After binding the system, I became a national mystery person
Chapter 16 Brother (15)
"This is the first war since the founding of the People's Republic of China. I don't want anyone to make small moves and delay the war."
The emperor handed the matter over to the prime minister, believing that he could handle it well.
"You must control the army's supplies. If anyone dares to make a move, chop off his head as a warning to others."
"As you command, Your Majesty."
A month later, the army arrived at the border town five days earlier to rest and reorganize the troops.
"General Wang, now that you are here, the army will be under your command and we will all listen to you," said Li Xuan.
"Yes, I've heard of the general's name a long time ago. Seeing him today, I can see that he lives up to his name."
"Yes, everyone's morale has been boosted a lot since General Wang came."
"We must avenge what happened over the past few years. If we hadn't prohibited large-scale wars in recent years, they would have thought we were afraid of him."
"I must vent my anger this time."
Everyone was talking at once, saying that they had been frustrated in recent years, watching other countries showing off their power.
Now we can have a good fight.
"Everyone, listen to me. We are here on orders from the Emperor, and His Majesty has high hopes for us.
This time, it's not just to scare them, but also to seize their territory and take it for ourselves."
Wang Yuan looked at the other generals and said with high spirits.
“This…” General Wang spoke so arrogantly that everyone was frightened by him.
We just wanted to scare them, but General Wang wanted to occupy their territory.
It's because we have a small vision.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Wang Yuan knew that they had misunderstood.
"Before coming here, the Emperor gave me a map that clearly marked the topography of other countries. The Emperor would never let us fight a battle we weren't sure of."
As he spoke, Wang Yuan took out the map given to him by the emperor, put it on the table, and let the generals take a look.
"This..." Everyone was very excited. If this picture was real, then General Wang's fantasy just now would not be impossible to succeed.
There is great potential in this matter.
This is something that will be remembered for eternity. "Your Majesty is wise, long live the Emperor."
Several generals were discussing plans and taking action after careful consideration.
"It's decided. We will launch a surprise attack tomorrow. General Li Xuan will lead the advance troops to create chaos.
"I will lead tens of thousands of troops to encircle them," Wang Yuan said, "and General Qian Qiu will remain at the garrison."
Everyone agreed that speed was of the essence in war and that orders must be carried out strictly.
On the other side, morning court.
"Prime Minister, you are the most well-informed. Do you know what the situation is like at the border now?" asked Minister of Works Li.
"The emperor will make the announcement. I don't know about it either." Xie Yunzhi pretended to be confused.
This old fox, Lord Li thought to himself.
Su Jinru was listening nearby. She had the system and knew the situation, but she didn't say anything.
At this time, the emperor walked into the hall and sat on the throne.
The court officials below all stood up.
"Long live the emperor." He knelt down and bowed.
"Everyone loves you."
Emperor Yang Chengyun, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe embroidered with a dragon soaring into the sky, sat upright on the dragon throne, his brows revealing an imperial aura that was majestic without even being angry.
In the court, civil and military officials stood on both sides in silence. Only the occasional sound of robes rubbing against each other broke the oppressive tranquility.
"Announcement - urgent news from the border!" With a sharp and long sound of the command, the entire court was instantly shocked.
A messenger in armor, holding a report of victory with a gold-rimmed jade shaft, strode into the hall quickly, his steps revealing excitement and pride that was difficult to conceal.
Yang Chengyun's attention was instantly attracted. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if he wanted to penetrate the victory report and reach the battlefield on the border.
The civil and military officials around also cast curious and expectant glances, and the atmosphere in the entire court instantly became tense and exciting.
"Your Majesty, we have good news from the border!" The messenger knelt on the ground, holding up the victory report with both hands, his voice full of excitement.
Yang Chengyun waved his dragon robe lightly, signaling the messenger to come forward.
When the victory report was presented to him, he slowly unfolded it and saw that every word on it was as red as blood and every sentence was sonorous.
It records the glorious achievements of how the frontier army, led by the famous generals Wang Yuan and Li Xuan, defeated the enemy with fewer troops, launched a surprise attack, besieged and strangled the enemy, and finally won a great victory.
Successively occupied several cities in neighboring countries.
As he read the good news word by word, a smile gradually appeared on Yang Chengyun's face, which was the joy and pride from the heart.
He looked up at the court and saw that the faces of civil and military officials were also filled with the same smiles. The entire court was filled with an unprecedented atmosphere of jubilation.
"Good! Good! These are the soldiers of my Great Shang Dynasty!" Li Xuan slammed the table and stood up, his voice so loud that it echoed throughout the hall.
Yang Chengyun believed that this victory was not only a victory in the foreign war, but also made the ministers trust in his decision-making as emperor.
In the following days, we received good news from the border every month.
At dusk the next day, the sunset glowed like a fire in the sky, and a rider on a galloping horse broke through the hustle and bustle and headed straight for Su Jinru's home.
The messenger on horseback was covered in dust, holding two expedited letters in his hands. They were Su Jincheng's letters home!
The messenger gave one letter to Su Jinru and the other to Su Jincheng's wife.
In addition to reporting safety, the letter from home also included an astonishing piece of news: Su Jincheng had fought bravely on the battlefield, made many outstanding achievements, and had been promoted to major general.
He also thanks his sister for giving him Sun Tzu's Art of War. It was this wisdom that made him more powerful on the battlefield.
"Although I know my brother's recent situation, I feel warm inside when I receive a letter from him."
Su Jincheng has been fighting for two and a half years. Except for the last country, all the surrounding countries have now been incorporated into the Shang Dynasty.
In such a short period of time, he accomplished such a great feat, and the emperor's reputation among the people became increasingly high.
Everyone says that the emperor is a rare and wise ruler in history.
It is said that whoever wins the hearts of the people will win the world, and Yang Chengyun also has a very good reputation among the scholars.
Now, it is very convenient for the emperor to implement some policies, as he has complete control over the court and the right to speak.
On the other side, the smoke on the battlefield gradually dissipated, leaving only broken walls and scattered weapons.
The soldiers were sitting or lying down, their faces filled with the joy of victory and exhaustion. This was their last war, and now they could go home.
"It's been four years since you left home, right? Your boy has grown up."
When the war broke out, they had no way to go home and could only rely on letters to learn about what was happening at home and relieve their homesickness.
"Yeah, they are probably all grown boys now." Su Jincheng thought of his children and a smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, everyone, get up and have a good rest today. We will return to the capital in a few days. You can go home and reunite with your families."
General Wang Yuan was also very happy.
The soldiers were very excited.
Three days later, the barracks became busy as the soldiers packed their bags, repaired their equipment, and prepared to embark on their journey home.
In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone on the army ready to go.
The trumpet sounded and the soldiers shouted in unison, their voices shaking the sky.
The generals rode on their horses, holding battle flags in their hands, and led the army forward slowly.
People along the way came out of their homes, holding flowers in their hands and with tears in their eyes, paying the highest respects to the returning heroes.
The children followed the team excitedly, imitating the soldiers' movements, and planted the seeds of defending the country in their hearts.
“Will there be no more wars in the future? Will we never be displaced again?”
A woman from the border town asked with tears in her eyes. Her husband died in the war.
"The whole world belongs to our Great Shang Kingdom. Who would dare to take advantage of us? There will be no war. Woo woo woo~ It's just that my child didn't live to see him." An old woman burst into tears.
"When I grow up, I want to be a brave soldier like them," a child said firmly.
