There were no longer any allied troops stationed at the Emperor Palace, but there were a lot of scattered army soldiers that were entering and exiting the palace. Xiao Xuan and Shao Fang walked around the palace with their people, it could only be described as a tragic sight.
When they walked into Tsuilan Palace, they just happened to meet two Huan Army Soldiers coming out. The two chatted and laughed as they tied their belts.
"How is this woman?" "This daddy has never played with such a beautiful woman in his life before!" I heard that it was the princess of Zhen Country. " "I thought it was the princess." "Haha ?"
Xiao Xuan could not listen anymore after listening for a while. He frowned, looked at the people behind him, and shouted: "Go! "Return to camp outside the city!"
's Xi Tang, including the palace inside his Zhen Country, had already been ruined beyond recognition. He only had one feeling, and that was that it was dirty, and he did not want to stay in this kind of place for even a second longer.
He urged his horse to move outwards as he said to Shao Fang: "Send orders to the entire army, set the city on fire. Not a single People of Zhen Country in the city can be left alive!"
If the outside world were to know what the allied army was doing in the Xi Tang, not only would their reputation be ruined, even their Chuan Country would also be implicated. Right now, the best method was to completely destroy the Xi Tang and erase it from the world, so no one would know what the allied army had done here.
Shao Fang nodded in understanding, shook his head and said, "Royal Brother is right, I can't keep my Xi Tang any longer."
The alliance of the four nations, Feng, Yu, An and Huan, had long emptied the wealth of their Xi Tang. Now that Xiao Xuan and Shao Fang had proposed to massacre the city and set the Xi Tang on fire, the four kings Tang Yin, Ling Shuang, Yue Ze, and Li Xin naturally wouldn't object.
That day at noon, the allied army hanged Li Hong right in front of the Palace entrance of the Zhen Country Palace, following that, the allied army sealed the city gates, and carried out a bloody massacre on the People of Zhen Country in the city.
The allied army started a massacre in the city, and the Feng Army began a large-scale transport of People of Zhen Country s outside the city to the Feng Country.
Right now, the allied army had already ordered for the extermination of all the People of Zhen Country s inside and outside the Xi Tang. If they stayed, they would be doomed.
As the Feng Army were roaming all over the place, roaming the People of Zhen Country for the Feng Country, Pang Li sneakily arrived at the teahouse that Di You was managing.
At this moment, the teahouse was in a mess. There were broken teacups, tea bowls, and tables everywhere, and on the ground, dark black dried blood could be seen.
Seeing this, Pang Li's eyes became red again. She bit her lips and carefully walked past the teahouse to the backyard.
The teahouse had already been swept through multiple times by the Feng Army, and there wasn't anything left behind. Pang Li walked around but still couldn't find any valuable clues. Finally, she walked back into the courtyard and looked around helplessly. She couldn't help but sob softly.
[Is Brother Di going to be a mystery forever?] Would he never be able to find the person who would destroy his message? Just as Pang Li was feeling despair, she accidentally saw the old tree that was not far from him.
She suddenly remembered that Di You had told her before that if there was any important information to report, and he was not here, she could place that information in the bird nest on the old tree in the courtyard.
Thinking about this, she subconsciously raised her head. The bird nest on the tree was still there, and her Feng Army had searched through everything, but had forgotten about this place.
Pang Li reported the feeling she had for trying, went under the tree, used both hands and feet, and climbed up the tree in a few steps. With one hand on the branch and the other on the bird's nest, she touched it a few times, and suddenly her fingertip touched the hard object.
She revealed a look of surprise and joy ahee slid down the tree trunk and quickly took off the lid of the bamboo tube. He then flipped over the letter and with trembling hands, she opened up the letter Di You had written personally to her.
Di You had mentioned in the letter that if Pang Li could find this letter, then it would mean that she was dead. He believed that with Pang Li's intelligence, she would definitely find this letter as well.
He did receive Pang Li's message, and he had indeed thought of escaping and taking refuge, but then thought, even if he managed to successfully escape, in the end, he would never be able to avenge his country, and instead, he would drag Pang Li down with him.
Since he could not take revenge, it would be better to sacrifice himself to create a person who could take revenge, and that person would be Pang Li.
Pang Li was one of her subordinates, so she would definitely not be trusted by Tang Yin. being able to pass on the news of him being wanted to kill to Pang Li was also a test against her, so she decided to use her own death to exchange for Tang Yin's trust in Pang Li. Pang Li was someone close to Tang Yin in the first place. If she could get Tang Yin's trust, then revenge would be as easy as pie.
It could be said that the six nations that had united to suppress Zhen Country were all enemies. He hoped that Pang Li would act according to the circumstances, or at the very least, get rid of this despicable person, Tang Yin.
This was the complete contents of Di You's letter. After Pang Li read the message, she suddenly realized that no one had destroyed her message, and the reason why Brother Di died was entirely because he wanted to help her. He wanted to use her own death in exchange for her revenge.
Drip, drip!
Drops of tears fell onto the letter. Pang Li read the letter and unknowingly, began to shed tears like the rain. To be able to force such a resolute person to willingly die, just how much grief and anger did she feel? And just how much hatred and resentment did she feel?
After an unknown period of time, Pang Li finally regained her senses from her grief. Only now did she realise that the letter in her hand was completely drenched with her own tears.
She took out a fire piston and lit it several times but still failed to ignite the letter. In the end, she simply rolled it up into a ball and stuffed it into her mouth before swallowing it.2
When Pang Li returned to Wind Camp, it was as if she was a completely different person. She had reverted back to her usual flirtatious and charming appearance, with a seemingly flirtatious smile hanging on her pretty face.
From that moment onwards, she wrapped herself even tighter around Tang Yin, staying by his side almost all the time.
Although Tang Yin felt that Pang Li was too attached to others, he didn't hate her either. Mainly because of the matter with Di You, he had already developed a sense of trust in her.
The Xi Tang had been destroyed by the allied army. The capital's Li Clan, as well as all the civil and military officials, were all spared. The monarch had died, the imperial government had collapsed, and the entire Zhen Country had lost its leader.
First, he issued an imperial edict praising the achievements of the allied armies of the six nations, and then, he announced the abolition of the Zhen Country fiefdom, and divided all their territories into four parts, with Chuan, Mo, An and Huan the four countries in charge.
After Yin Zhun's declaration, the Zhen Country no longer existed in name.
At this point, the ferocious and fearsome Zhen Country from the Southwest, which had caused countless people to tremble with fear, was completely removed from the borders of the Haotian Empire. Under the pressure of the six nations' great armies, the tyrannical Zhen Country had only lasted for a few months.
The destruction of the Zhen Country certainly had something to do with the outer strength of a country. Li Hong's arrogance was also an important factor.
He thought that the Son of Heaven was useless, and the Imperial Court had declined, so he could take the place, thinking that once he took the lead, he would arouse the anger of the other nations, causing his military strength to be great and his nation's might to be insufficient, and Li Hong's actions had caused him to lose interest in the entire nation, becoming a traitor, causing his Zhen Country to quickly collapse, and causing him to be hanged on his own.
In the war on the extermination of chastity, the ones who benefited the most were undoubtedly the four nations, Chuan, Mo, An and Huan. After all, they divided up the huge amount of Zhen Country evenly among the four nations, increasing the territories of the four nations by several counties. However, their four countries were the most directly injured.
The Zhen Country that the four nations had occupied was in reality a bottomless pit. Not only did it make it difficult for the four nations to profit from it, they even had to invest a large amount of human and financial resources.
The rebellion of the People of Zhen Country was one of the headache-inducing problems, and the military invasion of the Western Powers was even more of a nightmare.
The harassment and invasion of the Western Pandas were originally just a matter of Zhen Country to be faced with, but Zhen Country had always been dealing with them well.
But now that the Zhen Country had been eliminated, the Zhen Country was divided into four, becoming Chuan Country, Mo Country, Ann Country, Huan Country.
In order to protect the empire's territorial integrity and face, the four nations that divided the Zhen Country could only continuously send out troops to protect the borders of the Zhen Country. Amongst them, Chuan Country was the one that was invested the most in the overall situation.
In the next few years, Zhen Country became a black hole that devoured all of the Chuan Country. The decline of Chuan Country started precisely from the time of the extermination of one's virginity, and of course, this was also something that Xiao Xuan did not expect.
In the war for the extermination of chastity, the two countries, which seemed to have no benefits at all, became the true beneficiaries. Not only had the two countries plundered a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry from the Zhen Country, they had also moved back to a large number of People of Zhen Country s from the Zhen Country.
Although there was no clear record of them, they were estimated to be at least three or four times the number of profound practitioners. In the future, there would be a large number of People of Zhen Country s who would continuously head north to search for their parents, seek shelter, and migrate to both Feng and Yu, causing the population of these two countries to greatly increase in a short period of time. This was especially true in the Feng Country, which levelled up the severely lacking in young and strong populations in an instant.
The annexation of eight counties of Ning Bei City by Feng Country had resulted in a qualitative change in national power. Strictly speaking, the annexation of five counties of Northern Mo had not only not increased the strength of the Feng Country, but had instead caused the consumption of the national power to increase. However, the battle of chastity had also caused another qualitative change in the national power of Feng Country.
In the era of cold weapons, the size of the population was an important measure of a country's strength and weakness.
The war that had lasted for several months was finally over. The alliance between the six nations automatically disbanded, and the alliance troops disbanded on the spot, each of them returning to their own country.
