On the second day after the capture of Lianshan Pass, Fang Yun led the Pearl River Army's middle, left, right, and rear armies to return, while the front army and the Lumen army remained at Lianshan Pass.

Wang Li, the former general of the Pearl River Army, temporarily stayed at Lianshan Pass as the chief general of Lianshan Pass and Xun Tianling.

Xun Tianling realized what he had recently gained, absorbed the power of Wenqu Xing, and after a few days, he looked for the barbarian kings around Lianshan Pass to sharpen himself.

On the morning of the first day of the fourth lunar month, the civil and military officials of Zhucheng and hundreds of thousands of residents who had already received the news went to the outside of Nancheng and looked at the black army in front of them.

Among the returned Pearl River Army, only one big flag was erected.

It is a somewhat old flag, blood red as the base, golden ears as the edge, the spring breeze moves, the banner is unfurled, as if breaking through the ancient battlefield sealed in the long river of history, with hundreds of millions of war spirits out, vaguely revealing three black official books.

Pearl River Army!

Hunt the blood flag, the color of the world.

Behind the banner, there were also a number of armored ox carts, each of which was piled with a large number of barbarian heads.

The moment they saw the banner of the Pearl River Army, many Zhucheng people had sour noses, tears slid down, and some old people even cried loudly.

After a short time, Fang Yun led a large army to the city gate.

Fang Yun rode a black horse at the forefront of the army, and behind him there was a person holding a high banner of the Pearl River Army.

The people of Zhucheng on both sides of the road kept shouting, and many women even kept throwing their purses, handkerchiefs and other things to Fang Yun to show their love.

Since Zhang Wankong's disappearance, the Zhujiang Army has been constantly suppressed, defeated repeatedly, and has almost cowered in the city in the past two years, becoming the laughing stock of the Zhucheng people.

And now, the Pearl River Army has finally achieved an unprecedented victory, even when Zhang Wankong was there, he did not kill hundreds of thousands of barbarians plus five barbarian kings in one battle.

The banner of the Pearl River Army has seen the light of day again and reappeared heroically.

Fang Yun rode on his horse, smiling and greeting the elders of Zhucheng, calmly accepting their cheers.

Entering the southern city, Fang Yun took out the official seal and checked all kinds of biography.

The prime minister of the Qin State wished Fengqiong praise again and again, and said that the previous unpleasantness had passed, and hoped that "Zhang Longxiang" would continue to work hard, not only to win over Fang Yun in terms of literary name, but also to win over Fang Yun in terms of military exploits. Zhu Fengqiong conveyed a message that if nothing else, the King of Chu would send Fang Yun to the Two Realms Mountain.

In addition to Zhu Fengqiong's biography, scholars from Chu and other countries sent congratulatory letters one after another, congratulating Fang Yun on killing the five barbarian kings and completing the immortal feat.

In the history of the Confucian literary world, no scholar could kill five barbarian kings in a row in a single battle.

Even some Chu clans who were indifferent to the Zhujiang Marquis Mansion also sent congratulatory messages.

The Great Confucian Palace, the highest institution in the Confucian literary world, sent an official congratulatory letter, not only congratulating Fang Yun, but also recording this time in the Great Confucian Palace, with this military exploit, Fang Yun could exchange some treasures such as Wenbao or holy pages from the Great Confucian Palace.

Fang Yun quickly browsed the biography, there were all the biography, and there was even a biography that Zhang Jing'an asked the president of Zhurong Academy to write on his behalf.

"Father, today the banner of the Pearl River Army is planted on the Lianshan Pass, I hope that in the near future, the banner of the Pearl River Army can stand on the mountains of the Two Realms! I want all the students of Zhurong Academy to know that our Zhang family is not bragging, but can really do it!"

Fang Yun shook his head lightly, Zhurong Academy is not a paradise, most of the students there are descendants of the powerful people of the Chu State, and many of them have enmity with the Marquis of Zhujiang. Zhang Jing'an must have said how Zhang Wankong had set foot in the Two Realms Mountain during a quarrel, but he was ridiculed by many students in the academy.

Fang Yun sent a letter to the prefect of Zhucheng, wondering if there was any holy decree from the king of Chu or a commendation document from the military.

The result was chilling, and it was indeed discussed in the court, but the king of Chu stopped the topic. Without the order of the king of Chu, neither the prime minister nor the prince could issue a commendation document.

However, the prime minister of Chu and the family of the Taiwei sent a congratulatory letter, which let Fang Yun know that the two high-ranking officials were not the same as the Marquis of Lumen.

When the army entered Nancheng, Fang Yun allowed all the people of the Zhujiang Army to take turns to rest, and he and some of the guards moved into the Marshal's Mansion, packed the things of the Lumen Army and the Lumen Marquis, and sent them to the capital Jingzhou.

After Fang Yun entered the study room of the Marshal's Mansion, he quickly picked up his pen and wrote a chapter, writing the experience along the way in a biased penmanship, and at the same time clearly pointed out in the chapter that he was a scholar and now the master of the Pearl River Army.

The chapter was written in duplicate, one of which was handed over to the official post station, and after the post station was sealed with fire paint for the record, Fang Yun passed the other copy to the imperial court.

Fang Yun knew that the matter would not be simply over, so he began to consolidate the power of the Marquis of Zhujiang.

At the celebration banquet that day, Fang Yun summoned the Zhucheng military, civil officials, literary institutes and famous scholars, on the surface it was idle talk, but in fact it sent a signal to them that he was already a complete Zhujiang Marquis, and from now on, he was the master of Zhujiang City, and anyone who did not know how to stop would definitely cut off his arm.

At the banquet, no one dared to object.

In the Confucian literary world, the status of scholars is extremely high, even the monarch cannot scold, but there are often scholars who scold the monarch to the point of blood, and the monarch does not dare to scold back.

When a new official takes office, it is inevitable to kill chickens and set an example to them.

That night, the Zhujiang army raided eleven families in Zhucheng, some families had persecuted the people of the Zhujiang Marquis, some families had close contacts with the rival families of the Zhujiang Marquis, some families had transactions with the barbarians, and some families were even collateral of the family of the princess of Chu.

The heads of these families basically have civil positions and cannot be killed at will, but they are all imprisoned in the worst prison in Zhucheng and treated as death row prisoners.

As for those who did not have a civil position, Fang Yun announced to the whole city after dawn, asking the people of Zhucheng to expose the crimes of those people, and at the same time asked the prefect of Zhucheng to send someone to investigate.

In just one day, Pearl City has changed.

Fang Yun is not prepared to burn a bigger fire, nor is he ready to kill more chickens, if this is the Shengyuan Continent, then he will definitely start a killing and strict control, and make Zhucheng his own territory, but Zhucheng is just a springboard, a springboard to the Two Realms Mountain.

Only the Pearl River Army is truly valuable, and there is no need to waste too much energy on other aspects.

Fang Yun didn't care about other affairs of Zhucheng at all, this raid was enough to make Zhucheng settle down until he left, so he went all out to reorganize the army.

What the whole army needs most is not anything else, but silver, and for the other armies, military expenses are always in the hands of the imperial court. But for the current Pearl River Army, the silver taels, gold, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, treasures, land deeds and other belongings stolen from those 11 families are enough to arm the Pearl River Army to the teeth.

Fang Yun immediately started planning.

After the first battle, the Pearl River Army had less than 150,000 remaining troops, and less than 100,000 could participate in the war in the near future, so it had to find another 100,000 to replenish.

Fang Yun aimed at the Lumen army and issued a military order to Wang Li of Lianshan Pass, asking him to pick out 50,000 elites from the Lumen army, and at the same time put all Hanlin, Jinshi, Juren and Xiucai into the new army, and replenish them to the Zhujiang army when the time came.

On the afternoon of the second day of the fourth lunar month, Fang Yun got a series of headaches and negative news.
