Chapter 174: Grace and Righteousness

Even Yuwen Junping didn't know why he thought that the arrow he dodged would be shot in the center. It's not that the direction of the initial Blue Wattle shot was wrong. Instead, she calculated that Yuwen Junping would do this. In archery, only Yuwen Junping is her opponent, and only he can feel the arrow feathers shot at her at the last moment.

Coupled with the fact that the two had fought many times in a few months, Lan Jing'an had already sensed that every time he felt the arrow feather attacking, he would definitely dodge to the left. So this time, she deliberately deflected the arrow to the left, and if Yuwen Junping didn't move, he would be shot off his left arm, but as long as he moved his body, it would be fatal with one arrow.

As Yuwen Junping was killed by Lan Jing'an's arrow, the people who followed him were dumbfounded, abandoned their weapons one after another, and surrendered to each other, and some loyal people chose to kill themselves and follow Yuwen Junping.

The ships of the cadres erupted in loud cheers. Lan Jing'an wiped the rain from his face, and instead of smiling, he ordered to continue the search for Wu Daoming.

At this time, the Dayong soldiers who fled to various heights had no leader and had to surrender one after another. And there are still many soldiers and civilians who have fallen into the water, and they are still struggling in the deep water. As long as there were surrenderers in Lan Jing'an's army, they would be rescued from the water and escorted to a place, where they would be guarded by Jiang Shaoheng and the life-killing iron cavalry.

Many Dayong soldiers fought just for a bite of food, and they were forced to be helpless. Up to now, seeing that the cadres and troops were not wiped out, and where there was still any intention of resisting, no matter whether they would be in the water or not, they all begged for help in the water, shouting loudly, willing to surrender, and just begging not to lose their lives in this rolling torrent.

And Wu Daoming, who was in Tuanshan Pu, had already heard about the arrival of the Qianjun army, knew that the general trend had gone, and looked up to the sky and shouted: "The officials of Fancheng misunderstood me!" From the bottom of his heart, he didn't think that he had lost to Lan Jing'an, but to the thief God who was constantly raining. But he didn't dare to say it. He was afraid of being heard by others, and he had to believe in Lan Jing'an's divine power.

Wu Daoming didn't accept his fate, no matter how unfair the heavens treated him, he didn't believe that he didn't have a day to turn the tables! If he did it seventeen years ago, he can do it now!

Wu Daoming looked back at the direction of Fancheng again, and finally ordered, with more than 100 people who were in one place with him, to take the risk and go north from the valley of Tuanshanpu and leave Jingzhou.

Wu Daoming left on the front foot, and Lan Jing'an and the others on the back foot had already chased after him, but due to the torrential rain, a flash flood broke out in Tuanshan, and the mountain stream instantly turned into a torrent, mixed with mud and sand, pouring down. Seeing this, Lan Jing'an had no choice but to lead people back to avoid the flow of sand and stones.

Soon the valley of Tuanshan was filled with a torrent of mud and sand, and there was no chance for Lan Jing'an to travel through. Lan Jing'an looked at Tuanshan from afar, and felt melancholy in his heart. Even though she defeated Dayong with the help of Tianli, she actually let the cunning Wu Daoming escape again, which has to be said to be her biggest regret in this battle.

Lan Jing'an secretly swore in his heart, Wu Daoming, if you are not destroyed by the torrent, I, Lan Jing'an, will one day let you die at my hands, and sacrifice your head to the people of Jiangling and the nine clans of Dingyuan! Wait!

The incessant heavy rain finally stopped on 11 July, the day after the capture of Fancheng by the Qian's army. With the help of Da Shui, the Qianjun defeated Dayong on the north bank of the Han River. The whereabouts of Wu Daoming, the main general of Dayong, are unknown, and the deputy general Yuwen Junping was shot by Lan Jing'an himself, and the rest of the senior generals died and surrendered. In particular, the remaining three princes who accompanied the army were all captured by the cadres.

The 80,000 army led by Wu Daoming, in addition to the nearly 20,000 people who died in the previous battle to defend Xiangyang, and more than 10,000 casualties in the past few months, nearly 10,000 of the remaining 50,000 people were drowned by the flood and died in the flood. Less than 40,000 people survived, all of whom surrendered and voluntarily followed the cadres.

The first thing Lan Jing'an did after taking Fancheng was to order everyone to quickly repair the dam and strengthen the walls of Fancheng. At the same time, Xiangyang, which had never been flooded, brought grain, grass and medicine to save the soldiers and civilians of Fancheng.

The Dayong people in Fancheng, seeing Lan Jing'an so attentive, were grateful to her. In addition, the cadres are like heaven this time, and all the Dayong soldiers and civilians are even more convinced of Lan Jing'an's proverbs, believing that Da Si Ming does have the power of the main god, and if he is against her, he will be against God, and he will not end well.

By 16 July, the waters had finally receded, leaving a devastation in their wake. Lan Jingan assigned Lu Min to take charge of the post-disaster recovery and epidemic prevention work, while Jiang Shaoheng was responsible for the collection of Dayong's 40,000 people.

This great war, which lasted for more than half a year, ended completely. On the battlefield of Xiangfan, a total of nearly 60,000 soldiers of the two armies died here. Counting the people who died when defending Xiangyang City, the lives of 70,000 people were finally exchanged for the peace of Xiangyang City and Jingzhou, and also in exchange for the prestige of Lan Jing'an, and there was no one in the land of Kyushu who doubted the proverbs of the Great Priest.

The news of the great victory of the cadres soon spread to the Jizhou battlefield, and Xiao Qingyun and the others were extremely excited after hearing it. Xiao Qingyun listened to everyone praise Lan Jing'an, and he even had a sense of honor, he was proud of his Ahri feeling. Xiao Qingyun even promised a grand celebration banquet for the cadres in Jizhou that night to share the joy of the Xiangyang cadres together.

And Yankang Emperor Yuwen Moyuan, who also heard the news, almost didn't mention it in one breath in the main hall. He sent a full 80,000 troops, not only did Lan Jing'an not bring them back, Jingzhou was not recovered, and the 80,000 troops were all folded in Lan Jing'an's hands.

Is this Lan Jing'an, who is far away in Xiangyang, still not his Lan'er? How could she do this to him?!

The Lan'er who used to smile at him with low eyebrows, the Lan'er who stayed with him and flew together, and the Lan'er who was obedient to him were all gone. Now Lan Jing'an has become his outright enemy, she, like Xiao Qingyun, is a traitor who wants to destroy the foundation of Dayong Qianqiu!

Yuwen Moyuan felt that his heart ached beyond measure. Until now, he didn't know which one to hate. Is it to hate the emperor who allowed corruption to run rampant and only knew pleasure? Is it the Marquis of Dingyuan, who secretly took in and raised Xiao Qingyun and Lan Jing'an for many years? Is it to hate the woman who makes her heart move and hurt? Or do you hate yourself for being soft-hearted again and again, and it will eventually cause a catastrophe?

There was silence in the court, and all the courtiers lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to come out, for fear that the emperor would be angry. But seeing that Yuwen Moyuan just waved his hand and ordered them to retreat, and then walked back to the dormitory alone.

His dormitory is still decorated in the courtyard of the Mulan Garden, and the jewelry he once gave Lan Jing'an is placed in front of the dressing mirror. All night, Yuwen Moyuan drank alone in front of Lan'er's portrait without saying a word. The long night is dancing, who knows the emperor's heart.

On the morning of the second day, Yuwen Moyuan finally made a decree: the Lan family is a traitor, regardless of the court's grace, and sits on the fierce rebellion. He wants to deceive the people because of the rebellion. and slandered the trouble, leading to the disaster of Jingzhou. Thinking that God has the virtue of a good life, I wanted to settle the discussion, and the elegance failed. Now that the society is in danger, there is no room for it, and both the military and the people should be cut down to prevent it.

When the waiter finished reciting this holy decree in a sharp voice, Yuwen Moyuan's heart was suffocated. Lan'er, you are ruthless, don't blame me for being unjust. For the sake of Dayong's country, I have no choice.
