Lord of Rebirth
Chapter 241 Nightmare
The good news from the frontier came again and again, and the credit made by General Wei is naturally worth adding.
Lieutenant General Wu Kang on the western front has joined forces with the troops leaving from Liangzhou, taking the entire western part of Beili Kingdom into his hands. Now, when General Wei gathers the eastern front, he will win a complete victory.
Just like what Sun Moyao had heard before, Huan Guo really sent a large army, but how could Huan Guo be the opponent of General Wei?
At the beginning, General Wei didn't pay attention to them. Everyone thought that it was almost a very simple matter to deal with Huan's army.
But just when everyone was waiting for the good news, an urgent report was delivered to the palace overnight.
At that time, Sun Moyao was helping Shen Xi to lie down to sleep, but Lu Jufeng hurriedly knocked on the door to come in, his tone seemed to be a little fearful.
Shen Xi was about to get up to see what made Lu Jufeng anxious, when he saw Sun Moyao's face changed.
"It happened..." Shen Xi hurried up and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lu Jufeng glanced at Shen Xi, his expression was more than anxious, he was about to cry, this sad expression was really hard to see from a steady prime minister.
On the contrary, Sun Moyao turned around first, he stretched out his arms to hug Shen Xi, and said, "Lie down here, I will go to the palace with Ju Feng to meet the emperor, if there is anything else, wait for me to come back!"
For a moment in Shen Xi's mind, he wanted to go to see the emperor with them, and he was too upset to be kept in the dark about what happened.However, it was the prince who wanted him to stay here, so of course he would be obedient and stay here waiting for them to come back.
"My lord, this way please."
Some people are destined to have no sleep this night.
The emperor stood in the hall, and the urgent report in his hand made him fidget in place, while the postman who delivered the urgent report knelt aside and didn't even dare to breathe out.
At the same time, Wei Zhenhai, the second son of the Wei family, has also entered the palace.
The prince and Wei Zhenhai met at the entrance of the palace, glanced at each other, and were called in together.
"Your Majesty." On the contrary, Lu Jufeng spoke first, "Where is the urgent report?"
The emperor glanced at him, and handed over the urgent report with his hands.
The heads of the prince, the prime minister, and General Wei got together.
But I saw what was written in the urgent report, "General Wei was attacked at night by Huan Guojun's army. In order to cover the army, his life and death are unknown."
"What, what is unknown?" Wei Zhenhai seemed to feel that he could no longer understand the words, "What is written on it!"
Sun Muchen glanced at him, "It's just that life and death are unknown, don't you understand that?"
Wei Zhenhai's footsteps wobbled, and he almost lost his footing, but fortunately, Sun Moyao supported him.
"My brother...my brother..." Wei Zhenhai became incoherent, "How is it possible? How is it possible? Being attacked by surprise? Is it possible?"
Even Lu Jufeng didn't believe it, even if he was killed, Wei Zhenyun went out for so many years, fought countless battles, large and small, and even suppressed bandits at night, how could he be successfully attacked by Huan's army?
Before General Wei led troops to attack Huan Guo's army, it was a success story. For everyone, driving away Huan Guo's army was a matter of course.
But now...
Sun Moyao also read the urgent report, "Your Majesty, when did this urgent report happen?"
"Five days ago." Sun Muchen said coldly.
Lu Jufeng suddenly collapsed. He was supporting Wei Zhenhai just now, but now he fell to the ground by himself.
"Prime Minister!" Wei Zhenyun and Sun Moyao rushed to help him.
Seeing this, the palace people quickly brought chairs over to let Lu Jufeng have a good rest.
Lu Jufeng covered his forehead, no one could see his eyes, but he knew that his eye sockets must be red.
"A large army has been sent to support." Sun Muchen said this almost expressionlessly, "Now we can only wait for the follow-up news. I don't know if they can find General Wei."
"How did this happen?" Sun Moyao frowned.
"I heard..." Sun Muchen glanced at the post soldiers who came to pass the order, "The remnants of the Huan Kingdom want to die with our army, and the sneak attack is not counted, and they even set fire to the mountain..."
Just from these few words, one can hear how tragic the situation was at that time.
As for what kind of person Wei Zhenyun is, the few of them probably know better than the emperor.
He must be at the end of the battle, and he will be the last one to come out when the army escapes smoothly. If he sets fire to the mountain, will Wei Zhenyun be the first to escape?Not at all.
Everyone's heart was filled with a bad idea, and if Wei Zhenyun hadn't been called, the deputy general would not have dared to send such a piece of news to the capital.
The emperor must have believed it.
"I don't believe it!" Wei Zhenhai said still there, "My brother is so powerful, how could he die in the hands of a small country like Huan?!"
Sun Muchen walked in front of him, "General Wei, please prepare for this."
"What preparations?" Wei Zhenhai was not afraid of facing the emperor at this time, "What preparations do you need? There is no way my brother is in trouble! This urgent report must be fake!"
Sun Moyao stopped between the two of them, no matter how sad Wei Zhenhai was, the person in front of him was the emperor, if he lost control of his emotions and beat the emperor up, it would be bad.
Sun Muchen stood back very cooperatively, "I told you to get ready, this urgent report has been delivered, do you think there will be any good news at dawn tomorrow?"
On this side, both Wei Zhenyun and Lu Jufeng showed expressions of fear, as if they would really hear that they had found Wei Zhenyun's body at dawn, and they didn't even hope for dawn.
But the sun will rise and the sky will be bright.
The few people who hadn't slept all night finally received the news that Wei Zhenyun had died in the frontier battle.
"Where's the corpse?" The only one who could speak was probably the emperor.
The postman who delivered the message knelt on the ground and said, "I found it."
Hearing this, the dust settled.
Probably, everyone present was thinking, how could General Wei Zhenyun die in such a sneak attack for so many years on the battlefield?
However, news came one after another, saying that General Wei had successfully withdrawn with his army at that time. Who knew that the Huan Guo army was so frantic that they set fire to the mountain in the middle of the mountain. General Wei's army was at a disadvantage, so not only the general, but the two elite armies following General Wei were also wiped out in the fire...
Unexpectedly, the invincible army would be damaged in such a situation because of a wildfire, and Huan's army also died in the flames of war.
Comparing the two armies, it is natural that Huan State's army is completely annihilated, but for Shun State, losing General Wei Zhenyun is like losing the entire army.
Before the supporting army sent by the emperor arrived, those lieutenant generals who had followed General Wei had already led their troops to the territory of Huan State, and they wanted to avenge the general.However, Huan's army came out with all their pockets, and they could not resist for a long time.
The emperor probably guessed this, and quickly sent envoys to appease the army, and negotiated with Huan Guo.The emperor's meaning is also very clear, if Huan Guo is unwilling to agree to their conditions, then the army will be overwhelming, and they are not afraid that they will not be able to defeat Huan Guo, who has no troops.
Although it seemed that General Wei's life and death was used as a bargaining chip, but at this moment, he could no longer use the people of Huan Kingdom as the object of venting.This point was exactly what Lu Jufeng urged the emperor to do.
Afterwards, Lu Jufeng passed out in the hall and did not wake up for three days.
Was hurriedly sent back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shen Xi was also up all night, seeing Lu Jufeng being carried back, he thought it was Lu Jufeng's poor health, turned around to look for Xiao Feng'er.
After Xiao Feng'er saw it, she said that the prime minister was depressed because of excessive grief, and asked what happened.
The person who sent the prime minister back said, "General Wei died in battle."
Now, it was Shen Xi and Xiao Feng'er who froze in place, at a loss.
"General Wei?!" Shen Xi stood there blankly, muttering to himself, chanting General Wei's name over and over again, but couldn't say anything else.
On the contrary, Xiao Feng'er who was on the side took the lead to react, "Where is Mrs. Wei? Does Mrs. Wei know about this?"
Shen Xi was stunned for half a second, then quickly said, "You are here to watch the prime minister, I will go to Wei's house once."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng'er grabbed him, "No, I'll go to Mrs. Wei, I'm worried about her..."
Shen Xi nodded and said, "Thank you."
Xiao Feng'er hurried to the front, and You Anjia pulled You Feng over on the back.
Yoanga asked cautiously, "What happened? Where is my wife?"
Shen Xi looked at him, and sat down on the stone bench beside him, "Doctor Xiao went to find Mrs. Wei, you know General Wei..."
"I know." You Anjia nodded, and pulled You Feng to sit down beside Shen Xi, "Is that the general who killed Beili Kingdom? I heard my wife said about him, tsk, amazing! The prime minister also Say he is amazing! What's wrong?"
Shen Xi sighed, and told the news he just learned.
You Anjia was surprised, but she was not as sad and angry as Shen Xi, "Oh... what a pity!"
Shen Xi glanced at him, nodded and sighed.
Even so, Shen Xi still didn't believe this news, even if it was true, he didn't want to accept it.However, rationality made him accept this reality with great pain in his heart.
You Feng, who was sitting next to them, also kept silent at this time, not to disturb them, as if he knew that they had lost a very important friend.
Shen Xi sighed softly again, although he understood that in life, life, old age, sickness and death are inevitable, but he never thought that he would suddenly appear in front of him, which was really hard for him to accept.
Just as he was thinking, the sound of porcelain breaking suddenly came from the room.
Shen Xi and You Anjia looked at each other, and rushed into the room to check the situation.
I saw Lu Jufeng resting on the table with one hand, and caressing his forehead with the other. Naturally, what he smashed was a teacup.
"Don't move!" Shen Xi said, "Sit down quickly, why don't you call me?"
Lu Jufeng smiled bitterly at him, "It's okay, I'll just take a sip of water, and I'll be entering the palace later, I probably have a lot of things to do now..."
