Astral Apostle Chapter 260: Knowledge and turn your face

  Chapter 261 Knowing and Turning Out

  The officers and soldiers marched along the path in silence.

  Huang Ping walked in the front, with a serious face, thinking secretly:

   "Now I have dug up the mouth of Dingbo, causing a flood. The flood is sweeping and flooding the Huyang boundary. The longer the time, the more extensive the disaster, digging the foundation of the bandits. I don't know if I can play a meritorious service after entering the imperial court."

  He knew that this move would attract criticism from the court, but as a general, he only cared about how to benefit the battle situation and how to win.

  In Huang Ping's opinion, it is better to inflict heavy damage on the enemy than to return without success after spending a lot of manpower and material resources, which would be even more dissatisfied by the emperor.

  "The deal is done now, as long as these soldiers are told not to speak out when they return to the army, they should be fine."

  Huang Ping looked back at the soldiers and shook his head silently.

  Secrecy is aimed at external eyeliners, mainly in order not to be interrupted before completing the task.

  Now that the goal has been achieved, even if the thieves know about it, it will be difficult to fill the gap, so he doesn't care too much about leaking it or not. As for silencing the soldiers under his command, it is easy to cause mutiny, and it is not appropriate to do so.

  "It's just a pity that this opportunity to lead the army... The current emperor is stingy and unwilling to invest in military expenses. He can finally lead troops to fight. If it can be delayed for a year or two, he can earn a lot of money, but now he has to End the war early..."

  Huang Ping secretly regretted it.

  However, at this moment, a burly figure suddenly appeared in front of him, standing in the middle of the road, blocking the way, his features were extremely distinctive.

  "Chen thief?!"

  Huang Ping's pupils shrank suddenly, his face suddenly changed, and he quickly reined in his horse.

  Many officers and soldiers also turned pale with fright, gripping their weapons tightly, various rumors of Chen Feng flashed through their minds, and their bodies couldn't help trembling.

   "This way is dead."

  Zhou Jing stood with arms folded, and spoke in a cold voice.

  He was so strong that he copied directly to the front of this team of officers and soldiers, and appeared to block the way.

  Zhou Jing stared closely at the officers and soldiers, and was slightly taken aback when he saw Huang Ping's appearance clearly.

  Why did this senior general suddenly appear nearby, so sneaky? I'm afraid there is no conspiracy.

   While he was thinking, Huang Ping did not hesitate, and immediately drew his sword and shouted:

  "Retreat!"

  The officers and soldiers heard the commotion and hurriedly turned to flee.

  But at this moment, many figures appeared from the rear, but it was the soldiers from Longwangzhai who rushed up and blocked the way back.

  Just as the officers and soldiers were in a dilemma, a piercing scream suddenly sounded.

   Whoosh!

  I saw Zhou Jing throwing a big gun, which penetrated the bodies of officers and soldiers along the way, and went straight into the formation, scaring the officers and soldiers around them to the ground.

  "Throw down the weapon, and those who surrender will not be killed."

   Zhou Jing shouted violently, but it sounded like the sound of nature to the ears of many officers and soldiers.

  There was almost no entanglement. A group of officers and soldiers decisively threw away their weapons and surrendered, completely ignoring Huang Ping's orders, even some of the supervisory teams did the same.

  It is because Chen Feng has left a deep impression on the officers and soldiers during this period. He has a fierce reputation, and the officers and soldiers present are also human beings. Fight as soon as you say it, no one in the room thinks that they can match with people like them.

   Violation of military law is death, but resistance is even worse, so it would be better to vote for the chance of life!

  Only using his reputation as a deterrent, the officers and soldiers were directly let go of Huang Ping's control. It can be seen that Zhou Jing's actions during this period have been effective, and the officers and soldiers basically have no fighting spirit when facing him.

   "Drive! Go!"

  Seeing this, Huang Ping knew that there was nothing he could do, but he didn't want to sit still and run away.

  Zhou Jing didn't intend to let him go, his figure flashed, overtook the galloping horse, and chased after him in a few moments.

  With a simple cling to the mountain, Huang Ping and his horse were sent flying.

  Bang!

  Huang Ping fell from his horse, his legs were crushed by the fallen horse, and he let out a cry of pain.

  "It's over, it's over..."

  Huang Ping was sweating profusely from the pain, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

  Dig the river and burst the embankment to flood Huyang by himself, now that he falls into the hands of the enemy, wouldn't he be tortured?

   must not fall into the hands of bandits!

   He gritted his teeth and turned his sword, wanting to kill himself.

  However, this move failed as expected. As soon as the saber was raised, it was kicked out by Zhou Jing at will.

  "Want to cut your neck? The reaction is so intense, there must be something tricky."

  Zhou Jing frowned, pushed the horse away, pulled Huang Ping out, and used his hands to dissect the opponent's limbs and joints.

  This is one of the generals appointed by the imperial court. He is still a nobleman, and his value is not low. It is not worthwhile to let him die so easily.

  "You lead troops around, what are your plans?"

  Zhou Jingti asked Huang Ping in a deep voice.

  Huang Ping's face was pale and he remained silent.

  "You don't answer, some people answer."

  Zhou Jing didn't take it seriously, and asked the boys who caught up to control the surrendering officers and soldiers for interrogation.

   It didn't take long for everyone to ask for information from the officers and soldiers, and they were furious.

  "Village Master! This group of officers and soldiers sneaked to Dingbokou and demolished the embankment there!"

  “These **** officers and soldiers want to cause a flood and flood Huyang!”

  "The imperial court dared not fight with us in an upright manner, but used such a vicious and insidious strategy, it should be damned!"

  Many children kept shouting and cursing.

  Most of them are locals from Huyang. When they heard that the officers and soldiers were going to harm their hometown, they were all furious.

  Zhou Jing's face darkened, and he slapped Huang Ping with his backhand, and shouted:

  "Well, it seems that we still overestimated the lower limit of you gentlemen. It seems that we are too kind if we don't ransack your family and exterminate your blood in the future."

  Huang Ping drooped his head, his mouth and nose were bleeding, he was slapped dizzy, and had no words to refute.

  Zhou Jing threw him directly into the hands of his soldiers, and said in a deep voice, "Take care of this guy and bring him back to the village. Don't let him die on the way, that would be too cheap for this bastard."

  There is no relevant news from Bill, it seems that it is a secret operation in private.

  The government's actions like this will inevitably cause an uproar in the world. They have captured a lot of witnesses in their hands, which happens to be made public, completely destroying the legitimacy of the imperial court's rule in Huyang.

  But before that, the flood caused by the officers and soldiers must be resolved first.

  If the floods are allowed to flood, not only will the people be drowned, but also the farmland will be submerged, and agricultural production will be destroyed. Cottage is not acceptable.

  Zhou Jing quickly divided the troops into two groups, one group escorted Huang Ping and his soldiers back to the village, and informed them of the situation for help.

  The other group followed him and went straight to Dingbokou.

  ……

  When Zhou Jing decided to turn around and hurry, the flood had spread to many areas and was still expanding.

   Moreover, the weather was not good. It rained heavily for several days, causing the river to overflow and the flood to become more serious.

  As the flood spread, the news of the outbreak of the flood quickly spread across the border of Huyang, causing the local people to be shocked and panicked, and they didn't even pay attention to the war.

  The government army also discovered the flooding situation and quickly sent it back to the main camp.

  Inside the big tent of the Chinese Army.

  "Hahaha, God help me too!"

  "Our army is in a stalemate with the bandits, but at this juncture, a flood broke out, which will definitely disrupt the bandits' positions. It really is God's blessing for my Daxia orthodoxy, and these rebels will not be helped!"

  "This is called self-destruction for many unrighteous actions!"

   All the officers and soldiers were beaming with joy.

  They thought the flood was a natural disaster, and they all felt gloated, and lamented that the imperial court had luck to help them.

  "The commander-in-chief has already said that the traitor Chen will be punished by God for his rebellion!"

  Ma Zhen's face remained unchanged, and he spoke solemnly.

  He has not disclosed his plan for the time being, and intends to wait for the dust to settle before taking credit for it, so the soldiers don't know that it was the commander's plan to cause the flood.

  However, although it is kept secret for the time being, Ma Zhen is still somewhat complacent.

  But at this moment, Lingfengzi, who was listening in the tent, suddenly got up and walked to the center.

  Under everyone's suspicious eyes, he spoke slowly:

  "General Ma, I have something to tell you."

  "Please speak real people."

   Ma Zhen frowned, resisting boredom to respond.

  Lingfengzi flicked his whisk, and said slowly: "The flood has caused endless disasters and poisoned the common people. The poor Taoist has achieved success in cultivation and cannot ignore it. Therefore, the poor Taoist must go to deal with the flood and save the people as much as possible. I hope General Ma understands."

  After the voice fell, the expressions of all the soldiers became subtle.

  Ma Zhen's face darkened instantly, and he said coldly:

  "My lord, do you know what kind of behavior this is? Floods can severely damage the bandits, but you are going to deal with the floods and help the bandits survive this catastrophe. If it is reported back to Beijing, what will the Holy One think about it?"

  Lingfengzi's tone remained unchanged: "Behave poorly and have a clear conscience. I will go no matter whether General Ma agrees or not."

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to walk out of the tent.

  "Lingfengzi! Don't be ignorant!"

  Ma Zhen slapped the table, he couldn't get used to Lingfengzi's behavior of paddling, so he couldn't bear it and shouted:

  "You have repeatedly disobeyed the commander's order and missed the opportunity of the war. That's all. Now you have to help the bandits. Are you an enemy or a friend? Don't think that you can act recklessly because the Holy One favors you. Today you If you dare to walk out of the camp and ruin my battle situation, I will definitely join you, and the failure of this battle is all your fault!"

  Lingfengzi ignored him, walked out of the Chinese army's big tent, took off directly in the wind, and flew away quickly.

   All the officers and men turned their gazes away to look at the furious Ma Zhen, and they were all silent.

  They didn't expect ~IndoMTL.com~ their coach and Yufeng Zhenren would turn their faces in public.

   Ma Zhen’s chest heaved, and it took a while to suppress his anger, and said in a deep voice:

  "You have all seen what Lingfengzi did. If the flood is contained, Chen Thief will be able to recuperate. If he endangers the country again in the future, it all stems from what Lingfengzi did today. I have done my best, but If he doesn't listen to the advice, the commander-in-chief can't stop him, so there's nothing he can do."

   All the officers and men hesitated, knowing that they were asked to testify.

  "Don't worry, Commander, we have all seen it with our own eyes. That Lingfengzi vainly cared about the country and the country and helped a group of rebels. Even if he speaks out, it is also an act of disloyalty and injustice, without a king and without a father!" /

  Yu Wenyan immediately expressed his opinion.

  Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, so they had no choice but to express their opinions together.

  Ma Zhen nodded, no longer entangled with this point, and said coldly:

  "That's good, so that the courtiers don't impeach me and lead the troops. Since Lingfengzi helps the rebels, he doesn't have to worry about life or death... Announce the whole army and withdraw the camp!"

   "The general will obey."

  Everyone's face turned serious, and they responded one after another.
