Yang Wu and Shou Hou followed Yan Mingzheng and the others back to the Barbarian Suppression Army.
Yan Mingzheng had been banished to the army at the age of 16 and had been there for ten years. He could be considered a veteran and knew the terrain of this area like the back of his hand. It was easy for him to bring Yang Wu and Shou Hou back to the barracks.
When they returned, a troop came up to greet them. This was the defensive infantry. They saw Shou Hou driving a bull with a barbarian's head hanging on it. The leader cupped his hands and smiled at Yan Mingzheng, "Congratulations to Commander Yan for making another military contribution."
"Captain Guo, you must be joking. These military contributions weren't made by me. They were made by two brothers from the Death Legion." Yan Mingzheng didn't claim credit and answered honestly. He paused for a moment and said, "Please let me through, Captain Guo. I have something urgent to report to the general."
"Okay, let me check!" The man called Captain Guo responded and ordered the others to quickly inspect Yan Mingzheng's group to see if there were any barbarian spies. After confirming that there were no spies, they were allowed to pass through.
When Yang Wu and Shou Hou passed through, the man called Captain Guo looked at Yang Wu and Shou Hou. Finally, he fixed his gaze on Yang Wu and asked, "You're Yang Wu from the Death Legion?"
Yang Wu was stunned for a moment and nodded, "That's me."
"That's right. Men, tie him up." Captain Guo's expression turned cold as he shouted.
In an instant, several soldiers surrounded Yang Wu and placed their weapons on Yang Wu's neck. They wanted to release Yang Wu.
"Guo Minzhi, what do you mean by this?" Yan Mingzheng immediately asked with dissatisfaction.
Along the way, he had a good impression of Yang Wu. Moreover, he was his savior. How could he watch as Yang Wu was captured?
"Commander Yan, this is the person that Commander Cao wanted to capture. He is a prison slave soldier and a criminal." Guo Minzhi responded.
"Why does Cao Qinggong want to capture him? There has to be a reason. Even if he is a prison slave soldier, he has the right to clear his name after being sent to the Death Legion. What right does Cao Qinggong have to capture him again? "Yan Mingzheng frowned.
Guo Minzhi was at a loss for words.
He didn't expect Yan Mingzheng to be so protective of Yang Wu. After all, Yan Mingzheng's status was similar to Cao Qinggong's. They both had the potential to become major generals of the younger generation.
Guo Minzhi gritted his teeth and said, "I don't dare to disobey Commander Cao's orders. Please don't make things difficult for me, Commander Yan."
"Looks like you've also become Cao Qinggong's follower. He hasn't become a major general yet, let alone a young marshal." Yan Mingzheng sneered. Then he pulled Yang Wu's arm and said, "Brother Yang, let's go. Let's see who dares to catch you."
Yan Mingzheng was the vice commander of the scout camp. His status was much higher than Guo Minzhi's. Guo Minzhi didn't dare to disobey, but that didn't mean that others didn't. Someone rushed over and shouted, "Under the orders of General Cao, we are to capture Yang Wu. Anyone who disobeys will be beheaded!"
The person who rushed over held a token. Immediately, everyone present knelt down, including Yan Mingzheng. This was a lieutenant general's token, second only to the general's token.
"Brother Yang, how did you offend Cao Qinggong? He actually got a general's order to capture you!" Yan Mingzheng whispered to Yang Wu.
Yang Wu replied with a sullen face, "I don't know any Cao Qinggong at all!"
"If you don't know him, then why does he want to capture you?" Yan Mingzheng asked again.
"Maybe it's because my crime is too big." Yang Wu sighed softly.
He knew very well that those who wanted to deal with him could casually arrange a crime and put him to death, unless he rebelled now.
The person who came quickly arrived in front of everyone and said to Guo Minzhi, "Captain Guo, what are you waiting for? Tie up the criminal."
"Yes!" Guo Minzhi replied excitedly.
He had been afraid of Yan Mingzheng before, but now that there was a general's order, he naturally wouldn't be afraid anymore.
Just as Guo Minzhi and the others were about to take Yang Wu, Shou Hou shouted, "Don't even think about capturing my big brother. We've already earned a lot of merits and will soon be rid of our crimes. You can't just arbitrarily torture him!"
"Hehe, you've come to the military camp. You have to obey orders. Violators will be killed!" The person who had just arrived sneered.
Shou Hou wanted to resist, but Yang Wu stopped him and said, "You go back to the Death Corps first. I'll be fine."
Yang Wu surrendered without putting up a fight. He did not resist and allowed the soldiers to take him to a tent.
Since Fire Cloud Tiger and Little Hei, who had followed him back, were nowhere to be found, they didn't brazenly follow them into the army.
"Brother Yang, don't worry. I'll definitely think of a way to save you!" Yan Mingzheng's face was filled with determination as he shouted and quickly ran in another direction. Obviously, he was going to ask for help.
Shou Hou looked on helplessly as Yang Wu was captured. His eyes were filled with tears as he clenched his fists and said, "Big brother, you must be fine!"
Immediately after, he ran back to the Death Corps, hoping to use his merits to exchange for Yang Wu's life.
Yang Wu was quickly brought to a tent. He saw a young man dressed in green sitting in front of a couch with two maids serving him. He was enjoying an extremely luxurious life.
This young man was quite handsome, and there was a sharp aura around him. He was quite a charming person.
He was one of the vice commanders of the heavy armor camp, Cao Qinggong. He was one of the candidates for major general.
There were a total of eight major generals, all of whom were the youngest talents in the barbarian suppression army. Now that the major generals of the previous generation had been promoted to lieutenant general, the battle for major general was about to begin. Cao Qinggong was undoubtedly the most popular candidate.
Only by becoming a major general could one be qualified to compete for the most powerful position of young marshal. That was the first among the younger generation and could command an army of 50,000 people. It was equivalent to holding one-third of the power among the generals. His status was almost the same as a lieutenant general and he could become a marshal in the future.
A young marshal and eight major generals had always been the tradition of the barbarian suppression army. It was exactly the same as the grand marshal and the eight lieutenant generals.
After Guo Minzhi brought Yang Wu to the tent, he respectfully knelt down and said to Cao Qinggong, "Commander Cao, I've brought Yang Wu."
Guo Minzhi chose to follow Cao Qinggong because he thought highly of Cao Qingying. Not only did he have a lieutenant general father, but he had also touched the top general realm. Before the battle between young marshal and major general began, he should be able to break through that step. At that time, Cao Qinggong might be able to take the step of becoming a young marshal. If this happened, Guo Minzhi would benefit.
Cao Qinggong raised his eyes and nodded at Guo Minzhi. Then he looked at Yang Wu and said, "You're Yang Wu, the one who injured my cousin. I heard that you obtained an incredible damaged royal weapon. Show it to me."
"The weapon has been destroyed!" Yang Wu replied.
"Is that so? Then you can die! "Cao Qinggong said calmly without showing the slightest change in his expression.
"Many people want me to die, but I'm still alive!" At this moment, Yang Wu didn't plan to stay quiet. He might rebel.
"How dare you talk to Commander Cao like this!" Guo Minzhi rebuked angrily. Then he raised his hand and slapped Yang Wu angrily.
Yang Wu was tied up but he could still move. He nimbly turned his face to avoid Guo Minzhi's slap. He looked at Guo Minzhi coldly and shouted, "Who do you think you are?"
As Yang Wu shouted, the ox tendon rope tied to his body instantly broke inch by inch. A powerful aura was unmistakable on his body.
He had finally gathered 500 barbarian heads with great difficulty. Before he could hand in the merit points, he was about to be beheaded. He really couldn't stand it anymore.
Guo Minzhi was so frightened by Yang Wu's aura that he took two steps back. An ugly expression appeared on his face as he said, "You still want to resist? Take him down and behead him!"
There were a total of four people who had just released Yang Wu. They had been behind Yang Wu all this time. When they heard Guo Minzhi's rebuke, they wanted to capture Yang Wu. However, Yang Wu had already decided to go all out. How could he let them succeed? He turned around and kicked at the four people, sending them flying.
Those people were only at the warrior level. Yang Wu could easily deal with them.
"You dare to rebel …" Guo Minzhi angrily shouted. He was about to pull out his sword to kill Yang Wu, but unfortunately, before he could even finish his words, Yang Wu's hand had already clasped his neck, squeezing so hard that he couldn't even speak.
"Do you believe that I won't break your neck right now?" Yang Wu's eyes flashed with a strong light as he shouted.
Guo Minzhi revealed an extremely fearful expression. He felt that if he dared to struggle and resist, Yang Wu would really dare to kill him.
"You really have guts. How dare you violate military discipline!" Cao Qinggong said faintly.
"You want to take my weapon and kill me. Who is the one who violated military discipline first?" Yang Wu questioned Cao Qinggong.
"Haha, I'm a commander. You're just a prison slave soldier. I'm already giving you face by asking you to die. You still don't know what's good for you. Do you really think you can overturn the heavens here?" Cao Qinggong looked at Yang Wu contemptuously and said.
"I can't overturn the heavens, but it shouldn't be difficult to take you down." After Yang Wu said that, he grabbed at Cao Qinggong.
Since he wanted to save his life, he had to take Cao Qinggong as a hostage first and escape from here. When he cultivated to the King Realm, he could return to King City. It was better than losing his life here.
"How dare you!" The women serving Cao Qinggong shouted at the same time. Sharp daggers appeared in their hands, and they stabbed at Yang Wu at the same time.
These two women had actually reached the Top Warrior Realm. Their strength was not bad.
Unfortunately, this bit of strength was not enough in Yang Wu's eyes. Yang Wu stretched out his hands and grabbed their wrists. He shouted, "Let go!"
Clang!
The daggers in the hands of the two women fell to the ground at the same time. They were rudely pushed away by Yang Wu. There was no way for them to obstruct Yang Wu at all.
However, at this moment, Cao Qinggong, who was sitting, suddenly exploded. He used his finger as a sword and went straight for Yang Wu's throat. The sharp sword Qi reached Yang Wu's throat in an instant. As long as it moved forward, it would pierce through Yang Wu's throat.
Yang Wu's reaction was extremely fast. When Cao Qinggong's sword Qi was about to pierce him, he leaned back and dodged the fatal blow. At the same time, he kicked out with his fastest reaction.
Cao Qinggong's body leaned to the side. Yang Wu's kick landed heavily on the tent's cloth. In an instant, the tent's cloth was torn apart.
