Taiyuan City.
After several days of fighting.
This place had completely turned into a world of blood and corpses.
Almost every place in the city was filled with the strong smell of blood. The smell continued to spread in all directions of the city, filling everyone's nostrils.
Similarly, it covered the entire sky above the city.
From afar, the sky above the city seemed to be shrouded in a layer of faint blood-red mist.
It was like purgatory on earth.
However, this situation did not make the people in the city too sad.
Instead, in everyone's eyes and faces, there was a kind of ferocious and savage excitement.
This was because most of the smell of blood, the corpses, and the blood-red mist did not belong to the people of Taiyuan City. Most of them belonged to the grassland cavalrymen who had charged in.
And the ones who caused this huge massacre were these commoners.
They had fought. They had forcibly stopped the grassland cavalrymen and beaten them to a pulp.
All the cavalrymen on the grassland, those who had wanted to come in and kill, had been completely turned into corpses.
There was no way to even bury their souls.
This was a kind of victory in the hearts of the people of Taiyuan City.
They had avenged their compatriots, their dead relatives, and their dead friends.
This feeling brought them a great sense of pride.
It also greatly offset the sadness, hatred, and oppression in their hearts.
When these were greatly offset, and after an intense catharsis.
They had truly obtained a kind of relief.
At this moment.
All the people of Taiyuan City had heard a piece of news.
That was, the Superintendent had led the Guanlong Army deep into the grassland to avenge them.
At the same time, the result of the revenge was quite gratifying.
One hundred thousand cavalrymen of the Guanlong Army went straight into the grassland mansions and wiped out most of the nobles, most of the tribal leaders, and even the Golden Tent and Hudu Chanyu.
Now, the entire grassland had become a kind of tragic killing ground.
Moreover, the Superintendent had personally set up the Blood River Boundary three hundred miles away from Taiyuan City.
This boundary was the boundary of the grassland people.
No grassland people were allowed to cross this boundary. Any grassland person who crossed this boundary would not only receive the most severe punishment, but the entire grassland tribe he belonged to would also be massacred by the Guanlong Army.
There was only one principle.
It was to kill without mercy.
Leave no one alive.
The old, the weak, women, children, cattle, sheep, dogs, and horses were all killed.
Even the tents had to be burned down.
Not leaving any trace behind.
This was the rule set by the Supervisor of the East Factory. If anyone dared to break the rule, the Guanlong Army would sweep across the prairie and destroy the bloodline of the prairie.
Turning this place into a wasteland.
Southeast of the Blood River was a true slaughterhouse.
The slower prairie people, the cavalrymen, the common people, and the tribesmen became the targets of the Guanlong Army.
This was because the superintendent had also given the same order.
Don't leave anyone alive in this area.
He wanted to turn this entire area of three hundred miles into a land of death. He wanted the grassland people to never appear again.
This could be considered a lesson for the grasslands.
When this news spread to Taiyuan City, it caused the citizens of Taiyuan City to cheer.
Practically everyone started screaming.
The entire sky above Taiyuan City reverberated with the voices and cheers of the people.
That kind of excited and lofty voice was like a huge dragon that rose up and whizzed across the sky, circling and rolling between the heavens and the earth.
The whole world was shocked because of this.
At this moment, these citizens heard the news that the Supervisor of the East Factory was coming back from the prairie.
This news stimulated the hearts of all the people.
They were excited, excited, and moved.
They worshipped him.
The scene of the Supervisor of the East Factory descending from the sky and killing thousands of grassland cavalrymen by himself to fight for the survival of the people of Taiyuan City was still echoing in their minds.
Now, the news of the Supervisor of the East Factory destroying the prairie came back again.
The name of the Eastern Faction Depot was imprinted in everyone's hearts and souls, bringing with it a sense of legend.
Now, that god-like figure came back.
So, these citizens had to go and welcome him.
This was a spontaneous idea in the hearts of all the citizens.
As soon as this thought appeared, almost all of the citizens began to run towards the city gate on their own accord.
At first, there were only a few people, but as more and more people knew about this news, the crowd became bigger.
The whole crowd, with a mighty momentum like the tide, gathered into small rivers, and then countless rivers gathered in the direction of the city gate to form a big river.
They rushed out of Sourcepeak City's city walls like a tsunami.
Then, like the mountains and seas, they gathered in the vast sea between heaven and earth.
Their eyes were like torches, and their faces were pious.
They looked at the vast and cold distance in the distance, with anticipation in their eyes, waiting for the return of that person.
The return of the god in their hearts.
…
In the tent of the Guanlong Army.
It was also very enthusiastic.
When the news of the destruction of the Golden Tent of the Imperial Court spread to the entire Guanlong Army, Zhao Chuanlong was also unimaginably excited.
To tell the truth.
As the chief commander of the Guanlong Army, as a general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, as a warrior who had fought against the grassland people for decades.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't like to merge with the grassland through marriage.
What he wanted.
It was the Guanlong Army, with weapons, spears, and sharp swords, rushing into the grassland, crushing the Golden Tent of the Imperial Court, crushing the entire grassland, crushing this desolation, and crushing all the beliefs of the grassland people.
They completely beat the grassland people until they couldn't stand up.
Then, they slowly swallowed them up completely.
This was the ending Zhao Chuanlong wanted the most.
But because of Xiong Chengde's ideas and face, and the relationship between the grassland and Taiyuan City, Zhao Chuanlong didn't have the chance and time to send troops.
This also caused the Guanlong Army to have no battle for such a long time.
The morale of the Guanlong Army also fluctuated.
It also caused some messy things to happen inside the Guanlong Army, such as the matter of Chen Shangzhu.
Now, this battle really brought a rebirth to the Guanlong Army.
They killed Chen Shangzhu.
They killed all the generals related to Chen Shangzhu.
They made the entire Guanlong Army into an iron block.
In fact, it shouldn't have been so fast. After all, Chen Shangzhu still had some influence.
But at this time, the Guanlong Army swept the entire grassland. In this way, the chaotic emotions in the Guanlong Army were all wiped out.
Because destroying the grassland and winning the grassland was a very high honor.
It was enough to make the Guanlong Army become a real one.
And all this.
Zhao Chuanlong also knew that it was Li Wuyou, the Superintendent of the East Factory, who brought it to him.
If Li Wuyou hadn't appeared, he would still be immersed in dealing with Chen Shangzhu's matter, wasting time and energy to suppress Chen Shangzhu's old subordinates.
If Li Wuyou hadn't appeared, the Middle Army he sent out wouldn't have been able to beat the grassland into such a mess, and wouldn't have been able to win such a big victory.
After all, it was Li Wuyou who appeared in front of those grassland deserters alone, and then killed almost all the chiefs and Hudu Chanyu on the grassland.
This was a huge credit.
It was unimaginable.
If there hadn't been this last battle, if the chiefs, Hudu Chanyu, and the other elites of the grassland had all fled back to the depths of the grassland, this battle would have been meaningless.
Because the real strength of the grassland was still there.
In the next decades, or even hundreds of years, the grassland people would constantly retaliate and harass them.
The nomads on the grassland were good at mobile warfare.
And the depths of the grassland were their home ground.
At that time, the Guanlong Army would be in a situation where they would be exhausted.
It would become a tug of war between them.
This was a very scary thing.
It was Li Wuyou's action that completely wiped out all the future troubles.
The Guanlong Army changed from passive to active.
The grassland had completely become a soft-footed sheep that couldn't stand up for a hundred years.
The key to this victory.
The key to the Guanlong Army becoming a legend.
It was all Li Wuyou's fault.
Zhao Chuanlong was also very clear in his heart.
At this moment.
Zhao Chuanlong stood in the center of the tent. Beside him were many generals in the army.
Everyone's eyes were full of solemnity and coldness.
There was even a kind of lofty flame.
"Is everyone ready?"
Zhao Chuanlong's gaze slowly swept across everyone present. The expression on his face was particularly solemn and fiery.
He asked in a low voice.
"General, we are all ready."
Many generals bowed one after another. There was a kind of generosity and determination on their faces.
"That's good."
Zhao Chuanlong smiled slightly. He tightly grasped the treasured sword at his waist and said with a smile.
"Then come with me to welcome the Superintendent."
"Yes!"
Many generals responded one after another.
Whoosh.
Zhao Chuanlong took the lead and rushed out of the tent at the fastest speed. Then, outside the tent was Zhao Chuanlong's ferghana horse.
He turned over and mounted the horse. Without the slightest hesitation, he directly galloped in the direction of Taiyuan City.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The moment Zhao Chuanlong galloped out, the remaining generals had already prepared their war horses. They mounted one after another and galloped out.
Woo woo! Woo woo!
Soon after, the sound of a bugle horn came from within the camp. As the sound of the bugle horn rang out, the entire camp seemed to tremble for a moment. Then, countless warhorses and countless foot soldiers rushed out.
The mighty troop was like a real dragon, sweeping across the land with a black sea.
They were heading towards the city gate of Taiyuan City.
They knew that the Eastern Military Superintendent would definitely pass through the city gate of Taiyuan City.
Therefore, they had to go and welcome her.
Welcome the Superintendent back to Guanlong!
Welcome the triumphant return of the Superintendent!
… …
Taiyuan City Road.
This place was almost out of the grasslands and had officially entered the territory of Guanlong.
In the past, there were not many people here.
This was because the people of the grasslands would not stay here for too long, and the people of Guanlong would not stay here for too long. This place was equivalent to a belt separating the grasslands and Guanlong.
They had isolated themselves from each other.
However, at this moment.
The isolation belt had lost its original purpose.
This was because Li Wuyou had forcibly pushed the belt to the northwest for nearly a hundred miles, and then it became the blood river.
This place had become a slaughterhouse.
The people of the grasslands, the tribes that did not manage to escape in time, and the leaders of the tribes, all fled in all directions. Some of them fled faster and came here.
However, what greeted them was not a path to survival.
It was the new Guanlong Cavalry.
Above this belt, countless Guanlong Cavalry were chasing the fleeing grassland people. They constantly raised their butcher's knives. Every time the knives fell, a commoner or a leader of a tribe would be cut down to the ground.
Then, many horse hooves whizzed past, directly crushing them into meat paste.
They could not even let out a scream.
They had completely lost their lives.
Whoosh!
Amidst the slaughter and wails, there was a group of people that was particularly eye-catching.
That was Li Wuyou's troop.
Li Wuyou had killed all the grassland leaders and Hudu Chanyu at the border of the blood river. After that, he was surrounded by the Guanlong Cavalry and rushed back.
They had been escorting him along the way.
They had not encountered any trouble.
At this moment.
There were thousands of cavalry around Li Wuyou. They were divided into four directions, protecting Li Wuyou in the east, west, north, and south.
Then, they followed Li Wuyou on his left and right, slowly moving in the direction of Taiyuan City.
"It feels good!"
Li Wuyou was leaning against a black carriage in the middle of the group.
This carriage was originally Hudu Chanyu's ride, but Li Wuyou had taken it and temporarily used it as his ride back to Taiyuan City.
He leaned against the carriage, his eyes looking through the curtains at the blue sky outside.
There were a few white clouds floating faintly.
They looked a little high.
Of course, Li Wuyou was not admiring these beautiful scenery. He was feeling the luck that was constantly gathering on his body, the power of the faith.
His spirit was strong enough that he could vaguely see some things that ordinary people could not.
It was a kind of white, almost transparent thing.
They were like silk threads, whistling from all directions and then falling into Li Wuyou's body.
They were very gentle.
They were also very weak.
When they fell on his body, he did not feel anything.
When he was in southern Yunnan, when he killed Gojoseon Zhennan and saved countless people, he also saw these things.
At that time, he did not feel anything.
However, he knew that this was the so-called fortune, the so-called faith of the people.
They would help him to ascend to heaven.
"A lot of people have gathered."
"It's time to go to Jianghu!"
"Land of Endless Suffering … The appointment on the fifth of August is coming soon."
