Imperial Palace of the Xia.

Inside and outside of the palace, under the carved beams and painted rafters, there was an eerie silence.

The stern-faced Imperial Guards lined up in two rows on either side of the palace gates, extending through the front hall and up to the door of the Golden Dragon Palace.

The Imperial Guards at the door of the Golden Dragon Palace still looked a bit tense.

Who knows what they were afraid of.

“Bastards!”

“My Xia Country’s two hundred thousand soliders can’t even hold back the six thousand wolf cavalry of an Alien tribe?!”

An angry shout erupted from within the Golden Dragon Palace.

Yu Yunping, the young New Emperor, sat on the Dragon Chair, pointing at the civil and martial ministers below and scolding them.

At these words, all the ministers grew silent, like cicadas in the cold.

They all remained silent.

It was like being scolded by a teacher for not doing your homework properly.

Seeing their reaction, Yu Yunping knew that his anger was futile and that there was no point in venting. Defeat was defeat.

He considered himself to be a gentle person, but after hearing the news, he couldn’t help but curse out.

Just an hour ago, news from the North came.

The Northern Wolf Empire sent sixty thousand wolf cavalry to charge southwards, their forces unstoppable, piercing through the Northern Army stationed at the border.

As Xia’s forces were dispersed, they could not organize effective resistance, and the approaching Northern Wolf Army broke through one after another.

All twelve states of the North, led by Danzhou and Mozhou, were defeated and fell into the hands of the Northern Wolf Empire. Xia completely lost control of these twelve states.

“Twelve states!”

Yu Yunping’s eyes revealed disbelief.

After venting his anger, he leaned back against the golden Dragon Chair, mumbling to himself:

“Not just a county or two, but twelve states in all!” “Do you want me to be an eternal sinner?”

Yu Yunping clenched his fists, his face ashen.

What’s worse, with the loss of the twelve states in the North, the Northern Wolf Empire was now just a single pass away from the Xia’s Capital!

If the enemy broke through the pass and moved southward, eight hundred miles of plain would be wide open for them to advance, their iron cavalry pointed directly at the capital of Xia!

“Your Majesty, the most important thing right now is to summon the army from all over the country to come to the capital and defend against the approaching Foreign Army.”

Below, a minister in a vermilion official robe, holding a tablet, advised.

He appeared to be a high-ranking official in the Imperial Court.

“Indeed, with the North broken, all that remains is Shanhai Pass.” A military officer next to him immediately joined in.

If Shanhai Pass were to fall as well, Xia would be truly finished.

Thinking about it, Yu Yunping also realized the importance of gathering the army for defense.

“Issue my decree: call upon the elite generals from the south, the Western Edge, and Guanzhong to come to the capital for defense, leaving a portion of the troops to garrison the states and counties.”

Even in such an emergency, he could not leave the army completely empty.

He hadn’t forgotten that there was still the remnants of Yan Country in the south, which he must guard against.

The saying goes: to keep the home front safe while repelling foreign enemies.

However, despite the clearing out that had been going on for a while, he hadn’t found any trace of Yan Country’s former department. The imperial envoys he had dispatched had visited every state government, but had found no trace of them.

Right now, the Northern Wolf Empire’s southward advance was like a burning fire attached to their eyebrows.

If they can’t deal with this crisis, they really might lose their country!

How could he, the Emperor of Xia, allow it to perish in its second generation?

Xia could not fall in his hands like this.

He had ascended to the throne as the second son, after removing his older brother and outlasting his father.

He had gained everything he had now, and how could it all be destroyed by a mere Alien tribe?

Yu Yunping thought of the current situation and couldn’t help but think of a person. fre(e)novelkiss

His little sister, Yu Qinghan.

As of now, the Xia Imperial Court had undergone a drastic change, and one group of civil and military ministers had been replaced by another, but none of them met his expectations.

The leading generals in the regions had all been dismissed from their posts by him.

On one hand, it was to prevent them from rebelling.

On the other hand, compared to his little sister, all these people were truly a

group of mediocrities.

No matter what, Yu Qinghan had been the founding General of Xia and the God of Army at that time.

If his little sister were still alive, she might have easily resolved the situation in the face of the impending Alien threat, right?

But back then, when the capital was in chaos, the White-robed Ghost Face had been too treacherous, leaving him no time to attend to his sister in the dungeon.

As a result, a fire had later erupted in the dungeon.

His sister, who had been sealed off from her cultivation, had died there as well.

He had seen her charred corpse with his own eyes.

Not long ago, he sent someone to Jinzhou, where the once bustling area was now empty.

Logically, he should have been relieved, but somehow, he always felt that Yu Qinghan was not dead.

He didn’t believe that a mere fire could burn her to death.

Maybe she was still alive and well?

“Your Majesty, for this battle, we must make thorough preparations. In addition to summoning the army for defense, we can also choose a secondary capital in the south in case we are defeated and need a fallback.”

A civil official in a green robe carefully advised, his eyes darting as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Yu Yunping’s eyes became extremely dark, and he shouted in anger:

“Guards! Drag him away and execute him!”

As he spoke, the tall Imperial Guard by the door immediately walked in. f(r)eenovelkiss.com

“Your Majesty! I deserve to die, I was wrong!”

“Your Majesty!”

The green-robed civil official’s face changed drastically, and he quickly admitted his mistake, his voice trembling with fear.

The surrounding ministers also followed suit, pleading one after another.

“Your Majesty, Minister Chen’s words are indeed inappropriate, but he speaks out of concern for you!”

“Yes, just spare him. Stripping him of his rank and position is punishment enough, but his crime doesn’t warrant death!” “Don’t let the people of the world laugh at us if this gets out.”

Yu Yunping remained unmoved, his voice cold:

“Considering retreat before even fighting, this is your way of being an official for me?”

Glaring at the Imperial Guard, he barked:

“What are you waiting for? Execute him!”

The tall Imperial Guard took the order, and his iron hands, like pliers, held the green-robed civil official’s left and right hands, dragging him out of the palace..
