Peerless Ruthless Man, Cut Down the World

Chapter 140: A Winter's Tale (2)

  Chapter 140 Winter's Tale (2)

  Boundary borders are snowing, and the snowflakes have dyed the mountains and plains into a silver dress. Soldiers are standing guard against the wind and snow, and snowflakes are accumulating on the cold iron armor.

  Deep in the barracks, in a tent,

  Several generals are studying the sand table, the leader is a middle-aged man, his face is full of wind and frost, the traces on the armor and the dark red blood lipid stagnation show his great military exploits.

  This person is Chengyanghou, one of the two major military lords in Yunzhou, a legendary figure famous for his outstanding military exploits.

"Lord Hou," a general pointed to a place on the sand table, and said, "The White Lotus Sect will definitely take this opportunity to replenish logistics during the heavy snow truce, and here is a very suitable granary. When the snow stops, we can first Destroy this granary."

Marquis Chengyang nodded slightly, with a serious expression, and said: "This is indeed a good idea, and we can study it from one direction. However, what I am most worried about now is when the imperial court's supplies will arrive, and whether the White Lotus Sect can delay it." Let’s start, we can’t afford it either!”

"Hmph, the imperial court," said a general dissatisfied, "We are fighting to the death on the front line. Those officials and lords in the imperial court are only caring about our lives and dreams, so they don't care about our life and death. When the supplies come to us, it is an eye-opener for us to be able to achieve something." !"

   In the tent, there was a sudden silence.

  The current actions of the imperial court really chilled the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies.

  If it wasn't for the court's delay in sending supplies, why would it be a protracted war with the White Lotus Sect here.

   Cheng Yanghou sighed, and said: "It doesn't matter if our brothers say something like this, but don't talk nonsense outside, it will be troublesome if someone who cares hears it!"

"Hmph," a young general muttered, "Some people are not good at fighting, but it's great to fight for power behind the scenes. Our Lord Hou is dedicated to serving the country and loyal, but there are always people who want to blame our Lord Hou for the loss of Longguan. ..."

   "Okay," Chengyang Hou scolded in a deep voice: "Such words are not allowed to be said in the future. Longguan fell, and I failed to rush to rescue in time. This responsibility cannot be shirked."

   "Why," said a general, "they didn't inform the Chengyang Army of their own plan, and now they're blaming us if they lose. What's the point?"

   At this time,

  Soldiers reported outside the door: "Report to Marshal, Qin Tianjian Supervisor Qin You is asking to see you."

  Hou Chengyang frowned.

  In the camp, all the generals had ugly expressions.

   "It's the Qin Tianjian again. If you don't succeed enough and fail more, you know what's wrong with you!"

   "It's really taking chicken feathers as an arrow, and it's our military that's in charge."

   "Master Hou, this Qin You has always been close to Liu Hou, and tried every means to frame you. I'm afraid the person who came here was not kind!"

   "Master Hou..."

  Marquis Chengyang waved his hand, signaling the generals to stay, and left the camp alone.

   Soon,

   Cheng Yanghou entered a small tent, and as soon as he entered, he saw a white-haired old man in a long gown sitting beside the brazier, holding a stick in his hand and fiddled with the charcoal fire.

   "Qin Jianzheng, long time no see." Chengyang Hou said.

The old man slowly raised his head, his face was clear and handsome, his jaw fluttered lightly with the night wind, and his breath was filled with an inexplicable feeling. He stood up slowly, smiled and cupped his hands and said, "It's not too bad to think about coming to the Marquis of Chengyang." Welcome sir."

   Cheng Yanghou said flatly: "Qin Jianzheng is joking, Benhou is quite willing to deal with you, but Qin Jianzheng has always misunderstood Benhou."

   "Is it a misunderstanding, let time prove it!" Qin You stood up and said, "I take the liberty of visiting, just to say my condolences to Lord Hou!"

  A murderous intent flashed in the eyes of Marquis Chengyang,

  His son Ling Jing died in Linjiang City. Although the news has not been spread yet, he already knew about it.

   "Qin Jian is just gloating?" Chengyang Hou said coldly.

  Qin You waved his hand and said: "Master Hou misunderstood, I am here to deliver some things."

   After finishing speaking, Qin You took out a few letters and handed them to Marquis Chengyang.

  Chengyang Hou took the letter and looked at it. They were all things that Ling Jing died suddenly and didn't have time to deal with.

  Chengyang Hou put away the letter, his face remained unchanged, and asked: "Your conditions."

  Qin You said: "First, the border war is suspended now, Lord Hou, I don't want the military to fight among themselves at this stage. Second, Ling Shizi sacrificed his life for the country and died in the battle."

   Chengyang Hou pondered for a while, then nodded slowly.

   "Thank you, Lord Hou."

  Qin You smiled slightly, turned around and walked out of the tent, his figure disappeared into the wind and snow.

  Watching Qin You disappear, Marquis of Chengyang snorted coldly, and said to the empty tent, "Notify the government to stop all revenge against Linjiang City."

  In the tent, there was a sudden slight fluctuation of vitality.

  An illusory figure appeared behind Chengyang Hou, cupped his hands and said, "Master Hou, the son died in Linjiang City, so let's forget it?"

  Chengyang Hou narrowed his eyes and said: "Qin You came in person, and Jinger left so many traces that have not been dealt with cleanly, let's stop this matter!"

  The illusory figure hesitated and said, "But, how do you explain to Madam?"

Marquis Chengyang thought for a while and said, "Linjiang City can't be liquidated anymore. Qin You's proud student Yang Yunzhi is in Linjiang City. With Yang Yunzhi's means, if I forcefully liquidate now, he can really make Chengyang Army go crazy. Dog jump, as for Madam, just take the head of the murderer who killed Jinger to the mansion."

"Yes, I understand," the figure bowed, and suddenly said: "By the way, Lord Hou, that lifeless thing is called Gu Zhan, and he also killed Qi Baiyu's younger brother Qi Qianyu. , Qi Baiyu personally left Weishui for revenge."

   "That Gu... Gu what?"

   "Gu Zhan."

   "Yes, that kid named Gu Zhan, where is he now?" Cheng Yanghou asked.

   "Still investigating," the figure said: "Yang Yunzhi blocked the news before, and that kid took advantage of that time to escape. Now we are under surveillance, and we have confirmed that the kid has gone to Yunxi!"

Chengyang Hou pondered for a while, and said: "Don't let that kid successfully enter Yunxi, otherwise, Yunxi will be very troublesome. If that kid has successfully entered Yunxi, let Qi Baiyu kill him, um, yes , do not use the power of the government during the whole process, so as not to leave unnecessary handles,

   In addition, go back and tell Madam, let him rest assured that those people in Linjiang City will be liquidated by the Marquis. When the time is right, I will let Jinger be buried with everyone in the city! "

   "The subordinate understands."

  The phantom figure cupped its hands and slowly disappeared.

In the empty camp, only Chengyang Hou was left alone, quietly looking at the snowflakes flying outside, he sighed lightly, and muttered: "Jing'er, don't worry, what you have is what you have, dad will let you They all went down to be buried with you, but father can't directly do it now!"

  Clenching his fists tightly, Marquis Chengyang said coldly, "Marquis Liu, Qin You, Yang Yunzhi...you all deserve to die!"
