Chapter 487 Sweeping Dayue, Unifying the Eight Ranks
The next day.
When the soft morning light envelopes the earth and the Qin wind floats slightly, a new day of life begins for the people on the long streets of the imperial capital.
There is a lot of traffic and a lot of people.
at this time.
News spread like wildfire that a corpse floating beside the moat in the east of the city caused a commotion among the people. People were very curious about the identity of the old man and wondered why he died tragically in the moat.
That's right.
The person who died tragically was Gu Te, one of the deans of the War Preparatory Academy. He left Chu Palace and was followed and killed by Xiao Guizi.
Xiao Guizi practiced the Xuanyin Book, and reached the lower level of the Martial Emperor Realm. He possessed the overbearing and fierce Yin Han Qi. Even though Gu Te was not even close to him in cultivation, he was still brutally killed in the end.
The news of the corpse floating outside the city spread quickly throughout the entire imperial capital, as if it had wings. The people were terrified, and those who didn't know were curious as to why an old man who was over seventy years old was beheaded.
Beside the moat.
The people were surrounded by water, and there was a sound of brisk footsteps, and Bao Zheng was seen coming from the city with a group of guards.
Two men in green shirts in the crowd, with murderous intent flashing in their eyes, looked at the body that had been covered by white cloth. They clenched their fists, and violent infuriating energy burst out from their figures.
"Go quickly, this is not the place to talk!"
A man in a green shirt almost wanted to step forward, but was dragged away from the crowd by the people next to him.
Bao Zheng led his troops to surround the scene. With angry expressions on their faces, the two men stood up and strode towards the imperial city.
In the side room of a restaurant in the east of the city, an angry voice sounded, and the two men in green shirts both had pale faces.
"The dean went to the Chu Palace yesterday but did not return. News of his murder came early this morning. It must have been the Emperor of Chu."
"In order to prevent the War Preparatory Academy from being established in the imperial city, he actually killed someone and silenced him. At this time, he must report it to the alliance and let them send people to kill Emperor Chu."
"Don't be impatient!"
"The death of the dean may not have been caused by Emperor Chu!"
"Emperor Chu's cultivation was domineering and fierce, and his pure yang energy was violent, but the dean obviously died at the hands of a warrior who possessed the most yin-cold energy."
"We haven't investigated clearly at this time, and we shouldn't make any hasty conclusions. If we fall into someone else's trick, the alliance will send troops to attack Chu and let others reap the benefits."
The older man in green shirt was thoughtful, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he spoke in a firm and powerful voice.
"Vice President, if Emperor Chu doesn't take action, it doesn't mean that his generals or warriors won't take action. My subordinates conclude that they must have something to do with Emperor Chu at this time."
The vice-president glanced sideways at the man in green shirt, raised his hand to signal him to sit down, and said: "Don't act rashly without evidence. Emperor Chu is definitely not the king we have encountered before."
"Emperor Chu is decisive in killing and his methods are vigorous and resolute. We are currently hiding in the imperial capital of Chu. If it is true that Emperor Chu wants to harm us, I believe he will soon be looking for our traces throughout the city."
The man was silent, slamming his clenched fists on the wooden table in front of him, looking very angry.
............
Chu Palace.
In the royal study.
Chu Feifan was immersed in reviewing the memorial. Xiao Guizi stepped forward lightly and put down the tea cup in his hand, but it was obvious that he was still alarmed.
Putting down the memorial in his hand, he glanced sideways at Xiao Guizi and asked, "How is it? How are you handling the matter entrusted to you?"
A confident smile appeared on Xiao Guizi's face. He raised his hand and took out a sharp blade from his sleeve. He cupped his fists and saluted: "Your Majesty, Gute's weapon, the Judge's Pen, has been beheaded and thrown into the moat outside the city. Presumably in the city."
The remnants must have received the message."
"This matter has just begun. Tell your subordinate Shenlong Secret Guards to strictly search for suspicious people in the city. If you find any remaining remnants of the Zhan Zhan Academy, report them at any time."
Xiao Guizi took the order and left. Chu Feifan got up and came down from the high platform, stretched his body, and strode outside the hall.
Looking at the dark clouds in the void, it looks like roaring black dragons entrenched under the sky.
The oppressive atmosphere enveloped the world, which was obviously a sign before the storm came.
The mountain rain is about to come and the wind fills the building.
"Crack!"
Among the dense dark clouds, a blue-purple flame flew past, and the sky was divided into two.
At the end of the sky, dark clouds rolled in, covering the sky and the sun, followed by rumbles of thunder.
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
The heavy rain fell from the sky, whipping the earth crazily. Seeing countless water splashes on the long steps in front of him, he looked gloomy and sighed softly.
"It has been three days since Qubing left for Dai Viet. I wonder how the battle situation is on the front line?"
A heavy rain lasted for several hours, the sky and the earth were dark, white smoke rose up, and the rain and fog spread thousands of miles.
At dusk.
The heavy rain stopped, the fragrance of earth filled the sky and the earth, and the rumble of horse hooves on the official road outside the imperial city was like thunder in the sky.
The three scouts were wearing coir raincoats, with Thunder Tiger Qingqi flags stuck on their backs, their horse hooves whipping the ground, splashing water floating in the void.
"Thunder Tiger Qingqi wins great victory!"
"Thunder Tiger Qingqi wins great victory!"
Mighty and powerful roars continued to be heard. The guard on the city looked at the scouts approaching outside the city, his face filled with excitement and joy.
Leihu Qingqiu won a great victory, and the scout Pegasus crossed the long street, with water droplets from his coir raincoat splashing to both sides.
In the palace.
When Xiao Guizi received the news of Lei Hu Qingqi's victory, the dust flew in his hand and he walked quickly towards the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, great news!"
"Thunder Tiger Qingqi has a great victory, General Huo has defeated Dai Viet!"
Hear the sound.
Chu Feifan placed the memorial and imperial pen on the wooden table, his figure suddenly rose up, and he hurriedly walked down the high platform.
"Victory?"
"Haha, Qubing has indeed lived up to my great trust!"
"After defeating Dayue Kingdom, Wu Chu finally unified the eighth-level empire and can be promoted to the seventh-level empire."
Chu Feifan Longyan was delighted. Now that the Chu State had defeated Dayue and was promoted to the seventh rank empire in one fell swoop, plus the cities of White Wolf, Tianluo, and other countries that had lost to the Chu State, the Chu State at this time was undoubtedly the leader of the seventh rank empire.
"Xiao Guizi, please pass on my decree that the Chu Kingdom will be unified into the eighth rank. The whole country will celebrate and order General Huo to lead the Thunder Tiger Qingqi squad back to the court!"
The excitement was palpable, and he hurried to the outside of the palace. His sharp eyes looked directly at the mountains and rivers after the rain, and his figure had a vast and incomparable aura of a king.
This time, when we sent troops to the Great Yue Kingdom, four generals, Huo Qubing, Zhao Ponu, Beishenglie, and Yingli, divided their troops into four groups and advanced together, like four torrents rushing across the grassland.
Encountered dozens of fierce battles with soldiers under Shan Li's command from the Dai Viet Kingdom. The Thunder Tiger Qingqi's equipment was unparalleled, and the warriors were one against ten.
He fought dozens of fierce battles, large and small, without any defeat. He successively killed 30,000 cavalrymen under the command of Dan Leng, the right-wing king of Dai Viet Kingdom, and captured Dan Leng alive.
The right-guard general Wu Ge was defeated and captured. More than half of his elite cavalry were killed or wounded, and more than 10,000 prisoners were taken.
At the foot of Wushan Mountain.
King Dan Li of Dayue received the news that Wu Ge and Dan Leng were captured, and he could use his elite soldiers to kill and injure many people. In shock, he knew that Dayue's national strength was exhausted, and the Chu Kingdom's Thunder Tiger Qingqiu was simply the nemesis of the prairie cavalry.
One day ago, the Battle of Wushan was launched at the foot of Wushan Mountain. Shan Li's army was defeated, and King Shan Li of Dayue was seriously injured and captured.
At this point, the Dayue Kingdom, which had dominated the eastern grassland for nearly a hundred years, became history. The soldiers of the Chu Kingdom broke the myth of the invincibility of the grassland cavalry.
The eagle soaring in the sky became a prisoner in the prison of Chu State.
At the same time, in the first year of the Chu Kingdom, the Beginning of Autumn, they sent troops to Dai Viet for the second time, and the Chu Kingdom won on all fronts.
From then on, Chu State unified the eighth-grade empire and became the most powerful existence among the seventh-grade empire.
