Chapter 731: Uproar! [Seventh Update for the Qixi Festival!]

"Go all out to repair the pass and defend it without fail."

This was Marshal Ye's last and highest instruction when he was leaving.

Defend, not attack.

"You guys, seize this last moment to make your cultivation one step closer. The day of Shattered Void is not far away." This is what Ye Xiao said to Ning Biluo, Zhao Pingtian, and Liu Changjun.

When Ye Xiao left this time, he didn't even take away the killers from Lingbao Pavilion, Ning Biluo, Zhao Pingtian, Liu Changjun and others!

Even Song Jue didn't know where Ye Xiao had gone.

In a favorable situation, Marshal Ye suddenly withdrew his troops almost as a joke; it can be said to have caused an uproar. When the news came out, the world was shocked again!

I just heard about the legend of Marshal Ye defeating the weak and the strong and defeating Wenren Jianyin, but then I heard about Marshal Ye's deeds of giving up his country for the sake of beauty.

Suddenly, the entire Hanyang Continent once again had something to talk about.

"That's awesome! That's awesome!"

"That's right, you are indeed Ye Xiao! You don't want to sacrifice your country for a beauty..."

"More than that, this is simply risking your own life."

"makes sense."

"This is a serious crime equivalent to treason. I really don't know what Ye Xiao is thinking..."

…

But in the hearts of girls across the continent, the shock suddenly became even more serious.

"If someone is willing to... be so desperate for me... what do I... want in life?"

This thought is what almost all the dreamy girls in the entire continent are thinking about during this period of time; they all are envious, jealous and hateful of the legendary Princess Lanfeng.

"I really want to see how beautiful Princess Wenren is. How she can let Marshal Ye make such a big sacrifice and concession for her..."

"Shuai Ye... is indeed a seed of infatuation..."

"I really want to meet this wonderful man in the world..."

…

What is absolutely different from the folk legend is that...the ministers in the capital once again had a reason to criticize Ye Xiao. They obviously wanted to avenge their relatives, and they still wanted to kill Ye Xiao.

Everyone jumped up and down, impassioned.

"Your Majesty, Ye Xiao deceived you and showed disobedience!"

"Ye Xiao acted cowardly in the face of battle and missed the opportunity to fight. He is an unforgivable crime!"

"Ye Xiao is greedy for beauty and betrays the interests of the empire. He deserves death!"

"Ye Xiao is committing a crime by giving up a good situation! A heinous crime!"

"Ye Xiaoxian has been bribed by the Blue Wind Empire and has the intention of surrendering to the enemy and treason. It is obvious that he must kill this beast quickly to avoid future troubles!"

…

And so on, reasonable and unreasonable, logical and illogical, and even so stupid that they can no longer be stupid, there are many new and hot reasons, sweeping over like overwhelming mountains, turbulent waves, big waves washing away the sand, the momentum is surging, and there is no way to stop it!

The whole court was noisy, and at this moment, Ye Xiao once again became the target of many people.

More than hundreds of ministers could not afford to kneel down, pleading to punish Ye Xiao, a traitor!

Some people shed tears and burst into tears.

His Majesty the Emperor had a sullen face, looking at the ministers kneeling below, not knowing what he was thinking...

In this regard, Zuo Wuji finally stood up. It was also the first time that he truly made his voice heard in the court.

"It's a bunch of nonsense. You actually frame Commander Ye Xiao with such baseless, irreverent and confusing remarks. Wouldn't it make the people of Emperor Chen feel cold and the soldiers of Emperor Chen feel chilled!"

Zuo Wuji's first words aroused public outrage.

"Zuo Wuji, you and Ye Xiao are clearly the same species!" Several ministers looked at Zuo Wuji angrily: "If I had known you would stand up, you two traitors would have been punished by everyone!"

Zuo Wuji calmly said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have a few words to say."

His Majesty the Emperor said solemnly: "Speak."

Zuo Wuji looked a little sad and angry: "At that time, the country was in crisis and the national calamity was at the forefront. Marshal Ye was hurriedly ordered to lead an army of 100,000 to help Tiefengguan. At that time, there were only 80,000 defeated soldiers in the whole city of Tiefengguan. Even the most optimistic It is estimated that the number of troops under Marshal Ye's command at that time was only 180,000! And the Blue Wind Empire's army would not be less than 1.5 million!"

"With an army of only 180,000 people and a city, we are trying our best to fight against the Blue Wind army of 1.5 million people! In such a dangerous battle, who can do it! Marshal Ye can do it! Marshal Ye tried his best and made many ingenious plans. In the end, The great victory and the complete expulsion of the enemy from the territory of our country are so vivid that they can be seen by both heaven and man, so there is no point in me emphasizing them.”

"Commander Ye is fighting for the country with his life!"

"What are you talking about? You said that Commander Ye deceived the emperor and had a disobedient heart. Damn it. When Commander Ye raised his troops, it was the most critical moment for the survival of the empire. If Commander Ye had not sent troops, the empire would have already been at the gates of the city. Even if the country is destroyed and the race is destroyed, Ye Shuai deceives the emperor and is disobedient, so why bother and waste all your efforts!"

"Are you asking Commander Ye again, are you timid in the face of battle and wasting the opportunity to fight? I'm sorry, the ones who are really timid in the face of battle and wasting the opportunity to fight are only your descendants. If they weren't timid, how could they show up in the last branch of the empire? In the army?"

"If they hadn't been cowardly, how could they have perished under Ye Shuai's orders because of their disrespect for military law! Their cowardice and resistance to military orders were the real consequences of wasting the opportunity to fight, and they are indeed unforgivable crimes!"

"There are also things like coveting beauty, selling out the interests of the empire, being bribed by the Blue Wind Empire, surrendering to the enemy and having treasonous intentions, which are obvious, etc., which are even more absurd. I say again and again, speaking of betraying the interests of the empire and being bribed by the Blue Wind Empire, is Marshal Ye stupid?"

"You didn't surrender to the enemy when you first sent out your troops, and you didn't surrender to the enemy when you arrived at Tiefeng Pass to face the Blue Wind army. You had to surrender to the enemy only after you defeated the Blue Wind Empire miserably?! Do you have no brains, or is there something wrong with your brain?! Can you have a more reliable imagination? Even if you fabricate charges, you should think of some reliable charges!"

"Among the many charges, the only reliable one is giving up the good situation, but is this really a fault? At the right time, although the Blue Wind suffered a great defeat and collapsed, what about us? Although Marshal Ye won this battle, it was only a miserable victory!"

"180,000 against 1.5 million enemies The army defeated the strong with the weak and defeated the many with the few. This battle itself is a miracle! Although we won, how many of our 180,000 soldiers are left? Do the remaining people have the strength to fight again? "

"Even if the most optimistic estimate is that 50,000 of these 180,000 soldiers can survive after that battle, it is already a blessing from heaven! In fact, this is just the living ones, and it does not say how many of the 50,000 living ones are disabled or no longer have the ability to fight. "

"Your Majesty has also been on the battlefield and led troops. Naturally, you should know how huge our losses will be after such a battle. "

"Marshal Ye's army pursued all the way, and after seven days and nights of rapid attacks, not only recovered all the lost land, but also broke through several passes of Lanfeng, and went to the important border town of Lanfeng to connect to Tianlan City. After seven days and nights of sleepless nights, how much manpower can be left? ! "
