Chapter 561: Working together, stepping on Xiao Wangye’s corpse (Part 1)
The Northern Army generals wanted to take advantage of Xiao Tianyao’s story to curry favor to the eldest prince, Xuanyuan Zhi, and at the same time, use the eldest prince’s hand to kill Xiao Tianyao. However, the Northern Army generals can’t afford the consequences if the news was fake, so they pushed this matter to the Eastern Army, but… …
The Eastern Army generals felt the same. They want to carry favor to Xuanyuan Zhi more than the Northern Army and want to calm Xuanyuan Zhi’s anger. But they were also afraid that the news was fake. Xuanyuan Zhi will definitely get angrier if he loses a face again.
“Let’s make a bet. If we win this bet, we will kill two birds with one stone.” The bold eastern general said aggressively.
If they win, not only they will curry favor to Xuanyuan Zhi, but also kill Xiao Tianyao with the help of the Central Empire.
As long as they win the bet, they are the winner.
But… …
“What if we lose? If the eldest prince failed to win, he won’t let us go. And if Xiao Wangye also learns that we calculated him like this, not only we will be unlucky but also our descendants. We may even sink for thousands of years.” The coward eastern general stood up and said with a cold face.
You can’t blame them for being timid, the consequences were too serious for them to bear.
“What do you mean? Let go of such a good opportunity? You should also know very clearly that if the person above us learn that we missed such a good opportunity, we and our future generations will also have no way to survive.” This time the bold faction was determined to take a risk.
They were people on the side of the emperor, they were destined to be Xiao Wangye’s enemies. If they want themselves and their future generations to rise, they can only get rid of Xiao Wangye and stepped on his corpse.
“I just hope for us to be more cautious and not fall into the trap Xiao Wangye and the Northern Army’s trap. Xiao Wangye kept hiding on his door, and he proposed to change the time of the submission of the letter of surrender. Don’t you think that Xiao Wangye is playing with us?” To persuade everyone, the timid general boldly said: “We have been speculating that Xiao Wangye is injured, but have you ever thought of another possibility?”
“What possibility?” The cautious general asked.
“Xiao Wangyeis not injured, nor cultivating to be a martial god. He was hiding in the dark and waiting for us to jump out.” This was mentioned before, but no one believes it: “You mentioned that Xiao Wangye didn’t show up for 10 days, but there are no force fluctuations in his camp. I believe that Xiao Wangye is injured. Why don’t you think that Xiao Wangye may not be in the camp?”
“If Xiao Wangye is not in the camp, then where is he?” The bold and timid factions looked at the timid general, waiting for him to convince themselves further.
The timid general was not afraid and said: “I had this speculation before, but I couldn’t think of a reason. But today, people from Northern Army came to us with news and I suddenly thought of something.”
“What’s up?”
“The eldest prince and the black-armored guard suddenly appeared at the border between the Northern and Eastern Country. Why? What kind of task can require the eldest prince and the black-armored guard to be dispatched? You know, whether it is the eastern or northern country, we can’t deal with the Central Empire’s prince. Ordinary tasks don’t require princes to bring the black-armored guards with them.” The timid general suddenly mentioned the things that the deputy commander of the Northern Army thought 10 days ago.
When the bold general heard this, he immediately thought of something: “The mission the eldest prince is going to do must be very profitable and useful, but not too dangerous. The reason why the black-armored guards should be dispatched is that the value brought by this task is very high.”
