Frontier Hero: From Receiving a Convicted Woman to Becoming an Emperor for All Time

Wang Chongyi stood frozen in place, his fists clenched tightly.

But she didn't dare utter a single word of obstruction, feeling that the hatred and resentment in her heart were about to explode.

Yesterday, 120 of his elite personnel were poached, which is like losing an arm.

Shen Chuxiao's return today clearly indicates his intention to completely undermine his foundation.

On the drill ground, the remaining soldiers of the Western Camp stood in formation, all looking flustered.

Shen Chuxiao stood at the front of the formation, his gaze sweeping across the entire area, his voice clear and bright: "Yesterday's selection of 120 people was only the first round of selection. Today, another 100 will be selected; the list is here."

He raised his hand and handed over a new list, and the guards beside him immediately stepped forward and loudly read out the names.

"Zhang San, Li Si, Sun Dayong..."

One name after another was mentioned, and none of them were elderly, weak, or idle.

This time, Shen Chuxiao specifically targeted Wang Chongyi's subordinate leaders in his camp. With each name called, a senior member of the Western Camp stepped forward from the ranks.

these people,

This was Wang Chongyi's last remaining possessions after years of settling down in Xiying.

Wang Chongyi's eyes turned bloodshot, and his blood surged.

If these people are poached, he, the Vice Commander of the Western Camp, will be nothing more than an empty shell, without any military power, and will be at the mercy of others in the future.

"That's enough!"

Wang Chongyi roared angrily.

He took a sudden step forward, and the sword at his waist was drawn abruptly, its cold light pointing directly at Shen Chuxiao!

"Shen Chuxiao! You are using the guise of expansion to seize power! You are nibbling away at the strength of my Western Camp and deliberately dismantling the border garrison. Your intentions are sinister!"

The moment he drew his knife, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

The soldiers of the Western Camp tensed instantly, but could only grit their teeth and grip their weapons tightly, forming a stalemate.

The two armies faced each other, swords drawn.

Tie Niu instantly drew his sword and stepped forward, blocking Shen Chuxiao's path: "Wang Chongyi! You really dare to draw your sword in public?!"

Shen Chuxiao raised his hand and pressed down on Tie Niu, his expression calm and showing no sign of panic.

He looked at the distraught and frantic Wang Chongyi and simply said, "General Wang, drawing your sword in public and confronting your colleague—do you know what crime that is?"

"My crime?"

Wang Chongyi angrily retorted, "You're the one who disrupted border discipline, divided the garrison, and monopolized morale! Shen Chuxiao, you've abused your power by favoring the general and eliminating dissidents. Today, I will rid Ling Shuang Pass of this scourge!"

After these words were spoken,

His personal guards behind him were completely surrounded and forced to approach him with their swords drawn.

A cold glint flashed in Shen Chuxiao's eyes.

He slowly raised his hand and took out the letter again:

"You want to condemn me? Fine, today I will condemn you in front of the entire army!"

He then read the contents of the letter aloud to everyone.

All the soldiers' pupils constricted, and they looked at Wang Chongyi in disbelief.

The most taboo thing in the military is false accusation and framing.

Driven by personal grudges, Wang Chongyi secretly wrote a letter to Shuofang Dao, fabricating charges to frame his own comrade!

Shen Chuxiao's gaze was like a knife, and his voice grew increasingly cold:

"You know perfectly well that my troop deployment is a general's order, in accordance with regulations and rules, yet you are still wary and fearful of losing your authority."

"Since you dare not confront General Lu directly, you are attempting to interfere in border military affairs by using external forces!"

"Today you dare to don armor, gather troops, and obstruct military orders, even drawing your sword in public! Wang Chongyi, tell me, who is causing chaos on the border? Who is plotting something sinister?"

Every word was like a heavy hammer blow, striking Wang Chongyi's heart.

Wang Chongyi trembled all over and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The morale of the soldiers in the western camp behind them collapsed instantly, and they retreated one after another.

If you don't stop now, you'll be complicit in their evil ways!

"You forged all of these!" Wang Chongyi almost roared.

Just then, a steady footstep sound came from outside the camp.

An aged yet authoritative voice suddenly cut into the battlefield: "I have seen these two letters; they do indeed bear General Wang's seal and are not forgeries."

Everyone turned their heads at the sound.

General Liu Wenzhao, the guerrilla commander of the Northern Gate, actually led his troops over personally.

He had been observing and trying to stay out of it. But when he saw Wang Chongyi dare to draw his knife in public, he knew that the man was beyond redemption and that if he didn't act, he would be an accomplice. So he immediately led his men over.

Shen Chuxiao glanced at Liu Wenzhao in surprise.

These old-timers are quite interesting.

Tie Niu asked in confusion, "Boss, when did he read the letter?"

Shen Chuxiao sneered, "What's he looking at? He's just here to express his opinion and save his life."

He knew perfectly well that this old fox had the keenest sense of smell. Seeing that Wang Chongyi's power was waning, he immediately jumped out to clear his name and show his loyalty.

Shen Chuxiao gave Liu Wenzhao a cold look.

He had originally planned to wait for Wang Chongyi to fall before dealing with Liu Wenzhao, but now that Liu had voluntarily submitted, he was left without a legitimate reason to act.

With Liu Wenzhao's words, Wang Chongyi's last hope was completely crushed.

His only possible ally publicly betrayed him and personally gave him the final say.

Wang Chongyi swayed and nearly fell to the ground.

At this moment,

The sound of orderly horses' hooves echoed from the end of the training ground.

A group of guards led the way, and then Lu Chenzhou and Lin Shang entered.

The noisy training ground fell into a deathly silence in an instant.

Everyone lowered their heads and held their breath, no one daring to speak.

Lu Chenzhou's gaze fell on Wang Chongyi, whose face was ashen, and he said in a cold voice:

"Wang Chongyi, what else do you have to say?"

Wang Chongyi was filled with boundless hatred.

The long sword fell to the ground, and he began to curse loudly.

"Isn't this the result you wanted? Lu Chenzhou, you bastard, don't think I can't see through your schemes. You used Shen Chuxiao to strip me of my military power and suppress our old subordinates. Do you think you've won? Don't be too smug. Humph, just wait, someone will deal with you."

"And you, Liu Wenzhao, today it's me, next is you, hahaha, I'm waiting for you!"

His hard-earned business, built over several years, was destroyed in an instant.

There's no reason not to go crazy.

Lu Chenzhou remained unfazed by his death threat, his eyes showing no emotion: "Take him down, remove his official robes and rank, and throw him into prison. All military affairs in the Western Camp are suspended immediately, pending reorganization."

"yes!"

The guards rushed forward and grabbed Wang Chongyi's arms tightly.

The last moment before being taken away

Wang Chongyi looked up, staring intently at Shen Chuxiao, his eyes bloodshot.

"Shen Chuxiao! I refuse to accept this! Even if I die, I will never let you go!"

Shen Chuxiao smiled:

"You can't beat me when you're alive, and you still want to fight me when you're dead? Believe me or not, I'll dig up your corpse, chop it up, and feed it to the dogs."

Wang Chongyi froze, and was forcibly dragged out of the training ground.

Lu Chenzhou looked at the tall, upright figure of the young man in the arena, a deep warmth flashing in his eyes.

Subsequently,

Lu Chenzhou turned to look at Liu Wenzhao.

Liu Wenzhao's heart skipped a beat.

He immediately stepped forward and bowed: "This humble general has always kept military discipline in mind, strictly adhered to his duties, and has always been at the general's command!"

The last remaining old faction within the Great Wall has completely submitted.

"Effective immediately, Lin Shang's scout battalion will be merged into the Western Camp. Lin Shang, the former captain of the scout battalion, will be promoted to the rank of adjutant general and will be in charge of all military affairs of the Western Camp."

Lin Shang was taken aback for a moment, then his heart leaped with joy—this Shen Chuxiao had truly brought him many surprises. He straightened his back abruptly and declared loudly, "This subordinate obeys!"

After Lu Chenzhou and his men had gone far away, Lin Shang grinned and leaned close to Shen Chuxiao, saying, "You've really done me a great favor."

Shen Chuxiao patted him on the shoulder: "Congratulations, General Lin. Come on, let's go check out your new territory."

The two walked arm in arm into the depths of the western camp. As they passed Liu Wenzhao, Shen Chuxiao didn't stop, casually tossing out a remark:

"General Liu, the matter of Wang Chongyi ends here."

"But I still remember the time the North Gate was breached."

Liu Wenzhao froze, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat.

Only after Shen Chuxiao's figure disappeared around the corner of the barracks did he slowly straighten up, his face alternating between pale and flushed.

"General, we..."

"Shut up and go back."
