Winter goes and spring comes, but the Fire Badger Valley has no spring at all. Instead, it is a dead silence. The new grass buds in the soil have been cremated into ashes. At the same time, the 30,000 lives of the Imperial Guard were gone. Flies and insects in the valley are flying, and the smell is stinking. Several wild dogs are fighting to eat the legs of an Imperial Guard soldier, and rotten liquid splashes everywhere.

"brute."

A sword energy flew past, and the two wild dogs suddenly turned into two pieces. Feng Jixing walked forward, grabbed the legs of the imperial guard's corpse, gently placed it in a deep pit beside it, and then continued to drag other corpses.

The originally handsome and flying face now has only death energy. Feng Jixing is staggering, and black spots appear on his wrists and face. They are signs of corpse poison invasion. Fortunately, he has a deep cultivation level. If he had lived in this environment for so long, he would have died long ago.

“Tu tu tu tu…”

The sound of horse hooves came, and a row of cavalry galloped into the Fire Badger Valley. It was Su Muyun, Su Yu and others from Muyu City. Su Yu saw it clearly and pointed and said, "Father, Commander Feng is there, but here... it smells so smelly..."

"Um."

Su Muyun nodded and said, "Let's go, go."

The group avoided the corpse of the imperial guards that had been seriously rotten, came to Feng Jixing, Su Yu turned over and dismounted, walked up to hold her fists and said, "Master Feng, do you still know me? I am Su Yu, the daughter of Yungong, Yunzhong Province."

Feng Jixing dragged a corpse and came to the deep pit step by step, putting it in, but it seemed as if he had not seen Su Yu and others' arrival at all.

Su Yu frowned and said, "General Feng, you...you are..."

Feng Jixing grabbed the Feng Jian Dao that was poked in the soil, suddenly looked cold and said, "Are you... you here to steal the body? Get away, otherwise you don't blame me for being ruthless under Feng Jixing's knife."

Su Yu stood there in a daze: "General Feng...you..."

On the side, Su Muyun also turned over and got off the horse, holding a long golden staff, looked at Feng Jixing calmly, and said, "General Feng, the 30,000 soldiers of the imperial guards are all proud warriors of the empire. Do you have the heart to let them sleep in this deserted Fire Badger Valley? Do you have the heart to let the beasts dig up the soil and devour their bodies?"

Feng Jixing suddenly stopped and looked at the ground covered with crimson blood.

Su Muyun continued: "General Feng, His Highness Qin Yin is not dead. She has returned to Zetian Palace. Now Lanyan City has returned to the hands of the empire again. Yunzhong Province and the seven sea provinces have hundreds of thousands of troops guarding Lanyan City. Yihe Kingdom has withdrawn from Wugu City. Moreover, His Highness Qin Yin has ordered the construction of a Zhenguo Monument in the imperial tomb to bury these imperial soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country. In my opinion, the 30,000 warriors of the imperial guards should be buried under the Zhenguo Monument. General Feng believes."

Feng Jixing turned his face, staring at Su Muyun with his eyes like a beast, and said lightly: "Su Muyun, who are you, Feng Jixing, don't you know, the imperial capital has been surrounded for so many days, and the people from Yunzhong Province can climb over, but you allow Lanyan City to be ravaged by the beasts of Yihe Country, and trap His Highness Qinyin to death. Now that King Guangming dies, the power of the world is probably under your control, Su Muyun."

Su Muyun was stunned and said, "General Feng, as Mr. Yun, I will not pursue your crime of killing my son Su Qin. Why do you have to pursue my negligence in this way? If you were a father, you would do the same thing. Now, Xiao Yin is all my hope for Su Muyun. The only thing I want to do is to make Xiao Yin the lord of the world and to rip off the thieves of Yiheguo."

"What do you want me to do?" Feng Jixing asked lightly.

Su Muyun smiled slightly: "Diminding my army in Muyu City, sweep across the north of Lingnan, first drive the traitors of Yihe from Lingnan to the south of the Qinling Mountains. Now the empire is in vain. Xiang Yu is re-activated by Tang Lan, Chu Huaiyan and Lin Muyu have died in battle again. You and Xiao Yin can only use it. I hope General Feng will come out again for the sake of the people of the empire."

"Old Chu...A Yu..."

Feng Jixing frowned, tears circling in his eyes, and he was silent for a long time. Finally, he looked up at Su Muyun and Su Yu, and said, "I, Feng Jixing, are a sinful person. I must bury my 30,000 brothers before I leave. And I cannot believe your one-sided words. I will never serve anyone until I see Zhenguobei and His Highness Yin."

"knew."

Su Muyun nodded: "I will prove it to you."

As he said that, Su Muyun turned over the horse and shouted to a group of guards: "You bring people to stay, take firewood, cremate the bodies of the Imperial Guardian brothers, and take their ashes to be buried under the Zhenguo Monument. In addition, go to the Great Deacon Chu Yao to summon the medical officer of the Lingyao Department to come here to treat General Feng's injuries. No one should be neglected."

Everyone clasped their fists together: "Yes, Mr. Yun."

...

On the way back, the shadows of the tree fell on the ground with mottled shadows. Su Yu held the reins, her eyebrows were frowned slightly, and the black cloak swayed gently behind her.

"Ayu, what are you thinking?" Su Muyun asked.

Su Yu smiled faintly: "Dad, I'm thinking... Feng Jixing, Lin Muyu, Chu Huaijian, Qin Lei, these four people are indeed extraordinary heroes, but it's a pity... God is jealous of talents, so Feng Jixing is the only one left in them now."

"Yingjie..."

Su Muyun smiled thoughtfully: "Heroes cannot go against the will of heaven and turn the world around. Chu Huai-mi, Lin Muyu, and Qin Lei's death is only the will of heaven. Feng Jixing can leave a life, which is considered as God's favor to the Great Qin Empire and has left us a famous general bloodline. Otherwise, we have no general to fight against the powerful Yihe Kingdom."

"Yeah." Su Yu nodded and said, "Dad, what do you think... Can you tell your daughter?"

"I." Su Muyun was stunned: "What am I thinking."

"The future, empire."

"Oh..." Su Muyun sighed and said lightly: "Xiao Yin is still young, but she has to shoulder everything in front of her. The country of Yihe will definitely make a comeback. Tang Lan is the old fox, who is eyeing him covetously. What we can do for the present plan is to protect Xiao Yin and protect the royal power of Lan Yan City, and not let Tang Lan take all the initiative. I am afraid that by then this old fox may depose Xiao Yin and make Tang Xiaoxi the emperor."

"Ah." Su Yu opened her mouth wide in shock: "No, after all, Xiao Yin is the blood of Qin, but Tang Xiaoxi is not."

"Who knows, the legitimate premise is that the force is stronger than the opponent, but we now have no absolute advantage against the Qihai Province, so everything is unpredictable. Ayu, try to delay the issue of sending troops to Wugu City this time. It would be even better if it could be delayed until Feng Jixing came out of the mountain, hum..."

"My father doesn't believe in Ling Nantian's ability to lead troops."

"Hehe..." Su Muyun smiled softly: "If Ling Nantian was really a famous general, I'm afraid Lan Yancheng would not be so miserable. By the way... Ayu, you can send more people to the refugees in southern Xinjiang and the western border to find the lost people in the empire. Be sure to find Du Hai's whereabouts. He is the number one warrior in the empire. If he can use it for us, it will be even more wings."

"Yes, dad."

...

On May 11, the good news came. Xiang Yu used the troops of three thousand cavalry to conquer Lengxing City and Cuckoo City in the Earth Star Province in a total of 11 cities. Except for Lengxing City with a slight resistance, other cities have already descended.

Early in the morning of the 12th, Xiang Yu led a large army back to Lanyan City and was welcomed by the people of Lanyan City.

...

In Zetian Hall, Xiang Yu led several trusted generals to enter the hall with great strides, and clasped his fists and smiled: "Last general Xiang Yu, meet His Highness Yin."

Qin Yin nodded: "General Xiang Yu has made contributions to quelling the rebellion this time, thank you for your hard work."

Tang Lan clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, General Xiang Yu has time to quell the rebellion. Besides, the empire is at the right time to use people, so the old minister suggested that you ask your Highness to promote General Xiang Yu to the second-rank general of the country."

Su Muyun frowned and said, "Donald Lan, although General Xiang Yu has made great achievements, he is a guilty man after all. He was promoted to General Zhenguo after conquering a mere Earth-Star Province."

Tang Lan smiled: "Yun Gong, the army of Yiheguo swallowed up the territory of our empire. It is really not easy to regain every inch of land, let alone General Xiang has regained a whole Earth-Star Province."

Su Yu said: "Duke Lan said it very reasonably, but if you take back one province, you will be promoted to the general of Zhenguo. If you are afraid that General Xiang Yu will seize two provinces in a row, he will be promoted to the marshal of the empire."

"Haha..." Tang Lan laughed: "General Su Yu is not as good as a man, and what he said is very reasonable. That's better... Your Highness, the old minister suggested promoting General Xiang Yu to the third-rank general of the country protection. How about it?"

Wei Qiu in the crowd was a little displeased and clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the title of General of the Protective Country... originally belonged to Lord Lin Muyu..."

Tang Lan's eyes cold and said, "Although Lin Muyu died for the country, she was a dead person after all, so why not?"

Qin Yin stood up and said lightly: "Since Mr. Lan insists on enthroning Xiang Yu, then as the words are said, I will promote Xiang Yu to the general of protecting the country and give him a sword seal. I hope General Xiang Yu can continue to serve the empire and recover the mountains and rivers."

"I will obey the order." Xiang Yu smiled slightly and knelt on one knee in joy.

Qin Yin looked up at everyone and asked, "What's going on in Wugu City?"

Su Yu clasped her fists and said, "Report to Your Highness, General Ling Nantian has arrived at the city of Wugucheng. Yushu returns that the attack is urgent, but Wugucheng is guarded by the famous Lingnan general Ding Xi. There are 200,000 troops and the forces of Tongtian Province. Therefore, it is difficult to take some time to capture Wugucheng."

"Well, be in good condition for Lanyan City and prevent the re-invasion of Yiheguo at any time."

"Yes, your Highness, don't worry, you will do this."
