Chapter 952 - 948: The Strength of the Entire Nation
The King of Anxi fell back, the entire army... was annihilated! Anxi only had so little remaining resources!
The expression on the King of Guangan’s face was also extremely poor.
"Minister Shen, you’ve worked hard." Bai Qingyan nodded to Shen Tianzhi.
After the young eunuch led Shen Tianzhi to his seat, Qingzhu brought the terrified families of the Kings of Guangan and Baishui into the grand hall.
With a stride full of vigor, Qingzhu tossed the sword from his waist to the imperial guards at the door and then led the way into the hall. He knelt at the center of the hall, clasped his fists, and said, "Shen Qingzhu, by order, has brought the families of the Vassal Kings of Guangan and Baishui to Dadu City. Generals Wei Zhaonian and Cheng Yuanzhi have taken command of the garrison at Guangan and Baishui. I am here to report back."
This time, even the King of Guangan’s spine collapsed; the Bai family army had taken over the Guangan garrison, meaning they had taken over their home base!
In hindsight, they should not have naively attended the enthronement ceremony but rather guarded their own fiefs. Even if Bai Qingyan sent people to attack, there would still be some weighing to do. It wasn’t so easy to lose everything!
What a blunder!
"Thank you for your hard work; take a seat beside General Shen Kunyang!" Bai Qingyan said to Shen Qingzhu.
Shen Qingzhu agreed and thanked her, taking his seat beside his godfather, Shen Kunyang.
