The Era of Generals

Old Hua was silent and dejected.

Regarding Chen Ze’s speculation, he did not deny or admit it. He just grabbed the flask on the table and poured the spirits into his mouth one by one.

Before a moment, the eye sockets were already red.

But Chen Ze said again: "And I guess, those family members who were rescued by you are in Anluo Province, even not far from Bo'an City, or within Bo'an City."

"This is the purpose of your coming to Boan City."

"On the one hand, you can take care of them nearby. On the other hand, if something similar happens again, you, as the chief officer of the military plane in Bo'an City, can directly mobilize troops."

"As for Meng Yang and the others, you know that these profound armor soldiers are impulsive and irritable. If they know that someone is threatening with their brother's family, they will definitely jump out and desperately."

"You don't want this kind of tragedy to happen, so I would rather Mengyang and the others blame you and hate you than tell them the truth, and let them stay in the Boan Barracks for five years."

At the end he paused, watching Hualao drink another swig of strong alcohol, and then asked, "I wonder if I guessed it right?"

"What do you want to say?"

Mr. Hua was noncommittal and wiped the corners of his mouth at will, but his emotions calmed down.

When Chen Ze mentioned this incident suddenly, he was not aimlessly, deliberately trying to expose the scars of the old man.

He thought about it, habitually pointed his nose with his finger, and sorted out his thoughts by the way. Then he said: "There has always been a thousand days to be a thief. How can there be a thousand days to guard against thieves?"

"Mr. Hua, the more nervous these people are, the more they will become a weakness used by the enemy, just in case..."

"Nothing in case!"

At this point, Mr. Hua categorically said: "What else do I have to worry about by the enemy now?"

"Or, what enemy do I have?"

"Nothing?"

Chen Ze shook his head and said, "Maybe you don't have anymore, but what about your disciples?"

Hearing this, Hua Lao frowned slightly.

Having been rooted in the Qingyang Empire for so many years, of course he is not only the five thousand brothers who have turned into loess, in fact, the generals he carried with one hand are all over the Qingyang Empire.

The fat shopkeeper who has been following him is the same, Mr. Jing, the chief officer of the military plane in West Cloud City, and there are many more people who hold important positions throughout the empire.

These people were either recruited by Hua Lao in the early days and became his protégés, and later they accumulated their military exploits and dismissed the protégés and became leaders of the party, or they were deeply favored by Hua Lao and were willing to be loyal to his generals.

If these people are branches and leaves, then Hua Lao is the sturdy main tree trunk, with branches and leaves scattered, rooting and sprouting in the soil of the Qingyang Empire.

The Qingyang Empire's three wise and two generals also have their own factions. The five forces united to cover almost 70% of the Qingyang Empire's generals. They are the five forces that consolidate the Qingyang Empire. Tianjuzhu.

At the same time, they are five sharp swords that restrict each other.

Everyone wants their big tree to be stronger. For this, they fought openly and secretly, and for this reason, it was no secret to fight in private.

At that time, the old Hua was defeated for a while, and as a result, the other four took the opportunity to take away most of his power, but there were still some who were loyal to him.

For example, Mr. Jing, as well as the loyal generals who had been mentioned implicitly by Mr. Jing, have been silently waiting for the opportunity to help Hua Lao recover Heshan.

This force is also not weak, at least it is an extremely tenacious seed of vitality, which may break through the ground at any time.

Will those who have benefited tremendously in this matter give Hua Lao a chance to make a comeback?

Even though Mr. Hua has been slumped to this point, as long as his people are still alive, it is a threat. In the words of Chen Ze's previous life, it is a time bomb.

When it will explode, no one knows, but what they know is that once it explodes, it will be earth-shattering!

So, is there no enemy?

How could the wisdom of Hua Lao not understand this truth, but he chose another solution.

That is to give in.

Use his day-to-day depression to keep the generals who are loyal to him safe, and at the same time, he is also closely guarding his **** in Bo'an City, which is his weakness, so that no one can take advantage of it.

But as Chen Ze said, only a thousand days can be a thief, how can a thousand days be a thief?

No one can guarantee that he will not make a mistake, and Hua Lao does the same, so if there is an oversight, this weakness may be magnified at any time and become the fatal point of eradicating him!

So as far as Hua Lao is concerned, there are also time bombs, and there are not one, but four!

"Now is an opportunity!"

Seeing that Mr. Hua was still hesitant, Chen Ze categorically said: "An opportunity to turn passiveness into initiative!"

"initiative?"

Old Hua frowned, but his eyes fell on the sand table, "Which city do you think is my chance?"

He did not object, on the contrary, he seemed to agree with Chen Ze's words.

Chen Ze smiled slightly. As expected, the old man he thought of had already thought about it. This question sounded more like a test for him.

So confidently said: "West Cloud City!"

"West Cloud City?"

The sand table is not that big, it can show the entire Anluo province. After hearing this, Hua Lao placed his eyes on the map hanging on the wall subconsciously.

"There is a high probability that Zheng Yuanlong will not return to West Cloud City!"

Chen Ze continued.

In the previous fierce battle with Zhang Chengwang's troops, Zheng Yuanlong suffered serious injuries, but fortunately it did not hurt the root cause. After these days of conditioning, he has recovered a lot.

"Because Huang Zongbing?"

Mr. Hua knew what Chen Ze meant, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard the words: "Yes, Zheng Yuanyun has worked hard, even if the enemy is currently taking the opportunity to solve Huang Zongbing, waiting for Zheng Yuanlong's injury to stabilize, he can go to Zhangning. The city has taken over as the lord of the city!"

At the beginning, Zheng Yuanyun took advantage of the information brought back by Chen Ze and others~www.wuxiamtl.com~ on the charge of negligence in Zhangning city and charged the enemy with a chance to take advantage of Huang Zongbing. In this case, the two men It's all on the spot.

In fact, everyone present at the time understood that even if Huang Zongbing was at fault, Zheng Yuanyun was not taking advantage of the problem and seizing the opportunity to seize the power of Huang Zongbing, thus giving his own brother Zheng Yuanlong a chance.

Although both Zhangning City and West Cloud City are both city owners, the difference between them is huge.

Xiyun City is just a small city on the border of Anluo Province. It is in a barren area and has limited development potential. Even the number of troops stationed there is only 100,000, and it is not even comparable to the towns attached to some large cities.

But what about Zhangning City?

Although it is located to the east of the relatively barren Anluo province, it is one of the six major granary cities, and its abundance of oil and water cannot match the ten Xiyun cities.

Arranging his younger brother to serve in Zhangshou City seemed to be just a flat balance, but the huge benefits in it were obvious to anyone who saw it.

After this battle, how could Zheng Yuanlong go back to Xiyun City and give up Zhangning City?
