Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 278
Taking a deep breath, Li Yuancai took the first battle report from the soldier. He found that he was afraid to read it.

When he opened the letter, his heart was pounding, and his expression instantly became excited and ecstatic. Grand Master Yang on the side quickly urged: "Tell me what you are going to do!"

"Hahahaha, a great victory! Our army has a great victory!"

Li Yuan laughed loudly: "My lords, what a great victory for our army! Jinlin Pass was lost. The enemy's more than [-] troops fought with our [-] troops outside Tongzhou. The Qi army was completely wiped out, and only [-] Zhou cavalry were left in embarrassment. escape!"

"From the beginning of the war to now, out of the 60 troops of Zhou Qi, only [-] Zhou troops are left. They can no longer attack me! Hahahaha, we won!"

Li Yuan raised his arms and shouted, and the courtiers were all excited.

Master Yang sat back on the chair and said, "God bless you!"

"The 60-strong army was almost completely wiped out. Haha, these two ambitious guys from Zhou Qi won't be able to recover within ten years!"

"Yes! I didn't expect that we actually won! The frontline soldiers are so strong!"

"God bless the country of Qian, and I, Daqian, will be immortal for eternity!"

Everyone laughed wildly. The disaster of destroying the country was finally over, and they no longer had to be slaves to the subjugation of the country!

During this period of time, the entire Qian Kingdom was not only filled with panic among the people, but also among them officials, who were not on tenterhooks?

Now I'm fine, I finally won, I can breathe a sigh of relief!
At this time, Lin Yu said abruptly: "What about the casualties of our army?"

After hearing this, everyone also realized that if they could win this battle, the damage on their side would definitely be considerable.

Li Yuan picked up the second battle report, and the soldier spoke softly, with a somewhat sad voice: "Sir, this is the summary of our army's casualties and the list of generals who died in the battle."

Hearing what he said, many people present sighed and looked at the white cloth tied around the soldier's waist, as if in mourning.

I knew even more clearly that I was afraid that there were also heavy casualties on my side. I was afraid that some general had died in the battle. Otherwise, why would the soldiers wear white cloth around their waists?
Li Yuan opened the battle report and said with a heavy heart: "The battle of Zhou Qi Fagan lasted for April [-], and the generals who died in our army are as follows."

"Former general Chen Xuanlong died in battle, rear general Sun Tianli died in battle, former military academy captain Wu Hai died in battle, former military academy captain Zhao Li died in battle, captain Chen Liu died in battle, rear military academy captain Yun Chen died in battle, cavalry commander Liu Kang died in battle, and Tianyu military academy captain Qian Xuan died in battle die……"

There are hundreds of names in the extremely long list. How many of the 30-strong army are famous generals in the army, but now there are only names left one after another.

"Yuanjiang County Yishi, Zhang Long, Huang Tianxing..."

Li Yuan's expression suddenly changed as he read it, his pupils shrank, as if he couldn't believe it and he rubbed his eyes desperately.

Ning Wang Xiao Feiyu on the side quickly asked: "What's wrong with Mr. Li?"

The battle report fell from Li Yuan's hand, and everyone's hearts suddenly lifted when they heard Li Yuan speak with difficulty.

"Feng Bao, the chief eunuch, died in battle, and..."

"Who else!" Zhao Jinsheng urged, Lin Yu was breathing rapidly.

Li Yuan's voice was trembling: "National Preceptor Zhao Kang died in battle!"

There was a rumble, like thunder across his heart, and Xiao Xuance stood up immediately: "Impossible! How could Lao Zhao die! This is absolutely impossible!"

The soldier could no longer hold back at this moment and sat directly on the ground wiping tears: "In the last battle, the National Master took the lead and led us to turn defeat into victory. He was hit by countless swords. Although he repelled the enemy, he died of his injuries. !”

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could Lao Zhao die!" Xiao Xuance's eyes widened and he kept mumbling.

Master Yang's face turned pale and he quickly asked: "Where is your Majesty?"

The whereabouts of Xiao Linglong are still a mystery. Now that even Zhao Kang is dead, could it be possible that Her Majesty the Empress is also dead?

The soldier trembled: "General Zhou Long has led the army to pick up Your Majesty."

After hearing this, Master Yang finally calmed down, okay, okay, your majesty is fine, he is still alive!

Xiao Feiyu said coldly at this moment: "Where is the body of the Imperial Master!"

"General Zhang Zheng said that the Imperial Guard's last words were that he failed to defend Jinlin Pass, so after his death he was buried in Jinlin Pass, to be with the souls of the heroes who died at Jinlin Pass! The Imperial Guard has been buried!"

Xiao Xuance's heart suddenly twisted when he heard this, and he couldn't help but shed tears.Li Yuan only felt that it was a little difficult to breathe. Only Lin Yu, Zhao Jinsheng and others, they didn't know how much effort it took to suppress their crazy smiles.

The hall suddenly fell into sadness.

After a long time, Xiao Feiyu seemed to have lost all his strength, "Let's wait until His Majesty comes back to discuss the affairs of the Imperial Master."

Looking at his appearance, outsiders thought it was caused by grief. After all, Zhao Kang and Xiao Feiyu seemed to have a very good relationship.

On this day, the news of Zhao Kang's death spread throughout the imperial capital, causing shock to both the government and the public.

National Teacher's Office.

The woman in red was stunned, looked at the eunuch who came to announce and murmured: "W-what did you say?"

"Girl, the Master of the State has sacrificed his life for the country." The eunuch said sadly.

The woman took three steps back and suddenly smiled: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! You must be lying to me."

Tears instantly overflowed from Qin Yufeng's eyes and filled her eyes.

Yuanjiang County.

Xiao Linglong looked at Zhou Long who arrived in advance in despair, and blood suddenly overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

Zhou Long was shocked when he saw this and hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty!"

"I'm fine."

With her fists clenched tightly and drops of blood seeping into her white clothes, Xiao Linglong said, "How did he die?"

According to Zhao Kang's explanation, Zhou Long could only conceal it and repeat it according to the words discussed in advance.

"Before his death, the Imperial Master told the general to wait until the army arrives to take His Majesty back to the Imperial Capital..."

"I understand, please retreat. Follow me back to the imperial capital when the army arrives." Xiao Linglong turned around silently.

Zhou Long was filled with doubts, but he still called out: "Your Majesty?"

"Get out!"

Xiao Linglong shouted angrily, Zhou Long didn't dare to say anything more and quickly retreated.

Her eyes were closed, but she couldn't control the flow of two lines of blood and tears. Her Majesty the Empress stretched out her hand as if to catch something in the void.

But in the end it was all in vain, there was no one in front of me.

Thunderbolts come from sunny days, heavy rains fall suddenly, and the falling rain cannot take away thousands of thoughts and erase the sorrow in the heart.

Only regret remains in the world.

Watching the rain falling outside the window, Xiao Feiyu, who returned to Prince Ning's residence, stared at the rain curtain in trance, with a cold light in his eyes.

"Did you die? Is it really that easy?"

The woman walked down the stairs, her face a little pale: "I heard that he is dead?"

"That's what the battle report says." Xiao Feiyu said.

The woman spoke: "He was not a warrior, so it is not unusual for him to die on the battlefield."

Xiao Feiyu stretched out his hand to catch the rainwater and made a fist. At this moment, he seemed to be holding something in his hand.

But I saw the rain slipping between my fingers again.

On this day, countless people are sad, and countless people are happy.
