Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Still proud!

Tears in my eyes!

This was the first time that the fangs of Great Yan were shown to the barbarians in that land!
Kill one of my people and I will massacre your entire city!
Anyone who violates the might of the Great Yan Heaven will be punished, no matter how far away they are!

His Majesty the Great Yan, Li Kuan!
Just these words, how powerful and domineering are they?
I massacred your city of origin and left my name behind, so what?

If you feel angry or dissatisfied, just come on!
Dayan, never afraid of any enemy!

In the great flame,

Guo Shoujing was attending the morning court at that time. When he received those letters and even the letters of surrender, he was extremely excited.

He immediately announced a two-day suspension of court and personally pardoned a group of prisoners with less serious crimes as a sign of celebration!
Some countries in the Western Regions are willing to become vassal states. This has far-reaching implications. If handled properly, it can be enough to determine the overall situation there in one fell swoop!

……

March, end of the month.

It’s late at night, Yanmen Pass!
A group of light cavalry rushed back from the desert and began to beat the city.

"Open the door, open the door! General..."

"came back!"

"Zhang Hai, it's Zhang Hai!"

"Damn it, why is it you, little bastard!"

"Quick! Open the door!"

"They're back, they're back!"

"..."

The soldiers guarding Yanmen Pass could barely see the faces outside the city gate with the faint starlight, and each of them showed an expression of great joy.

"Gah~".

The heavy city gate was slowly opened, and everyone on the city wall rushed out excitedly to greet them!

After not seeing them for nearly a month, these dozen or so cavalrymen were all dirty, and some of them even had beards on their faces.

It was a bit cold at night, and many people were breathing out to keep warm...
"General Guan, hehe!"

A few younger soldiers smiled and scratched their heads, looking quite shy.

Guan Tong didn't say anything, he walked up to them and patted their shoulders gently, a little excited: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"

"You guys are really lucky! You must have gained a lot of military merit this time, right?"

"Hahaha! We've all heard about it..."

"Wow! They wiped out more than 20,000 enemy troops in one battle, and even massacred more than a dozen royal cities! Just thinking about it makes me excited!"

"If I had known, I would have followed him!"

Chatting and laughing!

Many people also showed envy in their eyes!
Just use your butt to imagine how great it was to make this trip to the Western Regions!
Those achievements alone are enough to help him rise to the top!

Chen Qingzhi and others soon heard the news and rushed over in a hurry!
After all, they are the people in charge of Liangzhou. Ever since the news came from the Western Regions, they have not slept well in the past few days.

"What about His Majesty? And the others?"

Xu Changshi didn't waste any words and looked anxious.

In the past two days, Xin Qiji, Qi Jiguang and others were going crazy. They even wanted to take their troops into the desert to bring Li Kuan and others back.

Damn it, is this what a human being says?
The atmosphere was already so tense that many rulers were even living in fear, and now the army of Da Yan had come in...

Wouldn't they be scared to death?
Remember, everything is excessive as bad as insufficient!
If it causes a strong backlash, wouldn't that cause further trouble?
"Your Majesty, they are still more than ten miles away, so we came back to inform them first! Oh, and boil more hot water!"

"Hehe! I've been busy traveling these days and haven't taken a shower. I stink a long time ago."

"And call a doctor, someone is injured..."

"..."

As each person spoke, their faces were filled with joy.

Xin Qiji also smiled and said:
"Haha, good! Old Xu, quickly give the orders! Also, remember to call King Hejian and the others over! Oh, right, tell the kitchen staff..."

He was still giving instructions in an orderly manner, and everyone was busy preparing for the task!
Even though it was late at night, the entire Yanmen Pass became extremely lively again, and the sound of footsteps could be heard on the street.

Many of the common people didn't know what was going on and thought that the barbarians were coming to knock on the gate, so they all climbed up from the kang.

When they saw the soldiers holding torches and looking very happy, many people showed confusion on their faces.

"Erzhu, what happened? Why are you not sleeping so late at night? Are the barbarians coming?" an old woman shouted out of the window.

"Haha! His Majesty and the others are back! Aren't we going to go pick them up? Auntie, just go to sleep! It's nothing!"

A soldier laughed.

"His Majesty?"

Many people looked at each other in confusion, but soon they reacted!

"Oh! Our Majesty is back. This is such a happy event!"

"Old man! Get up quickly, why are you still sleeping?"

"Gou Wa's father, get ready to explode the pole! Come on, let's entertain His Majesty!"

"..."

Most of the common people in Yanmen Pass were relatives of the soldiers. They were of course very excited to hear that Li Kuan had returned victoriously!

Everyone got dressed and lit the candles in the house.…

Brightly lit!

The entire Yanmen Pass was completely awakened, and it was much more lively than during the Chinese New Year!
Li Xiaogong, Qi Jiguang, Du Ruyan and others also heard the noise and were even more alarmed!

After half a stick of incense.

There was a lot of hustle and bustle, and many people crowded at the gate of Yanmen Pass, all wanting to witness the hero's return together!
Among these people, Li Xiaogong, Qi Jiguang and other high-ranking officials were all there, standing at the front, and there were also full of soldiers standing on the city wall.

The common people are also looking forward to it, ready to release the explosive rod at any time!
Doctor, painter...
Also on high alert!

Treat the wounded, or draw that exciting scene!

This is the first time that Dayan has gone abroad to rescue his own people, how can it not be exciting?
nation.…

We are gradually becoming stronger and don't have to fear any enemies!
"Damn it, Zhang Liao brought His Majesty! He was so dawdling that I had to blow the cold wind here! Hiss~" Qi Jiguang was still muttering.

"Hmph! You're fat and yet you're afraid of the cold?" Xin Qiji sneered.

Li Xiaogong and others also had smiles on their faces, and were too lazy to pay attention to the two people who were arguing.

Du Ruyan's eyes were full of tenderness, and she stared ahead without blinking.

Although they had been apart for less than a month, she felt as if every day was a year. After all, it was not pleasant to be on tenterhooks all day. Not long after, a scream suddenly rang out from the city wall:

"Here, come back!"

Everyone looked over there!
The first thing that catches the eye is the flags fluttering in the night wind, and the word "Yan" written in a flamboyant style is exactly what people want!
A group of people walked slowly, with one person riding in the front!

It can be seen that the white robe was once stained with a large amount of blood, and it was covered with bloodstains, which looked so shocking.

He was dirty all over, his hair was disheveled, and he was not wearing a mask. He looked very tired.

Du Ruyan couldn't bear it any longer and ran straight over to the paper!
Seeing the figure in red robe, a smile appeared on Li Kuan's lips?
He waited until she was almost close before he dismounted.

Du Ruyan threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, as if she was afraid that if she let go, the man in front of her would disappear.

Li Kuan felt warm in his heart, and he gently stroked her cheek, smiled, and murmured:
"Yan Er, I. I'm back..."

Holding the soft jade in my arms, I sob softly!
Seeing Du Ruyan looking like a little woman and smelling the familiar fragrance of her hair, Li Kuan felt much calmer.

"Hahaha... You've become the queen, but you're still so dependent on others. Aren't you afraid of making a fool of yourself?" He grinned and teased.

"Your Highness, you are my man, and you don't allow me to act like a spoiled child?"

Du Ruyan rolled her eyes and said unhappily.

Li Kuan smiled, a trace of warmth emerged in his heart, and he stroked her hair gently, his eyes still full of tenderness, and said softly:
"You've lost weight~"

"Your Highness, you still have the nerve to say that? Don't you look at yourself and see what you have become? You didn't take good care of yourself along the way..."

Du Ruyan's tone was full of blame!

He still looked quite embarrassed!
His hair was disheveled and his whole body was dirty. At first glance, he looked like a beggar, which made her feel even more distressed.

Li Kuan smiled:
"Isn't it time to come back to see you and your daughter? Besides..."

A little farewell is better than a wedding!
The two were still talking, and no one else bothered them. Only the painters were waving their brushes and ink frantically.

I want to paint this scene, and those white-haired soldiers!
They were ragged, wounded, and exhausted, but their eyes were still sharp and they held their weapons tightly in their hands.

How can this scene not move people?
"I finally understand why some people want to stay away from this young couple!" Qi Jiguang's mouth twitched.

"Oh?"

"What do you have to say, old man?"

Li Xiaogong, Xin Qiji and others all looked over at the same time, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

"How can those guys who have been bachelors for half their lives stand your Majesty's disgust? Hehe!" Qi Jiguang laughed in a frivolous way.

"You are wrong! At least help to arrange things, so that you don't have to be idle all day and run around causing trouble! Your Majesty, please..."

Several people were also whispering.

Anyway, while the generals are away, we can take him out, whip his corpse, and say a few bad words about him. Is there anything wrong with that?
Fortunately, Li Kuan still had some idea in his mind and did not delay for too long. He just said a dozen words or so and then led the group to Yanmen Pass!
Just a dozen sentences, is that a lot?

This time, most people from Illinois did not return and stayed in the city.

After all, this border town has great strategic significance and has been operated for decades. How could it be lost so easily?

There were also more than two thousand soldiers who stayed behind, most of whom were from Liangzhou. After all, it was closer there, so it would be easier for them to go home.

Li Kuan has already made up his mind to open up this passage, and he will definitely not encounter the same situation as the previous Sui Dynasty.

The imperial court also had its eyes on the Western Regions

These soldiers have been away for decades!
After a while, troops will be transferred to Yicheng for garrison, and then the troops left behind will be able to come back!

There were another forty or fifty people who followed him back to Yanmen Pass, most of them were ordinary people, and there were nearly twenty white-haired soldiers.

They were considered the representatives of the 50,000 Wuzu Guards, and they carried a lot of...

Maybe it’s a suicide note whose handwriting has already become blurred!
This also means I have to go back to Yanyun City to help deal with a lot of things!
"Yanmen..."

Looking at this majestic pass, Guan Shurong, Gu Cheng and others had complicated emotions in their eyes, and some even shed tears.
The scene of the past march out of the frontier was still vivid in front of us. They had an army of more than 50,000 soldiers, marching out of the three passes of Beiting, heading for the desert.

That’s thirty or forty years!
Li Xiaogong, Qi Jiguang and others were also quite moved when they saw the appearance of these people.

Among the common people and soldiers who were watching, many were secretly wiping away tears.

"Former Sui Wuzu Guards! Tang Guiyi Army! All...all report to Dayan!"

Guan Shurong bowed his hands, saluted in the direction of Li Xiaogong, Qi Jiguang, Li Kuan and others, shed tears, and shouted loudly.

Gu Cheng and others also shouted:

"Former Sui Wuzu Guards! Tang Guiyi Army! All of you report to Dayan!"

"Pre-Sui..."

"Everyone report!!!"

Hoarse shouts echoed through this border fortress.
Echoing in the quiet night!
One sound after another, interweaving together, went straight up to the sky, and even to the depths of the desert, as if to catch those who had lost their way.…

Call back the lonely souls still wandering outside!

The eyes of the vast majority of people were filled with tears, and some even saw those figures standing next to Guan Shurong and others in a trance.

More than 50,000 soldiers lined up in a row, looking heroic and high-spirited, and their blurred faces seemed to be filled with bright smiles.

Waiting and waiting, one month, one year, five years,…
I have waited so long until today, and finally I can...
Back home!
"well!"

Tears welled up in the eyes of Li Xiaogong and others. Even Cheng Yaojin, who was naturally open-minded, had a complicated look on his old face.

Several people bowed their hands and saluted, and the soldiers also took off their armor.
To show respect!

"Soldiers, come back! Don't wander around!"

An old man even shouted towards the west!
That vicissitudes of life sounded far and wide...
“Come back soon!”

Many people also started shouting, with some spitting on their faces. This was the only thing they could do.

The shouts are still echoing in the night sky...

Li Kuan and his group entered Yanmen Pass, and the doctors walked up quickly to treat the wounded and check everyone's health.

For a while, it was extremely busy!
"Crack!"

The blasting poles also started to sound, adding a bit of festivity to the already bustling Yanmen Pass, just like the New Year!
courtyard.

In a room, Du Ruyan was helping to pour hot water into a wooden barrel, while Li Kuan was still stretching, looking quite drowsy.

“The water temperature is just right…”

She came over, smiling, and helped him remove the armor.

He said unhappily, "Your Highness, you are so dirty!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. We have to save even the drinking water in the desert..."

Li Kuan smiled.
