Chapter 1818

"Well said."

Inside Chang'an City, there were also people who had suffered deeply from the Xiongnu on the borders of Great Qian; their eyes were red, and their hatred was monstrous!

King Guxi had just opened his mouth when a piece of rotten cabbage leaf plastered his face, the salty and fishy juice seeping into his mouth and nose, mixed with the angry curses that erupted from the crowd on Zhu Que Street: "Damn Xiongnu people, give me back my son!"

"Give me back my mother!"

He suddenly remembered three years ago, when his cavalry leveled a small village, there were also such cries of wailing.

Before King Guxi could recover.

The next second.

Clatter!

A large piece of rotten cabbage and rotten eggs came toward the prisoner cart like raindrops.

As the one at the very front, King Guxi was simply the center of the firepower.

Before he could even defend himself, his vision went black.

Rotten eggs exploded on him, and an extremely thick stench, mixed with the smell of rotten cabbage, almost made King Guxi vomit.

"So smelly!"

"It's really damn smelly!"

King Guxi was miserable and wanted to die.

The next second.

He saw a lump of golden things rapidly enlarging in his pupils, hitting his cheek squarely.

"What is this?"

King Guxi wiped it subconsciously, and he couldn't even open his eyes; it was sticky, and he only felt an even more foul smell attacking him.

After finally waiting for him to open his eyes and see what was on his hand, he was shocked.

"Damn!"

"Who the hell is this? Rotten eggs are one thing, but there is actually such an insane person who grabs feces and greets people's faces with it?"

"..."

Soon.

Jin Luan Hall.

Wu Zhao sat on the dragon throne, an exquisite face full of nobility.

She looked down at the civil and military officials, and her voice followed.

"A hundred years ago, our Great Qian Taizu Emperor was besieged by two hundred thousand Xiongnu and was almost captured alive by the Xiongnu Great Chanyu!"

"Since then, for a hundred years, the Xiongnu have been powerful, with hundreds of thousands of archers coming and going like the wind; the emperors of our Great Qian could only humiliate themselves by marrying off women to exchange for peace!"

"The Xiongnu viewed the border counties of our Great Qian as granaries, robbing whenever they wanted and leaving whenever they wanted; our Great Qian was like a wild dog on the side of the road, only able to wag its tail and beg for mercy from the Xiongnu, hoping for that little bit of peace!"

When Wu Zhao said this, she slapped the dragon throne, her eyes full of endless anger!

"This is a national shame! This is not just the shame of our Great Qian Imperial Family, but even more the shame of the tens of millions of people of our Great Qian!"

"But now, the shame has been washed away!"

"Chancellor Gao led tens of thousands of our Great Qian iron cavalry, pointing his sword to the west; the dust of a thousand miles of Hexi has been swept away, King Zhenyue bowed his head, and the Golden Man for Heaven Worship was offered before the palace! From now on, there will be no Hu horses in the desert, the Western Regions will have trade routes, and the backs of our Great Qian men have finally straightened!"

"As the Lord of Great Qian, I should naturally reward merit!"

When Wu Zhao said this, she looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said, "Wan'er, announce the decree."

"Yes!"

Shangguan Wan'er held the imperial decree and took a step forward.

In an instant.

The eyes of the civil and military officials gathered on Shangguan Wan'er, carrying endless curiosity.

Wang Zhong, Zhao Ponu, Qin Zhenguo, and other old generals had their eyes focused, holding their breath inside.

Wang Zhong was envious.

He had failed; he encountered the main force of the Xiongnu Left Wise King as soon as he went out, five thousand infantry fought hard against the fierce attack of fifty thousand Xiongnu, holding on for a day and a night, and suffered heavy casualties.

This was naturally returning to be punished, and according to Great Qian's rules, he had to pay a large sum of silver.

In fact, the thing most feared about fighting a war is not defeat and how much money is fined, but that you were defeated, but your teammate burned everything and even won a monstrous victory and killed his way through.

This is the most miserable thing!

But right now, Wang Zhong was facing this situation.

"This time, I'm afraid at least two people can be ennobled as marquises? Can Xiao'er be ennobled as a marquis?"

Wang Zhong thought to himself, his heart very complicated.

He, Wang Zhong, had fought battles for a lifetime but had never been ennobled as a marquis, but Gao Yang was ennobled as Champion Marquis in one battle, and that was fine, but now even the young generals under Gao Yang were going to be ennobled as marquises; how could he balance this in his heart?

He stared fixedly at Shangguan Wan'er, waiting for a result.

Qin Zhenguo and other old generals were the same; the more people ennobled as marquises in this battle of Hexi, the less face they old men would have!

Of course, as for who was the most nervous, it was undoubtedly Li Erji, Wang Xiao, Zhao Bushi, and the Great Qian generals who followed Gao Yang, as well as the Xiongnu surrendered generals.

They were all nervous, their hearts beating fast!

Especially the Xiongnu surrendered generals like Zhao Bushi and Huyangu Du, their legs were trembling, and they were so nervous they couldn't even stand steadily.

After all, those who are not of my race must have a different heart.

They were Xiongnu people after all; could Wu Zhao justly reward merit?

Pu Duo glanced at the crowd, his mouth disdainful, extremely calm.

Look.

What is the gap, this is it!

These one or two were so nervous, they were almost pissing their pants.

How could he, Great Qian's Marquis Changqu Pu Duo, not be panicked at all?

At this time.

Shangguan Wan'er opened the imperial decree, and her cold voice echoed in the main hall.

"By the order of the Emperor, the decree says..."
