I really became a king.

Chapter 490 Prince Yi's Mansion Advances Eastward

After hearing Jiang Yi's words, Prince Guo Jiang Huan opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing because he felt guilty.

Back then, all the male members of the Mu family in the Northern Frontier died out. Although the Dali royal family was not the mastermind behind the incident, no one would believe that they did not add fuel to the fire.

As the only remaining descendant of the Mu family in Northern Xinjiang, how could Mu Xiruo not have resentment in her heart?

Now his only daughter almost died in the conspiracy of the Dali Imperial Capital. With new and old grudges, how could he easily withdraw his troops?

Prince Guo Jiang Huan looked at the Sixth Patriarch of Dali, but Jiang Bai continued to hold the teacup and drink with relish.

With a bitter smile to himself, Jiang Huan knew that he had misjudged the situation.

It was originally thought that as long as Prince Yi Jiang Yi was persuaded, the Mu family in the northern border would naturally withdraw their troops.

Now it seems that Prince Yi cannot be the master of Northern Frontier at all. At least on the matter of the little princess being attacked, he must respect the opinion of the person from Northern Frontier.

As a father, it was impossible for him to be tough when his daughter almost died at the hands of his tribesmen.

Not long after, Fulong, Dong Chengyang, Fang Yue, Tian Buyi, Bai Ling, E Ye and other people from Prince Yi's palace came out of the big tent.

Only Jiang Yi, Jiang Bai and Jiang Huan were left in the big tent.

"Alas, what a pity..." Frontal Lobe suddenly sighed towards the sky.

"Yeah, what a pity!" Bai Ling, the leader of the Black Water Eight Banners, also said with regret.

"What's a pity? It's not the right time yet. Besides, the prince will definitely cut a piece of meat from the Dali Imperial Capital this time." Tian Buyi said with a smile.

"What we have to do now is to bide our time and delay the war...if possible." said Fang Yue, the Ghost Lord who had been like a transparent man from beginning to end.

His words immediately aroused everyone's curiosity. Bormu of the Khorhan Eight Banners was outspoken and asked directly: "Your Excellency, I wonder where is the place of the great struggle that the prince mentioned?"

Since Fang Yue abandoned his identity as the Venerable of Hundred Ghosts and the art of sacrificing his life span, he has washed away all the hostility in his body. Hearing this, he grinned silently:
"Of course I know where that place is, but do you think... I dare to reveal it without the prince's permission?"

After saying that, he laughed, "Haha," and turned and left.

The remaining generals looked at each other. Fulong smiled and said, "Don't ask. The prince will tell you when the time comes." After saying that, he turned and left, but he did not go far. He was not far from the big tent.

When the generals left, their eyes were constantly looking at the three thousand "Youfeng Cavalry" who were tightly guarding the big tent. If they guessed correctly, this terrifying cavalry should be related to the place that was related to the great struggle of the world.

Some people wanted to step forward and test the waters, but they quickly gave up because this "Youfeng Cavalry" would not pay attention to anyone except their own prince.

Just when all the forces in the wild continent focused their attention on the Humen Pass, Prince Guo Jiang Huan entered Prince Yi's camp alone with an attendant.

What followed was several days of closed-door talks, and no one knew what was discussed specifically.

A few days later, when Prince Guo came out of Prince Yi's camp, he looked relaxed. He even drank and chatted with the generals from Western Frontier and partied for several days.

Prince Guo's action made everyone who knew him feel familiar.

After so many years, the once wild, unruly and heroic Prince Guo is back.

The scene that happened next shocked all the forces in the Manghuang Continent. Many people secretly lamented that it was a pity that the opportunity to dismember the Dali Dynasty that came with great difficulty was gone.

A few days later, Jiang Zhenyi, the Emperor of Dali who was in the imperial capital, issued an edict: to transfer Heshuo Prefecture to the jurisdiction of Prince Yi's Palace!
When this decree was issued, the whole world was in an uproar. Was the Dali Emperor Jiang Zhenyi crazy? After taking control of Heshuo, the Yiwang Mansion would not only be limited to the west of the Demon Realm Pass, but the army could openly cross the East Demon Realm Pass.

Are you sure this isn't raising a tiger to cause trouble? And why didn't Ye Xinmei, the Queen of Dali, object?

Soon they found out that Jiang Zhenyi once again issued an order, sending his trusted generals to take over the million-strong army on the Humen Pass front line and completely wipe out any traces of the Bailing Ye family in this army.

Afterwards, the Eight Banners of Khorhan and the Eight Banners of Heishui under Prince Yi's Mansion withdrew to the west of Moyu Pass. The veteran general Mao Wenhuan, who was in charge of the military office of the Shen Ce Mansion, led an army of 100,000 to station in Heshuo.

Jiang Yi also brought three thousand [Youfeng Taoist soldiers] and led the 100,000 troops of the personal camp back to Kongtong Mountain.

The million-strong army of the Dali Imperial Capital that had assembled at the Humen Pass front also withdrew from the Humen Pass front in batches, leaving only 100,000 troops to continue garrisoning.

For a moment, the war clouds at Humen Pass, where a war was about to break out, dissipated and returned to peace.

However, everyone understood that this was a crucial step for the Prince Yi's Palace in Western Xinjiang. From then on, the Prince Yi's Palace officially set foot in the heartland of the Dali Dynasty and was no longer just a king of a remote vassal state.

Many people even secretly speculated that the voice of Prince Yi's Mansion might appear in the Dali court soon. This crucial step might be the sign that Prince Yi's Mansion officially entered the Dali court.

But just like before, listen to orders and not announcements!
The most likely option is to train agents.

The war clouds dissipated at Humen Pass, but the Dali Imperial Capital did not say a word about the Dali Northern Frontier.

The army of the Mu family in the northern border still occupied the northern pass - Shanmen Pass. Although the Emperor Dali did not make a clear statement, he tacitly agreed to this matter.

The reversal of the situation in the Dali Dynasty silenced all forces that were paying attention to this matter and even planned to gain benefits from it.

What happened during the few days that Prince Guo stayed in Prince Yi's camp that caused Emperor Jiang Zhenyi of Dali to make such a big concession?

They actually gave away two strategic locations in succession: Shanmen Pass in the north, the northern gateway of the Dali Imperial Capital!

Heshuo Prefecture is the western gateway of the Dali Imperial Capital. With the help of this place, the army of Prince Yi's Palace can reach the city of Dali Imperial Capital in one day.

However, many people have a vague guess that this should not be the original intention of the Dali Emperor Jiang Zhenyi, but should be the result of the joint pressure from the Dali Ten Ancestors.

After all, the Dali Emperor acted very unkindly this time, actually killing a nine-year-old child, who was of orthodox royal blood.

However, the most depressed person was Prince Guo Jiang Huan.

Originally, he thought that the Ten Great Patriarchs of Dali were going to attack Prince Yi's Mansion, so he took the initiative to play the role of "good guy". However, he found out in the end that he was worrying too much.

Even without him, the Tenth Ancestor of Dali would not have made things too difficult for Prince Yi.

But he was very curious about what the two of them talked about in the few days after he was sent away by the Sixth Patriarch, which made the Tenth Patriarch of Dali put so much effort into supporting Prince Yi's Palace.

Yes, it is support!
Because in addition to Heshuo Prefecture, the Ten Ancestors of Dali also placed the narrow and long red drought land within the territory of the Dali Dynasty under the jurisdiction of Prince Yi's Palace!

Although it is a barren land with no water at all, it is extremely vast, stretching from north to south, and is a veritable strategic location.

If used properly, it can connect to the northern border of Dali to the north; going straight south, it can cross the western part of the Xiqi Dynasty and reach the border of the Baiyue Dynasty.

With the land of Chihan in hand, the strength of Prince Yi's Mansion in Western Xinjiang has reached a new level.
