It turns out that I too have been robbed.

Pei Ruzhou's actions stunned everyone.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, and the people who saw this scene were not inexperienced soldiers.

Of course they know what it means to be in a daze or distracted at this time.However, after seeing the soaring flames, everyone was stunned... No one had ever seen such a scene.

Cruel and magnificent.

After a breath or two, only You Weining who was also standing above Pei Ruzhou reacted.

"Send the arrow!" The general's voice finally woke everyone up.

As for the soldiers who were still in a state of confusion, although they hadn't reacted yet, they had obeyed the command of the general, and they kept delivering arrows to Pei Ruzhou from one side.

Of course, there are more wind flags that have been torn down.

In just an instant, the gray cloth soared into the sky like an eagle.

Pei Ruzhou didn't say a word, his eyes were fixed on the front, and the movements under his hands didn't stop for a moment.

One after another, the feathered arrows with sparks flew towards the distance, and fell to the ground like meteors.

In this battle, Day Lan Pass won a complete victory.

Then they knew that those who came to raid the Zhoulan Pass were from Shenshun, one of the fourteen countries in the Western Regions.

It turned out that there was a severe drought in the desert this year. Although a peace treaty was signed, they, who lived by water and grass, finally couldn't bear the natural disaster and tore up the treaty.

Shenshun has been waiting for a long time, and they want to take advantage of this weather to attack Zhoulan Pass.

After the defeat, the leader of Shenshun's army was directly forced into the pass, but at the same time, other tribes in the Western Regions were still ready to move.

Speaking of which, although there are more than ten countries in the Western Regions, they are different from Dayi.These countries are like an alliance, or some are like the vassal states of the previous dynasty. They have a strong synergy. Over the years, they have all prospered and lost all.

In just a few days after that, five or six wars broke out outside the Zhoulan Pass.

At the beginning, the people from the Western Regions originally thought that what happened on the tower that day was just an accident or a coincidence.But what happened later told them that was not the case.

Pei Ruzhou showed amazing talent in military affairs.

The most frightening thing is that because Pei Ruzhou has lived here since he was a child, he is very familiar with the mountains, rivers and climate changes here, so after several victories, he will lead people deep into the desert and go to the Western Regions.

Pei Ruzhou's behavior was absolutely unprecedented.In the previous history, soldiers in the Central Plains would never go west.

In their view, the desert is the most dangerous place in the world.They don't know what's ahead, so wars often only stay at the stage of siege and defense.

But Pei Ruzhou's trip was different this time, he not only took advantage of the momentum to pursue, but also beat the opponent to the point where he was powerless to parry.Even Pei Ruzhou took over a small city in the Western Regions a few days later.

People in Dayi have never heard of such a thing.

……

The situation of the battle soon spread to Fengcheng.

Speaking of recently, Fengcheng was calm on the surface, but something happened inside.

Although Pei Ruzhou hasn't left here for too long, the city is already different from when he was there.

For example, the little prince Qi Yunyao—it was already time to return to the palace, but I don't know if the emperor forgot, or someone was obstructing it.The emperor who once loved him very much never let anyone bring him back.Qi Yunyao still stayed at the imperial mausoleum.

Besides that, what attracted the most attention was that the originally healthy emperor suddenly became ill.

His illness was not accidental.

The emperor is not very old now, and it can even be said that he is in his prime.But like all rulers, he longed for immortality, for the continuation of his glory.From now on, Xunxian asked, the time is just right.

Recently, the emperor recruited many folk warlocks and embarked on the road of alchemy to pray for longevity.

But the ending is needless to say, he did not seek longevity, and even his body became worse day by day, and his spirit was a little sluggish.

……

A soldier in heavy armor appeared in the resplendent main hall of the imperial palace when the morning dynasty was about to end.

Everyone only heard Eunuch Lin who had been by the emperor's side saying loudly: "People from Zhoulan Pass—"

In an instant, everyone looked towards the door.

At the same time, the expressions on the faces of several people in the hall also changed.

The man in Tsing Yi standing at the corner of the fifth row silently clasped his hands together. His wide sleeves covered his movements and completely concealed his nervousness.

What happened to Day Orchid Pass?

As the prince, Qi Baili has not gone to fief for the time being.And what is different from the past is that although the emperor still doesn't like him very much, after a while, Qi Baili already has a place to speak in the temple.

Day Orchid Pass...

He didn't know how long he hadn't heard these three words.

And when these three words appeared beside his ears, Pei Ruzhou's figure appeared in Qi Baili's mind.

For the first time, he lost his mind in the early morning.

It's been a long time since I saw him, and I don't know how Pei Ruzhou is doing now.What happened at Zhoulan Pass that made the soldiers come here in such a hurry?

Qi Baili didn't realize that it was just a short moment, but after hearing the three words "Day Orchid Pass", his mood had already become extremely tense.

There are not many people like him here.

Qi Baili noticed from the corner of his eye that the prince not far away also slowly pursed his lips.

The emperor didn't delay, he couldn't wait to ask: "What's wrong with Zhoulan Pass?"

The next moment, the soldier who was already kneeling on the ground took out a long crimson battle book from his sleeve.The battle situation in the past few days was recorded here in detail, and then reached everyone's ears through the voices of the soldiers.

At this time, the hall was so quiet that only one person's voice kept echoing.

The bloody wars turned into words and sounds appeared in everyone's ears.And it was clearly only a brief record, but they had imagined the wind and sand in the sky at Rioran Pass, and the blood that hadn't cooled down yet.

"Big victory."

"Great victory."

"Win."

"Take advantage of the victory to pursue."

Words came out of the soldier's mouth one by one, and the people around gradually became excited.At some point, the emperor who was originally sitting on the dragon chair stood up.

All emperors naturally have some ambitions, and the biggest goal of the emperors in recent dynasties is the Western Regions.

That place has been fighting with the Central Plains Dynasty for hundreds of years, and the peace is only temporary.

Moreover, in the past few hundred years, the Central Plains Dynasty has only won a few victories.Even if they win in the future, at most they will just re-sign the peace agreement and dare not move to the Western Regions.

In the eyes of the emperor, this matter was indeed very, very aggrieved.

No one is willing to continue to be so aggrieved, but they don't know what to do next, maybe they can only look forward to the coming of the stars...

The appearance of Pei Ruzhou made everyone's eyes shine.

Not only did he win, but he won it all.

The most important thing is that Pei Ruzhou really went back and occupied a city in the Western Regions. He has fulfilled a dream that generations of people have never dreamed of.

"Reward!" At this moment, the emperor only had this word to say, and perhaps he was too emotional, after saying this word, he coughed uncontrollably.

The emperor didn't see it, but Qi Baili, who was standing below, suddenly changed his eyes.

Although the people in the court already knew about the emperor's health, there were some problems because of taking the elixir, but the emperor, who didn't want to listen to people's advice, suppressed his desire to cough every time he went to court.

Until this time, he finally couldn't hold back anymore.

Although no one is speaking below, it is conceivable that after hearing this voice, many ministers must have their calculations in their hearts...

In the court hall, the emperor gave Pei Ruzhou many rewards, and even sent ministers to deliver things to Zhoulan Pass.

Everyone was very excited when they heard that Zhou Languan had won a big victory, and they had great confidence in Pei Ruzhou.But when they heard that they were going to that place, everyone was still reluctant.

After all, before this, the Central Plains Dynasty won too few times.It's not that they don't trust Pei Ruzhou, it's just that they are too afraid of the Western Regions.

Only one person took over the matter.

It's Qi Baili.

After the emperor finished speaking just now, Qi Baili, who seldom spoke in the court hall, suddenly took a step forward. He saluted the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, my son is willing to go."

"Cough, cough..." The emperor's eyes fell on Qi Baili, and he showed a rare expression of relief, "Okay, since you want to go—"

The emperor always thought that Qi Baili was a cold-blooded person before, but recently, Qi Baili has become more and more like a "human", and his guard has gradually let go.

Thinking about it, most of the emperor's dislike for Qi Baili was because of the concubine Xian.And more than ten years later, the good memories of that year have already been diluted by time, but the last thing Xianfei did was firmly remembered by him.

What he cares most about may have long been Qi Baili's experience as a proton.

Of course the emperor knew that few people wanted to go to the Zhoulan Pass, and that place was too dangerous.Qi Baili went to Zhoulan Pass, maybe it was just because of friendship.

After saying what he just said, the emperor rubbed his temples tiredly.

"Okay, retreat..." The hoarse voice kept echoing in the hall, and everyone saluted and retreated.

……

Pei Ruzhou didn't know what happened in Fengcheng. Recently, Zhoulan Pass has been under strict guard for twelve hours.Pei Ruzhou's position on the battlefield is getting higher and higher, and You Weining has even given some of the power in his hands to Pei Ruzhou.

When the war continued a few days ago, Pei Ruzhou didn't have time to think deeply about this matter.

And on this day, when the people from the Western Regions were repelled and the day orchid pass was rarely peaceful, he suddenly thought of a question.

"Marquis Guangce recovered the fourteen countries in the Western Regions. In the same year, Qi Baili, the sixth son of the emperor, exterminated the guards and proclaimed himself emperor."

This sentence has already been engraved in Pei Ruzhou's heart, but before that he only paid attention to the second half of the sentence.

Until now, when Dayi and the Western Regions were really fighting, Pei Ruzhou thought belatedly—who is that Guang Cehou who is going to take back the Western Regions?

He seems to never know that there is such a person in Dayi...
