Chapter 638

In the hall of diligent administration, the Grand Court meeting has come to an end.

Su Lu ordered:

"Dong Shilang, Zhao Shilang, today I'm giving a banquet to the heroes of Dingxiang guard. They are all good men in the army. You two will accompany the prince on my behalf."

Dong Cheng and Zhao Pugong agreed.

After going down to the court, Dong Cheng and Zhao Pu went to the Wu Ying hall under the guidance of the little eunuch.

The Lord wants to give awards to the spies of Dingxiang guard who are lurking in the dark. It has been spread in the capital for a long time. The generals of Jingying and Zhuwei have been greeted by the Lord and want to receive some meritorious soldiers.

It's no surprise that they were sent by your majesty to accompany us.

There was a lot of excitement in the Wu Ying hall. When they arrived, the banquet had not yet started, but the medal ceremony was over.

Looking at the tearful guards in the hall, Dong Cheng also had some fluctuations in his heart.

Many of them have intact limbs, but most of them have incomplete limbs.

Some had a broken arm, some had a lame leg, and some had half their faces destroyed. If it were not in the Wu Ying hall, Dong Cheng almost thought it was in the wounded camp of a big camp somewhere.

Su Luxiang came in after the two, and the voice of Lord Gao Dabao immediately rang through the Wu Ying hall.

Kneeling down in the hall.

Su Lu waved his hand. "Everybody get up. Today we only talk about merit, not rank and office."

"These two are general Dong Cheng and General Zhao Pu. Those of you who want to stay in the capital will have to make a living under them in the future."

"If you don't want to stay in the capital, you need the consent of the two chamberlains for the change of duties and the adjustment of ranks. Your majesty asked you to come here to accompany the wine today. If you have any resentment and anger in your heart, you should try your best to intoxicate them."

Laughter rang out in the hall.

Su Lu continued:

"I should have decorated you personally today, but something happened just now. I went to the ordnance mansion to see it myself. I didn't honor you personally. I'll punish myself here."

Su Lu went to the banquet, raised his hand, picked up a wine glass and drank it up.

"Today, all your honours have been awarded. If you want to stay for the rest of your life, just report it for the record."

With that, Su Lu raised his glass again.

"This cup, I respect all heroes. For the sake of the strength of China's Han Dynasty, you have been lurking in an enemy country for half your life. You have paid unimaginable hardships. I will pay you twice today for your blood."

After that, Su Lu drank it up again.

Changning, who followed him, picked at the corner of his eye and looked at the wine on the table, forcibly restrained his impulse to stop. This wine must be drunk. This is the wine for meritorious officials.

There was a sound of drinking in the hall. Everyone burst into tears and drank up the wine.

"It's worth it. I've been worth it all my life."

Chen Chengzhen was the first to drink up the wine in the glass. Tears filled his eyes. He was worried about the past. He lived and died. Today he finally paid off.

"My old Kang broke this leg. It's worth it."

The lame KangBo drank the wine and roared up to the sky.

After drinking the wine, more people were thrown to the ground and wailed for the suffering they had suffered in the past and for the people whose deaths were lurking.

For a time, the hall was full of the sound of falling cups and crying.

Dong Cheng and Zhao Pu looked at each other. They were not generals who had never suffered hardship, but they had never been rewarded like this. Looking at the men with tears in their eyes, they also had some fluctuations in their hearts.

Su Lu continued:

"Well, take this opportunity to tell you something happy."

"The ordnance mansion has finally made a major breakthrough. We have made more advanced birds than the Tibetans and Malians."

"With this flying bird, we can not be afraid of the strong crossbow of the British. This time, I will personally unify the army, defeat the naval camp of the British in the state of Qi and completely wipe out the state of Qi."

"Let the people of Qi no longer suffer from hunger, and let the land of Qi no longer suffer from hunger."

Chen Xiaoniu jumped onto the table, raised his arms and shouted:

"Long live the king"

The cheers in the hall immediately climbed to the top, and the scorching sound almost overturned the roof of the hall.

"Long live the king"

"Long live your majesty"

"Long live the state of Han"

……

Qi, Linzi.

In the imperial study of the Imperial Palace, Zhao Gou walked back and forth impatiently, his face full of irritability.

The eunuch came in and reported:

"Your Majesty, Mr. Su is here."

"Please"

Zhao Gou couldn't wait to go to the door and wanted to meet Mr. Su himself.

Mr. Su, who was wrapped in a cloak, entered the imperial study under the guidance of the little eunuch. Facing Zhao Gou, Mr. Su saluted:

"Your Majesty urgently calls his ministers. I don't know why?"

Zhao Gou's face was full of anxiety. Before Mr. Su sat down, he said:

"As expected, Su Ping did not lose my hope when the old witch declared war on the Han Dynasty. She went down to Haicheng port first, and then broke the cities on both sides of the Tuojiang River. Almost with the power of the water army on the Wangjiang River, she completely connected the land of Qi and Tang conquered by the Han country."

"The cities on the South Bank of Tuojiang River have fallen one after another. The court of Qi is turbulent. The old demon woman has given me a lot of power, but several forbidden troops are still in the hands of the old demon woman. I want to completely control Linzi. Why can you teach me?"

Mr. Su was wrapped in a cloak and his voice was hoarse.

"Your Majesty, you have to pay a corresponding price if you want to obtain much power. If you can be cruel, don't say Linzi. Even the military power of the state of Qi is just a backhand."

Zhao Gou, who had already benefited from pushing the state of Qi to declare war on the state of Han, almost wholeheartedly believed in the man wrapped in a cloak.

"Sir, just say that if I can hold the treasure alone in the future, I will thank you with a duke."

A cold hoarse voice came from under the cloak:

"Your Majesty, the water army of the Han state has defeated our army, but it has not hurt the muscles and bones of the poor Qi state. If you want to seize the military power of the Qi State, the Yingte water army camp outside Linzi city is the biggest obstacle."

"The British people support the Empress Dowager. Only by taking advantage of the power of the Han Army and removing the British navy, can you really surpass the Empress Dowager and become the emperor of Qi."

Zhao Gou took two steps and his face was full of tangles:

"But the Han army is not the army of Qi. If you want them to go to war with Yingte, you can go to war."

"We are now an enemy country with Han. If we want to borrow the power of Han, we still need your advice."

Zhao Gou looked at Mr. Su with burning eyes.

Mr. Su sneered:

"It's also simple. If your majesty is willing to bear the eternal curse, rather than repair a letter, ask Su Lu to send troops and expel the British, and then take the land on the North Bank of the Tuojiang River as a reward."

Zhao Gou was quite moved. It was very cost-effective to exchange the land north of the Tuojiang River for his king.

But he hesitated at the thought of the curse in the history books.

Mr. Su sneered:

"General Zhao Shuo used to do business with the Han Army several times. Every time the Han Army abided by the agreement, took the land and gave general Zhao Shuo the head and weapons he needed for promotion and wealth."

"Your Majesty, you can do this business without losing money."
