Chapter 1398 The War God Prince, Majestic and Awe-inspiring
Zhongyue fought against the Western Barbarians for several days, and the situation at the front became increasingly severe and intense, which also affected the situation at the rear.
The tranquility and peace of Zhongyue County had vanished, replaced by a somber atmosphere. Fortunately, the people in the rear were not significantly affected, and they continued to live their lives in peace and contentment.
In the past, whenever war broke out, there were always people who wanted to profit from it, selling weapons and grain at high prices.
However, this time these chaotic practices of profiting from the war were stopped!
All of this is thanks to Zhongyue's War God Prince!
On the one hand, he began stockpiling and purchasing grain and fodder this spring, and on the other hand, he provided relief to the people when drought struck parts of Zhongyue.
Now that war has broken out, there is also a large supply of grain for the people's daily needs. The people do not need to buy grain at high prices, nor do they need to panic about not having enough food to survive.
On the other hand, the Night King also vigorously rectified the court, punishing and removing corrupt officials, and appointing a large number of officials responsible for benevolence and righteousness.
The Night King's faction led the court in suppressing bad practices, cracking down on officials, families, merchants, and organizations that wanted to profit from the war.
Now no one dares to swagger around and recklessly profit from the war.
The situation at the rear is stable, but the situation at the front is not optimistic.
Marquis Lei Rao of Weibei was injured again, while the unruly and treacherous Western barbarian army fought desperately against Zhong Yue's army as if they didn't care about their own lives. In addition, the Western barbarian army had several martial gods and a large number of martial kings participating, and Zhong Yue's army was repeatedly suppressed, with morale soaring.
At this moment, news arrived from the border that the Night King was about to lead an expedition.
Overnight, morale soared, especially among the Golden Guards! Their leader had arrived, the War God Prince was coming!
Zhong Yue's army rallied, and with General Yang Wu, a subordinate of the Night King, spreading the Night King's might among the troops, everyone saw hope and gritted their teeth to persevere.
The fact that Ye Xiaohan was appointed as the Grand General Protector of the Nation and sent to war was not kept secret, and spies from various countries quickly relayed the latest news from Zhongyue back to their respective regions.
"The Night King has defeated Emperor Zhongyue! The Night King has led his army into battle!"
Some people are happy that the Night King is going to war, while countless others do not want him to go to war.
"Don't let the Night King appear on the front lines! Intercept him! Kill him!"
Therefore, from the day Ye Xiaohan left the capital, he encountered countless sneak attacks along the way.
A small raid every two days, a large raid every three days.
Ye Xiaohan showed no tolerance or leniency, and always killed the assassins.
"By my order, leave no one alive!"
Among these assassins were Zhong Yue people who disliked Ye Xiaohan, such as the Emperor, the Empress, and other factions.
There were also members from various assassin organizations, large and small. Among them, Biluo Blood Killer had become more subdued and only dared to send a small team to ambush Ye Xiaohan, resulting in the loss of another batch of subordinates.
Furthermore, there were spies and assassins from four countries, among whom the assassins from the Western Barbarians were the most fanatical, and the assassins from the Eastern Empire were the most powerful.
Despite numerous sneak attacks, Ye Xiaohan's army did not suffer significant losses; it was the assassins from various factions who suffered the most severe damage.
It was another dark night, inside the main tent where candlelight flickered.
Ye Xiaohan sat upright at the table, writing a letter home to Yun Mujiu.
Before he had even finished writing half of it, a loud horn sounded outside the tent, followed by a messenger reporting: "Your Highness, another attack has occurred!"
Ye Xiaohan quickly stuffed the letter into his robes, stood up abruptly, and picked up a long sword.
"By my order, beat the drums to signal the enemy!"
A few days later, Yun Mujiu stared blankly at the letter in her hand.
There were a few bloodstains on the back of the letter. She asked anxiously, "Wei Bai, is the Prince injured?"
Besides writing letters to Yun Mujiu, Ye Xiaohan also exchanged letters with Wei Bai to discuss matters. However, the letters Wei Bai received were far less personal, being official, cold, and indifferent.
Wei Bai immediately replied, "No! The letter from the prince to his subordinates did not mention any injury; this must be someone else's blood!"
"That's good!" Yun Mujiu breathed a sigh of relief and then carefully examined the letter in her hand.
Seeing the words is like seeing you in person. In the context of the new dynasty she traveled to, she actually started to experience the feeling of "online dating".
...
After Ye Xiaohan set out on his campaign, he led his army on a journey that was marked by numerous stops and ambushes, and finally arrived at the front lines after more than ten days.
As soon as Ye Xiaohan arrived at the military camp, hundreds of thousands of Jinxiang Guards cheered, and even the imperial army was overjoyed.
Meanwhile, the original commander-in-chief, Marquis Weibei, was so badly injured that he was barely clinging to life. Ye Xiaohan had him sent back to the capital and took over the affairs of the military camp himself.
Ye Xiaohan won a great victory in his first battle, which terrified the Western barbarian army.
They never expected that, after several months, they would see that fearsome and awe-inspiring war god prince again on the battlefield!
