The morning court session was over, and in the huge Qilin Palace, Ying Zheng was dealing with the piles of books and scrolls. He coughed from time to time, and a look of fatigue appeared on his face.
"Your Majesty…"
Zhao Gao came in from the side door, holding a bowl of lotus seed soup in his hand.
Seeing Ying Zheng coughing non-stop, Zhao Gao's eyes flashed, and he quickened his pace, came to Ying Zheng's side, and said softly,"
"Your Majesty! Young Master Hai saw that Your Majesty worked hard every day and felt resentful. He felt that he couldn't share the burden for Your Majesty, so Young Master Hai personally cooked a bowl of lotus seed soup…"
Ying Zheng waved his hand and stopped Zhao Gao from continuing.
When he heard about Huhai, a kind look appeared on Ying Zheng's face. He was very fond of Huhai and Ying Zheng.
He put down the book he was reading and was about to take a sip of the soup when he suddenly frowned and said coldly,
"Go and see who is making a ruckus outside the hall.”
"Yes!"
Zhao Gao quickly accepted the order and checked.
"Your Majesty, great joy…Great news, Feng An had won a great victory…What a great victory!"
Zhao Gao hurried back, his face full of joy.
......
A moment later, Ying Zheng was in the Qilin Palace. With trembling hands, he opened the news from Feng An City and read it carefully, word by word.
In the palace, all the officials were looking at Ying Zheng with their heads raised.
"Haha... Alright, alright…God bless Great Qin, good…"
After reading the good news, Ying Zheng's mood, which had been suppressed for a long time, was instantly lifted, and he could not help but burst out laughing.
After laughing, he looked around at the officials, raised the report in his hand, and said with a smile,
"Do you know why Feng An won?”
The officials looked at each other and shook their heads. How would they know?
Li Si stood up and said,"
"We don't know. Please tell us, Your Majesty.”
"Haha…"
Ying Zheng could not help but laugh out loud again. Without keeping him in suspense, he looked at the courier, waved his hand and said,"
"You came from Feng An, so you must know more about the situation than the good news. Tell me and my beloved ministers.”
"Yes."
The courier was rather reserved and after a moment of deliberation, he slowly said with lingering fear,
" King Li of the Xiongnu's Left Deer led an army of 200,000 to cross the collapsed Great Wall and head south…"
When the officials heard this, their expressions all changed!
They naturally knew the situation at the northern border of Qin country and how many troops were stationed there.
The 200,000 Xiongnu army was a disaster for the Northern Territory.
As expected, the postman's next words confirmed their thoughts.
"The Xiongnu vanguard army of 100,000 has successively broken through Yeyang, Shuofang, Wuyuan and other border cities."
"After the Xiongnu beasts broke through the city, they raped and plundered, burned, killed, robbed, and smashed. They did all kinds of evil…"
Hearing the courier's words, all the officials seemed to be in the same place, and their expressions were solemn.
" Following that, the 100,000 Xiongnu vanguard troops arrived at Feng An City. Feng An Prefecture Governor Wang Zhen led the defending troops to fight to the death. The 8,000 Feng An defending troops were able to hold off the 100,000 Xiongnu vanguard troops for four days…"
Ying Zheng was moved, and all the officials were moved.
What an iron-blooded prefect, truly admirable.
The courier continued," Unfortunately, the enemy outnumbered us. Just as Feng An City was about to fall, Gongzi Yu's Divine Armament descended from the sky. He led 5,000 Great Qin cavalry and defeated the Xiongnu vanguard army of 100,000 in one fell swoop…"
"What? Childe Yu is so brave?”
As soon as the courier finished speaking, many officials in the hall revealed looks of disbelief.
Even Ying Zheng found it unbelievable. After pondering for a moment, he concluded that the main credit for defeating the Xiongnu vanguard should be the Great Qin's iron cavalry.
Ying Zheng had absolute confidence in the combat power of the Great Qin's cavalry.
After listening to the postman's narration, Ying Zheng ordered his men to bring him to rest, and then began to discuss with Li Si, Meng Yi, and the others.
However, no one expected that the next morning, another piece of good news came to Xianyang City.
The courier who was responsible for delivering the good news galloped his horse and sent the good news to Xianyang Palace, Qilin Palace.
The same scene repeated itself in the Qilin Palace.
When they heard that Ying Yu was riding alone in front of the enemy army of twenty thousand, everyone was so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
When they heard that Childe Yu had shot an arrow from the west and killed King Li of the Xiongnu's Left Deer from 500 meters away, the entire hall cheered.
When they heard that Young Master Yu had killed Mao Dun in the middle of the 200,000-strong enemy army, they were stunned.
After the courier finished his explanation, the entire Qilin Palace was silent.
Everyone, including Ying Zheng, was stunned.
Was this still the unambitious Young Master Yu?
After being stunned for a moment, everyone reacted.
"We congratulate Your Majesty."
There was no kneeling ceremony in the Qin Dynasty. During court, the officials had their own positions. After greeting each other, they only needed to sit down to discuss the government affairs.
There were even fruits and snacks for the officials to enjoy. With Li Si leading the way, all the officials stood up and cupped their fists in congratulations.
"Alright."
Ying Zheng nodded. The great victory of Feng An had made him extremely excited.
How long had it been since Great Qin had swept through the six countries? It had been a long time since they had such a great victory. This was truly a blessing after a long drought.
At this moment, Ying Yu was chasing after the fleeing Xiongnu army.
The chase lasted for a whole day, until Ying Yu gave the order to stop the chase at the collapsed Great Wall.
At the same time, the system's mechanical voice sounded in Ying Yu's mind.
Ding-dong. The host has completed the mission: Arriving at the Great Wall and defeating the Xiongnu army was complete!
