Chapter 219: The Four Princes Who Will Be Retribution

This time, the second-level beast tide attacked Beichen County, and the war lasted for a day and a night.

As soon as the tide of beasts had completely receded, the craftsmen of the Northern Legion began to repair the walls. The auxiliaries immediately began to collect the corpses of the demon beasts and collected the corpses of those demon beasts.

As for the pharmacists and medicine disciples under Shang Qian, they began to treat a staggering number of wounded.

The North's Legion has been through so much of it is numbing. Therefore, even if Zhao Hongju did not give an order, after the battle, the whole army immediately began to have a clear division of labor, and dealt with many post-war matters in an orderly manner.

When Ling Hao returned to the city with the panda also covered in blood, he was treated like a hero.

But all the sergeants who could stand, the moment Ling Hao entered the city, they all tapped their chests and let out a loud roar, cheering for him in a way unique to the Northern Legion.

Ling Hao has been fighting since he fell out of the city yesterday evening, and after more than 20 hours of high-intensity fighting, Rao is physical strength and Yuan power are far more abundant than other cultivators, and he is still extremely tired at this moment.

He is not a member of the Northern Legion, so no matter how great his merits are, he can't enter the Northern Legion to rest, which is military rule.

Zhao Hongju arranged for him to rest in the most high-end and luxurious restaurant in Beichen County, and chartered a whole floor of rooms to vacate them, just to let him be quiet and not be disturbed.

Ling Hao accepted Zhao Hongju's kindness, took a bath with the panda happily, and after eating a hearty meal, he rested for three full days.

Three days later, Shang Qian personally came to the restaurant and invited Ling Hao to the camp of the Northern Legion.

Seeing that the sergeants in the Northern Legion camp were already training in an orderly manner, Ling Hao nodded silently.

In the end, it is the most capable army of the Great Chu Dynasty, and its ability to deal with the war and its ability to recover after the war are all remarkable.

was taken all the way by Shang Qian to the tent, and according to the usual transmission and Zhao Hongju's permission, the two entered the tent.

Zhao Hongju was not overly enthusiastic about Ling Hao because of his previous amazing performance, and the majesty of the commander of the first army must be maintained.

But when he looked at Ling Hao, there was already obvious appreciation and kindness in his eyes, which showed that the most famous general of the Great Chu Dynasty had truly recognized Ling Hao now.

With a simple wave of his hand, a thin black young man who was also wearing battle armor stepped forward and placed a box in front of Ling Hao.

Ling Hao stretched out his hand to open the box, and saw that there was a still fresh head inside, knowing that this was the elite camp cultivator who had punched him out of the city before.

"Committed suicide by taking poison?" Ling Hao looked away and asked.

Zhao Hongju nodded and said, "This person's name is Yu Hongfeng, and he is from the Yu family. After he sneaks up and knocks you out of the city, he immediately uses the runes that sealed the teleportation array and escaped. ”

When Ling Hao heard this, his eyes flashed.

Yu Hongfeng?The people of the Yu family?

"When the law enforcement team chased him, he had already joined the people of the Yu family. After the law enforcement team explained the reason for pursuing him, it didn't take long for the Yu family to deliver the man's body to the law enforcement team. ”

The law enforcement team took him back to the camp and verified his identity. But because it was you who attacked him earlier, it is necessary for you to take a look. ”

Zhao Hongju paused and asked, "Ling Hao, do you know why he attacked you?"

"I had a conflict with a man named Yu Hongchen from the Great Chu Military Academy in the Ghost Scorpion Desert before. ”

While saying this, Ling Hao himself was puzzled.

Is this Yu Hongfeng just because Yu Hongchen didn't deal with me, so he attacked me in front of everyone? And then committed suicide in fear of crime and threw away his life?

"There may be reasons for that, but according to our investigation, it is not that simple. ”

Zhao Hongju said, stretched out his hand and handed a secret letter to Ling Hao, and said, "Yu Hongfeng was born in the Yu family, and before he came to the Northern Territory Legion to join the army, he had always been a member of the Nanhe Palace. ”

"The king of Nanhe is the fourth prince of the dynasty. ”

Ling Hao frowned: "The person who instructed him to kill me after seeing me was the Fourth Prince?"

"That's probably the case. Zhao Hongju said, "Chu Xuanying said in his letter to me that because of the Jingshi San you invented, the four princes finally lost their power and industry in Dongqi County, and they were even charged with murdering the county guard of Dongqi County, and they finally got out. ”

"According to the report of the spies of my Northern Legion in the Xichuan Palace, after the four princes were cleared of the charges, they put you on the must-kill list and immediately sent someone to assassinate you in Dongqi County. But by the time their men arrived in Dongchen County, you had already arrived in the Scorpion Desert. ”

"After the people of the Four Princes chased you to the Ghost Scorpion Desert, you have already left. Zhao Hongju said, "So, they want to torture your whereabouts from those cultivators who have come into contact with you. ”

Ling Hao's eyes were slightly chilled.

If what Zhao Hongju said is true, then it seems that these four princes are really determined to kill me because of my invention of the Pure Stone Scatter Pit for him!

I don't know how the people of the Lu family are doing now.

"After leaving the Scorpion Desert, you disappeared again, so the Fourth Prince sent orders to his subordinates in various parts of the dynasty to kill you by all means if they saw you and found you. ”

"This has been confirmed by me everywhere through the intelligence network of the Northern Legion. Zhao Hongju said, "Even, on the black market of the Great Chu Dynasty now, there have been rewards for you. Your skull, now at a pretty staggering price. ”

After pondering for a while, Ling Hao got up and Zhao Hongju arched his hand: "Thank you for telling us." ”

"No need for thanks. Zhao Hongju waved his hand, "In the previous battle, you made a huge contribution, and I did this just to give you an explanation." ”

"Your exploits in this battle, I have written in the military newspaper and handed it over to the imperial court. Zhao Hongju said, "But I think it's better for you to leave Dachu as soon as possible." ”

"The four princes have always been eager to repay him, and if he moves to kill people, he will kill at all costs. Moreover, he is now the favourite to become the next king, and his power and ambitions have now swelled to an astonishing degree. ”

"His men already know that you are in the Northern Frontier County, and the reason why they didn't do anything to you is only because of my Northern Legion. ”

"But if the fourth prince succeeds in succeeding to the throne and becoming the new emperor of Great Chu, even the Northern Legion will not be able to protect you. ”

Zhao Hongju looked at Ling Hao and said slowly: "The holy decree to announce that you enter the capital to accept the reward is already halfway there, and Lao Shang will take you to receive the Yuan Jing later." If you don't leave, when the decree arrives, I will have to forcibly send you to the capital. ”
