Chapter Seventy-Six: Take a Step Back
"Yesterday night, we were ordered to add food to the beast army of the left battalion of the Iron Beast Army, but found that the entire camp was empty, we were terrified, so we immediately decided to go to the camp with other brothers to search, we went out of the camp at night, searched for a night, when the sky was slightly bright, there was still no trace, just when we were about to return to the camp to report the matter, but unexpectedly heard the sound of the beast's throat.
I waited and searched according to the cry, and then I was in a town in Yue Yunguo, and looked, I saw, and when I said this, the soldier began to stutter, and his expression was terrified, as if he had seen a ghost at that time.
A veteran who has been in the army for several years, has been on the battlefield, experienced the battle of life and death, licked blood from the knife, has hovered on the edge of life and death countless times, brushed shoulders with death, and has already cultivated a strong heart of faith that is not strange, but at that moment, he seemed to have become a coward like a mouse, and his legs were weak and even unsteady on his feet by the scene in front of him.
"What the hell is going on, say it quickly," Teng Hong couldn't wait to know the truth of the matter.
"I saw that all the people of that town were dead," and when he had finished speaking, the man breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been relieved, as if he had felt better after he had said it.
"What does this have to do with the Iron Beast Army?" Teng Hong hurriedly asked, he didn't care if the people in a town were alive or dead, and if he couldn't take the opportunity to engage in martial arts, he didn't care at all.
"They, all of them, were killed by the military beasts of the left battalion", no matter adults and children, their corpses were scattered, given and eaten by military beasts, it was too bloody, too terrifying, and they had been in the army for half their lives, and they had never met or encountered that kind of tragedy. This sergeant is also a simple and capable person on weekdays, but for some reason, as soon as he speaks today, he stutters.
"What? all were eaten by the military beasts", this time it was the turn of Prince Shakya to be frightened, just now when he said that the people in the town were killed, he had already clenched his fists, and his palms began to sweat, when he heard that everyone's death was directly related to the beast army, he stood up directly from the handsome position, with an unbelievable face, an atmosphere on his face, and the anger in his heart, he couldn't suppress it.
"Slap", the loud sound of the case in his life, spread all over the handsome tent, scared Teng Hong is trembling, recent observation, he has figured out that Prince Shakya, in fact, is a kind-hearted, casual person, rarely angry on weekdays, but I don't want to be so angry at this time.
Suddenly he was happy in his heart, knowing that Prince Shakya was really angry, this matter, said that the big is big, and the small can be small, but looking at this situation, Prince Shakya will not give up.
"Wu Long, do you know the guilt, you don't govern the army strictly, and you set the beasts to commit murder, what else do you have to say?" Prince Shakya, with an angry face, stared at Wu Long and said, he wanted to cure Wu Long's sin immediately. This is not only to give the dead creatures an explanation, but more importantly, to seize the handle of Wulong and give themselves more rights in this battle of the Southern Expedition.
The people of a town, more than 100,000 people, all died by the Iron Beast Army, this is already an unbearable sin, and it can be regarded as a great crime, but he knows better that if the battle of the Southern Expedition really starts and really starts a war with the Southern Zhan Country, in that case, the killing and sin caused will far exceed this matter, at that time, it will not be a hundred thousand people who will die, where the army passes, there will be no grass, and all living beings will have no life under the cruel and ruthless maw of the Iron Beast Army.
As the actual commander of the Iron Beast Army, the culprit of this military beast slaughter incident, Wu Long was not nervous at all, nor was he flustered, I saw him stand up from his seat unhurriedly, and the momentum on his body suddenly became extremely fierce and terrifying, he glanced back at the soldiers who came to report, his eyes were so cold that he was terrifying, and he had a posture of slapping his palm.
"Wulong, you are presumptuous", Prince Shakya shouted, hurriedly stopped, he was also very nervous in his heart, he was really afraid that Wulong would be angry and kill the person who came to report, if Wulong really did that, to be honest, he didn't have any way, here, Wulong is the most powerful one, even if he joins forces with Teng Hong, he will not be his opponent, not to mention, Teng Hong is still a wall-like existence.
Teng Hong, who commands a million-strong army on the border, seems to have self-respect, but compared to Wulong and the Iron Beast Army commanded by Wulong, it is really a small thing.
The Iron Beast Army, known as one of the three most powerful armies of the Divine Dynasty, is definitely not in vain. Wulong is the real self-respect of supporting the army.
"The Iron Beast Army, as the sword of the Divine Dynasty, what's all the fuss about this kind of thing", as soon as these words came out, it was staggering, hundreds of thousands of people in a town were all killed by the Iron Beast Army, this kind of thing is actually just a small thing, which is completely incomprehensible.
But Wu Long was not wrong, the Iron Beast Army, since its establishment, had already acquiesced in the legitimacy of similar situations. As one of the three most powerful armies of the Divine Dynasty, the sword of the Divine Dynasty, as long as there are no accidents internally, externally, it is a sharp sword, a powerful deterrent.
In the past, it was not uncommon for a similar situation to occur, but the Iron Beast Army, as a kind of army that combined warriors and demon beasts, was already destined for its particularity.
Demon beasts, irritable and murderous by nature, not to mention the earth burst bears, sea sharks, and condors, they are the most bloodthirsty and violent existences among the demon beasts, and the Holy Heaven Divine Kingdom has used special means to stimulate its beastly nature in the process of cultivating it into an army, so everything can be imagined.
The death of hundreds of thousands of humans will not have any major impact, so this is one of the reasons why Wu Long has no fear.
"Wulong's sophistry" made Prince Shakya furious, born so far, he has never killed life, and has always been compassionate, respecting life.
But today's incident has seriously stimulated his bottom line, no matter what, he has to give an explanation to the dead creatures, and even more so to give the living a comfort.
"Wulong, you don't have to quibble, Yue Yun Country is a vassal state of my Divine Dynasty, my Divine Dynasty has regulations, the killing caused by the Iron Beast Army externally can not be investigated, but you can't kill internally, you are not in good control, causing the death of hundreds of thousands of living beings in Yue Yunguo, do you still not know the crime?"
"This, I ......", Wu Long finished for a while, not knowing how to refute, he really didn't expect that Prince Shakya, who has always had a gentle personality, would suddenly make him unable to step down.
However, in the blink of an eye, Wu Long suddenly felt happy in his heart, isn't this kind of Prince Shakya exactly what the emperor and them need? This time, the Emperor of Tianqi sent him and his iron beast army, and appointed Prince Shakya as the commander of the southern expedition, what is the real purpose? He knew it very well.
"This matter is indeed unfavorable for me", Wu Long clenched his fists, which was regarded as a soft submission and admitted his mistake.
"Okay, since General Wu admits his mistake, then the marshal announced that this southern expedition is the responsibility of the marshal, and I hope you will obey the order".
"I'm afraid this won't work, the last general is acting on orders", Wu Long immediately retorted as soon as he heard that he was going to deprive himself of the right to decide.
