Chapter 588 (1/2)
”Xunzilin died in battle!”
”King wudaomen, the strong one died in battle.”
”Sun Bin, a military division of the Xia state, drowned 450000 of our army in a flood!”
”Hu Tianmin, the eldest prince, was captured. Among the 100000 soldiers under the prince's command, only more than 3000 escaped.”
“……”
Listening to the sad news of Ma Shuming, the emperor Hu Jianlong, as well as the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty, came across a bolt from the blue.
The shocking news shocked their bodies and widened their eyes, unable to believe their ears.
A few days ago, in this court hall, xunzilin was in high spirits and wanted to take the army with him to wipe out the Xia army.
The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as the emperor Hu Jianlong, felt that this victory would surely wipe out the damned Xia army.
However, a few days later, such bad news came.
A total of 550000 troops were almost wiped out.
Even the eldest prince Hu Tianmin has been arrested.
Veteran Ma Shuming is still telling the details in tears.
He told the story of the breach of the Bank of the Dashang river at the foot of Yulin mountain, as well as his thousands of remonstrations. He hoped that xunzilin would step back 50 Li, but he was eventually rejected by xunzilin.
The emperor Hu Jianlong's face turned white. The heavy blow made him feel the thunder in his mind. He couldn't hear what Ma Shuming was saying.
However, the man Dynasty Wenwu heard Ma Shuming's words, and became frightened.
First, he retreated to Yulin mountain and let xunzilin surround the mountain.
Then, another flood destroyed 450000 troops.
This must have been calculated by Sun Bin.
”Your Majesty, what should I do now?! Xia Guojun has killed him. ”
”Your Majesty. That Sun Bin is terrible. Now the Xia army has destroyed our 55 Shang army. In a short period of time, it controlled the three major states and provinces near Yanzhou. At present, one third of the territory of our commercial country will fall into their hands. ”
”Your Majesty, the Xia army is so powerful. It's only two months since we invaded Xia. Xia Guojun killed millions of people and horses in our commercial army. ”
”Under the banner of restoring Tianxia, the Xia army is going to destroy our Shang state! Your majesty, it's better to We cast Make peace
“……”
On the court, there was a voice of anxiety and uneasiness among the civil and military personnel of the whole dynasty.
Bao An, Minister of the Ministry of housing, also suggested that Hu Jianlong seek peace.
Immersed in his own shock and pain, Hu Jianlong suddenly heard someone say he was seeking peace. His body shook and raised his head.
His eyes swept to the hall, and finally landed on a middle-aged fat man in a hall robe.
”Bao An, do you want me to make peace?”
Hu Jianlong looks at Bao'an, Minister of the Ministry of housing.
Other people, along with the emperor Hu Jianlong's eyes, swept toward Bao'an.
They are worried.
In fact, many people have this idea in their hearts.
But what they want is not peace, but surrender.
Businessmen are cruel by nature.
They are cruel to the weak.
Even if it was a massacre, they took it for granted.
However, once they meet someone stronger than them, they will be afraid of being killed in the same cruel way.
The powerful Xia army had no other way but to surrender.
However, they are afraid to annoy Hu Jianlong and dare not say so.
But Bao An, Minister of the Ministry of housing, said it.
He's talking about peace.
