent even if you are eloquent. However, Gu is not a person who does not miss old love. I think it is because of your loyalty to Gu. , Gu will give you one last chance. Gu asks you, if you send people to help you deal with those traitors in the Beihai Navy, can you help Gu put down the Beihai Rebellion?"

Hearing this, Chonghouhu actually wanted to say - there are so many great ministers and good generals, sending any one there is better than a minister!
But he also knew that in the current situation, if he shied away, he would really lose sight of the situation.

The most important thing is that as long as those able men and strangers in the Beihai Navy do not take action, Chonghouhu is still somewhat sure to deal with Yuan Futong and his army.

Therefore, in the end, Chonghouhu gritted his teeth and replied loudly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, as long as those traitors in the Beihai Navy are punished, I will definitely put down the rebellion in Beihai for Your Majesty!"

"I hope you don't disappoint Gu." With a light reply, Shen Gui looked outside the hall, and then said: "Kong Xuan, since you're here, why don't you come in and see Gu?"

As Shen Gui's voice fell, a young man in a brocade robe also walked in from outside the hall.

It was Kong Xuan.

However, looking at Shen Gui on the seat, Kong Xuan's eyes are full of surprise and guard: "Who are you?"

Kong Xuan couldn't calm down.

The last time he was hunted down by Duobao and Wudang, what he saw was an ordinary human emperor, but now the Shang king in front of him, with his strength, can't see through it. Use unfathomable four words to describe it.

It was the first time Kong Xuan had encountered this feeling.

Looking at the guarded Kong Xuan, Shen Gui smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter who Gu is. What matters is whether you still count on what you promised Gu."

After taking a deep look at Shen Gui, Kong Xuan said directly: "I, Kong Xuan, keep what I say, and I will never go back on my promises."

"That's enough." Nodding his head, Shen Gui pointed to Chonghou Hu on the side and said, "Beihai rebelled, and Beibohou repeatedly attacked to no avail. Later, the lonely sent Wen Zhong to go there, but Wen Zhong was also defeated. All this is because some monks participated in the rebellion in the North Sea. This time Gu wants you to accompany Bei Bohou on the Northern Expedition. If there are monks in the Beihai Navy who make a move, they will be killed without mercy. After this incident, the cause and effect between you and Gu will be understood. "

Hearing what Shen Gui said, Kong Xuan nodded without thinking, "It's a deal."—Anyway, he didn't want to get involved with this unfathomable and unknown guy in front of him.

Seeing that Kong Xuan agreed, Shen Gui also set his sights on Chonghouhu.

Seeing the nervous Chonghouhu, Shen Gui said calmly: "The monk Kong Xuan in Beihai will help you solve it. If you still can't calm down Beihai, then you don't have to be Beibohou."
