Chu Lixuan personally led the soldiers to the south this time, and everyone was excited and gearing up.

Although they don't know how long they will be away, the morale of the soldiers is so high that they are not afraid of being separated from their newlywed wives.

Chu Lixuan could go back to space at night to reunite with his little wife.

However, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and there is no difference between day and night. He hugged his little wife and whispered with special melancholy.

"Xinxin~ If the dog emperor hadn't been eyeing our Xuanyan City, my husband would have taken you by my side."

"There are not so many ifs in life. When we encounter difficulties, we can only move forward bravely."

"Don't worry, no matter how cruel this world is, my husband will protect you."

"Well, my husband is the most powerful."

"Just stay in the castle and wait for me to drive away the Nanman, and then come back to take care of those who want to attack the city."

"Don't worry, husband. Our castle's defense system is very strong. Emperor Dongcheng still doesn't have the ability to attack. However, you must pay more attention to safety when fighting against the southern barbarians."

"Don't worry Xinxin, I've gotten used to it over the years, it's okay."

"Well... Husband, I'm a little worried..."

"Don't worry Xinxin, my husband has brought more than 10,000 people with him this time. Wei Dabin and the others also brought more than 10,000 people before, so don't be afraid."

"But, I heard that the Nanman army is brave and good at fighting. I'm really afraid that they will hurt you."

"Xinxin, how could I be willing to get hurt? Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"Okay, then I believe you. It is said that a few years ago, you defeated the Southern Barbarians with a small number and a large number."

Chu Lixuan recalled the situation at that time. At that time, he was alone and he was really fighting desperately.

He told Jiang Xinyan that it was two years ago, two years after his grandfather, father, second uncle, and a dozen brothers of the same generation were all killed in the war.

The Southern Barbarians invaded again. There were traitors in the Chu family's army. The frontier was isolated and helpless and was about to fall.

Chu Lixuan led 10,000 soldiers of the Chu army to defend a small town on the border and resist stubbornly.

The emperor issued a secret order to Lu Chengdi, ordering him to lead an army to garrison Yazhou without moving.

Chu Lixuan led more than 10,000 soldiers to hold off the 250,000 Nanman soldiers for more than two months. Because of traitors, they lost contact with the Chu family's army.

In order to resist the southern barbarian army, they pitifully ate up all the bark, grass and roots on the mountain.

Finally, the two soldiers faced each other, and Chu Lixuan killed the Nanman eldest prince with his last breath and won a complete victory.

He was seriously injured and became a lame. The emperor was pleased and ordered him to return to the capital for treatment.

The emperor personally appointed Lu Chengdi as the commander-in-chief of the Chu family army, allowing him to continue to guard the border.

Jiang Xinyan felt heartbroken when she heard that she wished she could beat the emperor, but unfortunately, the emperor was far away in the capital.

The couple hugged each other and kissed each other's cheeks and foreheads. The picture was warm and beautiful.

"Husband, you go to bed early. You have to lead the troops to fight tomorrow." Jiang Xinyan tucks him in thoughtfully.

Chu Lixuan was extremely moved and satisfied. He gently held her in his arms and said softly: "Well..."

The next day, early in the morning, Chu Lixuan left the castle with 10,000 elite soldiers and headed south.

Jinniang was very reluctant to part with her eldest son, so she sent Jiang Xinyan to the gate of the castle. Jinniang burst into tears and talked a lot.

Jiang Xinyan knew that they would meet in the evening, so she was not reluctant to leave.

Chu Lixiang is not close to his eldest brother, so as long as his eldest sister-in-law doesn't go with him, he won't be reluctant to leave.

The newlyweds of other soldiers also bid farewell to each other with tears in their eyes. Cheng Qianqian was particularly sad.

But the army still set off, and it would take them two months at the fastest to reach the southern border.

At this time, in a small county town thousands of miles away in Yazhou City, the second Nanman prince personally led an army of 300,000 to pursue the Lu family's army in pursuit of victory.

"Report——General, the second Nanman prince has led most of the troops to surround Shilipo."

After hearing this, Lu Chengdi frowned so hard that he could kill a fly. For more than half a year, their Lu family army has been like a lost dog.

With no food and being chased and beaten by the Nanman army, they fled without the confidence to fight.

Lu Chengdi couldn't help but recall that five years ago, he was the one who followed the emperor's order and the son of the Chu family was almost killed in battle. It reached an irreversible point and almost lost Yazhou.

In the end, Chu Lixuan stood up and resisted with all his strength, repelling the southern barbarians. When the emperor was happy, he was granted the title of Marquis of Zhennan.

He was also given the opportunity to marry the most beautiful woman in the capital, the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Lu Chengdi did not get any benefit at all.

Unwilling to do so, he still flattered the Marquis of Zhennan every day and stayed by his side in a lowly manner.

He knew that the Marquis of Zhennan didn't trust him, and he didn't know why. The Marquis of Zhennan had always been very kind to him.

Two years later, the Nanman launched another large-scale attack, but he still followed the secret order and took the opportunity to kill the Marquis of Zhennan.

In the end, he succeeded in making the Marquis of Zhennan become a cripple, and he also succeeded in commanding the Chu army as he wished.

It's a pity that he could only enjoy the glory for half a year, and he didn't have time to honor his ancestors.

After that, Lu Chengdi and his Lu Jiajun were in dire straits.

Now, almost all of his cronies are dead, and the remaining soldiers hate him even more.

Although Shilipo is an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack place, the second Nanman prince dared to set up an ambush and wait for him, so he must have been fully prepared.

Thinking of this, Lu Chengdi did not dare to go out to meet the enemy easily, so he could only huddle in the tent.

The two fierce generals sent by the imperial court, as well as food and grass, were in place. Lu Chengdi planned to hide in Shilipo and fight to the end.

Soon, the second Nanman prince led the army to stand in the camp and curse. He was wearing armor, his face was painted with oil paint, he was holding a scimitar in his hand, and he was glaring at their camp fiercely.

"Hahaha..." The second Nanman prince looked up to the sky and laughed arrogantly.

"I heard that the Marquis of the South of Dongchen Town is an unparalleled genius. Unfortunately, we have disabled you. You ants are really vulnerable. I am chasing you and beating you. Now you can only hide here and don't dare to come out."

The second Nanman prince looked like he was sure of victory, and could not hide his arrogance and confidence at all.

The fierce generals sent by Emperor Dongchen couldn't bear the insults from the second Nanman prince.

They wanted to put on armor and go into battle, but Lu Chengdi hid in the tent and refused to come out. The two fierce generals glanced at the rabble of the Lu family army indifferently and said disdainfully.

"If General Lu does not go to meet the enemy, I will lead his men into battle. I will not believe that the Nanman people have three heads and six arms."

Lu Chengdi: "..." He could only remain silent, there was no need to be quick with his words.

It was obvious that the second prince came prepared, and he had already made sufficient preparations.

The two fierce generals looked at each other and led the tens of thousands of reinforcements they brought over to the front of the camp.

"Hmph! Second Southern Barbarian Prince, stop looking down on others. All of your Southern Barbarian soldiers are cowards. They only dare to attack others secretly."

"Who are you? Where is your surname Lu? Hasn't he been with your Dongchen God of War for many years? If you surnamed Lu come out to fight, you are no match for this prince."

After the second Nanman prince finished speaking, the soldiers behind him suddenly burst into thunderous applause, all of them looking high-spirited.

"Hmph! The Second Nanman Prince is really arrogant. Do you think you are the King of the Nanman? How dare you order my general."

After saying that, I saw the man in black riding his horse and walked over, revealing a handsome face.

This person's name is Li Tianyu, and he is one of the right-hand men of Commander Dongchen Jinyiwei. He is also the direct disciple of Commander Jinyiwei.
