Chapter 481 - 481 Great General

481 Great General

Jiang Yue walked over silently. After making sure that no one was paying attention to them, she took out the tiger-shaped token and showed it to Xue Yan. She asked in a low voice,”Is this the tiger tally?”

Xue Yan was shocked with the sudden mention of the tiger tally. He looked around and asked nervously in a low voice, “Where did you get it?”

This was no different from answering her that it was a tiger tally.

“I picked it up from someone, it fell out of his body,” Jiang Yue replied.

“Who?” Xue Yan was startled, his voice lowered and he became more nervous. He didn’t even wash the tomatoes on his hands properly.

One had to be a great general to be able to have a tiger tally!

“He’s behind that alley.” She pointed at the alley. “He’s injured, so we have to send him to Doctor Shen.”

Xue Yan was not in a hurry to send the person to the medical center. Jiang Yue had returned and had not immediately sent the person to Shen’s Medical Center. It was enough to show that the person could survive for a while longer.

In addition, he knew that the owner of the tiger tally must be someone of high status. He was even more anxious to find out who this person was. So, he took the tiger tally and looked at the bottom of it. At the bottom of the tiger tally, there were not only two words Da Ling, but also the word South. This was the tiger tally for mobilizing 200,000 soldiers of the southern battlefront army.

Now, apart from the Emperor, no one else in Da Ling could mobilize 200,000 soldiers of the southern battlefront army. This meant that this person must be Shao Shuting!

“It’s Shao Shuting…” Xue Yan mumbled in a daze.

At this time, Shao Shuting was only 26 years old. He was not only the southern general, but also the third brother of the current Emperor Shao. He was also the uncle of the missing Crown Prince. He had met Shao Shuting in his past life before.

At that time, he was already the Prime Minister, because the Shao family had never acknowledged Yi Xuanyuan as the Emperor. They felt that Shu Xuanyuan’s disappearance and his subsequent death were all the work of Yi Xuanyuan’s mother and maternal grandfather’s family. Yi Xuanyuan’s throne was s.n.a.t.c.hed by Shu Xuanyuan, so Yi Xuanyuan should not inherit the throne. Therefore, ever since Yi Xuanyuan inherited the throne, the Shao family occupied the South like a fear;ess tiger, not kowtowing or declaring themselves subjects to the Emperor.

However, because the Shao family had been loyal for generations, and they were not willing to become the Emperor, they were in a deadlock with Min Xuanyuan.

It was only after Min Xuanyuan sent him to persuade the Shao family to surrender that he finally met Shao Shuting.

At that time, Shao Shuting was already in his forties.

Naturally, no one in the Shao family would submit to him. When the Crown Prince Shu Xuanyuan was found, he died a miserable death. It was said that he was cut into eight pieces. Therefore, when Emperor Shao saw him, he was driven mad. This enmity, this hatred, plus the fact that Hao Xuanyuan made Shu Xuanyuan the Crown Prince but didn’t make Yi Xuanyuan the Crown Prince made him go crazy because he was the legitimate heir to the throne. The Shao family never acknowledged Yi Xuanyuan. Even if Yi Xuanyuan had already ascended the throne, they would still not acknowledge him.

Later on, the Shao family had suffered a war in the South. 600,000 soldiers from other countries invaded the country. In order to prevent the other countries from entering Da Ling and causing harm to the people, the Shao family led the southern army and vowed to defend the country to the death.

InThe Shao family had finally lowered their proud heads. For the sake of the people of the South and for the sake of Da Ling’s well-being, they had submitted to Yi Xuanyuan and requested for his reinforcements.

He was the Prime Minister at the time, so he immediately asked the Emperor to send troops to defend against the enemy. Yi Xuanyuan agreed, but the reinforcements were too late. Not a single person from the Shao family and the southern army survived.

The South was plunged into a state of misery and suffering.

Corpses were everywhere when they arrived.
