Great Tang: I Told You to Return East, and You Went and Took the Throne?

For fifty years, the Western Regions have stood isolated, and the whole city is filled with white-haired soldiers.

After transmigrating to the day Kucha fell, Feng Yuhuo looked at the old soldiers, whose average age was sixty and who still defended Han territory to the death. He was furious.

Before Grand Protector Guo Xin died in battle, he left Feng Yuhuo the only path to survival.

Bound to the [Undying Heroes Hall] System, he led three thousand battered troops on a perilous journey east, pursued and besieged by a hundred thousand Tibetan cavalry.

No food? He used the System to exchange for modern military overcoats and canned beef, so the veterans could eat meat at every meal!

Overwhelming enemy forces? He used flintlock rifles and cannons to blast a bloody path all the way east!

After enduring countless hardships, when these old soldiers finally returned to Chang'an in tattered clothes, they were met not with praise, but with suspicion and a stripping of their authority by the court.

Feng Yuhuo placed a hand on the long saber at his waist and, before all the officials of the court, cleaved the imperial edict in two:

"Our brothers' blood hasn't even dried, and you already want me to surrender command of the army?"

"I came back so our brothers guarding the frontier would no longer shed blood and tears, not to be your dog!"

On that day, the Anxi Army rebelled.
