Everything is difficult at the beginning. After condensing a little talisman seal, Ying Qi's cultivation after cultivation became more and more rapid.

In the afternoon, he successfully condensed the vertical line in the middle of the "orthodox seal".

The rapid progress and improvement also greatly boosted Ying Qi's spirit and continued to step up his cultivation.

...

Just as Ying Qi and Erhu were practicing each other, the entire Liaodong in the late Ming world, the important towns on the nine sides, inside and outside the Great Wall, and even inside the capital, were already in an uproar, the government and the country were shaking, and people were panicked.

The first defeat of the Du Song tribe and the remaining troops of the Malin tribe, which had already spread the news of Sarhu's defeat all the way to Kaiyuan, Tieling and Fushun Pass.

The towns in Liaodong were shocked and frightened. Wenshutang reported to pass through various fast horses, like snowflakes, and into the capital.

...

Capital, Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"I don't believe it! I absolutely don't believe it!" Emperor Wanli, who was nearly 60 years old, had white lips and red eyes. He pointed at the court officials who were covered in black and black, and shouted sternly: "Du Song's troops have 60,000 people, and the Marin troops have 50,000! There are 110,000 troops in total! In just two days, they were all destroyed by slave thieves?"

Emperor Wanli slapped the report on the table, "My 110,000 troops were wiped out, and he killed only two or three hundred slave thieves? Who will tell me? Who will tell me, what's going on?"

"Your Majesty." His Highness, Minister of War Huang Jiashan, gritted his teeth and stepped out. "Your Majesty calmed down. The war has not yet ended yet. Most of the local war reports learned from the defeated soldiers and the secret spies sent by us. The defeated soldiers often exaggerate the enemy to hide their shame of defeat. Most of our secret spies cannot contact the senior management of Jiannu. The superficial information collected must have been deliberately released by Nurhaci to disrupt our military morale!"

"What about Liu Ying? Liu Ying sent back the war report a few days ago, saying that he had destroyed more than ten slave thieves in a row. What's going on now?"

Emperor Wanli gasped, furious in his chest, and then asked Huang Jiashan.

"This..." Huang Jiashan lowered his head and reported, "Yang Hao, the governor of Liaodong, sent a report on the battle this morning. Because the army and horses of the Korea were slow, General Liu Ying abandoned them behind and left 4,000 Zhejiang soldiers to supervise. General Liu Ying brought more than 20,000 main force to march. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at Abudagang, he was ambushed and surrounded by tens of thousands of slave thieves... When the fast horses who had received the return had left, most of the troops of General Liu Ying had lost. The four thousand Zhejiang soldiers received the news and had abandoned the Korean army and went to rescue General Liu Ying's main force..."

"Teng!"

Emperor Wanli stood up, shook his body twice, and said reluctantly: "I still have a large army, where is Li Rubai?"

"Li Rubai's march was slow and he received the news that the two armies had failed. After Liu Ying was in trouble, he set up camp on the spot and asked Yang Hao, the governor of Liaodong. Yang Hao was worried that our army would lose its main force in the end, so he ordered Li Rubai to withdraw... When Li Rubai retreated, he was disturbed by dozens of snares of Jiannu and thought that the main force of Jiannu had arrived. In horror, the three armies stepped on themselves and lost thousands of troops."

Huang Jiashan's forehead was sweating coldly and he tried his best to report.

“…”

When Emperor Wanli heard this, his originally shaking body suddenly stiffened.

After a while, he suddenly turned around and walked towards the back hall, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it... You bastards are all lying to me..."

"call!"

Emperor Wanli fell backwards straight.

"His Majesty……"

Several eunuchs accompanied him hurriedly forward and supported him.

"I... my army of more than 100,000... wuwu..." Emperor Wanli burst into tears after awakening, broke free from the support of several eunuchs, and pointed to his ministers and said, "Transfer my order! I want to kill Yang Hao, Li Rubai, Ma Lin, and Zhou Yongchun and Wang Keshou... I want to kill all of them! I want to comfort my soldiers who died...wuwuwu..."

At the end of the talk, Emperor Wanli stamped his feet and beat his chest, and tears flowed.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty cannot..." Your Highness's Chief Auxiliary Fang Congzhe quickly stepped out and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, our army has been defeated, and Liaodong is in danger. Don't force them too much... Your Majesty, at this moment, the order is now to temporarily comfort the generals, let them guard all the cities in Liaodong, and beware of Nurhaci taking advantage of the victory to capture Kaiyuan, Tieling, Liaoyang and other cities!"

"Woooooooooooooo...wow...whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Emperor Wanli was still sad and reluctantly asked Fang Congzhe.

"Your Majesty should issue an order, for the time being..." Fang Congzhe reiterated the previous suggestion.

"Okay, you can do whatever you say... but I will order the towns in Liaodong to send all the scouts. I must know what happened to this battle, why did my army of more than 100,000 will be destroyed... Cough cough cough..."

Emperor Wanli was sad and coughed violently again.

"Yes. Your Majesty calms down and take care of the dragon's body."

The chief assistant Fang Congzhe hurriedly bowed and agreed.

After a while, Emperor Wanli stopped coughing and glanced at the ministers below, "Where is Luo Sigong?"

"I'm here!"

His Highness walked out quickly.

After this person walked out, many of the ministers in the hall immediately shrank their necks.

Luo Sigong is the commander of the Jinyiwei. When the Jinyiwei is dispatched, it usually means that someone will be in trouble.

"Luo Sigong, I ordered you to go to Liaodong to supervise this matter in person. Within a month, I must clearly know all the past and after this battle. If someone dares not cooperate, you will be given the right to kill on the spot... I don't believe it. Can't my great Ming Dynasty have a whole army that can win a small victory in this battle?"

After plucking up his spirits and issuing this holy edict, Emperor Wanli seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and with a thud, he collapsed on the dragon throne.

...

...

Soon, another two days passed.

Erhu and his party tried to rest during the day and rush to the road at night, walking through many mountainous and river roads in Liaodong, rushing all the way to Kuandian Liubao.

"Strange, today we encountered two groups of Jiannu siege cavalry." In a forest, Wu Buneng searched for useful objects such as dry food and water from the body of a soldier in the Hou Jin Dynasty, while looking at Gou Sandao beside him.

"With Brother Hu here, these Jiannu are all giving us supplies! Hahaha..."

Gou San searched for another corpse while laughing.

On the other hand, Tie Huaiyi felt aroused when he heard this.

"Erhu, we are afraid we will meet Jiannu Brigade!"

Tie Huaiyi suddenly turned his head and said to Erhu who was drinking water beside him.

"Uh... I won't be so memorized, right?"

Erhu put down his water bag and stood up.

"Chirky...beep and silly...chilling..."

Almost at the same time, a few bird calls came from a big tree in the distance.

"Quick! Hide the corpse!"
Chapter completed!
