The God of War is killing like crazy

Chapter 174 I recognize my husband as my elder brother (End)

After learning that his wife had run away with someone, the Duke of Zhenguo became unusually silent, going out every day to look for food and some herbs to treat Gu Chengyuan's injuries.

Fortunately, he had led troops in battles before and was often injured, so he knew many herbs. Gu Chengyuan was getting better day by day, and they, father and son, slowly walked towards the border between Da Zhou and Yu Kingdom together with many refugees.

The father and son looked at everything along the way. They had once led the soldiers of the Great Zhou to the border between the two countries, so they were very familiar with this route, but they no longer had the same mood as before.

The Great Zhou was no longer the Great Zhou that they had tried their best to protect. The Emperor of the Great Zhou had completely disappointed them. The sacrifices made by several generations of people in the Zhenguo Mansion had now gone to waste.

Gu Chengyuan, who lived a new life, asked himself in his heart, whom he had always wanted to protect in these two lives, the cold-blooded and ruthless Emperor of the Great Zhou, or the suffering people of the Great Zhou.

He thought about it for a long time and finally made a decision.

After his injuries healed and he was able to walk, Gu Chengyuan persuaded his father to flee to Yu State with the group of refugees.

He had no hatred towards the Emperor of Yu State. He hated Hong Yanshan more. Moreover, he had personally dealt with Hong Yanshan at Handan Pass, which was already his revenge.

Therefore, what he wanted to do now was to give the people of the Great Zhou a peaceful life. He failed to protect them in his previous life, and he could not bear to see them living in misery under the exploitation and oppression of the Emperor of the Great Zhou in this life.

Gu Chengyuan didn't expect that it would be so smooth to arrive in Yu Kingdom, but they had a little difficulty when escaping from the territory of Da Zhou. Fortunately, he gave the only valuable jade ring on him to the soldiers guarding the city, and he and his father were allowed to pass smoothly. Then he came to the territory of Yu Kingdom. Unexpectedly, after their identities were verified, they were allowed to enter.

Entering Yu Kingdom, one is overwhelmed by a feeling that is completely different from that of Great Zhou. The emperor of Yu Kingdom has been recuperating the people's livelihood, and now they live a prosperous life. The rosy-cheeked and energetic people of Yu Kingdom are in sharp contrast to the people of Great Zhou who are worried all day long and are almost unable to survive due to taxes. The people here are happy from the bottom of their hearts. Gu Chengyuan feels that he has made the right decision to come here. He thinks that if the little emperor of Yu Kingdom in his previous life had not been killed by Hong Yanshan, he could have really become a wise ruler.

I just don't know what his attitude towards me is. Gu Chengyuan suppressed his inner thoughts and was led by the soldiers to a specially prepared refugee shelter.

Every refugee here can live here for free for ten days, but must leave after ten days, so they must find a job within ten days. Gu Chengyuan also heard from the soldiers that if no work is found within ten days, men can go to the dock and take a ferry to the Chishui River to work and repair the bridge, while women can make clothes for the army or cook for the workers.

In Yu Country, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will not starve to death. The country will also provide porridge to refugees for free. The treatment is much better than that in Mulanhua or Da Zhou.

At night, Gu Chengyuan lay in bed, thinking about the jade ring he had given to the soldiers guarding the city of Great Zhou.

He thought of Si Ying, about whom there had been no news. Ever since the incident at the Gu family, he and his father had asked people to find out Si Ying's whereabouts. She had said at the beginning that she was going back to pay tribute to Uncle Ming, and then she hadn't come back since the incident at the Gu family. Gu Chengyuan was afraid that something had happened to her, and he was also afraid that she would go back to the capital.

Gu Chengyuan tossed and turned all night, but he didn't know that he would meet Si Ying soon.

The next day, the Gu family father and son wanted to follow the refugees to repair the bridge over the Chishui River. However, as soon as they arrived there, they saw a soldier leader shouting, "The Emperor and the Princess are on patrol. Everyone, please stand aside."

The father and son of the Gu family also quickly stepped aside and stood in the crowd. At this time, two people were riding horses in the distance. Gu Chengyuan had seen the emperor of Yu Kingdom on the battlefield, but the newly-appointed eldest princess of Yu Kingdom next to him looked at the familiar figure.

Gu Chengyuan couldn't believe it and said, "Ayao..."

Si Ying had already known from Tuan Tuan that Gu Chengyuan and Gu's father had come to Yu Country, and guessed that they would come to Chishui River, so she came here on purpose.

At this moment, she deliberately looked in the direction of the voice, her eyes looking towards Gu Chengyuan. The little emperor beside her also followed Si Ying's gaze and looked over there. It turned out to be Gu Chengyuan.

He didn't expect that Gu Chengyuan would really come to his Yu Kingdom. After all, the loyalty of the Duke of Zhenguo's family to the emperor and the country was well known to the world. However, thinking about what the Emperor of the Great Zhou did, he could also understand the difficulties of the father and son.

Hearing that the Emperor of the Great Zhou has been exploiting the people like crazy recently, more and more people from the Great Zhou have fled to their Yu Kingdom.

The little emperor was originally worried about what to do, but fortunately Si Ying gave him a series of solutions, which indeed solved the current problem.

His imperial cousin was really resourceful. The little emperor thought that when they were struggling to cross the Chishui River, it was his imperial cousin who found the tunnel left by his grandfather, which allowed them to catch the Great Zhou army off guard without losing a single soldier. It was his blessing to have the help of his imperial cousin.

When the little emperor saw Si Ying running towards Gu Chengyuan, he hurried to follow.

Then he discovered that his royal cousin knew Gu Chengyuan and his son.

Si Ying half-truthfully said that she met the Emperor of Yu Kingdom by accident. Gu Chengyuan was really surprised. After two lifetimes, he knew that A Yao was actually the princess of Yu Kingdom. The calm father Gu standing by had obviously guessed it long ago.

In this way, after Gu Chengyuan was completely cured under the treatment of the imperial physician of Yu State, he joined the army of Yu State.

Father Gu said that he was old and the future should be handed over to the young people, and he would be responsible for guiding them in training.

Both Gu and his son were good at leading troops. Under their training, a powerful army with strict discipline soon took shape. This also laid the foundation for the National Protection Army in the later period, which made the people feel at ease and the officials tremble with fear.

In fact, at first the people and soldiers of Yu Kingdom were somewhat repulsive to Gu father and son, but after learning that they were the eldest princess's adoptive father and brother, they all became fans of them and took good care of them in various ways, fearing that they would not be able to adapt to the climate and customs of Yu Kingdom.

Since they are the eldest princess’s family, they are our own.

The Gu family father and son felt the enthusiasm of the people of Yu Country and it took them several days to get used to it.

Gu Chengyuan finally had the chance to talk to Si Ying alone, "Ayao, I'm glad you're okay. I, my father and I, can no longer be your strong backing. Now we have to rely on you to take care of us..." Gu Chengyuan was a little embarrassed. He knew that all the preferential treatment they father and son received in Yu Country came from Si Ying.

Si Ying looked at him seriously and said, "No, you are still my strong support now. Brother Yuan wants to bring peace to the world, and both the army and the people need you."

Si Ying's words touched Gu Chengyuan's heart. Now it didn't matter to him which country he belonged to. What was important was to let the innocent people live a stable life.

The Emperor of Mulan, who had been watching the fun, never expected that one day he would be the one to suffer the consequences, because Gu Chengyuan led the Yu army to attack not the Great Zhou, but his Mulan Kingdom first.

The Mulan Kingdom was much weaker than the Yu Kingdom and the Great Zhou. Now that the Yu Kingdom’s army was supported by powerful soldiers and weapons, they were even more unable to defeat them. As a result, the Emperor of the Mulan Kingdom quickly surrendered.

The Yu army entered the capital of Mulan Kingdom all the way. No soldier killed innocent people indiscriminately. Instead, they gave food to refugees. The emperor of Yu Kingdom only confiscated the military power of the emperor of Mulan Kingdom and made him a prince. His treatment was also very good.

Soon the news that Mulan was conquered by Yu spread to Da Zhou. What the people of Da Zhou cared about more was that they heard that when the soldiers of Yu attacked the city, they did not harm any civilians but helped them instead. This gave the people of Da Zhou, who had been in dire straits, hope. Especially after they heard that it was Gu Chengyuan who led the Yu army, they all hoped that General Gu could bring the Yu army to rescue them quickly.

Then Gu Chengyuan really lived up to everyone's expectations. He led the Yu Kingdom army and fought his way into the Great Zhou. Wherever he went, the people lined the streets to welcome him. They were finally going to be liberated from the sea of ​​suffering.

It was thought that the Yu Kingdom quickly unified the Three Kingdoms, and the Emperor of Yu Kingdom changed the country's name to Dayu, and this would be a completely new country that was completely different from what Gu Chengyuan remembered in his previous life.
