Chapter 1000: Mutiny, the beginning of chaos

For revenge, Lin Chujiu led 200,000 Jinwuwei Army and 200,000 imperial soldiers and horses, totaling 400,000 soldiers and horses, to attack the South.

At this time, the people of the old and new dynasties of the South no longer cared about their differences. Faced with a powerful enemy, the old and new dynasties once again chose to unite to fight against the enemy.

The old and new dynasties sent a total of more than 600,000 troops to fight Lin Chujiu’s 400,000 troops.

The West and the North were hindered by Xiao Tianyao’s words and did not dare to help the South openly, but privately they provided food, grass, and weapons for them.

They knew very well that the Southern Barbarians could not be destroyed. Once the Southern Barbarians were destroyed, the two of them would be minced on Xiao Tianyao’s chopping board and could only be slaughtered by Xiao Tianyao.

“What on earth is the Central Empire doing? Don’t they know Xiao Tianyao’s ambition? Are they just letting Xiao Tianyao unify the four countries?” Since the three-countries alliance was formed four years ago, the West did not stop sending letters to the Central Empire, asking for its support.

Not only the West but also the North and the South continued to send letters to the Central Empire, asking them to deal with Xiao Tianyao or to send troops to garrison the four countries. They were willing to accept the imperial garrison.

Although the Central Empire has always been strong and has suppressed the four countries, they were at least an independent country in front of the empire, and they were also emperors in their own country. If they were destroyed by Xiao Tianyao, they would be nothing in the world. There will be no more South, West, and North countries.

Therefore, even knowing that the Central Empire was not easy to deal with, the three countries continued to write letters to the Central Empire, asking for help. However, the letters they wrote in the past four years were like mud in the sea, and they all fell into the sea without a single response.

If they can’t write a letter, they can only send people to the Central Empire, but ordinary people can’t cross the Central Empire’s borders at all, so they can only let the Martial Gods go. The three countries have sent no less than two Martial Gods to the Central Empire, but they can’t be sent to the Central Empire.

Although Martial Gods were nothing in front of Xiao Tianyao, a Supreme Martial God, the Martial Gods of various countries were still treasures, and their numbers were extremely limited. The loss of several Martial Gods was a fatal blow to the three countries, and they can no longer lose more……

Things have remained stagnant, until in the name of revenge for her son, Lin Chujiu sent troops to attack the South……

The South sent numerous letters to the Central Empire early in the morning, exaggerating their current crisis dozens of times and requesting support from the Central Empire. However, when Lin Chujiu sent troops, they did not receive a reply from the Central Empire.

The West and the North saw the crisis and did not care about the loss. They wrote to the Central Empire through special channels, asking for help from the Central Empire, and at the same time asked the domestic martial gods to go to the Central Empire for help.

After the news and people were sent out, the emperors of the West and the North began to wait for the news. However, they did not know that as soon as their news was sent, it was intercepted by the people of Tiancang Pavilion, and then Tiancang Pavilion would make a copy of the handwriting. The same letter, but with completely different contents, so……

No matter how many distress letters the West and the North sent, the Central Empire did not know their real situation.

As for the Martial Gods, they sent out to ask for help.

As soon as they leave their country, they will be killed by the people of Shadow Moon Tower. Among them, Jing Chi and Tangtang killed most of them. Because they were the last line of defense, and they guarded the only way for the four countries to enter the Central Empire.

“Xiao Chichi, what time is this? How long are we going to stay in this hellish place? I’m getting tired from eating meat every day.” After staying at the border with no grass for more than four years, Tangtang no longer had the savage looks he used to have but had a dirty little face and long hair like withered grass.

However, Jing Chi didn’t dislike him at all. He raised his hand and touched his head: “Soon.” When Prince Xiao unified the world, they would be free.

After that, neither the Central Empire nor Moon Shadow Tower could do anything to them, nor could they force them to do something they didn’t want to do.

“It’s so boring. I’ve almost finished counting the stars in the sky.” TangTang nodded, squatting weakly on the ground and drawing circles on the ground with a stone.

Jing Chi said nothing, just stood aside quietly. But suddenly Jing Chi moved, like lightning, drew his sword, and pounced on the enemy like a cheetah……

After half a stick of incense, Jing Chi came back, with a faint smell of blood. Tangtang sniffed: “Xiao Chichi, it’s fine even if you are here alone, why don’t I leave first?”

“I’ve told you so many times, no!” Jing Chi refused without thinking: “The Central Empire sent 15 spies last month. They haven’t received a reply after a month, so they will send more people. I can’t do it alone.”

To make Tangtang stay willingly, Jing Chi even said “no”, which shows that he worked hard.

After hearing this, Tangtang could only nod helplessly.

As Xiao Chichi’s best brother, how could he put Xiao Chichi alone in danger?

At the moment, the Central Empire was not as capable as Jing Chi said and had no energy to send spies to the East.

In the past three years, for some unknown reason, the Dongyang Family and the Hua Family put aside the pride of their aristocratic families and began to pursue the third prince of the Central Empire.

The third prince was originally favored by the Emperor. After the Eldest Prince and his mother’s family withdrew from the army, he took over most of the eldest prince’s power. Then with the help of the Dongyang Family and the Hua Family, the third prince quickly established his feet and expanded his influence in the court and the military.

At this time, not to mention that the power of the third prince was far greater than that of the other princes, he was no worse than the Emperor. By the time the Emperor reacted, it was already too late to suppress him.

No one in the court or the army was the opponent of the third prince. The other princes either gave up the fight for the throne early or were suppressed to death by the third prince. The third prince’s family dominates the entire Central Empire. The emperor wanted to balance the imperial power but had no chance.

People’s ambitions can expand infinitely. In the early years, with the connivance of the Emperor, the third prince regarded the position of the crown prince as his own and aimed to be the next emperor.

Now, in the eyes of the third prince, the position of crown prince was already within his grasp. So at this time, his goal was no longer to become the next emperor but to sit on the throne as soon as possible.

The third prince wants to ascend to the throne as soon as possible, not only because of ambition but also because the Emperor has been suppressing him for the past two years. If he does not want to follow in the footsteps of the eldest prince, he has no choice but to rebel.

“My father is at the peak of his power and will not abdicate for more than ten or twenty years. I don’t mind waiting for 10 or 20 years, but my father cannot tolerate me. I am not afraid of death. I must convince my father. Even if I die now, I am willing to do so, but after I die, the Emperor will not let you go. I can’t just stand by and watch you sacrifice yourselves for me. I can’t do something like that.” These were three words the prince stated to his confidants before he rebelled.

Even at this moment, the third prince still has to find a high-sounding reason to show his benevolence.

As the confidants of the third prince, they were naturally grateful, while the Dongyang Family and the Hua Family just smiled and said nothing.

After three years of supporting this stupid prince, it’s finally coming to an end..…
