Chapter 347: Yiqing Starts
The morning light is dim.

The earth was shaking outside Wangshu City.

The thunderous sound echoed endlessly, and the overflowing silver energy had not yet dissipated, but someone had already returned to the city gate.

Another silver light that was more than ten miles long cut through the battlefield. Blood gushed out from the broken and exploded corpses and flowed into the deep ravine in an instant.

In the battle, tens of thousands of people died.

Duke Yan forced himself to suppress his confusion and waved the battle flag vigorously. In fact, he had lost his judgment. Faced with such a horrific gap, his command ability and prestige in the army fell to the bottom.

“Press them all up!”

“The battle flag moves forward, where is the flag guard camp?”

“I will report your will on the Golden Terrace. I will die today!”

Boom!

Silver light shone again on the battlefield.

Jiang He took a step forward, and a strong wind blew towards him like a knife. The army formation in front of him quickly approached, and he ran straight into several heavily armored shield soldiers in the front row. The powerful physique of the Overlord shattered the shields, and the flesh and blood of the soldiers burst, leaving no trace of their bodies.

Boom boom boom!
In a straight line that was more than ten miles long, blood was flowing and nearly a thousand people disappeared from the world. The broken armor plates were like cannonballs, and the violent impact tore everything around them into pieces.

Jiang He kept moving forward, and several siege towers that were high up on the city wall collapsed. Hundreds of brave warriors fell down, causing heavy casualties.

Silver light crisscrossed the battlefield, and the imperial army was completely defeated in a few cuts. The once fearless generals fled for their lives, and the elite soldiers took off their armor and dropped their guns, fleeing in groups of three or five.

At the front of the collapsing battle formation, the young prince who was born into a royal family had bloodshot eyes. It was obvious that his ambition to gain merit on the battlefield had been shattered. To slaughter tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the blink of an eye was a force that was far beyond his comprehension.

“Youyou Cang Tian, ​​how can you treat me less favorably?”

The young prince rode his horse forward angrily, holding his spear tightly in his arms, and charged fiercely towards the silver light.

The Liver and Gallbladder Five-Du Spear is a secret technique passed down by the grandmaster. The more excited the emotions, the greater the power of the secret spear technique. The spear is extremely powerful, but it often hurts one’s liver and gallbladder, so the lifespan of the inheritor is short.

boom!
A bright silver light flashed across the sky, and the ground cracked.

The Overlord’s physique smashed the spear into pieces and rushed past at an unparalleled speed. The young prince died, leaving only blood splattering, just like any other soldier.

Jiang He concentrated on killing, using his arm as a sword, and the heavy armor and weapons blocking his way turned into debris. Clusters of flesh and blood exploded like fireworks, and blood flowed like a river. Apart from the young prince, there were very few enemy soldiers who dared to launch a charge.

Long!
Jiang He forced himself to stop at the end of the battle formation. The force of the shock was transmitted to the ground, and the fan-shaped area a hundred meters in front of him immediately collapsed, and more than a dozen large catapults toppled and collapsed.

“Run!”

“My Lord, we are willing to serve you.”

“Kill Duke Yan!”

Seeing that they could not escape in time, countless soldiers simply chose to surrender on the spot. A few generals and their personal soldiers had evil thoughts. Faced with a monster that was far superior to the grandmaster, they didn’t even have a clue how to escape, let alone fight to the death.

On the top of the city wall, Wuhe pecked at his feathers lightly, and heard the dense and chaotic wails and screams from the battlefield.

“All were killed in one battle.”

Wuhe sent 3,000 cavalry out of the city to clean up the mess. The boss slaughtered the imperial army with unscrupulousness. If it was replaced by a few hundred silver soldiers, the war would have been completely over by now. After all, these creatures basically knew what kind of power the great powers were, but the guys in the Bronze Age found it difficult to understand the gap between the two sides.

Looking down from the sky, several long “sword cuts” were left forever on the earth, broken corpses were everywhere, blood mixed with dust flowed, filling the deep ravines into blood channels.

Jiang He stopped killing, and flames ignited on his body, burning away the blood and mud on his body. He called a vicious cavalryman and ordered: “There are 40,000 to 50,000 defeated soldiers. We will not recruit them this time. Let them spread the news, so that everyone will not be deaf and blind.”

“In a week, I will lead 3,000 cavalrymen to attack the capital. All the cities along the way that refuse to surrender when seeing the flag of the Marquis’ Mansion, including the garrison commanders, civil officials, noble families, and clans, will be killed. Anyone who climbs onto the top of the city wall with weapons will be killed.”

“This visit to the capital is to clear the emperor’s entourage and restore order. I asked the Marquis’ Mansion to draft a memorial to the emperor: Why is the Prince of Andong the regent?”

“Understood.” The evil soldier took the order.

After Jiang He finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and forged a spear made of thorns entangled with each other. The blood poison of the immortal level spread on it, making it dark red and creepy.

“Keep it for fun.”

“Thank you, sir. Hehe.”

As tens of thousands of defeated soldiers fled in panic, the white-haired Duke of Yan stopped on his horse. Looking back on most of his life, the old man came to an astonishing conclusion that the martial arts realm of the Marquis Pingluan was likely to have surpassed that of all the great masters in the world and reached an unprecedented level.

“The Marquis is truly the pinnacle of martial arts.”

Seeing the Marquis of Pingluan approaching step by step, the Duke of Yan lowered his posture. Just when he thought that the other party was going to show some respect, he suddenly heard a cold shout.

“Take it!”

“Here.”

Several vicious knights pulled the white-haired old man off his horse and captured him, the latter’s face was full of disbelief.

“Why do you insult me, Lord?”

“Take off the head and send it to the capital.”

Jiang He gave the order casually. He had no shortage of assistance from famous ministers and generals. The dignitaries in the Daqian court had only two choices: surrender or wait for death. Now the only thing that could make him make concessions was time.

“Traitor!” Duke Yan cursed, “Your mother is a slave!”

Click!

The evil soldier swung his sword and cut off the head.

……

June 6, the first year of Jianyan.

Mars rises in the east, and killing breaks out everywhere.

A piece of news quickly spread across the country.

Outside Wangshu City, Pingluan Hou alone wiped out an army of 120,000. Within ten breaths, he killed more than 70,000 elite soldiers. The newly promoted eighth spear prince in the world and other masters were killed without a complete body, and the Duke of Yan was buried with him.

After this battle, the Marquis of Suppressing the Rebellion became famous throughout the world.

Half of the Qingzhou noble families fled south of the Yangtze River, while local families headed by the Shan and Changsun families chose to seek refuge.

In view of the reality that countless aristocratic families in Yizhou had been exterminated, in response to the Marquis’s usual land distribution plan for suppressing the rebellion, the Shan and Changsun families’ countermeasure was to split up the entire family.

The direct and collateral branches were organized into households, with each household owning 900 mu of land. In this way, they retained most of the land. Then, with the clan as the bond, they established a clan association to supervise the industry. Through a series of contingency measures, they were able to “have countermeasures at the bottom.”

Wangshu City.

In the study of the City Lord’s Mansion, Wuhe was so angry that he pecked at the memorial to pieces. “Boss, you are deceiving God!”

“These noble families are planning to outlast you and then make a comeback.”

“Kill them all!”

Wu Ge was particularly annoyed at the “cleverness” of these aristocratic families. If the Shan and Changsun families had not sent their legitimate daughters to show their submission, he would have led his entire army to attack them directly.

Lao Hei was relatively calm and not willing to commit a large number of murders. He immediately consoled them, “Even if the Shan and Changsun families are gone, there are still the Shan and Sunchang families. Aristocratic families are something that is created through transformation.”

“Everyone who studies wants to stand out. I think this result is acceptable. We can only stay for five months. There is no way to solve the problem once and for all.”

Wuhe and Laohei had a rare argument. The former thought that killing until no one in the world dared to overstep their boundaries might solve the problem, while the latter believed that in that case hundreds of millions of people might die in Daqian, and the most important thing was that they did not have the time and energy.

Jiang He sipped the dragon blood wine quietly. During this period, the one-month curse of the earth on him had ended, and the third air vortex was also successfully liquefied, providing all-round growth. Since his will had a tendency to transform into gold, the original energy limit of 10,000 points at the silver level had also been broken through.

[Hint: Your overall attributes +1]
[Hint: Your energy value +1000]
[Strength: 26+2 → 27+2]

[Constitution: 26+2→27+2]
[Spirit: 25+2→26+2]
[Charm: 36+2→37+2]
[Silver Energy: 11001]
“…Brother, I won’t argue with you anymore.”

Wuhe didn’t want to hurt the relationship because of foreign affairs, so he turned around and asked, “Boss, what should we do?”

Jiang He said calmly: “Let’s focus on the basics. The three major sects in Qingzhou and many aristocratic families must hand in all their martial arts books, and the sects must be placed under the management of the martial arts sect.

“Also, suppressing Qingzhou requires a large number of evil soldiers. Ask Zhuang Ya to speed up the progress. I should leave for the capital tomorrow morning.”

Nowadays, Yizhou has basically stabilized all aspects as the basic base. Qingzhou is in a state of erosion and needs to further deepen its influence. If the entire Daqian is to provide nutrition for the team, it is not enough to just push forward. Only when the order is complete can it continue to demand.

After the meeting, Wuhe led the Flying Legion to Qingzhou, ready to cooperate with Wuzong to collect the most important martial arts.

Lao Hei continued to stay in Wangshu City to handle the affairs of Yiqing State.

Jiang He spread his blood wings and flew into the sky towards Jianchi Mountains, where the largest gold mine in Yizhou was located.

……

Jianchi Mountains.

A 600-meter-long giant white snake arched its body, then suddenly plunged into the ground, and then began to spin wildly.

The friction between the hard scales and the rock layers splashed countless sparks. The giant white snake went all the way down, reached the gold storage point, and then climbed out, like an alien insect drilling in and out of the desert.

After repeated excavation, the area above the gold mine was completely turned into a pile of rubble. Fifty thousand civilians and evil soldiers mixed together to carry out collective mining. The gold ore was transported up and refined on the spot. Another army of ten thousand people was stationed around to supervise the construction.

This major project took half a month to complete and was extremely costly and labor-intensive. If it were not for the newly allocated land and the evil soldiers who served as role models to ensure their enthusiasm, normally mining should have taken years, with Zhuang Ya alone handling more than 80% of the work.

“234 cases of civilians hiding gold.”

“177 corrupt officials.”

“Among the evil army, 554 people have laid hands on metal and stone.”

“We have mined and refined 600 tons of gold stone.”

When Jiang He descended from the sky and entered the camp, the eldest son of the Zhu family immediately came over to report on his work. He was good at numerology and had outstanding dispatching and commanding abilities. During the construction process, he pushed the original Shuguang people to the position of deputy.

“From now on, the transportation of gold, stone and the bodies of the condemned prisoners to the tent will be the responsibility of the Evil Knights.” Jiang He said that among the current 100,000 Evil Army, the Evil Soldiers are only a minority, so some unexpected situations are inevitable.

“Understood.” The Dawn Man replied.

The eldest son of the Zhu family turned his attention away from the number of gold and stones. The large gold mine in Jianchi Mountain was rare in history. After mining, it was enough to make a man rich enough to rival a country. There were countless people among the civilians and soldiers who were secretly coveting it. As long as they stretched out their hands to take some money, they would be able to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

“My Lord, how do we deal with those who have their hands on gold and stone?”

“Deal with it according to the law.” Jiang He said.

The eldest son of the Zhu family nodded slightly, which meant to kill them all. With the Marquis’s current reputation as a world-renowned master, the backlash of this move would not be that great. After all, there were 70,000 people imprisoned in Daming Prefecture before, and they were all killed. Everyone in the Marquis’s Mansion had long been forced to get used to it.

Not long after, cartloads of gold, stone and corpses were delivered.

Jiang He started to perform alchemy immediately, and he was familiar with the process.

The corpse was cast with liquid gold melted by the Ultimate Flame, shaped according to the pattern fixed in the secret recipe, and the Ouroboros personal mark was printed on the inside of the heart. After just a few seconds, an evil soldier stood up and saluted, his eyes looking a little confused.

“Greetings, Maharaja.”

The eldest son of the Zhu family was horrified when he saw this. He lowered his head and closed his eyes.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang He did not stop his actions.

“My Lord, this is not something I can stand for.” The eldest son of the Zhu family is very shrewd. This secret method of resurrecting the dead can change the world. He wishes he could dig out his own eyes.

“It doesn’t matter.” Jiang He said indifferently: “Those who can fight with me will not care about the evil soldiers. Those who care about this kind of secret technique are still far from killing me. Sometimes, hiding is just because of lack of strength, otherwise it is another matter.”

The eldest son of the Zhu family was speechless. He witnessed the birth of elite soldiers one after another in front of him. He realized that they were not very smart, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he secretly sighed that with such a method and invincible military force, the one who could conquer the world must be the Marquis of Suppressing Rebellion. The other party might have deliberately revealed this skill.
“Your Majesty has worked hard, and it is our officials who are incompetent.”

Jiang He paused and said, “Select a group of capable officials from Yizhou and send them to the capital in a while. With your Zhu family’s centuries-old family background, this shouldn’t be difficult.”

The eldest son of the Zhu family said in fear and trepidation: “I dare not form a party.”

“Cultivate followers?” Jiang He said calmly, “Why not change the wording to unite colleagues? The only thing you need to consider is to complete the tasks assigned to you.”

The eldest son of the Zhu family no longer refused and accepted the order.

Each evil soldier consumed ten kilograms of gold. After one day, six hundred tons of gold were used up, and a total of sixty thousand evil soldiers were born in the military camp.

Jiang He called Zhuang Ya over, and the latter skillfully transformed herself into a little white snake and climbed up his neck.

“Shuguang, inform Wuhe to mix these evil soldiers into the existing army. Yiqing and Yizhou will each station 70,000 soldiers. In addition, transfer 20,000 infantrymen to set off for the capital. Gold mining will continue. The daughter of the Shan family and the eldest grandson will be sent to the backyard. We will talk about it after we take over the capital.”

“Understood, Master.”

Jiang He landed outside Wangshu City. Three thousand evil cavalrymen were ready. One thousand of them were evil knights wearing constructed armor, all of whom had the strength of mid-level warriors.

The cavalry set out, and smoke and dust filled the sky.

At the same time, countless spies who were monitoring Wangshu City immediately passed the news on.

Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and many heroes have emerged. The Dead Gang in Liangzhou in the northwest is strong, and there are folk rumors in Jizhou in the north that a great master has been born.

The southeastern Yangzhou wealthy merchants alliance and the western Yongzhou horse bandits are everywhere.

The evil cults in Jingzhou and Yunzhou in the south and southwest were wreaking havoc, with King Anton dominating the center.

But everyone in the world knows that the Marquis of Pingluan, who controls the two states of Yi and Qing, is the most powerful contender for the throne.
