Night began to cover the Biluo Mausoleum, the Prajna Corridor and the yellow sand desert behind the Prajna Corridor.
More and more shambling white giant elephants and Elephant Army sergeants gathered behind a sand dune where the wind and sand flowed violently, and the metal-containing gravel made a continuous whimpering sound under the friction.
In the process of escaping, except for a very small number of Divine Elephant Army sergeants who lost their way or encountered other accidents and were unable to rejoin, nearly a thousand Divine Elephant Army sergeants were all gathered here intact.
However, most of the white elephants died in the process of escaping.
Now, only more than 300 adult giant elephants and more than 100 baby elephants can reach here.
The fact that more than 300 adult giant elephants and more than 100 baby elephants are still alive today is purely related to luck. The poison administered by Qingluan Academy should be a compound poison, which is divided into cornmeal and corn flour.
The more there are, the more powerful the medicine is. The young elephants only ate cornmeal and were not seriously poisoned, so they all survived. And these more than 300 adult elephants were slightly less poisoned than the other large numbers of elephants, so
Only then can I persist until now.
These are the only ones left of the one thousand or hundreds of sacred elephants. Even so, among the more than three hundred adult white sacred elephants, there is still not one of them falling to the ground in mourning, with pink blood spraying from their mouths and noses like a fountain.
In the end, it is not known how many of the more than 300 adult white elephants will die and how many will survive.
Amidst the continuous screams and crashes of giant elephants, the faces of all the Elephant Army sergeants became more and more bleak. They started with small wails, and eventually many people began to howl and cry uncontrollably.
The shouts rang throughout the city, even covering up the sound of the singing sand dunes.
The Elephant Army is finished.
The power and pride of the Elephant Army all come from these white elephants.
Without these elephant mounts that are powerful enough to overturn a turret, what can this thousand-man elephant army be? At most, it can only be regarded as a heavily armored infantry, or an infantry without supplies.
.
This sudden collapse of their usual pride and self-confidence caused these Elephant Army sergeants to completely collapse and feel that they had nothing left.
The painful cries echoed non-stop. Without the golden armor and tattoos on his body, those who saw it would never have been able to imagine that this was a powerful force that even the entire Biluoling Army did not pay attention to.
Elephant Army.
"What are you crying for? Even if you die, there is nothing to be afraid of."
A sharp shout rang out amidst the heart-rending wails. The pattern on the golden armor of the young general who made the sound was obviously more detailed, and faint fluctuations of vitality flowed. At the moment he uttered the voice, among the runes on his golden armor
A faint Buddhist light emitted from his eyes, illuminating his pale but extremely cold face. He was Fan Mingning, the deputy commander of the Divine Elephant Army. When Lin Xi and others attacked, he wanted to stay with Fan Shaohuang to protect him, but
But he was expelled by Fan Shaohuang.
"Even if all these adult giant elephants die, these more than a hundred baby elephants should be able to hold on and still survive."
"Don't forget that our sacred elephant army only had more than a hundred sacred elephants at the beginning."
Fan Mingning knew that he could not be weak at this time, so his face became calmer and calmer, and became colder and devoid of other expressions. "Our elephant army is not dead yet. At worst, we still have more than a hundred baby elephants.
There is still money to make a comeback.”
"But..." someone said.
But he was immediately interrupted expressionlessly, "I know what you want to say. Without the support of ordnance or even food, you still doubt whether you can survive. But don't forget that despair can only make your death easier."
.Don’t forget that we are not far from Biluo Mausoleum, which is rich in water and grass. With most of the idols already dead, it is not difficult for us to find a place to hide and survive.”
"Even the Xiyi people can survive. We are still stronger than the Xiyi people, and we can still become stronger in the future. Why can't we survive?"
The surrounding area of Mingsha Dune gradually became quiet.
All the sergeants of the Elephant Army became silent, then began to check the status of all the living elephants, began to rest, and waited for the next order.
Fan Mingning also sat down silently and began to rest.
Looking at the sand in front of him, he knew that it was actually impossible for the finished Divine Elephant Army to recover. Because the previous Divine Elephant Army could become strong and develop because of Tang Zang's support.
Zang needed the divine elephant army to threaten Yunqin, but now, their divine elephant army was not only the enemy of most people in Qingluan Academy and Yunqin, but also the enemy of Tang Zang.
At this moment, Fan Mingning still couldn't understand the true meaning of Fan Shaohuang's request for him not to take revenge. He just silently thought that if this divine elephant army still had a meaning, then the meaning could only be to avenge their general.
, to avenge these killed elephant companions.

…
In the deep night, a pigeon flew into Zhongzhou City.
The pigeon flew very familiarly to the northwest corner of the most powerful city in the world, and landed in a street.
However, the extremely tired pigeon immediately became very confused and helpless.
The place it arrives should be a secluded small courtyard, and the people in this small courtyard will immediately provide it with the best water and food so that it can rest here.
It also vaguely understands that what it carries on its feet should be extremely useful to the people here, otherwise the people here will never give it the warmest and best hospitality.
However, now, this quiet little courtyard has become a piece of broken walls and ruins, and has become a charred place.
This exhausted pigeon, unable to fly again, landed helplessly on a blackened broken wall, waiting.
In its small head, it thought that since the things it carried on its feet were extremely important to the people here, even if the place was destroyed, the people here would still visit it from time to time, so that it could still get a lot of benefits.
Nice hospitality.
However, it waited for a long time, until it became even more exhausted and could not even move its body, but still no one appeared in front of it.
After spending a day and a night, the pigeon that never waited for anyone to take care of it finally died.
Its corpse rotted at the end of the summer in the Yunqin Empire without anyone knowing, and the secret volume it carried on its feet also fell into the cracks of the burnt wall, washed away by the rain, buried by the dust, and finally completely
disappear into this world.
What this pigeon thought about the thing on its feet before it died was actually not wrong. What it carried on its feet was indeed a crucial secret for the entire Yunqin, and even the entire world, but it didn't.
What comes to mind is that before it flew towards Zhongzhou City, Zhongzhou City had already ushered in a new era. Many people died when the old era ended and the new era came.
Many people or institutions belonging to different forces died or disappeared in some chaos. It was like a huge wave hit, and many small boats that had nothing to do with it were also destroyed.
The emperor's break with the Jiang family, and then with the Zhong family and many other clans, caused chaos throughout Zhongzhou City. Many people died, many institutions were destroyed, and it was not even clear who was responsible. And
In just a short time, the midsummer in Yunqin has not completely passed, but there is only a hint of autumn, and the sequelae caused by the battle between the emperor and the nine elders have quickly appeared.
Even though Jiang Yanzhi was assassinated in the street, the other clans still maintained restraint. They all suspected that it was not the emperor. The first step they thought of was to force Wen Xuanshu to step down. No one expected that the emperor would ignore the state system and
Completely crazy... No one thought that the emperor would dare to risk the whole Yunqin completely falling apart and act crazy, so all the clans suffered a loss in response, so the following is inextricably linked to Xianyi Academy
, the Zhong family, who never thought that the fire would burn themselves, were caught off guard and suffered extremely heavy losses.
However, the strength of these clans and their influence on Yunqin and the Imperial City of Zhongzhou are naturally more than just the number of practitioners and a few holy masters on the surface.
Even the Huang family, which was the first to withdraw on its own and collapsed under the emperor's previous pressure, and the Jiang family, which suffered a bloody purge, were still able to plot and jointly take down the entire Biluo Mausoleum.
The Zhong family suffered a sudden change and was encircled and suppressed by the Zhongzhou Army and the Zhongzhou Imperial City. Many important figures of the Zhong family still escaped from the Zhongzhou Imperial City.
Over the years, these clans and clans that have supported Yun Qin have criss-crossed the court. Cleaning out the influence of these clans is equivalent to completely eradicating some originally perfect court institutions.
The entire Zhongzhou City and Yunqin Chaotang were originally like countless closely linked gears. However, with the fall of these clans and the subsequent series of counterattacks, various departments, whether openly or covertly,
, all suffered serious losses. In some cases, the entire organization was uprooted. The most critical thing is that the death of key people who were responsible for many of the joints not only made it impossible for these departments to resume operation for a while, but also many
Secrets, upline and downline communications, and even some personnel assigned abroad were all lost with the sudden death of such a key figure.
Some agencies in various departments were completely paralyzed in just over ten days, and some were even unable to recover at all.
Whether it was the court or the private arrangements of the powerful, there were suddenly countless obstructions and fractures.
Even if it is the simplest order from the imperial city to the Zhongzhou Army, many unimaginable accidents may occur. It may even be difficult for military orders to reach the hands of some generals who should know. Some of the orders should have been
Secret reports that are quickly delivered to some powerful people may even be completely disconnected due to the complete breakage of some links and the death of some key secret figures, and they cannot be delivered to those powerful people at all for a while.
…
It was late at night, but several high-ranking officials from the Zhengwu Division were extremely eager to enter the palace in sedan chairs to meet the emperor for urgent matters.

(The next chapter will be tomorrow morning. I haven’t slept very much in the past two days. I am a little too tired. It is also the most complicated part to write, so it will be more difficult. There will be less explanatory words. I will use what I am good at.
The experiences of some representative figures and their performance in the changes of this era are summarized to show the process of this era, the passing of some old people and the rise of the new generation. Through a few separate stories, the whole world is brought together.
I have already thought about the story in my mind, but due to time and mental state, it is still very difficult. I hope I can finally write the book and things I want. Please give me more encouragement.)
