The waste prince is so fierce

Li Quan also began to deal with post-war affairs.

He knew that although the war was won, the price paid was huge.

The most important thing now is to calm the people and stabilize the situation as quickly as possible, and to strengthen the city’s defenses to prevent foreign enemies from invading again.

If you want to stabilize the border, then expanding the military is imperative.

In Dakang, you can't expand your military forces just because you want to. First of all, you need to have the will.

Thinking of this, Li Quan picked up his pen, wrote a memorial, and ordered someone to send it to Kyoto as soon as possible.

In the memorial, Li Quan described in detail the course and results of the war, and emphasized the importance of strengthening the military.

He wrote:

Although the war was won, the remnants of the Wanyan tribe are still a potential threat. In order to protect the border security and ensure the stability of Jiangning City, I beg Fu Ahhun to approve the expansion of troops to strengthen the border defense.

After the memorial was submitted, Li Quan began to work on the reconstruction of the city.

He knew that the war had brought great damage to Jiangning City, many people were displaced and their homes were destroyed. In order to allow the people to return to normal life as soon as possible, he had to organize manpower to rebuild as soon as possible.

At the same time, Li Quan was also thinking about how to obtain more information from Wanyan Zongbing.

He knew that Wanyan Zongbing was a tough opponent, but he also believed that as long as he used the right method, he would be able to pry open his mouth.

Wanyan Zongbing was imprisoned in a cell, and Li Quan was not in a hurry to interrogate him.

Instead, let him taste the feeling of losing his freedom first.

A few days later, Li Quan came to the cell to visit Wanyan Zongbing again. He saw that although Wanyan Zongbing looked pale, his eyes still revealed an unyielding light.

Li Quan smiled and said, "Wanyan Zongbi, how do you feel now?"

Wanyan Zongbing snorted coldly and turned his head away without looking at Li Quan.

Li Quan was not angry, but continued: "Do you think I can't do anything to you if you don't speak? I tell you, I have plenty of time to waste with you."

After saying that, he turned and left the cell.

He knew that it was not easy to get Wanyan Zongbing to speak, but he was confident that he could make Wanyan Zongbing surrender in the end.

"Your Highness, I heard that you are planning to send someone to monitor Wanyan Zongbing, the leader of the Wanyan tribe?"

As soon as he walked out of the cell, a guard immediately reported to Li Quan.

"Ah."

Li Quan nodded and ordered: "Send a small team to the grassland to inquire about the news of the Wanyan tribe. Once there is news, inform us as soon as possible."

"As ordered."

The guard responded and then retreated.

……

As night fell, a patrol team quietly left the city gate tower and headed straight for the grassland.

They were responsible for collecting news from the grasslands and also for finding out about the situation of the Wanyan tribe. If Wanyan Zongbing's tribesmen showed signs of escaping or rebelling, they would promptly notify Li Quan and others.

"Whoosh-"

Suddenly, a cold light flashed and flew towards the patrol team.

"Pfft!"

The cold light penetrated the chest of the guard, then passed through the back of another guard, bringing out a stream of blood.

After the two guards fell to the ground, the remaining soldiers immediately went on alert.

"There are assassins!"

"There are assassins attacking the camp, everyone be careful and protect His Highness!"

The soldiers raised their swords and looked around nervously, looking for any trace of the attacker.

Soon, a group of people in black appeared in front of everyone. There were more than thirty of them, each holding a shining steel knife in his hand. They were obviously here to kill people.

Seeing this, the men in black rushed over without hesitation.

"Fire arrows!"

"Shhhhh-"

Bows and crossbows were fired at the same time, and several men in black fell down immediately.

Seeing this, the man in black immediately changed his target of attack and cut down a thick wooden pillar.

"Crack!"

The wooden pillar broke and hit a guard, knocking him to the ground.

"kill!"

The men in black took the opportunity to rush into the camp.

At this time, other soldiers had already rushed up.

"boom!"

The man in black swung the steel knife in his hand and chopped at a soldier's neck, cutting his throat in an instant.

The soldier covered his neck and fell to the ground, struggling in pain.

The man in black did not stop and continued to swing the steel knife in his hand, reaping lives.

The man in black was very ferocious and took care of five or six soldiers in the blink of an eye.

However, other soldiers also rushed up, and the men in black were outnumbered and suffered seven or eight casualties.

At this moment, a long spear stabbed over and directly pierced through the body of the man in black.

The man in black groaned, his eyes widened, and then he slowly knelt on the ground. He did not close his eyes until his death, staring at the soldier in the distance, as if to ask: Why are there reinforcements coming to rescue?

The soldier showed a cruel smile on his face and snorted, "Because my name is Han Zhongye! I am here to rescue you on the orders of His Highness."

The soldier drew the sword from his waist and stabbed it hard into the black-clad man's head.

"Clap!"

The man in black fell to the ground with his head pierced.

After seeing this scene, the remaining men in black were so scared that they quickly ran away, but they didn't expect that the Jinyiwei who had been ambushing in the dark would rush out and quickly kill them.

"Who are these people? Why do they want to assassinate us?"

"I don't know. Is it possible that they are from the grassland?"

"It's possible! Judging from their attire, they are most likely a new tribe on the grassland."

"You mean... there is a new tribe on the grassland that is secretly annexing other tribes? This is a new discovery. No, we must inform His Highness as soon as possible."

"Okay, go report to His Highness. I'll go check the bodies of these people."

"it is good!"

The rest of the people took action on their own and quickly dealt with the twelve bodies.

......

"You mean, there is a tribe on this grassland whose name is still unknown, and it is quietly annexing other tribes?"

Li Quan frowned tightly and said to the soldier in front of him.

"Correct!"

The soldier answered affirmatively.

Li Quan was silent for a moment, then said, "Send more people immediately to find out the details of that mysterious tribe."

"Yes!" the soldier responded and immediately turned and left.

Li Quan stood outside the tent, looking at the pitch-black grassland in the distance, and muttered to himself: "I hope you won't become a stumbling block to me, otherwise, you will surely die."

……

Deep in the grassland, a huge cavalry was galloping across the grassland.

The cavalry on horseback were tall and strong, fully armed, and wielded scimitars, crossbows, and short swords.

At the front of the cavalry, a young man was galloping on his horse. His eyes were sharp and wild, and he exuded a strong sense of danger, like a cheetah.

He is Nakiya.

The first Baturu of the Nagi tribe.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there were bursts of roars coming from the front.

"What's going on?" Na Qiye pulled the reins and looked forward.

Suddenly, flames rose up in front of me, burning fiercely, reflecting the scene in the dark night.
