After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

"kill!"

"kill!"

There was a clamor in the army, and the soldiers were in neat formation, but their eyes began to become bloodshot. They held their spears and stabbed them on the ground, gradually forming a regular military march.

Kill these sinners!

They set out again to kill the criminals who dared to start a war and rebel.

The atmosphere at the scene was ignited to the extreme and could only be calmed down by the sight of blood.

Upon hearing the order, the big man holding the Mo Dao swung his sword and chopped down at the same time.

Suddenly, blood gushed out from the neck cavity, and the headless corpses fell to the ground one after another, making a series of continuous muffled sounds.

The Mo Dao was not originally an instrument of execution. It was an invincible weapon on the battlefield and was very effective in chopping off heads.

There was a cheer among the army.

They use the blood of sinners to pave their way forward.

Even if they will die on the battlefield one day, they will die to protect their comrades and their families. They will move forward courageously and will not regret it.

Yan Changqing stood high on the wall, the golden sunlight jumping on the cold and hard surface of his armor, shining brightly and outlining his heroic figure.

He took the bowl of wine from Donglin and said loudly, "Come on, let's drink this bowl of wine! The day we arrive in the capital will be the day for you to be promoted to higher positions!"

"Dry!"

The soldiers picked up their wine bowls, raised their glasses together, and drank it all in one gulp.

Then, led by Yan Changqing, everyone threw the wine bowls to the ground.

Unsuccessful, they become benevolent.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

The crisp sound of bowls breaking was heard continuously, and morale was high.

"Let's go!" Yan Changqing shouted.

"Yes!"

The generals and soldiers responded loudly.

Yan Changqing left the wall and led everyone to the bottom of the city wall.

Qin Yaoguang followed his footsteps closely, her heart pounding.

This was the first time in her three lifetimes that she had seen such a grand and exciting departure ceremony up close.

Under the leadership of Yan Changqing, the atmosphere started out solemn and grim, then gradually built up to a climax.

She understood the necessity of these rituals: offering sacrifices to heaven and earth, offering sacrifices to the flags, and drinking farewell wine.

At the fortress pass of Yumen Pass, half of the road leading to the city wall is a horse path where people can ride horses directly, and the other half is bluestone steps for people to pass.

The steps are narrow and even two people walking side by side would feel a bit crowded.

Here, everything serves the purpose of militarization and comfort takes a back seat.

Because it was cold, Qin Yaoguang wore a flowing cloud silver mouse skin cloak. The cloak was ankle-length, which made it quite inconvenient to go down the stairs.

When it comes to such a big event as swearing an oath to go to war, one naturally cannot bring along servants.

Qin Yaoguang held up his cloak with one hand and kept his balance with the other, staring intently at the steps beneath his feet.

She thought to herself: If I accidentally trip at this moment, it will be a lot of fun.

Not only Princess Dajing's face was lost, but also his.

The stairs were long and steep, and she went down a few steps carefully.

Yan Changqing, who was walking in front of her, seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. He turned slightly and stretched out his right hand to her with his palm facing up.

Looking down at him from Qin Yaoguang's perspective, the man had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, with long eyebrows reaching his temples. His dark pupils became lighter under the sunlight, reflecting her figure clearly.

Being gazed at by him so affectionately, Qin Yaoguang blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

In public, and there are so many people behind us!

Yan Changqing kept his hand outstretched, nodded slightly at her encouragingly, and conveyed a message silently with his eyes: Don't be afraid, I'm here.

Qin Yaoguang didn't dare to look at him again, but gently placed her hand in his palm.

His large palms were warm and dry, but rough to the touch due to the thin calluses left by years of martial arts practice, which was even more obvious compared to her skin, which was as delicate as jade and as soft as a flower.

But this roughness brings an extremely reliable sense of security.

Yan Changqing walked in front, holding Qin Yaoguang's hand firmly with his backhand.

The pink on her cheeks spread like the sunset in the sky, quietly spreading from her cheeks to her ears and dyeing her white neck red.

Just like the peach blossoms blooming quietly in spring, so beautiful and charming.

What she didn't know was that Yan Changqing was walking entirely on instinct, with all his attention drawn to the soft, boneless hand in his palm.

Ice-like skin and jade-like bones are nothing more than this.

He swore that he wanted to hold her hand just because he was afraid that she would fall.

There is absolutely no wandering thoughts or impulsive ideas!

It's broad daylight, and he is not a beast.

but……

The sunlight was too bright, the wind was too cold, and she was too beautiful and attractive.

This staircase is neither long nor short.

I don’t know whether I should hope to keep walking or finish it quickly.

A quarter of an hour later, everyone arrived at the foot of the city wall.

Qin Yaoguang quickly retracted her hand and quietly touched her cheek with the back of her hand, trying to calm herself down.

But she forgot that her right hand had become warm after being held by him all the way.

When I put it on my face, it became even hotter.

She had no choice but to take a step back, hiding her face in the hood of her cloak, and glared at Yan Changqing.

Unexpectedly, Yan Changqing, who was originally talking to the garrison commander, looked over as if he had telepathy.

The two people's eyes collided in mid-air, and were about to explode.

Qin Yaoguang hurriedly lowered his head, held Guyu's hand, and left in a hurry.

Yan Changqing felt a surge of tenderness in his heart, and then he collected his thoughts and started talking about military affairs with the garrison commander.

The departure ceremony is over, but we cannot set off immediately.

Generals at all levels are conducting the final inventory of the troops they lead to ensure that the number of soldiers, weapons and equipment, food and supplies, etc. are all prepared without omissions or missing items.

At the same time, a final check on the soldiers' physical and mental condition is also carried out.

Before the army set out, Donglin led the scouts and signalmen to investigate the road conditions and enemy situation ahead.

Let’s set off in half an hour!

From Yumen Pass to the capital, heading all the way northeast.

Behind the army was the female guard team led by Qin Yaoguang, with Su Bai and Qing Bai as generals, leading a battalion of one thousand female guards.

Qin Yaoguang rode on the horse with her lips slightly pursed.

When I was at Yumen Pass, I could use various affairs to distract myself and not think about what was happening in the capital.

After embarking on the journey back to Beijing, she couldn't help but think about it.

In this era without television, internet and mobile phones, it is really difficult to get the news.

The distance in time and space is the biggest obstacle.

Forced marches are boring and tedious, with only a few things repeated every day: breaking camp, traveling, eating, and setting up camp.

Fortunately, the entire journey was within the territory of Dajing, and with the flags of the Princess and Prince Anle flying, the journey was smooth.

Five days later, the army arrived at the banks of the Wei River and set up camp and buried stoves.

The prefect of Weizhou led local officials to the scene, bringing supplies of food and more news.

At the same time, there was a panic in the capital.

Prince Ruyang led a large army in rebellion and was unstoppable along the way. In less than a month, they controlled Henan Province, including the fiefdom of Ruyang, and most of Shannan East Province. Under the banner of "clearing the court", they marched straight to the capital.

The wealthy and powerful families began to secretly transfer their wealth and children to other places.

Those who had some means fled the capital.

In the Wende Hall, with the arrival of an urgent military report, all the ministers frowned and looked worried.
