The next morning, Wu Qi had just woken up and was about to exercise his shin bones when his soldiers rushed in.
"Marshal, Wu Sangui's troops have already arrived outside Yue Yang City.”the soldier said hurriedly.
"Oh?" Wu Qi's eyes darted around and he smiled knowingly." You're quite fast.”
This soldier also knew that Wu Qi had never fought in a war before, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Everyone cared about their own lives." Marshal, quickly make a decision."”
"Don't worry." Wu Qi was not in a hurry. First, he settled the matter of replacing him before going to the city gate.
As soon as they reached the city gate tower, two generals walked forward. They were the Banner Lords of the two banners.
The two of them looked arrogant and did not put Wu Qi in their eyes at all. It was not because of anything else, but because Wu Qi had never fought in a war, while they had all been honed on the battlefield.
Moreover, Wu Qi had brought a woman out. Others might not know, but the two of them knew. They took it for granted that Wu Qi was a person who had a woman on his belt.
Of course, this wasn't the main reason. The main reason was that Wu Qi was a Han Chinese. As a legitimate descendant of the Manchu Eight Banners, he would always feel that he was superior to the Han Chinese.
"Marshal, the sun is already shining on your butt. As the commander-in-chief, you only came now? Didn't he feel that something was wrong?”the Zhenglan Flag Banner Lord said.
The two of them did not hide their contempt along the way. Wu Qi could see it clearly, but he did not do anything to them. After all, the other party was also a Banner Lord. Now that a great enemy was in front of them, Wu Qi would not be so good-tempered if they continued to be like this.
"What's wrong? Are you blaming me?"
"I wouldn't dare! However, the marshal's actions delayed the military aircraft. He should at least give the entire army a lesson, right?”
"Hehe, f * cking substitute. Alright, I'll substitute for you. I'm thinking of strategies against the enemy.”Wu Qi asked.
"Then I wonder what the marshal thought of?”
"Haha, can you absolutely think of a way to retreat the enemy?”Wu Qi said with a smile, but he already knew what to do. He just wanted to see what else this guy wanted.
"In my opinion, it's not that the marshal couldn't think of it, but that he never thought of it. Instead, he was indulging in his lustful behavior and even delaying the opportunity.”The cross-eyed man continued.
"Oh? I'm not worthy. What should I do?" Wu Qi's heart was already on fire.
"This general is not talented, but I believe that I am better than the marshal. Marshal, please give up your authority as the commander and retreat to the second line. Do whatever you want. When you get Wu Sangui's head, this general will also plead for you to the emperor and you will also have a credit.”The cross-eyed man had an imposing aura.
On the other side, Scarface also cupped his hands and said,"Marshal, please. This is a place for war. It's not suitable for a good-for-nothing to stay here.”
Shua!
The sharp blade left his body, and blood splattered three feet.
Scarface's neck spurted blood, and his body quickly fell to the ground.
"Hehe, you think you can say that?”
"Ah!" The cross-eyed man was frightened." You actually dared to kill Marshal Zheng. He is the Banner Lord of the Bordered Blue Banner.”
"Humph! What was there to be afraid of? He used the lowly to blame the noble, disobeying orders on the battlefield! According to military law, he should be beheaded! You'd better behave yourself, or you'll end up like him!”Wu Qi was not afraid at all. This prestige had to be established. He could only blame these two idiots for being too stupid.
"Rebel! How dare you kill the descendants of the Eight Banners? I will tear you into pieces today.”
As he spoke, he gave an order to the troops of the Blue Flag." Soldiers, this lowly Han dared to kill the commander of the Eight Banners. Capture him!”
Instantly, more than 100,000 sharp blades were aimed at Wu Qi.
" Let's see who dares!" Wu Qi shouted! His voice spread out with his internal strength.
"I'm a prince personally conferred by the emperor. If you want to bear the crime of rebellion, just try touching me?”
As soon as Wu Qi said this, the soldiers died. Their cross-eyed eyes were still shouting, but it was to no avail.
Shua!
It was another sword to the throat! He could no longer call out.
"I originally gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it. Alright, I'll use your heads to achieve my achievements!”
As Wu Qi spoke, he casually kicked him again and immediately shouted,"Banner Lords, you disobeyed orders on the battlefield and were killed on the spot. If you don't want to be killed and have the reputation of a traitor, listen to my command!”
Immediately, everyone present was also intimidated by Wu Qi's decisive means of killing. In addition, they did not want to bear the reputation of a rebel, so they could only tacitly obey the command.
" Where is the Banner Lord's deputy general?!"
"I'm here!" As he stared, two deputies walked forward.
"This marshal will now appoint the two of you as acting Banner Lords. Work hard and defeat Wu Sangui. This marshal will ask the emperor to make you two official!”
"Thank you, Marshal!" These two people were the first to submit. This was just like the old saying, people die for wealth, birds die for food. Power and wealth were common in most cases.
"Good!" Wu Qi finally felt a little better." I'll tell you guys my plan now…"
Opposite the city gate.
Amidst the vast rebel army, the bearded Oboi was looking at the city gate with an ancient telescope.
He knew about the current situation in the city. He also knew the Banner Lords of the True Blue and Blue Banners, and he was looking forward to seeing them.
In the next moment, he really saw it. However, what he saw were not living people, but two hanging corpses.
"Eh? What was going on? Why were the two Banner Lords hanging on the city gate tower?”Wu Sangui was puzzled.
When Wu Ying Xiong heard this, he also took the binoculars and looked over. "Father, could it be that there's an internal strife?"”
"Don't jump to conclusions." Wu Sangui was still a very cautious person. He continued to look through the binoculars. When he looked again, Wu Qi's marshal flag had also been cut down, and he quickly raised the white flag.
"What's going on? In terms of internal strife, it should be because the two Banner Lords were not on good terms with the new commander. Since they were dead, why was the commander's flag cut down as well? Could it be that he was dead too?”Wu Sangui was puzzled.
However, very soon, the city gates of Yue Yang opened. A lone rider walked out from inside and headed straight for Wu Sangui.
Seeing the arrival, the rebel soldiers drew their bows and readied their arrows, ready to attack.
"Don't worry, it's just one person.”Wu Sangui waved his hand.
Soon, this person arrived in front of the rebel army. He immediately dismounted and cupped his hands." We are willing to surrender to King Ping Xi. Please enter the city!"”
"Hehe, invite me into the city? Are you trying to kill us in the outer city?" Wu Sangui was not stupid.
"Your Highness, the Commander-in-chief of our army was assassinated last night. The two Banner Lords fought for the right of command and in the end, both sides fought to the death. Now, the army is leaderless and unable to resist Your Highness's army.”
"Oh? The commander-in-chief was assassinated?" Wu Sangui muttered to himself. The assassin was the one he had requested from the Divine Dragon Cult Master. He was a top-notch master and had a high chance of success. However, he did not return last night, so he assumed that the assassin had failed.
Now that he heard what the other party said, and that the person hanging on the city gate was indeed the Banner Lord of the two banners, Wu Sangui somewhat believed him, but he was still very cautious.
"Left Army, advance and occupy Yue Yang!"
