"Reporting to the Human Emperor, the Commander of the Brocade Guard, Mao Xiang, requests an audience!"
Outside the Military Affairs Department in the Han Dynasty's Chang'an City, Wei Zhongxian stepped aside and said softly.
"Announce him!"
A deep voice, tinged with imperial authority. In recent days, as Yuan Tiangang predicted the formal activation of the skeleton teleportation array, Yang Hao had immediately convened the ministers of the Military Affairs Department, awaiting urgent war reports from the front lines.
"Your subject, Mao Xiang, Commander of the Brocade Guard, pays respects to His Majesty!"
"His Majesty, ten thousand..."
"Enough, is it a war report from the front?"
Yang Hao waved his hand.
"Yes!"
"Human Emperor, according to the war report, the beings emerging from the teleportation array are of the demon race!"
"The demon race?"
Yang Hao frowned.
"However, Human Emperor, after the teleportation arrays in Yuzhou and Dianzhou emerged with a demon army of one hundred thousand, they all shattered. Those one hundred thousand demons have already been suppressed by the generals."
"Hm?"
Yang Hao suddenly understood. No wonder he had received five million in kill points these past two days; it turned out the teleportation arrays had been activated.
"Human Emperor!"
Changsun Wuji stepped forward and bowed, "According to the analysis of Yuan Tiangang of the Imperial Observatory, the several teleportation arrays are almost identical to those in the Blood Spring Desolate Region and the Nine Nether Desolate Region."
"Your subject suggests that while the strength of the Five Yang Venerable is weakened and cannot recover to its peak, we should immediately mobilize our armies and swiftly clear out the Nine Nether Desolate Region. The longer this is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be for our Great Han!"
Yang Hao's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Changsun Wuji, then shifted his gaze to Li Si. "Prime Minister, what are your thoughts?"
"Human Emperor!"
Upon hearing this, Li Si immediately stood up and bowed, "Your subject agrees with the suggestion of the Minister of Personnel."
"Three strange teleportation arrays have suddenly appeared within our Great Han's territory. To prevent unforeseen circumstances, we have delayed repeatedly. Now that these three doubts have been resolved, there is no longer any threat within the Great Han."
"As for the Five Yang Venerable, after several instances of possession, your subject does not know how the Five Yang escaped the pursuit of Ji Hongwen and fled from the Venerable's hands. It is likely that even if not dead, he has been severely wounded!"
"With his primordial spirit damaged, coupled with this latest possession, he must have suffered immense losses. The fusion of his primordial spirit and physical body will require considerable time. Thus, this is the best opportunity for our Great Han to launch an expedition and sweep through the Savage Realm."
"The Five Yang are weakened, and the major tribes of the Nine Nether Desolate Region have also been slaughtered by the Five Yang. Our Great Han should raise a powerful army, march beyond our borders, and strike directly at the enemy's heart!"
"How can we strike directly at the enemy's heart?"
Yang Hao looked at Li Si, his eyes lighting up.
"Human Emperor, please observe!"
Li Si walked to the map. The map of the entire Savage Realm was very detailed at this moment. "Human Emperor, since the Five Yang successfully possessed a new body, all the forces in the Nine Nether Desolate Region have been under the control of the Blood Phoenix Lion, and they have all been gathered near Nine Nether Mountain."
"And this vast territory has become a mere formality, completely devoid of fighting power!"
"Human Emperor can order the Sky-Splitting Rhinoceros Legion stationed in Yuzhou, and the army of Liang Shizhong stationed here, to advance southward."
"Furthermore, order the Vermilion Bird Legion guarding Sword Gate Pass to advance eastward. The two armies will form an encircling pincer movement, steadily advancing towards Nine Nether Mountain."
"As for the other territories, order the Qiongqi Legion to occupy them completely!"
Yang Hao looked at the entire map, following Li Si's line of thought and gradually implementing it. After deliberation, it was indeed worth a try.
The Five Yang's realm had fallen, and he was severely injured. The longer this dragged on, the more it would disadvantage the Great Han and benefit the Five Yang!
Yang Hao stood up. "We shall adjourn for today. You may all return and await my imperial decree!"
As his voice fell, Yang Hao immediately walked out of the Military Affairs Department.
"Your subjects respectfully see His Majesty off!"
......
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully eradicating three teleportation arrays and completing the hidden mission. You have gained thirty million faith points!"
As Yang Hao walked out of the Military Affairs Department, he suddenly received a system prompt. He then chuckled and shook his head. What was the use of hidden missions? It was just thirty million faith points!
"Check the inventory!"
"Ding! The host has thirty-five million kill points and fifty million faith points!"
"Use all faith points to enhance your cultivation!"
After months of arduous cultivation, with the enhancement of the Great Emperor's Golden Body, Yang Hao's realm had advanced from the first level of Creation to the sixth level of Creation, a terrifying speed!
"Ding! Successfully deducted fifty million faith points!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully breaking through two minor realms!"
A surge of primal energy fluctuated, and Yang Hao's realm reached the eighth level of Creation, bringing him one step closer to the Nirvana Realm.
"System, exchange all kill points for reincarnation power to summon ancient heroes!"
The Five Yang had successfully possessed a new body and was severely injured. While Li Si's strategy was excellent, caution was still necessary. The Great Han's army must strike with absolute precision!
Yang Hao's thoughts stirred. He still needed to summon an ancient hero to bolster this campaign.
This battle was the final confrontation between the top powers of the Savage Realm. He had to be cautious. His opponent was an ancient monster who had lived for millions of years, coupled with the demon race...
"Ding! Successfully exchanged three point five million strands of reincarnation power!"
"Ding! Successfully deducted one point five million strands of reincarnation power!"
"Ding! The system is now summoning ancient heroes!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, within the Reincarnation Yellow Tower, you have successfully summoned the top general of this era - Yang Ye!"
"Yang Ye?"
"Golden Saber Duke Yang the Invincible?"
Yang Hao smiled and nodded. A renowned general of the Northern Song Dynasty, whose father and son were both famous generals, his wisdom and courage were known as unmatched. He was quite satisfactory.
"Check Yang Ye's information!"
"Name: Yang Ye"
"Original Name: Zhong Gui, Yang Jiye"
"Dynasty: Later Han - Northern Song"
"Cultivation: Sixth level of Spirit Nurturing"
"Cultivation Method: Burning Battle Demon Saber Treasure Manual"
"Troop Type: Top-tier Troop - One hundred thousand elite Yang Family Army"
Experience: Yang Ye was the son of Yang Hongxin, the governor of Linzhou during the Later Han period. He experienced numerous bloody battles throughout his life and was a renowned general of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Yang Ye was skilled in archery from a young age and also enjoyed hunting. Since entering officialdom, he had been loyal, valiant, and resourceful.
After the establishment of the Later Han, Yang Ye followed Liu Chong, the Emperor of Later Han, and was enfeoffed as the Commander of the Guard. He became famous throughout the land for his bravery, and his reputation spread far and wide.
Later, he commanded armies and achieved many military successes. The imperial court, in recognition of his achievements, promoted him to the position of Military Governor of Jianxiong Army, and he was known as "Invincible" at the time.
After Emperor Taizong of Song, Zhao Guangyi, and the Song army destroyed the Later Han, Yang Ye surrendered to the Song Dynasty and was enfeoffed as the Governor of Zhengzhou, concurrently serving as the Great General of the Right Imperial Guard.
Later, he also served as the Observer of Yunzhou and the Military Commissioner of Daizhou and Sanjiao. Despite being a surrendered general, he was treated well by the Song Dynasty and was appreciated by the court.
In the fifth year of Taiping Xingguo, Yang Ye led his troops to resist the Liao army's invasion. In the Battle of Yanmen Pass, he severely defeated the Liao army, his victory resounding throughout Khitan.
In the third year of Yongxi, Yang Ye once again accompanied the army on a northern expedition. At that time, he was coerced by the supervising envoy Wang Xin. Yang Ye resolutely led his troops to march, entering enemy territory alone. In the Battle of Chenjiagukou, he fought valiantly and died.
"It seems this is not the Yang Ye from the historical romance!"
Yang Hao looked at Yang Ye's detailed information and said softly.
