I’m The King

Chapter 702: : The young phoenix screams and shakes the world (5)

Helin, in the palace hall, a dozen or so coffins are neatly lined up in the hall. Although the hall is spacious, these coffins appear much narrower when they are placed, and what is even more suffocating is this time. The atmosphere in the temple.

Headed by Yan Qi, the commanding generals of the Donghu Hetao Battalion all died in battle, and none was spared. Looking at the coffins, apart from the endless anger, the heart of every Donghu official was infinite panic. This is a major defeat for Donghu that has not been seen in hundreds of years.

It’s not when Donghu was not beaten to the extreme by Yan Guo, but at that time, the enemy came and I went, the enemy was tired and I was beaten. Donghu people were barefoot and were not afraid to wear shoes. Even in the most embarrassed time, they never passed tens of thousands. There are precedents for the collapse of the army, and since Miranda took power, the iron fist integrated the various ministries of Donghu, the strong rise of Donghu, the prosperous national power, but the retreat of Yan Guo step by step, and finally control the entire Liaodong, just two years ago, Miranda Before his death, he also cleverly used a clever trick to kill or capture the invading army of 100,000 Yan, so that the country of Yan had to sign an alliance under the city.

The past is still vivid, but the form is reversed abruptly. The big defeat fell on the Donghu people. However, the Yan people suffered from this big defeat, although they could shake the country, but they could still support it, but the Donghu people could not bear it. Such a big defeat. Everyone looked at Thorpe, who was still sitting upright on the steps and Hu's bed. The expressions in their eyes were no longer the usual submissive, but suspicious eyes.

Pharaoh's choice of Thorpe, is it really the right choice? This thought came to mind unstoppably.

Thorpe stared fiercely at the coffin in the front. It was Yan Qi, but the anger in his heart began to burn a little bit. Tens of thousands of troops paid this person's hand, but in return it was like this. As a result, even if he died in battle, how can he atone for his sin? Lost in this battle. What shakes is not only Donghu’s roots, but also his throne. Although the domestic rebels are chilling and panting under his steel knife, it does not mean that they will just surrender. Whenever they get the chance, they will definitely jump. Out of the rabid dog barking day, and more importantly, he doesn't know where these people are hiding now? The hundreds of civil and military officials who glanced across the hall seemed to want from these seemingly submissive expressions. Find out those potential enemies, glance over, and all of them lowered their eyelids.

Inside the hall, there was deathly silence. No one dared to speak first. Everyone knew very well the anger hidden under Thorpe's calm expression. At this time. Whoever speaks first may become a prosperous son.

Turou sighed and took a step forward. He was the first assistant. He was the only one who was in the early stage. "Your Majesty, almost 50,000 troops have died in battles, and all tribes and tribes in the territory. Almost families are filial piety, and every household is crying. Please also your Majesty as soon as possible.

"Thank you?" Thorpe squeezed two words from his teeth, just about to have an attack, but raised his eyes to see the earnest expression in Tulu's sorrow, his heart felt like being swept by a violent wind, and he trembled. , Calmed down steeply, Tulu said rightly, to calm people's hearts, at this moment, it is not the time for anger.

"Compensation, it is to be compassionate." Thorpe nodded heavily. "The army fought for the country and unfortunately lost their lives. Naturally, they can't treat their families wrongly. Wang Tingshi. You will take care of this matter. There are those who died in battle. , Each person has a pension of fifty taels of silver. Within ten days, this sum of money will be raised and distributed as quickly as possible."

He looked at a civil official on the right. This person was Yan, who was captured by Donghu during the previous battle against Yan Kingdom. This person was in the Yan army. He was originally responsible for the distribution of food and grass for the army and was in charge of the logistics of the army. An official, who was quite accomplished in wealth, was reused by Thorpe after he voted for Donghu.

"Fifty taels per person?" Wang Tingshi's face muscles twitched, and he walked to Thorpe, bowed and trembled: "My lord, fifty thousand troops, fifty thousand per person, that's 2.5 million. Two silvers, this, this is not available. Two years ago, in a battle with Yan Guo, although he won, but the national strength was very depleted. When the troops were sent out, twenty-two silvers per dime were already paid for the settlement. This is one million taels..."

"How much can I take out?" Thorpe interrupted him.

"Within the treasury, there is only less than one million silver." Wang Tingshi whispered, "If you plan out the expenses this year, you can use it as a pension, up to two hundred thousand taels of silver."

Thorpe only felt that the roots of his teeth were itchy, two hundred thousand taels, not a single fraction. However, it is necessary to care for the infantry. Even if you don’t give the infantry the cash, the tens of thousands of cavalry are Donghu’s mouths, but they are impossible to save. If you can’t do this, I’m afraid that you have just gathered. The hearts of the people who got up were going to disperse immediately.

"Within the treasury, you have to squeeze five hundred thousand taels anyway." He said coldly: "In addition, the king will receive five hundred thousand taels of silver from the treasury."

Tulu followed Thorpe's words, "My lord, the minister will give one hundred thousand taels."

"Okay, Tulu deserves to be the first assistant of my Donghu, and is dedicated to the country." Thorpe nodded with satisfaction, and Tulu was indeed the first assistant, exquisite and vigilant, and he understood what he meant when he opened his mouth.

On the side of the military commander, Arundai strode out, "Your Majesty, the minister also gave out one hundred thousand taels, and my Tieling clan did not fight this time, the minister will mobilize the people of this tribe and donate another hundred thousand taels."

"Okay, okay!" Thorpe nodded repeatedly, "If you count this king, this is 800,000 taels." He set his gaze on Ussu Suotan.

In desperation, Wusu Suotan could only draw a list, "My lord, the Wusu clan, I would also like to make two hundred thousand taels." He turned his eyes and saw the dark coffin beside him, only feeling angry from his heart. Once, his Wusu clan sent thousands of troops, led by his younger brother Wusualla, and the entire army was destroyed, but his Wusu clan, the family of Princess Thorpe, has gained countless benefits since Thorpe took the throne. Has been tied to Thorpe's body.

"My lord, Yan Qi is incompetent. Tens of thousands of troops attacked, but the entire army was completely destroyed, harming our country, and betraying me. The ministers please treat the crime of Yan Qi. Although this person is dead, he cannot atone for his crime. , Copy his family wealth, reward the family of the dead in battle, so as to allay the people's anger."

As soon as Ussutsot said this, in the hall, a group of people responded immediately to see Thorpe's meaning. People like them must make up for the insufficient funds. This is not a small amount of money, but from The Yan Qi family, the Donghu family, and the **** confidant of Miranda have always been Miranda’s **** confidant. Over the past few decades, I am afraid that they have accumulated countless wealth and copied his home. These assets can be used for this. The second sympathy can make them shed a little less blood. At this time, all people are united. Above the hall, there is a voice of begging and begging.

"Yan Qi is incompetent, the teacher humiliates the country, the death is hard to redeem him, Haoge, Tu Ketan, you two, rate a thousand palace guards, arrest the Yan Qi clan, not to get out of one, rob his family." Among the noisy voices, Thorpe's voice sounded sharply, "His family, don't need to interrogate again, all beheaded."

As soon as the last four words came out, the noise in the hall came to an abrupt end. Everyone raised their heads and looked at Thorpe in shock. They wanted to copy Yan Qi’s family property to avoid paying too much money, but Never thought of killing them all. Even though Yan Qi was defeated, he was Thorpe's most steadfast supporter and gave Thorpe the greatest support. It can be said that if there was no Yan Qi's great help, the battle between Thorpe and Thork would be the one who will die.

Thorpe got up and flicked his sleeves, but in the hall, it was so quiet that even a needle could fall.

"The king!" In the apse, Tulu touched his head to the ground, wailing: "Yan Qi is guilty, but he died on the battlefield, and his family was confiscated. If he can atone for his sins, the minister asks the king to spare him Family, punish him as a slave. If he loses the war, he will ransack his family and exterminate the clan and fight later. Who else can lead the army?

Thorpe was silent for a long while, and his cold voice remembered in Tulu's ear, "This king wants those people to know that if they can't win, there is only a dead end. No matter who it is, I can kill you. What are they? ?"

"My lord, in this way, He Lin must have a lot of people's hearts!"

"In the Helin, the palace guards have sharpened their swords, and those who have bad intentions will kill them!" Thorpe said coldly. "Tulu, you don't need to say any more, about Yan Qi, that's it, no, you can't deter others. Tulu, get up, we have to discuss what we should do next?"

Tulu sighed and stood up tremblingly. Within a short period of time, he seemed to be a dozen years old, and his back also buckled.

"Sit down, Arendy, come and sit down too." Thorpe pointed to the brocade stool in front of him. "You are the people I trust the most. There are many crises right now. If you can't solve them quickly, you will inevitably endanger the country. this."

Arundai has a chest ~www.wuxiaspot.com~The king, please go out again, the minister is willing to lead his troops and hit the loop again. Although the high thief was lucky enough to defeat our army, it was bound to have suffered heavy losses. At this time, the attack should be successful in one fell swoop. "

"No!" Tulu raised his head steeply, "My lord, Yan Qi is defeated, and the country is turbulent. At this time, if you send troops again, if you win, if you lose again, you will be in danger."

"Tulu, how can you tell that I will lose?" Arundai furious.

Turu turned his head and glared at Arundai, "Arundai, at this time our army was newly defeated and morale is low. The country has tried its best to raise the food and grass for the first battle, and there is still room to go on the expedition again, even if we We can catch up with enough food and grass, and the East Expeditionary Army can drag us to death only by guarding the city."

"No need to talk about it." Thorpe shouted, "It won't work. We don't have the ability to fight another big battle, Tulu, what do you say?"

"Discussing peace!" Tulu bowed his head and said, "I can only negotiate peace with Gao Yuan." (To be continued...)
