Volume 2: Youxue Mingchan Chapter 339: Post-War Turmoil
When the Xingyue army set out for the Silver Snow Cold City, Yun Scorpion had already led people to withdraw. The hidden dangers brought by those poisonous insects made it impossible for them to support a war at all. Night Wind's fame flourished again and began to spread among the three kingdoms.
Chu Haoyun didn't chase either, he knew very well that Yun Scorpion had always kept some hole cards unrevealed. In this battle, although he had the help of the insect tide, less than half of Zhong Weiqing's 100,000 people survived in the end. The reorganization team of the war slave regiment where Chu Leiming and the others belonged was even more miserable. Since most of them were war slaves who served as cannon fodder, they were in the city, and they were in a head-to-head confrontation with the armies of the two countries, and they would not have been able to compete with the well-equipped regular armies without the help of the insects.
When the army led by Yun Scorpion retreated into the ice and snow plank road, it was filled with more than 100,000 of them, and only a third of them remained. And sensing the arrival of the Xingyue army, Chu Haoyun also secretly dismissed the insect tide. And, instead of the identity of Night Wind as a Soul Eater puppet, he successfully transformed his identity into Que Jiuzhong.
"Que Jiuzhong, I have done what I promised you, and in the future, we will not owe each other, and we will still not die when we meet again!" the Soul Eater puppet disappeared without a trace, leaving behind words like Night Wind. Chu Haoyun came to Mo Qiulan and Zhong Weiqing, and the three Chu Leiming brothers, who met Zhong Weiqing, couldn't help but have some tears in their eyes. Chu Haoyun learned that the three of them were also the most intimate henchmen around Zhong Weiqing.
Then he went to look for Qin Bing, but Qin Bing didn't know when he had left. Chu Haoyun couldn't find it, so he had to give up for the time being. Then, the Xingyue army entered the ruined Silver Snow Cold City, and everything seemed to have returned to the initial stage of the war, except for things and people. It's just that the Qiulan Iron Cavalry has existed in name only, and it is the army that has been completely controlled by the forces of the Imperial City that has re-entered here.
Moreover, Chu Haoyun's battlefield sneak attack also disrupted the plans of most of the people at the top of Xingyue. In the face of such a good opportunity, they also have to temporarily follow this variable and continue to make peace. Otherwise, the rising public opinion within Xingyue will make them extremely passive.
The new commander greatly praised Zhong Weiqing and the others, and asked to see the night wind, after Chu Haoyun sneered and refused on behalf of the night wind. That guy directly wanted to reorganize the remaining personnel here, and Chu Haoyun was angry and directly shot him seriously injured.
They were not seen to act during the war, but after the war, they came here to show off their might. Thinking of the tragedy caused by the conspiracy of the three countries, Chu Haoyun could no longer tolerate the arrogance of this group of guys. Sure enough, under Chu Haoyun's deterrence, no one dared to cause trouble easily. After all, in order to prevent the cloud scorpion from finding an excuse, the strongest of the people they came this time was no more than the Nine Layers of the Void Spirit Realm.
In order to prevent accidents, the two teams led by Zhong Weiqing, Chu Leiming and others were integrated again and stationed alone away from this group of guys. However, this can't stop the small actions of those guys. The battle of the night wind made Zhong Weiqing and them establish too big a heroic image, if they were allowed to develop, maybe they would develop a second Mo Yuanshan.
As a result, their subordinates began to make secret contacts, and deceived many war slaves and people who originally belonged to the regular army of the Chen family through coercion and inducement of the country's righteousness, and other means. In this way, the seven or eight people integrated by Chu Haoyun and their side are passing rapidly.
Some of the centurion officers below were restless but helpless about the situation. Only Chu Haoyun and Zhong Weiqing were there, watching all this with cold eyes. Even if they want to reunite their forces, those wall grasses will have to be removed sooner or later, and it is better to clean them up now than to let them become uncertain factors.
Eventually, the flow of people began to expand, and even some of the Qiulan Iron Riders joined the departing ranks. A few people who were calm received a message at this time, which made them a little uneasy.
The army of the forces in the Imperial City on the opposite side confided a piece of news, saying that Mo Yuanshan did not die in this war, and he and the hundred Qiu Lanwei suddenly disappeared from the battlefield in the final battle. There is even a version that they fled directly, which made Zhong Weiqing's heart angry, if it wasn't for Mo Qiulan pulling it, Zhong Weiqing would have rushed over to ask what was going on.
That night, Chu Haoyun controlled a rumor spreader through the Phantom Pupil. From his consciousness, Chu Haoyun knew that although most of these rumors were made up. However, when Mo Yuanshan and his most elite hundred Qiu Lanwei fought in the final battle, they did not leave corpses on the battlefield, so Yun Yuan also deliberately searched for a long time with hundreds of people.
Such news is a mixed bag. The good news is that Mo Yuanshan may not be dead, but the sad thing is that such news has shaken the hearts of many people.
On the third day, the army received the news of Yun Scorpion's retreat. According to the report of the secret investigation on the enemy's eyeline, the cloud scorpion has been recalled to the imperial city by the Battle Cloud Emperor.
On the fifth day, news came from the Xingyue Imperial City, asking Chu Haoyun and others to go to the Imperial City to accept the reward for their military exploits. However, they knew very well that the Imperial City was going to completely separate them from the few remaining teams around them. In this case, Chu Haoyun also made a ruthless attack, and went crazy again that day, thinking that he had returned some kindness to Mo Yuanshan, and killed only one person from the envoy group who came to deliver the news.
"Grandma, you bastards, do you really think we are easy to bully?Believe it or not, Lao Tzu went to find Night Wind again to join forces once, so that you can taste the pain of the cloud scorpion?" At the same time, some rumors spread rapidly through the people controlled by the Phantom Pupil under Chu Haoyun's deliberate spread.
They gradually discovered some "insiders" of this battle, and Que Jiuzhong joined forces with Night Wind to lay out. Not only did they learn that Night Wind had rescued Zhong Weiqing and them from the War Cloud Country, but they also vividly spread the battle of Night Wind to control the insect tide in Silver Snow Cold City. Later, the officers confirmed from the mouths of those who "defected" that they did have a deeper understanding of the horrors of the night wind.
In view of Chu Haoyun's cruel words, as well as his performance in this battle. They had to report back to the Imperial City, and when the Imperial City received the news. The seventy or eighty thousand people on Chu Haoyun's side have already left, except for the five thousand Qiu Lanwei, only the three thousand war slaves who followed Chu Leiming's three brothers, Chu Haoyun and Zhong Weiqing, have relieved them of their status as war slaves and made them real members of this eight thousand team.
And they were also faintly stationed at Chu Haoyun's station, forming a huge blockade area.
Just when the new order of the Imperial City had not yet arrived, the arrival of another wave of people completely disturbed the minds of Xingyue and the others. The person who came was none other than the notary of this war. This time, he came as the imperial history of Yulan on behalf of the Empress Yulan, and informed everyone that the Empress had ordered that no more wars should be provoked between the Three Kingdoms within a year. This time, Jun Chang had just finished his business from the Imperial City of Zhanyun Country and came here.
After seeing Que Jiuzhong, he often showed unusual enthusiasm. This made Chu Haoyun a little confused, but those officers of the Imperial City forces gritted their teeth. As they were in a high position, they knew very well that if they could be appreciated by the Yulan Empire, it would be far more glorious than what they were doing now.
After learning that Chu Haoyun had turned his face against the Imperial City army in the city because of Zhong Weiqing and the sergeants behind him, he smiled and released a kind gesture, which made Chu Haoyun and everyone stunned!
This makes the power of the Imperial City no one dare to speak out, the Yulan Empire, as the top boss of Xingyue, although the Emperor is often only a royal history, but after he came to Xingyue on behalf of the Empress Yulan, his rights are much stronger than many people who are crowned kings. Moreover, if it is for the sake of such a trivial matter to anger people like Junchang, unless they do not want to live. So, they were very acquainted with each other and let Chu Haoyun and the others go with the envoy of Jun Chang.
And they passed on the situation here to the Xingyue Imperial City as quickly as possible, so that the people at the higher levels would have a headache.
When the Xingyue Imperial City and other forces were puzzled, Chu Haoyun led 8,000 people led by Zhong Weiqing to march towards the Imperial City. The destination of Jun Chang this time was also the Xingyue Imperial City, and he could have taken the flying demon beast directly to go directly, but this old guy didn't know what he was thinking, so he had to go with Chu Haoyun and the others.
With this free customs clearance document, Chu Haoyun is also very happy. Under the terrifying identity of the troubled monarch, all the cities on the road treated each other with courtesy. So that some of the original war slaves among the 8,000 people finally felt the long-lost feeling of being respected. Although all this was only because of the troubles of the king, they were also overjoyed, glad that they had stayed! They could even foresee what role those defected war slaves would play in the final part of the imperial city's forces, and this time, they had won themselves semi-freedom.
Along the way, Jun Chang's enthusiasm for Chu Haoyun made him a little unbearable. At first, Chu Haoyun often invited Chu Haoyun to ride in the carriage with him, but Chu Haoyun, who was favored by him, was embarrassed to refuse. However, the next thing he realized was that he had made a very big mistake.
Like a tireless machine, he kept talking to him, trying to get news about Liu Xiangling or the Heavenly Weeping Sect in various ways. Chu Haoyun could only deal vaguely, his spirit was tense, he always paid attention to his words and deeds, and even, every time before answering a question about Junchang, he would demonstrate what he was going to say several times in the sea of knowledge. It's so tiring to talk to the old guy!
In the end, the Suffering Jun often mentioned the night wind intentionally or unintentionally, and exaggerated the battle of Silver Snow Cold City. Following this old guy's words, Chu Haoyun finally encountered a question about asking about the situation of the night wind. In this regard, Chu Haoyun could only prevaricate on the grounds that he didn't know about it.
He only told the sufferer that the essence of the night wind is not bad, but his personality is extreme. The two have always been at odds, last time he was chased and killed by a strong man in the Heavenly Realm, as Que Jiuzhong, he didn't want a strong rival to die, so he followed and rescued the night wind who escaped from the tiger's mouth. And Night Wind's action this time was also agreed to come because he didn't want to owe him a favor.
He was often skeptical, and finally asked Chu Haoyun if he could contact Night Wind, he was very interested in Night Wind and wanted to ask him to find out. This made Chu Haoyun even more vigilant, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "I'm sorry, unless we are very close, I can't find the night wind." However, in the last battle of Silver Snow Cold City, in order to be able to better contact him, he left a piece of Zimu Jade. My piece is Ziyu, which can only pass on the information of the mother jade in the hand of the night wind, and the one in the hand of the night wind should be able to sense the direction of the child jade. Therefore, I can only inform him to see, and as for whether he will show up, I am not sure. ”
Originally, Chu Haoyun wanted to deny it directly. But thinking of his cooperation with Night Wind this time, maybe a similar situation will happen in the future. In addition, there had been rumors circulating that Que Jiuzhong was cooperating with Night Wind, so he had to make up such a reason.
Although he maintained a skeptical gaze, he finally had to give up his questioning of the night wind. Just told Chu Haoyun and asked him to send a message to Night Wind, hoping that Night Wind could go to the Star Moon Imperial City in seven days. For the rest, the sufferer is often silent!
At this point, the first day of the trip had passed, and Chu Haoyun felt that his spirit was almost collapsed. It's too much effort to chat with an old guy like Junchang. He vowed never to be alone with such a person again. As the sky gradually darkened, they came to the edge of a city and camped, after all, the eight thousand men and horses behind Zhong Weiqing were still too dazzling.
At this time, Chu Haoyun finally broke free from the clutches of Jun Chang. When he saw Mo Qiulan and the others, he even had a feeling of being in a different world.
On the afternoon of the second day of the journey, news of the armistice order of the Yulan Empire had spread. Moreover, the details of the Battle of Silver Snow Cold City also began to circulate. When Chu Haoyun and the others heard this, they were all a little dazed. The version that has been circulated this time is very close to the real situation.
Those Imperial City forces didn't take the credit? You must know that the previous defeat of Yinxue Cold City was extremely asymmetrical with this victory. Once rumors and public opinion are manipulated by people with intentions, it is easy to cause a stain on the Xingyue military and be relegated to the forefront by public opinion.
However, when Chu Haoyun found a source that was spreading these news with his phantom pupils, he couldn't help but smile a little! These seemingly ordinary guys turned out to be the meticulous work of Zhanyun Country? These guys had already begun to spread such news before Xingyue officially released the specific battle situation. He was still struggling with how to stabilize his heels, but he didn't want the enemy to help him do a good job of public opinion propaganda.
This can make the Xingyue military angry, and they originally wanted to grab the merit and re-establish a new image, but after getting the help of Jun Chang and Que Jiuzhong and the others, they were depressed. They couldn't figure out the plans of the troubled monarchs, and they were worried that the Yulan Empire valued Que Jiuzhong or the night wind, if they directly suppressed it at this time, it would undoubtedly be against the Yulan Empire represented by the troubled monarchs, as long as they were willing, they could control public opinion at any time and spread the truth to every corner of the stars and moons, and it was precisely because of this that they did not take action for a long time.
When Chu Haoyun and the others had gone through a seven-day long journey, at dusk on the seventh day, they finally stepped into the realm of the Imperial City. The boundary of the Xingyue Imperial City is a radius of thousands of miles, and it is a prosperous scene. Let the battle-hardened soldiers behind Zhong Weiqing finally begin to relax.
"You will arrive at the Imperial City in two hours, Xingyue, this time let the old man see how you deal with the variables arranged by the empress. He often sat in the carriage, looking at the Xingyue Imperial City, which was already faintly visible, and the snow peak that stood proudly not far from the Imperial City, his old face was full of bright smiles. Unconsciously, he touched the two jade orders in his arms and slowly closed his eyes.
