Three days later, Yao Qixuan's troops set off for Gulan City

In the past three days, Qin Yu also became familiar with the situation of this personal guard.

This team currently has a total of twenty-one people, and is personally commanded by Yao Qixuan, with He Dinghai as deputy commander.

The cultivation level of all the soldiers is above the Tianwu realm, with the exception of Qin Yu

At first, some other soldiers questioned whether Qin Yu was someone from a related family, and insisted on quarreling with Qin Yu.

In the end, Qin Yu silenced all these people with his fists.

He Dinghai always stared at Qin Yu at first, worried that something was wrong with him, but Qin Yu behaved very normally and did whatever he was told without asking anything.

After leaving Pingdu Town, their team is expected to arrive at Gulan City within two weeks.

He Dinghai asked Yao Qixuan if he wanted him to fly over with the personal troops first. Yao Qixuan said that he did not need to. This mission was of great importance and he was not in a hurry and allowed the personal troops to move forward with the main force.

Along the way, they kept marching at a constant speed and encountered many marching teams.

Qin Yu felt a little curious and secretly sent a message to Bu Feng: "Brother Bu, why are there so many marching teams on this road? Is there another war somewhere?"

Bu Feng told him that peasant uprisings have broken out in many places recently, and armies from all over the country are everywhere to suppress the uprisings.

Qin Yu asked again if Princess Zetian planned it? Bu Feng smiled and said no, it was because the empire wanted to expand the war against the White Feather Kingdom and the Dragon Empire.

Expanding the war means the need for more troops and military expenditures. Therefore, various exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes have been increased again and again, as well as compulsory military service.

When people have no way to survive, they will choose to rebel

Then Bu Feng said: "Princess Zetian not only did not incite the people to revolt, but also persuaded many uprising leaders not to revolt for the time being."

"Now is not the best time. Blind rebellion will only lead to the loss of lives."

"When the right time comes, His Highness will raise the banner. When the time comes, everyone will respond. That will be the best time."

After entering Gulan Prefecture, where Gulan City is located, the team passed by a village and encountered a group of soldiers robbing people of their property and even killing people who tried to stop them.

Qin Yu was angry and was about to rush out to stop him. He Dinghai sternly said: "Qin Hao! What are you doing!"

Qin Yu held back his anger and said, "Master He, can't you see those soldiers killing innocent people indiscriminately?"

He Dinghai: "I saw it, but it has nothing to do with us!"

Qin Yu: "Aren't they citizens of the empire? As soldiers of the empire, shouldn't we protect them?"

He Dinghai said with an unknown meaning: "Qin Hao, remember, they are the people of Hu Yanlie, the governor of Gulanzhou, and we are the soldiers of King Kang's Xiping Army!"

Qin Yu was speechless. He Dinghai's meaning was very clear. This is not their Xiping Prefecture. Don't mind your own business.

Bu Feng quickly sent a message: "Master Qin, calm down."

Qin Yu asked: "Do you really want to watch those bandits massacre unarmed people?"

Bu Feng said in a low tone: "I also want to save them, but we have more important things and we can't cause trouble here."

Qin Yu also understood that he forced himself not to look, but it seemed as if there was a huge stone pressing on his chest and he couldn't breathe.

At night, the troops choose to camp first and leave at dawn the next day. They are easily attacked by monsters at night. If someone gets separated and lost, it will be troublesome to find them.

At the third watch of the night, Qin Yu gathered all his breath and sneaked out of the tent.

Following the path we came from, we returned to the village we passed today and stood at the entrance of the village and looked

Most of the people in the village were killed or injured, and the bodies were piled in the open space in the center of the village. The rest had already fled.

Next to it, there are traces of the group of soldiers enjoying the livestock and grain they looted during the day.

Qin Yu also heard the screams of women coming from the houses in the village. He clasped his knuckles tightly, and all the spiritual power in his body burst out uncontrollably.

The soldiers in the village were startled by the strong aura. They thought there was an enemy attack and came out to check the situation.

Although Qin Yu was powerful, seeing that he was wearing the armor of the Xiping Army, the soldiers felt a little at ease.

One of them said respectfully: "My lord, are you looking for a team? During the day, I saw a team of the Xiping Army moving forward."

Qin Yu said coldly: "Call out all your people."

The man hesitated and said, "What do you mean, sir?"

Qin Yu: "Hurry up!"

The man gritted his teeth and said: "Your Excellency is not our superior and has no right to command us!"

Qin Yu said no more and walked directly past him, but the man was about to turn his head and look at Qin Yu subconsciously.

Unexpectedly, green flames ignited on his body, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"" A burst of screams sounded like ghosts and wolves.

In a few breaths, all that was left of the man was a pile of black ash, blown into the air by the wind.

The soldiers behind were all frightened when they saw this scene. They looked at Qin Yu who was approaching and didn't even react at all.

Then they were swallowed up by the green fire one after another until there was no one alive outside.

About twenty people were all burned to ashes alive.

Qin Yu released his consciousness and found that several people had escaped and was about to chase them.

A strong aura appeared and stopped the escaping soldiers. Qin Yu showed a smile and returned to the center of the village.

After a while, a figure landed and threw several heads to the ground.

Qin Yu looked at him and smiled: "Brother Bu, you can't stand it just like me."

Bu Feng in front of him also smiled and said: "I can't help it, I can't bear to see this garbage harming the people."

Then he looked around and said, "Why don't you see anyone else? You have dealt with them all?"

Qin Yu: "Well, it's all burned to ashes, so naturally you can't see it."

Bu Feng nodded and said, "Then let's go back."

The two of them quietly sneaked back into the temporary military camp.

The next day, the two of them pretended that nothing happened and continued to march with the team.

Because Gulanzhou is located in the barren northwest area of ​​the empire, it is sparsely populated and has a vast territory.

After they walked in Gulanzhou for a day, Yao Qixuan got a group of mounts from nowhere.

All ordinary soldiers rode horses, but he and his bodyguards rode a local monster, the wasteland rhinoceros.

The armored Wasteland Rhino is very powerful, and more than twenty soldiers riding on the Wasteland Rhino are walking arrogantly at the front of the team.

The previous journey was mostly due to mountain roads, and horses were not good at walking on mountain roads and had limited physical strength. However, they were all warriors and had abundant physical strength, so riding horses was not as fast as walking.

But now that we have entered a large wilderness area, riding a mount can save some energy and the speed will not slow down.

After changing into mounts, the momentum of the entire team immediately increased.

The civilians and caravans encountered on the road were very afraid of this army and hid far away.

Even a team of soldiers will take the initiative to give way when encountering them, because at first glance, this group of people looks like an elite soldier and is not someone to be trifled with.

In this way, after entering Gulan Prefecture, it took nearly ten days to reach Gulan City, which is enough to show its huge area.

From a distance, Qin Yu saw a majestic city standing on the horizon. On the endless plain, this city seemed to be a heavenly official, shocking everyone in the world.

After getting closer, Qin Yu finally saw its entirety. The city wall alone was twenty meters high, with various military equipment and flags erected on it.

Qin Yu estimated that Guangcheng District would be at least as big as three Black Iron Cities! What's more, there are large areas of suburbs outside the city.

No wonder this is the most important town in the northwest. Almost the entire center of the northwest is concentrated here.

Of course, this is also related to the low value of land resources in Gulan Prefecture. Anyway, there is plenty of land, so every house is built larger, and slowly the whole city expands very much.

Before entering the city, He Dinghai ordered the team to stop. This is Hu Yanlie's territory. Their troops must not enter the city casually.

He followed Yao Qixuan and went forward alone, showing the handwriting of King Kang to the guards.

The guard said respectfully: "Commander Yao, please wait a moment. I will go and report right away." After that, he turned around and ran away quickly.

After a while, a man wearing general armor followed the guard out, walked up to Yao Qixuan and saluted: "Hello, Commander Yao, I am the guerrilla general Zheng Xingxiu under the command of Governor Huyan."

Yao Qixuan returned the greeting: "Hello, General Zheng. In the name of Prince Kang, I am here to escort the prisoners. This is my army. We are going into the city now."

Zheng Xingxiu said in a dilemma: "Commander Yao may not know that Governor Huyan was assassinated a few days ago, so the entire city is now under martial law. I'm afraid so many of you will enter..."

Yao Qixuan was also surprised when he heard this, and shouted anxiously: "What! Governor Huyan was assassinated?"
