Tiger poison does not eat its seeds!
Cao Jianda only had one son. How could he bear to cut off his son's arm as a last resort
This was simply more painful than being slashed on him.
But this knife still had to be cut, otherwise his son's life would be at risk.
The fifth prince looked at Cao Qinggong who fell to the ground with a broken arm. The fire in his heart finally vented most of it. He couldn't bear to say: "As long as my arm can be restored, I will spare his life!"
"Thank you, Fifth Prince, for your forgiveness." Cao Jianda said overjoyed.
Immediately afterwards, he immediately asked someone to hold his son and left quickly, bandaging his son's injuries first.
The fifth prince then looked at Fen Tianxiong and asked, "Marshal Fen, can I take my hand back?"
Fen Tianxiong responded solemnly: "I will do my best to take back the arm of His Highness the Fifth Prince."
"I don't want to hear this nonsense. Is there any way you can get the Bone-Restraining Pill now?" the fifth prince asked.
"The Bone-Separating Pill is a Wang Pill. There are only one or two masters in this dynasty who can refine it. It's too late to rush back to the palace now. The blood in the arm will dry up and it will be difficult to get it back 100%..." Fen Tianxiong added, Before he finished speaking, the fifth prince yelled: "I'm asking you if you have any bone-setting pills now."
"No, but..."
"But what but, your majestic Grand Marshal, can you speak more clearly?"
"Someone can refine it, but I don't know if they are willing to do it."
"What do you mean? Who else dares to disobey your Generalissimo's order?"
Naturally, Fen Tianxiong couldn't say that he had just offended someone. He could only briefly say that there was a mysterious Medicine King who appeared in the army, and he also accepted a disciple in the army. It was just that this Medicine King was so elusive that it was difficult to find him. He had to Only one of his disciples could get the King of Medicine to take action. That disciple's status was somewhat special in the military, and he, the grand marshal, couldn't force it on him.
The fifth prince didn't believe Fen Tianxiong's words at all. Who else in the army didn't listen to his generalissimo's words? He didn't want to live anymore.
"Fifth prince, that soldier is from the Death Legion. That's all. His master may not belong to our mortal world. If I force him to do something, it will be very detrimental to our army." Fen Tianxiong said cryptically. said.
"Then tell me, what are the conditions for him to ask his master to make elixirs?" the fifth prince asked again.
Fen Tianxiong hesitated for a moment and said: "If possible, please ask His Highness the Fifth Prince to come forward and talk to the soldier in person. Maybe after he knows His Highness the identity of the Fifth Prince, he can ask his master to come forward, and I will do my best to satisfy him." His request."
The fifth prince was also at his wits' end and said without thinking, "Okay, let him come to see me immediately."
"It's...it's late at night, I think it's better tomorrow." Fen Tianxiong was confused.
He just offended someone, and even his master showed up to teach him a lesson. How could he have the nerve to invite someone over
Thinking about it made him feel aggrieved. The grand marshal could not stand even a small soldier.
The fifth prince was very anxious and had to see the other party immediately. After Fen Tianxiong persuaded him many times, he was willing to compromise.
After Fen Tianxiong left the fifth prince, he immediately called Cao Jianda to his military tent. He solemnly said to Cao Jianda: "The case of Sima Natu has been revealed in this way. Give him a heroic deed of dying at the border. Jianda thinks that how?"
Cao Jianda said without hesitation: "The general is wise!"
"Well, my nephew's hand is also broken now. I believe you also want him to put the broken limb back, right?" Fen Tianxiong asked again.
"General, I know what to do. When dawn, I will go to see Yang Wu and I will definitely offer him a satisfactory condition for his master to make elixirs." If Cao Jianda didn't understand what Fen Tianxiong meant, he wouldn't have to be in the army. I've been around for so many years.
"Very good. No matter what the cost, I have to make him agree. I can't let His Highness the Fifth Prince down, not to mention that this is a matter of life and death for your son." Fen Tianxiong said.
Cao Jianda knew very well. After discussing with Fen Tianxiong the conditions he could offer, he left.
…
The fact that Yang Wu killed Sima Natu has not been publicized. Few people in the army know about it. The higher-ups have been completely banned and no one can speak out at this time.
After Yang Wu came back from outside, he slept until dawn. He was really tired. The battle with the king consumed not only his Dantian power but also his mental power.
After waking up from this sleep, all the insights left by his cheap master have been imprinted on his divine court and are difficult to erase.
Before Yang Wu had time to get up to practice, he already sensed someone waiting for him outside the camp.
He straightened up his appearance and walked out slowly, muttering in his mind: "Who came to see me early in the morning? Is it because the higher ups want to sanction me?"
Yang Wu opened the tent door cloth and found Cao Jianda waiting outside the door with two generals.
"Deputy commander, General Cao is looking for you." Guard Zhou Yong said.
"Zhou Yong, how could you let General Cao wait outside? This is a serious dereliction of duty on your part." Yang Wu pretended to be stern. He knew better than anyone why Cao Jianda was here.
The other party didn't dare to force his way in. It was probably the "sequelae" left over from what happened last night.
Cao Jianda smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I asked him not to report to you. It's not good to disturb Deputy Commander Yang's sweet dream."
"Lieutenant General Cao, you are too polite. Why did you come to see me so early?" Yang Wu seemed to have forgotten all the unpleasantness that happened with Cao Jianda and asked with a smile.
He was just an unrecognized deputy commander, not even a captain. It would be disrespectful to speak so lightly to Cao Jianda, but he had nothing to fear.
Cao Jianda did not show any dissatisfaction. He took out a piece of paper and announced: "I came here specifically to congratulate Deputy Commander Yang today. The general has agreed to your appointment as deputy commander of the Death Army and your exceptional promotion to Cavalry Capital." Lieutenant, if you make outstanding achievements in the future, you can continue to be promoted to Lieutenant General or even Lieutenant General. This is your new token and official document. Please keep it, Deputy Commander Yang."
Yang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then he asked: "Does this mean that this is an appointment letter that can be recognized by the court?"
"That's right, all military positions under Zhonglang General can be directly appointed by the Grand Marshal. As long as there is a commander's seal, it is equivalent to a court appointment letter. When you are promoted to Zhonglang General, you must submit it to the court. Only after reporting and receiving the emperor's imperial decree can you be promoted." Cao Jianda explained.
"That's it." Yang Wu suddenly said, and after a pause he said, "General Cao, I cannot accept this letter of appointment."
"Why?"
"I am a soldier of the Death Legion and I have no merit. How can I be promoted to a Cavalry Captain?"
"Deputy Commander Yang, you are being humble. The fact that your commander can entrust you with such an important position as deputy commander proves your ability. The general and I both agree. Please accept this letter of appointment. Only in this way can you lead the Death Army to make great achievements in a clear and justifiable manner." Cao Jianda said sincerely.
"General Cao said so, can the appointment letters for the other commanders of our Death Army be issued together, so that they can legitimately contribute to the army and serve the imperial court!" Yang Wu said along the pole.
They were talking outside Yang Wu's camp. Many soldiers from the nearby Death Legion noticed the movement here, and all of them had extremely strange looks on their faces.
They worshiped Yang Wu so much in their hearts.
I actually refused to accept the letter of appointment sent by a dignified lieutenant general, and the lieutenant general was still friendly. Is this world crazy
Also, Yang Wu is actually asking for appointment letters for other commanders. This is crazy.
Once the appointment letter is issued, it will prove that the leader of the Death Legion is as worthy of the name as the commander of other legions and can enjoy all the same benefits and treatment in the military. This is a living hope of becoming a full-time official.
The people in the Death Legion are basically abandoned people. Unless they have achieved enough military merits and then apply for retirement, they can only die in the army and have not received the benefits they deserve. This is very unfair. Once Yang Wu's request can be fulfilled, which proves that there is still hope for their death army. As long as they can become leaders, they can also be honorable warriors.
Cao Jianda did not expect that Yang Wu would actually make such a request. Death Rose had also made this request to them before, but they never passed it. Today, he did not hesitate at all. He patted his chest on the spot and said: "I will report this to the general when I go back. I believe it." He will agree to your proposal."
"That's good. I'll wait until the other commanders' appointment letters come out, and then I'll take mine." Yang Wu accepted it as soon as he could, and didn't make any more excessive demands.
"How can this be done? Just put your appointment letter away first." Cao Jianda said anxiously.
"General Cao, you don't need to persuade me anymore. My brothers and I will advance and retreat together!" Yang Wu responded sonorously.
Now the soldiers of the Death Legion were moved to tears.
Yang Wu secured a lot of military supplies for them so that they could have a good winter, and now he also secured formal treatment for their commander. He was simply a benefactor to them.
They are all thugs, gangsters, and even psychopaths, and they are forgotten people, but their deputy captain still thinks of them and strives for good interests for them at every turn. Such a deputy captain deserves their respect and following.
Seeing Yang Wu's firm words, Cao Jianda could only endure it no matter how bad his face was. Who asked him to ask someone for help
"Okay, you wait, I will go back and ask the general for the appointment letter." Cao Jianda made a decision immediately, paused and then said: "What happened last night..."
Yang Wu smiled and said, "What happened last night?"
"It's okay, what about the bone-setting pill?"
"We'll discuss this later when the appointment letter comes. By the way, I'll give you the list first. It won't be good if you make the wrong appointment later."
Yang Wu called Lu Zhi over and wrote a list of more than a dozen people. In addition to the original eight commanders, he also won two positions for Shouhou and Lu Zhi. Shouhou was named deputy commander and Lu Zhi was named assistant officer.
Although Shou Hou worshiped Zuo Yidao as his disciple, Yang Wu still had to find a legitimate position for him so that he could establish a career in the army.
As for Lu Zhi, his performance was very good, and Yang Wu couldn't treat him badly.
When Lu Zhi saw Yang Wu about to write his name on it, tears filled his eyes and he said: "My lord, from now on, my humble body, Lu Zhi, belongs to you."
