Chapter 136 Guan Yu's Fury
Chapter 136 Guan Yu's Fury
"Hmph! What I hate most in my life is people with connections. If you have ability, that's fine, but I'm afraid you're just a nobody who sells his wares! That would not only be bad for you, but it would also drag down the army!"
Guan Yu snorted coldly and said with a gloomy face.
Upon hearing his words, Murong Haoxuan's expression also darkened, but he had nothing to say.
After all, he was able to become a deputy general because of his relationship with Ying Chen.
The other party wasn't wrong either.
However, he couldn't swallow this insult. He was determined to prove to them that he wasn't just someone who relied on connections, and that he also had real skills.
"Whether I am capable or not is not for you two to judge, but for the battlefield to decide..."
"Although I was able to come to this battlefield because of my relationship with His Majesty, I did not exercise any special privileges. All the soldiers of the Imperial Guard can testify to this!"
Murong Haoxuan said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Generals, what General Murong said is true..."
"During this time, General Murong ate and lived alongside his soldiers, showing no fear of death on the battlefield, always charging to the front lines..."
The Imperial Guard general who came with Murong Haoxuan also spoke up to explain on his behalf.
Upon hearing the general's words, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu's expressions softened somewhat.
They weren't targeting Murong Haoxuan personally, but rather expressing their concern.
It's an incident where a parachuted-in commander, lacking any military knowledge, mismanages an army, resulting in heavy losses.
This kind of thing has happened before.
The story of an incompetent general causing the death of his entire army was a common occurrence in my past life.
Fortunately, Murong Haoxuan is not that kind of person.
"Alright, I'll believe you for now! But we'll have to see how you perform later. If I find that you're not suitable for the army, I won't hesitate to anger His Majesty and get rid of you!"
Guan Yu nodded, but his expression remained gloomy as he spoke.
"Even without the general saying so, if I have made any mistakes, I will have no face to remain in the army!"
Murong Haoxuan looked directly at Guan Yu and spoke.
Upon seeing this, Guan Yu nodded almost imperceptibly, which could be considered as a temporary acknowledgment of him.
"Where is General Huo now? I want to see him!"
After a moment, Guan Yu spoke again.
"this......"
Murong Haoxuan lowered his head, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Seeing him like this, both Zhao Yun and Guan Yu had a bad feeling.
"Tell me quickly, where is General Huo?"
Guan Yu asked anxiously.
Seeing Guan Yu so agitated, Murong Haoxuan could not hide anything and quickly recounted the whole story.
Moreover, he was also somewhat worried about Huo Qubing.
It just so happens that another 200,000 troops have arrived this time. Hopefully, they can send a large army to meet them.
After listening to Murong Haoxuan's account, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun exchanged a glance.
They could all see the meaning in each other's eyes.
I'm late!
"Why wasn't this important matter reported to your superiors?!"
Guan Yu suppressed his anger and questioned him.
"When General Huo left, he said he wanted to give His Majesty a surprise and forbade me from reporting it to my superiors!"
Murong Haoxuan lowered his head, looking like he had done something wrong.
Huo Qubing was his superior, and he had no choice but to obey him.
Ying Chen was Huo Qubing's superior, so it wouldn't be right for him not to report to his superior.
I'm really caught in the middle.
"Alright, Yun Chang, things have come to this point, there's no use saying anything more..."
"Let's report this matter to His Majesty first!"
"Let's discuss again how to provide support for General Huo!"
Zhao Yun stopped the angry Guan Yu and spoke up.
After being persuaded by Zhao Yun, Guan Yu calmed down and immediately sent someone to relay Huo Qubing's message back.
After further discussion with Zhao Yun, a conclusion was finally reached.
Huo Qubing has been in the territory of the Iron Wolf Dynasty for some time now. Even if he withdraws, the feud with the Iron Wolf Dynasty has already been established.
Why not go all the way and wipe out the Iron Wolf Dynasty? They've already destroyed the Blood Barbarian Dynasty, so they wouldn't mind destroying another one.
On the city wall of Zhenyao City.
Murong Haoxuan watched the 200,000-strong army depart into the distance.
His face was full of helplessness.
He realized that none of the generals of the Qin Dynasty were normal.
I had previously complained that he hadn't reported Huo Qubing's story.
But in the blink of an eye, they led an army of 200,000 men and stormed into the territory of the Iron Wolf Dynasty.
I really don't understand.
However, in this way, there is no need to worry about Huo Qubing's safety.
After all, the Qin Dynasty's 100,000-strong army could overwhelm the Iron Wolf Dynasty's millions of troops.
Now that there are two hundred thousand more, even if the Iron Wolf Dynasty mobilizes its entire forces, it probably won't be a match for them.
After watching for a while, Murong Haoxuan returned to the city to continue his mission.
The patrol task for today is not yet complete.
............
Iron Wolf Dynasty.
Inside a city.
At this time, the city was filled with traces of the spread of war.
And the ground was littered with the corpses of demons.
Huo Qubing stood above the city, gazing indifferently down below.
"General, this is the last city before the Iron Wolf Imperial Capital. After passing this city, the plains are flat and there are no more obstacles. We can go straight to the Iron Wolf Dynasty's capital."
A member of the Imperial Guard appeared before Huo Qubing and said respectfully.
Huo Qubing nodded, then ordered: "All troops, listen up! Set off immediately for the Iron Wolf capital and capture the Iron Wolf Emperor alive!"
"kill!"
Upon hearing Huo Qubing's command, the elite Imperial Guards below shouted in unison and flew out of the city in a flurry, quickly forming ranks and heading towards the Iron Wolf Imperial Capital.
Some time after they left, a large army of demons appeared here.
"Damn it, I'm late again!"
"A demon general said indignantly."
This large army was the very army that the Iron Wolf Emperor had sent to annihilate the Qin army.
However, since they set out on the expedition, they haven't even seen a glimpse of that army; they've been following behind them, eating their dust.
This filled the entire army with anger from top to bottom.
At the same time, I felt physically and mentally exhausted.
"They should be on their way to the capital now. Let's not delay any longer. They shouldn't have been gone long. Perhaps we can intercept them on the way!"
The leading general said with a gloomy expression.
Soon, the army sprang into action again, chasing after the direction in which the Imperial Guards had departed.
