The Liangjie Mountain Military Merit Book has been officially updated, and the 95th place is clearly written with the three big words "Pearl River Army".
The generals from other countries hurried to the city wall and saw the three big words "Pearl River Army" with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.
The good news is that after the Qin State's Imperial Guards were removed from the list, the Wenjie Army was completely wiped out in the military merit book. Now the Chu State's Pearl River Army has won a victory for the Wenjie people, but this honor belongs only to Chu State and the Pearl River Army, not to their own country.
The generals of Qin State, in particular, could not help but sigh. They were not jealous of Fang Yun, but just felt a little unwilling.
The Great Qin, the most powerful country in the literary world, was unexpectedly suppressed by the Pearl River Army of the Chu State. Moreover, the Pearl River Army was not one of the four major armies of the Chu State, but only one of the border armies. This made it even more difficult for the Qin generals to accept.
However, the university scholars of various countries did not lose their scholarly demeanor and went to the Pearl River Army in person to congratulate Fang Yun.
Just like last night, only Gou Bao and Prince Jing did not go to congratulate.
Zhang Qingfeng was very happy and said, "If Brother Wankong saw this, he would definitely be very happy."
Wang Li said excitedly: "Let's make a concerted effort. After a few days of fighting, we will show the flag of our Pearl River Army at Liangjie Mountain!"
The generals nearby rolled their eyes.
Su Lun smiled bitterly and said, "General Wang, I think we should just forget it. It is normal to raise an ordinary military flag on Liangjie Mountain, but if we show the inheritance flag on the top of the city, it is tantamount to provoking all the human army."
Wang Li said calmly: "Not necessarily. Once our Pearl River Army ranks first in the military merit book, we can show our flag!"
The generals around him began to roll their eyes at Wang Li again. This Hanlin was really brave enough to speak his mind.
Gou Bao, who was not far away, suddenly spoke in a disgusted tone: "When will you, the Pearl River Army, shut up and reflect on yourselves? You keep talking about things that are completely untrue, such as Zhang Wankong once raised the Pearl River Army flag on the top of Liangjie Mountain City, and vying for the first place in the military merit book. You are simply too arrogant! Let the armies of Liangjie Mountain judge for themselves. How can the human race have such a rampant scholar?"
A curious Hanlin from Liangjie Mountain asked, "Oh? Is what Marquis Qishan said true? How dare you, the Zhujiang Army, say that you once raised your flag on the top of our Liangjie Mountain city? At least so far, except for the Kong family's Dingyao Army, even the main force of Liangjie Mountain doesn't dare to say such a big thing! Do you, the people of the literary world, look down on the heroes of the world so much?"
An old university scholar said, "Forget it, maybe it's just a joke. I don't believe that the Pearl River Army is so arrogant as to want to put the big flag on the top of the city and suppress the army with military luck."
Gou Bao provoked, "If you don't believe it, you can ask Generals Zhang Qingfeng and Wang Li of the Pearl River Army. They said it themselves when they were in the literary world. And Zhang Longxiang's son Zhang Jing'an was nicknamed 'the traitor Zhang Jing'an' by other children in the capital. He boasted since he was a child that the previous generation of marshals of the Pearl River Army once planted the flag of the Pearl River Army on the top of Liangjie Mountain City. Wang Li, don't you dare to admit it, old man?"
Wang Li's face flushed.
Gou Bao smiled and said, "You all saw it. Even Wang Li, who has the most bad temper, had nothing to refute. This confirms what I just said. The boasting of the Pearl River Army is the best in the world!"
Zhang Qingfeng's face darkened, realizing that the momentum was not right. If he allowed Gou Bao to continue, not only would they be isolated by other armies, but the morale of the Pearl River Army would also be hit.
Zhang Qingfeng laughed and said, "May I ask you, Grand Secretary Gou, do you want to compete for the first place in the military merit book? May I ask everyone present, who doesn't want to compete for the first place in the military merit book? Does competing for the first place just mean being arrogant? Competing for the first place means that our Zhujiang Army will do our best to kill monsters and exterminate barbarians! In this day and age, even trying to kill monsters and exterminate barbarians is not allowed?"
Gou Bao sneered, "Master Zhang, please don't change the subject. I just want to ask you one question. Did Zhang Longxiang's father, Zhang Wankong, ever say that he had set up the flag of the Pearl River Army on the top of Liangjie Mountain? I just want to ask you one question. Did Zhang Wankong say that? Did Zhang Jing'an say that? You, the 210,000 people in the Pearl River Army, don't even dare to tell the truth?"
The Zhujiang Army was in complete silence. The soldiers looked at each other. They all knew that no matter how stupid they were, they could not admit this at this time.
Fang Yun had been sitting on Pingbu Qingyun, closing his eyes to rest, not saying a word, but Zhang Jingan's bright big eyes appeared in his mind. He remembered what Zhang Jingan said about Zhang Wankong's deeds in Liangjie Mountain when they parted, and remembered the encouragement Zhang Jingan gave before he left.
"Father, please make sure to do as Grandpa did and raise the banner of the Pearl River Army on the top of Liangjie Mountain City, so that all of Jingzhou will know that I, Zhang Jing'an, did not lie!"
A scholar from Liangjie Mountain sneered and said, "Since you don't refute it, you have acquiesced to it! I will publish this matter on the discussion board and make your Zhujiang Army famous throughout the world!"
A university scholar coughed lightly and said, "Brother Lian, I think we should just let this go. Perhaps it is just a childish joke. Peace is the most precious thing in the world."
Fang Yun opened his eyes and looked at the university scholar. Next to the university scholar stood another familiar person.
The two people were none other than Ci Jun and Shi Jun, two of the four great talents in the past. Later, Shi Jun lost the competition for literary fame with Fang Yun, and felt that he was wrong, so he exiled himself to Liangjie Mountain, trying to cleanse himself by killing monsters and barbarians. As his good friend, Ci Jun also accompanied him, and left behind a beautiful story, which was known as "Poetry is inseparable from Ci".
The poet looked as if it had nothing to do with him, but the ci poet, who was always magnanimous, spoke up to help Fang Yun.
Fang Yun smiled indifferently. When he was in Kongcheng, even though Ci Jun and Shi Jun were close friends, he praised his poems without any hesitation, which showed how broad-minded this person was.
As soon as Ci Jun opened his mouth, the university scholars from all walks of life stopped talking. They still had to give face to Ci Jun. What's more, the vitality of the two of them was vibrating and it was slightly difficult to control. This was a sign that they were about to be promoted to great scholars. Not giving face to Ci Jun would be tantamount to offending the two future great scholars.
However, Gou Bao was not willing to give in and said loudly, "Zhang Longxiang, I want to ask you, did Zhang Jing'an tell me that Zhang Wankong had climbed Liangjie Mountain? If you are truly a man, answer me!"
The ci poet looked at Gou Bao indifferently, while the poet showed an unhappy expression.
Fang Yun looked at the Monster City and the thousands of monster tents in front of him and said, "This is not the literary world, and I will not engage in childish verbal disputes. However, I will answer you that I have indeed never heard of the Liangjie Mountain from my father. As for how my Pearl River Army ended up, it is not your turn to comment. It's nothing more than seeing that the Pearl River Army is on the list of military merits, and you are about to lose everything, so you are angry. You chattered non-stop last night, and I was too lazy to pay attention to you, but I never thought that you would go so far today, which is disgusting."
Everyone looked at Gou Bao, and Fang Yun's words hit the nail on the head.
Gou Bao remained calm, laughed heartily, and said, "Are you upset? No, in the Two Realms Mountains, merits will be rewarded and faults will be punished. Your merits now may be faults in the future! The truce in the demon world may not be because they are afraid of your crappy poem, but they are probably using your trick to gather their strength. After the truce, they will launch a very fierce offensive. Once the Two Realms Mountains are in danger, your so-called military merits will all turn into faults! In addition, the next time the demons attack, it will be the first battle of my literary army. If the Pearl River Army is completely wiped out, I want to see how you can shamelessly say that you have made merits!"
