Two days later, the army set out again.
After the army left, all that was left in the city was the endless breath of death, just like Xitong and Beiliang in the past.
The next few cities also did not escape the fate of massacre.
After a few days, the army finally arrived at the Mobei Royal City.
As soon as they arrived at the royal city, Jiang Jiuyue immediately ordered his troops to surround all the back roads of the royal city and not allow anyone to escape from the royal city.
Most of the elite troops of the Mobei Army had been killed in the fire. Today, it is difficult for the Mobei Royal City to resist the attack of the army.
But Mobei Royal City is a royal city after all, and it is not easy to attack it.
Jiang Jiuyue directly took out the gunpowder from the Mobei military camp.
The use of gunpowder greatly accelerated the siege. The Mobei Army was unable to withstand the gunpowder attack and the city gate was quickly breached.
The city was in chaos. Xiao wanted to escape, but the city was surrounded by Da'an troops on all sides like an iron barrel, and there was no way to escape.
At this time, the Mobei royal court was in a state of panic.
The royal families of Mobei could never have imagined that the King of Mobei had personally led his army to the battle, and had captured two cities in succession, and even captured the enemy's general alive, but now the King's city had been broken into by the Da'an army.
Jiang Jiuyue, holding a knife, walked into the Mobei royal court step by step.
Outside the royal palace, the guards were still fighting desperately, while the royal family were hiding in the palace and trembling.
The resistance of the Guards was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Soon, all of them were killed.
After killing all the imperial guards, Jiang Jiuyue walked into the palace with blood still dripping from the blade of his sword.
A group of young women were slumped near the throne in the main hall. They were probably the concubines of King Mobei.
Behind them were a few children who looked underage, both boys and girls, who should be the children of the King of Mobei.
The current King of Mobei was not very old, so he should not have any young princes and princesses.
Seeing that the Da'an army had already rushed into the hall, the women and children became even more frightened. They knelt down and prayed to God for protection, asking the Da'an soldiers not to be so cruel and not to kill them directly.
"Your Highness, how do we deal with these people? Should we kill them directly... or spare their lives?"
Jiang Jiuyue glanced coldly at the person who asked the question, "Why do you want to save their lives?"
The man was speechless, but he understood what Jiang Jiuyue meant.
"The King of Chu is in trouble. No one from Mobei will be left alive!"
Another soldier shouted immediately, then rushed forward with a knife in hand.
Jiang Jiuyue took out a handkerchief and wiped the knife in 깊's hand. "How can the prince of Mobei spare their lives?"
After saying that, she threw the handkerchief in her hand, turned around and walked out of the hall filled with blood.
In this battle, the Da'an army completely wiped out the Mobei army, captured six cities including the royal city, and almost destroyed the century-old foundation of the Mobei royal court.
After dealing with the Mobei royal family, Jiang Jiuyue moved into the bedroom that was originally the Mobei King's.
She asked 그 to bring pen and ink, and started writing a letter to Qi Ji.
The content of the letter was very simple, without any greetings. It simply recorded everything that had happened to her after she arrived at the border.
After writing the letter, Jiang Jiuyue sent cavalry to deliver it to the capital city at an accelerated speed of 800 miles.
After a long and arduous journey, seven days later, the urgent military report from 800 miles away was placed on Qi Ji's desk.
When Qi Ji opened the letter, the first sentence was: I have massacred all the people in the six cities of Mobei and killed all the royal family members. Don't worry, there will be no Mobei in the future.
Qi Ji's eyes widened when he saw this, and then he looked around: Mobei is now full of empty cities. We can arrange for you to live in them later, or you don't have to live there. The conditions here are average, not as good as our Da'an.
Qi Ji wanted to laugh when he saw it, this was indeed a letter written by Jiang Jiuyue, his way of thinking was different from others.
[Yes, you should also know that General Zhenyuan is dead. Send someone to guard the border immediately. I will definitely not stay at the border. I want to return to Beijing. 】
Qi Ji became worried again after hearing this sentence. After General Zhenyuan died, who in the court could guard the border?
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiuyue seemed to guess that he didn't know who to send to the border, and then gave him some advice.
[Let General Weiyuan come to the border. The Mobei clan has been wiped out and the border is peaceful. He has never been on the battlefield, so he can come and lead the troops and gain some experience. 】
Qi Ji slammed the table. She was really quick-witted and made the decision!
The young General Weiyuan, who had never been on the battlefield, soon received an imperial edict, allowing him to set out for garrison at the border.
At the same time that General Weiyuan received the order to set off, Jiang Jiuyue also led the army back to Da'an after resting in the Mobei Royal Court for two days.
The return journey was much slower than the pursuit. After more than half a month's trek, the army finally returned to Guning City where they started.
A few days after the army returned to Guning City, General Weiyuan also arrived with his army.
Jiang Jiuyue was very satisfied with Qi Ji's speed. He handed over the military power to General Weiyuan and immediately set off back to the capital.
Now that she has taken over, there is no point for her to stay at the border, so she might as well go back quickly.
After more than half a month of living outdoors, Jiang Jiuyue finally returned to the capital.
Qi Ji led the civil and military officials to welcome them outside the city, which was considered the highest treatment for returning soldiers.
Jiang Jiuyue had been tired for so long and had no good face towards Qi Ji. She just said a few perfunctory words to him and went straight back to the Prince Chu's Mansion.
After this battle, no one in the court dared to question Jiang Jiuyue anymore, and no one even dared to oppose the major event that women could participate in the imperial examinations.
But she actually began to worry. If Jiang Jiuyue rebelled, who in the court would be her opponent?
Although Qi Ji is not orthodox, he is the emperor, after all, it is the destiny. But if Jiang Jiuyue covets the throne and becomes the empress, the world will be in chaos.
After discussing it, several ministers who were worried about the future came up with a bad idea.
The next day, several ministers, led by Wang Ge Lao, entered Qi Ji's imperial study after the court session.
"Your Majesty, this time the Prince of Chu has returned victoriously. While we are happy, we are also a little nervous!"
Qi Ji glanced at these old men and felt that they were not holding back their farts.
In fact, he did not quite like these pedantic old men, but they were really old and had no real power in the court. They would all retire and return home in two years, so he did not bother to deal with them.
"Your Majesty, if Prince Chu is so capable and wants the throne..."
Qi Ji waved his hand. "If she wanted to be the emperor, with her ability, would it be my turn to sit on this position now? My dear minister, please stop worrying about it."
However, several old officials still felt that it was inappropriate. They were afraid that Jiang Jiuyue had no intention of seizing the throne, but if she won this battle, she would become disloyal.
"I think that the best way to completely stop the idea of Prince Chu becoming emperor is for Your Majesty to marry Prince Chu and make her your queen. In this way, she will no longer have the intention to seize the throne."
