All the soldiers surrounded General Lin and persuaded him. When they talked about the situation at that time, their eyes were red. It was obvious that they had all cried.

Yu Youyao’s heart skipped a beat. She saw Madam Ming standing in the crowd dejectedly. A few veteran soldiers surrounded her and said some comforting words.

General Ming Wei…

Yu Youyao suddenly felt a lump in her throat, and tears instantly rushed out of her eyes.

On the way to Jinzhou, Yin Huaixi often told her about the army. He mentioned General Ming Wei many times and kindly called him Uncle Ming. He even said that when she went to f.u.xin, he would bring her to meet General

Ming Wei.

His tone was filled with respect.

Yin Huaixi was arrogant and rebellious by nature. He was not very convinced by his father, King Li of Zhou. Thus, she was also very curious about General Ming Wei, whom Yin Huaixi admired.

Little did she know…

The camp was in chaos. General Lin’s eyes turned red with anger. He was filled with pain and grief, but also anger at expecting better from someone. He punched Yin Huaixi repeatedly.

Although General Lin was old, he was still strong. When he punched Yin

Huaixi, Yin Huaixi remained silent and allowed General Lin to punch him. General Lin was furious. “Yin Huaixi, why aren’t you saying anything? Say something. If you have the guts, explain to me and let others explain for you.

Who do you think you are? You’re a coward.”

Yu Youyao stood there in a daze. Yin Huaixi was covered in blood. It was obvious that he had experienced a b.l.o.o.d.y battle. She saw that his face was swollen, and that the usually high-spirited person suddenly fell silent.

Her heart ached.

She wanted to rush forward to stop General Lin, but she knew that this was not Yin Huaixi’s wish.

A young general immediately couldn’t take it anymore and shouted, “Stop fighting, General Lin. Don’t fight anymore. His Highness just experienced a b.l.o.o.d.y battle yesterday…”

“It’s not Your Highness’s fault. It’s because of that dog, Meng Duo, who’s too despicable and shameless. In the past two to three years, he’s been silently capturing the citizens of the Great Zhou Dynasty at the border. In the past few years, most of the missing citizens of the Great Zhou Dynasty have been secretly captured by them. How could Your Highness know that dog had some sinister schemes?”

“It was the f*cking Di people who caused General Mingwei’s death. How can you blame it on His Highness? How can you bring pain to your people and bring joy to your enemy?”

“They killed our people and insulted our soldiers…”

“F*ck, they killed our people and humiliated our soldiers. They planned to mess with our army’s morale and destroy our morale. They broke our army’s soul and stepped on the corpses of the 300,000-man You army. With the blood of the 300,000-man You army, they stepped on our rivers and mountains and destroyed our country and our race. It was His Highness who led us to win this battle, so the Di people did not succeed.”

“Your Highness is mighty…”

“Your Highness is mighty…”

The soldiers’ suppressed sorrow turned into respect for Yin Huaixi and anger for the Northern Barbarians.

General Lin looked dejected and finally relaxed his fists.

Yu Youyao wiped her tears. She finally understood that this experienced old general had put in a lot of effort into this move just now.

The Di people had used hundreds of Great Zhou commoners to provoke the You soldiers, causing their morale to be unstable and low. General Ming Wei had used his own life and the lives of hundreds of You soldiers to recover the morale of the army. Under Yin Huaixi’s lead, they had won this battle.

However, what happened after that?

Could the soldiers really let go of the fact that hundreds of their fellow citizens had died at the hands of their compatriots?

As a respected and extremely prestigious general who was deeply loved by the soldiers, General Ming Wei’s death was a huge blow to the army.

As for King Yue Fei, who was supposed to bear all of this, he could only watch helplessly as the Di people killed the citizens of the Great Zhou. He watched helplessly as General Ming Wei and hundreds of soldiers tempting fate.

As a young general and a commander who had guarded the North for three years before he revealed himself, although Yin Huaixi was peerlessly smart, he was not a general who had been through hundreds of battles. He would definitely be questioned.

The main general’s prestige plummeted.

The morale of the army was unstable.

This was a huge taboo.

General Lin put all the soldiers’ dissatisfaction and doubts on the table and questioned Yin Huaixi. He wanted to use this method to let the soldiers know who the real enemy of the soldiers was!

The soldiers shared a common enemy and directed all their anger at the Di people.

Only then would they have the conviction to continue fighting.

As expected of an experienced old general who could oversee the rear. He understood people’s hearts and was proficient in understanding the world.

Yin Huaixi walked up to Madam Ming and knelt in front of her without saying a word. He handed her an urn.

After the battle, the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, collected the corpses of the soldiers who had sacrificed themselves, and cleared out the post-war supplies, including swords, armor, dry food, and even dead warhorses.

Most of the corpses of the soldiers would be sent back to the camp to hold a funeral in the army. There were also corpses that would be burned on the battlefield because they had long died without complete corpses.

General Ming Wei was like this.

Madam Mings hands trembled as she took the urn. She held back her tears and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Get up. This isn’t your fault. The Di people are too despicable. No one can predict all of this. If Old Ming didn’t give the order, the soldiers would have lost their fighting spirit. Their morale will be unstable, and their morale will be low. They’ll be defeated. Everyone will die in battle. Old Ming didn’t die for you. He died for all the soldiers behind him, for the thousands of commoners behind the soldiers. He died in a worthy and happy manner.”

Hearing Madam Mings words, the entire army immediately choked.

There was a tragic scene.

Yin Huaixi’s eyes turned red. “However, I should have been the one to give this order, and I should have been the one to shoot this arrow. This is my responsibility as the commander, but I’ve disappointed the soldiers! So Uncle Ming stood up…”

Four to five hundred Great Zhou citizens were lined up in front. Everyone knew that these people would not survive. However, as the main general, he could not give the order to kill them, so he could only retreat and plan later.

As an old general who had been through hundreds of battles, General Ming Wei knew very well that once the Di people’s actions defeated the morale of his army, it would be extremely difficult for the You army to revive their morale.

If the Di people took advantage of the victory to pursue them, their army would be in danger!

This was why General Ming Wei had generously died.

Madam Ming endured her grief and interrupted him. “You didn’t disappoint the soldiers. You’re the backbone of the You army. If you gave the order to kill, the backbone of the You army will be broken. Old Ming trusts you. He knows that he has sacrificed himself. If you can lead the entire army to win this battle and avenge him, hundreds of soldiers, and those commoners, his sacrifice won’t be in vain. He’s proud of you.”

If he didn’t trust Yin Huaixi, how could he have courted death without any hesitation?

Yin Huaixi immediately did not know what to say.

Madam Ming smiled and cried, looking gratified. “l heard from the soldiers just now that you arranged your troops and killed more than 30,000 people from the Di army in your first confrontation with the Di people. You defeated the Di people, making them flee in a sorry state. Hundreds of people on our side were sacrificed in exchange for the lives of more than 30,000 Di people..

This battle is worth it!”
