"Uncle, Qi'er knows I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so impulsive and made you worry."

"The battlefield is such a dangerous place, how can you just barge in there casually, right? Qi'er will never be so impulsive in the future, and will obey your uncle's arrangements in everything."

Feng Qi walked up to Xiao Zhenhai and grabbed his arm and started acting coquettishly.

This really made people lose their temper.

"You, there's really nothing I can do about you!"

Xiao Zhenhai sighed.

"You have done a great deed this time. You took Pingcheng without any effort. More importantly, you saved countless lives!"

"My niece is so outstanding, the uncle is very happy!"

"But when I saw you rushing out, my uncle's heart was in my throat!"

"If something happens to you, how will I and my family survive?"

"Yes, yes, my uncle is right. I will never be impulsive again."

Feng Qi said this, but she was still thinking in her heart that if there was a next time, she would still do it without hesitation.

That night, Pingcheng was brightly lit, and food was delivered to all the citizens in the city as had been agreed upon long ago.

The people of Pingcheng went from being afraid at first to gradually accepting it.

Some of them even went out to celebrate with the soldiers of Dongpeng, and the military and civilians had fun together!

For the next period of time, Xiao Zhenhai was busy dealing with the affairs in the city and had no intention of continuing the siege.

Feng Qi also agreed, and only hoped that Xi Yan could quickly see the current situation and make the right choice.

Xiyan was defeated, the powerful general Xu Da was killed in battle, and the news of the fall of Pingcheng had also been passed back to the Xiyan Palace.

Qi Jing felt mixed emotions as he received the battle report. Five hundred thousand soldiers were gone just like that.

He was ashamed of them.

Not long after, Qi Xiu Yu arrived. He had already received the news. Eunuch Qiu had told him everything.

"What is Father going to do next?"

Before, Qi Jing was a little worried about Bei Mingrong, and he was always in a dilemma. Now, he should do what an emperor should do.

"I only wish that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. As for the throne... I can also hand it over to you!"

Qi Xiu Yu was a little stunned. Although he thought that his father would choose to make peace, he never thought that he would even give up the throne.

"Father, I understand. Tomorrow I will go to Pingcheng in person and will never let the people of Xiyan suffer from war again!"

"Okay, all matters will be decided by the prince."

Qi Jing has put the future of Xiyan in his hands.

"I, your son, will definitely live up to your father's trust!"

What the father and son discussed here was completely beyond everyone's expectations, but the result was finally good.

"Master, news has come from the northwest that General Xiao led his troops to capture Pingcheng and is currently resting on the spot."

Shadow said this and stood aside respectfully.

"Have the officials appointed by the Emperor arrived?"

Speaking of this, Shadow felt a headache. Winning the battle was a good thing.

But every time they capture a city, someone has to take over the affairs of the city. They can still use some officials with good conduct, but there are always some who are not suitable, so His Majesty can only send someone.

To put it bluntly, the weather in Beirong is extremely cold. If the people of Dongpeng were not native Beirong people, they would not be able to adapt to it.

Besides, the mountains are high and the roads are long, who would be willing to leave their hometown!

At that time, His Majesty's reply was full of helplessness.

"Already on the way."

These officials who were sent abroad were forced to come by the emperor's imperial edict.

Si Xuan didn't say much. After some time, even if they wanted to stay, he wouldn't need them.

A group of poor adults don’t know that they have been driven here from thousands of miles away, and will be driven back in the future.

"What's the situation in Yucheng?"

After hearing this, Shadow felt helpless again. The prince of Beirong was like a mad dog and was very ruthless. Moreover, he had the help of Prince Yu. They had suffered heavy losses for several days and still failed to capture Yucheng.

"My Lord, all the troops of the Northern Rong have gathered in Yucheng, more than a million of them, and it will be difficult to break through in a short time."

"It seems that the battle of Yucheng will determine the success or failure of this war."

Si Xuan frowned. Now the military force under his command has expanded to nearly 800,000. However, Yucheng is easy to defend but difficult to attack. A forceful attack is a bad strategy.

"Order the army to rest where they are!"

The soldiers were exhausted after days of fighting, and launching an attack at this time would definitely not be worth the effort.

Weighing the pros and cons, this is the only way to go for now.

Shadow took the order and left.

Si Xuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, then took out a few letters from the brocade box beside him and started reading.

There was deep longing in his eyes.

……

Yucheng

Bei Mingyu finally smiled as he listened to his subordinates' reports.

"Okay, tell General Qi that if Dong Peng dares to provoke me again, don't be polite and beat me back!"

"Yes, I obey!"

After everyone left, Bei Mingyu turned to look at Prince Yu beside him.

"Uncle Wang, is this the only thing the Regent King can do? Now that my Northern Rong army of one million is here, he will definitely not get any good results."

"Prince, don't be careless!"

Prince Yu didn't think so. He absolutely didn't believe that the man would be so vulnerable. Maybe he was just testing him.

But Bei Mingyu was so happy about a few minor victories that he lost his mind. He was convinced that he could definitely defeat the man people called the God of War.

For the next few days, there was no movement from Dongpeng, and Bei Mingyu became more convinced that they were afraid of him.

But how could he allow the people of Dongpeng to be safe and sound in his own territory!

"Somebody come!"

The guard standing outside ran in immediately. Bei Mingyu whispered in his ear for a while and then asked him to leave.

No one knows what he said.

Even Prince Yu didn't know what he was going to do.

It was not until several days later that Shadow hurriedly found Si Xuan.

"Master, there is a plague in the barracks."

Shadow had just returned from the military camp, and he saw with his own eyes how terrible those sick soldiers were.

Covered with pustules.

Several military doctors were at a loss as to what to do.

The only way was to temporarily confine the infected soldiers to prevent more people from being infected.

If it can't be controlled, I'm afraid...

Upon hearing this, Si Xuan's heart tightened. Without saying a word, he took his men and quickly rushed to the military camp.

"Your Majesty, you can't go there."

Several military doctors stopped the man in front of them in fear.

"Step aside!"

Si Xuan only gave a look, and several people were so scared that they fell to their knees on the ground.

Shaking!

Si Xuan didn't bother with them. He walked around them and entered the area where the infected soldiers were.

There is a large fence surrounded by wooden stakes, and a simple roof made of tent on top.

The ground was densely packed with sick soldiers.

Not to mention that these soldiers would get sick, even if they were good people, they would get frozen to death if they lived in such a place overnight.

Si Xuan became furious when he saw the scene in front of him!
