In the past two days,
Huangfu Baizhi had told Ye Yu everything that had happened in the Da Yong Dynasty,
including the crisis brought by the Da Xia Dynasty.
Regarding this matter,
Ye Yu did not take it too seriously.
If he could easily break through the Da Xia Dynasty in dreams,
then in reality, it would surely not be difficult.
Thus,
Ye Yu donned the dragon robe personally sewn by Huangfu Baizhi.
He stood within the city of Quanchang.
At this moment,
everyone present felt quite perplexed by this unfamiliar man in the dragon robe.
Why had they never seen this person before?
Could it be that
Huangfu Baizhi had rebelled just to place this man on the throne?
That seemed too unbelievable!
As they were lost in thought,
hundreds of royal monks arrived in midair.
They brought along the first-rank minister, Sun Longhai.
After two days of interaction,
Sun Longhai had completely grasped the situation at hand.
Since Ye Yu's appearance,
Huangfu Baizhi had immediately retreated to the background,
entrusting all matters to Ye Yu,
and informing everyone
that Ye Yu was the true emperor of the Da Yong Dynasty.
Sun Longhai, being shrewd,
immediately began to align himself.
He vigorously supported Ye Yu's ascension to the throne.
Moreover, the key point was that
Ye Yu's identity was easily accepted by the subjects of the Da Yong Dynasty!
Having recognized their new master,
Sun Longhai naturally understood how to express his loyalty!
He had just arrived in the city,
and before he could steady himself,
he angrily shouted, “Are you all crazy?
His Majesty is here, why aren’t you kneeling?
Kneel!
All of you kneel!”
Upon hearing this,
all the soldiers present finally reacted from their shock.
They hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects.
For the lower-ranking soldiers,
kneeling and paying respects was something
they had long since become accustomed to.
When Shangguan Rang said to kneel, they naturally did so.
The important thing was to survive and have enough to eat.
As for the mid to high-ranking generals, they dared not resist at all.
They were all too well aware of Huangfu Baizhi's iron-fisted methods.
No matter who Ye Yu was,
they had reasons and logic to kneel before Huangfu Baizhi.
Seeing thousands of men kneeling in a sea of black,
Sun Longhai immediately stepped forward.
After paying his respects to Ye Yu,
he loudly proclaimed, “Everyone present, listen up.
This man is the sixteenth prince of the late Emperor Ye Kuiliang.
Currently, he is the reigning emperor of the Da Yong Dynasty, Ye Yu!
Your failure to kneel and pay your respects at the first moment is a capital offense.
However, we are in urgent need of talent, and His Majesty has decided to allow you to make contributions while bearing your guilt!
Do you all understand?”
Meng Shifang suddenly raised his head,
looking at Ye Yu in disbelief.
The sixteenth prince?
He was a veteran of two dynasties.
He had never heard of
Ye Kuiliang having a sixteenth prince!
Then, where exactly did Ye Yu come from?
Meng Shifang furrowed his brow, staring at Ye Yu in the dragon robe ahead.
Just as he was puzzled,
he suddenly received a chilling voice transmission!
“Lower your head!
In the presence of His Majesty, you must show reverence!
Otherwise, the Da Yong Dynasty will soon have one more general who has died in battle!”
Without a doubt,
the voice came from Huangfu Baizhi.
In an instant,
Meng Shifang trembled all over.
He immediately lowered his head to the ground.
Loudly proclaiming, “I, Meng Shifang, pay my respects to Your Majesty!”
With him leading the way,
all the soldiers in the venue followed suit.
“Paying respects to Your Majesty!”
Ye Yu slowly stepped forward.
In a deep voice, he said, “I do not like to talk nonsense.
I only like to get things done!
From this day forth, I announce a decree.
Those who kill a person will be rewarded with ten taels of silver, two acres of land, and one house.
And so on!
How much you can get depends on yourselves, soldiers!”
This statement was made by Ye Yu based on his spiritual energy.
It was enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
Then,
Sun Longhai directly took out all the one million taels of silver he had in his storage ring.
He piled it into a mountain of silver on the ground.
Such a powerful visual impact
made all the lower-ranking soldiers’ eyes turn red.
A mountain of silver!
A real mountain of silver was right here.
This scene clearly told everyone that the money was right there.
As long as you could kill the enemy, you could take it at any time!
A soldier looked at everything before him,
muttering softly, “Silver, and land?
Do they really give land?”
This statement immediately drew the whip of the nearby general.
Questioning the holy decree should be severely punished.
Ye Yu loudly declared, “Land is indeed given. It will be given after the fight!
But the prerequisite is that you must be able to kill! You must also be able to protect the land beneath your feet.
If you cannot protect it, your land, house, and silver will become rewards for the soldiers of the Da Xia Dynasty!”
Upon hearing this,
the soldiers' breathing grew heavy.
It seemed that the things within reach were right before their eyes.
But there were people wanting to steal them!
Why should they?
Why did they have the right?
Then, Ye Yu turned to the hundreds of monks.
“You all too, martial arts, spirit stones, elixirs.
Whatever you want, I will provide!
But the prerequisite is, you must exchange it for the heads of the enemy’s cultivators!”
In this fantastical world,
the human dynasty fought wars, and soldiers were important.
But what truly determined the direction of battle
were the cultivators.
Therefore, these royal monks also had to step up and fight!
Without a doubt,
Ye Yu's words completely boosted the morale of everyone present.
At the same time, it also allowed Huangfu Baizhi to witness once again
how rewards should be given out.
Undoubtedly, the method of rewarding achievements in the Blue Star
was a complete dimensionality reduction strike in this world!
That afternoon,
the soldiers of the Da Yong Dynasty
not only defeated the troops of the Da Xia Dynasty in one fell swoop
but also launched a counterattack against the territories they had previously lost.
Ye Yu also fulfilled his promise.
He gathered over a thousand clerks to follow behind the soldiers.
After each battle,
they would come forward to begin recording achievements.
And within a day, they would distribute the rewards.
With such measures in place,
the soldiers and monks of the Da Yong Dynasty fought without fear of death,
madly launching counterattacks against the Da Xia Dynasty.
The situation turned once again.
In just half a month,
not only did they reclaim lost territories, but they also successfully infiltrated the Da Xia Dynasty,
forcing them to send envoys
to prepare for peace talks!
However, Ye Yu's attitude was very resolute.
He announced to the entire army
to refuse all peace talks.
Your land, silver, and houses should belong to the soldiers of my Da Yong Dynasty!
As soon as this news came out,
the soldiers' morale surged once again,
continuing their frenzied attacks!
Two more months passed.
The Da Xia Dynasty was completely breached.
Just like in the dream, it became a vassal state of the Da Yong Dynasty.
After resolving this crisis,
Huangfu Baizhi earnestly requested Ye Yu for one thing.
That was to marry her.
No matter if it was in the parallel world or the dream,
Huangfu Baizhi wanted to marry Ye Yu once more in reality.
This time,
she wanted to wear that manifested wedding dress again.
For such a request,
Ye Yu gladly agreed.
The two then returned to the royal city
and held a grand wedding.
Huangfu Baizhi, who wore that wedding dress again, was quite excited.
Ye Yu was the same.
Especially that night,
they were even more excited.
The day after the wedding,
the master of the Nirvana Palace, Xiang Yuansheng, came to congratulate them with people.
