Chapter 325 The Queen Mother is here with a big belly(2/3)
"An Le's method is really clever..."
He couldn't help but sigh.
Dragon Vein Worms have become his consumables.
After that, every time the country's fortunes surged, he could benefit from it and continue to squeeze the little bugs.
"Next time... Pure Love Gu will be promoted to the fifth level Gu."
Zhao Thief can't wait for more victories.
"Boom!"
A loud noise woke Zhao Cuo up!
He looked up and saw that the towering city wall finally collapsed and opened a gap under the impact of cannonballs and boulders.
"General Zhao! We will leave ten thousand people to control Yucheng, and the rest will bring heavy siege equipment to pursue."
Young Master Zhao ordered without hesitation.
"Fight all the way to Huainan Royal City!"
"Got the order!"
The capital of Huainan Kingdom is not far from the border.
The Zhao thief captured the royal city during the Queen Mother's southern tour.
This time there was continuous heavy rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and Emperor Yongzhao took back the lost land again, but this time it still fell into his hands.
"Report! The Military Counselor General is already at war with the rebels and is working with Vice General Wang to launch an outflanking campaign."
"Probe again and report again!"
Zhao Cuo said calmly.
He knew that it was impossible to capture the hundreds of thousands of people in the hands of the deposed emperor.
There is no terrain suitable for siege here. If they really want to run, they can break out of the siege no matter where they go.
"In this battle, we must cripple the rebels! They will not be able to fight again in a short period of time."
This battle lasted from early morning to dusk.
After Emperor Yongzhao withdrew his troops, he suffered heavy losses due to their front and rear attacks, but he still broke through and entered Anyang Pass.
There was another shelling. After they broke through Guancheng, the rebels had long disappeared. They had obviously retreated again and again, so the Southern Army defeated several cities in a row...
"General, the gate to the Huainan Royal City has been opened! Will the army rest in the city tonight?"
Zhao Cuo met Wu Chongxing, who had returned from the bloody battle, in the military camp at night.
His face was full of excitement after the victory.
He made great achievements in this battle.
"No."
Zhao Cuo paused for a moment and then shook his head.
"The city we recaptured today was snatched away by Emperor Yongzhao half a month ago, so it will not be resisted by the people and gentry."
The several cities we have taken back now have been under the rule of Dayu for several months after the southern tour. This time they are just lost and recovered.
"You send the order. The army will camp outside the city. I will bring 10,000 people into the city to control the situation."
As he spoke, he put on a serious expression again.
"General Wu must restrain his generals. If anyone violates military orders and burns, kills, and loots people in Huainan, there is no need to report it to me. He will be executed immediately!"
"General, you will understand that we are the king's advisers to the imperial court! We are here to save the people of the seven countries from the fire and water. I will immediately spread your order to the three armies and strictly implement it."
Wu Chongxing raised his hands and said without hesitation.
"Very good."
Only then did Zhao Cuo smile.
"General Wu charged into the battle today, and you should take credit for this battle. After the victory, I will personally ask for credit for you."
"The general has given you too much credit. This time it's all up to you to make a decisive decision and send troops to attack the city. In the end, the general can only do the work of the dogs and horses and dare not take the credit."
Wu Chongxing bowed his head respectfully and said, he still knew his position, how could a general take the lead?
Even if he destroyed the seven kingdoms by himself, the great achievement still belonged to General Zhao. After all, he was only a minor general.
And the young master's astonishing achievements in bringing peace to the world will be attributed to the Empress in the history books. This is the reality.
"If we can win this battle completely and restore the Yu Mountains and rivers, you will be granted the title of Marquis."
Zhao Thief made a serious promise.
"Thank you, General, for your cultivation!"
Wu Chongxing was ecstatic.
He still holds the title of first-class general.
The fifth-level nobility of Dayu should not be given lightly unless it is due to the merits of Sheji, and he would not even dare to think of becoming a duke.
"Go ahead, let the soldiers rest for the night and attack the city again tomorrow."
Zhao Cuo patted him on the shoulder.
He felt that he was doing a good job as a general.
Apart from anything else, he has learned how to draw cakes with his own hands, but having only one confidant is not enough.
"General Zhao, the people are waiting for you along the streets in the city. Come into the Huainan Royal City quickly."
Zhao Yuanqing came astride his horse at this moment.
"Why?"
Young Master Zhao tilted his head in surprise.
"The imperial army has done no harm to the common people, and the people in the city don't want anything to happen in the future, so they want to please you."
General Teru laughed and told the truth.
Zhao Thief felt for a moment that he was too honest.
Wu Chongxing would not say that.
'The people of Huainan must support you, General!'
The martial arts general will definitely say this.
"Let's go."
He waved his riding crop without changing his expression.
"General Zhao, you will ask Deputy General Wang Cheng to see me soon. He also made great contributions in this battle."
Zhao Cuo suddenly said again that he still wanted to cultivate party members. In order to do big things in the future, he must have soldiers in his hands. This is the real power.
But Zhao Yuanqing doesn't need him to win over him.
This man is the nephew of a bad woman.
"yes!"
General Zhao never had a problem with his orders.
The two men led 10,000 elite troops into the brightly lit Huainan Royal City without any offense from the soldiers or civilians.
The young prince went straight to the palace, but he did not let the army enter and trample it. Instead, he invited Anle to inspect it. This was originally her home.
"Last time I came here, I led troops to besiege the King of Huainan..."
Thief Zhao stared blankly at the towering palace wall.
This is the second time he has captured the capital of Huainan.
Before the last tour to the south, he and Sister Lan had been honest with each other for the first time in this palace and had a deep understanding of each other.
"The palace is already empty. My father and the others have all left. There is no one left."
The little witch's voice sounded in his mind.
"Um……"
Zhao Cuo was speechless for a moment.
Will Anle be sad about this?
After all, she is the princess of Huainan Kingdom.
"Anle, the last time you went to southern Xinjiang, you passed through Huainan and didn't meet your family, right?"
The young prince asked in a low voice to Her Majesty the Queen, who did not appear.
"I forgot."
To be continued...
