"Senior sister, are you planning to send me to Yangzhou City to offer myself as bait to Marquis Wuwei, Su Chen?"

Chapter 71 Jiangning City, 260,000 Sui Dynasty troops!

Yan Jing'an frowned as she looked at Fan Qinghui.

She hadn't expected Fan Qinghui to have such a plan.

Junior Sister Bi Xiuxin sacrificed herself to the evil king Shi Zhixuan, and finally died heartbroken and exhausted. Yan Jing'an never expected that Fan Qinghui would want her to sacrifice herself to the evil king Su Chen today.

Fan Qinghui shook her head upon hearing Yan Jing'an's words and said...

"You're overthinking it. You're much older than Marquis Wuwei, Su Chen. How could I possibly let you sacrifice yourself to a tiger? Junior sister, have you still not forgotten Demon Master Pang Ban?"

Fan Qinghui also did not expect Yan Jing'an to think this way.

Yan Jing'an was already in her sixties or seventies, although she still had the beautiful appearance of a young woman in her late twenties or early thirties. How could she let Yan Jing'an sacrifice herself to the tiger, Marquis Wuwei, Su Chen?

Upon hearing Fan Qinghui's words, Yan Jing'an

Her face beneath the veil was very complex.

"Pang Ban? Heh, I've forgotten about him completely long ago. More than twenty years have passed, what is there that I can't forget?"

Fan Qinghui pulled Yan Jing'an aside and sighed, saying...

"Sigh, the death of our junior sister Bi Xiuxin back then, although you didn't say it, you always blamed me in your heart."

"Back then, I sent my junior sister Bi Xiuxin to steal Shi Zhixuan's Undying Seal Technique, but do you know that it was actually the Ancestor who gave the order? Do you think I would have harmed my junior sister more than 20 years ago?"

"Ancestor?"

Yan Jing'an was very surprised when she heard Fan Qinghui's words.

She never imagined that what happened back then was actually an order from the ancestor.

No wonder,

No wonder Fan Qinghui insisted that her junior sister do that thing back then; it turns out that it was all the ancestor's order.

The three sisters had a very good relationship back then.

Yan Jing'an has been wondering all these years why Fan Qinghui pushed Bi Xiuxin into the fire pit back then.

Today she understood.

All of this was orchestrated by the old man, Zudini.

Fan Qinghui glanced around and then whispered.

"Well, actually, a few years ago, the Ancestor wanted your disciple to sacrifice himself to tiger Pang Ban, and I had to go to great lengths to persuade him to stop."

"However, junior sister, your disciple Qin Mengyao has gone to Jingnian Chan Sect to cultivate, so you should still be careful."

“I’m worried that the Ancestor never gave up on his decision back then. Why didn’t you let him teach your disciples? Why were they sent to the Jingnian Chanyuan Academy to cultivate? You need to be aware of these things.”

Yan Jing'an's expression changed upon hearing Fan Qinghui's words. She nodded to Fan Qinghui and then pondered the matter of her disciple.

Fan Qinghui told her some startling news today.

Yan Jing'an needs to think about it carefully.

How can she protect her two disciples in the future?

Two days later,

Su Chen's warships also arrived at Jiangning City in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Do not!

It should now be referred to as Jiangning City of the Sui Dynasty.

"See the General!"

On the dock,

More than a dozen generals saluted and greeted Su Chen upon his arrival.

Su Chen frowned as he looked at the generals.

Although he didn't know much about military affairs and official positions...

However, the generals who arrived today were mostly deputy generals; in fact, more than ten out of the twenty or thirty generals in the army had come. It seems that the Sui generals here did not welcome his arrival.

Su Chen, expressionless, ordered, "Get up! Order all troops to assemble outside Jiangning City. Those who fail to arrive within one hour will be punished according to military law, and those who are late will also be punished according to military law."

"Yes, General?"

Shen Luoyan followed behind Su Chen with Jing Ni.

She also noticed that the generals who came to greet Su Chen were all acting strangely.

but,

She didn't remind Su Chen of these things; Shen Luoyan wanted to see how Su Chen would subdue the Sui Dynasty's army of over 200,000.

In the Sui army camp in Jiangning City,

More than a dozen generals from the Xiaoguo Guard, along with about a dozen generals from the Sui Dynasty's border army, were all sitting together in a tent, leisurely drinking tea.

"The Marquis of Wuwei should be arriving soon. Shouldn't we go to greet him?"

"We don't need to pay attention to a mere young marquis. We've read Prime Minister Yuwen's letter, and I believe that Marquis Wuwei will be recalled in a few days."

“That’s right. The Yuwen family is currently at the height of its power in the Sui Dynasty. We are all generals promoted by the Yuwen family. We don’t need to care about Marquis Wuwei Su Chen, the general of the Southern Expedition.”

"Heh, that's right. A marquis in his twenties probably doesn't even know how to lead troops, yet His Majesty the Emperor dares to send him to command the army. His Majesty the Emperor is becoming more and more incompetent."

"Yes, the Sui Dynasty has been getting worse year by year."

"We are all military officers, and we don't need to worry about the affairs of the court. We just need to follow Prime Minister Yuwen's orders."

Knock knock knock knock...

At this time,

The war drums that signaled the mobilization of the army were sounded.

The camp staff said that all the generals heard the sound of war drums, but they were only curious for a moment and then paid no more attention.

Today, Marquis Su Chen of Wuwei has arrived.

This troop assembly is probably just Marquis Wuwei wanting to see his army; they certainly wouldn't go to see that young upstart.

Outside Jiangning City,

Su Chen stood on a high platform.

This time he did not wear the human skin mask.

After disembarking from the warship

Su Chen removed the human skin mask. His face needed to be seen by the more than 200,000 troops here, who would all become his army in the future. Su Chen no longer needed to wear the human skin mask.

More than five thousand black-armored cavalrymen surrounded Su Chen,

Shen Luoyan stood behind Su Chen with Jing Ni. They had no idea what Su Chen was planning to do with the more than 200,000 troops that had been assembled.

Within an hour,

More than 200,000 troops have been assembled.

Two hundred thousand infantrymen!

Sixty thousand cavalry!

The 260,000-strong army stood in neat rows outside Jiangning City, all of them looking at Su Chen on the high platform.

Looking at the 260,000-strong army before him, Su Chen felt a little flustered. This was an army of 260,000, and Su Chen had never encountered such a large army before.

"Reporting to the Marquis, none of the army's commanders have arrived."

Upon hearing the soldier's report, Su Chen

He didn't care at all.

Not coming?

It's better that they didn't come this time.

If all those generals come

(Mama)

Su Chen has no excuse to execute them.

"Su Wu, take a thousand black-armored cavalry to capture those generals who have not yet arrived. Kill any who resist."

"Yes, Lord Marquis!"

Behind the platform,

Upon hearing Su Chen's order, Shen Luoyan

A glint of shrewdness flashed in her eyes.

Shen Luoyan hadn't expected Su Chen to execute those generals as soon as he arrived. Su Chen's decisiveness in killing made her look at him with new respect.
