The spring breeze was like a beautiful clip, cutting out fine willows and carving beautiful stamens. It also sketched out the setting sun of the river like a poem and painting.

Outside Shanzhou City, the twenty-four barracks stood like diamonds, majestic horns booming in the sky. Millions of banners danced in the wind like a shocking wave. Blades like snow, swords with frost, fierce horses hissing and strong, the mighty aura of the Hundred Miles Earth Realm stuffed with ghosts and gods cried out in shock!

Guanxi Army, parade!

Qin Mubai was dressed in his iconic military uniform, golden armor, qilin robe, and righteous saber with twin feathered crowns, standing on the dianjiang platform. In front of the stage was a marquis with a halberd. The dragon flag above his head was fluttering, and the 24-colored Starry Fang flag was divided into left and right to command the three armies.

Standing side by side with him was King Wu Li Ke. Today, he wore a formal purple deer dragon robe. Above his head was a three-beam Virtuous Advancement Crown. His jade belt was hanging from his waist with a sword. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the majestic army troops in front of him. His heart was surging with blood.

Li Ke inadvertently looked sideways and saw that he was facing Qin Mubai.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then turned around.

Behind them, apart from Xue Guanxi Army and Su Dingfang, the four pillars and eight armies of Rengui were all present. In addition, Li Daliang, Li Junxian, and Qin Tong were the three generals who had just led the 150 thousand imperial army, and there were more than ten generals.

Qin Mubai waved his hand and the drum rumbled after the 36-man-tall army drum shook the three links.

“Today, I, Guanxi Army, swear to march into the plateau to conquer Tibet!” Qin Mubai only said one thing. The cheers and roars of the tsunami echoed wildly from the mountains and far away. He raised his saber and spear and rolled his flags. It was like a volcano erupting in the depths of the sea, and the sea was surging.

After a long time, he finally stopped.

Qin Mubai said, “Commander Shi, Your Highness Guanxi Army, please read out a message!”

Thousands of soldiers shouted “King Wu Thousand Years Old”, causing the entire ground to tremble.

Li Ke had been in You Zhou for a long time and was also a soldier, so it was not that he hadn’t seen the world before. However, the scene in front of him made him tremble.

“Guanxi Army, mighty!” Li Ke shouted and took three steps forward.

This sentence seemed to instantly close the distance between him and the rest of the soldiers. Once again, the soldiers of the three armies cheered and shouted, “King Wu is a thousand years old!”

Li Ke cupped his hands and bowed respectfully with a nearly devout smile on his face. Only then did the army quieten down.

Taking a deep breath, Li Ke took out a thick imperial edict with a jade track and yellow face-Li Shimin personally drafted the “Proclamation for Tibet”. He spread out his hands and read out loudly–

“The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty personally issued a decree to the Son of Heaven, saying, ‘I, the Divine Artifact of the Kingdom, cherish and respect it; the foundation of the people, nurture and love it; the chaotic times of the demons and devils, the destruction of the Immortal Gods; even though the world is peaceful, forgetting to fight will be dangerous!”

“I am a Tibetan barbarian. I regret forgetting to repay you for not obeying Wang Hua. I have committed crimes against my people at the age of eighteen. I am furious and shocked by the abduction of people and animals in the sea …”

“Today, I will punish Hu Ni for the crime of subduing civilians. The three armies are under the control of Commander Qin Mubai of the Kansai Road marching army, commander of Anxi Protectorate. All the soldiers of the army will obey! I will teach Qin Mubai the axe-axe-axe talisman to the heavens and generals from now on. As for the earth and generals! Whoever refuses to obey the orders, the orders will be punished first and then!”

…

“Long live! Long live!”

On behalf of the Emperor, Li Ke personally handed over the axe and axe that represented the absolute authority of the army to Qin Mubai. Afterwards, the three generals Li Daliang, Li Junxian, and Qin Tong handed over the talismans to Qin Mubai.

At this point, Qin Mubai officially held all the military power of the three hundred thousand strong Kansai army!

…

It was just a military parade and the generals agreed that after three days of rest, the troops would be sent to Dafeichuan. Before this, Qin Mubai’s old tribe led by Yuwen Hongtai, who had been recuperating for a long time, led the commoners to escort the grain. When he arrived at Dafeichuan, he invited Jiang Xia King, Li Daozong, to lead his 50,000 Lanzhou recruits and return to Shanzhou to take charge of the logistics of the civil governor. Before Qin Mubai personally arrived at Dafeichuan, Xue Rengui would temporarily be in charge of Dafeichuan’s defense.

That night, the Governor’s Mansion hosted a banquet in honor of Li Ke, Li Daliang and the others.

Among the new important figures from Chang’an, Qin Tong was Qin Mubai’s biological elder brother. Li Junxian had worked with him in Baiji, let alone Li Ke, who was familiar with him. Only Li Daliang and Qin Mubai had nodded before.

However, even before transmigrating to the Great Tang, Qin Mubai was very familiar with this Great General Li.

Li Daliang was a meritorious general of the Great Tang Dynasty and a meritorious hero of the founding of the country. In his previous life, Qin Mubai had visited southern Taiwan several times to learn about the customs there. Li Ta-liang was Tainan’s respected “prince of the Five Palaces.” The Jade Emperor had given him the title of “king of the Lee Palace, a thousand years old,” to patrol the world on behalf of the Heavenly Inspectors and hunt in royal boats to eradicate the plague.

It was precisely because of this that Qin Mubai became more interested in Li Daliang after coming to the Great Tang. Through various understandings, we know that his silence is almost wooden, but he is diligent and hard-working, his personality is just and righteous, his official is very clean and honest, and he has a reputation of filial piety and filial piety.

On the whole, the rumoured Li Daliang was a general whose personality was almost perfect. Although he was in the military, he had always remained neutral and did not get involved in any factional struggles with the DPRK. Even Commander Sun Wuji and the others respected Li Daliang very much. In the royal court, although his position was not high, he was a respected and respected elder. In the army, he was the founding general of the same generation as Qin Shubao, Patriarch Xingxiu.

Therefore, at the banquet, even Li Ke refused to sit alone and invited Li Daliang to the first seat with Qin Mubai. Li Daliang was a sincere and honest Taoist. How could he possibly overstep Qin Mubai and Prince Li Ke? The three of them rejected each other and sat down side by side under the pleas of the generals.

It was needless to say that the table was bustling with excitement. Apart from being robed in the same robe, Qin Mubai also met his big brother, Qin Tong, who had not been masked for a long time. This banquet lasted for an entire four hours, and everyone was extremely happy when they returned from their drunkenness.

After the banquet, Qin Mubai hurriedly invited his eldest brother Qin Tong to the back residence and brought Chen Yan and Little Lou’er to pay their respects to his uncle.

Qin Tong was a typical straightforward and fierce martial artist. In addition, he drank a few glasses of strong wine and happily picked up Little Lou’er. He laughed heartily at first, but then suddenly burst into tears, which frightened Little Lou’er.

“Lord Father! If only you were alive, our family would be reunited here!” Qin Tong cried heartily, and Qin Mubai couldn’t help but feel his eyes turn red. He hurriedly comforted his big brother.

Later on, Chen Yan carried Little Lou’er away, leaving the two brothers to chat here. After leaving home for a long time, many things happened. Father died, Qin Mubai fraudulently died, and the two brothers had endless words to say. Speaking of emotions, Qin Tong pointed at Qin Mubai and cursed, “Third brother!” In the army, you are the commander-in-chief. If you want to kill or beat me, I will do as you please! When I get home, I am your eldest brother, and your eldest brother is like a father! I don’t care about the chaos caused by your previous fraudulent death, but it broke my mother’s heart and almost made her faint a few times, and her soul almost returned to the heavens! “You unfilial son, I really want to beat you up!”

“Big brother wants to curse or beat me up. I admit it. Let’s do it!” This was the first time Qin Mubai had knelt down in front of her eldest brother. She lowered her head and allowed herself to be dealt with.

“Ah! ‘”Qin Tong looked up and sighed. He bent down to help Qin Mubai up.” Get up, Third Brother. Although you have done something unfilial, you do not have any unfilial intentions. Big brother understands your difficulties. In order to win this war, you have risked everything. Big brother only dared to shamelessly reprimand you when he was only a few years older than you. Actually, our Old Qin Clan is completely dependent on you! From now on, big brother will listen to you! ”

“Thank you, big brother … I feel much more at ease now that I know that my mother and sister are fine. After father goes, the Qin Family will naturally respect big brother.” Qin Mubai heaved a sigh of relief.

“Brother, you have broken your bones and tendons. It doesn’t matter who listens to you.” Qin Tong said, “However, I have a family matter to discuss with you. You should at least tell me the truth, and I’ll be able to deal with it when the time comes.”

“What is it?” Qin Mubai asked.

“I heard that King Wu only stayed in Chang’an for half a day before leaving the capital to chase us. There is reliable news that he only did one thing after returning to Chang’an, and that is to ask His Majesty the Emperor and Imperial Concubine Yang Shu to make the decision and marry our Four Yas!”

“Oh?” Qin Mubai was slightly surprised, “He actually brought up this matter with His Majesty the Emperor at this moment?”

“Exactly.” Qin Tong said, “I wonder if his subordinates leaked the news to me intentionally or unintentionally. Tell me, the Emperor and Concubine Yang wanted King Wu to come to Lanzhou to supervise the army first. As for the marriage, we need him to hire him.”

After Qin Mubai finished listening, he pondered for a moment and said, “Big brother, pretend that you haven’t heard anything about this matter and temporarily hold down the watch. Everything will be discussed after the war is over.”

“Oh?” Qin Tong was a little confused. “Why are all of you so gentle and confused? I think King Wu’s kindness is worth Shuang’er’s trust.”

“Big brother, I haven’t completely figured out why the Emperor and Concubine Yang are doing this. Actually, it’s quite easy for them to fulfill this brown marriage. The Emperor can just use his mouth. Why use you and I as excuses to reject King Wu?” Qin Mubai raised the corner of his mouth and said, “That’s because Shuang’er is our sister.” Whom and when she marries is no longer a matter of her own, but an important political alliance. The Emperor had to wait until the war was over to see how the court was going and what the wind was like before deciding whether or not to approve the marriage. So, when he said that he wanted King Wu to ask for our opinion, it was actually a polite remark. You mustn’t take it for granted. Of course, King Wu would not be stupid enough to ask for our opinion. So, before the war is over, don’t mention this matter to anyone else. ”

“Alright, I understand. I’ll listen to you.” Qin Tong nodded and said, “Although it’s a family matter, it’s also a national matter-hahaha! Third Brother is capable! Our Old Qin Clan is now one of the leading clans in the Great Tang Empire! Our Old Qin Clan’s sisters can’t be married in one go!”

“Haha!” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Big brother, in fact, His Majesty the Emperor sent you to Kansai with another purpose. I wonder if you have thought of it?”

“What’s your intention?” Qin Tong blinked his eyes and asked.

“Father, take revenge on me.” Qin Mubai said these simple words, and Qin Tong suddenly realized, “Yes! The death of my father is both a national hatred and a family hatred! I am the eldest son of the Qin Family, how can the battle against Tibet for revenge and blood hatred be without me?”

Just as he finished speaking, Qin Tong realized that he was speechless and hurriedly said, “Third Brother, don’t misunderstand me. I didn’t mean to say anything … Di Shu!”

“Don’t mention it.” Qin Mubai smiled generously and said, “Of course there is no such barrier between us brothers, but in the minds of the monarchs, ministers, and officials, the difference in status is still very great. Father’s enmity is unsworn, but it is best for the eldest son of the first wife to repay him.”

Qin Tong knew that Qin Mubai was not such a stingy person and would stick to the word’descendant ‘. He was naturally not stupid either. He then said in a low voice, “Third Brother, I understand what you mean!” Are you alluding to King Wu’s identity? … I’ve really figured it out with just a little dialing from you. It seems that our Siya’er really can’t marry casually. This is related to the future rise and fall of our Old Qin Clan! –Should we agree to his marriage with Shuang’er? ”

Qin Mubai only smiled faintly. “Let’s just focus on the war now. We’ll talk about the rest then.”
