I am darkness, I will suppress all enemies

Looking up, Mo Changle saw that the most powerful man in Dali, who had been invincible on the battlefield for fifty years, was now in such a miserable state as a refugee. How could he not guess the outcome of the battlefield on the front line?

Thinking of this, Mo Changle suddenly felt sad...

So Mo Changle quickly rode forward, held Song Kou's shoulders and said to comfort him.

"Grand Marshal! The troops are gone, and now the court needs more people. The new emperor is very gracious! Grand Marshal, please don't lose your spirit..."

Song Kou raised his disheveled face and looked at Mo Changle, then looked at the long queue of militiamen behind him. He waved away Mo Changle's hand on his shoulder and looked at Mo Changle deeply with his bloodshot eyes.

Then, without saying a word, he bypassed them and continued on his way to Dali Imperial City from a side road...

Seeing Song Kou's attitude, Mo Changle felt more and more horrified in his heart. You know, as the commander-in-chief of the Dali army, Song Kou's personal strength and ability to deploy troops and fight are incomparable to him!

Even though he was defeated and retreated from the border, he did not seem to have lost his soul like the Song invaders.

"Did something terrible happen on the front line?"

Thinking of this, Mo Changle couldn't help but recall the bloody scenes on the border battlefield.

I recalled the soldiers being torn into pieces and screaming in agony...

Mo Changle swallowed his saliva involuntarily. Then he looked back at the army behind him. Most of them were teenagers aged 14 or 15. Looking at their ignorant faces, Mo Changle looked up at the sky and sighed...

in the palace

“Your Majesty! Your Majesty!… I’m back! I’m back!”

Tang Yin, with two dark circles under his eyes, suddenly sat up from the bed, staring with bloodshot eyes and said hoarsely

"Who! Is Ji Baige back? Or is Song Kou back?"

The eunuch was also startled when he saw Tang Yin like this. He quickly adjusted his mood and knelt down and said

"Your Majesty! Marshal Song Kou has returned. He is waiting for Your Majesty in the main hall now!"

Tang Yin frowned

"He came back by himself? Where's Ji Baige? Have you seen Ji Baige?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty. I did not see Lord Ji, but I saw Lord Song came back with a big bag this time, and he did not seem to be in good condition."

Tang Yin, who was more and more puzzled, immediately ordered:

"Hurry up and change your clothes! And call all the ministers to the meeting hall..."

Soon... the ministers of various ministries were awakened from their sleep by their servants. After learning that the emperor urgently summoned them, they quickly dressed and prepared their horses and hurried to the palace.

Not long after...In the hall, Tang Yin sat on the dragon chair and looked at the officials from various departments who had already arrived. He spoke hoarsely and word by word:

"The Song invaders are back... I don't know what the situation is like on the front line. If the Song invaders brought the worst news this time, then I summoned you here late at night to make the final decision on this war..."

Some officials who were still asleep were overwhelmed by the emperor's words and lost their sleep in an instant, thinking that the emperor was worrying too much.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty! The demons can't possibly reach the Imperial City! We have millions of elite Dali cavalry on the front battlefield, and countless militia and supplies in the rear. How can a few hundred thousand demons possibly break through the Imperial City!"

"Is it some damn villain who is behind this again? I beg Your Majesty to execute this villain immediately!"

Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was becoming increasingly chaotic, the chief eunuch swung his whip violently, a thunderous sound rang out from the ground, and then he shouted in a sharp voice:

"quiet!"

Tang Yin continued in a hoarse voice.

"Song Kou has returned. I don't know the details. Call him in and ask him! Ask him what's going on in front of everyone!"

Song Kou, who was disheveled and had just arrived at the imperial capital, had not eaten a meal or drank a sip of water, but just stood in the center of the hall with his breath. He scanned the ministers with his numb but hateful eyes, then slowly knelt down towards the dragon throne...

Everyone in the hall fell silent the moment he entered. Because no one could recognize Song Kou, the former most powerful minister in Dali, the strongest general in Dali, and the man from the most prominent family in Dali. At this moment, Song Kou was like an old beggar who had been stripped of his clothes and lost his dignity...

Song Kou said in a dry and weak tone

"I ask Your Majesty to issue an order. Let everyone flee for their lives! I am incompetent, and millions of elite soldiers were killed in the battle. Now the demons are no longer something that mortals like us can fight against... Dali! It's gone..."

"My family has guarded Dali for generations, and now it is time to finish what began. I beg Your Majesty to allow me to die here for my country...!"

After that, Song Kou kowtowed three times weakly to Tang Yin...

But the words haven't been spoken yet...

The images that Song Kou imagined in his mind and that should have been realized immediately changed! At this moment, he was extremely horrified to find that he had lost all control of his body. Like a bystander, he watched as the words he was about to say completely changed after he opened his mouth.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. We have won a great victory on the front line. The demon army has suffered heavy losses, and the demon general Yao Keqiu was tragically killed by our army. Your Majesty, please take a look."

After saying that, Song Kou stared in amazement as he watched his uncontrollable hands slowly open the bundle, and he looked in horror to see that Ji Baige's head inside had turned into Yao Keqiu's head..."

Tang Yin first looked at the demon's head in shock, then frowned and looked at the great marshal and asked:

"Song Kou. Did the front line really win? Then why are you in such a mess? Where's Ji Baige?"

Song Kou said

"Your Majesty, I came here because I was afraid that there were treacherous ministers in the court who wanted to stop Your Majesty from fighting, so I came here in person to support Your Majesty! And since I was traveling alone, I naturally had to disguise myself. As for Lord Ji, he was injured because of killing this monster, and he is now recuperating in our army."

After hearing this, Tang Yin no longer had any doubts. Instead, he gave the order

"There are tens of millions of reinforcements around the imperial city now. You should hurry up and train them! There will be a steady stream of troops arriving later. I'll leave all of them to you."

"No! I don't want it! Let them run as far away as possible. Song Kou's soul's eyes were bloodshot, and he was crying and screaming."

"But no one could hear his voice..."

After hearing this, Song Kou nodded slightly and said:

With such a large army, the threat of demons is nothing to be afraid of! I will definitely win this battle!"

In the sky...

Ye Wu Kuang watched all this with indifference, and a ray of light flashed on the index finger of his right hand behind his back...
