My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 568 - 200 Choice_4

"In front of the two armies, Chen Sansi first beheaded the Martial Saint Murong Huatu."

"Afterward, surrounded by four Martial Saints, he struck down the Martial Saint Yu Wen Ruzi."

"After severely demoralizing the enemy army, Chen Sansi took the lead and commanded the Hongze Camp soldiers in a charge, killing all the way to the peak of Langju Xu Mountain. Along the way, Chen Sansi alone slew over ten thousand of the enemy."

"Subsequently, he successively killed the Martial Saints Tuoba Junfeng, Gu Wen Bilege, and Duan Kui, as well as the Witch God Sect's High Priest, successfully destroying the main Array Eye of the Blood Sacrifice Array."

"..."

"..."

"In this battle, more than eighty thousand soldiers of the Barbarian Alliance Army were killed. The Hongze Camp suffered a total of seven thousand three hundred sixty-one fallen, and two thousand two hundred nineteen wounded..."

"..."

"On the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month."

"Chen Sansi led all the soldiers of the Hongze Camp to offer sacrifices to the heavens atop Langju Xu Mountain. Thereafter, in the Barbarian Capital, a chan ceremony was held, and the Great Khans of the Four Barbarian Tribes pledged their allegiance to our Great Sheng."

The battle report was very detailed.

But upon hearing the end,

the civil and military officials only extracted three phrases from it.

Drinking at the Ice River!

Sealing Langju!

Chaning at the Barbarian Capital!

These three phrases will become idioms in the future!

Any one of these idioms, when taken out individually, is an extraordinary achievement.

But they...

have merged together!

As a result, the hall fell into a silence as still as death.

If the outcome of the battle report is true, what does it mean?!

It means...

Chen Sansi, with just one camp of soldiers, has all but resolved the problem of the barbarians that has troubled the Central Plains for four hundred years!

An accumulation of nearly ten Martial Saints were lost!

Of the living barbarians, if there are any left at all, there are probably only the last one or two.

And the loss of two hundred thousand troops!

Calculating it,

it's impossible to recover in less than fifty years!

There will be no more wars in the Northern Territory within fifty years!

Such merit...

Even the twelve Admirals whom Grand Ancestor Cao Xie personally ennobled after founding the country didn't achieve such a great merit.

That is to say,

At only twenty-one years of age, Chen Sansi's merit has surpassed anyone since the establishment of the Great Sheng Dynasty!

Worthy of worship in the Grand Ancestor's Temple!

He truly is worthy of worship in the Grand Ancestor's Temple!

In the Martial Temple of Ten Sages, there should be a place for him!

Among the living...

In the Martial Temple of Ten Sages, the saint of the military family!

After a silence that lasted the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, people began to gradually come to their senses, still incessantly drawing breaths of cold air, immersed in shock.

Until the end,

there wasn't much commotion.

It was rather a quiet buzz.

"This General Chen, he's only twenty-one years old, right?"

"At twenty-one years of age, to have achieved such success."

"Truly a role model for our generation of military officers!"

"With such great merit, ennoblement is a certainty."

"Just speaking based on merit, even becoming a State Duke wouldn't be a problem..."

"But that's precisely the issue."

"If he were to be made a State Duke now, at twenty-one, he still has plenty of chances to earn rewards for his service in the future. To go any higher..."

"Wouldn't that mean making him an Aliased King?"

"Has our Great Sheng Dynasty ever had an Aliased King since the founding of the nation?"

"That's a matter for the future."

"..."

Atop the Dragon Chair.

Emperor Longqing's visage showed no emotion, his pupils growing ever more profound.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Only then did the courtiers speak.

"The grave threat of the Barbarian tribes has been removed!"

"After this, there will be no more wars in the Northern Territory!"

"The people of the Northern Territory are most fortunate, as is our Great Sheng Dynasty!"

"The Sheng Dynasty will surely last for thousands of generations!"

"..."

"Yan Liang."

Emperor Longqing's dragon-like voice rose, cutting off the courtiers' words, "In the next few days, discuss with the Cabinet on how to reward Chen Sansi, then send it to the Longevity Palace."

"Your servant obeys!"

Yan Liang bowed and accepted the order.

Emperor Longqing stood up and left.

He went behind the screen and immediately stuffed several Elixir Pills into his mouth.

Evil Qi entered his body!

Fortunately, it wasn't a large amount.

But he feared he would need some time to recover.

"Your Majesty?"

Huang Hong hurried forward but was gestured to stop.

"For decades."

Emperor Longqing sat down right there on a cushion to meditate, "My old Brother, Sun Xiangzong, is about to pass away, one hundred years of lifespan, it should be considered a happy demise, I have done right by him."

"Naturally."

Huang Hong agreed, "Sun Dushi has rendered great services to Society and the Great Sheng, but at the same time, he has several times shown disrespect to Your Majesty, I still remember in the 57th year of Longqing, when he stabbed the then Minister of War to death outside the Imperial Palace."

"He's committed not a few such sins."

"Each one a capital offense."

"Allowing him to live until now is entirely due to Your Majesty's magnanimity, and also a remembrance of past affection, Your Majesty, you have certainly done right by him and every courtier."

"Yes, the trouble in the North is gone."

Emperor Longqing closed his eyes, "A new trouble has arisen, Sun Xiangzong has been deceiving me until his death."

"Your Majesty means?"

Huang Hong had a vague guess, but he did not dare to disturb further and slowly withdrew.

Meanwhile.

The eunuchs in front of the screen also loudly declared, "Court is dismissed—"

...

Daqing.

Imperial Palace.

Imperial Study Room.

"Sister?"

Gu Xinlan, who had been waiting daily at the back door, finally saw the Empress in her black and gold gown return on her flying sword.

She bit her lip anxiously, "How did it go? Why don't I see Brother Shi?"

"He's at Yin Mountain."

The Daqing Empress walked, the breeze brushing past her, the flying sword rapidly shrinking until it became pocket-sized and then disappeared.

"Yin Mountain?"

Gu Xinlan quickly recalled this place.

As a military officer's wife, she had maps hanging in her home, and even without studying them deliberately, she had glanced at them occasionally and naturally knew what that place was.

"Yikes."

Gu Xinlan voiced her concern, "Isn't that the Barbarians' Capital City? Brother Shi only had a little over ten thousand men with him this time, how could they have fought their way there..."

"Sister actually knows how many men he has."
