079 “Blessing from Heavenly Official” Chapter 78
by☆, Chapter 78 Prince Ping Yongan goes to the battlefield
Feng Xin and Mu Qing behind him were both startled and said: “Your Highness!” They immediately rushed out and guarded him.
However, the people on the entire Shenwu Street had already seen the young man in white who appeared in the middle of the street directly in front.The parade was confused for a while and then reorganized.Thousands of people surrounded Xie Lian in layers. The first person said uncertainly: “Are you… are you His Highness the Crown Prince?”
The second person hesitated: “It’s not that His Royal Highness has ascended. He is no longer a mortal. How could he appear here?”
The third person shouted loudly: “It’s him! Three years ago when Shangyuan offered sacrifices to Tianyou, the one I saw with my own eyes was His Highness the Crown Prince!”
More and more people recognized the Martial God they worshiped day and night. They thanked him and said slowly: “It’s me. I’m back.”
So people went crazy.
“God comes to the world! This is a living god coming to the world!”
“Heaven has descended to earth!”
“Your Highness must have come down because he couldn’t bear to see us being bullied by thieves like this again!”
Someone immediately asked with great hope: “Your Highness, will you lead us to defeat the Yong’an people? You will definitely do it? That must be the case!”
After a moment of pause, Xie Lian said calmly: “I came back to protect Xianle Kingdom and my people.”
Feng Xin and Mu Qing beside him heard this sentence and were not sure what it meant. However, the passionate citizens understood the meaning of this sentence wishfully.Xie Lian had his own thoughts, and his heart beat harder and harder. He gritted his teeth and said: “…Believe me!”
He clenched his fists and said: “Your faith will give me stronger power. With this power, I will fight to the death to protect Xianle and the common people. Please believe me!”
This is the moment that people have been waiting for, and what they want is his guarantee. They immediately cheered enthusiastically, and walked in circles to worship His Highness the Crown Prince in the center, saying: “I will follow you to the death! Follow Your Highness!”
“Defend Xianle!”
When the people of the Imperial City heard about the saying that “gods descended to earth”, they all poured out of the streets and alleys just to see this rare miracle. Even the Imperial City guards who came after hearing the news did not dare to act boldly and joined in the worship.The three of them were trapped in the middle of the street, unable to move. Feng Xin and Mu Qing had to try their best to maintain order, shouting: “Don’t crowd, don’t crowd!”
However, it didn’t have much effect. Everyone wanted to squeeze in to the place closest to His Royal Highness, and touch the corner of the clothes of this god from heaven, as if his whole person was enlightened.Finally, the monarch in the palace was alerted, and several generals were sent out with fully armed soldiers, and then the fanatical crowd was driven away.
After everyone dispersed, Xie Lian saw something on the ground where there were messy footprints and flying dust. He walked closer and leaned down to pick it up.
That’s a flower.It was trampled by many people and was almost turned into the color of earth.There are only a few remaining petals, and you can see a little bit of the original white color.
The faint fragrance was not the same as before, and it dissipated after a while.
After thinking about something, Xie Lian returned to the palace this time and his attitude towards the king was much softer.As a result, the king’s attitude toward him softened a lot. The father and son each took a step back, and they finally reached a temporary peace.The Imperial Master seemed to have expected Xie Lian to come down and said nothing.
Xie Lian used to think that it was natural for a country to have one heart and everyone would listen to the leader of the country when it came to major issues.However, when he actually sat down to participate, he realized firsthand that the head of the country was a position with many worries.The ministers of a dynasty are actually divided into many small factions. Each faction has its own plan. They can argue endlessly for seven days about how to decide on a major event.Everyone and every faction claims that they are serving the country and the people, but in fact they may not necessarily think so in their hearts.
For the Yong’an people who were stationed outside the city and formally planned to fight against each other, their opinions could not be unified for a long time.Some people advocate sending troops to exterminate them directly, and if there are not enough reasons, they can make up as many charges as possible, but some people do not think so.
The Yong’an Rebellion started from natural disasters and broke out from man-made disasters. The three members of the family who fell to death at the gate of the imperial city were the worst possible introduction. If the general who cut off the rope had not had his neck broken by Lang Ying’s bare hands, he would have been severely punished when he came back.To put it harshly, no matter how complicated it is and how many reasons there are, on the surface, this matter is a rebellion forced by the government and the people.The matter has reached this point and has caused a huge fuss. If you accuse someone of it, it will only aggravate the resentment. You can’t hide it from anyone no matter what excuse you make up.If the army is sent to exterminate, it is difficult to call the master of benevolence and righteousness a master who has shown his innocence.He is more vocal about defending against the people than against Sichuan. Once a reputation for cruelty is left, not only will he not be able to convince the people, but he will also fear that other nearby countries will take the opportunity to cause trouble in the name of justice for heaven.Thinking about it again, what do these Yongan people have to be afraid of?They are nesting in the mountains and forests with no food or weapons. How long can they continue to cause trouble?
Therefore, in the end, it was the latter idea that prevailed: if the Yong’an people dare to invade, kill them once and for all; if they don’t invade, let them fend for themselves. There is no need for Xianle to waste any soldiers.
As a god of war, Xie Lian came down to earth, so he naturally had to play his role on the battlefield.Therefore, the young people in the army must vigorously advocate: The side with His Highness the Prince is the side of justice, and the army with His Highness the Prince is the Army of God!
Suddenly, a large number of young men across the country enthusiastically joined the army. In just a few months, the number of soldiers in the Xianle Kingdom doubled.The commotion was so loud that Yongan seemed to have gotten the news.Originally, their activities were relatively frequent, in small groups, but suddenly they became silent, as if they were afraid, and were secretly gathering strength, which made the soldiers on Xianle’s side very nervous. They spared no effort to describe to Xie Lian how terrifying “Lang Ying, who always rushes to the front every time” is.Hearing this name and thinking of the child’s corpse he saw that day, Xie Lian always felt slightly mixed.
Two months later, the Yongan people, who had been angry for some time, finally launched another attack.
In this scene, Xie Lian only brought a light sword into the battle and didn’t even wear any armor.In less than half an hour, the battle was over.
In the overwhelming bloody atmosphere, the remaining Yong’an soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor and ran away.Before the soldiers of Xianle Kingdom could react at all, they saw all the fallen figures everywhere, and no enemy could still stand.As for their Crown Prince, he slowly put his sword into its sheath without even getting a piece of his clothes dirty.
After a while, they confirmed their overwhelming victory, jumped up, raised their swords to the sky, and shouted heartily.
That night, the Xianle soldiers held a celebration banquet on the tower.
The soldiers had not been so proud for a long time. They cheered and raised their glasses to praise His Highness the Crown Prince.Xie Lian pushed away all the wine and went to the corner of the tower to sober up in the night breeze.
He clearly hadn’t drank a glass of wine, but he could feel his face burning with enthusiasm and flushing, and his fingertips were still trembling slightly.
This is the first time in Xie Lian’s life that he has killed anyone.The first time, he killed thousands of people.
Ants.
These two words appeared repeatedly in my mind.Mortals are vulnerable to his power, and no one can even withstand his gentle grasp.Taking away the lives of others was so easy, just like the palace man trampling those ants to death, making him almost lose his sense of awe while swinging his sword.
Xie Lian leaned against the female wall, took a few deep breaths, shook his head to get rid of the noise, and stared at the lights in the mountain col in the distance.Soon, two footsteps approached.
Without looking back, he knew who was coming.Xie Lian said: “Why don’t you go have some drinks to celebrate?”
Mu Qing hummed: “What is there to drink? The situation is not optimistic.”
Hearing this, Xie Lian turned around and said, “Did you also see it?”
It’s really not optimistic.Although this battle was won, in fact, this attack was stronger than any previous attack by the Yongan people.
Not only were there more people, their formations, weapons, and coordination had all made a qualitative leap.Many are even equipped with armor.Although it is crude and shabby, it is already the size of a regular army.It’s hard to imagine that these are actually a bunch of grassroots idiots.
Mu Qing crossed her arms and frowned: “Extremely difficult environments will indeed make people grow rapidly. But no matter how difficult and difficult it is, materials will not be produced out of thin air. Something is wrong.”
Feng Xin said more directly and concisely: “They must have foreign aid.”
Xie Lian nodded.Mu Qing said: “I don’t believe that no one can see these soldiers. But they still celebrate, just because you are here, they feel that they will win without a doubt.”
Xie Lian thought this was nothing, and said: “I won the first battle here. It’s good for them to be happy, just to boost their morale.”
Feng Xin hesitated for a moment, then said: “Your Highness, your face is not very good. Are you still raining in Yong’an?”
Thanks for the pity: “Yeah.”
Mu Qing showed no surprise in her disapproval and said: “With all due respect, the rainfall is useless now. It is a bottomless pit. Your Highness, even if the drought in Yong’an can be completely alleviated, the group of people outside the city will probably not retreat.”
Xie Lian said: “I know. But I went to rain, not to let this group of people retreat, but to prevent those who are still in Yong’an from dying of thirst. And this is my original purpose, and it will not change because of anything.”
Feng Xin still felt uneasy and said, “Can you hold on?”
Xie Lian patted him on the shoulder and said: “Don’t worry, I have eight thousand temples, and there are enough believers, of course there is no problem. But.”
He put his other hand around Mu Qing’s shoulder and sighed: “Fortunately, you two helped me today. Thank you for accompanying me.”
On the battlefield today, his two attendants suffered much more than him, and they were covered in blood.Feng Chuang: “There is no need to say this anymore.” Mu Qing said a vague “Huh”.
Thanks to a slight exertion on his hand, he drew the relationship between the three people closer, and said sincerely: “Not only today, but also all the time, I am very grateful to you two. I hope that the three of us fighting side by side will be remembered forever.”
“…”
“…”
After a while, Feng Xin laughed loudly.Mu Qing said in disbelief: “I find that you can always say some very… things confidently. This is really…” He shook his head and said, “That’s all.”
Thanks to the effort, the corners of Xie Lian’s mouth slightly rose.He didn’t laugh for long, then suddenly he looked serious and said: “Who?!”
With a “clang” sound, Xie Lian’s sword was unsheathed.He gently picked out a dark shadow from the corner next to the female wall.
The man hid in this corner for a long time, holding his breath and concentrating, but he was never noticed.Xie Lian originally just wanted to scare him by hanging him up with the tip of the sword, but he didn’t know that he killed people very hard on the battlefield today. His arms were shaking slightly, and his shot was a bit unheeded. He didn’t pick it carefully and used too much force, which directly pushed the man off the wall.
Under the moonlight, in mid-air, the three of them could clearly see that this man was wearing the clothes of one of his own soldiers, and he looked like a boy in his mid-fifties.After a moment, it fell down and disappeared without a trace.Seeing that a person was about to fall to the bottom of the city tower, Xie Lian felt bad and jumped out.
He hooked the edge of the female wall with his toes, his body hung upside down, and he stretched out his hand quickly and unpredictably, barely grabbing one of the opponent’s arms.The young soldier’s whole body hung in the air, swaying back and forth a few times, and looked up.At this glance, through the faint moonlight, Xie Lian saw his face and couldn’t help but open his eyes slightly.
