Last time, when she was at the entrance of the ancient city, Feng Xue Ge had already led the army to seize all the baggage of the army under Yuan Heng's command, and at the same time, she also got a general named Gan Xuan from the Nine Divisions of the Holy Mountain. After learning that the Nine Divisions of the Holy Mountain were oppressed in the Shunyuan Empire, they hoped to be able to submit to the Chitang Empire. Feng Xuege immediately sent someone to take Gan Xuan's handwritten handwriting to the land at the foot of the Holy Mountain, and to visit the nine parts of the Holy Mountain.

And when Feng Xue Ge moved all the grain and grass of the enemy army at the entrance of the ancient city to her own camp overnight, she also specially asked Gan Xuan for more information about their nine departments.

Naturally, Gan Xuan was already determined to be loyal to the Chitang Empire, and he also told the female marshal in detail everything he knew.

According to his confession, Feng Xuege immediately began to arrange the enemy's defense on the sand table, and he admired the governor of the Shunyuan Empire and Hou Yuanheng in the east, but unfortunately, this time, the enemy of the Shunyuan Empire still could not escape his fate of failure!

At this moment, Yuan Heng, the famous general of the Shunyuan Empire, had already learned that the other party had robbed him of his grain and grass. He never imagined that this most important place for his army would still be detected by the enemy.

Looking at the soldier in front of him who reported the battle report, Yuan Heng found out for the first time that this war was defeated after all.

His three sons, even the most taciturn third son, Motoyoshi, had dull eyes. You must know that the entrance of the ancient city is 800 miles away from the enemy's camp, and there are countless troops defending along the way, so how could the enemy army rob the grain and grass? Even if the grain and grass were robbed, the troops along the way did not know how the enemy army looted it. Now, there is only a decisive battle.

When Yuan Heng immediately ordered the army to assemble and quickly launch the final decisive battle against the army of the Chitang Empire, the messenger sent by Feng Xuege had quickly arrived at the land of the nine surnamed tribes at the eastern foot of Shengshan Mountain.

The nine surnamed tribes, before the founding of the Shunyuan Empire, have always existed, and their population at that time was very dense, but later, they were massacred by the Shunyuan Empire, and now the population is withered, leaving less than 30 million. And the nine surnamed tribes have long been indignant at the cruel oppression of the Shunyuan Empire, they yearn for the Chitang Empire, so they have always been close to the Chitang Empire, this time, the messenger of the Chitang Empire actually sent the enemy to behead directly, which made the nine patriarchs of the nine surnamed tribes all excited.

These nine clans are divided into nine tribes, including Zhao, Sun, Wu, Song, Cui, Dong, Kang, Geng, and Yu, and the patriarchs of each of their clans, including Zhao Xi, Sun Cheng, Wu Tingzhong, Song Huaizhong, Cui Ting, Dong Jin, Kang Guojun, Geng Tingzheng, and Yu Xin, have already met with this messenger.

This messenger is actually a eunuch sent by the emperor himself to Fengxuege's army, this eunuch is named Ma Cheng, he used to be a sweeping eunuch inside the palace, he still remembers clearly, when he was unconscious on the ground, it was the kind prince who invited the imperial doctor to bring him back to life. He followed the prince all the way to the East Palace and waited for the prince. Moreover, he was also able to entrust His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with Hong Fu and be able to study. Over the years, under the guidance of the queen mother and the princes, Ma Cheng has already become a proficient and upright general, although his body is disabled, but his mind is unwavering, so he was sent to the army. And because of his repeated military exploits, all the soldiers under his command respect him, and there is no gossip about him in the army for a long time. Because of his poor background and the sins he has suffered over the years, he knows very well that these brothers who fought with him are because of their trust in the imperial court, their trust in His Majesty and Niangniang, and because they believe that after His Majesty and Niangniang die in battle, their children will be cared for and cared for by the state after all. And isn't he? If His younger brother Ma Xin hadn't been sent by His Majesty to find and rescue him, I'm afraid Ma Xin would have died long ago. Now, his younger brother is a very popular minister, deeply trusted by His Majesty, and personally assigned him to marry, and he, who is an elder brother, can drink a glass of wine from his younger brother, and he is really satisfied. It's just that the emperor and Niangniang really trust him very much, and let him serve as a general, he really feels that it will be difficult for him to repay His Majesty and Niangniang's kindness even if he dies.

Naturally, he really admired the crown princess, so this time he sent an envoy to the Nine Divisions of the Holy Mountain to be able to repay the kindness of His Majesty, Niangniang and His Royal Highness the Prince. Therefore, no matter what difficulties he encountered, he will do his best to complete this great event.

And he had already written the letter and delivered it to his brother before leaving, after all, he knew that his brother was thinking about him.

Indeed, at this time, the emperor Duanmu Gang had already summoned Ma Xin, the left attendant of the military department, who was young but incorruptible, and had a heart for the people and soldiers, had received a letter from his brother. However, he deeply admired his brother's actions for the country and the people. In his heart, he never had the slightest thought of despising his brother because he was crippled, and even he was ready to pass on his newborn child to his brother. However, the elder brother refused.

This time, on the day his brother's letter was delivered to him, His Majesty already knew about it. Because, letters from eunuchs in the army must first be presented to the harem. So, presumably His Majesty already knows.

Sure enough, when he, the left attendant of the military department, walked into the palace where His Majesty was, he saw a huge sand table of the northwest battlefield. He looked at His Majesty in front of him, His Majesty was seriously injured because he killed the rebellious landlord and his henchmen, these days, as children who were adopted and taught by His Majesty and Niangniang since childhood, they often go to visit His Majesty and Niangniang, especially his wife Li Xue went directly to the harem, as a wife who was raised by Niangniang from childhood to adulthood, and also got the title of Jingxiang County Lord, their family is very grateful. Now, His Majesty has added him the title of Deqingbo, no, he is here to thank him.

"Wechen Ma Xin, I've seen Your Majesty, thank Your Majesty for enshrined me as Deqingbo, Wechen specially came to thank Your Majesty for your kindness. Ma Xin first said a few polite words. Of course, he knew that His Majesty, Niangniang, and the Crown Prince treated them in the first place, and he didn't like them to be so polite. However, this is etiquette, and the more respectful and intimate they are to His Majesty, Niangniang, and the Prince, the more they pay attention to etiquette. And after this courtesy, there is a normal communication with His Majesty.

Sure enough, Duanmu Gang looked at him, walked up to him gently, and said, "What's the matter? ”

Ma Xin said: "Your Majesty, you are the monarch's father, in this life, in addition to the brother and wife, the closest people are His Majesty, Niangniang and the prince, so Weichen does not like to kneel, but the so-called: heaven, earth, king, parent, teacher." Your Majesty is not only a king, but also a pro, and a teacher, why can't Weichen kneel?"

Duanmu Gang helped him up and said to him, "You kid, you must have read your brother's letter! Presumably, you, who are a younger brother, are very worried about your brother!"

"Your Majesty, brother, if you eat the king, you will do your best. Moreover, my brother and our whole clan have to be taught by His Majesty personally, and it is difficult to repay His Majesty for the grace of nurturing, promotion, and saving life. The elder brother regards love and righteousness as more important than his life, and this time he sent an envoy to the Nine Clans of the Holy Mountain, and the elder brother was ready to sacrifice for the country. Wechen is proud of his brother, if he is changed to Wechen, Wechen will also go. Ma Xin said.

"Don't worry, kid, I have already sent people to the Nine Clans of the Holy Mountain, and they will keep your brother safe. You kid, you must have been worried for a long time!" Duanmu Gang patted him on the shoulder and said.

Then he said, "Boy, come and see!"

Ma Xin immediately followed His Majesty to the sand table. Because he was worried about his brother, he saw at a glance the clear eastern foothills of the Holy Mountain that had been marked by His Majesty. He had just listened to His Majesty's words, and he knew that His Majesty had been planning for this matter for a long time. Therefore, he finally breathed a sigh of relief for his brother's safety.

"Xin'er, look, what is the location of the Nine Clans of this Holy Mountain?" Duanmu Gang asked suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, the land at the eastern foot of the Holy Mountain is the border between the Shunyuan Empire and our country. If the Nine Clans of the Holy Mountain can recapture this place for our country and occupy the Tianmen Pass, then our army can attack and retreat, and directly occupy the strategic initiative. Ma Xin said in one go.

Duanmu Gang glanced at Ma Xin with great appreciation, and said to him: "That's right, this time, if your brother can instigate the nine clans of the Holy Mountain to submit to our country, then our army can not only have a large number of more people and troops, but also form an active offensive against the Shunyuan Empire." This time, the crown princess robbed the enemy of grain and grass, which means that the decisive battle will come soon. This time, if the fight is good, by the time the crown prince ascends the throne, the northwest frontier can be calm for at least ten years. ”

Ma Xin nodded approvingly, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what it was for a while. It wasn't until he said goodbye to His Majesty and walked out of the palace gate that he suddenly realized what he felt was wrong? It was His Majesty who said that the crown prince had ascended the throne.

And at this moment, Ma Xin's elder brother, Ma Cheng, never thought that he, an outsider, would be warmly entertained by the nine patriarchs of the Nine Clans of the Holy Mountain. But that's all it can be. After that, it was a conversation between them, and naturally it was also mixed with some preferential conditions for many of the nine clans of the Holy Mountain to move to the seven provinces and one capital in the northwest. And Ma Cheng also explained his country's policies in detail to the nine patriarchs, and the nine patriarchs nodded again and again.

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
