Chapter 434 Urgent Battle Report

Of course Hong Yu knows whether Chu Qinghuang is stupid or not.

He was just not sure whether what Duanmu Wuyou said was true or false. Hong Yu couldn't accurately calculate everything that happened to this woman - including her words and deeds, her fate, and what she said.

Deep down he knew what this meant, but he didn't want to accept his fate.

He felt he could still struggle.

However, in the final analysis, this matter is only a matter between the two of them, and family and country affairs are matters that concern the world.

Originally, the Western Qi ministers and the Northern Xinjiang envoys thought that Princess Duanmu came for peace between the two countries. No matter what the people in the Northern Xinjiang court were thinking, on the surface at least they yearned for peace.

However, no one expected that the battle report would come so quickly and suddenly.

On the morning of the second day of the twelfth lunar month, the day after Duanmu Wuyou arrived in Xiqi, Chu Qinghuang was discussing matters with the ministers in the court. A piece of urgent information from Mianbei 800 miles away was delivered to the imperial capital by fast horse.

"Your Majesty!" The visitor knelt down and presented the battle report, "The war in Mianbei is critical. The prince of Northern Xinjiang has personally led 30,000 cavalry and 100,000 infantry. They have arrived at the border and are attacking our border officers to investigate. He has ordered the Western Qi Dynasty to wait for half a month. Please hand over the matter to the Emperor of Northern Xinjiang and ask your Majesty to make a decision!"

The ministers were surprised: "Is the war in danger?"

"How could it be?!"

"Why is it so sudden? Isn't the princess from Northern Xinjiang here to get married?"

"Northern Xinjiang actually mobilized 30,000 cavalry? I wonder if General Qi can handle it?"

Chu Qinghuang sat on the dragon chair, her expression unchanged: "What did General Qi say?"

"General Qi ordered him to inquire about Her Majesty the Queen's intentions. If Her Majesty wants the territory of Northern Xinjiang, he will take this opportunity to invade Northern Xinjiang and strive to destroy Northern Xinjiang within two years."

As soon as this statement came out, the whole court was in an uproar.

"So, the urgent intelligence is just to send battle reports, but can General Qi actually handle it?"

"It turns out that General Qi is already confident." The ministers breathed a sigh of relief, "It was really a false alarm."

"Northern Xinjiang has repeatedly provoked them. They should be taught a lesson." King Rong snorted coldly. "If we can take the opportunity to capture a few cities in Northern Xinjiang, it will be a perfect response to their demonstrations."

Chu Qinghuang quickly made a decision: "As long as Northern Xinjiang takes the lead in sending troops - no matter what reason or method they provoke the war, whether it is upright or conspiracy, let Qi Ling immediately respond."

"yes!"

Although it will take a long time for the imperial edict to reach the border, General Qi has made the most thorough arrangements. He will take action when the time comes to defend and will not sit still and wait for death.

"Once the two countries go to war, the northern border will not be destroyed and the war will continue." Chu Qinghuang said coldly, "Tell Qi Ling that I will prepare enough reserve military pay, food and grass, and bows and crossbows for him, so that he can devote himself to the war. , don’t have any worries.”

"yes!"

"Tell all the soldiers that after the war, rewards will be given based on merit. Those who show bravery can be promoted beyond the rank. Military ranks, gold and silver, beauties... everything you want!"

"I receive the decree from my humble position! Her Majesty the Queen is mighty!"

"Retreat from the court!" Chu Qinghuang stood up and said coldly, "Masters from the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of War will follow me to the imperial study to discuss matters."

"I obey the order!"

When the news reached Duanmu Wuyou's ears, she frowned and her tone was cold and full of sarcasm: "The prince is sending troops?"

"Yes." The personal maid replied respectfully, "I have just sent an urgent battle report this morning. Her Majesty the Empress of Xiqi has ordered the war to begin. She has issued a decree on the border and will not stop until the Northern Border is destroyed."

Duanmu Wuyou wiped the dagger in his hand and was silent for a long time. "It is unforgivable for heaven to tolerate the death of a king and his son in the Northern Territory."

The maid's heart palpitated and she lowered her head unconsciously.

"Forget it, these things have nothing to do with me." Duanmu Wuyou put the dagger back into its sheath. The handle of the dagger sheath was inlaid with a pure ruby. It was immediately obvious that it was valuable. "Go tell those ministers, just say His Royal Highness sent troops at this time because he deliberately wanted to kill us. Now that the New Year is approaching and the twelfth lunar month of winter is approaching, I am too fragile to travel long distances and will not return to Northern Xinjiang for the time being. "

The maid took the order and turned to leave.

Duanmu Wuyou narrowed his eyes and stared at the dagger in his palm, his expression cold and distant, revealing a kind of world-weary impatience.

I really want to commit suicide.

After thinking about it, she couldn't figure out what she was doing in this world. There were so many annoying people, so many stupid people, and she was surrounded by a bunch of brainless rats... Every time she wanted to kill someone, she was always unable to do so.

This sickly body is like a piece of trash.

Duanmu Wuyou walked to the window and sat down, looking out the window without saying a word. He couldn't help but wonder if the prince of Northern Xinjiang had been kicked on the head by a horse's hoof?

Now is a good time to ascend the throne, but he is actually stupid enough to send troops to conquer Xiqi? Do you want to prove that you are a great hero and a filial son, and to save your father, you will conquer the world in anger?
