Chapter 69: The Emperor marches south with his spear
"Father, are you okay?"
Xue Beng stood up, looked at his father's old face with concern, tried desperately to squeeze out a tear or two, and asked.
"My body doesn't matter. Xue Beng, do you know why I let you sit in this position?"
Xue Beng sighed softly and asked.
"Father, I, my son and I are stupid and really don't know."
Xue Beng thought for a long time. He didn't know how to answer this question, so he had to lower his head and answer honestly.
No matter how thick-skinned he is, he knows very well that he is nothing compared to the fifth prince Xue Li!
To be honest, Xue Beng himself felt that his imperial brother and imperial sister were simply two monsters. He had doubted countless times that these two people were really his brothers and sisters?
Regardless of the thoughts, strength, and methods of the fifth emperor brother, he only felt that they were much more unfathomable than his father. Fortunately, this fifth emperor brother seems to have always been relatively gentle and not as dangerous as Xue Qinghe.
But why did this throne fall on him? If this matter had nothing to do with him, he would probably feel that his father was out of his mind!
"You, it's because of you that you don't know anything, and you don't understand anything. That's how I can rest assured and let you be the prince. Your elder brother, and younger brother. Hehe! They are just too powerful. They want to do this. There are too many things. If they really become emperors, the Tiandou Empire will only suffer disaster!”
Emperor Xue Ye shook his head and said with a faint chill on his face.
"And only you. Only you are the most like my son!"
Emperor Xue Ye stood up, touched Xue Beng's head, and said with some emotion. For a moment, Xue Beng also fell silent.
"Brother Imperial. How should we deal with that Xue Qinghe?"
At this time, Prince Snow Star bowed, a murderous intent flashed across his face, and asked.
"You don't need to think too much about this matter. I have my own opinion. This Xue Qinghe is not as simple as you think. He actually colluded with Wuhun Palace behind the scenes. If not...then the entire empire , fell down in an instant. ”
Emperor Xue Ye rubbed his eyebrows and spoke in a low tone.
"Yes. What about the fifth prince?"
Prince Xue Xing looked at Emperor Xue Ye and then asked.
"It doesn't matter, I have a plan."
A mysterious smile appeared on Emperor Xue Ye's face. Then, he picked up the ink pen and wrote four big characters on the white paper in front of him.
"Driving the tiger. Swallowing the wolf?"
Prince Snow Star read out the words on the white paper, and he suddenly had a clear understanding in his heart.
"The Star Luo Empire has already mobilized for war. The newly appointed national advisor is also a figure who can compete with Li'er. Next, I plan to confer Li'er as the deputy emperor of the empire and the general marshal of the three armed forces, and lead his Qianyan Army and Xian Family Army go south to conquer the Star Luo Empire!”
Emperor Xue Ye said with a cruel look on his old face.
"My dear brother, I understand. It has to be the emperor's brother. It's a perfect plan! It's good to drive the tiger to devour the wolf!"
Prince Snow Star's eyes suddenly lit up and he leaned over and said. What they didn't know was that there were two figures floating away from the window at this moment.
"Emperor, what do you think?"
In a deserted area in Tiandou City, Villette looked at Zhongli and asked.
Zhongli couldn't help but remain silent for a moment.
"We still have to conquer the Star Luo Empire. They are right. The Star Luo Empire is indeed ready to take action. If the war cannot be resolved quickly, with the current military strength of the Tiandou Empire, I am afraid that It is inevitable that mountains and rivers will perish and lives will be destroyed.”
Zhongli sighed and said.
Villette also nodded.
"It's better than this. King Water Dragon, you stay in the court for me and act randomly. I also try my best to protect Xue Qinghe. I will have my own means to solve the existence that is entrenched in the palace in the future. I will go to the south. Conquer the Xingluo Empire, put an end to this turmoil, and get rid of the ambitious people.”
Zhongli cupped his hands and said. Villette also raised his scepter and returned Fontaine's courtesy.
"I understand. I will do the job you asked me to do well. After all, you have invited me three times. Just go to the south with peace of mind. May the power of the Nibelungs protect you."
——————————————————————————————
On July 2nd, one year and two months after the conclusion of the continent-wide young soul master competition, the all-out war between the Tiandou Empire and the Star Luo Empire officially broke out. The Star Luo Empire's million-strong army crossed rivers and mountains, crossed thousands of miles of long national borders, and launched an attack on the Tiandou Empire and its affiliated kingdoms in the north!
For a time, the Tiandou Empire was completely defeated. Under the powerful combat power of the Star Luo Empire army and the attack of various new weapons that had never been seen before, more than a dozen garrison regiments on the border of the Tiandou Empire were completely defeated at once. Five of them were defeated in just one week. The legion was completely annihilated.
Just one week after the war began, the Star Luo Empire's army penetrated deep into the Lima Plains, pointing their swords at the granary of the southern border of the Tiandou Empire, Barak City!
"Dong Dong. Dong."
Accompanied by the sound of heavy war drums, the Star Luo Empire's ordnance was pushed under the city wall of Barak City, and pairs of Star Luo Empire cavalry with bright armor were arranged neatly, surrounding the entire Barak City. For a moment, the defenders on Barak City couldn't help but swallow their saliva, feeling as if their soles were weak.
You must know that most of the defenders of Barak City today are still the troops of the original Barak Kingdom; their loyalty to the Tiandou Empire was not as reliable as the empire's former local army.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered. A bolt of thunder suddenly struck into the Star Luo Empire's military formation, and the Star Luo Empire's extremely strict military formation was shaken to a certain extent in an instant. The next moment, a figure in a purple dress flew from the sky and stood on one foot on the highest spire of Barak City.
"Shadow General! It's Shadow General!"
A burst of strong cheers suddenly broke out among the defenders of Barak City. The eyes of these troops looking at Ying were filled with enthusiasm and admiration.
As the conqueror of Barak City in the past, in the eyes of these soldiers, this princess general was simply like a god of war!
The next moment, with the flash of yellow light, another figure flew from the sky, holding a rock gun, standing on the sky, looking down at the 100,000-strong army of the Star Luo Empire.
"Why do you want to start a war and invade our territory, causing the people to suffer and the common people to suffer?"
Zhongli's deep voice, like thunder, spread to the entire Star Luo Empire army. For a time, the faces of the 100,000 people in the Star Luo Empire's army turned pale. The faces of many soldiers, composed of ordinary people, showed fear.
