Xu Yannian said.
Instantly, the surroundings fell into silence.
To the younger generation of the Chu Country, they had never experienced the period when the Chu Country was weak.
From the moment they could remember, Su Che had been fighting everywhere.
It was the beginning of an era that belonged to the Chu Country!
In other words.
These young people had never experienced the fear of being dominated by the Xiongnu.
However, for those middle-aged or elderly people.
The Huns were once a nightmare that they could not get rid of.
Especially ten years ago, when the former emperor was critically ill and the empress had just ascended the throne.
The Xiongnu took the opportunity to attack and captured the Northguard Fortress, which was known as the number one fortress in Chu.
The imperial city was only 500 miles away from Northguard Fortress.
The loss of Northguard Fortress meant that the Imperial City was in danger.
Among the crowd, many of them had personally witnessed the incident.
At that time, a bunch of ministers suggested that the empress move the capital and abandon the Imperial City.
Although the imperial court did not publicly express their stance.
However, there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world.
This news still spread throughout the Imperial City.
For example, some rich and powerful merchants sold their assets and ran away immediately.
It couldn't be helped. The Xiongnu people were famous for their cruelty and bloodlust.
When everyone heard that the Xiongnu were about to attack, they were all terrified.
Therefore, during that period of time, the entire Imperial City was in a state of panic and chaos.
"People who haven't experienced that period of history might not understand. If it weren't for General Su, the Xiongnu would have already reached the Imperial City.”
"Where would our current life be?”
At this moment, an old man stood out from the crowd and said.
As someone who had personally witnessed that period of history, he had always remembered Su Che's contributions to the country.
So when Su Che got into trouble, everyone called him a traitor.
The old man didn't believe him at all.
"That's right. At that time, the entire Imperial City was terrified at the mention of the Xiongnu.”
"The rich sold their assets and fled to the south with their families.”
"But what about us poor people?"
"Our ancestors have been in the Imperial City for generations. If we were to escape to another place, it would be equivalent to starting over again. We would have no money, no houses, no fields, and nothing.”
"Moreover, a family of young and old might starve to death on the way.”
A man in his forties said from the crowd.
He remembered it very clearly.
At that time, his wife was pregnant, and the entire Imperial City was talking about the Xiongnu coming to attack.
He was extremely anxious.
However, his wife was pregnant and was about to give birth.
There was no way to escape.
Just as he was feeling hopeless.
Su Che volunteered to lead 30,000 troops to attack the Xiongnu!
At that time, Su Che had already made great contributions and was the youngest general in the history of Chu.
However, no one believed that he could use 30,000 troops to defeat 100,000 Xiongnu troops.
One had to know.
In the past, the war between Chu and the Xiongnu.
This time, Su Che's forces were less than one-third of the Xiongnu's.
Many ministers felt that he was sending his head to the grave.
Everyone was stunned.
Su Che actually did it.
After this battle, Su Che became famous.
From then on, a legendary era that belonged to him began!
"Indeed, if it weren't for Su Che, our Chu Country might have really been destroyed by the Xiongnu back then.”
Many people in the crowd nodded silently.
Because that was the truth.
She heard that many people still remembered Su Che's good deeds.
Xu Yannian was also extremely excited.
"Su Che has given everything for our Chu Country. I can't imagine how stupid and evil a person must be to do something that would disappoint him.”
It was equivalent to scolding the empress as well.
"Yes, Great General Su has done too much for our Chu Country. I don't believe that he colluded with an enemy country and intended to rebel.”
"Yes, Great General Su is loyal and righteous. If you say that others will rebel, I believe it. Great General Su's father and brother all died on the battlefield for the Chu Country. How could such a loyal family defect to the enemy and betray the country? This is ridiculous!"
"That's right. I feel that there must be treacherous officials and traitors behind this. We'll write ten thousand letters to plead for Her Majesty to investigate this matter thoroughly!”
“……”
After Xu Yannian's impassioned speech…
The surrounding commoners had already been completely mobilized by him.
The people were agitated and felt that Su Che had suffered injustice.
So, she wanted to seek justice for Su Che.
Dou Zhao looked at the scene in front of him and felt exhausted.
He knew.
The situation had completely gone out of control.
Moreover, it seemed to have exceeded his ability.
However, just as Dou Zhao was thinking about how to end this…
Suddenly, the sound of uniform footsteps rang in his ears.
Immediately after.
A sharp voice sounded.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
