Chapter 68
Chapter 68: The female general of the country’s ruined family is the first
The death squad led by Huo Junxin raided the rear of Qi State, beheading both Yelu Liangcai, Yelu Jingyan and their son.
The Khan of Qi and the prince were killed in battle, and the accompanying generals were killed by Huo Junxin’s team.
The monarch died in front of the battle, and a new round of infighting was bound to start in Qi. Nan Zheng, I am afraid that he will not have the time to deal with it.
The crisis in Cangzhou City and Xia Kingdom was temporarily resolved.
However, the Xia Kingdom’s court was dull and weak, and the soldiers who fought for the country were not valued.
The state of Qi with wolf ambitions will not give up conquering Xia.
Huo Jun sighed inwardly. Compared with the enemy army of Qi, the faint-hearted monarch and the nefarious thief who were far away in the capital were even more terrifying.
If you want to defend your family and the country, you want to recover the rivers and mountains, just being able to fight is not enough.
However, these are not problems that she can solve at the border.
“Sir, what should we do next?” The two surviving commanders of the dead soldier knelt down in front of Huo Junxin and asked for instructions, “Can we pursue the victory and retake Yingzhou?”
Huo Jun sighed deeply, sweat soaked his whole body, and the wound on his body was aching.
This battle was short, but Huo Junxin was barely standing, and he was close to collapse. It is even harder than her, and the soldiers who are in much poorer physical condition are estimated to have reached their limit.
“Don’t chase the poor, don’t be greedy.” Huo Junxin reminded.
Being able to defend Cangzhou City today is due to the fact that the **** of heaven is beautiful, and the second is that Qi State was arrogant and underestimated the enemy and did not make strategic arrangements. With luck on her side, the plan could be implemented smoothly. If they want to take back Yingzhou and other lands taken by Qi, they still don’t have the strength.
The heads of the thousands of commanders calmed down, and although they were not reconciled, they accepted the status quo.
Cangzhou, now the last military line of defense in the Xia Kingdom, their troops are already insufficient, and they can no longer consume their troops.
Huo Junxin ordered: “Go back to the city. The wounded soldiers will file as soon as possible. The uninjured people have worked hard tonight, stick to their positions, and must not relax. Another part of the troops will be deployed to carry the dead brothers back to the city for good burial.”
“Order!” The commander stepped back and quickly started post-war work.

Huo Junxin guarded Cangzhou City for three whole days. Although the soldiers won the victory, they did not dare to relax.
Knowing that the scouts sent the information, the Qi army left 30,000 troops in Yingzhou, and the remaining troops quickly retreated and returned to the capital to go to Beijing overnight.
This news announced the victory of Cangzhou City and the victory of Xia Kingdom.
Her current mission is over.
The flag of Huo’s army fluttered in the wind, firecrackers blared in and out of the city, and the fleeing people returned to their homeland after receiving the news that “Huo Junxin beheaded Yelu and his son”.
Gongs and drums blared the sky, singing and dancing, the army and the people had fun together, and celebrated the victory together.
Huo Junxin and the surviving soldiers drink and celebrate.
Drink this wine from morning to night.
As the sky gradually darkened, Huo Junxin left the barracks with two heads and returned to the Huo family.
The Huo family is now a deserted house, empty.
At her request, the Huo family forced them to flee.
When all the lonely and widows get the news, they will all come back, and she just needs to wait at Huo’s house.
Huo Junxin walked to the front of the spirit and found that the ever-bright light had gone out.
In three days, the oil and wick of the lamp have been burned out. Huo Junxin re-lit the ever-bright lamp and placed the heads of Yelu and his son on the offering table. She had three more fragrances, and knelt before the spirit to worship.
Although she is a soul from another world, she still has to abide by the customs and rules of this world.
To avenge the deceased family members and fulfill their long-cherished wish, it is time to sacrifice before the spirit.
Huo Junxin kowtowed three times and said: “The ancestors are on top, Huo Junxin will not disgrace his mission, and behead the father and son of Yelu.”
A gentle and refreshing wind blew past, and the ever-bright lights in front of the spirit flashed neatly three times.
This is ordinary wind, it’s just a coincidence, but this one seems to hide the soul, Huo Jun can sense the response of the dead soul of the Huo family to her.
They seemed to pat her on the shoulder and say: Good work! Nice job!
The urge to cry came up and was suppressed by her again.
After the worship, Huo Jun quietly guarded the spirit of his family.
*
The Huo family’s widow and servants returned to Cangzhou on the fourth day.
Knowing that Huo Junxin’s beheading operation was successful, and the news that Xia Guo won the Qi army and retreated, no one dared to believe it was true.
When they left Cangzhou, each of them held a dagger in their hands, ready to die at any time. As for Huo Junxin’s crazy plan, they didn’t hold out hope. The chances of the assassination being successful are too low.
But Huo Junxin has won, which is really exciting!
They didn’t dare to act rashly when they got the news. What if Qi Guo didn’t give up the plan of the Southern Expedition? After waiting for a few more days, I finally waited for the news of the Qi army’s retreat.
This is the return of the whole family.
The group rushed back to Cangzhou, and the city was still celebrating.
Seeing a widow from the Huo family, the people kowtowed to thank them and even gave gifts.
Huo Junxin is heroic and unparalleled, and Huo Jiajun is the most solid and reliable guarantee for Xia Guo.
Huo’s army is full of loyalty, and both men and women are heroes!
The praise and gratitude that the relatives exchanged for their lives, the widows of the whole family responded with a smile, in fact, the mood was extremely complicated.
These praises are not pleasant, every word and every sentence is like a needle stuck in their hearts.
General Huo and all the twenty-nine men of the family sacrificed, and their first seven have not yet passed.
Is it worth it to die for the country, die for the people, and leave the whole family behind?
They would like to simply say a word of value! Even if the emperor is incompetent and treacherous officials are in power, as long as this line of defense is maintained, the family and country will be protected, thousands of people will not suffer from the war, and the sacrifice of a few families will be meaningful.
But to be honest, they don’t think it’s worth it. Why did they sacrifice their lives in **** battles, while some people were so happy in the palace? !
There are some words that cannot be said because of the urgency of the situation, and can only be kept in my heart. Now that I have won, I can’t help it.
Seeing people’s faces are wrong, I feel unhappy
After the old lady sighed, she persuaded: “Hey, let’s go home quickly, we’ll talk about what to do when we go home!”
*
Back at Huo’s house, everyone saw Huo Junxin, the hero of the Cangzhou defense battle, in front of Ling.
She knelt quietly in front of the spirit and kept the spirit, silently burning paper money for the ancestors of the Huo family.
She was also wearing a blood coat, and her face and body were covered with blood, which was not clear.
There are two human heads in front of the mourning hall. Without asking, everyone knows that they are Yelu and his son.
The Huo family is the gatekeeper, even a young woman will only feel the joy of getting her revenge when she sees the **** head, without the slightest fear.
Hearing the sound of the group returning to the house, Huo Junxin turned sideways and smiled at everyone.
Before he could say hello, the old lady came over with a cane, trembling hands and trying to hug Huo Junxin.
“Old lady be careful!” Huo Junxin backhanded the old lady.
“Jun Xin, child! You have worked hard.” The old lady was a little excited, but she was still worried: “Are you injured? Have you asked the doctor to take a look?”
The old lady wanted to use a close-fitting handkerchief to wipe off the blood stains on Huo Junxin’s heart, but when she got closer, she found the scars on her face.
Yes, how could such a risky action not be injured.
“Don’t worry, old lady, the child is fine.” Huo Junxin responded: “The doctors in the military have treated the child’s wounds, all of which are skin injuries, so it’s not in the way.”
The soldiers protected her with their lives and blood, and made way for her. She just broke a little skin, nothing.
“The doctors in the army are all big men, how dare they check carefully?!” The old lady was worried, and immediately greeted: “Sanniang, let’s take a look at Junxin.”
Luo Ying hurried forward and helped Huo Junxin back to the house to rest and check.
After examination, the injury is indeed not serious, but excessive fatigue.
Luo Ying finally gave her daughter-in-law an order to rest in bed, not letting her move at all.
“Mother, I’m really fine.” Huo Jun thought, she wanted to get up. There are some things that she must discuss with the old lady.
There is a key problem that is very difficult to solve, but it must be solved as soon as possible.
After the men of the Huo family were killed in battle, who is the commander of the Huo family now?
If they can’t decide, the court will send someone to take over.
This time to defend Cangzhou, Huo Junxin was only temporarily in command. If you want to be the commander-in-chief of the Huo family army justifiably, you must obtain the approval of the court. And the imperial court wished that the Huo family army would be disbanded from now on.
This is very troublesome.
Huo Jun expresses concern, but Luo Ying is still calm after listening.
She insisted on letting Huo Junxin rest in bed, and stuffed her less than one-year-old son into her arms.
“Since you are in good spirits, then you can take your son with you. You mother-in-law haven’t seen your child for several days, so cultivate your relationship well in the past two days.” Luo Ying said: “You can leave those messy things to us. You We are not useless if we can defend Cangzhou.”
It’s time for them to work, so rest easy!
