Puppet emperor? Summon three thousand Xuanjia troops at the beginning

After resting for some days.

Gan Ning led his men back to the Daxi Dynasty’s headquarters.

This place is too far away from the Daqian Dynasty, so the governance here is still not much different from before, and is basically handled by the local people of Daxi. The only difference is that the governance here is now controlled by the court officials of Daqian.

Gan Ning led the strongest military force in Daxi and maintained the stability of the entire dynasty.

Gan Ning has been away for a long time now, so he must rush back as soon as possible. Otherwise, even though a few years have passed, there is no guarantee that someone in the dynasty will have some strange ideas, causing some unrest in the Daxi Dynasty, which would be an extremely bad thing for him.

After all, his participation in the battle against Da Rong was beyond his duties, while the stability of the Daxi Dynasty was his own responsibility.

However, this possibility is extremely small.

After these few years, both the common people and the important officials in the dynasty are very satisfied with the current situation in Daxi.

Even if there are still a few stubborn elements who want to create instability in the rule of the Daqian Dynasty, they cannot cause any big waves.

As for the merit of this battle, the Holy Lord will naturally make the decision.

Most importantly, he had to return to the dynasty to prepare food and fodder.

After experiencing this war, they knew very well that a war against the Dalong Dynasty would inevitably break out soon.

But now the weather is getting colder, so the conditions for sending troops are not met.

Once the weather warms up, war will inevitably begin.

At this time, Da Rong, on a fast horse, returned to the capital of the dynasty at high speed.

"Our army has been badly defeated. Nearly a million soldiers have been wiped out, and all the generals have died in battle!"

"Our army has been badly defeated. Nearly a million soldiers have been wiped out, and all the generals have died in battle!"

"Our army was badly defeated, nearly one million people..."

Roars resounded throughout the entire capital.

Hearing this noise, many people raised their heads in shock.

There was a look of disbelief in everyone's eyes.

How could an army of nearly one million be wiped out?

However, the messenger had no intention of explaining to them. He shouted all the way and rushed into the capital of the dynasty.

At this time, he no longer had any other thoughts in his mind, and only had the determination to tell the Holy Lord everything.

I worked so hard on this matter that I didn't sleep for seven or eight days. I am now at the end of my strength.

It's impossible to think about anything else.

Therefore, he did not notice at all that his actions would spread the news of Da Rong's current predicament throughout the dynasty.

When the King of Da Rong received the news, he was completely stunned.

The envoy had just returned not long ago, and the news he brought back made him look extremely ugly. At that time, he even had an impulse to send troops to attack the Daqian Dynasty immediately.

Because the damn King of Daqian had no intention of negotiating with them at all, his envoy was driven out by the other side as soon as he arrived.

This kind of blatant provocation was naturally unforgivable to him.

And from the beginning to the end, he never felt that the Dalong Dynasty had suffered a huge defeat that would have an impact on Dalong's status.

After all, although Da Rong did suffer some defeats in the previous war, it also caused considerable losses to the Daqian Dynasty. In such a situation, it can be said that both sides suffered losses.

In his opinion, Da Rong has a lot of heritage.

However, Daqian has experienced wars on many sides and now has no ability to develop at all. Under such circumstances, Daqian has no conditions to fight against them.

However, continuing the attack now does not bring much benefit to Da Rong, so he wants to negotiate with the other side.

Even the army that had been stationed near Daqian did not withdraw it.

Because he wanted to rely on this army to deter Daqian from acting rashly.

In the end, everything he did was completely meaningless. The King of Daqian simply drove him out without any room for negotiation.

This can be said to be a naked declaration of war.

When he first received the news, he was so angry that he almost killed all the messengers.

Even now, he was in a very bad mood.

But what did he hear now?

The nearly one million troops he stationed near Daqian were completely wiped out, and almost no one escaped.

At this moment, he felt a black screen before his eyes.

“That’s nearly a million troops!

And there are so many great generals, how could the whole army be wiped out!"

He roared, venting his anger in the hall.

But even though he tried to vent his anger, he found that the more he vented, the angrier he became.

The faces of the many court officials below were extremely grim.

Indeed, they originally had a lot of confidence, believing that even though the current Daqian Dynasty was indeed very dangerous, they did not need to worry too much about the Dalong Dynasty.

Even if we cannot attack that dynasty, we at least have the ability to compete with it.

But now?

The first wave of troops had already suffered heavy losses, and the subsequent reinforcements had now been completely wiped out.

The number of men they lost in this battle exceeded one million, even approaching two million.

Even if they had to face such a huge loss all at once, they would no longer be able to remain indifferent.

"Saint Lord, the most urgent task now is to quickly recruit soldiers and replenish the forces we have lost. Otherwise, if Daqian attacks us, we will be in big trouble."

A civil official stood up and spoke in an anxious voice.

But after hearing his words, a general immediately spoke up:

"You are a civil official, what do you know about fighting? Holy Lord, in my opinion, recruiting soldiers is a must. After all, our current losses are indeed huge and cannot be recovered in a short period of time.

But we don’t need to be too afraid of Daqian, even though the Daqian Dynasty rejected us and even dared to launch a surprise attack on our army.

But at least in the short term, we don't need to worry about their attack. Now the weather is getting colder and winter is about to come. Once we enter the coldest days of winter, those Daqian people will probably be unable to move.

According to the current situation, even if they have the ability to attack, it will probably be next summer by the time they reach our Da Rong.

With such a long period of preparation, I believe that Daqian is nothing at all.

Even if they are just being tough in words, the distance between the two major cities is not close anyway. "

He sneered and continued:

"It's nothing more than a verbal attack. Daqian has been involved in many wars and now the country is empty. It is simply unable to transform the resources it has obtained into strength.

Based on all the circumstances, I judge that even if the ruler of Daqian had ten times the courage, they would never dare to attack our Darong Dynasty."

Originally, the face of the King of Dalong was very ugly, and he was worried that Daqian might launch a strong attack.

After all, it is indeed a great opportunity to attack them now.

The loss of millions of troops is definitely not easy to make up for.

But now the general's statement made him feel somewhat recognized.

The wars between dynasties were all about interests.

Just like there is no benefit for their Da Rong Dynasty to continue the war with Da Qian, so he has no such idea at all.

The current situation in Daqian should be the same.

The Daqian Dynasty is nothing more than a verbal test force. In fact, it has no time to attack us. So even if we do nothing next, I am afraid that the Daqian Dynasty will not dare to launch an attack against them.

“My dear minister, what you said is absolutely right, but we still need to make the necessary preparations.

Once the notice is sent down, replenish the troops immediately. No, expand the army immediately. I will summon another million troops.

It would be fine if Daqian doesn't come next year, but if they dare to come, I will make sure they never have the chance to return!"

"The Holy Lord is wise!"

Many ministers stood up and applauded.

This is an excellent result.

However, there were still a few court officials who looked unhappy.

In their opinion, the Holy Lord's ideas were too simple.

Although from the perspective of growth, Daqian does not have the power to attack Damong now, but there are always unexpected things.

Since the Daqian Dynasty dared to force back their Darong's envoys so forcefully, and even dared to strangle their Darong's hundreds of thousands of troops, it was enough to prove that Daqian did have certain trump cards.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for that dynasty to develop to its current level in such a short period of time.

But they did not express their thoughts in the hall.

After all, these were just their speculations. There was no problem in telling the Holy Emperor about these speculations in private, but they had to be responsible for what they said in the court, so they did not speak easily.

However, many of them have already made up their minds to have a good talk with the Holy King about this matter, telling him all their concerns and taking adequate precautions to prevent Daqian from taking advantage of the situation.

After saying these things, Lord Dalong looked at the messenger who was reporting the military intelligence.

His eyes were filled with murderous anger.

Such a big thing should have been kept confidential throughout the process.

But now that the other party entered the city, they spread this information everywhere.

Now the whole world probably knows the news of Da Rong's defeat, and there is no possibility of blockade anymore.

The messenger lay on the ground trembling with fear the whole time.

Of course he knew what he had done before, although he did not think too much about it when he came. After all, all he had in mind at that time was to make sure to tell the Holy Lord the information.

But at that time, he was already at the end of his strength, so without any consideration, he told all the information.

He just hoped that if anything happened to him, someone would be able to accurately pass the information to the Holy Lord, so he had not thought about what the consequences would be if this information was exposed to everyone.

And he knew the result very soon.

The Great Rong Saint looked at him.

"Come here, drag this man away and behead him!

You dared to leak the urgent military information of Da Rong in the street, you should be killed without mercy!"

Hearing this, the messenger's body trembled violently.

He never thought that after risking his life to send back the message, he would get such a result.

But it was no use for him to regret now.

The big knife fell to the ground.

His head also fell to the ground.

Some court officials heard the screams outside the palace and felt helpless.

Holy Lord, the murderous intent is too strong.

Hundreds of thousands of troops of Da Rong were completely wiped out, and it can be said that their organization was broken up.

Under such circumstances, the other party was still willing to rush over to report the news, which was enough to prove his loyalty to Da Rong.

Although what the other party did did have extremely serious consequences.

But these things can't be kept secret for long.

Therefore, the messenger's merits and demerits can be said to offset each other, and at least his crime should not be punishable by death.

But it's too late to say anything now.

He watched as the ministers around him discussed with confidence what Da Rong should do next and how they should defeat Da Qian if he attacked.

The few sober ministers couldn't help but sigh.

No matter how many shortcomings Daqian has, they are just hearsay.

The reality is that they do not have enough intelligence about Daqian. They only know that Daqian has experienced many wars, but not only did it not disappear, but it became even stronger.

This dynasty...

I'm afraid it's more troublesome than I imagined.

But the Holy Lord and his men had not thought about these things at all. They were still thinking about how they could solve the problem without any mistakes.

If a war breaks out in the future, the entire Da Rong Dynasty will pay a heavy price for it.

Fortunately, the Holy King finally issued an order to recruit soldiers and strengthen the military generals.

I hope Daqian will not really appear on this land.

At this time, the generals from the eastern border of the Daqian Dynasty had already returned.

They only brought a small number of elite troops, and most of the troops were left at the border.

All the generals looked at each other.

Cheng Yaojin grinned, then said helplessly:

"Everyone, we are now in a relationship where we all prosper together and suffer together. Although we have indeed won this war, we have also committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and we have taken the initiative to mobilize troops against a foreign dynasty, which is a taboo.

If problems arise at that time, I hope everyone will not run back."

His eyes looked a little timid.

Once a problem occurs.

He can't handle it alone.

Only if everyone shares the Saint King's wrath together can this matter be suppressed.

Otherwise, whoever gets involved in this kind of thing will definitely be in trouble.

Bai Qi glanced at him.

This Cheng Yaojin is really smooth.

However, Bai Qi didn't care much about this.

"I can take care of this matter on my own."

His eyes were sharp, although this matter did constitute the crime of deceiving the emperor.

But this matter itself can be big or small.

hide?

There is no need for that at all.
