Chapter 1445 Another Urgent Report From Yangyu Pass
No wonder Qi Feng was so angry.
In the battle of Shanling Pass in Nanping State, Heishui State suffered heavy losses, and the hundreds of thousands of troops sent were almost wiped out. Heishui State was just a small country, not a superpower like Yanfeng State and Shuiyue State. It could not withstand the tossing and the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops at once was enough to make it suffer. Now there are not many troops left in the country.
In Linshui City, there are only tens of thousands of troops at this time.
At this time, there are more than 100,000 troops, without permission, privately mobilized. Although it is not clear who is giving them orders and their specific purpose, it is obvious that this is definitely not a good thing.
What's more, those troops are actually heading towards Linshui City, which can't help but make Qi Feng think more.
Qi Feng's anger was understood by the ministers present. No one spoke at this time, even Sun Zhongcai, who had been reporting the news just now, had already stood aside silently at this time.
Many of the ministers present, like Qi Feng, did not know why those troops were mobilized privately and why they were heading towards Linshui City.
But there was one person who was different from the others, and that person was Sun Zhongcai!
Others could not figure out why those troops had such unusual movements, and Sun Zhongcai was also not very clear, but he had a bold guess in his heart:
The unusual movements of those troops might be related to Peng Chuan!
Others, including Qi Feng, did not know that Peng Chuan had returned to Linshui City. They only thought that Peng Chuan was still in Nanping State. Among the people present, only Sun Zhongcai knew about this situation.
As the highest military commander of the entire Black Water State, Sun Zhongcai knew more and more detailed information than others.
According to intelligence, the commanders of those troops that had unusual movements were all Peng Chuan's former subordinates. If only one person was like this, Sun Zhongcai would not think much about it, but now that multiple former subordinates of Peng Chuan had such unusual movements at the same time, he had to link this matter with Peng Chuan.
Sun Zhongcai has never stopped trying to capture Peng Chuan, but Peng Chuan's group is very smart and familiar with reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance. In addition, they are also familiar with the environment of Linshui City, so it is not easy to find Peng Chuan's group in a short time.
If it were before, Sun Zhongcai could have searched slowly. As long as he sent people to guard the city gates and did not let Peng Chuan's group leave, he would be able to catch Peng Chuan's group sooner or later.
But now it is different. Now because of the unusual movements of Peng Chuan's generals, Sun Zhongcai does not have much time to waste. He knows very well that once the more than 100,000 troops arrive outside Linshui City, it will bring a huge threat to Linshui City.
So before that, Peng Chuan must be captured or killed! Only in this way can this crisis be resolved.
Sun Zhongcai has some regrets in his heart.
After taking over the military power, he is ready to adjust the entire army and replace all the main generals of the army with his people, so as to control all the troops of the Black Water Kingdom in his hands.
However, at that time, their Black Water Kingdom had just experienced a great defeat at Shanling Pass, and people were in turmoil, especially in the army. If he made a large-scale replacement of generals at this time, it would likely cause some chain reactions.
If it was normal, there would be some reactions, Sun Zhongcai would not be afraid. After all, he is now the highest general in the army, and he has the support of Qi Feng behind him. Those generals who were transferred or dismissed, even if they have opinions about him, will not have much impact.
But it is different now. The threat from Nanping Kingdom has always been there. If the people of Nanping Kingdom attack when their army is in chaos, wouldn’t it be a big mess?
It was precisely because of this concern that Sun Zhongcai did not make a large-scale replacement of generals, but chose to proceed step by step.
Soon after, the news of the Nanping Kingdom’s army came, and Sun Zhongcai was secretly proud of it, thinking that he had foresight, but now, he regretted it. If he had acted earlier, this situation would not have happened now, and Linshui City would not be in danger of being surrounded.
However, it is obviously too late to regret now, and regretting it again cannot change the current situation.
"Sun Zhongcai!" Qi Feng looked at Sun Zhongcai: "You are in charge of the army of the whole country now, don't you know anything about this?"
"I am incompetent." Sun Zhongcai said with a face full of shame.
Although he had some guesses in his mind, Sun Zhongcai obviously would not say it out.
"Waste!" Qi Feng said angrily.
For a moment, Qi Feng actually missed Peng Chuan in his heart. If Peng Chuan was still there, this kind of thing would definitely not happen.
Of course, this was just a momentary thought. Qi Feng did not regret killing Peng Chuan's family. He did not believe that his Black Water Kingdom would collapse without Peng Chuan.
"Report!"
At this time, a eunuch hurriedly ran outside the hall, and the expression on the eunuch's face was anxious and panic.
The eunuch trotted all the way and knelt in the middle of the hall.
"Report to your majesty, there is an urgent report from Yangyu Pass!" The eunuch held up a memorial to Qi Feng.
Yangyu Pass?
Qi Feng's eyelids jumped a few times, and he suddenly felt a little panic in his heart.
Did something happen at Yangyu Pass? But didn't the Shuiyue Kingdom's army arrive? With the Shuiyue Kingdom's army there, nothing should happen at Yangyu Pass.
Could this be a report of victory?
While Qi Feng was thinking about it, the eunuch next to him had already taken the memorial and placed it in front of him.
Qi Feng opened the memorial with mixed feelings, and then he performed a unique face-changing skill in front of the ministers.
Tear!
Qi Feng tore the memorial in his hand into two halves, but he was still not satisfied, so he continued to tear it, and roared while tearing: "Yelü Hongfei, you are too much!"
With a roar, Qi Feng threw the torn memorial out, and there seemed to be two fires burning in his eyes.
The ministers in the hall looked at each other, not knowing what happened, but everyone could see that Qi Feng was in a bad mood, very bad, worse than before. If Qi Feng's mood before was just cloudy, now it was thundering and raining.
"Sun Zhongcai, call the troops! I want to go to Yangyu Pass in person!" Qi Feng shouted at Sun Zhongcai.
Sun Zhongcai was shocked when he heard Qi Feng's words, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, calm down, this is absolutely not allowed!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
The ministers in the hall stood up and advised. Although they did not know the specific content of the memorial, it was obviously not possible to send troops to Yangyu Pass at this time.
