Chapter 278 The Chen Family of Sakura Country Is Doomed, and No One Can Protect It.
Whenever Chen Zheqing personally leads the army on an expedition, the imperial bosses present may not react much.
After all, Chen Zheqing has been deeply involved in the military world for many years, and has led his troops on many expeditions, including many heroic records of destroying countries.
Maybe Chen Zheqing's strength is not the strongest among the older generation of strong men.
But his military skills are absolutely top-notch.
Once he is allowed to lead an elite army, hide in the army, and form a military formation, even an ordinary eighth-grade war emperor will find it difficult to defeat him.
Father Chen's most powerful achievement was when he led the Chen family's elite cavalry to encircle and suppress a foreign dynasty. Without top-notch combat power, he relied on the power of the military formation to gather his "military soul" and defeat him. The eighth-level alien king finally forced him back and successfully destroyed the entire alien dynasty.
After this battle, Chen Zheqing became famous and officially took over the position of his father Chen Shanhe and became the leader of the imperial military.
This is the reason why Ito Ryuue did not regard Chen Zheqing as an assassination target before.
Chen Zheqing has always been in the third theater of the empire, surrounded by millions of elite troops. Even if the eighth-grade War Emperor personally takes action, he may not be able to do anything to him.
If the five quasi-emperors at that time, Xiao Qing, Du Ji, the ancestor of the Ling family, the Langxin Swordsman, and the fat pig quasi-emperor, dared to go to the third theater of the empire to attack them, they would probably die miserably, and their heads would be wrenched off and hanged. On the city wall for the whole army to watch.
As long as he is allowed to lead the army, no one will dare to underestimate the head of the Chen family.
Even the many empire bosses present were convinced by him.
But now, an eighteen-year-old young man is going to lead the army and ride on their head? !
This immediately made some of the strong men in the empire who held their own seniority frown, and some of them couldn't accept it.
Even among the heads of the top aristocratic families sitting at the round table, only the head of the Bai family, Bai Yinyun, looked at Chen Beiyuan with gentle and kind eyes, while most of the others looked at him with some kind of special scrutiny.
Among them, Lin Xufeng, the head of the Lin family, looked at him with a look that was not only scrutinizing, but also a bit warm and angry.
Facing those pairs of scrutinizing eyes that seemed to contain endless pressure and carried strange emotions, Chen Beiyuan looked very calm and collected, without being affected at all, and there was no wave on his face at all.
Anyone else would have shown a guilty conscience under the gaze of the empire's top bosses, but Chen Beiyuan completely ignored it.
Such a strong character surprised many people and nodded secretly.
Those who feel thunder in their hearts and faces like a flat lake can worship the general.
Regardless of whether Chen Beiyuan had some troubles in his heart, his expression did not change at all, and he already had the abilities that a commander should have.
But what they didn't know was that the reason why Chen Beiyuan was so calm was because of his strength.
It is not an exaggeration to say that his current strength under normal conditions is the best among the eighth-grade war emperors.
Already initially possessing the ability to lift tables.
"Ahem, cough, cough. To be fair, young people should always be given some opportunities to try..."
Bai Yinyun, the head of the Bai family, coughed deliberately, looking like a good old man.
But before he could finish speaking, Qin Yueshan, the head of the Qin family, the official minister on the side, interrupted him instantly:
"Wait a minute, I feel something is wrong. My nephew, Beiyuan, it's not that I have any objections to you. In fact, the expedition is a big deal and involves too many aspects. Your talent is extraordinary and everyone can see it. But It’s still a little bit worse.”
"Since your father is unwilling to lead the army, it is better to let Brother Xu Feng lead the army. My nephew Beiyuan will first act as his deputy and be skilled in military affairs."
The Qin family and the Lin family are in-laws, and they have a very close relationship. It is normal for Qin Yueshan to speak for the Lin family at this time.
Perhaps it was Qin Yueshan who spoke, and the other heads of the top aristocratic families also spoke one after another.
However, to everyone's surprise, they all said they opposed sending troops.
"It's not right, it's not right. After all, Beiyuan's nephew is now intact and nothing serious has happened. He just goes out to attack the entire Sakura Country at will. I'm afraid it's wrong. I suggest unilaterally condemning the Sakura Country and asking them to hand over Find the person behind the scenes."
"After all, Sakura Country is a member of the same human alliance. It is really not good to conquer them at will. Brother Ye's proposal just now is not bad. Why not issue a diplomatic condemnation and let them make corresponding compensation."
"You have to be merciful and merciful. After all, the Donghua Empire is the top power of the human race, and it still needs to maintain its face..."
"..."
It is hard to imagine that the heads of these top families in the Donghua Empire are actually starting to defend their Sakura Kingdom and oppose sending troops, as if they are receiving the benefits of the Sakura Kingdom.
But is this really possible? !
Haha, if the Sakura Kingdom can bribe so many high-level officials of the empire, then what's the point? !
"You're all a thousand-year-old fox, why are you pretending to be a fairy tale?"
Chen Beiyuan sneered in his heart, seeing through the tricks of these old foxes at a glance.
In the final analysis, it is interests that are to blame.
As the saying goes:
Success does not have to be mine, success must be mine.
Success without me would be fruitless.
No one was around when I was working, but when I was dividing the cake, everyone showed up.
Your Donghua Chen family wants to send troops to conquer the Sakura Kingdom? No problem at all!
I will definitely support you!
But we have to get a share of it no matter what!
What? No!
Then don’t blame us for holding back!
We may not succeed enough, but we may fail more than enough.
What I can’t get, no one else can have.
You want to go to war? Then I will firmly oppose it!
For these aristocratic families, face is illusory, and interests are real.
When it comes to matters of interest, neither the emperor nor the old man can help.
Seeing these old foxes starting to act like monsters and chirping, Father Chen frowned, his face turned cold, and he was about to speak to protect his son.
But Chen Beiyuan suddenly grabbed his hand, shook his head at his father, and motioned for him to come.
Some things have to be faced by him after all.
"Elders, can you listen to what Beiyuan has to say?"
Chen Beiyuan looked at the people in front of him and spoke slowly, directly interrupting the quarrel of the old foxes in front of him, instantly making the atmosphere calm down again.
In an instant, everyone present focused their attention on him.
I saw him looking around, looking at the faces of old foxes in front of him. The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his tone became cold and domineering:
"The leader of this expedition can only be my Chen family and I, Chen Beiyuan. Whenever someone wants to win the leadership, I, Chen Beiyuan, will definitely accompany him to the end and fight with him first."
"Whether the Donghua Empire supports it or not, the Chen family of Sakura Country is determined to take it, and no one can keep it."
