Book 06 Chapter 023: Revenge for the Nation, Marching in All Directions
The Han Imperial Dynasty was established.
Gu Hai looked down on everything as he stood on the altar. The citizens cheered. The officials had resumed their respectful salute, feeling very awkward.
“Chen Tianshan!” Gu Hai called out.
“This official is present!” Chen Tianshan said respectfully.
“How many cities did our Han Nation lose while we were not around?” Gu Hai asked indifferently.
“Reporting to Your Reverence, the Wu Imperial Dynasty captured ten Han Nation cities in the past five years. The Everlasting Governance Royal Dynasty captured eight cities. The Glorious Night Royal Dynasty captured eight cities. Incense Burning Valley captured six cities. The Azure Cloud Sect captured five cities. The Patron Sect captured seven cities. We have lost a total of forty-four cities!” Chen Tianshan replied respectfully.
“Forty-four cities? Haha! First Corps commander, Gao Xianzhi, receive your orders!” Gu Hai shouted coldly.
Gao Xianzhi and the others had been maintaining their salute, not daring to get up. They felt happy over Gu Hai’s return but also nervous.

“Incense Burning Valley, the Azure Cloud Sect, and the Patron Sect challenged our Han Nation and attacked our cities, hurting our officials and citizens. They are to be destroyed as a warning to other evildoers. We appoint Mo Yike as the Nation Rousing Supreme Commander! You are to take charge of destroying the three sects. All those who assaulted my Han Nation will repay a hundredfold!” Gu Hai instructed.
“This official obeys! I will not fail Your Reverence’s command!” Mo Yike shouted.
“Chen Tianshan!”
“This official is present!”
“Announce to the world: The Han Imperial Dynasty is taking revenge for our nation and attacking the three sects and two dynasties. Anyone who dares to ally with them will be treated as enemies by the Han Nation. We will kill without mercy!” Gu Hai instructed.
