"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 195
In Lu'an Town, a battle flag embroidered with tulips is fluttering in the wind, and countless soldiers in bright armor are coming in and out, and smoke is rising from the kitchen. They are cooking.
The soldiers and horses of this route are from the Qinwang troops of the Yujinhua family in Hezhong Province, and the commander is a Marquis.
? Chen Ziang led his troops into the Gyeonggi Province, threatening the safety of the capital, so the emperor issued an edict to King Qin.
All the way, King Luqin's soldiers and horses rushed towards Gyeonggi Province from all directions, and the Yujinhua family naturally would not let go of such an opportunity to show their faces.
The Yujinhua family assembled about 9,000 soldiers and horses, and purchased the most luxurious equipment, just to show off their demeanor in this battle of King Qin.
After all, their Yujinhua family is a well-known big family in Hezhong Province, and now it is the natal family of the Crown Princess, so they are naturally loyal to the court.
After all, as long as the crown prince becomes the Great Treasure, the crown princess will naturally become the queen, and their Yujinhua family will then be able to enter the core of power.
Although they came to support the prince, and the 9,000 soldiers and horses were luxuriously equipped, but the leader of the army, Lord Hou, knew nothing about military affairs. Knowing that the Qinghe army was powerful, they did not dare to go up and fight the Qinghe army.
After all, it was rumored that Chen Ziang's army had more than 100,000 troops, which was not enough for the opponent's teeth.
Therefore, the Marquis of the Yujinhua family was also very slippery. He stopped in Lu'an Town, planning to wait for the arrival of the other King Qin soldiers before following him to pick peaches.
"Report to Lord Hou, the Governor of Gyeonggi Province is asking to see you."
When the Marquis of the Yujinhua family was drinking with two beautiful beauties in Lu'an Town, an officer strode in.
"kindness?"
Hearing that the Governor of Gyeonggi Province asked to see him, the Marquis also frowned involuntarily.
"What did he come to see me for?"
Lord Hou, who was drinking and having fun, was also taken aback when he heard that the Governor of Gyeonggi Province asked for an audience.
"Master Hou, he said he has something to see." The officer replied.
Although the Marquis of Wine and Meat did not know the Governor of Gyeonggi Province, but when he heard that the other party had something important to do, after a little thought, he ordered someone to invite the Governor of Gyeonggi Province in.
Soon, the disgraced Governor of Gyeonggi Province was invited into Lu'an Town. He was finally relieved to see those soldiers and horses with bright armor.
But thinking of his 30,000 soldiers and horses being annihilated, the governor, who was still high-spirited before, is also full of depression at the moment.
"The next official pays homage to Lord Hou."
Although he is the governor of Gyeonggi Province, he has to lower his stance in the face of the powerful Lord Hou of the Yujinhua family.
Anyway, he is also a majestic Governor-General, and this Marquis is also very courteous. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he let people watch.
"I said, Lord Governor, why are you in such a mess?"
After the governor took his seat, the potbellied Lord Hou was also very curious when he saw the disheveled and dusty governor.
"To tell you the truth, Lord Hou, I just led my troops to fight against the bandit army Chen Ziang's troops, and I just got off the battlefield"
"How is the battle going?"
The governor sighed and said: "The 30,000-odd troops in my army were wiped out, and I managed to escape with only a small number of cavalry to break through."
After hearing the words of the Governor of Gyeonggi Province, Lord Hou also took a deep breath. The entire army of 30,000 people was wiped out, so Chen Ziang must be too fierce.
"How did you lose so badly? The bandit army really has hundreds of thousands of soldiers as rumored?" The Marquis was also frightened, and hurriedly asked.
"The rebel army fighting us is only more than 10,000 Qingqi. As for the exact strength of the rebel army, it is not yet known."
Hearing that the governor's 30,000 soldiers and horses, who had killed more than 10,000 Qingqi, were all annihilated, Hou Ye's face became even more ugly. Isn't his 5,000 soldiers really not enough for the opponent's teeth.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zi'ang's troops were so powerful that the Hou Ye rolled his eyes and thought quickly.
After all, Lu'an Town is too close to the official road, so he thinks it is better to go a little farther and set up camp to be safer.
"I heard that you have something important to do, isn't it why?"
Facing the defeated general, the Governor of Gyeonggi Province, the Marquis of the Yujinhua family was really not interested, and he didn't bother to ask, and asked directly about his intention.
"I'm here to give credit to Master Hou."
The Governor of Gyeonggi Province saw the potbellied Lord Hou, and after tidying up his clothes, he pretended to be calm and said.
After hearing these words from the Governor of Gyeonggi Province, Hou Ye couldn't help showing a sneer.
"You can't protect yourself, and you dare to say that you have given me the credit? Could it be that you think I'm a three-year-old child, so you can deceive me?!"
Lord Hou stared at the Governor of Gyeonggi Province, snorted coldly, and his eyes became unkind.
"How dare an inferior official deceive Lord Hou."
Seeing the dissatisfaction on Lord Hou's face, the Governor of Gyeonggi Province hurriedly waved to the back.
The officer surnamed Yan who had been following him opened the package in his hand, and a bloody head rolled out.
"ah!"
Seeing the bloody head, everyone in the hall was startled, and the two beauties screamed in horror.
"what do you mean?!"
Lord Hou's complexion also sank, staring at the Governor of Gyeonggi Province and asking coldly.
The governor hurriedly explained: "Master Hou, don't panic. This is the head of the cavalry general of the bandit army. This is the credit I gave to Lord Hou."
Since he, Lord Hou, led 9,000 troops armed to the teeth, he has never dared to go up to fight the Qinghe army because he was afraid of Chen Ziang's fierce name, so he has no record.
If he can get the head of this rebel general, he will not only have more face among the soldiers and horses of the kings, but also be rewarded by the court.
After thinking of this, the complexion of the potbellied Lord Hou also softened, and he looked at the Governor of Gyeonggi Province much more pleasing to the eye.
"Are you sure this is the head of the bandit cavalry general?" Hou Ye asked.
The governor hurriedly replied: "It is confirmed."
"You didn't take it yourself to ask for credit, why did you give it to me?"
The Marquis of the Tulip family also knew that there was no pie in the sky, so he was not in a hurry to give this gift, but turned his eyes to the governor again.
"Master Hou, I have admired you for a long time"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, and tell me what you need me to do." Lord Hou interrupted the governor.
The governor laughed awkwardly and said, "Master Hou, you also know that I lost 30,000 troops in this disastrous defeat. Once His Highness the Crown Prince blames you, I will have to move my head. Please trouble Lord Hou to help His Highness the Prince." Say sorry for me."
The governor originally wanted to take the head directly to atone for his crimes, but he felt that the head was not enough, so he took this curvy path of saving the country.
Because the Yujinhua family is the natal family of the Crown Princess, as long as they are willing to speak for themselves, the Crown Prince will have to give some face.
"You know, I'm just the uncle of the Crown Princess, this"
"Master Hou, it's hard work for you to help the capital. As the governor of Gyeonggi Province, I specially prepared a million gold" The governor had no choice but to increase his bargaining chip.
"Just one million gold?"
"No, no, no, three million gold, I just made a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue."
"Oh, the governor is so polite."
This Lord Marquis regards money as his life, and when he heard that the governor wanted to give him three million gold and a share of credit, he was also very happy.
Hou Ye said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will report the truth to His Royal Highness, in order to prevent the enemy from advancing towards the capital, our two armies joined forces to kill more than 70,000 people under the general of the bandit army, and we also lost 30,000 people." Remain."
After hearing this, the Governor, who had always been uneasy, finally felt relieved. With the help of the Tulip family to testify, his fiasco was finally over.
"Have you eaten yet?"
"I have been fighting with the bandits all the time, but I haven't eaten yet."
"Come here, prepare a banquet and surprise the governor."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, sir." (Remember this site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
