Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

The secret decree of the Holy One!

Just four words made everyone's heart skip a beat!

Everyone knew that Xu Zhen would never act recklessly on this kind of thing, let alone use it as a cover.

Because once a secret decree is passed down from family to family, it will be a capital crime, a capital crime for the Nine Clans!

"His Majesty's secret decree!"

"If you win, don't pursue us!"

Xu Zhen endured the pain and stood up, looked at Zhou Zheng, and spoke loudly with a proud look on his face.

"Blowing the drum and withdrawing the troops is the Holy One's will. Is it possible that you will disobey the Holy Will?"

The people present were all human beings, and their eyes became complicated.

"It seems that although His Majesty has allowed His Highness to command the army, he still has backup plans."

"But Xu Zhen only said that if we win, I guess if we lose, His Majesty also has arrangements."

"Your Majesty has far-sightedness and foresight, which we cannot predict."

The generals secretly underestimated him, but they all breathed a sigh of relief anyway. After all, there was a secret edict, which at least meant that Xu Zhen was not messing around and acted in accordance with the order, which was understandable.

"Boss, His Majesty obviously doesn't trust you."

Zhou Ping felt depressed at this time and couldn't help but complain.

"According to His Majesty's wishes, as long as you win, you can't stop fighting."

"If a general does something according to orders, what crime is there!?"

"Your Highness, on the other hand, is so arrogant and domineering for his own selfish interests, regardless of the life and death of our Zhou soldiers!"

"The general will definitely inform your Majesty that you will be severely punished!"

There was still burning pain on his face, and Xu Zhen's dissatisfaction and anger reached the extreme at this time.

Since Zhou Zheng didn't give him face, he naturally didn't have to give Zhou Zheng face in front of the army.

The threat inside and outside the words was very strong.

"A good one who follows orders!?"

"Take out the imperial edict. I want to see if this is what your majesty means?!"

Zhou Zheng's pupils shrank slightly and he sneered on the spot.

"As I said, it's a secret order, and it was specially given by His Majesty before the army left the imperial capital!"

"If you don't believe it, just go back and ask His Majesty!"

Frowning, Xu Zhen didn't expect Zhou Zheng to dare to question whether his secret edict was false.

He added one more sin to Zhou Zheng's mind.

Even other veterans spoke one after another. After all, in this world, the hierarchy is strict and the imperial power is supreme. Who would joke with the lives of his nine clans?

"Can't produce evidence?!"

"Is it just a lie?"

"Falsely spreading the imperial edict is an unforgivable crime, and the nine tribes should be implicated!"

Zhou Zheng scolded angrily, leaving others speechless.

"If everyone says it is a secret decree, everyone must ask me to go to His Majesty for verification!"

"Then, isn't this world in chaos?"

After Zhou Zheng finished speaking, he slowly moved closer to Xu Zhen, holding the long knife directly across his neck.

Such an action shocked everyone, and even Xu Zhen became nervous.

He didn't expect that Zhou Zheng not only didn't care about his secret order, but even turned against him!

The most important thing is that the coldness coming from his neck made him feel the breath of death!

If other princes were here, Xu Zhen would definitely not be afraid, because no one would dare to take action.

But Zhou Zheng is different!

Zhou Zheng really dared to kill him!

"Zhou Zheng, you...you dare?!"

The trembling voice made Xu Zhen really scared!

"Fake the imperial edict and deceive the military's morale. You should be executed!"

"Don't say, don't say whether this imperial edict is true or false, so what if it is true!?"

"Don't you understand the reason why a foreigner will not accept your fate?"

Zhou Zheng pressed forward step by step, and the killing intent in his words became more and more fierce!

"Xu Zhen, it is not a pity for you to die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Zheng didn't make any extra moves. He just slashed with his sword and cut off Xu Zhen's head on the spot!

Hiss, hiss! ! !

Seeing this scene, all the soldiers' breathing quickened, and his eyes were full of shock and disbelief.

Who would have thought that Zhou Zheng would actually dare to kill Xu Zhen!

For a moment, everyone gasped and stayed where they were.

Even the corners of Zhou Ping's mouth twitched a little, and a strong worry appeared on his face.

If you act like this, don't you worry about mutiny?

After all, even if these soldiers had their morale boosted by Zhou Zheng before and were even willing to fight with Zhou Zheng to the death, this does not mean that they are loyal to Zhou Zheng!

Thinking of this, Zhou Ping moved slightly, his body lying in front of Zhou Zheng, and he was nervously guarding his surroundings.

"Gan Mo, tell me the numbers!"

However, Zhou Zheng didn't care about the changes in the expressions of the soldiers at all, but spoke in a deep voice.

"Return to your highness!"

"In this battle, thirty-six of our Zhou generals were killed, more than 56,700 soldiers were killed, and more than 37,000 were seriously injured."

Gan Mo didn't know when he had a pamphlet in his hand.

The moment he reported the number of casualties, all the soldiers' hearts trembled!

Such a loss is unimaginable for them!

They looked around, truly looking at this battlefield for the first time.

The once beautiful scene of grass growing and warblers flying has long since been replaced by ravines and corpses strewn across the fields.

Corpses piled up like mountains, and everything you could see was wreckage and broken armor.

You can’t even tell whether it’s the enemy army or our army!

Such a miserable scene made everyone's hearts feel hot.

They Nalin still cared about Xu Zhen just now, but their eyes were filled with tears.

An endless sadness and desolation began to spread in their hearts.

One day ago, they were brothers by their side.

But when he turned around, he had become a victim of the war.

Blood flowers bloomed all over the sky on the Hanpas grassland, and the pungent smell of blood filled the air seemed to tell the cruelty and tragedy of the war just now.

"An inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood!"

"Every inch of the mountains and rivers is bloody!"

"Countless of our brothers fought one after another and sacrificed their own bodies and lives to win this battle!"

"For the first time, we defeated the cavalry of Daxia Kingdom head-on, shattering their pride and crushing their pride!"

"For the first time, we saw them fleeing in all directions!"

"But this doesn't mean the war is over!"

“Do you know what it means that wildfires can’t be burned out but they will be rekindled by the spring breeze?!”

"Do you know that there is a word called cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, and there is another word called making a comeback?!"

"This time, if we don't kill them all on the grassland, they will attack our Zhou Dynasty again in the future!"

"We can only and must defeat them, defeat them, and beat them to death! Only then can we protect our country and the country of Great Zhou!"

Zhou Zheng waved his arms, fighting spirit igniting in his eyes again.

"If we don't kill them all, this battle will not be truly over!"

"Brothers, tell me, are you willing to return to camp like this?!"

"Tell me, are you willing to give them a chance to come back, invade my land again, disturb my people, and rob my wealth?"

Zhou Zheng's words made everyone feel ashamed and at the same time became full of fighting spirit again.

"I don't want to!"

"I don't want to!"

"I don't want to!"
