Military Governor
Huangfu Zhengxiao's face was livid, but facing the pressure from Qin Zheng, he had to kneel and bow, "Your Majesty, please punish me!"
"We'll talk about it later!"
Qin Zheng snorted coldly and shouted, "Flying Tiger General!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
A middle-aged man walked out and knelt on one knee.
"You'll be in charge of the defense of the city."
Qin Zheng said calmly.
General Flying Tiger was overjoyed. He bowed his head and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, why don't we take the initiative to attack?"
Nangong Batian suddenly said.
Qin Zheng glanced at him and didn't answer. Instead, he looked at a middle-aged man, "Brother, you haven't fought for many years. It's time for you to move your body."
Qin Mo, father of General of Heavenly Strategies, smiled and nodded, "Brother, that's exactly what I was thinking."
With Qin Zheng's deployment, almost all the 500,000 soldiers stationed in the capital were mobilized.
Finally, Qin Zheng looked at Ning Qi, "Dragon Slayer Marquis, you'll be in charge of this war."
"What?"
"Your Majesty, you can't do that!"
"How can you treat this like a child's play? Dragon Slayer Marquis has no experience in this area!"
Hearing this, all the ministers objected.
"Shut up. I've made up my mind."
Qin Zheng glanced at the officials coldly and said.
Ning Qi wanted to decline, but seeing Qin Zheng's firm attitude, it would be disrespectful to refuse. So he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty!"
… …
"Did you hear? The Qin Tang Empire is going to war with the Red Sun Empire! "
"Tsk tsk, I just saw a group of soldiers leaving the city. Good lord, there are tens of thousands of them. Each of them is the best of the best!"
"Is the Red Sun Empire stupid? How dare they go to war with the Qin Tang Empire?"
In a restaurant, a few guests gathered together and chatted. The lowest cultivation among them was a one-star fighter, while the highest was a Great Fighter.
In the Qin Tang Empire, they would be considered a minor expert.
"I think this is our chance. The Qin Tang Empire hasn't had a war for a long time. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could make some contributions and become a minor official?"
"What Brother Xu said makes sense. Let's go and join the army together!"
Almost everyone in the capital knew about this, but they didn't panic. Instead, most of them were excited. In their eyes, the Red Sun Empire was courting death!
If they knew that the Red Sun Empire had a Dou Zong, they would have packed their bags and fled the capital with their families.
Clearwater Inn.
Almost all of the noble children in the capital had arrived.
Apart from a small number of officials who had followed the army into battle, the idle people like Huangpu Tao and Kong Tianqi were all gathered here.
"Eh, where's Ning Yan?"
Kong Tianqi furrowed his brows and scanned the crowd. He didn't see Ning Yan, which was a little strange.
"Now that his cultivation has been destroyed, it's impossible for him to go out with the army. Could it be that he's hiding at home and not going out just because Ning Qi is back?"
Someone laughed.
Huangpu Tao said indifferently, "Ignore him. What do you all think about the Red Sun Empire's invasion?"
"What opinion can I have? Brother Huangfu, I heard that the Divine Martial Duke has already brought 70,000 troops to battle. Why don't you go with him? When the time comes, you can get some military merits back and the Emperor will reward you handsomely."
Cao Zheng looked at Huangpu Tao and smiled.
"Hmph!"
Huangpu Tao glanced at Cao Zheng and snorted. "This time, Ning Qi is supervising the army. With his vile heart, if I go, will I be able to come back alive?"
"That's right!"
Someone agreed.
"Why would the Emperor let Ning Qi supervise the army? He has no battle experience at all!"
Someone said discontentedly. His tone was filled with jealousy.
"Hehe, the Emperor's decision is not something we can discuss. On the other hand, Brother Huangfu, I heard from my grandfather that your lackey, Long Jiutian, defected to the enemy and was captured by Ning Qi. Is that true?"
Cao Zheng said with a smile.
Huangpu Tao's expression changed. "This has nothing to do with my Huangfu family! Cao Zheng, don't you dare slander my Huangfu family! "
"Hehe, why are you so nervous? I'm just asking."
Cao Zheng said with a smile.
"Hey, who are you? You can't enter as you please!"
A sudden noise came from the door.
Boom!
A servant flew in and landed next to Huangpu Tao's feet.
This servant was Huangpu Tao's attendant.
Huangpu Tao stood up abruptly and looked at the door.
"It's so lively. Everyone is here, right?"
The person glanced at the crowd and smiled.
This person was tall and muscular. The crowd felt a slight pressure in front of him. It was as if they were facing a demonic beast instead of a human.
"Who are you?!"
Huangpu Tao said coldly.
At the same time, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. This person seemed a little familiar.
"You don't recognize me?"
The person's lips curled up into a faint mocking smile.
"Eh, why do you look a little like Ning Yan?"
Kong Tianqi suddenly put away his fan and said in shock.
Ning Yan smiled. "That's because I'm Ning Yan!"
How could it be!
Everyone stood up in shock, their faces filled with bewilderment.
How did Ning Yan become like this?
And from the looks of it, his cultivation seemed to have recovered?
"Today, I came here to tell everyone that the Red Sun Empire's army is pressing down on our borders, and Ning Qi has become the military governor. When the battle is over, the great merit will naturally go to him. At that time, I'm afraid that the Emperor will give him the title of Duke, and there's nothing wrong with that. At that time, those of you who have offended Ning Qi will have a good ending."
Ning Yan said with a smile.
"Are you really Ning Yan? What do you mean by these words? "
Huangpu Tao looked at Ning Yan cautiously.
As a Nine-star Grand Dou Shi, he realized that he couldn't see through Ning Yan's cultivation. It was as if Ning Yan's cultivation was much higher than his!
How was that possible?
Ning Yan was a cripple a few days ago, but he had become a Fighting Spirit in just a few days!
This was even faster than Ning Qi's cultivation speed!
"I've received news that the Red Sun Empire's rations are being transported. There won't be too many experts there. Everyone, do you want to go with me and cut off their rations? When the time comes, the frontline troops will have no rations to use, and the army will naturally be defeated without a fight. You and I will also be the heroes of this battle! Our contributions will far exceed Ning Qi's! "
Ning Yan said calmly.
"Do you really know the rations of the Red Sun Empire?"
Huangpu Tao asked in shock.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. If what Ning Yan said was true, then what awaited them would be monstrous achievements! The second-rate nobles' faces were filled with ecstasy. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
"Of course!"
Ning Yan said.
After pausing for a moment, he continued, "However, I will be in charge of this operation. If you don't want to, you can withdraw!"
"Why?"
Kong Tianqi sneered.
"Because I'm a Fighting Spirit!"
Ning Yan sneered. Faint purple Dou Qi swept out from his body, and a terrifying aura instantly locked onto Kong Tianqi.
Kong Tianqi's face changed slightly.
"Fine! I promise you. But if your information is false, you know the consequences. "
Huangpu Tao said coldly.
