In the autumn of the 26th year of Tiancheng in Daning, the northern expedition of Daning ended with a great victory.

The Ministry of War has deduced countless battles that took three years to defeat the Black Martial Arts. If it really comes to a conclusion, it will take less than half a year. Emperor Ning Li Chengtang led his army to defend the ancient city with a determination. Facing the Black Martial Arts army that is nearly ten times more powerful than him, he created the myth of the ancient city. This history will always be forged in the hearts of every Ning people for generations.

His Majesty took over the fertile terrain of northern border with such a flash, which also made some people in Chang'an City feel uneasy, and the so-called plan that they were originally going to implement had to stop.

In early October of the 26th year of Tiancheng, the messengers who delivered good news in Chang'an rushed into Chang'an at a speed of three batches a day. The shouts of the victory in the northern border shocked the entire Chang'an, and soon, it would shock the entire Daning.

Your Majesty no longer needs to stay in the northern border to keep an eye on the negotiations with Liao's killing wolf. Tang Cheng and Tang Chong, plus Wang Gendong and others are enough. About 300,000 Northern Expedition Army would not retreat so quickly, but instead stationed on the front line of another ancient city. The Heiwu National Master Xin Fengyue has also returned to the Heiwu capital Xingcheng, and the northern border has returned to peace.

As batches of messengers who delivered good news continued to return to Chang'an, the rumors in Chang'an that Your Majesty had been killed by black warriors were self-defeating, and the people took to the streets to celebrate, and the entire Chang'an City became a sea of ​​celebration.

The news came back to Chang'an, and His Majesty could come back before the New Year. This news made some people who were preparing for three years feel cold.

After the war, both sides need time to recover. It is an indisputable fact that the black warriors are no longer able to counterattack. As long as they firmly defend the land they have seized, Daning's great victory will come to an end.

On the big ship, the emperor looked at Shen Leng: "Your navy has already gone to six or seven. After you go back, you can arrange for someone to do the business of the East China Sea navy. You can rest in Chang'an City for a while and let the navy's soldiers land on the ashore and fight with the black warriors with real swords and guns, but they did not suffer any losses. Instead, they will win every battle. You have been well trained."

Shen Leng lowered his head.

He has always treated his soldiers with the most stringent training method, just to make his brothers less casualties during the war. The enemy will not be sympathetic because you are weak, but will only be afraid because you are strong. The navy's warriors can fight even when they get ashore, and they will not lose to anyone. This is Shen Leng's most basic requirement for the soldiers. If he was not as ruthless as he trained his troops, perhaps this time, his people would not stop losing these things.

"Let Xin Jigong go."

Shen Leng thought about it and found that no one was available. The capable people around him left one by one and had to train them again.

Dewey Ming stayed in Rilang, Wang Gendong and Wang Kuohai stayed in the northern border, Yang Qibao followed Meng Chang'an to the eastern border, and only Chen Ran and the new Xin Jigong were left beside him. Chen Ran said that he would not leave him.

"After I go back, I will hold a competition for the various troops first, and you can choose the people at will."

The emperor said: "It is a helpless move to let the navy go ashore to fight. There is no waterway in the decisive battle, but the navy cannot fight on land all the time. I will give you two or three years to prepare for the war. The Dongjiang Navy will recover its vitality. I am still waiting for you to defeat the Sang Kingdom."

"I obey the order."

The emperor looked at Shen Leng in front of him, his eyes full of joy.

"I will also take a break after I go back. Leave the matter of the general army competition to Shi Yuanxiong. Just pick people."

The emperor's sight returned to the distance: "The purpose of my first goal of building a navy was not just to clear it up.

The flood is so simple. Why did some trivial water bandits build such a large naval team? I have always had a wish... Sailing overseas, the more you see, the more you understand the world and not be surpassed by others. The black warriors used to be stronger than Daning, but now they are not as good as Daning. Because they are self-confessed, they believe that the world is invincible. I have built a navy, destroyed the country, and opened up a passage with another land area. So I know that there are Rilang and Sad people in the world, but there are not only Rilang and Sad people in this world, but maybe there are more powerful countries in the world."

The emperor let out a sigh: "Let Daning understand the world and let the world understand the world, this is the meaning of the existence of the navy."

Chen Leng nodded, and couldn't help but feel excited when he thought of the future Naval Masters of Daning, he was in a hurry. There was really not only Daning and Heiwu in this world. Ning people all believed that there would be no one living in the Sang Kingdom any further east, but Chen Leng didn't believe that there would be people who would exist even further east of Sang Kingdom, and Heiwu would definitely be there any further north of Heiwu.

Your Majesty is right. Let Daning understand the world and let the world understand Daning. This is the purpose of the Navy.

"I plan on the days and can enter Chang'an before the New Year."

The emperor felt more and more comfortable: "After returning to Chang'an, you have to take a good look at the children. If you haven't seen each other for more than a year, you should have grown a lot taller."

His hands were holding the side of the boat, and his fingers were tapping rhythmically.

He fought for the Northern Expedition to Black Martial Arts in his life. He worked hard for more than 20 years for this goal. Now that the battle has been over, it is not the most important thing to expand territory. The most important thing is to change the pattern of Black Martial Arts. Since then, it will be difficult for Black Martial Arts to recover and compete with Daning.

For the black warriors, the end of the Ning army's northern expedition was not the end of their disaster, but the civil war was the only one.

The civil war between Xin Fengyue and Qinse will definitely be more than the two of them.

Qinse will not return to Xingcheng, she is a smart person.

"Xin Fengyue should ask Qinse to go back."

The emperor said in a plain tone: "That's because he dare not sit on that chair easily. He actually takes power with Qinse as a puppet. It's much better than sitting on that chair himself, but Qinse is not stupid. She knows what the ending will be after she goes back... I heard that Xin Fengyue always has some different thoughts about Qinse?"

Chen Leng nodded: "Yes."

Chen Leng knew it when he was at the Xifengkou in the northern border. Qinse once said that the national teacher Xin Fengyue always had inappropriate thoughts about her. When she escaped from Xingcheng, she was not only to guard against her younger brother Samburu, but more to guard against the national teacher. When Chen Leng recalled Qinse, she mentioned the fear in her eyes when she mentioned Xin Fengyue, she could understand how terrible it was for a person to become a nightmare in the heart of another person. He had experienced it.

The civil war between Heiwu may last for a long time, which is what Da Ning is willing to see.

The emperor was silent for a while and said, "If Xin Fengyue dared not be the Emperor of Khan himself, but forced Qinse to give birth to a son for him..."

Chen Leng couldn't help but shivered. Qinsei had Meng Chang'an's child. If Xin Fengyue knew about it, she would spare no effort to kill the child. In fact, the child should be about to be born, but I don't know if it was a boy or a girl. But whether it was a boy or a girl, he would face danger from birth, and he would bear the pain that other children would not bear.

His father will not be with him, his mother will fight for the last glory of the family, so he will be lonely and lonely

big.

Growing up alone is his best fate, maybe he won’t grow up.

When he thought of this cold heart, he felt a burst of pain. He couldn't help but want to write a letter to Meng Chang'an, advising Meng Chang'an to bring the child over. The child is in Daning, and with him is in Meng Chang'an, even if he is not around him, he can grow up safely and steadily. However, if he stays by Qinse's side, he will be accompanied by danger every day.

The emperor's face was very good, and his cold face became worse and worse.

Once the civil strife in Heiwu begins, it will not be a matter between the national master and Qinse. Many tribes will announce their independence from Heiwu, and some huge families will take the opportunity to raise their troops to get a share of the pie. In the next ten years, or even decades, Heiwu will be in such turmoil.

The more I think about it, the more I become more afraid.

That was not his child, but he felt very distressed.

"You have changed a lot of people, many things, but you can't change people and things beyond your ability."

The emperor seemed to see through Chen Leng's thoughts, and after a moment of silence, he said, "You should believe in the power of a mother, Qinse will fight for this child."

Chen Leng firmly believed that he was worried because Qinse would fight for this child. If Qinse insisted on giving up and she was willing to follow Meng Chang'an back to Daning, His Majesty would not be too embarrassed, but she didn't, so the choice she made was the cruelest for that child.

Qinse is to cultivate her child into the heirs of the Black Martial Royal Family.

Chen Leng nodded: "Actually, the child should have been brought back."

The emperor was silent.

He knew that Chen Leng had different experiences from ordinary people, so he could not accept the suffering of his children.

"I'll send someone to try it."

This is the choice made by the emperor because of his coldness.

Chen Leng bent down and bowed: "I, thank you Your Majesty."

"But you know, I can't change anything. I'm not omnipotent. I can let someone negotiate with Qinse, but Qinse will definitely not hand over the child to Daning. You should understand."

"I understand."

Chen Leng certainly understood that Qinse would not let this child go, no matter what.

Think about it, if it were him, he would not have made the same choice as Meng Changan. He is not Meng Changan, and Meng Changan is not him.

Before I knew it, the shadow in Chen Leng's heart was already covered and might not disappear easily.

He couldn't bear to see his children suffer, so he was unable to change.

Your Majesty is right. No matter how powerful a person is, it is not omnipotent. Even Your Majesty cannot, let alone him.

"Go back to Chang'an."

The emperor patted Chen Leng's shoulder, and this action came naturally.

"Don't think so much after returning to Chang'an. You have your own life, and it's too hard to live for others."

Chen Leng looked at the emperor, and the emperor's side face still said fatigue.

"Your Majesty is even more hardworking. Your Majesty lives for the people of the world."

The emperor's expression changed and his heart was a little warm.

“It feels hard occasionally.”

The emperor smiled: "But I am very happy, because I am here, Daning is stronger."
