Spring passed and winter came, and three years passed in the blink of an eye.
In January of the 7734th year of the Imperial Calendar, Tang Lan and Su Muyun mobilized the empire's 400,000 troops and crossed the mountains to attack Lingkong Province.
They were defeated by Long Qianlin, one of the Seven Lingnan Commanders, using a delaying strategy.
The weather was freezing and there was a heavy snowfall.
Let the Imperial Army lose all supplies , was massively attacked by the Yihe State army, and more than 200,000 people were killed.
Lingdong Province and Tongtian Province were captured by the Yihe State.
Thousands of corpses were lying on the Qinling Mountains.
This was the first disastrous defeat after the empire was rebuilt, and even Even Xiang Yu and other generals were injured.
In March, the army returned to the imperial capital.
In the Zetian Palace, Qin Yin's beautiful face became less immature and more mature after being baptized by the weather.
She pressed the hilt of the Purple Yin Sword and stood majestically in front of the throne, looking at her with cold eyes.
Looking at the people in the main hall, he said: "Grandpa, Your Highness the King of the Seven Seas, give me a reason why you achieved this defeat."
Tang Lan and Su Muyun knelt down to His Highness together and remained silent.
Feng Jixing stood aside holding the hilt of his sword, and suddenly came out, clasping his fists and saying: "Your Highness, this battle is not a battle.
Almost every move we make is within the control of our opponent.
Most of the food and grass supplies have been intercepted and burned.
Therefore, the 400,000-strong army lost supplies on the Qinling Mountains, and the delay was too long, and there were not enough cotton-padded clothes.
A heavy snowfall completely caused the imperial army to lose its combat effectiveness. " "What's going on?"
Qin Yin asked.
Feng Jixing said: "In the past three years, Lingnan has once again built nearly a hundred new knights' lodges in Lingbei.
Our many encirclement and suppression campaigns have been in vain.
They are hidden deep in the mountains.
They are too cunning, and those knights continue to attack them."
Our military intelligence was reported to the Yihe Kingdom, which was also the biggest reason for the defeat. " Qin Yin breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Xiang Yu, send troops to guard the borders of Tianshu Province and Cangnan Province.
Don't let the Yihe Kingdom attack again.
Commander Feng, you will be responsible for annihilating the Xia Ke Hotel within half a year. , I don’t want there to be a knight’s villa in the empire.”
"Your Highness, this" "What's wrong?
There's a problem."
"Yes."
Feng Jixing clasped his fists and said, "Does Your Highness know the seven powerful people in the Holy Land of Yihe Kingdom?
Han Jun, Lu Zhan, Fan Yun, Duanmu Fang, Xia Houzhu, Yan Li, and Bu Hai, these seven people are all They are Luo Lan's disciples.
Now three of them have entered the territory of Lingbei, and they are lurking in the knight's villa in the mountains and forests.
This is the reason why we have repeatedly failed to conquer the knight's villa. " "Are we just going to allow them to continue like this?"
Qin Yin's eyes were full of doubts, and she said: "Wei Qiu, along with the Gentian Battalion, will assist Commander Feng to uproot the knights' lodges in Lingbei Province and Cangnan Province."
"Yes, Your Highness," Wei Qiu said with his fists clasped.
On the side, the three generals Qin Yan, Luo Yu, and Feng Xi also looked eager to try.
The Longdan Battalion had not made a move for a long time, and this was an opportunity.
As for killing the Sanctuary, this is not too difficult.
After all, Lin Muyu once left behind 100,000 white diamond arrows, which is the trump card of the Longdan Camp.
"Your Highness" Su Muyun clasped his fists and said with a stern look on his face: "In the battle of Lingkong Province, the empire lost troops and generals.
It was all the fault of the old minister.
The old minister asked for punishment and voluntarily took away the title of King of Yunzhong."
"It's rare for grandpa to understand justice so well."
Qin Yin smiled slightly and said: "That's right, someone is here to deprive Su Muyun of the title of King of Yunzhong and restore the title of Duke of Muyun to show that rewards and punishments are clear.
Grandpa doesn't have to worry about it.

Victory or defeat is a common thing for military strategists.
You can win it back next time." , we have a total of five fertile and fertile lands of Qihai Province, Yunzhong Province, Lingbei Province, Cangnan Province, and Tianshu Province, and the Yihe Kingdom will not last long. " "Yes, Your Highness is wise."
Su Muyun knelt down and bowed to the ground again.
On the side, Tang Lan frowned, and finally slowly knelt down and said: "Your Highness, since Mr.
Yun has resigned from the title of king, Tang Lan should also resign from the title of prince and voluntarily resume his title as Duke Lan."
"That's right."
Qin Yin said happily.
In the afternoon, 5,000 forbidden troops left the city under the leadership of Feng Jixing, followed by 1,000 elites from the Gendan Battalion.
Due to repeated obstructions by Tang Lan and Su Muyun, the Gendan Battalion was never able to expand to more than a thousand people.
Fortunately, Wei Qiu The troops were well led.
These 1,000 people were all elite, skilled in bows and horses, and their combat power was far superior to any army of the same size in the empire.
"Commander of Wei Qiu."
Feng Jixing held the reins and said, "Which hill do you think we should hit first?"
"Longyan Mountain" Wei Qiu looked unhappy and said, "These bastards from the Xia Ke Hotel reoccupied Longyan Mountain a year ago.
This is a shame to our Gendan Camp.
I have long wanted to attack Longyan Mountain."
"Oh well" Feng Jixing raised the corner of his mouth and said: "It's just that the main altar of the Chivalrous Mansion in Lanyan City is currently stationed on Longyan Mountain.
It is said that there is a strong man from the Holy Domain living on the mountain named Bu Hai.
Xiang Yu went there half a year ago.
When we destroyed Longyan Mountain, we were in trouble and almost lost our lives on Longyan Mountain.”
"Xiang Yu is no match for Bu Hai" Wei Qiu couldn't help but be speechless.
"That's not true."
Feng Jixing's eyes turned cold and he said, "At any rate, Xiang Yu had already entered the Holy Land a year ago.
In terms of strength, he should be on par with Bu Hai.
However, he later received a secret order from Duke Lan to withdraw his troops.
Back to Lanyan City."
"snort."
Wei Qiu said coldly: "I guess Tang Lan doesn't want Bu Hai to die."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Feng Jixing pressed the handle of the knife, with the warm spring breeze blowing on his face, and said: "I guess Tang Lan is worried about defeating Xiang Yu, a fierce general, so he is waiting for other imperial troops to go to annihilate Longyan Mountain.
You should also understand , among the major legions in the empire, only the Forbidden Army and the Gentian Battalion directly take orders from the Empress."
"Um."
Wei Qiu smiled meaningfully: "It's a pity that the establishment of the Longdan Camp is controlled within a thousand people, and the establishment of the Forbidden Army is controlled within a limit of 20,000 people.
Otherwise," "Don't think so much."
Feng Jixing tightened the ties of his cloak and said, "One step at a time, but as long as we are here, no one dares to touch Her Highness the Empress.
This is enough."
"yes."
There was some light in Wei Qiu's eyes, and he murmured: "It's a pity that he is no longer in charge, otherwise he is also a person who can make decisions, at least he will not let Her Highness the Empress suffer so much humiliation."
Feng Jixing looked up at the clear sky and said leisurely: "That boy Ayu is indeed a rare general, but it's a pity."
"No more talk, no more talk.
We will station troops at the foot of Longyan Mountain tonight and attack the mountain tomorrow."
"Um" In Lanyan City, the elixir department is filled with birds singing, flowers fragrant, butterflies flying.
Chu Yao slowly opened one hand, and her Ninghua hand slowly pulled away the medicinal essence of the herb.
Her beautiful eyes were very calm.
On the side, the pear flower sword swayed slowly in the air, as if accompanying the mistress.

"Arch Deacon, you should still make the medicine yourself," an old man wearing deacon uniform said with a smile.
"Yes."
Chu Yao nodded lightly and said, "If I want to calm myself down, I really don't know what to do, so I will refine some more potions when I have nothing to do.
Deacon Li, are you okay?"
"Um."
Deacon Li cupped his hand and said: "Over at the temple, we need a few bottles of anti-aging potion, but this anti-aging potion is a level 8 formula.
We old guys can't do anything about it, so we can only trouble the great deacon to refine the potion in person. ”
"Is that so?"
Chu Yao blinked and asked, "Is Ge Yang, the great deacon of the temple, sick again?"
"Yes."
Deacon Li said respectfully: "Arch Deacon Ge Yang has not been in good health since he returned to the temple.
As you know, Arch Deacon Ge Yang has not yet entered the sanctuary, so time is taking away his life.
He is over ninety years old, and I am afraid that he will not be able to reach the holy realm in his lifetime, and he can only rely on anti-aging medicine to maintain his life force. " "I understand."
Chu Yao pursed her red lips and said, "The level 8 formula will take a while to complete.
Please come back to pick it up in the evening."
"yes."
Deacon Li looked aside and saw a black exquisite bead hanging on the bracket of Chu Yao's desk, swaying gently.
This was what Qin Yin got from Lin Muyu and handed it to Chu Yao.
"Archdeacon, who is the figure engraved on this bead?"
he suddenly asked.
Chu Yao was suddenly stunned, her graceful body stood there, and after a long silence, she murmured: "They are the people I dream about, the beloved people I only see in my dreams."
Deacon Li was stunned for a moment, clasped his fists respectfully, bowed to Linglong Pearl and said: "The spirits of Lord Chu Huaimian and Lord Lin Muyu in heaven will definitely protect the prosperity of the empire.
Please don't be too sad.
By the way, Lingbei Marquis a few days ago.
Come to ask for a hand in marriage."
Chu Yao said calmly: "Don't bother me with this kind of thing, I won't marry anyone."
"yes" The temple, the palace in the hearts of the imperial warriors, has been rebuilt, but the black ashes on the walls have not yet been cleared away, as if to let the world remember the shame and hatred of the past.
In the Grand Deacon's office, Ge Yang had silver hair, holding the pen holder with a trembling hand, and was reviewing the pages of the file.
Beside him, a young Silver Star instructor smiled and said: "Arch Deacon, your hand holds the pen."
Trembling more and more."
Ge Yang glanced at him and said, "You are the only one who is troublesome, I know."
He suddenly put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and said with a smile: "I am old.
Originally, this matter should have been done by young people.
It is a pity that the talents in the Imperial Temple are withering.
How many talents were born three years ago?"
Precious lives were lost in the Lanyan City Rebellion, alas."
The young instructor smiled: "The Archdeacon is talking about Deacon Lin Muyu.
Although I have never met him, everyone in the temple remembers this person.
He is the youngest person in the empire with the strength of a heavenly king."
"More than the strength of a heavenly king," Ge Yang said with a faint light in his eyes: "If Ayu hadn't died, with his advancement speed, I'm afraid he would have entered the holy realm by now."
"The Archdeacon's request to His Highness to resign has been rejected again.
Your Highness said that the Gentian Camp also needs people.
Qin Yan cannot return to the temple to serve as the Archdeacon under any circumstances."
"Yes, everyone needs people" Ge Yang sighed leisurely and picked up the pen again
