The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 1118: Chapter 423: My Husband Is the Supporting Male Character (Part 22)_3

The prestige of the He Family Army is no longer prominent, nor is the He Family’s brilliance as flourishing as before; only when the next generation rises can the He Family’s legacy be preserved!

Yet, at the sight of his daughter, He Jing’s mind was flooded with numerous thoughts in just a brief moment.

In the end, he made a decisive choice, completely handing over military power to He Tiantian.

He Jing returned to the Capital City for recuperation under the escort of his trusted aides, while his confidant deputy generals and tens of thousands of Northwest Army remained at the Border City to await He Tiantian’s command.

These deputy generals are different from Liu Sheng and Wang Kui.

They were nurtured and promoted by the He Family, extremely loyal to the He Family.

Even though He Tiantian is a woman, even though she is young and on her first campaign, but she bears the surname He and has He Jing’s backing, so everyone instinctively trusts her.

He Tiantian did not disappoint the trust of the generals.

After sending off He Jing and reorganizing the army, He Tiantian began to respond to the Hulu.

The Hulu still used guerrilla tactics as usual.

With one or two thousand troops, they would randomly harass a certain Border City.

When the Border City was in emergency, the Northwest Army would rush to aid without rest.

But when a large force arrived at the Border City, the Hulu would have long vanished, turning to harass the next Border City.

The Northwest Army seemed to be constantly rescuing, rescuing, yet couldn’t even catch a glimpse of the Hulu.

Not to mention the troops being exhausted and weary, even the supplies couldn’t withstand such consumption!

He Tiantian didn’t want to be led by the nose by the Hulu; she wanted to strike directly at the Hulu Royal Court.

Of course, He Jing and several generations of He ancestors also wanted to break through the Hulu Royal Court, but alas, they are nomads.

In the vast expanse of desert and grassland, unfamiliar terrain made finding a moving Royal Court truly difficult.

Do they think all generals are like the Champion Marquis, able to find the Hulu main force without navigation?

For most ordinary generals, ensuring they don’t get lost would already be quite an achievement.

He Tiantian: ... Haha, sorry, I have a cheat!

So, just as He Jing’s party arrived in the Capital City, before the mother and son or the couple could reunite and recuperate properly, good news came from the Northwest—

”Chief He penetrated two thousand miles into the grassland, defeating the main force of the Hulu Royal Court.”

”Various Hulu hurriedly returned to aid, only to be ambushed by Chief He, suffering a great defeat, retreating three hundred miles!”

The Hulu are defeated?

The Hulu, troublesome like a malignant growth, had their main force eliminated, unable to harass the Dayuan Border City in the near future?!

Setting aside others, even He Jing, who viewed his daughter through the lens of familial affection and unwavering faith, had an unreal feeling.

Um, well, even if the younger surpasses the older, even if the waves behind push the waves ahead, this is too damn unbelievable.

Their Tiantian, leading tens of thousands of troops for the first time, launching a large-scale war for the first time, actually won?!

And won so beautifully, so miraculously?!

This is no longer a mere glorification of the family name but destined to be recorded in historical annals.

The Emperor was also overjoyed, have the Hulu truly been vanquished?

Oh no, not wiped out, but the threat to the Border City has been temporarily lifted!

For Dayuan, which is harassed annually, gaining a few years or even a decade of peace is a wonderful thing.

Not to mention the savings in provisions and military expenses.

The current Emperor is not a Wise Emperor, not because he doesn’t wish to be, but due to limited ability.

Fortunately, this Emperor has self-awareness, is broad-minded, and accommodates wise ministers and capable generals.

But, as an Emperor, every one of them hopes to become a sovereign for the ages.

Originally, the Emperor thought he could only be a mediocre ruler managing the realm.

Yet ”He Tian” gave him a tremendous surprise—during his reign, the Hulu, which troubled Dayuan’s Northwest for over a century, were finally defeated.

Assuredly a historical feat, undoubtedly a Wise Emperor.

Moreover, ”He Tian” is a woman, yet the Emperor could boldly promote and entrust her with a heavy responsibility.

This also attests to his wisdom, being open-minded and appointing based on talent.

”Haha! Good! How splendid, Chief He! Truly, a daughter of the He Family, truly my Royal Family’s daughter-in-law! Good!”

The Emperor excitedly praised, and incidentally found his troublesome son Zhou Jin to be a bit more pleasing to the eye.

Zhou Jin: ... Completely numbed.

When he married He Tian, he was suspected of living off a woman’s achievements.

Now even better, ”He Tian” became famous with one battle, and her accomplishments rival those of the Champion Marquis.

Regardless of the present or future history, ”He Tian” is destined to become a legendary figure.

As for Zhou Jin, the dignified Prince, he could only become the ”man behind He Tian.”

Others mention Zhou Jin, not referring to the Seventh Prince or Prince Qi, but as the ”husband of Dayuan’s first female general!”

Zhou Jin felt both resentment and envy, yet dare not express them. He was about to choke in frustration...
