Chapter 846 - Who knows?
Chapter 846 – Who knows?
In the eyes of many people, this battle in the northwest was quite baffling. None of those powerful figures in the central plains didn’t curse or curse. Those who were used to being gentle were also capable of being sharp when insulting others.
Holy See.
The official who thought that he looked a little fat stepped forward and bowed: “Your majesty, this Chen Liuxi must be done!”
Another person also agreed, “That’s right, it’s because of this person’s impulsiveness that caused the Northwest to fall into chaos. Right now, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were dragged into the fray by him. So what if he won? The war reports said that nearly a million demon beasts had been exterminated in the northwest … Where are my soldiers? A loss is not a loss? ”
“That’s right, and even said that they killed three leaders of Lower Celestial Stage level demon beasts … I’m afraid it’s just a false report of my military exploits. If there really are that many Lower Celestial Stagmongst the beasts, it would be strange that we haven’t met them before. ”
“You’re right, this Chen Liuxi is just too arrogant. The balance in the northwest side was suddenly broken. This was the blessing of the heavens, the Great Xixi. The Buddhist land in the west did not take advantage of this situation to attack. Otherwise, if the northwest border is empty, then the buddhist forces will be able to go straight in! ”
“I think this Chen Liuxi must be killed. Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, this person must not be denied for him to have caused sucuge loss. His Majesty wanted him to train in the northwest, not start a war. Now that the Northwest has become such a mess, with so many people suffering, will he come to clean up? ”
Wen En, who was standing beside the Sacred Emperor, squinted his eyes as he looked at the important figures. It was these people who held the power of the imperial court. They can say black to white, and of course they can say white to black. With the price of losing no more than 30,000 people, they had killed close to a million demon beasts. Among them, there were three leaders of Lower Celestial Stage level demon beasts and at leasundred Lower Completion Stage level demon beasts … It was precisely this kind of victory that was recorded in the annals of history.
He sneaked a peek at Chen Wunuo and realized that the Sacred Emperor didn’t react at all. It was precisely because of this that the people below seemed to have found hope, and their words became even more vigorous.
“Your majesty, this Chen Liuxi is not one of our people, he wouldn’t be loyal to Da Xi or to you. He was an impulsive fellow. All he knew was that if he kept charging forward, it would ruin everything. Even if His Majesty is merciful and does not kill him, you should expel him from Da Xi city. ”
“Yes!” This person absolutely could not be left alive. Sucuge mess in the Northwest, with millions of people homeless, these are all his crimes, and no matter how one puts it, they can’t be denied. ”
“All of you are right.”
Chen Wunuo finally opened his mouth and said something, and those people immediately became happy upon hearing it.
Chen Wunuo slowly said: “You are indeed too rash. Bringing six hundred people with you to wage war on the demon beast army. A young man who had only just passed the Lower Celestial Stage, was actually able to finish off the leader of the demonic beasts who was even stronger than him without noticing the situation … This is too much. ”
He pointed to the person who spoke first: “Li Cheng Lu, how about this … I will give you six thousand people, go to the northwest and return Chen Liuxi to us. “I will ruthlessly punish him. Even if I don’t kill him, I will skin him alive. What do you think?”
The slightly fat official was stunned for a moment before smiling in embarrassment, “This … This official is not good at military affairs, I’m afraid that it will implicate the lives of those soldiers. ”
“Praise you!”
Chen Wunuo looked at the second person who spoke: “Li Cheng Lu said that it’s impossible, I think you can do it. Didn’t Chen Liuxi bring six hundred people to the Northwest, I will give you ten times the manpower. Let’s go now, don’t tell me you can’t. I don’t want to hear the reason why you can’t go, because if I tell you to go, you don’t have the right to refuse. ”
He glanced around. “Who do you think can say no in front of me?”
Those people all left with their heads lowered, not saying a word. They still hadn’t figured out whether the Sacred Emperor was sending them or trying to intimidate them. Only then did they realize that they had been too hasty. If it was in the past, this person would definitely be crippled. Why didn’t the Saint King follow them this time around? The Sacred Emperor would not hesitate to go against the officials from the left and right for that one person?
“This Emperor has been too used to all of you.”
Chen Wunuo glanced at Li Cheng Lu: “You didn’t hear my words.”
“Huh?”
Li Cheng Lu was stunned for a moment, “This subject has heard everything His Majesty said just now, what sentence is it?”
“Go to the northwest. This Emperor knows that you look down on those who do not know how to fight and are implicating the innocent with the commoners. This Emperor has said that I will give you six thousand people to go now.”
“This official … Your subject is not good at leading troops, please retract your order. ”
“What did you say?”
Chen Wunuo frowned slightly: “You just said that you want us to take back what we said? “Who are you?”
Li Cheng Lu realized that she was in big trouble this time, and knelt on the ground withump: “This subject knows my wrongs, this subject should not be jealous of Chen Liuxi, but this subject has thought of a bad idea, this subject requests your majesty to punish me, this subject does not dare delay the lives of thousands of soldiers!”
“Jealous?”
Chen Wunuo shook his head: “You are speaking too lightly. It’s not that you are thinking badly, it’s not that it’s bad, it’s just that it’s evil. Are you still waiting for me to say ihird time? ”
Li Cheng Lu’s face was pale, “This subject knows his wrongs.”
“Wen En!”
Chen Wunuo suddenly shouted.
Wen En hurriedly took a few steps forward and stood in front of Chen Wunuo with his head lowered: “This old servant is here.”
“How can you judge the crime if you don’t respect the edict?!”
Wen En replied with his head lowered: “I will kill you all.”
“Then we shall kill them all.”
Chen Wunuo waved his hand: “Go out and chop off your head and hang it at the entrance of the market. He also told the people of the Li family that he would be convicted on his own, and then hand him over to the quiet garden. I am too lazy to ask them one by one what they did wrong.
Wen En lowered his head, “Yes.”
He stood up straight. “Palace Warriors!”
“Here!”
Eight warriors wearing black armors walked up and encircled Li Chenglu. Following Wen En’s order to make a decision, the warriors bent over and dragged Li Cheng Lu out. Li Cheng Lu was completely scared silly. She didn’t know how this had happened. Only after being pulled out of the great hall did he remember to beg for mercy. The wails shook the clouds in the sky until they were about to scatter.
“Killing millions of enemies has been made intathetic defeat by you all.”
“The demon beasts in the Northwest have been almost completely wiped out. It seems that the Northwest has been controlled by the demon beasts …”
Chen Wunuo raised his hand and puckered his brows, “Just now, who else did we send to the northwest?”
Gao Dazhi, who had been called out, quickly lowered his head, “This official will go right now.”
He turned around and was about to leave, but after just a few steps, he heard Chen Wunuo say coldly from behind him, “Don’t go to the northwest. You should go to the south. I’ll give you six thousand men. You should go to the south and follow the Duke of Qin in his rebellion. You can decide for yourself whether you live or die. ”
Gao Dazhang was stunned for a moment before he quickly bowed his head, “This subject obeys your command.”
Chen Wunuo looked at the others, “Who else has to say?”
Silence.
“I am very sad.”
Chen Wunuo said in a somewhat dazed manner: “What kind of people have we raised all these years …? Didn’t all of you secretly say that Da Xi was going to fall into chaos? Aren’t you all secretly preparing for the end of Da Xi? Since you have no more secrets, what is there for me to be afraid of? I can clearly tell you that I don’t need Li Cheng Lu to praise sucerson. I can chop off Li Cheng Lu’s head, or I can chop off someone else’s head. You can try and see whether Da Xi or you guys will be the first to die. ”
He stood up and waved his hand. “Think about it for yourself. Is This Emperor afraid of you?”
Wen En lowered his head and followed behind Chen Wunuo as he left the Holy See. Everyone stood there for a moment, unsure of what to do. Should they leave or stay? Go? Whoever left first would be the unlucky one. Not leaving? How long are we going to stand here?
Northwest
It had already been fifteen days. The demon beasts in the northwest were basically cleared. Even if they came on a large scale, they would give the people in the northwest at least fifteen days of respite. They could retreat to the Central Plains under the protection of the Da Xi army, and this was an order from the Holy See.
An Zheng naturally understood what was going on … The underground palace had almost been exposed and Chen Wunuo’s nerves were aching once. He did not allow anything to happen to the underground palace, which was why he had evacuated the civilians. In this way, he assumed a posture of fighting to the end with the demon beasts in the northwest. But the people of the northwest were gone, so what was the demon beast doing in the northwest? For the sake of that underground palace, Chen Wunuo didn’t hesitate to move the battlefield to the Central Plains area. An Zheng guessed that there must be some other secret he didn’t know about in that underground palace.
If it was just to prepare for the future, the price he had to pay now was already big enough. There was no need to move all the citizens of the Northwest into the city. How big a move would that be? The amount of manpower and resources needed to be transferred was an astronomical figure. Moreover, this way, the situation of the Northwest Army would be even more dangerous. Having lost support from the rear meant that Chen Wunuo had voluntarily given up on North Atlantic.
Standing in front of Su Ruhai’s grave, An Zheng spilled a bottle of wine: “It’s time to go back, the northwest side has already become a wasteland. Apart from the army, he might not see any ordinary people for a long time. For the army, however, this was the beginning of a nightmare. “They must defend the border, and no one will be able to stop them …”
As he was muttering these words to himself, the Yuwen Clan’s Patriarch, Yu Wending, came to his side. Previously, An Zheng was wearing a mask when he came to the northwest to kill Chen Zhongqi, so he did not recognise him.
“Is the Taoist leaving?”
“Yeah, he’s leaving.”
“Should I thank you or hate you?”
Yu Wending glanced at An Zheng: “Because you’re here, so we had no choice but to start fighting in the northwest earlier. Of course we fought very well, and the better we were, the better it is. With your control, Da Xi’s army will be able to deploy and annihilate all of them … But what about the soldiers from the northwest? The moment they start to retreat, in a situation where no one is around for thousands of miles, they won’t be able to get any support … ”
Yu Wending let out a long sigh of relief, “My only hope is that those monsters will follow your Majesty’s plans.”
“That person called Monarch is no fool.”
An Zheng said indifferently, “His Majesty’s layout in the northwest is too obvious. Either he has other deeper intentions or he has...”
He didn’t finish his sentence, and turned to look at Yu Wending: “I hope it’s the former. The monsters have already touched the underground palace, they won’t give up. The more they don’t know what it is, the crazier they become. ”
“I’m noolitician.”
Yu Wending laughed bitterly: “Compared to my younger brother, I’m far too inferior. I am just a member of the Yuwen Clan, who has been protecting the Northwest Mission for generations. Therefore, no matter what happens here, I will not leave. However … I always wanted to know what I was protecting. The people have already retreated. What I am protecting is this scorched earth? Or the underground palace? [What on earth is there in the underground palace that can make His Majesty so paranoid?]
An Zheng detected something from Yu Wending’s tone. He looked at Yu Wending and Yu Wending smiled at him, “At least I know why I died.”
An Zheng sighed: “You are indeed noolitician.”
Yu Wending: “If you travel a day slower than a large group of people, you should be fine, right?”
“What do you think?”
An Zheng asked.
Yu Wending said: “I feel that you are just as curious as me.”
An Zheng shook his head: “No, I can leave, but you can’t, so we are different.”
Yu Wending stayed silent for a while, before saying: “But you won’t leave so soon, right?”
An Zheng shrugged his shoulders and looked in the direction of Mount Pan: “Who knows.”
