Ta ~~
Outside Chang 'an City, a soldier with several small red flags on his body was riding a fast horse and rushing toward the city wall of Chang' an City.
The guards guarding the city gate stared at the soldier with wide eyes!
"Red Feather, urgent report!"
"Red Plume has reported urgently!"
"Something big has happened!"
While the guards cried out in alarm, they did not dare to stop him in the slightest.
The Red Plume Emissary entered Chang 'an City without stopping. This was a street that led directly to the Royal Palace, a street used for the departure of the army or for emergency military affairs.
Ta…
The horse trod on the bluestone paved street, the sound of hooves extremely loud.
Soon, the red-feathered messenger crossed the street and arrived in front of a palace gate of Weiyang Palace.
The guards in front of the palace gate also did not dare to stop him and directly allowed him to enter the palace.
After Red Plume hurriedly dismounted his horse in front of the palace gates, he began to sprint around the palace with a tired expression!
As he quickly ran towards the Xuanshi Hall where the court assembly was taking place, he shouted loudly!
"Urgent report!"
"Urgent report!"
"Urgent report!"
……
Following his shout, all the eunuchs and guards who were blocking the way to the Xuanshi Hall hurriedly made way, not daring to block the way.
At the same time, they were also shocked and horrified. What had happened? Such an urgent report?
An urgent report came from the palace gate all the way to the Xuanshi Hall.
At this moment!
In the spacious main hall of the Xuanshi Hall!
The ministers were holding a court meeting. Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty was listening to the reports of the ministers below with his head propped up in exhaustion.
It could be seen that Emperor Jing of Han did not look well.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty…"
Seeing that Emperor Han Jing seemed to be a little absent-minded, the minister who spoke below could not help but look at Emperor Han Jing and call out softly.
"Oh? Continue!"
Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty came back to his senses and said to him.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The minister could only continue.
Many of the ministers in the hall saw Emperor Jing's expression and understood that the emperor was thinking about the border.
It had been many days since the Xiongnu envoys returned. The news of the Xiongnu troops retreating from the border should be reaching Chang 'an soon!
"Urgent report!"
"Urgent report…"
As the officials were thinking, they suddenly heard a voice coming from outside the hall!
All of a sudden, all the officials turned their heads to look outside the hall.
Very soon, they saw a red-feathered messenger with an exhausted expression rushing into the main hall.
Looking at him, all the ministers widened their eyes!
Red Feather reported urgently. Something big had happened!
Now, other than the border, there was no other major event. It was definitely a matter of the border!
Did the Xiongnu retreat?
No, that's not possible. It's impossible to send an urgent report about the Xiongnu retreating!
It must be something bigger!
While countless officials were thinking about this, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty was also staring at the red-feathered messenger coming towards the hall. His expression was somewhat tense.
Soon, the Red Plume Emissary entered the hall.
He hurriedly heaved a sigh of relief, then immediately bowed to Emperor Jing of Han and said loudly,
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the front. The Xiongnu army of 200,000 has launched an attack. Yunzhong County, Yanmen County, Shanggu County, and other counties at the border have all been fiercely attacked by the Xiongnu!”
Hearing the voice of the red-feathered messenger echoing in the hall, Emperor Jing of Han and all the ministers in the hall were shocked and revealed disbelief!
The Xiongnu had launched an attack!
Not only did the Xiongnu not retreat! He even launched an attack!
"Damn it!"
"Damn it!"
Emperor Jing of Han stood up abruptly and shouted angrily.
His chest was heaving up and down violently. He was so agitated that he coughed violently!
The hall was also filled with a loud uproar!
" How despicable!!"
"Damn Xiongnu people, our Han Dynasty just agreed to their conditions, but they went back on their words and attacked our Han Dynasty!!”
"This is really unforgivable!"
"The Huns can't be trusted, they can't be trusted!”
"We must not live in peace with the Xiongnu. We must fight! Revenge for my Great Han!"
"We must destroy them! Completely annihilate them! Revenge!"
"Let's fight them. If the border wants to be stable, we can only be stable by destroying them!”
"Mobilize the power of the entire country and lead the army to attack the Xiongnu and fight them to the death!”
……
All the officials in the court were furious. The Han Dynasty swallowed their humiliation and endured their hatred to fight for more time for peaceful development. However, the Xiongnu casually broke the agreement and trampled on the dignity of the Han Dynasty!
This was intolerable!
Some of the ministers who were originally in charge of peace had dark expressions on their faces. The Great Han Dynasty was indeed not strong now, and their chances of winning were indeed low. However, this did not mean that they could let the Xiongnu bully them again and again!
It was impossible to get along peacefully with such wolves and villains who went back on their words!
In the main hall, the ministers were extremely furious and clamored for a while. Then, one by one, they stood up and asked Emperor Jing of Han to start a war with the Xiongnu.
Emperor Jing of Han's expression darkened, and endless anger danced in his eyes.
As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he endured humiliation, hatred, and all kinds of pressure from the court and the people to agree to the Xiongnu's conditions.
However, the Xiongnu did not keep their word. They had just finished their discussion and started a war!
He had casually trampled on the dignity of the Han Dynasty and his dignity as the emperor!
Unforgivable!
He had to fight!
They had to go through war to wash away their hatred and humiliation. Only then could they break the pride of the Xiongnu and win back their dignity as the Great Han Emperor!
A superficial peace could not be exchanged for dignity!
Tian Meng was right. If his generation couldn't destroy the Xiongnu, then the next generation would. If the next generation couldn't destroy the Xiongnu, then the next generation would!
The Xiongnu would be destroyed by the Great Han sooner or later!
Emperor Jing of Han raised his head and stared at every minister in the hall with a deep and solemn gaze. He stared at these equally angry ministers and looked at them. His deep but loud voice sounded in the hall,
"I have decided!"
"From today onwards, the marriage policy will be abolished!”
"Fight!"
"Fight the Xiongnu to the end!"
Countless officials in the hall heard the deep voice of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. Hearing the determination in his voice, everyone looked at him!
At this moment, they were extremely shocked!
Was the marriage policy that had lasted for decades going to be officially abolished?
Was the Great Han going to go to war with the Xiongnu?
A few of the ministers felt that the war had come too suddenly and wanted to stand up and persuade Emperor Jing of Han to reconsider!
However, just as they took a step forward, they saw Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty suddenly draw his long sword from his waist. A sharp shout followed closely in the hall,
"Those who dare to talk about peace talks again will be treated like this case!!”
As he spoke, the sword suddenly slashed at the table beside him!
Bang!
With a loud bang, a table was cut in half by the sharp sword!
This scene shocked everyone in the hall!
