Chapter 751: Withdrawal
Palace of Qinzheng
After retiring from the imperial court, Emperor Chu hadn't left yet, he was still thinking about the scenes just now, both his actions and words were different from usual.
He also has some Feng Wang who is not used to the change to Xin Wang.
In the past, King Qi could not see King Feng being in the limelight. No matter what suggestion King Feng made, he would object to it first.
He wished he could take all the limelight of the Three Kings on himself.
It is said that the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change. King Qi's appearance like this really worries him.
King Qi's face is a little pale today, and there is still a little sweat on his forehead, looking like he is overworked.
This appearance is either bewitched or sick.
No matter how you say it, King Qi is also his own son!
Thinking of this, Emperor Chu said: "Wei Zhong, order the imperial physician to go to Prince Qi's mansion to see how King Qi's health is. His behavior really worries me."
Wei Zhong bowed and said, "Yes!"
half an hour later
King Qi put a pot of tea in the study, intending to sell it after a short rest.
It's just that the emperor's increasingly stingy attitude made him a little dissatisfied. He gave back three cans yesterday, but he gave one can today.
Did you say that as long as you want to drink, you can go to him and ask for it?
Forget it, don't complain about those who come here without spending money.
At this moment, one of the few maidservants in Prince Qi's Mansion said at the door of the study: "Your Highness, the imperial physician ordered to see His Highness, saying that he followed His Majesty's oral order."
"Emperor doctor's order?" King Qi murmured and walked outside, "Order him to wait in the lobby, and the king will be there soon."
after a cup of tea
Qi Wang Mansion Lobby
King Qi looked at the order of the imperial physician and asked, "I don't know why my father asked you to come here?"
The Imperial Physician ordered: "Your Majesty is worried about His Highness's health, so let me take a look."
Since ancient times when he practiced medicine, he heard about it and asked about it. The imperial physician Ling first saw that King Qi's face was paler than ordinary people. He heard that King Qi's family was busy recently.
So the Imperial Physician Order asked, "I wonder if Your Highness is feeling unwell?"
Qi Wangdao; "I'm a little tired, I'm sweating all the time, and I feel like panting after walking a few steps..."
The Imperial Physician Ling was stunned and said: "This is a sign of physical weakness!"
King Qi immediately coughed and said, "Of course I don't have these symptoms, I just feel a little cough and cold."
Imperial Physician Order: "The old minister should check His Highness's pulse."
King Qi immediately shook his head and said: "No need, it's just a little wind and cold, it doesn't hinder it, it doesn't hinder it, look at how serious it is, is it serious enough to take the pulse?"
The Imperial Physician wrote a prescription without being able to explain it clearly. Fortunately, His Royal Highness just asked him to improve a prescription, otherwise other prescriptions would not be as effective as this one.
He can understand His Royal Highness Qi's mood, and he was so stubborn when he was young.
This involves the dignity of men.
Not everyone is as devoted as Princess Gao Ning's son-in-law.
northern grassland
Agula returned to the Wanyan Department, stood on the grassland, and sighed heavily as he watched the rotten situation.
Unexpectedly, since Chu State declared war on the grassland to now, in just a few days, Chu State has already occupied such a large amount of territory in their grassland.
Wanyan Chengji looked at Agula and said, "Agula, what should we do?"
Agula said: "We fell into the trick of the Central Plains. We received soldiers from all over the world. We collected war horses from all the tribes in the grassland in order to eliminate the rebellious heart of the world. This is to destroy our hands and feet! Without war horses, We have become a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of the firearms of Chu State! If not, how could they advance so quickly?!"
Wanyan Chengji clenched his fists and said, "But... Chu State is willing to sell us this priceless glazed glazed wolf king, why would it attack our grassland like this?"
Agula said: "The Liuli Wolf King is priceless, and the vast land of our grassland is also priceless. It's fair to exchange priceless for priceless."
Wanyan Chengji also gritted his teeth when he heard this, "You despicable Chu people!"
Agula said: "It's too late to say these things at this time. Without war horses, all the tribes on the grassland are equivalent to losing an arm. Now the only remedy is to redistribute the war horses collected from the Wanyan tribe. Go down and arm the warriors of the tribes around Wanyan. Only in this way can we contain the offensive momentum of Chu and buy time for the Khan to come back. As long as our grassland elite kills, things will turn around .”
Wanyan Chengji nodded and said, "I'll go right away!"
An hour later...
Wanyan Chengji walked back to Wanyan's department, Agula came out from the tent and looked at Wanyan Chengji and said, "How? How is things going?"
Wanyan Chengji shook his head with a wry smile, "It's not that good."
Hearing Wanyan Chengji's words, Agula asked in confusion: "What happened?"
Wan Yancheng said: "The surrounding tribes don't want to ride horses anymore."
Agula asked puzzled, "Why?"
The prairie people are a nation on horseback, why are they not willing to let them live a life on horseback again?
Wan Yancheng said, "When the Khan ordered the ban on horses, he used knives from the surrounding tribes. Let alone riding horses, those who secretly hid horses were all beheaded. Now no one in the surrounding tribes dares to ride horses. Khan, he killed too much."
Agula gritted his teeth and said, "Force them to ride horses and hold knives to regroup to defend our grassland territory, and those who disobey the order will be beheaded!"
Wanyan Chengji nodded again when he heard Agula's words: "Yes!"
Another hour later...
Agula looked at Wanyan Chengji, who was covered in blood, and said in surprise, "General Chengji, why did you become like this? Could it be that the Chu people killed you?!"
Wanyan Chengji said with a mournful face, "The group of people said that riding a horse is death, not riding is death, anyway, death is worse than rebellion."
Agula's heart tightened; "And then?"
Wanyan Chengji said, "Then they rebelled. I, Wanyan, lost troops and finally suppressed the rebellion. This is still a tribe. If I force the other tribes to join the war horses, they will rebel. I am afraid that they will rebel. It may be very difficult for the Wanyan Department to retreat completely."
Agula sighed: "I never thought that things would turn out like this."
He really didn't expect that it would end up like this.
Wanyan Chengji looked at Agula and said, "Agula, what should we do now?"
Agula waved his hand and said, "Withdraw!"
Wanyan Chengji asked in confusion, "Withdraw? How?"
Agula said: "The entire Wanyan tribe retreated fifty miles. Now the distance between our Wanyan tribe and the Chu army's forward is very limited. If they push forward again, our Wanyan tribe will be in danger. Since we can't defend at this time, we will We can only avoid it for the time being, and wait until Khan leads our elite warriors from the grassland to fight back."
Wanyan Chengji took a deep breath and said, "I see."
