Chapter 171 – Glory
by Salted Fish — Historically, when the Emperor bestowed banquets, they were usually for civil officials. In recent years, there hadn't been much warfare, so this sudden victory had bolstered the Ministry of War's spirits. Since taking up his post in the capital as Minister of War, Secretary Lei Ming had felt rather stifled, having grown accustomed to freedom and indulgence during his time in the provinces. Although the Secretary of War was also a member of the Grand Council, in times of peace, he wielded less power…

Chapter 170 – The Ceremony of Presenting Captives
by Salted Fish — Xu Chun hadn't slept so soundly in a long time. He was actually embarrassed to admit to Xie Yi that he had been shaken for days after seeing the gruesome sight of limbs flying on the battlefield for the first time. He would jump at every loud noise he heard, and it was difficult for him to swallow red meat, blood, and other similar foods. He couldn't sleep well at night either, waking up frequently. His servants—Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter—all noticed and worried. Winter Sea gave him…

Chapter 169 – Seeking a Title
by Salted Fish — Steam rose from the warm water in the spacious bath, fragrant lotus petals floating on the surface. Beside the Jade Poppy Pond, reed mats held neatly folded clothes for changing. On one side, a glass screen depicted a pair of golden red carp playing in the water, now draped with discarded garments. Xu Chun, his face flushed, knelt on a cushion, hands resting on his thighs. His muscles tensed to the point of stiffness from anxiety. He shifted his toes uneasily but was stopped by the cool, round jade ruyi…

Chapter 168 – Returning Victorious
by Salted Fish — The battle at Changhu Gorge actually lasted two days and nights. The sun rose and set, the tide ebbed and flowed, and under the cover of darkness and fog, the Wokou pirates, their leader having been captured, finally left the battlefield with their remaining ships. In the eyes of Iwa Hide Tsuki, this battle was a hellish torment, but even from Xu Chun's perspective, it wasn't easy. Over a hundred ships were destroyed, countless corpses and broken sails floated on the sea—battlefield cleanup…

Chapter 167 – Boarding Combat
by Salted Fish — Even in his declining years, Iwauchi Hideyuki still vividly remembered that day's battle. They had been filled with greed and brutality, leading their elite samurai retainers onto the expensive and sturdy "Myriad Ages" ship. They never expected it to turn out to be such a hellish ordeal. Yes, only hell could describe what they had experienced that day. The evil demons ruthlessly reaped their lives, their lives and bodies being continuously fed to the millstone, ground and crushed. From the moment…

Chapter 166 – Impact
by Salted Fish — The Luminous Vessel stopped near Longhu Gorge, releasing a multitude of bamboo rafts that charged straight towards the minefield, triggering the naval mines. Buckets of tung oil were placed on the rafts, floating on the sea after being blasted by the mines. In an instant, a raging fire engulfed the surface of the sea, igniting every hastily laid naval mine they had set up. The mines exploded in unison, the sound of blasting mines filling the air, waves roared, thunder boomed across the sky, and tongues…

Chapter 165 – Phosphorescence
by Salted Fish — Yan Zhongxiuyue, clad in heavy armor, walked to the bow of the ship, gazing at the raging flames on the battlefield. The wing-like horns on his armor soared upward, resembling the wings of a bird. Narrowing his eyes, he looked at the golden-painted characters "Qianniu" on the distant black ship. His expression was inscrutable, and his adjutant, Asano Hiko, who stood beside him, said, "Sir, the enemy's artillery is formidable. You should seek shelter." Yan Zhongxiuyue asked, "I heard there are…

by Salted Fish — "The opposing fleet fled at the sight of us; we mustn't advance recklessly. Send out the reconnaissance centipede boats to trail from a distance, being wary of potential ambushes. The sky is darkening; don't linger too long." "First, have someone observe the draft conditions and assess the equipment." Nong Siji gave the orders and dispatched two centipede boats to conduct reconnaissance. Half a day later, the responsible centipede boats returned. Shi Xiaosi came aboard to report; Xu Chun recalled…

by Salted Fish — In the blink of an eye, it was mid-February, and the Imperial Examination, added due to the Emperor's birthday, commenced. Sitting high on the dais, Xie Yi thought about the previous top three scholars and felt a slight tinge of melancholy. As March approached, the peach blossoms began to reveal faint pink buds.
