Chapter 180: Chen Guo is waiting
Yu Wentong, who is known as General Yum, is actually quite helpless at this time, he has wanted to see the important military information mentioned in the outside report several times, but there is a storage zài of the Marquis of Xiaoyao, but he can't open this mouth no matter what.
Marquis Xiaoyao is one of the two princes of his own Chen State, because the eldest prince has already established the status of the crown prince, so as compensation, Emperor Chen Guo gave him the title of Marquis of Xiaoyao when the second prince Chen Li was still young, and the meaning is self-evident, it is to let him be an idle marquis who does not participate in the struggle for power.
And this carefree Hou Chen Li really didn't disappoint his father, after he was a little older, he was good at fighting birds and dogs, singing and dancing, but he was unwilling to learn the way of the civil and military emperors. Today, it is still under the persecution of his own father that he reluctantly came to this Longyun Village to reward the three armies.
Therefore, although the Marquis of Xiaoyao is an unobtrusive marquis, the emperor he represents at the moment, Yuwentong can't go around at this time even if he has a big emergency. But fortunately, Ling Xiao broke in, and immediately attracted the attention of the entire banquet to himself.
In this case, Ling Xiao was inconvenient to say more, and the guards at the camp gate behind him didn't dare to say more, just looked with a pale face as how the Marquis of Xiaoyao, who was sitting high at the top, would deal with this matter.
This Xiaoyao Hou, who was quietly singing and dancing, was disturbed by Yaxing, and his heart was naturally not very comfortable, and he didn't care about the urgent military affairs that Ling Xiao said at all, but he wanted to take Ling Xiao down with an order.
Compared to Xiaoyaohou, Yuwentong knows the weight of Ling Xiao in front of him, to be honest, although he is the supreme commander of the coalition army at the moment, he still has to take care of it in private, and this Ling Xiao is only tossed so much because he doesn't know the reason why Xiaoyao Hou is here. In fact, if it had been a normal time, I would have gone to the briefing a long time ago.
Except for Ling Xiao, everyone thinks that this Xiaoyao Marquis is a royal habit, and they want to use Ling Xiao to show the majesty of the royal family.
But for the person in question, Ling Xiao, this was not the case, because he obviously felt a murderous aura, completely murderous towards himself. And the source of the murderous aura is the carefree Hou Chen Li, who is full of red face, smacking of wine, and looks drunk.
There must be something hidden in this, but now is not a good time to investigate, and Ling Xiao is not willing to confront the idle marquis and the commander of the coalition forces in front of him, so he has to snort and turn away.
If you want to say that the original camp gate guards had responsibilities and dared to step forward to stop them, at this time, Ling Xiao left but no one dared to step forward to make a move, it was very simple, Ling Xiao's identity on the face was scary enough. What is the Dingguo Duke of the Li Empire, the master of Li Jin, the eldest son of the prince of the Li Empire, the honorary elder of the Dan Sect, the inner disciple of the Sword Sect and the son-in-law of the sect master, not to mention that Ling Xiao at this time is still the liaison for the interests of the coalition forces.
Not to mention anything else, if Chen Guo dares to make a move and take Ling Xiao, then what will the other countries of the coalition think and swallow the war dividends alone. Conspiracy to sabotage coalition forces is a ready-made crime.
Ling Xiao left, but he couldn't get rid of the doubts in his heart, and it was said that he had no grudges with that Xiaoyao Hou at all. And no matter how much the prince of a country doesn't care about politics, it's not always like this, and there must be something else under the cover of his drunkenness.
Longyun Village is full of clouds, and the arrival of Xiaoyao Hou at this moment is under the banner of rewarding the three armies. But I always feel that there is a problem.
If there is a problem, it must be explored clearly, it has always been Ling Xiao's guide to action, and it will not be delayed. After returning to his residence, he just changed into his night clothes and turned around, Ling Xiao sneaked towards Chen Guo's residence again, but this time the target was Xiaoyaohou!
In the chaos of the wine, the banquet has been over, and the Maiko has already retreated, and the Marquis of Xiaoyao went to the side hall with the support of the maid, and the two decanting soups went down, and his expression was already sober. Slowly picking his teeth with a toothpick, Xiaoyao Hou said to Yu Wentong, who was sitting at the bottom, "Old general, I don't know what you think of the current situation?"
Yu Wentong, as a Yum general, naturally has his own opinions, "Master Hou, although on the surface, the Dreadnought Empire is powerful, in fact, everyone knows that the Dreadnought Empire will fight against the world with its own strength, and it will not last long anyway. Regardless of the victory or defeat of the war, there is no way to solve the problem of domestic pressure alone. It is already extremely rare that they can support a full-scale war. As long as it drags on, this battle can be won without fighting!"
In the end, it was an old and spicy general, when everyone was shocked by the extremely powerful military strength of the Dreadnought Empire, but he keenly discovered the key points of the Dreadnought Empire from another side.
It's a pity that Xiaoyao Hou didn't think so, "General Yuwen, I didn't expect that after so many years, your thoughts are still so stubborn, how can you say that I, Chen Guo, can rest assured that I will hand over the army to you?"
Hearing this, Yuwentong realized that something was wrong no matter how dull he was, although his face still maintained a calmness, his heart sank suddenly, "Outside, the fate of the group is not affected, and besides, Yuwentong's old bones now represent the coalition army, although Chen Guo is the old country, but he can't control my head." ”
Although the words were tough, the confidence was still insufficient, there was no way, to participate in the banquet, it was in Longyun Village again, not to mention the guards, and he didn't even bring a weapon that was in his hands. It became the best choice to bargain for a little bit of money and delay the time by the way.
Hearing this, Xiaoyao Hou shook his head and laughed at the same time, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, you are so keen, I just said one more sentence, you can actually understand Ben Hou's position, yes, I'm not afraid to sue you, the Dreadnought Empire is about to complete the battle, sweep away Longyun Village, and attack the mainland of the Five Kingdoms." ”
Yuwentong's heart sank again, but his mouth was not forgiving at all, "Wishful thinking, not to mention that the coalition army is full of talents, my Yuwentong's name as General Yum has not been blown out for more than ten years, and if the Fearless Empire does not come, if it really comes, it will definitely make them come and go." ”
"General Yum! Joke, Yuwentong, have you never thought about it yourself? The Fearless Empire's military strength is at its peak, the flag is pointing everywhere, and there is no opponent, how can you win a hundred battles, tell you the truth, your name of General Yum was given to you by others, for today!"
In just two sentences, it was like lightning hitting Yuwentong's soft underbelly, and indeed he also considered why he was facing third-rate troops in the Dreadnought Empire, why he was often able to win by chance, why he could always escape in desperate situations, and why he always had an illusory feeling, it turned out that this qiē was all fake.
The Dreadnought Empire is scheming, and its plans must be big. So could it be that what Xiaoyao Hou said is true, the soulless Yu Wentong was confused by Xiaoyao Hou's words, and his six spirits were uncertain.
In fact, Xiaoyao Hou is only constantly hitting the old general Yuwentong's mind according to the routine explained by the Dreadnought Empire, and at this time, seeing that this old guy is finally on the set, he doesn't dare to delay more time, "But then again, as long as the old general cooperates, this battle Dreadnought Empire will continue to let go of a way out for you, and when the time comes, you can be in a situation where you can't." Retain your strength and escape with a large number of troops, you are still a Yum General!"
In fact, Yuwentong also knew that he was not handsome, and he had won big and small battles in a daze, but his heart was always uneasy. Since the Dreadnought Empire is so sure, how can it need its own cooperation, and how can it go to great lengths to convince an idle marquis to convince itself, it can only show one problem, that is, the Dreadnought Empire is also not sure!
So to speak. As long as they can get out of danger and control this free marquis, the coalition forces can still make a difference!
As the saying goes, old and strong, although Yuwentong is over fifty years old. But from the bottom of my heart, I look down on the so-called emperor nobleman like Chen Li, who is a straw bag. If you think about it in your heart, you will naturally restore your mind. In the midst of his flying demeanor, Yu Wentong suddenly stood up, and no matter what Xiaoyao Hou did, he just rushed towards the door of the hall!
Stunned to see the old general's actions, Xiaoyao Hou was not in a hurry at all, since he dared to do this, of course he was prepared to take a strain, this old man could not see through this, but innocent and cute! Not to mention anything else, the thirty-six good men in ambush alone were enough to capture the old man again.
Therefore, Xiaoyaohou was not in a hurry at all, and sat firmly on the chair, sipping tea, waiting for the old man to surrender at his feet again, while still thinking about how to take revenge on his brother and father. As soon as he was born, he was positioned as an idle marquis, why, no matter how strategic and witty, what point is he not as good as that Chen Yun!
A few screams rang out in the courtyard as expected, and Xiaoyao Hou couldn't help but admire, this old guy hasn't been in the army for so many years, and he still has some hard work under his hands.
But what made him strange was that after such a long time, the old man still hadn't been arrested, could there be any change, shouldn't it, this station is dedicated to Chen Guo in Longyun Village, and it has been arranged up and down, no matter how you think about it, there shouldn't be a problem.
After all, the apprehensive Xiaoyaohou couldn't stand this depression, got up and walked out of the door, but before he could get to the door, a louder noise appeared, and the courtyard door was suddenly slammed open, and a group of iron-blooded soldiers rushed in!
Looking at the messy scene in the courtyard, Ling Xiao, who was lying on the roof, turned around and left with confidence, thinking that today was really not in vain, and he watched a big scene, there were monarchs and ministers who were suspicious, there were ten years of deployment, there were fathers and sons and brothers who were in civil strife, and there was even the gossip of General Yum.
That's right, the reason why Yuwentong was able to go out and call for reinforcements so lightly was precisely because Ling Xiao had a black hand, in fact, when the Marquis was chattering, Ling Xiao had already started to do it, and the thirty-six secret sentinels were all secretly touched by him without exception. Since General Yum has such a prestige, it is better to let this Yum reputation continue, and to be honest, Ling Xiao still admires this lovely old man, in the face of coercion and temptation, very few people can do the old man's part.
Although he doesn't have much talent, this alone can reassure people, at least he is sincerely fighting against the Dreadnought Empire, and there is no selfishness or interest in his heart, and there is only hatred for the Dreadnought Empire!
In the midst of Yuwentong's incomprehension, in the confusion of the Marquis of Xiaoyao Chen Li, Ling Xiao Shi Shi disappeared into the night, returned to his residence happily, marked the news he heard today on the map again, and began to think about the true intentions of the Dreadnought Empire!
