No one in the world would believe that the Holy Order War would end so hastily and easily.
Doesn’t this need to be written in great detail?
Shouldn't they fight for three hundred rounds with sword energy like rainbows and sword light flickering, and then die tragically in the end?
Shouldn't the survivors be covered in wounds and dying, but still watch the world with a smile on their faces?
Nothing.
Apart from the burst of gunfire and the five corpses on the ground, nothing happened. They didn't even draw their swords. This holy-level battle that should have shocked the martial arts world ended just like that.
The corpse was left in the wilderness, becoming a delicacy in the mouths of vultures, which seemed a bit bland.
…
"Are you waiting for something?"
Fu Xiaoguan's convoy headed towards Green Flag State. In the dragon chariot, Xu Yunqing looked at Fu Xiaoguan's expression and asked a question.
"The Fatty went to kill Su Changsheng. I'm waiting for news from him."
Xu Yunqing was shocked. "Isn't he seeking death again? How many people did he bring with him?"
"I brought four."
Xu Yunqing finally felt relieved, but he saw Fu Xiaoguan grinning, "Su Changsheng brought five!"
He added, "Five holy ranks."
"This... isn't the fat man in danger again?"
"That won't happen this time. They're all carrying rifles. Even if Su Changsheng is wearing that turtle shell, he can be killed with just one shot."
In the past, Xu Yunqing would never have believed that a single shot could knock down the Holy Steps, but now she believed it because she also had a rifle like this.
This thing is very useful. Not only is it extremely powerful, but you don't even need to carry a sword to fight with others.
Back in the border town, if Fan Wuxiang had this rifle in his hand, what would he be?
"Should we send someone to check it out?" Xu Yunqing was still a little worried.
"Su Mo is nearby with a thousand men."
"oh."
At this moment, Liu Jin ran over and whispered through the curtain, "Your Majesty, the secret document from the Tianji Pavilion."
Fu Xiaoguan lifted the car curtain and took it. He unfolded one of the letters and took a look, then he immediately laughed.
"This fellow He Sandao is beyond my expectation. He actually managed to defend Dading Prefecture with 20,000 men... deserve a reward!"
"Win?"
"We won! He Sandao united over 300,000 Liao soldiers, plus his 20,000 Marines, and held off the Thunder Army's fierce attacks for a day and a night. Zuo Mu's First Marine Army arrived just in time and won the battle. Over half of the enemy troops were killed or wounded, and the rest fled."
Xu Yunqing also laughed, "That's definitely a reward!"
Fu Xiaoguan finally felt relieved. He looked calm and composed these days, but deep down he was extremely worried that He Sandao and his 20,000 men would be eaten by Su Changsheng.
The casualties in this battle were very small. Although it was a battle to defend the city, the opponent was the army that Su Changsheng had trained over the years. Its strength should not be underestimated. It seems that we have to re-evaluate the combat effectiveness of the Daxia army.
With the current territory of Daxia, including Western Xia and Liao Dynasty, the army has eight independent armies plus a cavalry corps, a total of 900,000 people, enough to guard the border of Daxia.
The navy now has three armies and 20,000 marines, totaling 320,000 people. As long as there are enough ships, it is enough to open up the waters of Daxia.
The army will be organized according to its current structure. The main task in the next stage will be to digest the Western Xia and Liao dynasties, as well as to eliminate enemies from the sea.
In the next five-year plan, the Silk Road on land must be opened up, and the Silk Road waterway on the sea must also be opened up. Once these two routes are opened, the economy of Daxia will be truly stable.
Fu Xiaoguan heaved a sigh of relief, picked up the second letter, opened it, and was immediately shocked—
"This guy! He's totally lawless!"
Xu Yunqing was stunned. "Who? What happened?"
"He Sandao!"
"Didn't he just accomplish something great?"
"Yes, but this guy took two million taels of silver from the Liao Dynasty treasury to reward his 20,000 troops!"
Xu Yunqing was amused. "Mom thinks he did the right thing. Otherwise, why would the soldiers risk their lives like this?"
Fu Xiaoguan did not argue with Xu Yunqing. This topic could not be opened!
The military has its own rules, and the country has its own requirements.
Being a soldier is a profession, they are born to fight!
The state provides food and wages to soldiers. If they die in battle, the state also provides pensions and even supports the martyrs' families.
He Sandao's actions will lead to a very bad consequence - soldiers are fighting for money!
Those who fight for money are called mercenaries, not the country's regular army!
He Sandao has already made the matter a done deal, and there is no way to take it back. No matter what, he has to give this guy some face in the army.
So... this guy needs to be sent to face the wall and reflect on his mistakes. As for the reward, it's just a bullshit!
…
In the evening, Fatty and his group, along with Su Changsheng, caught up with Fu Xiaoguan's convoy.
The convoy stopped on this grassland. After setting up camp, Fu Xiaoguan met Su Changsheng in a barracks.
"Master..." Fu Xiaoguan looked at Su Changsheng carefully, "I gave you two chances."
"I was paying tribute to the martyrs in Xiaoheyuan. It wasn't a show. I knew you were watching. I thought you could see what kind of person I was with your wisdom, but you didn't, or you didn't want to see what kind of person I was."
"Outside Guoyun City, I was paying tribute to Peng Chengwu, and it wasn't just for show. You were watching too. If you turned and left... there would be a place for you in the world, because I wouldn't send anyone to hunt you down."
"But you still didn't leave."
"I actually respect you very much. From your eight senior brothers and sisters, I can see that you are a wise person. A wise person like you should not do such a foolish thing. So I don't understand, so I want to ask you a question."
"Why?"
Fu Xiaoguan brewed a pot of tea for Su Changsheng and handed it to him. Su Changsheng smiled calmly, "I just want to see if the chosen one will die unexpectedly."
Fu Xiaoguan frowned slightly. He thought Su Changsheng would say that it was to restore the Chen Dynasty, but he didn't expect it to be such an absurd reason.
"You don't believe it?"
"I find it hard to believe."
Su Changsheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. "The Chen Dynasty was destroyed by the Yu Dynasty, which shows that the Chen Dynasty was corrupt and should be destroyed. The Yu Dynasty was destroyed by your Great Xia, which also shows that the Yu Dynasty is no longer adapted to the development of history."
"When dynasties change, there must be reasons for it, so I have never thought about restoration."
"Instead of restoring the past, it's better to build a new era, just like what you are doing now."
"You did very well, really well! Master, I am very pleased. You are indeed the chosen one. It is only natural that Master lost to you."
This sentence did not answer Fu Xiaoguan's doubts, and Su Changsheng did not seem to want to answer them. He looked at Fu Xiaoguan carefully.
"Don't open the eighteenth floor of Tianji Pavilion!"
"If you must open it, you must carry with you the inkstone that your master gave you."
These two incomprehensible sentences made Fu Xiaoguan even more confused. "What do you mean?"
Su Changsheng suddenly smiled, a mouthful of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
