The prince is very cruel

The two words "Guan Ning" once again made the entire Central Plains tremble three times. Even the old foxes from the aristocratic families had numb expressions on their faces, secretly thinking that the water in the Central Plains was becoming more and more muddy!

Moreover, when the various forces had not yet reacted, Guan Ning led the Dragon Cavalry, sweeping across the northwest and Central China like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. Wherever they went, they were invincible and had no enemy to match.

In just one month, he captured thirteen small cities and the Sangu Pass, which was known as a natural barrier. He also captured over 100,000 prisoners, pushing the defense line of Shu outward by hundreds of kilometers.

The sudden appearance of Guan Ning shocked all forces. They frantically tried to explore and investigate Shu, but those who could enter Shu often could not leave. No one knew how Guan Ning came to be, and he appeared so silently.

When the old emperor who had fled to Yan learned the news, he announced it to the world and named Guan Ning as the King of One Word, asking him to suppress the rebellion and serve the king in order to divert the disaster to the east.

This conspiracy had no solution. Both Xiliang and King Jiangxia regarded Guan Ning as their number one enemy and abandoned the old emperor in Yan who no longer posed any threat.

Guan Ning naturally would not suffer any loss. He gladly accepted the title of King and began to recruit soldiers on a large scale, gathering many remnants of the imperial court. At one point, his army expanded to 200,000.

Half of them are even elite.

Not long after, King Jiangxia sent an envoy to negotiate with Guan Ning.

The two sides finally reached an agreement and released each other's hostages.

It was agreed that the replacement would take place at Gaixia on December 21st, but Guan Ning received intelligence that the Western Liang army was being mobilized frantically and the King of Jiangxia was also constantly making small moves.

Guan Ning knew that once the hostage exchange was completed, the first decisive battle would begin.

He responded calmly, deployed troops and generals, and maintained the demeanor of a heroic leader.

On this day at Gaixia, dark clouds rolled in, strong winds blew, and a huge army gathered, so densely packed that there was no end in sight.

The two largest forces in the Central Plains joined forces to fight for Gaixia, aiming to kill Guan Ning. They knew that if they didn't deal with Guan Ning, they would not be able to solve the problem in another year.

The scene was filled with wind, sand, rolling rocks, and the prospect of a storm, which was truly terrifying.

Fuxi, Pei Nanyin, and Xiao Changhe were sent out in horse-drawn carriages. Guan Ning also handed over the abducted family members of King Jiangxia.

In front of the army, the atmosphere was extremely oppressive and evil winds were blowing continuously.

When the hostage exchange was completed, Ashina Yuanlie and King Jiangxia had no more scruples. With a single command, the sky collapsed and the earth split apart!

Endless cavalry charged, shouting into the sky.

The ancient chariots were roaring, and the arrows flying overhead like locusts were like rain. The ground was shaking, the war horses were wailing, and dark clouds blocked the sunlight, as if the end of the world was coming.

Guan Ning only had 80,000 people gathered from various sources, and chose to fight.

This was the largest battle since the Central Plains was divided into pieces. The two sides had an 8 to 300,000 force, with a total force of nearly 400,000.

In this battle, the sun and moon lost their light, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and blood flowed like a river.

Thirty thousand dragon riders cut down the flag and slaughtered the Western Liang Iron Hoofs with blood!

Black gunpowder blew up the mountain and destroyed King Jiangxia's dream of becoming emperor!

The two sides fought fiercely for two days and two nights, and finally Guan Ning won a tragic victory.

After the Battle of Gaixia, Ashina Yuanlie was severely injured and controlled Xiliang Jingzhou and a large area of ​​​​the Central Plains. King Jiangxia controlled the north, forming a three-way balance of power with Guanning, who controlled Shu, Hanzhong, and Lingnan.

As for the Jiangnan area, it was completely divided and everyone started placing their bets separately.

In April of the following year, with the birth of a son by Xiahou Qingyi, Guan Ning had become the father of seven children, five sons and two daughters. It can be said that he had a happy family with all the blessings.

Not only that, Mei Niang and Nan Yin also became pregnant one after another.

Even Empress Fuxi rarely appeared in public. The only time she appeared, her belly was obviously big, which shocked many people.

Under the promotion of Nie Nan and others, Guan Ning was forced to put on the yellow robe, change Shu to a country, and officially started the crusade with the slogan of "living for the people"!

In the third year, King Jiangxia was defeated and committed suicide.

A year later, the Shu army and the Xiliang army fought a decisive battle at Hulao Pass. Ashina Yuanlie was blown to death by black gunpowder, and it was another perfect sweep.

Afterwards, Guan Ning entered the capital. The old emperor died in Yan. The third prince succeeded to the throne and voluntarily abdicated, handing over power to Guan Ning.

Guan Ning appointed Qin Yao as Empress, and the rest of his wives were Imperial Consorts. Nie Nan became Prime Minister, Ma Jin became Minister of War, Xiahou Qingyi was in charge of the Department of Agriculture, and Xiao Changhe was Grand Historian...

The world is stable, and everything needs to be rebuilt.

Guan Ning did not continue the feudal dynasty, but used his knowledge and abilities as a time traveler to work hard to govern the country and change this era.

Transportation, water conservancy, education, medical care, social status... He was changing everything. If any aristocratic group dared to obstruct him, he would not be merciful and would destroy them if necessary.

He was kind to the people, tough on foreign countries, reduced taxes, developed commerce, encouraged reading, conducted industrial surveys, and so on, all of which made him a savior in the hearts of the people.

In just three years, the Central Plains emerged from the scars of war and began to prosper, and Guan Ning became a legend!
