Duan Lingtian was also infected by the atmosphere, stood up, and drank it all in one gulp.
In his previous life, he had a military background, and he quickly became mingled with the hundreds of thousands of soldiers present, drinking until late at night before taking a rest.
Early the next morning.
The group of people left Nanman City and headed towards the Chixiao Kingdom.
It is the ‘Red Flood Dragon Army’!
Now that Nanman City has been completely captured, the next thing to do is to deal with the border troops.
As reinforcements, their mission has been completed.
Now, return to the imperial city!
The Red Dragon Army's tens of thousands of horses crossed the Hengduan Mountains and arrived at the "Shaoxing City" of the Red Xiao Kingdom in just a few hours.
The residents of Shaoxing City stood outside the city, watching the red dragon army retreat, and they were all excited.
Late at night last night, a cavalry team from the border army brought back the news of the capture of 'Nanman City', which made many residents of Nanman City so excited that they could not sleep all night.
"The Red Dragon Army shows off its might once again!"
"This time the Red Dragon Army was able to successfully raid, thanks to the young military advisor 'Duan Lingtian'."
"It's incredible... a mere eighteen-year-old boy could actually command an army of one hundred thousand men and capture Nanman City without losing a single soldier."
"From today on, this Duan Lingtian will be famous in the Chixiao Kingdom and will be famous for generations to come!"
"Hmph! Now I think of the prime minister's son 'Gu Xuan' again. He is incomparable to Duan Lingtian! At the beginning, he had an army of 110,000 men. Not only did he fail to break through Nanman City, but he also killed tens of thousands of border troops.
Soldiers."
"Gu Xuan? In my eyes, he is not even as good as Duan Lingtian's hair. He is still the son of the prime minister. It really brings shame to our Chixiao Kingdom!"
…
The residents of Shaoxing City deeply remember the name 'Duan Lingtian', and also deeply remember the name 'Gu Xuan'.
The former, let them respect.
The latter makes them despise.
The red dragon army came in mighty force and returned in mighty force.
Overall, this reinforcement trip was considered a complete success.
At the front of this 10,000-person team, Duan Lingtian and Nie Fen rode side by side, with the taciturn old man following behind them, like a shadow.
"Go back!"
"When we go back this time, we don't know what His Majesty the Emperor will reward us."
"Our rewards should be similar... I am curious about what His Majesty the Emperor will reward 'Duan Lingtian'."
…
A group of students from Shengwu Academy were discussing animatedly.
Duan Lingtian can be said to be the core force in the capture of 'Nanman City' this time. Without Duan Lingtian, the Chixiao Kingdom's army would not have been able to do that step.
Duan Lingtian's reward must be the largest and the highest level.
They have no doubt about this.
Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun walked side by side, with knowing smiles on their faces. This trip to the battlefield made their blood boil and they were extremely happy!
"When I go back this time, that guy Tian Hu will definitely complain again."
"That's for sure."
Both of them had bright smiles on their faces.
Two months later, the group returned to the imperial city again.
"Xiaotian, you will bring the people from the Holy Martial Academy back personally... I will take the soldiers of the Red Dragon Army back to the camp first, and then I will go to my father and enter the palace together to meet His Majesty."
Outside the imperial city, Nie Fen said to Duan Lingtian.
The Red Dragon Army camp is outside the imperial city.
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"Students from Shengwu Academy, follow Duan Lingtian back!"
Nie Fen ordered loudly.
Immediately, a group of people from the Shengwu Academy headed by Duan Lingtian entered the imperial city in a mighty manner.
When we left, there were a total of 312 students from Shengwu Academy.
Now, there are three hundred and eleven people.
The missing person is none other than 'Gu Xuan' who left Shaoxing City more than two months ago.
He is also the son of Gu Youting, the Prime Minister of Chixiao Kingdom.
Duan Lingtian and his party returned to Shengwu Academy, causing a huge sensation without any surprise.
"They're back so soon?"
"Yes, from here to the northwest border, even if you ride on horseback, it will take at least four months... Now, they came back in less than five months. In other words, they stayed at the northwest border for less than a month.
moon."
"Is the army of Nanzhao Kingdom so useless?"
…
Now, in the afternoon, many Shengwu Academy students gathered in the Shengwu Academy's martial arts performance field, and they were talking about it.
Soon, as the group of students who came back behind Duan Lingtian merged with them, they soon learned the ins and outs of the matter...
The Chixiao Kingdom’s army captured Nanzhao Kingdom’s ‘Nanman City’ without wasting a single soldier!
Those students who did not go to the northwest border were confused.
When they knew that all this was due to Duan Lingtian, they looked at Duan Lingtian again, full of awe.
Whether it is a junior student or a senior student!
Duan Lingtian, who was the center of attention, saw a group of students returning to Shengwu Academy. He said hello to Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun, and then went home directly.
Standing at the door of his house, Duan Lingtian's breathing became a little rapid.
Back!
As Xiong Quan opened the door of the house, Duan Lingtian stepped in.
"Master!"
"Master!"
…
In the front yard, the housekeeper Jingru and two maids saluted Duan Lingtian respectfully.
After Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled at them, he couldn't wait to walk into the backyard.
In the backyard, two girls were sitting around Li Rou, seemingly unaware of Duan Lingtian's return.
"Tian'er!"
It wasn't until Li Rou discovered Duan Lingtian that the two girls reacted as if they had been struck by lightning.
"Mom, I'm back!"
A bright smile appeared on Duan Lingtian's face.
In a few days, it will be five months since he left.
"It'll be good when you come back, it'll be good when you come back."
A smile appeared on Li Rou's face, and she obviously breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master!"
"Bad guy!"
The two little girls turned into two waves of fragrant wind, and rushed into Duan Lingtian's arms, one on the left and the other on the right, and hugged Duan Lingtian tightly.
"I'm back."
Duan Lingtian held the two girls in his arms, and his brows revealed a bit of excitement.
"Hiss~~"
At this moment, two bolts of lightning, one black and one white, flew over and landed directly on Duan Lingtian's hand. He nodded lightly to Duan Lingtian, as if to welcome Duan Lingtian back.
"Haha! Xiaobai, Xiaohei."
Duan Lingtian laughed and greeted the two little pythons.
A whole afternoon and a whole night.
Duan Lingtian left everything behind and stayed in the spacious room with the two little girls, turning everything upside down...
It wasn't until late at night that I fell asleep with two little girls who looked satisfied in their arms.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian didn't know.
Today, throughout the imperial city, many people are destined to have no sleep.
In the afternoon, as Shenwei Hou ‘Nie Yuan’ and his son entered the palace, the war on the northwest border also spread from the palace...
The Chixiao Kingdom’s army captured Nanzhao Kingdom’s ‘Nanman City’ in one go!
But it was not the commander of the Red Dragon Army, 'Nie Fen', nor the general of the border army, 'He Weian', who was the first to bear the blame.
But ‘Duan Lingtian’!
The name Duan Lingtian once again swept across the imperial city and became a hotly debated topic in every restaurant.
"I really didn't expect that Duan Lingtian is not only extremely talented in martial arts, but he is also so awesome in marching and fighting... He has absolutely no plan left and is invincible in every battle!"
"All-rounder, all-rounder! It's really a blessing for our Chixiao Kingdom to have Duan Lingtian!"
"Yes, Duan Lingtian is indeed an unparalleled genius! However, compared with Duan Lingtian, Prime Minister Gu's son 'Gu Xuan' is a 'wonder'!"
"It's really weird! The 110,000-strong army obeyed his orders, and even tens of thousands of people died without even touching the walls of Nanman City... while the Nanzhao Kingdom's army suffered less than a thousand casualties!"
"Why are you the prime minister's son? Damn you!"
…
Whether it is the outer city of the imperial city or the inner city, similar remarks are everywhere.
They are all promoting Duan Lingtian and belittling Gu Xuan.
After all, the two formed a sharp contrast.
Unlike the bustle in the imperial city, there was dead silence in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
In the spacious hall.
A middle-aged man of medium build dressed as a scholar stood there, pacing back and forth.
"Master Prime Minister!"
Soon, an old man stepped in.
The old man's eyes were as bright as stars, his steps were steady, and his cultivation was obviously not low.
"How about it?"
The middle-aged man asked in a deep voice. Although there was no expression on the surface, his anxious eyes completely exposed his anxious heart at the moment.
"Master Xiang, I went to ask... They said that two months ago, the young master had left Shaoxing City alone and returned to the Imperial City!"
The old man said slowly.
"What?!"
The middle-aged man's expression changed and his pupils shrank, "What's going on?"
"Master Prime Minister, it is said that nearly 90,000 soldiers from the border army asked General He Wei'an for orders to kill the young master...Later, General He Wei'an privately let the young master leave for the sake of the young master's safety."
The old man said again.
"Xuan'er! How could you leave alone."
The middle-aged man's pupils shrank, and he felt a little lost...
As the prime minister of the Chixiao Kingdom, Gu Youting has extraordinary wisdom that is difficult for ordinary people to match.
He knew that his son was most likely killed!
However, he could only suffer the loss of being dumb.
Because the border troops can no longer be blamed for this incident...
"How is the news outside now?"
Gu Youting took a deep breath, his wise eyes showed a hint of aura, and he forced his grief deep in his heart.
When the old man heard this, he hesitated a little.
"Don't worry, just say it!"
Gu Youting looked at the old man with lightning eyes.
"yes."
The old man nodded and told Gu Youting truthfully some of the discussions that were now spreading throughout the imperial city.
After finishing speaking, the old man also had a wry smile on his lips.
"Duan Lingtian? He is indeed an extraordinary talent."
Gu Youting took a deep breath, with a murderous intent pulsing in his eyes, "However, as far as I know, this Duan Lingtian and Xuan'er seem to have had conflicts for a long time, right?"
