Volume 1, Chapter 106 Bai Qi's Reward for Three Levels Up

"Hit you?"

"I want to kill you now!"

The Third Priest saw that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty looked confused and ignorant. He raised his hand and slapped him again. The sharp palm wind broke the corner of the Emperor's mouth.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty burst into tears like a wronged child.

The Third Priest in front of him was the ancestor of his Great Zhou royal family.

Although he was just a eunuch, he had lived for too long. He didn't even know how old he was.

He didn't dare to offend him.

The most important thing was that the Great Zhou royal family priests could kill the Great Zhou royal family!

These people were actually the running dogs of the gods.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty immediately stood up and stood respectfully in front of the Third Priest, like a child who had done something wrong, admitting his mistakes.

"Please give me some advice, Third Priest!"

Although he had resentment, anger, and hatred in his heart.

But he knew that the reason why his throne was stable and he could become the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was all due to the support of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

If these royal family worshippers did not support him,

then they could just find a puppet in the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, or even find other princes, and directly get him off the throne.

At this moment, the third worshipper really wanted to slap this idiot to death.

But he still took a deep breath, and then explained:

"Although the Khans of the Xiongnu retreated, did they really retreat?"

"They just went back to resolve internal conflicts. The Khans wanted to take this opportunity to kill the Second Khan and annex his forces."

"Once the Khans annexed the Second Khan, they would have to continue to attack Honghua City?"

"Before deciding who is the First Khan."

"Taking Honghua City is their only bargaining chip to become the First Khan!"

"Do you understand?"

The third worshipper pointed at the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At this moment, he was really stunned by the stupidity of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although they chose the Great Zhou Emperor because of his stupidity, they thought he was easy to control and could be manipulated at will.

But you can't be so stupid! If you

are so stupid that your country is about to be destroyed, it's your fault.

The Great Zhou Emperor swallowed hard, and then he understood the key problem.

He muttered to himself: "In other words, I can't kill Bai Qi at all now, so Bai Qi is still useful?"

"That's right!" The third minister snorted, looking disappointed:

"Bai Qi's move only solved our current crisis."

"Let the 500,000 Huns leave Honghua City temporarily, but what should we do next?"

"Tell me, when the Huns gather the four Khans to attack Honghua City again, what should you do?"

"This time will not be too short!"

"At most one month, at most 20 days, they will come back again!"

The third minister roughly estimated the time. If the four Huns Khans joined forces to attack the second Khan again, they would definitely chase him to the point where there was no way to go to heaven or earth.

To destroy a Khan, this speed is incredible.

After all, the Huns knew their own people well, and under such a powerful offensive, the tribal leaders under the Second Khan might surrender directly.

They were just the ministers under the Second Khan of the Huns. Why should they follow the Second Khan of the Huns to perish together?

It doesn't matter which Khan you surrender to?

So if the people of Da Zhou were to fight this battle, the Second Khan would not be destroyed so quickly!

But if the Huns fought by themselves, it would be a one-sided massacre.

The Emperor of Da Zhou was speechless when asked by the three worshippers. How could he know how to repel the enemy?

Although the next time the Huns attacked, there was one less Second Khan, and after a Khan hegemony in the grassland, the overall strength of the Huns declined.

However, not many people would die, at most only 30,000 to 50,000 people.

The next time the Huns attacked Honghua City, there would be one less Khan, and it would be easier to command.

Although the number of troops in the next attack on Honghua City has decreased, the combat effectiveness has not decreased at all.

And more importantly, will the Xiongnu cut off the logistics supply again next time?

Will other sects come to fish in troubled waters next time?

Tianji Sect did this, will other sects want to do the same?

Thinking of this, the face of the Great Zhou Emperor was not good, and he finally realized the seriousness of the matter. Now he can finally sit on the throne.

How can he give up?

"Third tribute, what should we do now?"

The Great Zhou Emperor was afraid and asked quickly.

The third tribute sighed and said, "Speaking of killing Bai Qi, I want to kill him more than you! His threat is too great."

"But now is not the time to kill him. At least before the Xiongnu is completely solved, Bai Qi is still very useful." "

The most important thing is: now only Bai Qi can solve the problem of the Xiongnu."

"So, this time you must reward Bai Qi heavily!"

What? !

Reward Bai Qi again!

The Great Zhou Emperor felt a toothache when he heard this.

The thing he least wanted to do was to let Bai Qi get promoted and make a fortune.

But now the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty is very dangerous. If we don't do this, we may really be in danger of extinction as the three priests said.

The Great Zhou Emperor gritted his teeth and roared: "Come, pass the order!"

The eunuch outside the door ran in quickly and knelt on the ground to wait for the order of the Great Zhou Emperor.

The Great Zhou Emperor brewed for a long time, and finally said reluctantly:

"Pass on my order:"

"Bai Qi led 10,000 elite soldiers to sneak attack the enemy's rear, and used a strategy of alienation to make the five great Khans of the Xiongnu kill each other."

"Thereby relieving the crisis of Honghua City."

"Saved hundreds of thousands of people and soldiers in Honghua City, and protected the border territory of the Great Zhou."

"Great contributions to the country."

"Reward for meritorious service, Bai Qi's official promotion of three levels, from the original fourth-rank military general to the second-rank military general."

After saying this, the Great Zhou Emperor sat down on the ground dejectedly.

Pain, discomfort, and frustration.

The eunuch immediately took the order and was about to convey it.

"Wait!"

The Third Priest spoke.

The Chief Eunuch and the Emperor of Zhou looked at the Third Priest in confusion.

The three ministers stared coldly at the Great Zhou Emperor and cursed: "Just rewarding? You haven't said the most important thing yet!"

The Great Zhou Emperor remembered, and then added: "I rewarded Bai Qi so much because I hope Bai Qi will be loyal to the country and hope that General Bai Qi can quickly solve the problem of the Xiongnu."

"No matter what method he uses, I must make sure that the Xiongnu will not be able to attack the Great Zhou again!"

"Do you understand?"

The eunuch nodded repeatedly, knowing how to convey the order, and then ran out.

The three ministers waved their hands and said to the Great Zhou Emperor: "You go too, I'm annoyed when I see you now!"

Haha, I don't want to see you either... The Great Zhou Emperor didn't want to stay here either. After all, there are people here who can dominate his life and death, honor and disgrace. Wouldn't it be nice for him to run to the harem?

So when he heard the three ministers' words, he ran away without thinking.

There are still many beauties waiting for him in the harem.

...........

Five days later.

Honghua City.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict arrived at full speed and read the imperial edict of the Great Zhou Emperor in front of Yang Wudi.

Yang Wudi didn't care about his reward. After all, he had reached the point where he couldn't be rewarded any more.

As for Yang Tianbao's reward, in Yang Wudi's opinion, it would be better to let Yang Tianbao go to the front line to fight and get the reward based on his military exploits.

But Yang Wudi was happy from the bottom of his heart about Bai Qi's reward. He stroked his beard and said,

"Good, good, good!"

"Send out ten teams immediately to convey the emperor's edict."

"Bai Qi must know it as soon as possible."

"He fought for the country and should enjoy the glory! Don't let the soldiers feel disappointed."

Yang Wudi quickly sent someone to inform Bai Qi. After all, this time, Bai Qi made the first contribution. If it weren't for Bai Qi, they would all be finished.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict didn't care about these issues. What he cared about most was that the Great Zhou Emperor asked him to ask Yang Wudi about it.

Then he cupped his hands and licked his face and smiled:

"General, do you think General Bai Qi can successfully complete the emperor's edict this time?"

"Can he solve the Xiongnu disaster?"

This matter is too important.

If this problem can be solved, then these eunuchs can live a happy life. If this problem cannot be solved.

The emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty is going to be finished, and these eunuchs in the palace will definitely be finished.

At this moment, the tens of thousands of generals next to him also looked at Yang Wudi. They were also very concerned about this issue.

If Bai Qi cannot complete the task successfully, then the Xiongnu will soon come back, and then Honghua City will be in crisis again.

Yang Wudi frowned. He thought for a long time and couldn't come up with a response plan.

He could only shake his head and said, "I don't know too much! The alienation plan can only be used once. If it is used again for the second time, it is estimated that it will not work again. Next, it depends on Bai Qi's performance on the spot."

When he said this, the faces of the people around him changed drastically.

Yang Wudi couldn't think of a good way. Can Bai Qi really do it?

Yang Wudi turned around and asked the eunuch, "What happened to the Tianji Sect? Has it been destroyed?"

After the Xiongnu retreated, Yang Wudi asked someone to find out and soon found out that the Tianji Sect participated in the battle with the Xiongnu this time,

and it was this sect that opened the door for the Xiongnu.

So what he cares most about now is whether this sect has been killed! He wants to skin and pull out the tendons of all these beasts.

The eunuch looked ugly and shook his head and said,

"Several ancestors in the palace have long issued a kill order against the Tianji Sect, but when they rushed to the Tianji Sect, the Tianji Sect was already empty."

"The ancestors said that the Tianji Sect is best at calculating the secrets of the sky."

"As soon as the Xiongnu had an accident, they had already run away. This group of people is as slippery as loaches." As soon as

the eunuch finished speaking, the people around him pounded their fists fiercely, secretly cursing the Tianji Sect for being too shameless.

They had actually planned to run away a long time ago.

They were very upset that they didn't kill these bastards.

But Yang Wudi thought of a more terrible consequence. His face suddenly changed and he said, "Will Tian Suanzi run to the Xiongnu army again?"

"Will he become a military advisor again?"

"Help the Xiongnu attack Honghua City?"

Oh my god!

No way!

Many soldiers swallowed their saliva, and a chill rushed from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads.

All the members of the Tianji Sect are missing. They will definitely fight to the death with the Great Zhou Dynasty, because if the Great Zhou Dynasty is not destroyed, they will be rats crossing the street.

Soon they will be liquidated.

So this time the Tianji Sect will definitely help the Xiongnu attack the Great Zhou again.

With the help of these people, the crisis that Honghua City faced last time may happen again.

"What should we do?"

"Are we just sitting here and waiting to die?"

"Will our logistics supply line be cut off again?"

"If it is cut off this time, it will be really over!"

The soldiers talked a lot, and they all understood the seriousness of the matter.

The last time the logistics supply line was cut off, the entire Great Zhou suffered heavy losses. At that time, all the food and grass supplied to the front line were burned.

Food and grass are scarce materials.

In ancient times, most people could only live a life of food and clothing, and many people would die of hunger and cold because they did not have enough food.

Therefore, the food of each dynasty basically maintained a balance between income and expenditure.

Once a large-scale war started, the food of the dynasty would be insufficient, resulting in the decline of the dynasty's population.

Most of the decline of this population was starvation.

Because when fighting, more taxes and grain must be collected.

In the end, there was even less food left for the people. The last time it was burned was the food of Honghua City for several months, and it was the food needed during the war.

That was several times the usual food.

If there is such a heavy loss again, the entire Great Zhou will have no food to supply Honghua City.

"Marshal, what should we do?"

Ten thousand generals were sweating all over.

Sometimes war depends on resources. Without food, even if you have elite soldiers and weapons, you can't fight.

People are starving to death, what else can we use to fight?

Yang Wudi sighed, looked towards the north with a gloomy look and said: "Then we can only rely on Bai Qi!"

………………

Three days later.

"Report!"

A joyful voice rang out on the grassland.

Yang Wudi sent a total of 10 teams to look for Bai Qi's traces, and finally someone found Bai Qi.

The messenger immediately turned over and dismounted, and said to Bai Qi:

"The emperor's edict: General Bai Qi, for your meritorious service in protecting the country, I specially commend General Bai Qi for his three-level promotion!"

At this moment, Bai Qi was lying on the grass, basking in the sun leisurely.

Hearing this, his eyes lit up.

But he did not rush to ask about his reward, but grabbed the messenger and pulled him over: "How is Honghua City?"

The messenger immediately said happily: "General Bai Qi, Honghua City has been defended! Although we have suffered a lot of losses, the Huns finally retreated at the critical moment."

Then he told Bai Qi everything that happened in Honghua City.

Although Honghua City suffered heavy casualties, it was finally defended!

At this moment, Yang Paifeng and others immediately cheered and celebrated, because they saved Honghua City. These soldiers felt like they were saviors, and they were all very happy.

Only Bai Qi felt that the timing was not well grasped this time. If the Xiongnu had been allowed to fight among themselves before the gates of Honghua City were breached, it would have been better.

In that case, there would not have been such a large number of casualties.

"It seems that man's plans are still inferior to God's plans. Who knows that the Xiongnu run so slowly? If it were the soldiers of the Great Zhou, even if they were exhausted, they would run to Honghua City as soon as possible."

Bai Qi cursed in his heart. These Xiongnu people had poor discipline.

At this moment, the voice of the system also sounded in Bai Qi's mind.
