Chapter 1070: Ruling the Country with an Iron Fist
The black sail and white python flag of the Great Zhou fluttered in the cold wind that was covered with white snow. Behind the masked man was the endless mass of black-armored cavalry of the Great Zhou. They were mighty and powerful, like a giant beast that had awakened from the wind and snow and slowly stood up, revealing its claws and fangs. No one dared to go against its edge.
Sar Khan clenched his fists and raised his chin slightly to look at the black line that suddenly appeared on the horizon. In the wind and snow, he seemed to hear the uniform steps of the Great Zhou army. He didn’t know what the Great Zhou meant by this, and his heart suddenly hung in his throat.
Although today is the alliance of the four countries, there is no guarantee that the Great Zhou and Yan will not join forces and wait for an opportunity to launch an attack.
Such wind and snow are not conducive to the elephant army’s combat. The elephants are afraid of the cold and have never experienced fighting in wind and snow, so they may not cooperate.
“Prepare for battle!” Sar Khan shouted.
Without waiting for the soldiers around Sar Khan to go and pass on the order, Sar Khan saw the man leading the troops in the front raise his hand, and tens of thousands of soldiers stood still in an instant, like black stones in the wind, their movements were exactly the same.
Sar Khan called out to the soldiers who were about to go and give orders to prepare for battle, and said with a deep look in his eyes: “Pass the order, prepare for battle quietly in case of any unexpected events.”
“Yes!” The soldier hurriedly trotted to pass on the order.
The Great Zhou is…well prepared!
Sar Khan clenched his fists. He had read “General History of Great Yan”, “History of Jin” and “Political History of Western Liang”. He knew that in this land, whenever there was an alliance between countries, the soldiers had to cease fighting. This was the most basic moral principle.
But now, the Great Zhou came with a large army, which forced Sar Khan to be on guard, even though their elephant army was also lurking not far away.
Soon, a massive and overwhelming number of heavily armored cavalry appeared in the west, with the black bird and blue sparrow flags of the Great Yan fluttering in the wind. General Xie Xun of the Yan State led his army out. The army was like a black tide and stopped not far away. It was magnificent and breathtaking.
It was an alliance of four countries, but it was not quite the same as what Sar Khan had thought, nor was it exactly the same as what was recorded in history.
Nations would form alliances and monarchs would lead troops, but never before had…the armies been so close.
It seemed like in an instant, Sar Khan felt the pressure coming towards him. The Great Zhou…the Great Yan, seemed not easy to deal with.
Sar Khan still wanted to take the lead, so he ordered the cavalry around him: “Send a few people to both sides to invite the emperors of Da Zhou and Da Yan to enter the tent and tell them… it’s warm in the tent.”
The two cavalry teams followed the order and galloped towards the west and north. Sar Khan turned to look at the disciple of the Great Wizard and said to him: “Looking at the situation today, I think it won’t happen again. You must see clearly… Which emperor of Great Yan or Great Zhou is the master of this land.”
The Great Wizard’s disciple hurriedly saluted Sar Khan respectfully: “Your Majesty, don’t worry! But… even if we see it today, looking at the posture of the Great Zhou and Yan leading their troops, I’m afraid it’s not easy to take action!”
“It doesn’t matter if we can’t take action today. The most important thing is to know who it is, so that we can make preparations in the future!” said Sar Khan.
After Li Tianfu had her eyebrows drawn and dressed up, she walked out of the tent wearing a fiery red fox fur cloak and walked towards the alliance tent. She saw Sar Khan standing outside the tent waiting for Bai Qingyan and the little emperor of Yan. She walked straight into the tent where the brazier was burning very brightly.
Many of the guards around Sar Khan were indignant. Li Tianfu was helped to the throne by the monarch of their Tianfeng Kingdom. If it weren’t for their Majesty… Li Tianfu would still be locked up in that dark place and couldn’t get out! He even dared to be rude to their Majesty.
Sar Khan said to the captain of the guard beside him: “You are with Li Tianfu today, don’t let her make any unusual moves and disrupt today’s alliance.”
Li Tianfu is a lunatic. She is a crazy woman who is willing to drag the entire Xiliang for revenge for a man. Sar Khan wants to use her… but also has to be on guard against her doing bad things.
Soon, Bai Qingyan’s luxurious eight-horse carriage, escorted by a thousand black-armored cavalrymen, slowly arrived. Bai Qingyu, Bai Jinzhi, and Shen Qingzhu guarded the left and right, while Shen Kunyang stayed behind to prevent any accidents…
Murong Yan and Murong Li’s exquisite elm wood carriage with painted wheels also arrived at the gate of the camp under the protection of a thousand elite soldiers and Xie Xun.
The disciple of the great witch of Tianfeng Kingdom came forward to greet them. Sar Khan stood in front of the door of the big tent, looking at the carriage of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which had left 500 cavalrymen outside the camp and was leading 500 elite soldiers towards the big tent, and the carriage of the emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty, which also had left 500 elite soldiers outside the camp and was leading 500 elite soldiers into the camp.
The carriage stopped, and the soldiers of the Great Zhou protected Liu Rushi, Shen Jingzhong, and Shen Tianzhi as they got off the carriage.
They gathered their cloaks together and saw that Xie Yuchang and his men were guarding outside the camp, while Yang Wuce, Bai Qingyu and Bai Jinzhi were guarding Bai Qingyan’s carriage. Only then did they feel relieved.
The Great Zhou Emperor’s carriage stopped in front of the big tent. Shen Qingzhu jumped off the horse and saw Bai Jinzhi had already boarded Bai Qingyan’s carriage. She helped Bai Qingyan out of the carriage. She looked coldly at the king of Tianfeng…
Today, who knows what kind of danger they might encounter, so Bai Qingyan did not bring Chunzhi with him, in order to prevent Chunzhi, who does not even have the ability to protect herself, from getting into danger if something unexpected happens.
The tall and upright Sar Khan stood in front of the big tent, looking at the Empress of the Great Zhou who bent down and walked out of the carriage, with a seemingly pure and gentle smile on the corners of his eyes and brows. He took two steps forward, acting like a complete host.
But when Bai Qingyan stood up and looked at him with his calm eyes, which were clearly black and white, he paused.
Sar Khan had heard rumors about the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but he thought that these were just ignorant people’s words of praise for their own emperor. After all, the victors are kings and the losers are bandits, and those who write history will always glorify those in power.
He believed that true beauties were all brought up in pampering, like his wives and concubines, who were as delicate as flowers. And this Li Tianfu… Even though she had martial arts skills, she was still a delicate flower after all.
Therefore, in Sar Khan’s heart, the Queen of the Great Zhou, who is known as the God of Death… and a woman who can rule the country with an iron fist, may be heroic, but she will not be as beautiful as the rumors say.
But when he suddenly saw the Emperor of the Great Zhou, he was shocked by her beauty, her beauty was pure and beautiful, and her pair of black and white eyes… calm and restrained, clearly a strong and powerful person, which caught Sar Khan off guard.
At this moment, Sar Khan admitted that beautiful and powerful… were the most appropriate descriptions for the Empress of the Great Zhou.
She is beautiful, but so beautiful that no one dares to look down on her or have any blasphemous thoughts about her.
Everyone loves beauty, and Sar Khan is no exception. Every man is interested in beautiful women, provided… that the woman is not hostile to her own country.
Sar Khan admired the beauty of the Emperor of the Great Zhou, which he had never seen before, but he was not a person who would be blinded by lust.
