The First Tyrant of Daxia

The next day, dusk.

The storm on the prairie had long since stopped.

On the horizon, a large group of people began to appear, stretching as far as the eye could see.

The guard on the city wall was dozing off, but when he suddenly saw the army, he thought they were enemies and wiped his eyes quickly.

He was so surprised that he trembled: "It is...it is the imperial flag!"

"Your Majesty is back!"

"Quick, quick, quick! Report to the Marshal, His Majesty is fine!!"

He rolled and climbed down the city wall, and the whole Pancheng was shaken.

After a while, Xiao Jian rushed out with many generals from Pancheng.

They all looked haggard but very excited. They were about to cry when they saw Qin Yun was still alive.

"Your Majesty, it's a good thing you're alright, otherwise we would have been planning to attack Sirius City."

"God bless!"

"The emperor is blessed!"

As they talked, there was a hint of fear in their eyes from yesterday's storm.

Qin Yun laughed loudly: "Why attack Tianlang City? I am fine."

"Let's go into the city!"

Tens of thousands of people entered the city one after another.

Such a big event could not fail to attract the attention of others.

The news that the emperor had returned safely to Pancheng spread rapidly in all directions as if it had wings.

The tribes on the grassland were extremely angry and cursed Qin Yun for not dying in the storm!

There was no movement in the direction of the beam.

There was a shock inside the pass!

The leader of the Dongtu tribe was beheaded by Your Majesty himself!

Moreover, Your Majesty defeated an army of 280,000 men from the grassland with only 100,000 men and rescued the Zazahar tribe. What a prestige this is!

It can be said that the foreign enemies were severely intimidated!

In a very short period of time, Qin Yun's prestige quickly rose!

"Report the casualties to me." Qin Yun did not rest and went directly to the lobby of the palace for a meeting.

Mu Le stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, nearly 20,000 brothers in the Shenji Camp died."

As he spoke, his eyes turned red.

Kou Tianxiong and Yan Zhong also reported: "Your Majesty, the troops transferred from Tongguan and other places also lost more than 10,000 troops, all of them were elite soldiers."

"And the Imperial Guards..."

"Tens of thousands of soldiers from the Jiangnan Prefecture also died..."

A series of battle reports showed that a total of more than 100,000 people died.

This is the total number from the beginning of the grassland riot to the end last night.

In a major battle, the death of hundreds of thousands of people is normal, but for Qin Yun, it really hurt his vitality!

Among them, 60,000 were his elite troops who were promoted by him!

Looking across the whole country, only these troops are his die-hard supporters, not even the Jiangnan government troops count.

"Ugh."

Qin Yun sighed and frowned, "They are all my good soldiers, who died on the battlefield, loyal to the country!"

"I will immediately issue an imperial decree to the imperial capital, asking the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue to jointly take charge of the relief work."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" All the generals knelt down.

Qin Yun nodded: "Anything else?"

Chang Hong immediately said, "Your Majesty, I have brought back the food and some cattle of the Dongtu tribe."

"It's estimated to be enough to feed 100,000 soldiers for half a month."

"With the food that Zhang Wei and the others are still trying to transport, maybe we can hold off until spring."

Qin Yun finally showed some joy.

"Xiao Jian, immediately send someone to Jingzhou to pick up the food and grass for Zhang Wei and the others."

"By all means, there can be no mistakes!"

"Yes!" Xiao Jian nodded heavily.

The voice just fell.

"Report!"

"Your Majesty, half a month's worth of food and fodder for the 500,000-man army has arrived!!"

Hearing this, Qin Yun was stunned. Wasn't the grain truck destroyed so quickly?

The generals discussed it.

"What's going on? Didn't you say it would take five days?"

"It's only been two days."

"Let's go out and take a look with His Majesty first."

Qin Yun walked out of the lobby and saw countless convoys pouring in from outside Pancheng.

Zhang Wei and Jin Zheng rushed over.

"Report, Your Majesty!"

"All the food has been delivered safely, thanks to Miss Xiang's friends in Jiangbei."

Qin Yun was stunned. What did Xiang Shengnan have to do with it? She was in Jiangbei, which was a long way from Jingzhou.

"I, Fang La, pay my respects to His Majesty."

A strong, well-dressed middle-aged man bowed.

Qin Yun raised his hand: "Stand up."

"You are Shengnan's friend. Did you solve the problem of the grain truck?"

Fang La smiled and said, "Your Majesty, yes."

"Miss Xiang knew that a huge grain convoy would depart from the imperial capital and be transported to the border. She was worried, so she sent people to follow it secretly."

"I didn't expect that something really happened."

"So she mobilized all her connections in the underworld to help transport the food."

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled her instructions."

Qin Yun was touched and looked around: "Where is she?"

Fang La said, "Your Majesty, Miss Xiang is in Jiangbei."

"She arranged everything before the grain carts left the imperial capital."

Xiao Jian, Mu Le and others were all shocked.

How could a woman from a famous family in the underworld have such foresight?

If His Majesty had not won the battle on the grassland and seized the food, the food she helped transport would have almost become a life-saving straw!

At this moment, Qin Yun recalled her charming eyes and her always calm temperament, and couldn't help but smile.

This is true friendship. Without saying a word, he is helping me secretly.

For some reason, he felt warm inside.

"Very good, your name is Fang La, right?"

"You have made great contributions this time. What reward do you want?" Qin Yun said generously.

Fang La shook his head and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, contributing to the country is what a common people should do."

"What's more, this is something that Miss Xiang personally instructed me to do. I have no choice but to do it without asking for anything in return."

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows: "Is Shengnan very famous in the martial arts world?"

Fang La said seriously: "Miss Xiang is kind, righteous, and decisive, so people in the martial arts world give her some respect."

"It's just that she rarely asks for help. This time is an exception."

After hearing this, Qin Yun felt mixed emotions and actually felt that he owed her secretly.

"That's right, Your Majesty."

"In addition to transporting grain, we also found clues about the murderer who destroyed the imperial grain transport vehicle that day through Miss Xiang's network of connections."

Brush brush!

Dozens of sharp gazes suddenly looked over.

They all asked: "Who is it?"

"Any clues?"

Destroying the grain transport vehicles is tantamount to sending hundreds of thousands of troops on the border to their deaths, which is an act that disregards national interests.

Xiao Jian and others wished they could tear the murderer to pieces alive!

Fang La's face turned grim, unable to withstand the fierce power of more than a dozen generals.

Qin Yun waved his hands, signaling everyone not to get excited, and said calmly: "Tell me, what is the clue?"

Fang La wiped the sweat off his face and said seriously, "There were dozens of people who set up traps and destroyed the grain carts, all from the imperial capital!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yun was the first to become furious!

I thought it was a direct attack from an aristocratic family, but I didn't expect it came from the imperial capital.

The thief came from his own home.

"Do you know who it is?" he gritted his teeth.

Fang La shook his head: "I am sure he is from the imperial capital, but who he is remains to be verified."

"However, Your Majesty can check this knife. This knife is worth a lot of money and ordinary people can't use it. As long as we find the person who used this knife, we will find the murderer."

Qin Yun took a look and saw that the blade was exquisitely carved with pine and bamboo.

"Son of a bitch!"

"If you dare to disturb my head, you will die."

"Send a message to Gu Chuntang and Qi Yong immediately, and have them investigate the origins of this knife. I want to know the murderer behind this!"

"Especially that bastard Li Mi, he must be investigated thoroughly!"

There was a shock all around, and everyone's eyes were filled with indignation!

This matter is probably related to Li Mi.

However, Xiao Jian heard another meaning and asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, are you not planning to return to the imperial capital for the time being?"
