"Xuan, I'm lucky to have that medicine this time, otherwise I'm afraid I'd really get lost on the road. I'll have to ask the little city lord later if he can sell some to us."

Wei Fengxuan also had lingering fears, knowing that Shangguan Chen was more than just a subordinate to him.

Or a confidant and friend who he can entrust his life to.

“Ask next time I offer a high price.”

After returning to the palace, Wei Fengxuan asked people to pull the carriage's belongings to his palace and put them away.

Then he quickly took Shangguan Chen to meet the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, his father.

Wei Yuan was very happy to hear that the Sixth Emperor was back, "Hurry up and announce it."

"Prince Xuan Liu, Shangguan Chen, the son of the prime minister, comes to see you."

After the two entered the hall, they quickly knelt down and saluted.

"Hurry up and get back on your feet. Is this trip going well?"

Wei Fengxuan lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Back to my father, everything is going well. My subordinates have divided their forces into five groups to transport grain and grass to the border."

"Okay, hard work."

"Did you encounter any unusual people or things here?"

"Yes!" Next, Wei Fengxuan recounted everything he saw and heard in Rose City.

The first reaction of Emperor Wei Yuan of the Northern Wei Dynasty was disbelief. If the person mentioned was not his sixth son, the strict and cold Wei Fengxuan, he would have probably reprimanded him long ago.

After all, this sounds so absurd.

Wei Yuan was at a loss for words, "I heard that there is a strange illusion in the desert, which is called a mirage."

The subtext is, are you sure you are not hallucinating because you have been walking in the barren land for a long time?

It can't be true, as the storybook says, that there is a fox demon in this world who can transform into an inn.

"Father, there is no need to worry. Chen and I, together with more than a dozen people, lived in that city for a few days. Whether it was an illusion or not, we all saw clearly."

"Yeah." Wei Yuan tapped his fingers on the desk.

"What do you think of this city? Is there any country standing behind it?"

"With all due respect, no country has such strength." To put it more bluntly, those countries are not worthy.

"Let's leave this city alone and discuss it later. The most important thing now is the attack on Xi Shu."

Wei Fengxuan lowered his head and knelt down on one knee and said: "My son is willing to lead the troops to fight with South Vietnam for the ownership of several cities."

"Among your brothers, you are the one who is highly skilled in martial arts and well versed in the art of war. I also like you."

"I beg your father to issue an edict."

"Okay, then I will order you, the hussar general, to lead an army of 100,000 to fight for the land that can grow food for us in the Northern Wei Dynasty!"

"My son, I accept the decree!"

***

Western Shu Kingdom, Fang family.

Everyone in the room was crying. Mr. Fang had a straight face and shouted angrily: "Why are you still crying? The South Vietnamese Army will attack soon. Why don't you go pack your things?"

Everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream and hurried back to the house to pack their things.

Mr. Fang arrived at the Fang family's ancestral hall alone.

In front of many tablets, there is a white jade pen holder. Unfortunately, it is empty now, and there is no pen.

After lighting a few pillars of incense, the old man knelt down and kowtowed.

"My ancestors are above me, but my descendant Fang Runze is guilty. Today, Western Shu is facing a great disaster, and the country may be destroyed.

In order to protect the family below, the unworthy descendants had no choice but to make the decision to leave their ancestral land and flee to other countries. I hope the ancestors will not be blamed.

A hundred years later, Runze will come before you to atone for his sins. "

After kowtowing, Mr. Fang stood up tremblingly, with tears in his eyes, and piously selected a dozen tablets to take away.

As for the rest, there was really nothing he could do but take away the family tree, and then build tablets for his ancestors again after he settled down. People who got the news were running for their lives, but some people who didn't get the news were still looking forward to a good harvest this year.

However, this late at night.

The South Vietnamese cavalry entered the territory of Xishu.

The border city was destroyed, and General Lin's head was hung on the city wall!

All the officers and soldiers who defended the city were killed. No one was spared.

The bodies of General Lin's family were also hung on the city tower. All thirty-seven people were missing.

Among them was a baby who was only two days old. His mother's belly was even opened and the baby was placed inside.

Cruel methods are frightening.

Bailu City is a line of defense between Western Shu and Ding Jin. Once the city is broken, the enemy can enter Kyoto from the south.

Originally there should have been three generals and 200,000 troops guarding this place.

But over in the imperial city, several urgent orders were issued to forcibly recall the two old generals and the 150,000 troops, leaving only General Lin with 50,000 soldiers to support them.

No, the capital was in a stalemate, but South Vietnam had recovered.

Egret City was directly captured.

Although it is unethical to take advantage of the situation, this piece of fat meat in Xishu was eaten immediately. Who wouldn't want to take a bite.

So Wei Fengxuan led an army of 100,000 people to the border with Western Shu.

Since the Northern Wei Dynasty was cold all year round and generally unwilling to provoke war, Xi Shu's defense of the north could be said to be loose.

Coupled with the cunning operations of those princes, after the city in the south was destroyed, the city in the north was also destroyed.

If they were not far away, the grassland people and the Dongli people would actually want to get a share of the pie.

It's just that they don't have an advantage in geographical environment, and they know that they can't compare with the conveniences of South Vietnam and Northern Wei, so they can only give up reluctantly.

By the time the news reached the capital of Western Shu, the soldiers and horses of several princes were already fighting.

On this day, the imperial palace was furious.

The seventh prince of Xishu became the final winner. He looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha, I am the emperor, hahaha..."

"Why don't you surrender without mercy? Meet the new emperor?"

Regardless of whether they accept it or not, at this moment, all the survivors can only throw down their weapons and kneel down.

Because all the princes present were dead and disabled, only the seventh prince was left, with good hands and feet, standing covered in blood.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

The sound spread throughout the palace.

However, at this moment...

"Eight hundred miles urgent report... drive!!"

The officers and soldiers on horseback rushed in. After seeing the people, they jumped off their horses and knelt on the ground, saying quickly: "Report to the new emperor, Bailu City was lost three days ago, and the South Vietnamese Army has marched straight north!"

"What? Egret City is broken?"

"Where's General Lin stationed there?"

"The general who defended the city has been exterminated, and his corpse and head are all hanging on the city wall!

The people of Bailu City were killed and captured, and the county government was also completely burned by a fire! "

Everyone was stunned when they heard the news.

An old man with a white beard in the crowd picked up a long sword from the pool of blood and laughed crazily: "Haha, this corrupt dynasty will eventually perish!"

"I said it from the beginning, you can't go back to Beijing, you have to fight, you have to be in a faction."

"Western Shu is dead!" After saying that, he raised the sword in his hand and wiped his neck.
