Monarch of Evernight: Channel 139

bsp;However, several green bamboos suddenly grew between the two of them, with branches and leaves spreading horizontally, and each bamboo leaf was as sharp as a blade. The short-bearded man who rushed towards Qianye was startled for a moment, and his strong instinct made him stop and retreat, avoiding this clump of green bamboo that looked extremely dangerous. Qianye saw through that this was just an illusion and was not driven by instinct. However, it was obvious that Song Zining had created this clump of bamboo. Now that he had arrived, Qianye restrained his anger and stopped taking action.

Song Zining hurried over. As soon as he arrived, the short-bearded man shouted solemnly: "Seventh Young Master, why do you want to stop me from taking down this lawless maniac?"

Song Zining was obviously displeased, but he still restrained himself and said, "General Yan may have misjudged the person. This is the leader of Dark Fire, how can he be a lawless maniac?"

"Who is the leader of Dark Fire? I, Yan Ding, only recognize you, the Seventh Young Master, here."

Song Zining did not expect that Yan Ding would not give him any face at all. No matter how well-mannered he was, his expression changed a little. However, he still maintained a smile with the restraint of a disciple of aristocratic family, and explained: "This is the leader of Dark Fire, Master Qianye. I also do some chores under him."

The name Qianye is almost unknown to everyone in the imperial military. The Unfallen City defeated the witch in one battle, and then broke into the military stronghold angrily, kidnapped Nighteye from the sailor Ritikaze, and escaped from the God General. For a while, many people believed that Qianye was not inferior to Zhao Jundu in terms of talent and current combat power.

When Song Zining announced Qianye's name, he hoped to shock Yan Ding, at least so that he would not act recklessly.

However, Yan Ding sneered and said without giving any face, "Qianye? Who is Qianye? I have never heard of this name."

At this point, Song Zining could no longer bear it, his face turned cold, and he said: "General Yan, there is no point in talking like this. After all, this dark fire belongs to Qianye. I have no intention of giving up some territory for you to move in. Please come back to me.”

Yan Ding was startled, as if he did not expect Song Zining to speak like this, and said: "Qi Shao is really sharp."

Song Zining put away his folding fan, laughed dryly, and said: "At any rate, I have been in the army, and I have seen a lot of things in the world with King Qingyang." The implication is that I have also been in the army. Deep-rooted and not to be trifled with.

Yan Ding understood the meaning, but did not buy it, saying: "It's a pity that King Qingyang is no longer in the army."

Song Zining said calmly: "Although he has left, if he says something, who in the army dares not to listen?"

Yan Ding's face looked a little ugly. Song Zining was right. Although the imperial military was powerful, in major battles, it still needed the support of the aristocratic families and the king. Just like the Battle of Fulu, if Zhang Boqian and King Zhiji were not in charge, and the major families divided the war zones, the military alone would never be able to launch a battle of this scale.

Most of the top powerhouses in the empire are located in the imperial family and aristocratic families. The only one who truly belongs to the military force is the King of Immortality. Strictly speaking, the Immortal King is not entirely a member of the military department, at most he can only be considered half.

For a long time, a group of young forces in the military have hated this situation and have gradually become the backbone of the imperial party.

Yan Ding sneered and said: "Qi Shao is right, King Qingyang is unparalleled in battle, and others naturally dare not disobey him. However, it seems that the relationship between His Highness and the Song clan is not harmonious. Qi Shao counts himself as His Highness's man, it seems. A bit far-fetched, right?”

Song Zining smiled faintly and said: "What happened to the Song Clan has nothing to do with me. But if I want to give you a big deal, if I am willing to serve, I'm afraid not many people in the empire will be willing to accept it."

Yan Ding was speechless for a moment. Song Zining had already shown his unparalleled talent in military strategy, and his personal cultivation had not fallen behind. Although he was not as sharp as Zhao Jundu, he was still recognized as a person who could be promoted to the rank of a **** general. Anyone would recruit such a person at all costs.

Thinking of this, Yan Ding's face calmed down a little, and he said: "I naturally know that Qi Shao is a great talent. But Qi Shao is such a person, why do you have to hang out with Qianye? With all due respect, Qi Shao Doing so will probably destroy your future.”

Qianye had been silent at the side. Now when he heard Yan Ding mention his name, Fang said: "Now that you know who I am, you dared to attack me just now. Is it because you think you have lived too long, or are you Do you think you can survive three minutes in my hands?"

Yan Ding was immediately furious and shouted: "How dare a **** vampire speak such arrogant words! If Lu Shuai hadn't been merciful back then, how could you have escaped from the Unfallen City? You were lucky enough not to die, but you still dared to come out and be rampant , Do you really think that if you hide in a neutral place, the empire can’t do anything to you?”

Speaking of this, Yan Ding remembered something, sneered and said: "That vampire **** was hit by General Li's Chaos Millstone, and she will become a **** even if she doesn't die. What's the use of rescuing her? She would have been long gone by now. Has it turned into a corpse?"

Qianye's face gradually darkened, but before he could get angry, Song Zining shouted angrily: "Shut up!"

Yan Ding turned around and said, "What advice does Qi Shao have?"

Song Zining took a deep breath and said, "You are really not afraid of death!"

Yan Ding said: "I am a general of the empire. Seeing as he is like this, he still wants to return to the empire, right? Does he dare to kill me? Isn't he afraid of losing his way back?"

Qianye patted Song Zining on the shoulder and said, "Are you still trying to persuade me to come back now?"

Song Zining's face was livid, he pointed at Yan Ding's nose and cursed: "If you ruin this important matter for me, I will make you miserable! The military department didn't send you here to disrupt the situation! If you do it again, If so, get out of here!”

Yan Ding turned around and said to the soldiers gathered behind him: "Did everyone hear this? They don't welcome us now, let's go!"

Those soldiers were all arrogant people, and they immediately applauded. At this moment, many dark fire mercenaries gathered behind Qianye and Song Zining, and they all made loud noises. Many of them even started to scold Yan Ding's people directly.

Song Zining tapped the palm of his hand with a folding fan and said: "You should all know what my identity is. If you want to leave, you can leave the battleship. In addition, I have to say something unpleasant. You can get out of here, but you may not get out. We can win the city. Even if we can get out of Nanqing, none of you will be able to return to the empire."

Yan Ding was so angry that his whole body was trembling, and he said: "Young Master Qi, I am a general of the empire. No matter how smart you are, you can't bear the crime of openly harming the general of the empire, right?"

Song Zining said: "Delaying a war opportunity is a serious crime. If such a big thing is delayed, let alone you Yan Ding can't afford it, even if Lu Junyi is here, I don't think he can afford it. These battleships It belongs to the empire, not to you."

Yan Ding was still furious, but the soldiers behind him were a little shaken. Song Zining saw this and said: "Although I am here, the empire has not given up. Now there are people in the palace behind me. Even if I do something, it won't necessarily be unfair. Haha, at least, at least The man behind me is not comparable to some outdated marshal."

Yan Ding stopped and said, "What does Qi Shao mean?"

Song Zining did not hide anything, and said: "A former marshal like Lu Junyi who has just brushed aside a bit of a **** general has exhausted his potential long ago and has no chance of making any further progress. If the superiors hadn't been thinking about his early achievements, he would still have How can he survive until now? Haha, who did he think he could hide what he did?"

Yan Ding's face turned green and white, but he didn't know how to answer these words. The officers and soldiers behind him also looked at each other, and their momentum had already weakened by seven to eight points. Who was Song Zining? Naturally, he would not talk nonsense on such matters. From what he said, it seemed that Lu Junyi had done something inappropriate, but the emperor did not pursue him because of his past achievements. The influence of such a person, whether in politics or the military, cannot be compared with that of the top ten marshals currently in office.

Song Zining pointed at Qianye and said: "During the Battle of the Unfallen City, Commander Lu failed to keep Qianye. Qianye is here now. You can give Commander Lu a message. If he wants to, he can How about coming here to fight Qianye again and deciding whether to live or die?"

Yan Dingxian didn’t believe it and asked, “Does the Seventh Young Master think that he can fight with Commander Lu?”

Song Zining did not answer, but said to Qianye: "Qianye, what do you think?"

Qianye's thoughts returned to that night. After a moment, he sighed softly and said: "The matter is over, and there is no point in killing him."

Yan Ding's expression changed, but he still didn't believe it in the end, and just said: "Since the Seventh Young Master said this, I will naturally cooperate in this battle."

After saying that, he turned around and entered the courtyard, shouting: "You are all looking at the excitement, come in! The sentry has also been withdrawn, it is embarrassing to leave it alone."

Song Zining glanced at Yan Ding's back, waved the Dark Fire mercenaries to disperse, and pulled Qianye towards the Dark Fire headquarters. After entering Song Zining's office, Qianye asked: "Where did these people come from?"

Song Zining said: "You must also be able to tell that they are all members of the imperial military. Yan Ding is the commander of the imperial fleet squadron, which is the main fleet. He led the advance fleet to arrive first this time and prepared Seize the passage. I let them stationed in Dark Fire to hide their whereabouts. Of course, this can only be concealed from the Yongye side, but not from the local snakes in the Neutral Land."

"It's not like they are hiding their whereabouts." Qianye said.

"Sooner or later there will be a fight, and it doesn't matter whether you can hide or not. People from various aristocratic families in the empire have already arrived one after another, faster than the military. What they really want to hide is what they lead Those battleships that came."

"You are so anxious to call me over, are you about to start a fight?"

"The approximate direction of the passage has been determined, and we are just waiting for the final detailed inspection. But this location is very tricky." Song Zining opened the map, pointed at it, and said: "Based on my inference, the entrance to this passage is probably It’s here!”

Qianye glanced around and saw that where Song Zining was pointing was Tingchao City.

Qianye and Tingchao City have dealt with each other more than once. There are many masters in the city and the strongest ones are like rain. The power of the city lord was even more earth-shattering. If it hadn't been for good luck that night, Qianye and Ji Tianqing might have fallen on a neutral ground.

The entrance to this passage is actually in Tingchao City. No wonder Song Zining finds it difficult.
