Yin Shi named his newborn son Yin Wei, and when he saw that after Yuan Ying gave birth to the child, the mother and son were safe, and he accompanied them for a day, so he was ready to leave Shi Mingcheng and return to Heng Kingdom alone.

"Can't you stay one more day?" Yuan Ying was reluctant to give up.

"I have just become the king of Shangheng, and the country has just experienced war, and there are too many things to do, as the king of a country, I can't put aside many important things and not deal with them. I'll be sure to pick you up when I'm settled. ”

"Then you must settle down as soon as possible, and come and take us back to Heng before the end of the twilight season. Yuan Ying admonished.

"Okay, I'll be there to pick you up before the end of the autumn season. Yin Shi assured.

Early the next morning, Yin Shi kissed his wife and children goodbye and embarked on the return journey. However, before leaving, Yin Shi invited Fengchen to go to the barracks of the Black Mule Legion with him to say goodbye to everyone.

After everyone saw him, they first congratulated him on his happy son, Yin Shi hurriedly thanked everyone, and then informed himself that he was about to return to Hengguo.

"Yin Shi, congratulations, happy to have a noble son. But you are in too much of a hurry to leave, can't you stay for another day or two to spend time with your wife and children?" Wei Muxun asked with concern.

"Their mother and son are safe, and there is Fengchen and Yuqian's care, I am very relieved. Yin Shi smiled, and then he waved to everyone, "I am here to say goodbye to all of you and welcome you to Hengguo." ”

"Yin Shi, I wish you a smooth journey. Jing You shouted.

"King Heng, under your rule, the kingdom of Heng will surely prosper. Ling Mu said sincerely.

Ye Yanjian also waved goodbye to him, "Have a good trip, in a few days, I will visit Hengguo." ”

Yin Shi waved his hand happily and said, "Heng Guojian, don't forget to bring a few more Jiguo scholars with you." ”

Fengchen and Yin Shi said goodbye at the triumphal arch, Fengchen went to work at the military academy, and Yin Shi went with his sword.

Yin Shi returned to Hengguo, followed the step-by-step process, and diligently managed the government. On the hall, he is not majestic and outstanding, and the civil and military officials all respect him.

On this day, as soon as he sat down, Guan Liangping, the guard general of Western Xinjiang, hurriedly played, "Your Majesty, since the beginning of the autumn season, there have been frequent incidents of burning troops entering the country and endangering civilians in China's western Xinjiang. ”

Yin Shi was incredulous and questioned, "The sky is so high that it is rare for a burning army to be able to cross it, not to mention that my country is close to the edge of the underworld, and there have always been few burning troops entering and leaving, how can the burning army enter and harm so frequently now?"

"Your Majesty, your subordinates have not yet found out where the burning army came from, but your subordinates have led troops to annihilate more than 50 burning troops. ”

"How did the burning army do it?"

"Your Majesty, the composition of the burning army is very complicated, the demon clan can come out to harm day and night, and most people, demons and ghosts come out at night to cause harm. ”

"What kind of demon clan is it?What kind of demon is it?What is a ghost?" Yin Shi asked.

"Your Majesty, the largest number of demons are the remnants of the legendary gluttony, the humans and demons are the remnants of the Enma clan, and the ghosts are the murdered human races, but they are all withered. Gluttony eats living creatures, and human demons and ghosts are called burning ghosts, and they attack the human race. Whoever is killed by the burning ghost will immediately become the burning ghost. ”

"Will the burning army be alone, or will it be a group, and how can it be completely eliminated?"

"Your Majesty, the burning troops we encountered were sometimes alone, sometimes in groups of three or five, but most of them were more than a dozen. Ordinary weapons require the Burning Army to be dismantled into eight pieces to turn it into slag, and a person with high skill should be able to turn it into slag or ashes with a single blow. ”

"How many soldiers are there on the border, and how many casualties are there?"

"Your Majesty, within a thousand miles of our country's western frontier, I command 3,000 soldiers to garrison the border, because there have been few invasions of burning troops in the past, and we are basically reclaiming the border. Therefore, at the beginning of the invasion of the burning army, we were not vigilant enough, and thirty-three people died. ”

"Guan Liangping, I will go to Western Xinjiang with you tonight to inspect the truth on the spot. Yin Shi immediately decided.

After dealing with the government during the day, Yin Shi led a team of 300 strange soldiers, the captain was called An Zhandong, and went to the western Xinjiang with Guan Liangping and his twenty strange soldiers to inspect the infestation of the burning army on the spot.

They lined up in a neat formation and flew through the air. The moon was dark and the wind was high, the stars were guiding the way, and Guan Liangping and his twenty odd soldiers led the way in front.

It took them about four hours to reach Pingshan Town, a small town near Tianbi in western Xinjiang, where the burning army was most harmed.

Guan Liangping ordered his subordinates to light torches, and asked all the strange soldiers to unsheath their swords, and the two walked with their backs to each other. They walked on the dark dirt road of the town, and the doors and windows on both sides were either closed or wide open like dark holes.

"Your Majesty, there were more than 2,000 original residents of Pingshan Town, more than 1,000 people fled in more than ten days, more than 100 people were killed, and the remaining hundreds of people closed their houses day and night, and they did not dare to go out easily. Guan Liangping said as he watched his surroundings look around.

"Should we put out our torches and wait in line?" Yin Shi asked, the golden sword in his hand gleaming.

"Your Majesty, there is a circular square in front, our troops are divided into two roads, you and Captain An will take a group of people to line up there to wait, and I will take a group of people to wait here. ”

Yin Shi, An Zhandong and more than 100 strange soldiers came to the circular square, but the two of them stood with their backs to each other and stood in a circle.

Guan Liangping gave an order, and all the torches were extinguished.

In the darkness, they were all armed with sharp blades, waiting for them.

Yin Shi stood in the inner circle, in the darkness, his eyes wide open, and his ears listened carefully.

Sure enough, not long after, he heard a terrible roar from the dirt road he had just passed, followed by the shouts of the strange soldiers, the light of swords and swords.

Yin Shi was about to divert his attention, when he saw a huge black ghost suddenly appear on the flat ground in front of him, as if it was made of gathered sand, roaring and roaring, coming straight in front of him, saying that it was too late, it was fast, Yin Shi's golden sword slashed, and the flashing white light instantly smashed the black shadow into ashes.

Then, in a quarter of an hour, Yin Shi actually slashed eight black ghosts in a row.

The circular square was temporarily suspended, and there was still fierce fighting on the dirt road, Yin Shi ordered the torches to be lit, and they rushed to the scene of the dirt road to inspect the battle.

Under the reflection of the torches, the burning army here showed its original shape, it turned out that there were really three huge gluttonies, although their bodies were withered, they were like iron armor cast, the black mouth occupied most of the ghost face, the ghost eyes were like crazy knives exposed on the side of the body, and the limbs were also like iron arms and copper claws, and it was difficult to see the appearance of the gluttony to be dismantled, and its roar was even more terrifying.

Yin Shi flew up, the golden sword was aimed at a gluttonous big mouth, and the white light flashed, and the gluttonous immediately turned into ashes. Then he swung his sword and slashed the other two gluttons.

The strange soldiers present saw that King Heng Yinshi's skills were so strong, and they were all in great admiration.

"Find out how many burning troops have just attacked here, and whether our strange soldiers are injured. Yin Shi instructed Guan Liangping and An Zhandong.

After Guan Liangping verified it in detail, he reported, "Your Majesty, just now I have a total of seven gluttonies here, and you kill three. The other four were each dismantled into pieces by the four odd soldiers, but under the reflection of the torches, black smoke rose and turned to ashes. Our odd soldiers were only slightly wounded. ”

"Your Majesty, on our side, you alone killed nine burning ghosts, and no one was injured. An Zhandong reported.

"Let all the strange soldiers go to the square and wait in formation. Yin Shi instructed An Zhandong and Guan Liangping.

Therefore, they continued to wait in formation for more than half an hour, and it was not until the first time that the golden rooster was announced, and they took turns to rest and sit on the ground.
