Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1291

In a military camp in Mengmian, where a plague has broken out.

Gao Tianwang remained standing in front of the table in the military tent, his eyes fixed on the map on it.

But anyone who gets close can tell that while he appears to be staring at the map, he is actually somewhat distracted.

In fact, Gao Tianwang was worried about Wei Wu. After all, Siam had more than 50,000 troops, while Wei Wu was all alone.

He himself bears a great deal of responsibility for the outbreak of plague in the military camp. If Wei Wu were to have an accident here, he would be finished.

Just as Gao Tianwang was feeling uneasy, a soldier's shout suddenly came from outside the military tent.

"General, I have something important to report!"

"Come in!"

Gao Tianwang assumed that the scout had brought back the message, so he immediately told his subordinates to come in.

Then the soldiers outside pushed open the tent flap and came in. Gao Tianwang turned his head and saw that the soldiers were actually laughing.

Seeing this, Gao Tianwang frowned and asked a question with a puzzled look.

What makes you so happy?

"General, good news! Lord Zhenguo just came to the military camp and asked me to pass on a message to you."

"The Duke of Zhenguo is back?"

Gao Tianwang's eyes lit up, and he quickly walked up to the soldier, asking in a somewhat impatient tone:

"Now that you're back, why didn't you come in?"

Upon hearing this, the soldier quickly responded with a cupped-hand salute.

"General, the Duke of Zhenguo has already left. He said he has to rush back to the capital and will not be able to see you, General."

"He also said that if we have the chance to meet again in the future, or if you, General, come to the capital, we must have a good drink together."

Gao Tianwang looked at the soldier with some curiosity, hesitated for a moment before asking:

"Duke Zhenguo only sent you with this message? Didn't he mention the state of the war ahead?"

"No, General, those were the words Lord Zhenguo said before he left. That's not what he asked me to take with me."

Upon hearing the soldier's reply, Gao Tianwang immediately raised his hand and slapped the soldier on the back of the head.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? Don't you know that things should be prioritized?"

"General, I... I was wrong."

The soldier apologized somewhat aggrievedly, but seeing Gao Tianwang preparing to attack again, he realized what was happening and quickly said:

"Lord Zhenguo asked me to tell you that the problem of the Siamese invasion has been resolved, and all 50,000 soldiers perished in the fire."

"The exact location is the place I asked you about in the military tent before, but the fire is still burning."

"I'll have you wait a couple of days until the fire has burned far away, then send someone to check the edge of the woods. You should be able to find the enemy's ashes."

After hearing what the soldier said, Gao Tianwang was stunned. After a long while, he muttered to himself:

"They really did it!! Two people wiped out a Siamese army of 50,000! This is just too unbelievable!!"

Coming to his senses, Gao Tianwang immediately looked at the soldier and gave the order:

"Pass on my order: immediately send a message to the scouts, instructing them to keep an eye on that woodland and ensure that no one escapes."

"In addition, once the forest fire has subsided, we will send the message back as soon as possible."

The soldier did not hesitate, responded, and immediately turned and left the tent to issue orders.

Meanwhile, Wei Wu had already taken Shen Lin on their journey back to the capital.

Although the journey back to Beijing was long, the two of them returned in just one day thanks to the helicopter.

After landing, Wei Wu went home to see his wife immediately, but unfortunately, before they could exchange more than a few words, Eunuch Wang arrived.

Looking at the smiling eunuch Wang, Wei Wu's face was filled with helplessness.

"Hey Lao Wang, I just got home and haven't even had a chance to talk to my wife for a few minutes before you arrive. Is it really necessary to be in such a hurry?"

"Your Excellency may speak with the Princess first. I will wait outside until you have finished speaking before entering the palace."

"Oh well, never mind!"

Wei Wu replied with a helpless expression, then turned to look at Zhu Yuxuan.

"Yuxuan, I'll go to the palace first, and then I'll spend more time with you when I get back."
