The Return of the Demon

Chapter 269 Birthday

Looking at Ning Chen's proud attitude and listening to his powerful words, Pang Yun's face became more gloomy.

He forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart.

This is outside the city of Yuzhou. They can't get any advantage by forcing it.

But as an envoy of Wu State, he can't weaken the prestige of Wu State.

Pang Yun softened his tone, "General Ning, do you know that your irresponsible words will lead to a war between the two countries and cause great suffering?"

Ning Chen's eyebrows were cold, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Pang Yun said, "I am just explaining the interests to General Ning."

Ning Chen's voice was also much slower, "The Empress of Wu can send you here, which shows that you are a person of character, at least a smart person."

"Since you are a smart person, don't do stupid things."

"Ning knows that the people of Wu are good at fighting, but my Daxuan people are not made of clay, and Daxuan was also established on horseback."

"Although the people of Wu are good at fighting, they are a small country with a sparse population and insufficient troops... You are already at war with Tuola, do you still have the troops to stop my Daxuan's million-strong army?"

Pang Yun said, "General Ning seems to have forgotten that we still have Zhao Bokang's hundreds of thousands of troops."

Ning Chen sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

"You should know that a few days ago, Zhao Bokang led an army of 100,000, but ended up being defeated, abandoning their armor and weapons, and fleeing in a panic."

"After all, the hundreds of thousands of troops under his command are my Daxuan's men. It remains to be seen whether they will go all out on the battlefield."

"You just want to imitate Nanyue and take the opportunity to blackmail my Daxuan... Then I can only tell you that you are blinded by thinking."

Pang Yun said in a deep voice: "It seems that General Ning is determined to go to war with my Wu Kingdom?"

Ning Chen's eyes were cold and sharp, "You are overestimating your own abilities, You are so aggressive and want to take advantage of the situation... Since your Wu Kingdom wants to fight, I, Daxuan, will accompany you. "

"Go back and tell your empress that you want to cede land, it's wishful thinking... You want compensation, but there is no money."

Pang Yun's face turned pale and he said sternly: "In this case, General Ning will have to pay for his arrogance... We will see you on the battlefield."

Ning Chen smiled proudly, "Okay! Then let me see whether your Wu Kingdom soldiers are good at fighting or my Daxuan is better?"

Pang Yun knew that he had come in vain this time and failed to blackmail.

In fact, when the empress sent him here, they analyzed the success rate of this matter based on Ning Chen's personality.

The result of their analysis was that the probability of blackmail success was not high.

The empress meant that it would be good if the blackmail could succeed, but it would not matter if it failed.

So, Ning Chen's refusal was also within their expectations, and they were not so disappointed.

Pang Yun clasped his fists, "In this case, see you later!"

"Stop!"

Ning Chen spoke and stopped them.

Pang Yun turned his horse around and looked at Ning Chen, "General Ning, have you realized your mistake?"

Ning Chen burst out laughing, his face full of mockery.

He said lightly: "You can leave if you want, leave the horse and walk back!"

Pang Yun was furious. It would take ten days and half a month to march from here to the border. How long would it take to walk back?

"Why, you don't want to?"

Pang Yun said in a deep voice: "General Ning is going too far?"

Ning Chen smiled and said: "You don't think it's too much to ask us for land and silver, but I'm going too far to ask you for a few horses?"

After saying that, Ning Chen's face suddenly sank, "Do you think my Daxuan territory is your back garden? Come and go as you please?"

"If the two armies were not fighting, beheading the envoy would be a disgrace to the state... What I want is not your horses, but your lives."

Ning Chen slowly raised his hand, and then dropped it heavily.

The military order on the top of the city immediately conveyed Ning Chen's meaning to Yuan Long.

Yuan Long led 5,000 soldiers and rushed out of the city gate.

The faces of the envoys from Wu State suddenly changed.

Pang Yun was a little panicked, "Ning Chen, you...what do you want to do? The two armies are fighting and the envoys are not killed."

"Hey? Stop shouting, I advise you to follow Ning Chen's wishes, right? He is not as smart as me. He has a problem with his brain. There is nothing he dares not do. The uncle dares to chop him with a knife. What is the envoy?"

Feng Qi said loudly.

Ning Chen turned his head and looked at him, and he was very speechless.

Ning Chen's eyebrows were cold, staring at Pang Yun, "Get off the horse, get out!"

Pang Yun's face was full of anger.

Ning Chen said lightly: "I will count to three, either leave the horse or leave your life, you choose?"

"One."

"Two."

"Get off the horse!"

Pang Yun roared, not giving Ning Chen the opportunity to call three.

He didn't dare to gamble with his life on Ning Chen's temper.

The soldiers of Wu State turned over and dismounted, staring at Ning Chen with anger.

Ning Chen smiled calmly, "Yuan Long, have someone take the horses back. Oh, and take off their weapons... If anyone resists, just chop them down!"

"Yes!"

Yuan Long ordered the soldiers to go and take the horses.

The Wu people were furious, but they could do nothing. They watched their horses being taken away and their weapons being taken away.

Although they were good at fighting, facing five thousand Daxuan soldiers, they would be courting death if they dared to act rashly.

Pang Yun clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, his nails pierced his palms, and he stared at Ning Chen's back... But Ning Chen didn't even turn his head, and rode back to the city, leaving them with a cool and handsome back.

The man in armor next to Pang Yun was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he looked aggrieved.

"Let's... go!"

Pang Yun gritted his back molars and said viciously.

They originally wanted to take advantage of the civil strife in Daxuan to extort a sum of money...but the blackmail failed and even the horses and weapons were taken away.

Damn Ning Chen...when he gets to the battlefield one day, he must pay the price.

In fact, Ning Chen was very kind by not letting them go back naked.

The two armies fought and killed the envoy, which was an insult to the country's prestige.

It's freezing cold. If you go back naked, you will freeze to death in the middle of the road... Wouldn't this be the same as beheading the envoy?

Ning Chen returns to the city.

The city gates are closed and the drawbridge is raised!

Pan Yucheng said in a deep voice: "The people of the Wu Kingdom are good at fighting, and the Empress of the Wu Kingdom often drives and goes to war. If you humiliate me, I guess the empress will not give up."

Ning Chen sneered, "It's not that she won't let it go, it's that we won't let it go... How dare a small country try to blackmail me, Daxuan, and support the traitor Zhao Bokang. It seems that Her Majesty the Empress has never been beaten before?"

"I guess His Majesty's reinforcements should be arriving in the next few days. Let's have a good rest these days. We will have to travel a long distance in a while."

Pan Yucheng said: "Want to fight at the border?"

Ning Chen corrected, "It's to regain the border, which is my Daxuan's territory."

Pan Yucheng shook his head, "The New Year is approaching, and it seems that we will celebrate the New Year on the battlefield."

Ning Chen chuckled, "If everything goes well, there will be enough time."

Pan Yucheng chuckled, "Today is November 17th."

"Yeah, the Chinese New Year is coming soon!"

Pan Yucheng and Feng Qizheng looked at him strangely.

Ning Chen didn't know why, "What's wrong?"

Pan Yucheng asked: "What day is today?"

"Didn't you say it? November 17th."

Feng Qi shouted loudly, "Ning Chen, have you forgotten that today is your birthday?"

Ning Chen was startled, then slapped his forehead, "It's true, I forgot all about it!"

Pan Yucheng smiled and said: "Let's go back to Mei Mansion. I have already prepared a banquet to celebrate your birthday!"

Ning Chen couldn't help but feel moved.

The Supervision Department had all his information, so it was not surprising that Pan Yucheng knew the day of his birth... What moved him was that they still remembered it even though he had forgotten it.
