Chapter 488: General Zhenxi
Chapter 488: General Zhenxi
Lin Feng thought of this and looked outside.
It seems that the dream I just had cannot be realized for the time being.
Lin Feng didn’t remember exactly who said that before fighting foreign enemies, one must first stabilize the country, but he thought it made sense.
"Don't worry, Kyoto City is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and King Fu won't be able to do anything about it for a while."
Zhao Shuo said anxiously, "Brother, the Black Scarf Society's infiltration and persuasion are very powerful. I'm afraid they'll start from the inside. No matter how strong the city walls are, they won't be able to stop the inside from collapsing first."
Lin Feng nodded, indicating that he agreed with his opinion.
Tiezhen can only put this side aside for the time being. The grassland is vast, and the troops he brought with him are not enough.
If we divide our forces further, I'm afraid the result will not be good.
Thinking of this, I no longer hesitated.
"Go and inform all the generals to pack up and prepare to withdraw."
Zhao Shuo suddenly looked excited and shouted loudly.
"Thank you, brother. Oh, thank you, General Zhenxi!"
As he spoke, he knelt on one knee and bowed to express his gratitude.
Lin Feng waved his hand: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and pass the order."
Cheng Liang and Wen Jian heard their conversation at the door and looked very excited. Since their boss was getting promoted, naturally they would not be left behind either.
Zhao Shuo ran out in a hurry and almost bumped into Li Donglai who was walking in quickly.
"Hey, kid, what are you panicking about?"
Li Donglai turned his head and cursed with a smile.
Zhao Shuo ignored him and ran away.
Li Donglai turned around and looked at Lin Feng excitedly.
"Boss, you are amazing! Tao Jinwang is alive!"
Lin Feng smiled faintly: "He was not dead in the first place."
"But if the boss doesn't take action, Tao Jinwang will definitely die."
"Well, that's the truth."
Li Donglai approached Lin Feng mysteriously, staring into Lin Feng's eyes.
"Boss, you're really not from there?"
As he spoke, he raised his index finger and pointed upwards.
"Where is that?"
"Heaven, that's where the gods live."
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Why don't you try burning three sticks of incense in the morning and evening?"
"To your idol?"
Li Donglai asked with a sincere and serious look on his face.
"You don't need idols, just pray sincerely in your heart, hoping you can get a promotion or make a fortune in the near future. It might work."
"Really?"
Lin Feng waved his hand: "Go and pray, then gather the team and prepare to set off."
Li Donglai took a few steps back reluctantly. When he reached the door, he bowed solemnly to Lin Feng before turning around and walking out of the house.
Lin Feng waited until they all left, then sat behind his desk, thinking about how to deal with the two cities within the borders of Tiezhen.
After thinking for a while, a strange smile appeared on his face.
In the Tiezhen Imperial City, Emperor Wanyan Wufeng received the news of Wanyan Anxu's defeat.
He was stunned for a moment, staring at the magnificent pillars of the hall, motionless for a long time.
He no longer has a decent army.
The armies of each tribe have withdrawn to their own territories, and it is extremely difficult to organize them.
Is this God's will to kill me?
He kept muttering: "Lin Feng...Lin Feng...Tian Lei..."
He sat there for half a day and did not even have dinner, wanting to wait until the court meeting the next morning to let the ministers make a decision.
But, I finally waited until the next day.
Wanyan Wufeng, sitting on the dragon throne, looked at the ministers below and was surprised to find that.
Many tribal ministers disappeared quietly.
These were the well-informed guys who had received the news of Wanyan Anxu's defeat early on and felt that the Tiezhen tribe could no longer win the support of the people.
Therefore, the chiefs of several large tribes and ministers in the court secretly slipped away.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter, which is exactly what Wanyan Wufeng is in now.
The Tiezhen tribe has ruled the entire grassland for hundreds of years and has never encountered such a predicament.
This made Wanyan Wufeng feel a pang of pain in his heart. Is the Tiezhen Dynasty going to be defeated by him?
Seeing the emperor's grim expression, Wanyan Wuji hurried forward.
"Royal brother, let's wait until Wanyan Anxu comes back. It shouldn't be too bad."
Wanyan Wufeng covered his chest and looked at him with a frown.
"We've already lost, how bad can it get?"
"Perhaps the two sides fought so hard that the Qingshui Army was no longer able to advance north."
Wanyan Wufeng slapped the dragon table vigorously. "Here's the battle report. We've been utterly defeated and scattered, being chased and attacked. Could it be any worse?"
He practically roared, his roar echoing throughout the hall.
All the civil and military officials bowed their heads and remained silent, not daring to move.
"Usually, they are so arrogant that they look down on everyone. Now, they are defeated one after another. Do they want me to lead the troops myself?"
When the left prime minister Wusare heard this, he was moved.
Relying on the fact that he was a veteran of three dynasties, he took a step forward.
"Your Majesty, this is not a bad idea. Your Majesty leading the army in person can greatly boost the morale of the soldiers and inspire their spirits. They will all fight bravely and defeat the Qingshui army in one fell swoop and drive them out of the country."
Wanyan Wufeng was dumbfounded. I just said something in anger. Do you really want me to go to the front line?
After years of living a life of luxury, how could he still ride a horse?
Not to mention riding a horse, even riding in a car would make your internal organs burst in less than half a day.
Wanyan Wufeng stared at the old man in front of him with hatred and was unable to say a word for a while.
Wanyan Wuji was not good at leading troops in battle, but he was an expert at reading people's expressions.
"Nonsense! How can Your Majesty so easily tread on dangerous ground? A gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall. If you don't understand this principle, how can you be a minister? Why don't you step down?"
Wusare took two steps back in embarrassment. He was still a little afraid of the prince.
Wanyan Wufeng glanced at his younger brother with gratitude.
We are still brothers, blood is thicker than water, and I am not lying to you.
He then glanced at His Highness and his ministers and asked, "Who will relieve my worries?"
There was a dead silence in the hall. At this moment, all the ministers even breathed very softly, for fear of making any noise and attracting the emperor's attention.
Wusare didn't say anything either. He was unhappy because he had just been scolded.
Wanyan Wufeng waited for a while, and seeing that no one spoke, he waved his hand irritably.
"Let's go, let's go."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the ministers bowed in greeting as if they had heard of a general amnesty.
"Best regards, Your Majesty."
Wanyan Wufeng had no choice but to stand up, wave to Wanyan Wuji, then turned and left.
Wanyan Wuji followed the emperor out of the hall.
At this moment, a burst of heavy breathing sounds was heard in the hall, as if everyone had breathed a sigh of relief.
Some generals even secretly wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads.
Wanyan Wufeng came to his imperial study and asked someone to call Wanyan Qingtian over.
Three important figures of the Tiezhen royal family got together.
The reason why Wanyan Qingtian was re-employed was because he had stayed in Zhenxi the longest and understood Lin Feng better than others.
Wanyan Qingtian also heard the news of Wanyan Anxu's defeat, and he knew why the emperor was looking for him.
After entering the imperial study, he lowered his head and remained silent, waiting for the emperor to ask questions.
I am still guilty, so there is no point in saying more.
Wanyan Wufeng nodded when he saw Wanyan Qingtian's honest look.
"I summoned you here to ask, can the Qingshui Army still be restrained?"
