The reinforcements sent by the human race have been accepted by Zhao Hongji.

Following the emperor's order, he selected some seriously injured soldiers and sent them home.

But the answers from the soldiers were surprisingly consistent.

That is to rather die than come back.

In the end, at Zhao Hongji's strong request, nearly 100,000 seriously injured and dying soldiers returned to the country.

After Zhao Yuan learned about this, he personally wrote the word "hero" and gave it to them.

Because he was moved.

Would rather die than return home, what kind of spirit should this have?

They are the cutest people in this era.

As the war develops and time goes by, it has come to an end.

Of course, this is what Zhao Yuan thought.

But the actual situation still has to be decided by Zhao Hongji.

After all, I will not give you any orders from the foreign king.

This is also due to Zhao Yuan's complete trust in this uncle.

Mainly because the Supreme Emperor is still alive in this world.

As long as the Supreme Emperor was alive, the King of Tang would never have any thoughts of rebellion.

It was precisely because of this that Zhao Yuan handed over all his troops to the king of Tang.

It would be impossible for a general with a different surname to gain such trust from the emperor.

One day.

Hongdou gave birth to a son.

Zhao Changqing returned to Luoyang.

He personally named the child ‘Zhao Xuan’.

Zhao Changqing looked at this child and Zhao Xiangtian, and felt indescribable joy in his heart.

Nowadays, I can be regarded as the fourth generation living under the same roof.

After the excitement, the grandfather and grandson came to Xuanzhengli and were talking quietly.

"After this battle, we only need to vigorously develop domestic strength so that the human race's external combat capabilities will continue to rise. However, there is no need to continue fighting against the monster race unless it is absolutely necessary." Zhao Changqing warned earnestly.

Zhao Yuan asked in confusion: "Grandpa Huang, why is this?"

Zhao Changqing told him everything about the big demon he met in Beiyuan.

The important point is that the most potential threat to the human race in the future is those alien visitors, not the demon race.

Most of what he said shocked Zhao Yuan, "Grandpa Huang, if you follow what you said, not only should the human race and the monster race avoid fighting as much as possible, but it is also very likely that they will be killed in a certain period in the future.

Unite to resist that so-called alien race?"

Zhao Changqing nodded, "Originally, I wanted to tell you about this matter when your uncle attacked the hills, but it took a lot of time to go back and forth. And I have already discussed it with the Demon Saint.

Maybe we don't care about the things in the mundane world, and let humans and monsters develop according to the laws of nature.

The reason why I want to tell you so much today is that I hope that you will vigorously develop our human race’s military strength and strive to be able to protect ourselves in future wars.”

"Is the future really so cruel?" Zhao Yuan couldn't believe it.

"The future will always be cruel." Zhao Changqing is by no means alarmist.

After being stunned for a moment, Zhao Yuan asked another question, "Grandpa Huang, I don't know, who is stronger between you and that demon saint?"

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "No matter how bad your imperial grandfather is, you are still a semi-saint now. You are only one step away from becoming a true saint. You can fight that demon saint without borrowing any external power.

However, beings like them, who cut themselves off with one knife, have always been able to reach the realm of saints. Even if the accumulation of thousands of years is revealed to the world, the cultivation of low-level people may be improved.

All in all, if he reaches the highest level, the emperor might not be left behind if he uses the magical weapons forged by the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."

What's more, Zhao Changqing still has an unquenchable fire in his body.

This kind of flame can increase human combat power to a certain limit.

Moreover, Zhao Changqing is the Human Emperor and has long used various methods to increase the power of the immortal fire to the highest level.

After leaving Luoyang, his whereabouts are unknown.

Zhao Yuan knew that this ancestor came and went without a trace, so he did not ask any more questions.

Half a year later.

A blitzkrieg came to an end.

Zhao Hongji not only captured the demon clan's capital, but also attacked all the way to the demon clan's mother river - Yiluo River.

Then he went all the way north and captured the demon clan's holy mountain with almost no effort.

In the holy mountain, he was granted a memorial ceremony to comfort the heroic spirits of the human race who died in this battle.

The story of the Fengchan Holy Mountain was later widely spread.

Except for this battle, Zhao Hongji never led an army in a real decisive battle alone. Basically, he was controlled by the emperor.

But in this battle, for the first time he took command and went on an expedition, he achieved a level that would be difficult for future generals to achieve in their lifetimes. It is really amazing.

After sealing the Holy Mountain, the demon clan formally surrendered.

Zhao Hongji originally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack and fight against the monsters, but Zhao Yuan ordered him to station the army near the holy mountain and not make any more rash advances.

It means I won't let you hit me.

I have the final say whether to fight next or not.

In this regard, Zhao Hongji, who was the king of Tang and the commander-in-chief of the three armies, expressed his helplessness.

But he knew that it was impossible for the demon clan to be wiped out by him.

This battle ends here, which may be a good result.

Next, it’s time for negotiation.

Since the demon tribe took the initiative to beg for mercy, the demon tribe should also be responsible for any losses after the war.

The demon clan has only one condition, which is to return to the demon clan's capital and the more than three thousand miles of land outside the capital.

This condition was decisively rejected by Zhao Yuan.

He asked Lu Zaixing to enter the demon realm.

Taking advantage of this period of time, I also want to deliberately temper this prime minister who is always worried about the country and the people.

Zhao Yuan told him that the greatest extent accepted by the human race was to return the objects that fell into the river to their original owners.

After a heated discussion, the demon clan was naturally unwilling to agree.

But there is no way.

I can only endure it temporarily.

After waiting for most of Zhao Hongji's army to return to the court, Zhao Yuan made another concession.

That is, all the princes, princesses, and princes of the demon clan will be given to the human race as hostages. Otherwise, the demon clan’s capital will never be returned.

The demon tribe had no choice but to do this.

After returning the demon clan's capital, the demon clan realized that everything was wrong.

The human race doesn’t trust people.

They said the capital was returned, but they really only returned the capital. Not even an inch of the land outside the capital was given back.

In this way, the demon clan's capital city is always exposed to the human race's sight. Can it still be called a capital city?

This is tantamount to strangling the lifeblood of the demon clan!

Moreover, the most critical point is that even the old demon emperor's many princes and princesses have to go to Luoyang as hostages.

This time, the ancestors' face was really brought to shame.

But who could have imagined that the current human emperor could be so courageous?

How dare you learn from the first generation of the Emperor and send an army to fight all the way?

Aren't you afraid of a mutiny?

No matter what, after this battle, Zhao Hongji will be famous all over the world, and in the future, it will even shock the annals of history.

As for all the military officers and soldiers who went abroad to fight, they all enjoyed the title of heroes.

This year is the most glorious year for the military profession.

Also starting from this year, going forward, soldiers will also become synonymous with heroes.

Their status was infinitely elevated by Zhao Yuan.

It is they who are resisting foreign enemies and defending their homeland.

They deserve enough respect.

However, compared to the above two points, what is more important is the submission of the demon clan to the human clan.
