Chapter 1589

Lady Li chased until Gao Yang disappeared from her line of sight; only then did she stop, but her eyes remained fixed on the direction Gao Yang had left.

A mother worries when her child travels a thousand miles; the worry in Lady Li's eyes almost overflowed…

Gao Yang heard it, but he did not stop.

He was afraid he would develop a cowardly heart and want to stay.

Yet these words were deeply carved into his heart.

Gao Yang took a deep breath, his eyes firm.

For his family, for Shangguan Wan'er, for everything he wanted to protect—one punch to open the way, to avoid a hundred punches later, to thoroughly eliminate these hidden dangers!

If anyone wanted to destroy this good life, then he would exterminate their three clans and wipe out their entire family!

"…"

Outside Changancheng.

The Northern Camp.

Inside the drill ground.

Gao Yang stood on the high platform, overlooking the three hundred death-row prisoners below, as well as his previous eight hundred elites, his eyes murderous, his whole body permeated with an aura of disdain.

Today, he would take these one thousand one hundred men to Yanmen Pass, where there were tens of thousands of elites mobilized by Wu Zhao waiting for orders, and then… launch a surprise attack on the Xiongnu!

Pu Duo stood straight, clad in black armor, looking at Gao Yang with a fanatical gaze.

On the other side, Zhao Bushi also wore a murderous look, extremely excited.

The eight hundred personal guards and three hundred death-row prisoners all looked fanatical.

War is a matter of nine deaths and one life; frankly speaking, the idea that a martial general should be proud of being wrapped in horse hide is nonsense—that is the pursuit of old generals who have held high positions and great power for decades.

For these common soldiers, fighting to the death on the battlefield, they only sought three things—power, wealth, and women!

Following ordinary generals, these were just luxuries, so they were unwilling to risk their lives. When risking their lives didn't bring the deserved reward, who would be willing to risk their lives?

But following Gao Yang was different.

These military merits were real, solid military merits!

No one dared to deduct them!

Even for a single head, there was a triple reward!

How could they not fight to the death in such a war?

Gao Yang looked at the three hundred death-row prisoners, holding a golden imperial decree, and said loudly, "This is an imperial decree bestowed by His Majesty; it is your pardon!"

"Those who behead ten enemies will have their criminal records wiped clean and be granted one hundred acres of land—those who take the head of the Xiongnu Chanyu, I, the Prime Minister, will personally open a page in your genealogy and build a Shrine of Loyalty and Martyrdom!"

"If you achieve such great merit, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth, and even your descendants will point to the Shrine of Loyalty and Martyrdom and say proudly: Look! That is my ancestor; he once chopped off the dog head of the Xiongnu Great Chanyu!"

"He is a great hero!"

Once these words fell, the three hundred death-row prisoners' eyes turned scarlet, their breathing rapid.

Then.

Gao Yang looked at his eight hundred personal guards and said loudly, "In this battle, I have nothing to say; I have only one sentence—"

"I have already discussed it with His Majesty; this time, killing the enemy—compared to when you followed me on the last campaign—the rewards are doubled, and whoever beheads the Xiongnu Great Chanyu will be appointed as a Senior General!"

"Hiss!"

Once these words were spoken.

Pu Duo's breathing suddenly became rapid.

Gao Bushi's eyes turned scarlet.

"Rewards doubled…"

"Appointed… Senior General!"

For a time.

A terrifying, vigorous fighting spirit rose suddenly from the huge drill ground, as if an invisible light shot straight into the sky, breaking through the cloud layer!

Their breathing was rapid.

Their blood was boiling!

At this moment, the heads of the Xiongnu were no longer simple heads in their eyes, but a heavy military merit, white, shiny silver.

Gao Yang drew his sword, pointing it at the long sky.

"Remember! We are not going to fight a war, but to set the rules for the grassland! Let these barbarians know that from now on—the grass of the Southern Desert is only allowed to feed the horses of Da Qian, and the wind of the Northern Desert is only allowed to carry the words of Da Qian!"

In an instant.

The three hundred death-row prisoners and eight hundred personal guards roared in unison.

"Willing to follow the King of Hell to conquer Mobei; will not return until the Royal Court is broken!"

"Willing to follow the King of Hell to conquer Mobei; will not return until the Royal Court is broken!" ===== CHAPTER 1591 =====
