At this juncture, Emperor Yong, who had always been seen as a mere puppet, stepped forward. He led his troops to confront Zhuang Gao's forces at the front lines, effectively halting the Northern Expedition of the Zhuang army.
Even so, Yong Guo was still surrounded by enemies. Han Yin, guarding the Luolong Pass, died defending the capital. Han Xu led his army at Yima Plain, and he was not favored either.

But the second shocking thing happened.
The once neutral Mojia Holy Land sent a large number of disciples to join the Yong Kingdom. Overnight, a steel fortress rose in the plains of Yong Kingdom's vast expanse!
The hero is facing off against the Lock Dragon at the Lock Dragon Pass.
Han Xu personally named him Yin Ge, in memory of his father Han Yin.
Under a three-front war situation, Han Xu, relying on the newly built Yingge City, reached a ceasefire agreement with Zhuang Gaoxian in the shortest time and erected a stele as a pledge. Zhuang Gaoxian promised not to advance north again, and Han Xu also promised to abandon lost territories, thus ending the war between Zhuang Yong and them.
Upon Zhuang Gao's return to his home country, Han Xu swiftly returned to Jing'an Prefecture, leading the troops personally. He routed the notorious Iron Cavalry of the Red Horse Guard from the Kingdom of Jing, driving them out of their territory for three hundred miles.
Then General Xue Mingyi, Duke of Yongguo Martial Prowess, led his troops west to assist Prince Bei Gongyu of the British State. Together, they drove out the navies of Zhuang and Luó states from Lan'an Prefecture in a single decisive campaign, leaving the battlefield littered with corpses.
On this very day, Han Xu declared Mo Xue to be the national learning, abandoning the policy of "using a hundred schools for my own use" as practiced by states like Qin and Chu, choosing instead to govern with Moism. This choice was neither good nor bad; every country had its own different approach. Jing Guo, which exclusively venerated the Daoist school, was powerful and ambitious. Even Qin, the hegemon of the western frontier, who controlled a hundred schools, was not without its own unique stance.
The greater significance lies in this being the first time, in a true sense, that Mojia has had its own supported nation.
In the past, Mohist disciples traveled throughout the states, upholding justice and helping people, without being confined to a specific region or city. Like the legalists with their three punishments and palaces, and Confucianists with their four great academies, they focused on their doctrines and didn't prioritize national borders.
But from then on, the Mohists would inevitably pour a massive amount of human and material resources into Yong. As the current prominent sect, although perhaps just a small attempt by the Mo school, no one could ignore the potential changes it might trigger.
And the support from the Ink Gate undoubtedly proves Han Xu's potential.
From then on, the Yong Nation emerged from a perilous situation like an egg about to crack, and peace was restored throughout the land.
From this day forward, Han Xu was truly recognized by the world as Emperor Yong. It was he who pulled the country back from the brink of ruin, saving it from destruction and rejuvenating this aging nation!
Looking back on the entire conflict, this four-nation war that attracted global attention, the biggest winner was undoubtedly the Zhuang Kingdom.
In this national war, Zhuang Guo occupied the entire Qicang mountain range, the entire Lingbei Prefecture, and half of Yiyang Prefecture south of Suolong Pass.

Now, the territory from Zuo Long Guan to the Qicang Mountain Range has been unified and formally incorporated into Zhuang Country's territory. It will be Zhuang Country's fourth county, named Yongchang.
After Zhuang Gao's triumphant return to the capital, he left behind a force of one hundred thousand troops stationed in Yongchang County. They controlled the vital Luolong Pass, facing off against the city of Yinge.
And while the renowned cavalry of the State of Jing, the Chima Guard, was deployed, they were unable to capture the city of Jingshan, which was well defended by Qi Mao Xian, the official residing there. Instead, they were forced to retreat by Han Xu, who had returned from the high plains of Tingzhuang, suffering a heavy defeat and fleeing beyond the borders of Yong.
The naval forces of the State of Lu and the Qingjiang Water Division entered Lan in alliance, achieving a temporary advantage at first. However, after Hou Wugong arrived, Bei Gongyu suddenly exerted himself, driving out all the Zhuang and Lu naval forces from beyond the border.
In this national war, although Yong State suffered heavy losses and sacrificed its only living Grandmaster Han Yin, losing a large amount of territory in the Southern Region, it was ultimately a loss in both personnel and land.

But with military and political power formally handed over to Han Xu and backed by the support of the Mo Sect, reforms from top to bottom encountered little resistance during this war and ushered in a new era.

The distant Jing State and the adventure-stricken Luo State, they ended up making a fruitless expedition.
Of course, ordinary people wouldn't know that Han Yin's death was the result of a joint effort between Han Xu and Zhuang Gaoxian. They wouldn't know that the British Duke Bei Gongyu chose to make a sudden move only after the situation in the imperial court had been decided at the Mo Gate meeting.
They were unaware that Han Xu's ascension to power was not as smooth and natural as they perceived. The bloodshed that flowed in the shadows, the severed heads, remained hidden from them.
The changing times clearly affect millions of people, but the moments that decide these changes seem to have nothing to do with ordinary people.
The people of Yong Nation were either still gripped by the fear of its destruction, or already celebrating their newfound freedom.
Only the people originally from Yongguo in Lingbei Prefecture were being relocated to large numbers to Zhuangdi. Those who remained also had to start getting used to their new identity as Zhuang Guo people.
This is no longer Yongguoling North Prefecture, this is Zhuangguo Yongchang County.
The standard for those who moved to Zhuang State from other locations was if they had blood feuds with the Zhuang army, they would be dispersed and relocated within. Those who remained were mostly people who originally had no land or property. These people had the lowest sense of belonging to Yong Country. At the same time, a large number of landless people also moved from Zhuang territory to fill Ye Chang County. After several generations of development, this place could truly become Zhuang State's land.
Those who had originally been driven to Luolong Pass were spared from their fate by the sudden turn of events in the war. Instead of marching towards certain death, they were redirected across the Qichang Mountains and dispersed into various villages, where they began new lives.

Jiang Liu Yue is in charge of such work.

Since the war was over, this kind of work offered little merit or recognition from the academies, so it wasn't surprising that few disciples were willing to take it on. However, because his performance in the war hadn't been particularly impressive and he had received very little merit, he couldn't afford to refuse this assignment.
Forcing ordinary people to flee their homes was also something he couldn't stomach, but compared to sending them to their deaths, it was much better.
At least under Zhuang Ting's rule, the people of the Zhuang Kingdom lived relatively well.
The entire Yongmin migration was nominally overseen by the Guo Yuan Sacrificial Wine Official, but in practice, a fellow student named Fu Huasong was responsible for the details.
Under Brother Fu's care, Jiang Liyue felt much more relaxed and natural. Because Brother Fu was not harsh towards those who were relocated to Yong City. To put it in his words when he reprimanded some brutal students— "Do you harm the common people"

These common people are now tenant farmers and should no longer be treated as if there is a war between the two armies.
This large-scale migration often resulted in a high casualty rate. But thanks to Fu Baosong's meticulous and careful planning, the number of casualties was relatively low.
Compared to Senior Brother Lin Zhengren, Senior Brother Lin might be stronger, and following Senior Brother Lin might offer more benefits. However, working with Senior Brother Fu feels the most secure in my heart.
Fu Baosong had no idea what his fellow students thought, nor did he know why the National Academy's chief priest valued him so highly. He simply lived a humble life, working diligently and honestly, just as he always had, and would continue to do so in the future.
It was during the coldest time of year that he, with gritted teeth, obtained a large supply of cotton clothes from the military supplies officer and was in the process of distributing them along the way to his fellow comrades.
When he looked up, he seemed to see a vaguely familiar side profile in the crowd.
After thinking about it, it seems to be Zhang Linchuan from Fenglin City Academy. The one who showed up at the Three Cities Discourse and was proficient in using thunder magic.
The person who broke into the Wangjiang City Daoist temple that night also called himself Zhang Linchuan.
But the side profile of a person in the crowd was only a fleeting glimpse.
Fu Baosong put down what he was doing and searched carefully, but he couldn't find it again.
ps: Han Xu's entire plan should be clear after this chapter. Actually, there are some scenes I wanted to write, like the scene where Yin Ge City rose from the ground. It would have been quite impressive. But I was afraid readers wouldn't like it, so I skipped it. Basically, I will mostly follow my own creative ideas, but when there is room, I am also willing to consider your feelings.
It's a failure for an author to have to explain the plot to the reader. It means the work itself isn't convincing enough, so I didn't offer any explanations, just a bit of reassurance.
Yesterday, I said at least four times to people not to look at my heart. It was really embarrassing. In the future, I will try my best not to argue with everyone.
Sometimes, please bear with my fragile heart.
