Chapter 1: The Wolf's Affection and the Concubine's Desire

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

In the later years of Zichuan Yun, he suddenly awakened to a realization. Despite the strong opposition from all the generals and high-ranking officials, he turned around and actively advanced into the Far East, an area traditionally regarded as the territory of the demon race. To others, this was tantamount to seeking death; the demon race was not coming to trouble you, and you should be celebrating instead. Yet, someone was foolish enough to provoke them! However, Zichuan Yun's plan proceeded remarkably smoothly.

Zichuan Xiu slowly began to speak, each word filled with a fierce intensity: "Lord Ge Yingxing, how unjust it is, unable to close my eyes in death!"

... ... ''

Certainly, the rapid spread of the rebellion can be attributed, in no small part, to the upper echelons of the family rule's lack of attention and slow response to the situation

Tang Chuan asserts in the text: "The great rebellion of 779 appears to be coincidental, yet it actually has its historical, economic, political, cultural, and geographical inevitability."

Conservatively estimated, the number of participants in the rebellion has reached 300,000—military scholars discuss the Far East incident

When the main force of the Far East Army finally managed to capture the elusive main force of the Coalition of Races at Chishuitan in Yun Province, Luo Bo and Lin Bing both felt a sense of relief and ordered the commencement of a formal battle.

In just one month, the rebellion expanded from a single village to seven provincial regions, with the number of participants reaching as high as 500,000. The momentum of the rebellion is so fierce and its spread so rapid that it leaves everyone feeling utterly at a loss.

Shirakawa's eyes turned red, and tears were about to fall. She took out a handkerchief to wipe them and said: "My mother's great-aunt's cousin's fiancée's brother's neighbor has stomach cancer, and the surgery costs a lot of money... I have no choice; the reserve salary is not high, and I can only sell the ancestral property."

The exhausted Zichuan family army was unable to withstand the onslaught of this fresh force

It does not matter; as long as you, esteemed adult, are willing to help, we will be equally grateful regardless of the outcome

Sir, I also have a property in the Minsk region that I intend to liquidate

Sterling appeared somewhat distracted. Upon hearing Zichuan Canxing's question, he pondered for a moment and replied, "I agree to draw troops from Glock, but it will not be a complete mobilization of the entire army... A few divisions should be sufficient to quell the rebellion. After all, the rebellion is composed of a disorganized mob, and their combat effectiveness will not be very strong, nor do they have a unified and coordinated command system... I believe it should not be difficult to restore order."

... ... ''

Have the little bunnies had enough fun? Come back to me before noon

The purpose of his publication is actually to obtain a senior professional title, which would allow him to receive a higher salary. The ones who truly suffer are the editors who review the manuscripts; none of them have managed to read through the title of his article in one breath without feeling faint.

After receiving the order from the command center, Deputy Commander Lin Bing shouted angrily: "Does Luo Minghai understand military strategy! Turning back at this moment is tantamount to suicide for the army! I will curse him a thousand times!"

A moment of silence ensued, leaving everyone astonished and speechless

Oh, of course I am not Ming Yu! I am Ming Yu's older brother! Is this esteemed person looking for us for something? Ah, we are all civilized people, let's talk things over, no need to act like this...

His cold gaze was directed towards the podium of the memorial service, where Zichuan Canxing was delivering the eulogy

Lonk City has been reduced to ashes by rioters! The rebels have begun a massacre of humanity

President Luo Minghai let out a cold snort, sneering: "It seems that Dilling regards the mob as easy to kill as the commoners of the imperial capital! But isn't your specialty killing commoners?"

***

... ... ''

Over one million rebels launched repeated fierce assaults on Fort Valen! Urgent distress messages flew back to the command center like snowflakes, each one more severe than the last

Di Lin smiled bitterly: "It is useless to say it. When Lei Hong just rebelled, I suggested transferring the central army to the Far East, but no one listened to me; at the onset of the rebellion, I urged to quickly recall the troops to deal with Lei Hong and the civil unrest, even suggesting a temporary truce with Lei Hong, yet no one heeded my words. Instead, they proposed to withdraw troops from west of the Valen Fortress. Next, I suspect the command will order the Far East army to ignore Lei Hong's rebel forces and focus entirely on the civil unrest—what a pity, they are always a beat behind the situation."

Sterling displayed a pained expression, which appeared particularly poignant on his granite-like resolute face. Zichuan Xiu immediately softened: "Alright, I will give you fifteen minutes!"

At this moment, the commanders had already understood their previous mistakes and the correctness of Di Lin, and they prepared themselves to endure Di Lin's scathing rebukes and sharp sarcasm—they made themselves as resolute as stone

Your return to the country will have to wait for a while; the Far East is currently very chaotic and unsafe. Do not worry, I will definitely find a way to help you return

Zichuan Xiu furrowed his brow: "Is it really that bad?"

Sterling, think about it: you are about to lead hundreds of thousands of troops to the Far East to battle the demon race, yet you come to meet the princess of the demons just before the battle! Does this align with your identity as the commander of the central army? Are you not afraid that your subordinates will find out and stage a mutiny? Are you not afraid that the command center will accuse you of treason?

Zichuan Xiu: "Nonsense! You have been staring at a hole without blinking! Besides, what morals are you talking to me about!"

Another significant reason for the failure of the expeditionary force was the sudden betrayal of a half-orc regiment and a serpentfolk regiment during the fierce battle, which led to a complete collapse of the front lines. This was precisely the outcome that Emperor Dillin feared the most. A large portion of the soldiers in the Far East Army were from the local non-human races, and their loyalty in this war of human suppression against the alien rebellion was utterly unreliable. The subsequent developments unfolded just as he had anticipated. After the expedition failed, the rebellion spread like wildfire, with the half-orc, serpentfolk, and dragonkin garrison soldiers sent to suppress the uprisings rising up to kill the human officers within their ranks. This was exactly the outcome that Emperor Dillin was most concerned about, as a significant portion of the soldiers in the Far East Army were from the local non-human races, and their loyalty in this war of human suppression against the alien rebellion was utterly unreliable. The subsequent developments unfolded just as he had anticipated. After the expedition failed, the rebellion spread like wildfire, with the half-orc, serpentfolk, and dragonkin garrison soldiers sent to suppress the uprisings rising up to kill the human officers within their ranks, leading to entire regiments and divisions defecting and joining the ranks of the rebels

On the first day of August in the year 779 of the Empire, during the night, the Great Eastern Rebellion was in full swing. The casualties of the Zichuan family numbered in the tens of thousands, and nearly thirty million military personnel and civilians in the East were struggling in the midst of the uprising. The family's most steadfast stronghold, Valen Fortress, was on the verge of falling, with one million brutal rebels about to invade the core territory of the family and wreak havoc on the innocent. From the highest ranks of the family leadership down to every soldier and civilian, everyone was so worried that they could not sleep at night. At this moment, one of the three heroes of the Zichuan family, Central Army Commander Sterling, experienced a moment of happiness.

I will be heading to the Far East tomorrow. Sterling stated directly.

The last letter was co-signed by Lin Bing and Luo Bo, stating: "If reinforcements do not arrive within a week, when the time comes, you can help us collect the bodies"

During the reign of the Radiant Empire over the entire continent, the Far East was essentially a desolate land. This region bordered the powerful Demon Kingdom, yet due to the fierce and unruly nature of its inhabitants, the Demon Kingdom contemptuously referred to it as the 'Land of Barbarians' and paid it no heed. However, it would not be entirely accurate to say they ignored it completely; each time the demons invaded the core areas inhabited by humans, their armies had to pass through the Far East, where they would casually burn, kill, and plunder. Therefore, the residents of the Far East were primarily composed of half-orcs, dragonkin, serpentfolk, elves, dwarves, and other exotic races, along with a small number of demons, who held no fondness for the Demon Kingdom.

Several leaders participating in the meeting exchanged knowing smiles: "Here he comes again! The King of Killers, Emperor Lin. It seems he has no other idea besides 'execute them all.'"

Tang Chuan answered her without a moment's hesitation: "That is an obvious matter. Yang Minghua's bribery of Lei Hong could not possibly be concealed from Luo Minghai, his most trusted confidant. Yet, no one informed Ge Yingxing to be on guard against Lei Hong's ambush—clearly, this was the intention of Zichuan Canxing. After Yang Minghua's death, the balance of power was disrupted. With high prestige, popular support, and integrity, Ge Yingxing became a thorn in the side of Zichuan Canxing. Ge Yingxing was utterly loyal to his family, dedicating himself wholeheartedly; it is as if he died at the hands of those he was loyal to. Isn't that a tragedy? After Yang Minghua's death, the balance of power was disrupted. With high prestige, popular support, and integrity, Ge Yingxing became a thorn in the side of Zichuan Canxing. Ge Yingxing was utterly loyal to his family, dedicating himself wholeheartedly; it is as if he died at the hands of those he was loyal to. Isn't that a tragedy? Didn't you all notice anything at that time? Surely not, such an obvious matter..."

Three people express their heartfelt gratitude in myriad ways

***

Request for reinforcements, our troops are unable to sustain.

... ... ''

At the beginning, the campaign proceeded very smoothly, with almost daily reports of achievements sent back to the command center, which greatly relieved Luo Minghai.

He turned to Sterling, who had not spoken since attending the meeting: "What are your thoughts, Commander Sterling?"

What is most unacceptable is that after order was restored, complaints against Emperor Lin for condoning his subordinates and the indiscriminate killing of innocents flooded into the Supervisory Office, causing the newly appointed Inspector General, Emperor Lin, to sign and approve thousands of complaint letters every day, leading to him suffering from several days of finger joint inflammation.

Seeing Sterling's face change dramatically, rendered speechless by shock, Dilling sighed and said: "If you are scared like this, what use is it for me to say anything?"

My background is not noble; I come from a commoner family... However, I believe my salary might be sufficient for two people to live on...

In the vast, deserted hall, Sterling slowly knelt on both knees, raising his arms high: "Oh God, bless me! Such happiness, I fear I do not deserve it

Five minutes later, Roger and Baichuan entered

The news of the tragedy has shocked the imperial capital. Ge Yingxing is the longest-serving minister from the era of Zichuan Yuansheng, renowned for his extraordinary achievements yet remaining humble and disciplined. Despite holding a high position and wielding significant power, he has never acted recklessly. As the commander of the Far East, he has overseen military and political affairs, handling billions in finances daily, yet he remains incorruptible, taking nothing for himself and living a simple life. In contrast to figures like Di Lin and Zichuan Xiu, who would extort hundreds of thousands for a single battle, he is strict with himself but lenient with others, showing compassion to his subordinates. Even more touching is his steadfast leadership of the family’s legitimate line, struggling for six years against Yang Minghua despite his frail health, earning immense respect among both the military and the populace.

The total length of the Zichuan family, Zichuan Canxing, held a continuous three-day state funeral for Ge Yingxing. At the memorial service, it was announced that the remains of Commander Ge Yingxing would enter the "Hall of the Holy Spirit," which is the mausoleum of the Zichuan family’s generations. This is a considerable and exceptional honor; in the family’s history, not to mention a commander, even a president has rarely received such an honor.

He stood up, deeply bowed to the portrait of Ge Yingxing, turned around, and regardless of the unfinished meeting, walked out of the venue on his own accord

Brother, your complexion... is quite frightening!

I had no idea that you, elder brother, cared so much about the state affairs, worrying about the country and its people. How noble... Brother, are you rushing out so urgently because you have an upset stomach and need to go to the restroom

I think it is still acceptable. Besides you and Kadan, aren't there just a few of us? The room is quite large and can easily accommodate us. Please do not delay any longer; a minute has already passed!

Oh, it's nothing. Recently, I heard that the tech stocks of 'that big guy' have plummeted, the inflation index is higher than Luominghai's blood pressure, and the bank interest rates are lower than Shirakawa's high heel nails— the most stable investment is in real estate! I just want to know if you are interested, sir

The rebellion that began in an unnamed village in the Far Eastern Shaluo Province expanded to seven villages on the third day, to over one hundred villages and six towns on the fourth day, and by the sixth day, it had extended to nearly one thousand villages and over one hundred towns

Those carrying the bundles of luggage, stop right there! Don't run!

Shirakawa: "Is there a mistake? Why have we also been placed in the reserves?"

Finally, Zichuan Canxing could no longer bear it and continuously asked Emperor Lin: "Your Excellency, the Inspector General, do you have any opinions? Please share them."

... ...

Indeed, I told you to meet Kadan in fifteen minutes, and now Kadan is right in front of you

As soon as the meeting began, Diling's proposal left all the attendees astonished and speechless

Why are they present?

The population structure of the Far East region is characterized by its original inhabitants, which consist of various non-human races: half-orcs, serpent folk, dwarves, elves, dragons, and others, accounting for over 80% of the total biological population in the Far East. Humans make up less than 20%—however, this minority of less than 20% represents the 'nobility' within the social hierarchy of the Far East. The remaining races often serve as slaves, servants, and laborers for humans, undertaking the most arduous and labor-intensive tasks, cultivating, constructing, and serving for humans

Alright, I will take my leave now. Please take good care of yourself. If you encounter any difficulties, let A-Xiu know. I have told him to take good care of you, so do not be afraid.

Sir, Mingyu mentioned that you have recently taken an interest in real estate? I have an ancestral property in Shaga City in the Far East, and I am considering selling it soon

Zichuan Xiu pondered: "Now... using backdoor connections to gain favors is very costly, and besides, my character and dignity do not allow me to engage in such actions..."

Are you asking us to withdraw all the troops that are fighting against the great rebel Lei Hong to deal with those country bumpkins? Do you want them to execute a complete turnaround in front of the enemy during the standoff just to give Lei Hong a kick in the rear?

Roger: "My lord, considering the many years we have followed you, I beg you..."

Hello, how are you doing?

Loyal Heart and Soul! Sir Li Ke will forever live in our hearts

Dilin respectfully said to Zichuan Canxing: "A week ago, it was a good idea to mobilize the border defense forces or the central army, but now it is too late! It will take at least three weeks to transfer troops from here to the Far Eastern Shaluo Province, and the rebellion must be quelled as soon as possible!"

Bai Chuan shivered; she had always thought that such a gaze could only belong to Di Lin

Ah Ning, I suddenly realize that I have a great talent for business! I am contemplating whether I should resign and venture into business, since this deputy commander is barely getting by anyway—sigh, where are you going? I am discussing serious matters with you!

... ... ''

At the inauguration ceremony of Luo Minghai, the incoming Inspector General, Ding Lin, who was supposed to attend, did not show up; however, at Ding Lin's inauguration ceremony, Luo Minghai was present. The fiery hatred in his eyes made those present feel that it was truly incredible he did not rush forward to bite Ding Lin.

This plan is unfeasible. Zichuan Canxing sighed, "If we pardon the murderer of Sha Ge Yingxing, the public will rise in revolt by tonight, and the Elder Council will immediately impeach and dismiss us by tomorrow morning. What a pity, it was a very good plan"

One week later, the Sharro Province was in full rebellion, with the rebel populace surrounding the provincial capital, Longke City, and the unrest spreading to the neighboring provinces of Minsk, Yaga, and Yun... Urgent requests for reinforcements were coming in like a flurry of snowflakes...

March 27

The bows and arrows, as well as the rolling stones, have been exhausted. Today, we rely on spitting to repel the rebels, and tomorrow we will have to bleed!

At this moment, someone recalled the original prophecy of Inspector General Tirin and couldn't help but exclaim in regret: "If only I had known..."

Zichuan Canxing announced: "Alright, today's coordination meeting is hereby concluded. Next time, the Command Office and the Supervisory Bureau should enhance their communication and exchange of opinions. Everyone should refrain from hastily resorting to mutual impeachment, as it harms the camaraderie among colleagues..."

Ah, esteemed sir, what a coincidence! You have indeed asked the right person! As you can see, I happen to have a property available, measuring 208 square meters, with a three-story building, located in the central urban area of Longke, the capital of Shaluo Province. It boasts convenient transportation, a comfortable environment, and promising development prospects, ensuring it will appreciate in value! Here, take a look at the map and photos; I have the property deed.

Everyone left the conference hall, leaving only Dilling standing there in a daze. Sterling called out to him several times, but he remained sullen and did not respond, so Sterling had no choice but to leave on his own.

Zichuan Ning went out and returned with a stack of newspapers, unfolding them one by one, each headline more eye-catching than the last

In the evening, Zichuan Xiu and Sterling were dining at a restaurant

Bai Chuan was left speechless, deeply realizing a truth: those involved are often confused, while bystanders see clearly

In summary, they believe that this is a notice filled with errors and completely lacking merit. The evidence is overwhelming, fully exposing the wrongdoings of the drafter, Di Lin, who did not study diligently in elementary school and frequently skipped classes. This leads to the further inference that if Di Lin had received serious moral and ideological education in his childhood, he would not have become such a cold-blooded and ruthless person. Ultimately, the conclusion is that moral and ideological education must start from a young age.

Future generations often wonder how Lei Hong, who once held the position of deputy leader of the family, could be so arrogant as to believe that with the support of a few half-orcs and serpent tribes, he could completely annihilate the Zichuan family. He should have understood just how powerful the family truly is

The former Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guard, Sterling, is acting as the Commander of the Central Army, responsible for the reorganization and restructuring of the Central Army.

Alright, the night is already quite deep, so you should rest early—let's continue to be friends from now on. Haha, you don't need to worry about me. Haha, I'm not sad at all. Haha

Ming Yu: "Bah! I originally thought that Lord Sterling, being such an exceptional person, would possess extraordinary skills. This is so disappointing; it utterly insults the reputation of our charming community!"

On April 11, 779 of the Imperial Calendar, just as a great battle was about to erupt between the Orthodox Zichuan Army and the rebel forces in the Far East, a small village in the Shaluo Province of the Far East—so insignificant that it was not even marked on the map—declared its independence, breaking away from the rule of the Zichuan family, and established the "United Racial Freedom Army" with fewer than one hundred members to arm and defend their homeland

Ming Yu appeared very insulted: "Sir, how can you doubt my character and credit? Look, the property deed was issued by the government of Longke City in Shaluo Province, and it bears the official seal—since you do not trust me, I might as well go talk to Roger instead"

Shirakawa also attended the funeral with Zikawa Hideo. Although she had only met Ge Yingxing once, recalling his life-saving grace, she remembered his caring gaze, frail body, and warm hands. She had already soaked several handkerchiefs with her tears.

The fact is that Lei Hong, for the sake of his life, indeed fulfilled his obligations under the agreement very well: he dispatched troops to cut off the rear route of the Far East Army, severed their supply lines, and blocked their communication channels. This is the reason why the Far East Army seemingly vanished without a trace

The former Director of the Administrative Office, Vice Commander Ge Shan, had originally been dismissed for speaking on behalf of the traitors. However, due to the overwhelming amount of civil administration work that piled up after the suppression of the rebellion and the lack of efficient handling, upon the request of Luo Minghai, Zichuan Canxing agreed to allow Ge Shan to "make contributions while bearing the blame" and temporarily oversee the daily administrative affairs.

Indeed, this esteemed person looks very familiar. Have we met somewhere before? Allow me to introduce myself; I am Bai Pi, the cousin of Bai Chuan

The consequence brought about by this command is: one afternoon, at the home of Zichuan Ning

Oh, Shirakawa Hatamoto, please feel free to take care of your own matters. Mingyu Hatamoto, do you not hope to take on the heavy responsibility of a suicide squad in the Far East battlefield in the future?

On that afternoon, the order of the capital city had basically settled down

On the day of receiving the news of Ge Yingxing's death, the command center issued a decree for punitive action, requiring the other two deputy commanders of the Far East Army, Lin Bing and Luo Bo, to immediately launch an expedition against the traitor Lei Hong

Zichuan Xiu's expression changed dramatically, turning from blue to white, and then from white to black

A moment of silence ensued, and Sterling cleared his throat softly with a cough

... ...

Dilin gently replied: "Glock Province"

Roger was pursued and attacked by loan sharks because he lost money in gambling

"Little Rebellion?" Di Lin murmured to himself, laughing wildly in the empty conference hall, "Hahaha, Little Rebellion! This is a storm capable of destroying the very foundation of the entire family! You are doomed, fools!"

Oh, Bai Chuan is bored because he has too much free time, Ming Yu wants to learn some techniques for flirting, Roger is curious to see if there are any exciting scenes, and my sister... Ah Ning, what are you doing here

The rebellion suppression force of 30,000 troops led by Li Kehong was unexpectedly annihilated, which truly took the command center by surprise. This indicates that the rebellious populace is not the disorganized rabble originally thought, but rather a terrifying armed force with systematic organization. It also demonstrates that their leader possesses considerable military talent—setting a trap by exploiting Li Ke's arrogance, initially luring the punitive forces deeper with a minor defeat, and then launching a full ambush to encircle them completely. Such sophisticated military tactics, surprisingly originating from what humanity has long considered to be the brutish and mindless half-orc subordinates, prompts thoughtful reflection among the wise: if half-orcs possess cunning intelligence akin to that of humans, combined with their innate immense strength, the so-called leaders of all beings, humans, may face a precarious future.

Those arrogant half-orcs, serpent folk, and demon tribes suddenly woke up to find that the long-standing rule over them was nothing more than a piece of paper thick. They certainly felt that, compared to enduring the whip of authority or toiling under the sun, it was far more in line with their desires to raise their claws and tear apart their human masters

The military police stationed at the command post have been deployed today

Di Lin Su Rong replied: "In response to your Excellency, I have no objections and am willing to listen to the esteemed opinions of all the commanders." This was almost more painful than killing the commanders, as Luo Minghai's face turned bright red.

Only the Inspector General, Dilling, remained indifferent, muttering to himself: "Leihong is not foolish enough yet."

After quelling the rebellion, Chief Commander Zichuan Canxing began to reward merits and issued a series of dizzying personnel orders: former Chief of Staff Luo Minghai was appointed as the President of the Family! Upon hearing this order, Zichuan Xiu secretly said to Zichuan Ning, "It would be better to simply invite a statue of Buddha to sit in the presidential seat, since everyone is equally silent; compared to Luo Minghai's sour face, the smiling face of the Buddha statue is much more pleasant to look at."

... ...

Roger: "Indeed, we are not speaking on behalf of the rebels"

With a loud bang, the door slammed shut, and Zichuan Xiu was kicked out of the reception room by a "fellow comrade".

Until the sun set in the west, a bright glint of sabers and spearheads appeared on the horizon, accompanied by a thunderous roar. They were also armored cavalry, but their banners and colors were different: the rebel forces of Lei Hong had arrived

After 2 o'clock, Sterling's guards began to patrol, suppressing a group of ruffians who, having just recovered from their fright, sought to take advantage of the chaos to rob and plunder.

Ming Yu: "Yes, my lord, at worst we can pool our money to send you to 'exercise'!"

... ...

What did you have Kadan say to you again? My dear Sterling, go ahead and kill, kill with all your might, kill well, kill wonderfully, and I will marry you when you return

Who said that! I have always been concerned about national affairs, diligently reading "Hua | Hua | Gong | Zi", "Cangchun Pavilion", and "Longhu Leopard" every day, and I also watch "Happy Time" for twenty minutes daily—though why are you asking me this?

Kadan—oh, no, I should address you as Your Highness Kadan. How have you been recently

Di Lin had no other choice. He ruled the army with high-pressure and severe measures; if he did not frequently provide his subordinates with opportunities for venting and plundering wealth, his troops would have revolted long ago. His army has always been the most morale-boosting, combat-effective, and loyal (referring to loyalty to Di Lin personally, not to the family) invincible force among the entire Zichuan family military. The only drawback is that the cost of creating such an army is exceedingly high... so high that the family cannot bear it.

It is unclear when it began, but the "Rescue Army" of the Zichuan family suddenly transformed into a suppressive force. Various ethnic groups certainly would not accept this passively, but after the well-organized, well-armed, and well-trained Zichuan army patiently "enlightened" them a few times with blood and fire, they sincerely "admitted their mistakes," found their way back, and returned to the "warm embrace" of the Zichuan family's "benevolent father"

Fort Valen is the most formidable barrier between the Far East and the Imperial Capital. Once Valen falls, millions of rebel forces will surge into the unprepared core area of human habitation. Such a situation is absolutely unacceptable to the family

In the evening, Sterling visited, and Zichuan Xiu received him with calm composure

"Special Report: The Serpent Tribe Garrison in Minsk Province has Mutinied! The Provincial Capital of Minsk has Fallen"

"The rebels will soon be completely suppressed!" - Li Ke stated during an interview with our reporter

***

By the way, A Xiu, why did your subordinates suddenly express that they were too tired and requested to be transferred to the reserve? I felt it was such a pity when I issued the personnel order

You have been silent for a while; are you feeling very tired? Have I taken up too much of your time?

Roger, Mingyu, Baichuan! You three scoundrels, come out here! Dare to play tricks on me! Tonight, I will make you weep without tears!

That is truly a pity; they are all talented individuals! Especially that young girl Bai Chuan, who is very courageous. I originally intended to have her serve as a red-clad flag bearer in the newly formed Central Army. However, since they have requested it themselves... I have no choice in the matter.

At this moment, the Far East Army was engaged in fierce combat with the rebels, with both sides locked in a stalemate. Suddenly, an order was issued to withdraw the troops, which was tantamount to exposing one's rear and inviting the enemy to strike.

The loud commotion startled Zichuan Ning, prompting her to come out. As she emerged, she looked at the now distant figures of the cavalry and anxiously asked Zichuan Xiu, "Brother, what has happened?" Upon lowering her gaze, she noticed the red feathered arrow on the doorpost, and her face immediately turned pale: "A summons?"

Future generations do not understand why a renowned general like Di Lin would so indulgently allow his subordinates to plunder and kill civilians. There are many explanations, but the one provided by the young historian Tang Chuan is the most convincing:

Indeed, Kadan is the same. Shh, don't make noise, let's see what they are saying

My lord, you have misunderstood. In fact, I have suddenly developed a severe headache. Please allow me to take my leave in an unceremonious manner

The strange behavior of Zichuan Xiu at the memorial service has always been a mystery to Baichuan: How can it be said that Ge Yingxing, who devoted himself to the family, was wronged when he died fighting valiantly after being ambushed by traitors?

Adult, do not be too sad; crying a little might make you feel better

Zichuan Xiu: "Hey! Mingyu, have you had enough? It's my turn now!"

Five divisions of troops set out to quell the rebellion, displaying a formidable military presence

The former Deputy Director of the Administrative Office, Vice Commander Zichuan Xiu, displayed a lack of clarity in his stance and a deficiency in insight. He became arrogant and conceited, relying on his minor contributions during the suppression of the rebellion, even going so far as to express sympathy for the insurgents—what achievements do you really have? Was it not merely accompanying those deadbeats from the Central Army in drinking and revelry? Did you truly believe that Lei Xun was killed solely by your hand? You even provoked the ire of the Chief Commander, Lord Zichuan Canxing, which is indeed a grave offense! However, due to the pleas from Inspector General Di Lin and Acting Central Army Commander Sterling, the magnanimous Chief Commander decided not to pursue the matter further, merely removing Zichuan Xiu from his current position and assigning him to the reserves—everyone knows that a reserve commander is inferior to a dog in active service.

The once-dispersed rebel populace has regrouped and launched a counterattack— they scatter quickly, but they also gather just as swiftly

Zichuan Ning: "Elder brother, you were spying on Brother Sterling and Sister Kadan—it's not good to do such things! It's unethical!"

The Battle of Chishuitan resulted in the Far East Army suffering losses of 235,000 troops, with three red flag officers, fifteen flag officers, and forty-six deputy flag officers killed in action. The overall commander, Deputy Commander Luobo, was severely injured. Since the establishment of the Far East Army, ... even when facing the elite forces of the demon race, there has never been such a significant defeat ...

When the remains of Brother Ge Xing were transported back to the capital, mourners lined the long streets in a dense, dark crowd that seemed endless. The tears of millions of followers soaked the pristine white marble steps, and the citizens of the capital raised their voices in anger: "Execute the traitor Lei Hong with a thousand cuts!"

Zichuan Xiuxin felt a secret joy in her heart; houses in this area usually sell for over 2 million. However, she still put on a troubled expression: "I see, Mingyu... you know your adult is also a poor official, with no savings, and cannot come up with that much at once... How about 15,000?"

This is a placeholder text.

Sterling smiled: "My blood pressure is not high, you can talk to me!"

Almost everyone was outraged by Di Lin's proposal. Fang Jing stood up and shouted angrily, "Are we to let the murderer of Lord Ge Yingxing go unpunished!"

General Fang Jing asked Emperor Lin: "How many troops are needed to execute several thousand rioters?"

They hit it off immediately and promptly signed the infamous "Minsk Alliance Agreement" in the capital of Minsk Province, discussing that after overthrowing the rule of the Zichuan family, the regions in the Far East east of the Valen Fortress would be granted freedom and independence to various ethnic groups, while the elite parts of the original family west of the Valen Fortress would fall under the rule of Lei Hong

What is your opinion, big brother

The entire Shaluo Province has fallen, and there are no living humans left—an interview with the surviving young warrior Hu Hai

Indeed, oh dear, how can you kick a lady's bottom!

However, some believe that at that time, Lei Hong could not have imagined overthrowing his family's two-hundred-year rule on the mainland; his sole purpose was to save his own life. The condition he proposed was merely to make the agreement appear fairer, so that the other party would not doubt his sincerity: how could anyone come to help us for no reason?

... ...

"The Lament of the Bloodied Song! A Chronicle of the Bloodshed of the Far East Rebellion Army"

A Ning, haven't I often taught you? You are to succeed the position of the director, so you must be broad-minded! It's truly ridiculous that you remember such trivial matters so clearly! I won't mention anything else, but the day after tomorrow, I will visit the second-hand market and buy you a doll! Once I finalize this real estate transaction...

Urgent Request! A large group of rebels has emerged in the Minsk Province, and seven areas including the North Sea and Sanglong have already fallen!

However, by June of the year 779, after the army entered the center of the rebellion in Yun Province, there was no further news reported. The three hundred thousand troops seemed to have vanished into thin air overnight! The command center in the imperial capital and the general's office fell into a state of hysteria

In the early days of the Zichuan family, crises were rampant. The founder, Zichuan Yun, understood that the only way to maintain a strong power was to expand the territory as much as possible. Therefore, he actively and frequently launched wars for external territory. However, on the path of westward expansion, he encountered the formidable Liufeng family, leading to fierce battles that lasted for decades, resulting in hundreds of thousands of casualties among the soldiers. The Zichuan family was unable to seize even an inch of land.

"Why not let her hold onto your thigh and cry hard: 'No, no.' Thus, you softened your heart, and in the Far East, you saw the demon clan unable to muster strength, allowing them to butcher you like a pig!"

Forget it, don't change here, it's reeking. So you came to find me tonight because... actually, Zichuan Xiu had already figured it out in her heart

The appointment, considering the enmity between Di Lin and Luo Minghai, leaves everyone perplexed about the true intentions of Zichuan Canxing: Is he deliberately exploiting the hatred between his subordinates to mutually restrain and control them, or is it something else? However, judging by his seemingly muddled demeanor, he does not appear to be a person with such political acumen, or could it simply be an unintentional act?

One week after the rebellion began and with its momentum spreading like wildfire, the imperial capital finally recognized the urgency of the situation. Zichuan Canxing urgently convened a meeting of the Command Center to discuss countermeasures. Although Inspector General Di Lin was not a member of the Command Center, he had previously made proposals regarding Far Eastern affairs and had spent time in the region, making him relatively familiar with the circumstances there. Despite Luominghai's objections, Zichuan Canxing invited Di Lin to join the discussion on countermeasures.

Once Zichuan Ning left, Sterling turned to Roger and asked with concern, "Roger, I heard that you've been feeling unwell in your stomach lately, is that right? You should take some rest soon"

Only the Inspector General, Emperor Lin, in the entire capital, keenly foresaw the terrifying consequences of this rebellion. On that day, he proposed to mobilize 300,000 troops from the Central Army or the Border Defense Forces to the Far East, using an overwhelming military advantage akin to Mount Tai pressing down, to ensure the defeat of the Lei Hong rebel forces within a week; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable

Thus, he agreed to their offered low price after only cutting it in half, making the payment on the spot

Indeed, they are quite rare—having played mahjong with me for so long, losing so much, yet they still cannot see that I am cheating. Where can I find such easy targets? Once they leave, I will be utterly lonely—I also feel embarrassed to win An Ning's money

This is a placeholder text.

In fact, on the very day when the order for the expedition had not yet been issued and the Goeing Star had just breathed its last, the furious Deputy Commander Lin Bing did not wait for the approval of the Far East Army Chief of Staff, Luo Bo, and had already dispatched troops to pursue and eliminate Lei Hong's forces

Di Lin said in a deep voice: "In addition to this, there are other options. We can negotiate with Lei Hong, agreeing to his terms. As long as he is willing to send troops to quell the rebellious populace, we will promise to pardon his crimes! He is currently only seeking to save his life, and he will definitely agree!"

Once they all left, Zichuan Xiu said indignantly: "I detest these people the most; they just love to hinder others' good deeds, how despicable! Alright, Sterling, now that it's just us, feel free to speak your mind!"

The response from the Command was indeed as Emperor Lin had anticipated, ordering the main forces of the Far East Army, led by Deputy Commander Lin Bing and Luo Bo in the Glock Province, to cease hostilities with Lei Hong and redirect all efforts to address the civil unrest

Ah, esteemed sir, you have mistaken me for someone else—I am not Roger; I am Roger's twin brother, Luokuang

... ... ''

The Supervisory Office is responsible for overseeing the administration of the Command Office, and the traditional relationship between the two has always been: discussions on Monday, arguments on Tuesday, insults on Wednesday, throwing watermelon rinds at each other on Thursday, and a ceasefire on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Now, everyone anticipates an escalation into continuous warfare throughout the week, and the staff of both the Command Office and the Supervisory Office are already prepared for gastric ulcers, with many having preemptively purchased life insurance.

Oh, my lord, Mingyu was caught by the "Anti-Pornography and Illegal Activities" office of the Ministry of Justice because he went to visit the Huichun Building, and he is to be fined

This is a placeholder text.

Elder brother, please do not be so anxious! These are all major blunders made by my uncles; let them fix it themselves

Zichuan Ning approached to examine the property deed.

On a summer evening, as the sun sets in the west, Zichuan Xiu comfortably lies on the hammock beneath the large tree in front of his house, sipping chilled fine wine and watching the fiery clouds on the horizon, slowly savoring this rare leisurely state of mind, feeling quite pleased. Suddenly, he lifts his head; in the distance, dust billows, accompanied by the sound of hurried hoofbeats. Through the dust, the silhouette of a rider becomes clear: a sweaty light cavalryman, holding the reins in his left hand and raising a small red flag in his right hand. A red-feathered arrow accurately strikes the gatepost of the Zichuan Ning family, and he shouts, "Alarm!"

Di Lin, however, remained silent, a faint cold smile playing at the corners of his mouth, his silence causing great discomfort among the people at the command center

Dilin calmly and composedly said, "It's just a promise; it doesn't necessarily have to be fulfilled."

Zichuan Xiu: "You really put me in a difficult position! This is not a matter of money; even if you were to present me with a thick stack of cash..."

Oh, I don't have any new romance novels to read tonight, so I'll make do and see if there are any confession scenes... Oh dear, Brother Sterling, how can you twist my ear like that! It hurts so much! Alright, can I go out now?

I am indifferent; being in the reserves is not bad at all, it is quite leisurely

Help!

The President, Ling Minghai, took the proposal from Diling, glanced at it without reading, and said, "I just happen to have an upset stomach." In front of everyone at the command center, he walked into the restroom. Fifteen minutes later, he emerged empty-handed, the proposal having been "used" and flushed down the toilet.

Zichuan Xiuyi reviewed their property documentation, and everything was in order. He was puzzled: "Why is it that all of you want to sell real estate? Just now, Mingyu was the same..."

By the morning of the next day, notices from the Imperial Forest began to appear on the streets and alleys of the capital city

The rebellion grew larger like a rolling snowball, ultimately sweeping through twenty-one of the twenty-three provinces in the Far East region

Zichuan Xiu: "Up! Up! Press down on her shoulder with one hand, slowly and forcefully! Conquer her and intoxicate her with a commanding gaze and the powerful arms of a man! Firmly grasp her hand, unbuttoning her buttons one by one..."

***

Sterling retracted his fist, watching Roger stumble out, and smiled: "Resting early is good for your health! Shirakawa, you..."

Then, Roger is because ... ...

Sir, you need not say more. I suddenly recall a matter of great importance that requires my immediate attention. Please allow me to take my leave first

The command center was not alarmed upon hearing the news: compared to the recent Yang Minghua coup in the capital, the mobilization of 200,000 troops by the Liufeng Army six years ago at the gates of the capital, and the complete rebellion of the border defense forces fifty years ago, this was merely a local uprising in the border region. It posed no threat to the overall family situation and did not warrant excessive concern. It could simply be entrusted to the two deputy commanders of the Far East, Lin Bing and Luo Bo, to handle. Their strength is absolutely superior to that of the rebels; they may take a little longer to resolve the situation, but they will certainly emerge victorious in the end. This was merely a local uprising in the border region, posing no threat to the overall family situation and did not warrant excessive concern. It could simply be entrusted to the two deputy commanders of the Far East, Lin Bing and Luo Bo, to handle. Their strength is absolutely superior to that of the rebels; they may take a little longer to resolve the situation, but they will certainly emerge victorious in the end.

The 300,000-strong Zichuan family army, under the banner of "The demon clan is brutal, oppressing all races! Unite to resist the demon clan! Save the Far East, protect all races!", marched grandly into the Far East. Various races erupted in cheers, rising to support this human "rescue army", forming various volunteer units and militias to fight alongside the Zichuan family army, together resisting the invasion of the demon clan

"Mr. Xiuchuan, I heard that you haven't been reading the newspaper much lately, have you?" asked Mingyu

Ming Yu: "Sir, you have lost! I told you earlier that there would be no intense scenes today, but you didn't believe me! Hand over the money!"

Thus, Zichuan Xiu had no choice but to bid a tearful farewell to the luxuriously decorated office, the comfortable and elegant furniture, and the beautiful female secretary dressed in a miniskirt. He was deeply saddened: the question of whether the female secretary was a virgin or not would remain an eternal mystery.

Adult, what is our relationship? Discussing money? That is quite disrespectful! However, since you brought it up, let’s settle for twenty thousand

For a period of time, the Far East Army held the advantage and initiative on the battlefield. The half-orcs, dragon kin, demon kin, and serpent kin were thrown into disarray by the overwhelming charge of the armored cavalry, scattering in all directions. Everyone believed that victory was within easy reach

It was not until this moment that people understood what had happened: the traitor Lei Hong had contacted the allied forces of the foreign tribes and actively promised to assist them in cutting off the rear supply lines and provisions of the Far East Army; from the perspective of the allied forces of the ethnic groups, this was indeed a matter that brought numerous benefits without any harm.

It has been proven that administrative officials such as Luo Minghai and Ge Shan possess outstanding talents. Following the great disaster, they organized a series of reconstruction efforts, including extinguishing fires, providing relief to the bereaved, clearing the streets, rebuilding houses, and arranging for aid, all of which were carried out quite swiftly and effectively. Coupled with Sterling's significant contributions to the security environment of the capital, within less than three days, the capital emerged from the disaster, order was restored, and people began to heal their wounds and resume normal life

It is worse than you can imagine, Valen is on the verge of falling, and the family reserves have not yet been fully assembled

The three subordinates immediately placed all their long-saved savings, which they had accumulated through frugality over the years, on the table

The meeting did not yield any results and ended hastily.

At this time, Zichuan Canxing convened the second coordination meeting between the Command Office and the Supervisory Bureau to discuss how to respond to the current situation

Zichuan Xiu suddenly felt very sorry for her; it was he who had caused her to enter the reserve forces, and he had even deceived her out of her hard-earned savings to "pull strings"...! ... The little remaining conscience he had actually felt a bit of pain, which was a rare occurrence in recent years

***

Where have you all gone

She covered her face with a handkerchief and cried

Twenty years later, Tang Chuan, the part-time Deputy Inspector General of the family and a full-time historian, published his monumental work "An Analysis of the Causes of the Great Rebellion in the Far East in 779—A Reflection on the Dialectical Relationship Between Historical Necessity and Historical Contingency from Economic, Political, Cultural, Historical, and Geographical Perspectives"

This is a placeholder text.

Even if Shirakawa is willing to give me a kiss, as long as he doesn't slap me in the face...

"Where did such a large military force come from?" Minghui asked. "Is it to be drawn from the Central Army or the Black Flag Army? I must state first that the border defense forces cannot be moved. Recently, the Liu Fengshuang activities have been quite rampant, frequently provoking us. I do not know what this old hag is plotting."

Zichuan Xiu, Zichuan Ning, and others gazed intently at him, then at her. They were eating sunflower seeds and whispering softly: "Look, the adult is blushing!"

According to historical records, although the night of bloodshed in the imperial capital was extremely tragic, it indeed lasted only one night

However, there are also benefits; his previously unsightly handwriting, which had been hidden since childhood, surprisingly became comparable to that of a calligrapher within a week, although it was limited to just a few characters: "查", "无", "此", "事", "帝", "林"

Zichuan Xiu remained silent

In the future, the theme of this newspaper will be the pure topic of "Boys Falling in Love with Girls". Authors are welcome to submit their contributions enthusiastically

The composed Luo Bo covered her mouth with one hand and began to arrange the withdrawal of military matters

Special News: The Unforgivable Shame! The Garrison of the Half-Orc Division Stationed in Yun Province Has Mutinied

I mean to say that your taste is so poor, you are even wearing your socks inside out

... ... ''

This battle may be very dangerous, and I might not return

Dilin directly advised the Chief, Zichuan Canxing, and the response from Zichuan Canxing was: "The role of the Supervisory Office is to oversee whether officials within the family engage in illegal activities, favoritism, or dereliction of duty. Matters concerning the Far East fall within the administrative authority of the Command Office and are beyond your official jurisdiction. It would be best for you not to interfere further."

Faced with Lin Bing's furious army of revenge, he did not dare to resist at all, retreating with his troops back to his own defensive area, Glock Province, where he ordered the local garrison to rebel

Luo Bo personally killed more than ten fleeing soldiers with a knife, while Lin Bing rushed to the front lines to encourage the soldiers to continue fighting, but the defeat was already inevitable, and nothing could be done to change the situation

Oh, Roger's hemorrhoids have flared up, Mingyu is going through menopause, and Baichuan is requesting a menstrual leave

A Xiu

Political Reasons: The death of the Supreme Commander of the Far East, Ge Yinxing, undoubtedly served as a significant catalyst for the Far East rebellion. This was not only because Ge Yinxing was the overall commander of the Far East forces, and after his death, there was no longer a general with the strength and prestige to command loyalty, leading to unrest among the populace. More importantly, his death triggered a civil war within the Zichuan family of the Far East. The garrison troops of the Zichuan family, originally stationed in various locations, were hastily reassigned—either to join the rebel forces or to suppress the rebellion—resulting in a power vacuum in local governance.

As the two spoke simultaneously, they both laughed together with a "heh heh"—that smile was indescribably mischievous

Captain Gopra of the Imperial Guard took the Imperial Guard of Dilling to the streets and saw that there were still Far Eastern soldiers lingering on the streets "playing" for various reasons: some had not seen the notice, some had misread the time, some had misunderstood the notice, and some were so engrossed in their "play" that they forgot to return—immediately, they were hanged.

This mystery had troubled her for a long time, until many years later when she met Tang Chuan, a young historian from the Zichuan family, to whom she raised this question

While official documents were being circulated among the Inspection Bureau, the Command Office, and the General Office in the capital, unnoticed changes occurred in the Far East situation, which were so trivial that even the "Capital Daily" did not publish this news

I know that you are a princess, born of noble lineage, and would not look favorably upon someone like me, a poor soldier with nothing but a broken sword. I came here tonight just to see you one last time and to speak with you.

Today, a notification was received from the Command Office: "In order to stabilize public sentiment and morale, from now on, your reports are not permitted to cover news regarding the military situation in the Far East"

This is the only directive from the Zichuan Canxing personnel command that everyone agrees upon. Sterling is indeed the consensus choice, and people expect that he will soon remove the word "acting" from his title.

Dilin

My opinion could definitely scare that old fellow Luo Minghai into a cerebral hemorrhage

The Commander of the Pacification Army, Li Ke, of the Far East Army, is appointed!

Well, it looks pretty good, but I wonder what the price is? I don't have a lot of money...

Although the soldiers were already exhausted and starving, the thought of being able to return home after this battle revitalized them, and they fought with remarkable courage and vigor

On March 28, 779 of the Imperial Calendar, Commander Ge Yingxing was ambushed during his return journey from the imperial capital to the Far East, at Huangshi Mountain, over three hundred miles from Valen Fortress. The ambush was orchestrated by Lei Hong, the former deputy commander of the Far East Army, who had been bribed by Yang Minghua, leading thirty thousand elite troops. After a fierce battle, all six thousand members of Ge Yingxing's guard were killed. Severely injured, Ge Yingxing was protected by hundreds of guards who fought valiantly to break through the encirclement. After enduring numerous dangers along the way, he finally returned to Valen Fortress, but due to his grave injuries, he soon succumbed.

Sir, you have truly worked hard

"Yes, my lord! In light of the spreading rebellion in the Shaluo Province of the Far East, it is necessary to swiftly extinguish it with a decisive and overwhelming strike! Therefore, I propose that all the rioting mobs involved in the rebellion be executed and their bodies left exposed in the wilderness, to shock any would-be wrongdoers and serve as a warning!"

While reading the eulogy, he could only manage to read the opening few sentences before he was overcome with emotion, repeatedly crying out "The spirits return, oh, return..." Eventually, he fainted from crying on the ground. This greatly endeared the rarely seen Chancellor to the people of the capital.

At that moment, she suddenly noticed something very strange: beside her, Zi Chuan Xiu had not shed a single tear, his face pale and his gaze revealing a chillingly deep hatred that sent shivers down one's spine

He doubted his ears and turned around in ecstasy: "Kadan, you..."

Historians are often part-time grammarians, and they all believe that this notice has significant flaws. First, the object of the command is unclear; who is the "little brat"? How can someone "roll away"? Secondly, the term "noon" is also vague; what exactly does "noon" refer to? Is it today’s "noon," or some "noon" in the future, perhaps in the Year of the Ox or the Year of the Horse? Furthermore, what does it mean to "play"?

Ming Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally, with great reluctance, said: "Who told me I have been short on money lately? Alas, my dear, let us proceed with the transaction immediately! Please keep the property deed safe, and the money..."

Kissing Death: Hu Hai Discusses the Adventure Process

By July 5, people finally learned of the movements of the main forces of the Far East Army: from 300,000, fewer than 50,000 remained, having abandoned all their weapons and heavy armor, and they fled back to the Valen Fortress in a state of disarray. Behind them were the united forces of various races, pursuing them like wolves and tigers, along with the rebel army of 15 divisions led by Lei Hong.

The rebels attacked Valen, their forces are substantial

The rider leaped past him without pausing, leaving only a trace of yellow horse sweat on the imprint of the hooves. Zichuan Xiu slowly rose, watching the rider's figure gradually diminish, his expression serious

Chief of Staff Luo provided cover while Deputy Commander Lin charged forward

A Xiu, regarding the matter you have prepared, I will mention it to the Chief when he is in a good mood in a couple of days

Di Lin ignored Luo Minghai's provocation and responded to Fang Jing: "It is estimated that we will need to mobilize an army of 200,000 to 300,000!"

Zichuan Ning entered: "Elder brother, what are you foolishly laughing at while looking at that pile of paper?"

Special Crisis! Yuncheng Shajia City is Surrounded by Rebel Forces

Medicinal materials are in short supply, and the wounded soldiers cannot be treated

Shirakawa: "Pah! You speak as if you have ever possessed 'personality and dignity'!"

Adult, the traitor Lei Hong will definitely meet a bad end. You are hurting your own body like this

Indeed, Kadan is correct, but I feel that this room seems a bit narrow and cannot accommodate so many people

... ... ''

Lei Hong originally planned to eliminate Ge Yingxing and his entire guard to ensure that he could safely accept the appointment of "New Commander" His Excellency Yang Minghua and take command of the Far East Army

The proposal for a compromise by Sterling received the support of the majority

On July 30, 1979, the Command issued an order for the acting commander of the Central Army, Sterling, to immediately lead the newly reorganized Central Army of 150,000 troops to reinforce Fort Valen. Commander Fang Jing would follow with the Black Flag Army, as their base is relatively far from Valen. Additionally, the family ordered the declaration of a Level 2 emergency status, requiring all reserve officers to return to active duty immediately

Her idea is to restrain the border defense forces, preventing you from managing the Far East "Dilin replied coldly, secretly cursing: "How can you not see this! Truly foolish!

Kadan has already gotten up and left, leaving behind a nearly inaudible remark: "Actually, I am not in a hurry to go back."

I would like to meet Kadan

Oh, what you said makes sense. Do you have anything good to recommend

"Director of the Imperial Inspection, could you please repeat what you just said?" Zichuan Canxing found it hard to believe his own ears

... ... ''

Roger: "No, I have always been in good health, my stomach never hurts... Oh, it hurts so much! Alright, I am going to rest, please stop calling!"

Also, when you see Kadan, what will you say to her? Oh, "Kadan, hello, tomorrow I will go and kill your uncles and aunts. Give me some encouragement in love, how about a kiss!"

He originally speculated that Yang Minghua's rebellion would surely succeed; however, the outcome was contrary to his expectations. Not only did Ge Yinxing fail to silence him, but Yang Minghua also met his demise in the imperial capital. Now, in this vast world, there was no place where he could hide even a single left hand.

The cries inside and outside the venue were deafening

After the meeting, Sterling approached Dilling: "Brother, I sense you have something to say, don't you?"

"Oh, oh, don't go, don't go! Alright, I'll pay you." Zichuan Xiu pulled out a stack of foul-smelling banknotes from a pair of shoes under the bed and counted them out to Ming Yu...

As the people of the capital celebrated the end of the disaster, on April 1, 779 of the Imperial Calendar, a piece of news that sounded very much like an April Fool's joke struck like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone: "The Commander of the Far East, Ge Yingxing, has died in battle."

... ... ''

Di Lin spoke slowly and deliberately: "There is no need to pay attention to the rebel forces of Lei Hong and the civil unrest. The Far East Army will soon conduct a complete withdrawal, bringing all border defense troops and the garrison forces dealing with the demon race back to Valen Fortress, abandoning all provinces in the Far East—this might still salvage something."

Sterling turned his head helplessly and said, "A Xiu, didn't you say you would give me fifteen minutes?"

Fortunately, under the cunning plan devised by Robbo, what was originally a flawed maneuver in front of the enemy was arranged to resemble a perfectly laid trap, causing Lei Hong to hesitate in launching a reckless pursuit. After suffering minimal losses, the Far East Army successfully withdrew from the Glock Province and began to mobilize an army of 300,000 human troops to suppress the rebellious populace

Remember, that was seven years ago! However, you have never sent it! And the computer, game console, and cosmetics you promised to give me... Also, the many debts you owe me! And you haven't paid for rent and meals for such a long time, and...

In light of this, the provincial governor Lin Wei urgently dispatched an expeditionary force to suppress the rebellion. However, the outcome was that three thousand human troops fled in defeat when faced with a coalition army of various races that was ten times their number

Breaking News! The mob has breached Longke City! Governor Lin Wei of Shaluo Province has died in the line of duty! Five thousand families' descendants have perished in the service of their country!

Oh, Anning, do you still remember that Big Brother once said he would give you a big doll

Only the ecstatic Sterling and the shy Cardan failed to notice that the previously intact window had, at some unknown time, developed several "small holes"...

"If troops are not drawn from here, then where will the forces come from?"

In that year, the demon clan experienced internal power struggles, leaving them with no time to mobilize their armies to address the minor disturbances in the 'barbarian regions.' They merely dispatched a few punitive teams as a symbolic gesture, which ultimately provided the Zichuan family with precious breathing space, allowing them to establish a foothold in the Far East. After more than two hundred years of relentless efforts by successive leaders to expand their territory, the land in the Far East now accounts for over one-quarter of the family's entire domain

The Far East rebellion is spreading, and the city of Longke is in imminent danger

Stirling rose sadly, intending to leave, when a soft murmur came from behind: "Sir Stirling, the battlefield is perilous; please take utmost care of yourself."

Farewell, esteemed guest

Dylan faced Sterling: "Well then, listen carefully, my opinion is..."

In the spacious reception room, Sterling and Cardan faced each other, sitting upright.

So, so... I would like to see you tonight. So, that is to say, the matter is that, I think this is it, so... after such a long time, you might understand what I mean...

I very much ... ... I very much ... ... you, Kadan, from the first time we met, I have very much ... ... you

Tomorrow I will be heading to the Far East to engage in battle. However, it is not against your country, but rather to quell a rebellion within my own family

At this moment, Zichuan Ning appeared at the door, and Zichuan Xiu immediately said: "I would never do such a thing! How can one take advantage of others and bully women? I despise such people the most! Alright, I will use your money to help you with some activities! However, I cannot guarantee the outcome, as I have recently heard that there are efforts being made towards integrity..."

Ming Yu's straightforwardness made Zichuan Xiu somewhat suspicious. He picked up the property deed and examined it closely from different angles

What is the reason for you, Shirakawa?

Alright, now we have settled the accounts completely, and there shall be no regrets

Roger: "Hey, Baichuan, you are also a girl, what do you think those two sentences from Kadan mean—did she agree or not?"

***

The attendees began to discuss among themselves: "The ungrateful brat! Lord Ge Yingxing has saved him several times, yet he actually left before the memorial service was over!"

Zichuan Xiu nodded silently, pretending not to notice the pain reflected in Zichuan Ning's gaze

However, the fact is that before noon on that day, the majority of the Far East soldiers had returned to the camp, as they understood that their commander, Emperor Lin, was not a suitable person for discussing grammatical matters. By one o'clock, the various units began to count their numbers and assemble

Ming Yu: "Lord Xiuchuan, could you please help us check if there has been a mistake? Didn't we hear that Lord Sterling is currently reorganizing the military affairs of the Imperial Capital? Could you assist us in approaching him through the back door?"

The cadet class from the Far East Military Academy has also been dispatched! We are now relying on the Boy Scouts to fight.

On the second day of the fourth month in the year 779 of the Imperial Calendar, an army consisting of twenty-five divisions that originally belonged to the subordinate of Lei Hong mutinied and raised the banner of rebellion against the Zichuan family
