"It's really... him!"

Fei Tian's face darkened slightly, and then a name that had been forgotten gradually became clear in his mind.

This name is Dengqiu!

In the past twenty years, from the former Dakang Dynasty to the current Daning, countless people have been lost in the long river of history, and they have also been forgotten forever.

There are also people who won't and will even be remembered, even if it's only a small number of people.

Deng Qiu is the latter!

The former Minister of War, Zuo Shilang, was deeply trusted by Emperor Long Jing and was an important official in the vassal control, but in the end he ended up being executed.

He was hated and cursed by many people, for oppressing loyal people, forming cliques for personal gain... and many other crimes.

But few people know that his true identity is the legacy of Emperor Long'an, and his sacrifice is an achievement.

It was also after Deng Qiu's death that Emperor Long Jing's attempt to suppress Guan Ning became increasingly difficult, giving Guan Ning an opportunity to rise!

Deng Qiu is a man of true faith!

Fei Tian asked himself that he was nothing compared to him. He was the most admirable person among the people left by Emperor Long'an.

It was only after Deng Qiu's death that the military department where he worked underwent great changes, which gave him the opportunity to rise to the top and reach where he is today.

Fei Tian admired Deng Qiu, and of course he wanted to do something for Deng Qiu.

The entire Deng family was raided and executed, and only one son, Deng Mingyuan, who was exiled, managed to escape.

Before the new dynasty was established, Fei Tian was already searching privately, but could not find any news about Deng Mingyuan.

He thought that Deng Mingyuan had an accident in Weizhou and had already lost his life. However, he did not expect that after so many years, Deng Mingyuan returned and would see such a big change. It was simply unbelievable!

"Has he really become the commander-in-chief of the Western Region Army?"

Fei Tian asked again uncertainly.

In his impression, although Deng Mingyuan was talented, he could not reach this level.

"yes!"

Pang Qingyun said: "This is the information sent back by the imperial concubine, and it has been confirmed many times."

"Deng Mingyuan went to the Western Regions with the merchants very early, and had a special opportunity to become the consort of the Dawan Kingdom in the Western Regions, and then he rose to prominence..."

Hearing these words, Fei Tian frowned and said, "Why does it feel so familiar?"

"You feel that way too?"

Pang Qingyun knows what Fei Tian wants to say?

Deng Mingyuan's development path is very similar to His Majesty's. They both have the experience of being a prince-in-law, and it is also very shocking.

For a Central Plains person to reach this level in the Western Regions, how much did he have to pay?

"What's even more amazing about Deng Mingyuan is that he opened up the road between the Western Regions and the Central Plains!"

"Um?"

Fei Tian frowned.

He knew that the Central Plains and the Western Regions were separated by vast deserts and majestic mountains. This natural barrier cut off the connection between the two places. Only merchants could venture through the desert, which was not suitable for large-scale army marches.

"He did get through."

Pang Qingyun said: "This is also the reason why the army of the Western Regions was able to come to the Central Plains."

"That's a bad thing and a good thing."

Fei Tian said: "With this open road, our Daning army can also go to the Western Regions!"

As the Minister of War, Fei Tian would naturally have such considerations. In fact, many officials had plans to retaliate.

In this Daning crisis, it was this army from the Western Regions that caused the greatest trauma to the country!

Because it was not expected in advance, its advance was sudden, and it cost a lot to stop it. The people's houses were empty, and the Anxi army also suffered heavy casualties!

Revenge is inevitable!

"What Deng Mingyuan wants is revenge."

Pang Qingyun paused and then said: "You probably know the reason, right?"

"revenge?"

Fei Tian said angrily: "His father made such a big sacrifice for the country, but he wants to take revenge on this country."

"But he doesn't know."

Fei Tian fell silent.

It is true that Deng Qiu’s affairs cannot be explained clearly, and few people know the truth.

"But even so, he can't forget that he is a member of this country!"

Fei Tian had an indescribable feeling.

The person he admired most...Deng Gong's son was the one who brought disaster to this country.

After a while, he regained his emotions and asked again: "Then you come to me because you want to..."

"You are the person who knows the truth best. The imperial concubine has written a letter and wants you to go north."

"Can!"

Fei Tian understood immediately.

If you tell Deng Mingyuan such a thing directly, I'm afraid he won't believe it at all.

And I am the one who knows the inside story directly.

"I will bring him back and bring him to his father's grave!"

Pang Qingyun continued: "The situation in the northwest has begun to stabilize after paying a great price. Your Majesty sent a northern-suppressing army earlier, and more troops have been transferred there one after another. It should be able to solve the problem."

"The imperial concubine means the same as you. Deng Mingyuan has committed a heinous crime, which is naturally unforgivable. However, after thinking that he is Deng Gong, he should be allowed to understand the truth, even after defeat, so that he can wake up and don't do it again.

Keep making mistakes!"

Hatred can blind people's eyes.

The end of this war does not mean that it is completely over.

If Deng Mingyuan remained true to his evil intentions and continued to instigate an advance to the Western Regions after returning from defeat, or if he continued to increase his troops at this time, this would be adding more mistakes to each other!

"When should I go?"

"Your Majesty will return to Beijing soon, and then he will go north. You will go with His Majesty then. Now you need to make some preparations in advance."

"Understood."

Fei Tian nodded and asked: "Is the war in the northwest stable?"

"The situation is about to turn around, Bai Shaoyuan is about to arrive."

Fei Tian looked heavy.

Daning really encountered a catastrophe this time. Even if the fighting in the southern border eased, it would still take some time to mobilize troops.

After all, we are traveling from the south to the north, and water from afar cannot quench our thirst near here.

“It’s not easy to persist until now!”

Fei Tian couldn't help but sigh.

Pang Qingyun also fully agreed. As a major military aircraft of Tiance Mansion, he also knew the detailed battle situation.

The tragedy of the Northwest War was beyond imagination. We paid a huge price to get to the current situation. Fortunately, it is about to turn around...

"Just wait, there should be good news in a few days."

Pang Qingyun whispered, and his eyes seemed to pass through many obstacles and reach the tragic battlefield...

In the 12th year of Yuanwu, March 18th.

Tongzhou in the northwest, Shanlingguan.

The setting sun is like blood, and the cold wind is biting.

His left arm suddenly waved, and the round war shield came forward, pushing away the scimitar that was slashed from outside the city wall. Without any hesitation, Wu Chi raised his right arm high, holding the copper in his hand.

The hammer struck straight down.

"ah!"

Along with a scream, a heavily armored warrior who was trying to climb up the ladder from the ladder to the top of the city was hit and fell under the city wall.

Under the city head, beside the cloud ladder.

There were no living warriors from the Western Regions, but not far away there were nearly a hundred warriors rushing toward them with large shields held high.

They came under the city wall, raised their left hand to protect the shield above their heads, and at the same time grabbed the ladder with their right hand and climbed quickly.

"Brothers, cheer up, the enemy's attack is coming again!"
