This army was small in number, but they were well-equipped and well-trained.
It was also their arrival that had forcefully given the West Garrison Fortress, which was on the verge of collapse, a breath of life, and allowed it to persevere again.
After receiving the news, the entire Great Zhou turned their heads. Everyone was very interested in the origins of this mysterious army that had suddenly appeared.
However, the situation in front of them was very tense, and all the places were in a state of preparation for war. It was difficult for spies to move at the moment, so they could not investigate the origin of this mysterious army in the first place.
However, before the Great Zhou could completely recover.
For some reason, the Qin army, which had been attacking cities and seizing territory in the north, suddenly stopped attacking.
This had caught countless people off guard. Taking advantage of this short window of time, the Starmoon Troop, which had gathered in various towns in the North, suddenly withdrew from the North on a large scale.
Many soldiers of the Northern Battlefront Army followed them out of the city.
At the same time, the Star Moon Army and a part of the Northern Battlefront Army sent a shocking announcement to the entire northwest.
“I have heard that the mission of the army is to be loyal to the country, and I have heard that the fate of soldiers is to die on the battlefield. However, I have never heard that the officials and the monarch are indifferent when they see millions of people about to fall into the abyss of suffering!”
“As the old saying goes, if the ruler sees his subjects as his hands and feet, then the subjects will see the ruler as their confidant. If the monarch treats his courtiers like dogs and horses, then the courtiers treat the monarch like their countrymen. If the monarch treats his subjects like dirt, the subjects will treat the monarch like enemies.”
Right now, the imperial court wants to use the Star Moon Army, the Northern Army, and the Western Army to fight against the entire thirty-two states of the Qin country. We are willing but unable to do so. We have repeatedly requested for reinforcements from the imperial court, but the imperial court and the Emperor of Zhou have witnessed the tens of millions of people and millions of troops in the northwest fight to the death with the Qin army without sending a single soldier…”
“Such a country that is hated by both men and gods, and punished by the heavens and the earth, such a heartless monarch who has no eyes for his people…They were not worthy of the loyalty of millions of troops at the border, nor were they worthy of the tax offerings of tens of millions of people in the northwest!”
“The north is about to become the battlefield of a large-scale attack by the Qin army. We pity our fellow brothers and sisters and will open a path for everyone to escape to the western border. As long as the Western Garrison Army and the Star and Moon Army are here, the Human Emperor Pass in the desert of the western border will never be broken!”
After this news spread.
The Star Moon Army and a small portion of the Northern Battlefront Army began to retreat from the northern battlefield in an orderly manner.
Five of the twelve cities in the north had been occupied by the Qin army, and 50% of the remaining seven cities had been evacuated.
You Aotian had already mentally prepared himself for this day.
He was a pure soldier and a traditional soldier.
The honor in his heart made it impossible for You Aotian to accept surrendering without a fight.
Therefore, when Li Yueming came to find him, You Aotian was very free and easy. He said that the soldiers of the Northern Battlefront Army who were willing to leave could leave with the Star Moon Army, but he would not leave the Northern Region that he had guarded for his entire life.
He had lived for most of his life, and he had also lived for most of his life.
He didn’t want to walk to the end and lose his backbone as a warrior.
Northern Lands, North City.
Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar disciple in front of him, You Aotian’s expression was rather complicated. He sighed and said with relief,” My staying here doesn’t mean that what you did was wrong. In fact, there are many times when there is no right or wrong in many things. It is the Northlanders ‘luck, and also my luck, that you can find a way for the Northlanders to survive…”
“In my life, other than brandishing knives and spears, the most fortunate thing is that I was able to nurture outstanding disciples like you in my later years! Go. I hope you can treat the Northern Battlefront Army and the millions of people in the north well!”
“I will stay here and stand guard for the Northlands!”
Li Yueming was silent for a long time. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
He turned around and left silently.
The news spread very quickly. contemporary romance
After receiving the declaration, the Northlanders hesitated for a moment.
Between the Imperial Court and the Starmoon Army, they ultimately chose the Starmoon Army.
After so many years, the Starmoon Army had already built a good political reputation in the North. Compared to the imperial court, which did not treat them as humans, the Starmoon Army, which had protected them for decades, was clearly more trustworthy.
Thus, many people packed up their belongings and moved to the western frontier under the guidance of the Star Moon Army.
This news spread to Haojing.
In his rage, the emperor smashed half of the palace with a slap and roared,””Li Yueming, this vile beast, I have treated you well. I didn’t expect you to be an ungrateful wolf!”
Although the Star Moon Army’s actions were not explicitly stated, they had already completely chosen to betray the Great Zhou.
He had predicted that the Western Garrison Army would not surrender.
However, he did not expect the Star Moon Army to stand up and stab the Great Zhou at such a critical moment.
What puzzled the emperor the most was that the main battlefield between the Qin army and the Great Zhou army was in the western border. There were only 300,000 Qin troops in the north. Although the Star Moon Army and the Northern Army were under great pressure to deal with the 300,000 Qin troops, it was not to the point where they had to raise their hands and surrender, right?
However, the emperor soon knew why Li Yueming wanted to leave the north.
Originally, he was still thinking about how to punish Li Yueming for his betrayal.
If he didn’t catch him and pull out his skin and pull out his tendons, lighting the sky lantern, it wouldn’t be enough to satisfy his hatred..
