Chapter 872 This King Wants to Submit to Emperor Ning

"See Your Majesty!"

When Qi Yuanzhong and others learned that Ning Chen had arrived at the military camp, they immediately put down what they were doing and rushed over to pay homage.

Ning Chen raised his hand and said, "Everyone, get up!"

Several people thanked them and stood up.

Ning Chen asked: "How are the preparations going?"

Qi Yuanzhong said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, we will definitely not delay sending troops tomorrow."

Yuan Long then said: "The Ning'an Army is on standby at any time!"

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

Immediately, accompanied by Qi Yuanzhong and others, Ning Chen walked around the military camp and then left!

.......

The next day, the army set off!

War drums beat.

Ning Chen did not take all the troops away.

He only brought an army of 100,000 people, as well as the Ning'an Army and the Modao Army.

There are a total of 160,000 troops at the northern border.

This 160,000-strong army has been officially renamed the Xuanjia Army by Ning Chen.

A hundred thousand troops stretched across the sky, advancing towards Lingzhou.

The march was not fast because Ning Chen had to give King Wu time.

A few days passed by.

Lingzhou Camp.

A soldier came to a tent carrying a food box.

This is King Wu's tent.

The guards in front of the camp stopped the soldiers delivering food.

They opened the food box, checked it carefully, and then searched the soldier's body to make sure there was nothing wrong before letting the soldier in.

The guards in front of King Wu's camp are all Xun Ruiming's men.

On the surface, the Lingzhou defender was King Wu, but in fact the real person in power was the supervisor Xun Ruiming.

Emperor De did not trust King Wu. He could not safely hand over an army of 100,000 to King Wu, and 10,000 of them were equipped with firearms.

Therefore, King Wu was watched closely.

King Wu's eyes lit up slightly when he saw the soldiers coming in to deliver food.

He knew this man, he was from Ning Chen.

In fact, this soldier was not from Ning Chen at all, but a spy from Taichu Pavilion.

"Your Majesty, it's time to eat!"

The soldier said after saluting.

King Wu pointed to the low table in front of him, "Bring it over!"

The soldier stepped forward, placed the food box on the low table, and then lightly tapped the handle of the food box with his fingers.

"My lord, please take it easy. I'm waiting outside. I'll come in and clean up later!"

King Wu nodded slightly and waved his hand.

The soldiers retreated.

They didn't talk because the guards outside were peeping through the cracks in the curtain and eavesdropping.

After the soldiers exited, the guards at the door did not dare to peek anymore.

King Wu took out the food from the food box, then picked up the food box and put it aside. In the process of carrying it, he gently rubbed his fingers under the armrest, and a small hidden compartment appeared, and a piece of paper fell out. Rolled up paper.

King Wu glanced outside the tent, then opened the note.

After reading it, King Wu swallowed the note directly.

He thought for a while, walked over and quickly wrote a secret letter, and then quietly hid it in the secret compartment of the food box handle.

Immediately, he finished the food on the table, then stood up and walked out of the camp.

The guard at the door saw King Wu coming out and subconsciously asked: "Where is the prince going?"

King Wu turned to look at him, suddenly raised his hand and slapped him, staggering back.

"Damn it, do I need to explain to you where I am going?"

King Wu was different from the other sons of Emperor Xuan. The other princes were all raised in the capital, and they were all weak and delicate young masters... King Wu began to lead the army when he was a teenager, fighting on the battlefield with a fierce aura.

Although his ability as a leader is not very outstanding, he dares to fight and fight hard. He even followed Ning Chen to defeat the Xiliang Kingdom. He has a high prestige in the army and has a noble status.

The guard covered his face, lowered his head in a hurry, leaned over and said, "My lord, please forgive me, but I don't dare!"

King Wu sneered and said: "I know it was Xun Ruiming who asked you to stare at me, but I advise you to understand clearly that I am the prince of the royal family. What does Xun Ruiming do?"

After finishing his words, he snorted coldly and strode away!

The two guards looked at each other and hurriedly ran to report Xun Ruiming.

Seeing this, the soldier who delivered the food quickly walked into King Wu's camp.

King Wu walked around the camp, and there were more and more people behind him, all of whom were generals with more than a thousand households in the army.

Xun Ruiming received the news and hurried over.

When he saw that King Wu was followed by more than twenty generals, his expression changed slightly.

Xun Ruiming is not tall, in his thirties, and has an unattractive appearance, but his eyes are shining.

He stepped forward quickly, leaned down and saluted: "I have met King Wu."

King Wu twitched his lips and said, "Supervisor Xun's army arrived just in time. I am about to send someone to find you... come to my camp to talk."

After King Wu finished speaking, he strode towards his tent regardless of whether Xun Ruiming followed him or not.

Xun Ruiming noticed something was wrong. He waved to his men and whispered a few words in his ear.

Immediately, he turned around and quickly caught up with King Wu.

Arrive at King Wu’s camp.

Xun Ruiming was the first to speak: "King Wu suddenly summoned the generals of the army. I don't know why?"

King Wu smiled slightly and said: "The Beilinguan army is stationed outside the city. I have just received news that Emperor Ning has led an army of 100,000 people straight to Lingzhou, so..."

Before King Wu finished speaking, Xun Ruiming frowned and said in a deep voice: "King Wu, please pay attention to what you call Ning Chen. Is a rebellious minister worthy of being called emperor?"

King Wu sneered: "He followed his father's imperial decree to save the country and the people of Daxuan. How can he not be called an emperor?"

Xun Ruiming said in a deep voice: "King Wu, don't forget that the one sitting on the dragon throne now is Emperor De, the legitimate emperor of Daxuan, and King Wu's brother, while Ning Chen is just an outsider, a traitor who intends to usurp the throne."

King Wu's face sank, his eyes were cold, "Brother? A tyrant who imprisoned the emperor, my mother, and my wife, kept loyal ministers away and treacherous, causing the Daxuan country to collapse and the people to live in dire straits. I can't afford to be such an inhuman brother."

Xun Ruiming said sternly: "King Wu, do you know what you are saying?"

King Wu said word by word: "Of course I know, not only that... I also want to tell you that I have decided to lead Lingzhou's 100,000 troops to submit to Emperor Ning."

Xun Ruiming's face changed drastically.

"King Wu, how dare you think of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country?"

King Wu sneered and said, "This king is not only thinking about it, but has already decided to do it."

Xun Ruiming was shocked and angry, and said sternly: "King Wu, think it through. People can't just think about themselves. Think about Concubine Zhao and Concubine Wu."

King Wu sneered, "General Xun may not know that Concubine Wu is missing, right?"

Xun Ruiming's face changed again.

King Wu continued, "The only person Zhang Tianlun dared to touch was my princess... As for my father and my mother, they are his greatest support. If he wants to stay alive and not be nailed to the pillar of shame in history, he will never dare to touch them."

Xun Ruiming was shocked and angry!

He looked at the generals fiercely and said sternly: "Are you going to rebel with King Wu?"

More than 20 generals looked disdainful and looked at him with sarcasm...Isn't this obvious enough?
