Shen Tang’s curiosity is about to kill the cat.
"Whose strength did you borrow and who did you hit?"
Chu Yao was in a good mood and talked and laughed as usual.
"Of course, we should use Zheng Qiao's strength to fight Wei Yuanyuan. Since he is unwilling to send troops, we can only find ways to replace the generals on the battlefield!"
"Changing the generals at the last minute?"
Chu Yao looked towards Liguan and sneered, as if he was sighing and mocking: "Qu Tu Xi Xin has no grace, but Jiao Tou is a distinguished guest. People like Wei Yuanyuan are most likely to be criticized as incompetent. He refused to come out because he saw the hidden danger, but in the eyes of outsiders, it does not require any talent to refuse to come out, just a thick skin and ignore the enemy's scolding. How can a general who can only hide in the dark be better than a general who can turn the tide?"
But Chen Tang felt that there was more reason than that.
"Wu Hui must have done something else. If he disliked Wei Shou's incompetence, he wouldn't have sent him here in the first place. Since he was sent to guard Chaoli Pass, he must have been mentally prepared. I think Zheng Qiao's patience will not last just a few days..."
Chu Yao asked back: "What if Wei Yuanyuan turns against us?"
Chen Tang almost cried out in shock: "When did he betray us?"
Wuhui is so powerful that he not only kidnapped someone's wife but also turned him against his will!
Chu Yao said with a smile, "It's just 'if', not true. Zheng Qiao is a very cautious person. The Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces clearly want to fight a decisive battle, how can he not take it seriously? The more seriously he takes it, the less he can take the slightest risk. I just asked Xin Ji to forge Wei Yuanyuan's letter of treason, and this letter happened to be intercepted by the military supervisor who was at odds with Wei Yuanyuan and sent to Zheng Qiao."
Chen Tang: "A letter of treason? Did you forge it?"
Chu Yao shook his head honestly, with a hint of disdain in his words: "Of course not. Wei Yuanyuan's handwriting is so poor that if you are not with him day and night, how can you imitate 90% of his essence? I haven't seen him for more than 20 years."
The implication is that even if Chu Yao had the ability to forge it, he would not be able to get Wei Yuanyuan's handwritten manuscript in a short period of time.
Chen Tang discovered a loophole: "If you forge a letter of treason, you must use the Wudan Tiger Talisman as the signature seal..."
This thing is a personal item close to your body.
Normal tiger seals are just accessories and do not have the function of stamping, but the Wudan tiger seal is different. Strictly speaking, it should be the "Wudan Bing seal"! When separated, it is two different-shaped seals, one in two halves. One side is engraved in relief, and the other side is engraved in relief.
The two are combined into one, fitting perfectly together, forming a complete military talisman.
The seals stamped with the Bunshin Monogatari/Budan Tiger Talisman all carry the unique aura of the owner, which cannot be forged.
Chu Yao's expression flashed a strange look: "He used to use the Wudan Tiger Talisman to tease the child. The child was ignorant and used it to randomly stamp. These were carefully collected by Xin Ji."
Xinji often reminds her husband not to play like this.
But, how could Wei Shou listen
The kids are just playing, what’s the big deal
He/she is just a child, what does he/she know
Axin’s child can play whatever he wants.
In summary-
Chen Tang nodded thoughtfully: "I understand. This story tells me not to sign on a blank piece of paper..."
Look, isn’t Wei Shou being cheated
Or you're just shooting yourself in the foot!
"Wuhui, ginger is still spicy with age!"
Chu Yao didn't want to admit that he was an old hand. Although he had planned the plan, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly without the convenience provided by Xin Ji. He said modestly: "If Wei Yuanyuan and Xin Ji hadn't had a good relationship, he would have almost no weaknesses."
Chen Tang had a look of having learned a lesson.
He also said: "Love-mindedness is a roadblock to career success!"
Chu Yao looked at his lord with gentle eyes, feeling very pleased.
"Is Wei Yuanyuan going to die?"
"No, Zheng Qiao doesn't want to alert the enemy."
If we start to punish Wei Shou and make him pay, won't he run away since he has arms and legs and soldiers? If we really force Wei Shou into a corner, he will join the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces after leaving Chaoli Pass and turn against us. It would be better to find a reason to replace Wei Shou, send someone to keep a close eye on him, or even use Wei Shou's trick to send wrong information to the coalition forces.
Therefore, Wei Shou is safe.
If not for this, Xin Ji would not have agreed.
Chu Yao was in a good mood, but his old friend who was framed by him was in a bad mood. His wife Xin Ji was taken away by Chu Yao. Even though he knew that Chu Yao would take good care of Xin Ji, he still couldn't help but worry and be jealous. To make matters worse, the stupid military supervisor sent by Zheng Qiao caused trouble again. I don't know how he told Zheng Qiao about the night attack, but Zheng Qiao actually agreed to change the generals at the last minute.
When Wei Shou received the news, his face turned pale.
He strode over to question the mentally retarded military supervisor.
"What does this mean?"
The military supervisor was a man with a gentle appearance, a high-pitched voice, and a charming demeanor in his actions and words. However, he was not an eunuch, but a serious scholar. Facing the aggressive Wei Shou, he was a little panicked, but soon calmed down and said: "The king is not satisfied with the general's insistence on staying here, so he should deal with these traitors outside with a heavy blow!"
Wei Shou narrowed his eyes and said, "Why would we go out when there are natural dangers?"
Military Supervisor: "Why do we need a general if we are just going to defend it?"
Wei Shou even wanted to strangle the military supervisor to death.
He gnashed his teeth and said, "It must be you, a treacherous minister, who made up some nonsense again. If Chaoli Pass cannot be defended, you will be the sinner!"
The military supervisor was not intimidated by his words and said sarcastically: "General, you'd better say this to yourself."
Naturally, the two parted on bad terms again.
On the second day, the new garrison commander arrived at Chaoli Pass.
This man walked like a dragon and a tiger, with a long breath, a fierce face, and a very majestic look. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and when he swept across Wei Shou, there seemed to be a flash of wind and thunder. Wei Shou also glared back, not wanting to be outdone, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Wei Shou didn't like dealing with Zheng Qiao's troops, and he rejected all the random invitations. His eccentric behavior offended many people. In addition, the Wudan warriors formed their own troops and had a competitive relationship, which made the relationship even worse.
Wei Shou naturally recognized the person who came.
One of the two sixteenth-rank great officers under Zheng Qiao.
Jiang Ao, whose courtesy name is Qianshen.
However, his origin as a 16th-class Grand Master was not very clean, and compared with the other one, he seemed a little unworthy of the title. Jiang Ao was also aware of the outside world's doubts about him, so he urgently needed a big victory to prove himself, and this happened!
"Wei Yuanyuan, Chaoli Pass will be taken over by this general."
"Hmph, come if you want, I don't care!"
Wei Shou also understood Jiang Ao's temper.
Jiang Ao, as his name suggests, is arrogant and conceited. He really wasted the word "modest" given to him by his elders. After saying that, Wei Shou turned his face away and left. He didn't want to stay and attend Jiang Ao's banquet. Jiang Ao looked at him with a sinister look in his eyes - his mission this time, in addition to taking over Chaoli Pass, was to keep an eye on Wei Shou and bring him back to the palace to question him.
Of course, before he left, the king Zheng Qiao also reminded him: Although the evidence is irrefutable, Wei Yuanyuan's betrayal is indeed strange. He didn't betray earlier or later, but at this time, it's hard to guarantee that it's not a trick of the small fish and shrimp. When you go, remember not to alarm Wei Yuanyuan and send someone to investigate secretly.
Although the sixteenth level of the Great Creation was not perfect, and it took nearly sixty years to cultivate to this level, Jiang Ao's talent was unquestionable, and he was not a fool, so he naturally understood Zheng Qiao's emphasis on Wei Shou. He felt bad, so he said to suppress Wei Shou: Wei Yuanyuan is just a mere figure, why should the king be so cautious
Zheng Qiao said unhappily: Just do as I say.
This somewhat humiliated Jiang Ao.
Jiang Ao would naturally vent his anger on Wei Shou.
At the banquet, wine and food were poured clinking.
When everyone was drunk, the military supervisor told the story of Wei Shou's wife Xin Ji being stolen as a joke: "I heard that Xin Ji was a stunning beauty when she was young. Now she is middle-aged and still has charm. She got married to those rotten fish and shrimps outside. Who knows what a miserable end she will have."
Jiang Ao's followers burst into laughter.
Jiang Ao himself sneered with contempt. He had lived a long life, experienced many wars, and knew more old gossip. He knew the past of Xin Ji, who was beside Wei Shou, very well. He said, "He is just a waste who can't even take care of a woman."
Wei Shou's people also attended the banquet.
Naturally, these details were also told to Wei Shou.
This undoubtedly adds fuel to the fire.
There was a fierceness and murderous intent in his eyes.
But Wei Shou still had his wits about him, so he suppressed his anger and said viciously, "Jiang Ao is a fool with shit and fart in his head! Since he is so confident, let him go and die. I'm waiting to collect his body and grind his bones to dust!"
The officials were worried.
"That's the sixteenth-level great creation..."
Wei Shou smashed the table and immediately revealed most of Jiang Ao's past: "What a 16th-class top-grade person! How could I not know his background? He was blinded by money and worked hard for Beimo. If he hadn't run fast, he would have been killed by Chu Wuhui! What ability does this old bastard have? Isn't it just that he has a cheap life and lives a long life?"
"Chu Wuhui was useless back then, why didn't he just shoot the old bastard from mouth to asshole, and still let him leave to disgust people!"
The official heard another unfamiliar name.
"General, who is this Chu Wuhui? Why is he so powerful?"
Wei Shou said angrily: "He is not a human! He is a dog!"
Official: “???”
The Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition held a small meeting every day and a large meeting every three days. They spent 10% of their time discussing and perfecting the deployment, and 90% of their time worrying about how to force the ten-thousand-year-old bastard Wei Shou to come out and fight. Who knew that Chao Liguan was quietly developing and secretly preparing a big one for the coalition!
When Chen Tang received the news, she was still sealed in her beloved silk quilt on the marching bed, the quilt was full of heat, and she hadn't opened her eyes yet. When she realized what the messenger said, her almond eyes widened instantly, and she jumped up!
"What did you say?"
"One hundred thousand enemy soldiers are approaching!"
Shen Tang dressed on instinct.
The gauze dress over the tight-fitting clothes is worn while running.
"Fuck, why is it so unexpected?"
She flipped over and jumped onto the back of the motorcycle.
"Reorganize the troops. Finally, we don't have to pick our feet anymore!" There was a collective commotion in all the camps. Chen Tang wiped his face with a wet towel and ran into Chu Yao who came leisurely. The latter didn't seem surprised by this scene.
The two had the conversation at the beginning of this chapter.
The military expedition to Li Pass was too unexpected.
Fortunately, the coalition forces had been looking forward to this day for a long time. The military construction in front of the battlefield was perfect to prevent unexpected emergencies, so they were not afraid that the troops from Chaoli Pass would attack the camp all at once. The troops had plenty of time to gather, and various military auras flashed above the camps.
This does not include Shen Tang.
A set of armor can easily weigh dozens of kilograms.
Although it does not affect the actions of the warrior, its weight will continuously consume the martial energy of the user. In addition, the warhorse transformed from martial energy is also a major consumer. It is covered with dozens of kilograms of horse armor and has to bear the master on the horse's back.
The heavier it is, the greater the consumption and the faster the consumption rate.
Even a wealthy man like Chen Tang who was not short of martial energy felt a little distressed. This also made it understandable why Gong Xichou had to use only half of his martial armor to deal with the weak opponent. How could such a weak opponent be worth wasting so much precious martial energy? Moreover, Chen Tang was the lord.
Normally, Chen Tang was in the center of the army rather than in the front.
Soon, war drums were beating and flags were flying.
Although the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition army was hasty in their battle, they had already made all the arrangements, and they saw order in the chaos, and they deployed their troops before the Liguan army approached. The two armies faced each other from a distance, and Jiang Ao raised his hand to signal the army to stop and look at the opposite side.
"These rotten fish and shrimps..." Compared with the neat and orderly Chaoliguan army behind him, the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition was just a colorful platter, revealing the atmosphere of a makeshift team everywhere. Jiang Ao sneered, "I really don't know why Wei Yuanyuan is afraid of them?"
He didn't deliberately lower his voice.
Wei Shou naturally heard it clearly.
He looked at Jiang Ao as if he was a fool.
What are you afraid of
Haha, even King Zheng Qiao doesn’t have such a big tone.
If they were truly rotten fish and shrimp that could not withstand a single blow, would Zheng Qiao have tolerated them hopping around under his nose for so long? Was the Dragon Slaying Bureau not annihilated because Zheng Qiao was kind enough to keep it as a toy? It was clear that he did not have the ability to wipe them out in one go...
Jiang Ao is good...
Wei Shou's gaze couldn't help but fall on the opposite side.
Although he could only see a sea of heads, he believed that there must be a pair of eyes staring at him solemnly. Chu Yao was right across from him. I wonder if Jiang Ao, the old man, would recall the good old memories if he knew about it
hehe…
On the opposite side, the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition.
Chen Tang was holding a large pancake in her left hand and a wine bag filled with milk in her right hand, eating with gusto, her cheeks puffed up one after another. Her mouth was not idle, forming a sharp contrast with the solemn and serious army: "Why are you looking at me?"
Wu Xian smiled awkwardly and said, “Brother Shen has a good appetite.”
I don’t know if Chen Tang is just careless or something else.
You can eat anywhere.
Chen Tang saw where his eyes were and handed over a piece of uneaten cake. "We were in such a hurry to go out to fight that I haven't eaten anything yet. I guess it's the same for Brother Wu. Do you want to eat something to fill your stomach? I don't think this battle will be over in a short time."
Wu Xian: “…”
He hated himself for being so talkative.
He said with difficulty: "No, I'm not hungry."
"Man is like iron, and food is like steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will be hungry. People live to eat..." Seeing that Wu Xianzhen didn't want to eat, she took a big bite and said, "But you don't have to fight, it doesn't matter if you go hungry for a while..."
She can't do it, and there's no guarantee that she'll be needed to save the situation.
"I'm hungry too, any more?"
A young head popped up in front of her. It was Shao Chong.
Over there, Gu Ren had already covered his face.
Both of you should pay attention to the occasion and respect your opponents!
