Chapter 450: The Huns were defeated, but the general is still grateful! The King of Zhao has a brill

【After the Xiongnu army arrived at the city, they surrounded the city first and then attacked it as usual. 】

【After all, the troops were exhausted after such a long journey. 】

【According to past experience, the Zhao army did not have the courage to leave the city, and would only defend the city. 】

【However, you, the new commander, did not play by the rules. 】

【As soon as the 200,000 Xiongnu cavalry arrived at the city, the Zhao army, armed with shields and spears, rushed out like a tide, killing the Xiongnu by surprise. 】

【The Xiongnu were all stunned. 】

【Don't the people of Zhao know that cavalry can fight several times the infantry? 】

【The northern border defenders, at most, did not exceed 400,000. What could they use to fight the Xiongnu? 】

【But then they were overjoyed. Since the Zhao people took the initiative to seek death, they took the opportunity to break through the city gate and go south to plunder more food, treasures and beauties. ]

[Then, the Xiongnu were hit head-on...]

[These 300,000 Zhao troops seemed to have been reborn in just one year. They were not only well-equipped, but also had doubled their strength.]

[The Xiongnu cavalry had no advantage in front of them.]

[The battle lasted only two hours, and more than half of the Xiongnu were killed or wounded, which made the national teacher Yingzhi personally take action.]

[However, with Zhao Gongwang around, he, the new heaven-level commander of the army, could not gain any advantage at all.]

[Half a day later, most of the 200,000 Xiongnu cavalry were killed or wounded.]

[The ground was full of gullies, and it was difficult for the Xiongnu to escape.]

[In the end, only more than 10,000 remnants were left, and they successfully escaped under the escort of the national teacher Yingzhi.]

[On the Zhao side, more than 40,000 people were killed or wounded, but they almost wiped out the 200,000 Xiongnu cavalry. There is no doubt that it was an unprecedented victory!]

[Zhao Gongwang's old face was smiling like a chrysanthemum. ]

[With so many elite Xiongnu soldiers killed, the border can be stable for at least 20 to 30 years! ]

[The news of this battle soon spread throughout the Central Plains, causing Zhao's reputation, which had dropped greatly after the Battle of Changping, to rise again. ]

[You have won two great victories in a row, and are also praised by the outside world as the Holy Infant from Heaven and the God of Zhao's Army. ]

[The King of Zhao was overjoyed and ordered you to return to Handan to reward you again. ]

[You thought this time would be a routine reward like the last time. ]

[Unexpectedly, the Daluo Dongguan method began to warn you. ]

[Good guy, is there something fishy about this reward? ]

[However, it may not be the King of Zhao's problem. ]

[It is also possible that someone wants to attack you on the way back. ]

[So, you asked Zhao Gongwang to send you to Handan. ]

[For Zhao Gongwang, this is just a piece of cake. ]

[Unexpectedly, he said that the Xiongnu was defeated, and in order to prevent Yingzhi from coming to retaliate, he could not leave the border for the time being. ]

[A round trip would only take a dozen breaths for him, a heavenly-ranked military commander. ]

[You obviously don't believe his poor excuse. ]

[It seems that something has changed within the Zhao royal family. ]

[Since Zhao Gongwang doesn't want to see you off, you don't rush to leave, but let the spies in the palace go and find out what happened first. ]

[There are thousands of people in the palace who practice his transformation into a saint, and several of them are Zhao Wang's confidants. ]

[Zhao Wang himself did not practice, not because he doubted anything, but because he was addicted to sensual pleasures most of the time and had no time to practice at all. ]

[Soon, a secret report about Zhao Wang was sent to you. ]

[Okay, okay, so this is the plan! ]

[After reading it, a cold light flashed in your eyes. This Zhao Wang has already chosen to die! ]

[The next day, you said goodbye to Zhao Gongwang and went to Handan with only a small group of people. ]

[When you left, the people of the northern border saw you off for ten miles, with tears in their eyes, saying: The general's kindness is not over yet! ]

[The soldiers of the northern border who saw you off also shouted: Loyalty! ]

[You waved and saluted, lamenting that there are still many grateful people among the people. ]

[Going all the way south, halfway, a middle-aged man in a black robe wearing a half-golden mask blocked the road and attacked you. ]

[This man is the leader of the Yin-Yang family - Donghuang Taiyi. ]

[The left protector Xinghun under his seat died at your hands. ]

[You didn't seem surprised by his appearance, but just took out the Red Shadow Sword to barely resist. ]

[When your followers died and only the female generals were left, you seemed to be in despair, the ground-level commander of the Zhao royal family - Fenglei Hammer Zhao Wei suddenly appeared, drove away Donghuang Taiyi, and saved you. ]

[After that, Zhao Wei escorted you all the way into Handan City. ]

[When you met the King of Zhao, he first asked you about your well-being, and then rewarded you greatly, and named you the Lord of Shenwu. ]

[Lord is the highest rank among the seven hegemonic countries, only below the King. I don’t know how many people strive for it. ]

[Bai Qi is the Wu’an Lord of Qin. ]

[The reward from the King of Zhao is very generous. ]

[However, the next moment he showed his true colors and said that in order to strengthen the relationship, he was willing to take your mother Zhao Yuzhi as his wife. What do you think? ]

[The concubine system of Zhao is one queen, three wives, and nine concubines. ]

[The wife is only below the queen, and the King of Zhao is relatively sincere... bullshit! ]

[Want to be your father, is he worthy? ]

[When you learned of the King of Zhao’s plan, you had already marked his nine clans with a death sentence. 】

【The reason why he wanted to marry Zhao Yuzhi was partly because of her beauty, but more importantly, it was out of consideration for profit. 】

【After all, you are so talented at such a young age. He is afraid that he will not be able to control you in the future, so he will think of such a "clever trick". 】

【And Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang family was also invited by him, in order to give you a warning on the way back and let you understand the king's great grace. 】

【To put it bluntly, he wants you to be loyal. 】

【As for your grievances with the Yin-Yang family, with the intelligence power of Zhao State, it can be easily found out. 】

【If the King of Zhao dares to do this, he must discuss it with Zhao Gongwang first. 】

【Zhao Gongwang's attitude before leaving has already shown that he supports this matter. 】

【You are fighting bloody battles on the front line, but the king is thinking about your mother in the rear. 】

【It's so chilling, so damn chilling! 】

【You obviously just want to be a good person, but the dark world always wants to force you into a desperate situation. 】

【However, you can't turn against him at this time, you need a stronger force. 】

【You said that you need to go back and discuss this with your mother, and the King of Zhao said that this is what he should do. 】

【Then, he asked Zhao Wei to send you to General Shenwei's mansion. 】

【Back at the mansion, Zhao Yuzhi cried and hugged you again. It was obvious that King Zhao had already told her about this matter. 】

【She and the previous King of Langya were in love and had no intention of remarrying, but for your safety, she expressed her willingness to commit herself to King Zhao. 】

【You told her not to have such stupid ideas and that you would handle the matter properly. 】

【Zhao Yuzhi asked again, what should we do now? 】

【You replied with one word: delay! 】

【If it delays for a few months, King Zhao will call you dad. 】
