"What did you say? If you lie about the military situation, your head will be used as a sacrifice!”
In Daliang City, in the royal palace of the Wei royal palace, King Jingdou of Wei was furious. He stood up from his bed, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at the messenger soldier below.
(P.S. 1: There was no dragon throne back then. The Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period had the kind of couch that could be used to lie down.)
(P.S. 2: According to the timeline of the official history, this should be the time of King Wei Jingyao. Wei Wuji should be dead, but Tianxing Jiuge mentioned that Lord Xinling Wei Wuji was still alive at this time. There is a conflict. I personally will deal with it according to King Wei Jingyao.))
The messenger soldier's expression was sorrowful. He did not care if King Wei Jingdou was angry or not. His voice was hoarse, but he still insisted on reporting the military situation."Your Majesty! It was absolutely true! Wei Wuzu had indeed lost! We're utterly defeated!"
"The soldiers of the Wei Dynasty are now under the command of Sikong One, Wei Yong! Your Majesty, Wei Yong is a traitor!”
"Wei Yong, that scoundrel, said that he wanted to open up the national treasury and spend a lot of money to buy grain and weapons to send to the Wei soldiers 'camp so that we could defeat the Qin army.”
"But! The Qin army has completely learned of our Wei soldiers 'defensive plans and the routes to receive rations. The Qin army bypassed all of our hidden sentries and took advantage of the time when we were not defending our camp to attack!”
"What I didn't expect was that the carriages weren't carrying grain or weapons, but a large number of Qin soldiers!”
"The Qin army coordinated from the inside and outside and killed a few generals as quickly as possible, causing our Wei soldiers to fight in chaos. We have no command at all. In our own camp, every Wei soldier has to face the siege of the Qin army several times over!”
"Every brother is fighting a bloody battle, but two fists are no match for four hands. We are not afraid of a head-on charge, but if we are surrounded and fought to the death, we really have no choice! The soldiers of Wei…were defeated like a landslide!”
"In the end, only this lowly one, Captain Dian Qing, and the last few brothers managed to escape…Other than that, the Wei brothers were almost completely annihilated!!”
The messenger soldier was a soldier of the Wei Dynasty, and he could not even cry. The cruel scene of his comrade dying in battle was constantly reflected in his mind, making him unable to sleep at night. It was extremely painful.
However, there was one more thing that he had to say no matter how painful it was!
He also wanted to clear things up with Wei Jingyao and seek justice for his brothers."Your Majesty! Captain Dian Qing told me that there must be a powerful spy in the court who sold all the information about the Wei army's camp!”
"Otherwise, with such a large number of Qin soldiers, it is impossible for them to sneak into our camp without being discovered by our hidden sentries!”
"Even the grain trucks are filled with Qin soldiers. It can be seen how vicious this person is! He had almost complete control over the transportation of grain for the Wei army.”
"This lowly one and Lord Dian Qing all think that it must be that scoundrel, Sikong One Wei Yong! He defected to the Qin country and betrayed the soldiers of Wei!”
" I'm afraid that the grain and equipment purchased by the national treasury at a high price have been transferred away by Wei Yongnas along with the gold and silver that he stole on the way to the camp at the frontline!”
"Your Majesty, please punish this dog thief severely!!”
King Wei Jingdou's fists were already clenched so tightly that they made a slight sizzling sound. He kicked over the table in front of him and said,"Men, go to Sikong Manor now and bring Wei Yong to me!”
"He has been lying in bed, claiming to be ill and not coming to discuss matters. A while ago, I even said that he was a loyal minister! In a critical situation, he still gathered food and grass for the soldiers of Wei! Really! You're really a sinner who has harmed Great Wei!"
"I treated him well, but he actually did such a dirty thing. He…deserves to die!”
King Jingdou of Wei was really about to explode from anger. The only Wei soldier that he could bring out was actually scammed by his own people just like that?
Do you know how much national power the soldiers of Wei have to invest in each year?!
Moreover, the huge amount of money in his treasury had been taken away by Wei Yong. How could King Wei Jingdou accept this? He was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
……
Why would Wei Yong wait for King Jingyao of Wei to send people to capture him? All the 'tributes' he had received over the years, as well as the huge sum of money he had used to trick King Wei Jingjiu into opening the national treasury, had already been transferred away.
It was not a problem to say that he was now as rich as half a country.
Wei Yong had already dressed up and sneaked out of Sikong One's mansion.
He was prepared to head to the inn provided by the Startling Salamander and escape with the help of the net. Wei Yong had even begun to daydream about how he would spend the rest of his life freely.
Wei Yong turned into an empty alley and went straight to the inn. Wei Yong was even more delighted. The feeling of toying with the king of a country was too exciting.
However, at this moment, the Startling Salamander appeared in front of him with the Startling Salamander Sword. Wei Yong hurriedly bowed and said,""Sir Startling Salamander actually personally came to escort me, I am extremely grateful.”
" I'm not sending you off. I'm just telling you that I don't like people who are not punctual, so I won't send you off."”
"What…Sir Startling Salamander, you…!!”Wei Yong was about to say something when he saw Xuan Jian walking out from behind the Startling Salamander with the black and white swords in his hands. His pupils immediately widened.
Many words were stuck in his throat and he could not say them at all.
"Hah, Sikong Wei, long time no see.”Xuan Jian intentionally dragged the two swords along as he walked. The sparks and metallic sounds that the two swords created when they slashed across the ground made Wei Yong lose his balance. He was so scared that he directly smashed his butt onto the ground.
His face was pale!
"Haha, Sikong Wei's reaction isn't like yours. By the way, the gold and silver that you spent so much effort to transfer, including Great Wei's treasury, have all been taken away by us. Don't thank us.”
"You!" Wei Yong angrily pointed at Xuan Jian. His finger was trembling in the air, revealing the fear and anger in his heart.
Startling Salamander turned around and left, wanting Xuan Jian to take revenge: "Be quick, we're leaving with Young Master now.”
"Don't worry, my sword has always been clean and neat.”
