Han Yun flew eastward for two quarters of an hour, and finally found the body of the demon sect ancestor.
Having suffered losses before, he knew the importance of last-minute strikes. If he didn't see the enemy die with his own eyes, the enemy would counterattack at any time.
For example, the leader of the Demon Cult, such as Gu Tianfeng.
Han Yun cut off the head of the ancestor of the Demon Sect, stood up and flew towards the east again.
After passing several cities, he finally flew back to Mang Mountain.
At this time, the ancestor worship ceremony was interrupted on Mang Mountain. After such a long and fierce battle, it was naturally impossible to continue.
It stands to reason that the interruption of the ancestor worship ceremony and the almost loss of the dragon energy is a sign of great misfortune, indicating that natural and man-made disasters will continue in the days to come, and the emperor will be condemned and even punished by his own edict.
But this time it was a man-made disaster, not a natural disaster. After a fierce battle, the dragon's energy was saved, and the emperor was unharmed. The ministers spoke highly of his majesty's talent and strategy, and Dachuan's country was peaceful and the people were safe. The dragon's energy was unshakable.
Of course, the most important thing is that the old emperor's control over the court was too strong. If it were any other foolish and incompetent emperor, the ministers would have taken the opportunity to make things difficult for him.
But when such a big thing happens, there must be an explanation.
So, on the top of Mang Mountain, after the ministers congratulated him, they began to be filled with indignation.
A minister stood up and said,
"Your Majesty, the villain this time is obviously a joint effort between the Demon Cult and the northern barbarians.
The demon sect is entrenched in Yunchuan, like maggots attached to bones, eating away at Dachuan's national power and harming people's livelihood. The barbarians in the north are our world's enemies in the Central Plains. This time the two join forces to shake the foundation of our Dachuan River. This is tolerable, but it is intolerable.
I sincerely request your Majesty to send troops to quell the demonic sect and sweep the grasslands in order to boost the majesty of our great river! Shock Xiaoxiao! "
As soon as this person spoke, others immediately agreed and begged the emperor to send troops to attack.
The emperor sighed, his eyes a little deep, and when he was about to speak, Han Yun fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the crowd.
Everyone looked at the head he was holding in his hand, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, but also sighed secretly.
He breathed a sigh of relief because the great enemy of the imperial court was dead, and sighed because Han Yun was not dead.
Han Yun, a rough and unruly martial artist with great strength, gave them too strong a sense of oppression. After all, no one wanted to be sleeping at home. He was silently wiped out, or he was walking in a carriage. On the road, he was trampled to death by a donkey.
So in their hearts, they sincerely hope that it would be great if these two people could die together.
But Han Yun didn't die and came back fine.
So the ministers began to praise Han Taibao for his martial arts, which was the best in the world.
Han Yun glanced around and found that the shadow was gone, and then found the shadow on Yuhu.
"Han Taibao has made great achievements again this time."
The emperor praised.
"This is what Weichen should do."
Han Yun dropped the head in his hand, walked to the Imperial Guard, and took Xiao Yuxin.
The emperor ordered that everyone return to the capital, and Uncle Zong stayed to repair the damaged altar.
Han Yun got on his horse and walked forward with Xiao Yuxin in his arms. Wang Fugui came to his side on horseback.
"I was really worried just now. That guy was going to blow himself up. I thought you couldn't handle it. I was relieved to see you come back safely."
Han Yun felt the concern from his friends and was very touched.
He chuckled lightly and said,
"Do you know what I was thinking when that guy blew himself up?"
"What are you thinking? Thinking that you can't blow me up by luring that guy away? I know that I am the person you care about the most."
Wang Fugui said shamelessly.
"If you continue to disgust me like this, I will go to the East Palace and help the prince eliminate you."
"What the hell..."
"forget it. I'm done here."
Han Yun shook his head. He originally wanted to say that he wanted to take Wang Fugui, Chai Yuan and Xiao Yuxin away and let the second-grade strong man blow up all the ministers, but after hearing Wang Fugui's words, he didn't want to say it anymore. .
If you say it, this guy will definitely be disgusted with him again, and he will look gay inside.
He didn't want to talk, so Wang Fugui didn't ask any more questions and changed the topic.
"When you came just now, all the ministers were persuading my father to send troops to destroy the demon sect and attack the barbarians. Judging from my father's appearance, he didn't want to agree.
I'll test you and guess why. "
After thinking for a while, Han Yun said,
"The barbarians in the north cannot be fought. The grasslands are vast and there are few Dachuan cavalry. They are not suitable for fighting on the grasslands. Moreover, the barbarians have monsters as allies, so it is difficult to fight.
In normal times, Dachuan can rely on the Great Wall and natural barriers to guard the demons and barbarians and prevent them from coming over, but if they have to take the initiative, with the current level of decay in the army, it may be difficult to win.
Even if they win the battle, the barbarians and demons can still escape in circuitous ways on the vast grassland. Those who cannot be defeated will be regenerated by the spring breeze.
Worse still, they can escape to the snowy plains in the north, where the climate is cold. The monsters and barbarians can withstand it, but the Dachuan soldiers cannot. Once they fall into a protracted war, it will be a huge drain on Dachuan's national power, and the gains outweigh the losses.
As for the Demon Cult, didn't you say last time that they colluded with the remnants of Wu. Five hundred years ago, they couldn't destroy the remnants of Wu because they were in the mountains of Yunchuan.
After the imperial army passed by, they broke into pieces and hid in the mountains. As soon as the imperial army left, they came out again and could not kill them all.
In such a huge mountain, even if the imperial court sent hundreds of thousands of troops there, it would be a drop in the ocean and no one could be found at all.
However, Yunchuan is mountainous and is not suitable for stationing too many troops. Once there, it is not suitable for farming. The army cannot farm on the spot and cannot be self-sufficient. The imperial court has been transporting grain to Yunchuan for many years, and the number of civilians recruited on the road must be large, which affects farming. , and what people eat from horse chews is a huge waste. Coupled with the consumption of so many armies, it will seriously weaken Dachuan's national power.
Since the demon sect and the remnants of Da Wu in Yunchuan cannot go in and destroy them, there is only one way.
Wait for them to come out, wait for them to rebel, and then catch them all, then go straight to Huanglong and take away their lair.
The most important thing is that the emperor is old and has no energy to bother anymore. Even if he dies during the battle, it will be a fatal blow to morale, the court will fall into chaos, the princes will seize the throne, and no one will I will focus my energy on counterinsurgency later.
This matter must be left to the next young and powerful emperor. Firstly, the throne will be stable. Secondly, he will be energetic. Thirdly, this matter can also be used as the new emperor's achievement to convince the world.
Therefore, the emperor will definitely not allow chaos to occur after his death. He must personally select a new emperor who has the ability, brains and means to convince the officials so that Dachuan will not fall into internal strife and can concentrate on dealing with the possibility. Rebellion emerged. "
Han Yun spoke a lot eloquently and analyzed the current situation in the court and the emperor's thoughts very clearly.
Some people died, but not completely...
