Chapter 526 Kucha

Xie Changan supported Jiang Li and said softly, "Why are you out here instead of sleeping? Just leave these things outside to your husband."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Xiao Ling won the first battle, so of course I have to come and show my support."

When the city spirit heard this, the whole city trembled with joy, "Master, you are so kind!"

Jiang Li praised her and said, "Keep up the good work, there's another tough battle tomorrow."

"Okay, Master, don't worry, I will complete the task!"

The city spirit was extremely excited. If she hadn't found the broken limbs on the ground so disgusting, she would have rushed to Kucha City right now.

Xie Changan asked again, "Did the explosion just now scare the two children?"

Jiang Li Gege laughed and said, "They are sleeping like two little pigs, so soundly."

Xie Changan couldn't help but smile.

Wei Chen glanced at Mo Sanlang, who was smiling as he listened to the conversation between Cheng Ling and Jiang Li, and wiped a cold sweat from his forehead.

I heard that the spirit of this city is the soul of a man-eating snake monster. Aren’t you afraid?

After entering the palace, several people went straight to Xie Changan's office.

A map of the Western Regions was spread on the desk.

"After taking Kucha, there are still Gumo, Yanqi, and Cheqian."

Xie Changan pointed to several cities on the map and said with a smile, "Once we capture them all, the war in the west will basically be over."

Mo Sanlang laughed and said, "With Xiao Ling's help, let alone these few cities, I'm afraid it will be easy to capture the Dzungar Khanate."

Jiang Li smiled slightly: "The Dzungar Khanate is not possible. Xiao Ling can't cross the Tianshan Mountains."

Everyone thought so too. It would be too difficult for them to cross mountains and rivers to build a city!

Xie Changan said, "The emperor has spoken. The Western Expedition Army only needs to conquer the Turpan Khanate. As for the rest of the countries, we will discuss them later."

"Yes, I will follow His Majesty's orders!"

Wei Chen and Mo Sanlang responded respectfully.

The next day, the Western Expedition Army cleaned up the battlefield thoroughly, buried the corpses on the ground, and even covered the dried bloodstains with sand.

Cheng Ling took a look and was very satisfied: "Okay, let's go."

She threw Wei Chen out of the city and asked him to lead the army as the vanguard, while Tianjicheng followed behind in stealth.

Jiang Li returned to the Dragon Palace to catch up on his sleep, while Xie Changan took Xie Buli and Xie Buqi to the top of the Tianji City.

He intended to train the courage of his two children.

This pair of twins, boy and girl, were born with extraordinary powers and were perfect candidates to become military generals.

Xie Buli and Xie Buqi looked at the fluttering flags and neat military formations in front of them, and they were both very excited.

The two little babies were not even as tall as the cannon, and they felt very curious when they touched the barrel.

Cheng Ling kept showing off to them about his battle last night, which made Xie Buli and Xie Buqi exclaim in surprise.

Xie Buqi also complained to his father: "Dad, why didn't you wake me up? Buqi wants to see the artillery!"

Xie Buli also looked up at his father eagerly: "Buli wants to see it too!"

Cheng Ling was so adorable by the twins that she immediately promised, "I'll show you guys the fireworks in a minute!"

Xie Changan's face darkened. "Nonsense! Military orders are as heavy as a mountain. Without my order, you are not allowed to act rashly!"

The city spirit shuddered with fear. This great Immortal Lord was so scary when he got angry!

"Did you hear that?" Xie Changan asked sternly.

"Yes, I obey your command!" Cheng Ling responded loudly.

The master had explained to her that Tianji City was the headquarters of the Tianji Camp.

So she is definitely a member of the Tianji Camp.

The Tianji Camp is affiliated with the Dingguo Army, and the master's husband is the commander-in-chief of the Dingguo Army, so she is also his subordinate and must strictly obey his orders.

Xie Changan went to lecture Xie Buli and Xie Buqi again: "Cannons are no joke. Once fired, they will take countless lives. Do you two treat them like ordinary fireworks?"

The father who usually doted on them suddenly frowned and scolded them. The twins were frightened, tears welled up in their eyes, and they looked like they wanted to cry but didn't dare to.

Mo Sanlang, who was standing by, quickly tried to smooth things over: "Duke, the young county lady and the young prince are still young, please stop scolding them."

He secretly complained, the two little kids are not even two years old, and you carried them to the top of the city to watch the war. Who is more unreliable?

Xie Changan also realized that he had acted too hastily.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly. The two children were born with supernatural powers, and there were so many powerful pets around them. If he didn't discipline them well from a young age and teach them to distinguish right from wrong, they would sooner or later get into big trouble!

He sighed, picked up the two babies, one in each hand, and kissed their cheeks, "Don't cry, it's Daddy's fault."

"Today, Daddy will show you with your own eyes that many people will die in war. Uncle Mo and his men developed these cannons to prevent the bad guys from attacking us and to protect children like Bulibuqi."

Xie Buli's face was still covered with tears, and he nodded vigorously: "Buli understands, the cannon is used to protect us, not to play with."

Xie Changan was so happy that he kissed her cheeks several times, "Buli is right!"

My daughter is really smart!

Mo Sanlang was shocked. Prince Jing'an was so smart that he was almost a demon. He didn't expect that the child she gave birth to would be so precocious!

"The young county lady is extremely clever. The Duke has a successor. Congratulations!"

Mo Sanlang was extremely envious. Why didn’t he have such a smart daughter?

Thinking of his son at home who only knows how to drool, he couldn't help but feel a headache.

Soon, Wei Chen led the Western Expedition Army to the outskirts of Qiuci City.

The city walls were silent, and the flags of the remnants of the Turpan army were still hanging on the walls, but there was not a single defender, let alone the Dzungar nobles whom Qianli Vision had seen that day.

Wei Chen was speechless. Were they all scared away?

He didn't even think about the earth-shattering explosion last night, in which tens of thousands of cavalrymen were instantly shattered to pieces. Wouldn't the people left in the city be scared out of their wits?

Run away quickly before the people from Da Chu arrive!

Those Junggar nobles who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune were so scared that they left Qiuci City overnight, crossed the Tianshan Mountains, and ran back to their own country without even having time to pack up their belongings.

Wei Chen ordered his soldiers to go forward and shout, but the city was silent and no one answered.

Wei Chen then ordered his messenger to report to Xie Chang'an that Qiuci City had become a deserted city.

The messenger ran to the back of the team. He couldn't see the invisible city either, so he shouted into the air: "Xie Shuai, there is no one in Qiuci City!"

Xie Changan then ordered Tianji City to reveal itself.

He used his clairvoyance to look into the city, only to see that the gates were tightly closed and everywhere was quiet, as if there was no one there.

He stood on the top of the city wall and said loudly: "General Wei, there seems to be no one in the city. Send a small team into the city to investigate."

"Yes, I will obey your order!"

After the vanguard troops entered the city of Kucha, they did not encounter any attack. It seemed that all the defenders in the city had fled. Only occasionally, the common people would peek out from behind the door with a look of fear on their faces.

After confirming that all the enemy troops had fled, Xie Changan ordered Wei Chen to lead his troops into the city to appease the people.

When they heard that there was no more war, Cheng Ling and Mo Sanlang were both quite regretful.

Jiang Li had woken up by then. After listening to Cheng Ling's report, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. These two warmongers!

"We can't bombard Kucha City with cannons. If the walls are destroyed, won't we have to repair them?"
