The Fantasy World of Chivalrous Disciples
Chapter 43 Taking Command
(3)
Unwelcome visitors will meet again after half a year.
Bai Feng once again put on his military uniform and came to the palace. This time, he set foot here as a member of the Gao Family Army.
——No cheers, no one to greet you.
——Not a hero, nor a villain.
He's just a cockroach, and he's met with cold looks and contempt wherever he goes.
In the palace, Bai Feng is like a monster. Even if he doesn't show his teeth yet, anyone who sees him will immediately become wary.
"Don't pay attention to them, just focus on moving forward." Gao Gao said: "If a real man has to shrink back when encountering rumors, he will not achieve great things."
After hearing this, Bai Feng suddenly sneered and said: "Back off? Ha, I wish they would treat me like this! It is a ranger's honor to be hated by them."
"You brat, you won't survive for a few days in the palace if you are a fool like you! This is not your 'feast'." Gao Gao poked Bai Feng's forehead with his finger and scolded him with a hint of endearment: "Wait a minute.
When you meet the emperor later, you don’t have to say a word. If you say too much, you will be wrong. At this time, you must not think about being the first to make the first move. Do you understand me?"
Bai Feng felt this caution in words and deeds, and then he raised his hands in a very solemn manner and said: "General Gao, I just made a joke. The general taught me, and I will never forget it."
"Hey, what I'm most afraid of in my life is people like you who like to say what's on your mind as a joke." As he spoke, an official came from the corner in front and said hello.
It was Shangshu Ling Lu Qi who once strongly remonstrated in front of Gao Huan to expel Bai Feng.
"Two generals, you are well." Lu Qi bowed his hands and said in respect: "The battle ahead is urgent, do you two generals have any countermeasures? I heard that this time the Beizhen and Rouran coalition forces have a hundred thousand troops, and only the five thousand Gao family troops
, how to deal with the enemy?”
Gao Gao replied: "They are not going south immediately. We have at least one winter left to recruit troops and horses locally. It should not be difficult to gather 50,000 troops."
"No, general, if things were to go as smoothly as this, I wouldn't have come to advise you two." Lu Qi sighed and continued: "The Yuwen family sent envoys here again. Not only that, they also gathered five thousand people."
The elite troops are stationed at the Wei River. Looking at this battle, the Western Front will inevitably have to prepare for war. In other words, the court does not have so many troops to allocate to the Gao family's army. This time, the two generals may have to fight alone."
Gao Gao nodded silently and watched Lu Qi leave. As soon as Bai Feng saw the person leaving, he immediately asked: "This clearly wants us to die!"
"Shut up!" He replied in a high-spirited voice: "Remember, don't say a word later. We'll just wait and see what happens."
After the two of them finished speaking, they immediately went to court with other officials to see the emperor.
People who have never been to the palace may imagine in their hearts that the ideal palace would have particularly spacious roads. The floor tiles along the way are all made of marble. There are magnificent palaces, city walls, and majestic buildings everywhere.
Soldiers on patrol.
But for Bai Feng, all these things were obscured by the haze in his heart. He even felt that he could not see those tall buildings that would be surprising to ordinary people, because as long as he raised his head, he could feel the enemies surrounding him.
All around.
"I can't feel at ease at all."
Bai Feng followed Gao Gao into the palace. After a while, Mei Lin, the emperor's confidant, loudly summoned the envoys of the Zhou Dynasty.
I saw a handsome young man coming alone. He was wearing a brocade hat and mink fur, and he was handsome. As soon as he opened his mouth, Bai Feng recognized him: "Yu Wenxuan, the envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, pays homage to the King of Qi."
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately aroused discussions among civil and military officials.
"Shuzi, how dare you despise us!"
"The person who came here is not good."
"Humph, let's see what other tricks he has up his sleeve."
King of Qi is a taboo name for the king of princes. Yu Wenxuan changed his name from the past to call Gao Huan King of Qi. The implication is that he felt that Gao Huan, who had established himself as emperor, had an unfair name and was actually a traitor!
Mei Lin saw that this young man was so arrogant, and immediately ordered his attendants: "Come here, drag this envoy out and kill him!"
"Slow down!" Gao Huan stood up and walked to Yu Wenxuan and said, "I don't know, King Zhou, do you have any advice?"
"Your Majesty specially ordered Yu Wenxuan to come here to help King Qi solve his problems." Yu Wenxuan clapped his hands, and his bodyguard Zhu Dian, a rough man with a huge body, walked up with a map.
Yu Wenxuan pointed to Beizhen on the map, faced the officials of the Qi Dynasty, and continued: "In the past year, Beizhen has been recruiting troops and is ready to take action. It even does not hesitate to instigate Rouran people to join them. With such wolfish ambitions, you will not just sit back and watch, right?"
"Zhou and Qi, the two countries have stopped their troops for a year. The people are happy and the soldiers are lazy. They have to gather enough troops to resist Beizhen in just one winter. No matter it is Zhou or Qi, there is nothing we can do."
After Yu Wenxuan spoke to the officials, he bowed his hands to Gao Huan and said in respect: "For this reason, the king ordered Yu Wenxuan to come to negotiate peace with the King of Qi and form an alliance. Instead of dividing the troops to fight, it is better to unite and fight together! The Central Plains is the state of Zhou and Qi.
The Central Plains of our country cannot tolerate intrusion by others, not to mention that the two countries are both born from the same roots, so why be too hasty in fighting each other?"
This series of tongue-in-cheek lotuses was amazing. From the beginning, which was neither humble nor arrogant, to the last quotation of scriptures, almost everyone present was convinced.
Another hussar general, Murong An, couldn't help but stepped forward to remonstrate: "Your Majesty, forming an alliance at this time is indeed beneficial without any harm. However, I see that the Miao border in the southwest is also about to start. In this war, the Liang Kingdom
I'm afraid they will take advantage of the chaos to send troops. I am brave and willing to lead troops to guard Nanguan!"
"Okay." Gao Huan thought for a moment and ordered the commander of the Gao family's army. General Hussar Gao Gao stepped forward to listen to the order: "I order General Gao Gao of Hussar to be the chief general and Bai Feng to be the deputy general. He will lead the Gao family's army of five thousand elite cavalry to fight with the King of Zhou.
Reinforcements will be gathered north of the Wei River, and we will select a day to send troops to the northern town to attack the rebels together!"
"Your Majesty, I obey the order." Gao Gao accepted the order, and with Bai Feng and envoy Yu Wenxuan, he retreated from the court and began to prepare for the war.
What seems like an inspiring meeting is actually full of hidden murderous intent.
Bai Feng was not fooled by Yu Wenxuan's words. Although this did not mean that he did not admire Yu Wenxuan's courage and wisdom as an envoy, he was fundamentally opposed to this war.
Because what he has to face is the army he built with his own hands, his former best friends, and his beloved Beizhen.
In fact, it is not only that. As long as Bai Feng is driven out of the capital, Murong Yan's life and death will completely fall into the hands of Taiping Dao. If he wants to see his wife and daughter again, he must be completely reduced to a pawn. If he really wants to go along with those high-ranking officials
According to the nobleman's wishes, Bai Feng has really lost everything.
It was almost like they were in the same situation as "White Snake Immortal" Gao Zhen decades ago. They both had to make similar choices.
——Exile yourself and leave everything behind to protect your family.
——Seize the only opportunity and break through the shackles with your family.
"After all, I am different from you, Master."
"I will work with the Saint to bring the Gao family army back to Beizhen."
