The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 860: Tongwei Shuoyang
Chapter 860: Together with Wei Shuoyang
“Yang Wuce, listen to my orders!” Bai Qingyan’s eyes were calm. “You and General Liu Hong will lead 20,000 soldiers to Puwen City, Longyang City, Youhua City, Tianlan Mountain, Yushan Pass and all the way to the capital city. Never allow the government to forcibly conscript children! Anyone who disobeys… will be executed without mercy!”
“I obey your command!” Yang Wuce responded loudly with his fist clasped.
Bai Qingyan turned around and looked at Liu Hong, who was pursing his lips and saying nothing: “General Liu, do you have any questions?”
This man Liu Hong… Bai Qingyan didn’t want to be hostile to him, so he let him go and see for himself what the emperor had done… and see whether this emperor deserved his loyalty at the cost of his life. He just hoped that Liu Hong could wake up.
Liu Hong was trembling all over, knowing that the situation was on Bai Qingyan’s side.
Although he was the commander-in-chief of the expedition to Daliang, all strategies were planned by Bai Qingyan, and now that the war in Daliang is over, in terms of status… he has to listen to Bai Qingyan, and in terms of strength… he also has to listen to Bai Qingyan.
After thinking for a moment, he looked up at Bai Qingyan.
“Liu, I just want to ask the Princess Zhenguo one question…” Liu Hong’s eyes were red, and he looked at Bai Qingyan solemnly. He finally asked the question he wanted to ask but didn’t dare to ask, “Princess Zhenguo, do you want to rebel?”
Seeing Bai Qingyan’s stern expression and not in a hurry to defend himself, Liu Hong’s eyes became hot. Without waiting for Bai Qingyan to answer, he shouted loudly: “When we were in Longyang City, the Princess Zhenguo once told me that the people of the Bai family… are known to all nations for their loyalty and righteousness. The border people of Jin State were all protected by the Princess Zhenguo’s grandfather, father, and several generations of the Bai family army! So the Bai family will never rebel! They will not even seek personal gain when the country is in danger! But why does the Princess Zhenguo have no respect for the imperial power and majesty in her eyes now? Why?!”
“That day, Bai Qingyan told General Liu that the Bai family would never rebel! They would not seek personal gain when the country is in danger, because the Bai family is loyal to the people of Jin, and they are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect the people of Jin! The Bai family fought and killed for the sake of protecting the country and the people!”
When in Longyang City, the words that Bai Qingyan said to him gradually became clear in Liu Hong’s mind. Gradually, Liu Hong also understood what Bai Qingyan meant, and his feet kept staggering backwards.
“Those who protect the people… the Bai family will protect them! Those who protect the people for thousands of generations, the Bai family will protect them for thousands of generations! Those who harm the people… the Bai family should also protect the people, otherwise! Punish them!” Bai Qingyan, who was sitting on a tall horse, tightened the reins and took two steps forward, looking at the soldiers who were looking at her, and said in a sonorous voice, “Once, the Bai family and the Bai family army protected the Lin family from ascending to the supreme imperial power for the millions of people in Jin! Today, Bai Qingyan is raising an army to revolt for the people of Jin! Against the imperial power of the Lin family! It is to return the peaceful mountains and rivers to the people without worries, so that the people can live a peaceful life! No regrets in life or death! Bai Qingyan begs everyone today… to join hands with Bai Qingyan and support the people of the world together!”
Under the bright sun, the woman in silver armor truly revealed her murderous aura. It was a kind of… as long as she stood there, she could become the heart of the army, as long as she stood there, she could scare the enemy into submission.
Yang Wuce’s blood boiled at Bai Qingyan’s high-pitched voice. He knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and shouted, “I swear to follow the Princess Zhenguo until death!”
Lin Kangle and Yang Wei even dismounted, knelt on the ground and led the soldiers in shouting.
“I swear to follow the princess until death!”
“I swear to follow the princess until death!”
“I swear to follow the princess until death!”
Liu Hong looked at the soldiers who were kneeling on the ground and shouting, and he kept stepping back and staggered to the ground.

On the second day of May in the eighteenth year of Xuanjia, King Liang sent Li Mingrui with 10,000 soldiers to Shuoyang, with secret orders to capture the Bai family alive, on the grounds that Shuoyang refused to hand over 100 boys and girls.
On the third day of May in the eighteenth year of Xuanjia, Mrs. Qin, Bai Jinxiu, held the emperor’s handwritten imperial edict and led the Yuanping army to attack the capital city to defend the king. The prince in prison was excited when he heard the news.
On the fifth day of the fifth month of the eighteenth year of Xuanjia, Li Mingrui led a large army to Shuoyang and attacked the city.
Li Mingrui was wearing armor and riding on a horse, looking at the soldiers who were constantly attacking the city, gritting his teeth. He knew that Bai Jinxiu had already led the Yuanping army to attack the capital city, but he did not turn around to provide assistance, but chose to attack Shuoyang!
He set a goal for himself that he must capture Shuoyang within three days so that he could keep all the members of the Bai family under his control and control Bai Qingyan to the greatest extent possible.
More importantly… by controlling the Bai family, Bai Jinxiu would not dare to attack the capital city again. He might even have a chance to obtain the emperor’s handwritten edict from Bai Jinxiu. In this way, he would have a handle on King Liang, which would be good for the future of the Li family.
After thinking about all this, Li Mingrui became more determined to attack Shuoyang.
The Dong family in Shuoyang City had already begun to prepare for such a day. When Li Mingrui led his troops to attack, they asked Bai Qingping to pass on the order to defend Shuoyang City to the death.
Shuoyang has enough food in stock to last until Bai Qingyan leads his troops back for support.
People from all over Shuoyang City, from those who could walk and run to the elderly with white hair, gathered in Shuoyang City to help carry stones to the top of the city wall so that the soldiers could smash and kill the enemy troops climbing up the wall.
The people of Shuoyang all knew that the imperial court sent troops to attack Shuoyang this time in order to take their children. If it were not for the eldest lady of the Bai family, Mrs. Dong, who held down Governor Zhou and prevented him from handing over the children of Shuoyang to the imperial court, their children would have died.
That day, Governor Zhou showed the decree to Mrs. Bai Dong, saying that if it was not handed in, the people of Shuoyang would suffer.
Just when the people of Shuoyang were panicking and some were even trying to flee with their children, Mrs. Bai Dong made a prompt decision to gather the people of Shuoyang and made an impassioned speech, saying… The Shuoyang Bai family and the Bai Family Army originated from Shuoyang. Hundreds of years ago, the Bai Family Army was established to protect the people. Now the royal family is tyrannical and treats the people as grass and livestock. The Bai family and the Shuoyang Army will also uphold the will of the Bai family ancestors and fight to protect the people. They will not take off their armor until they die in battle! No child in Shuoyang will be sent to the Nine-Layered Terrace, and no one will be allowed to use the life of any child to refine elixirs for the emperor.
Dong’s words made the people of the city burst into tears of gratitude and the soldiers of the city were excited.
Therefore, in this war, no one in Shuoyang City chose to flee before the war came. Those who had money contributed money, and those who had strength contributed strength, and together they resisted the enemy.
This is the most united people in Shuoyang in the past hundred years. Neighbors have put aside their past conflicts and worked together to defend Shuoyang.
The Bai family guards were once the Bai family soldiers. At this time, they had already rushed onto the city wall and led the Shuoyang soldiers to fight the enemy.
On the tower of Shuoyang City, a black sail and white python flag were hoisted high. In Dong’s words, that was… all the soldiers who fought to protect the people of Shuoyang today were the invincible Bai family army! The heroic spirits of the Bai family… would protect every soldier who fought for the people!
