Chapter 1492 Letter From Yelu Zong
Hong Qingyun understood in his heart that what Wu Fan said made sense. Even if he could ignore Wu Fan now, Wu Fan's future was brighter than his. To be able to reach his current position, he had already paid several times more than others. After working hard, if you don’t have a backer, it will be very difficult to move up.
He had already found a backer in Yelu Hongfei, but now that Yelu Hongfei is dead again, his future is dark, which is exactly the opposite of Wu Fan.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not like military affairs. This is known to everyone in the Shuiyue Kingdom's court. To put it bluntly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not know the existence of such a number one person as you. After all, a general of your level , There are too many in our Shuiyue Kingdom, and it is normal for His Highness the Crown Prince not to know about it. Naturally, it is impossible for him to send an invitation to you." Wu Fan continued: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's intervention in the army is just forced by the second prince. That's all. Once the second prince dies, His Highness the Crown Prince will still not be very interested in military affairs. His Highness the Crown Prince has promised me that I will be fully responsible for military matters. When His Highness the Crown Prince takes over, what status will I have in Shuiyue Kingdom? , you can think about it.”
Hong Qingyun's face showed a thoughtful look.
If other people said this, Hong Qingyun would only think that the other party was too naive and was fooled by His Highness the Prince's promise. The promise of such a big shot may not be very credible.
But Wu Fan is different. Wu Fan holds Yelu Hongfei's identity token in his hand. This token represents Yelu Honglin himself outside, and has great power. If Yelu Honglin didn't trust and rely on him very much, It is absolutely impossible for a person to get such a token, so Wu Fan must be Yelu Honglin's absolute confidant.
Moreover, it is indeed no secret in the court of Shuiyue Kingdom that Prince Yelu Honglin does not like the military. It is quite normal for him to leave military matters to his confidants.
Thinking of this, Hong Qingyun felt relieved. Wu Fan's solicitation towards him made Hong Qingyun feel less ridiculous.
General Hong Qing, this is your best and last chance. Wu Fan continued: "Shanhu Camp is the elite force of our Shuiyue Kingdom. It is impossible for me to let such an elite force fall into the hands of someone who does not trust it so much. Do you understand what I mean?" "
"You want to remove me from my post?" Hong Qingyun frowned and said, "Do you know that Shanhu Camp was built by me, and all the soldiers in the team only obey my orders. If you replace them with others, you can't command them. ”
"So what?" Wu Fan smiled lightly: "If they don't obey the command, I can break them up, break them up, and insert them into other teams."
"You can't do this. If you do this, you will destroy this team!" Hong Qingyun said angrily.
"If I can't control it, I would rather destroy it!" Wu Fan said lightly.
Hong Qingyun looked at Wu Fan, his face changing constantly. He could see that Wu Fan was not joking. Originally, Yelu Hongfei had a great say in the Shuiyue Kingdom's army, but now, Yelu Hongfei is dead. , Wu Fan is the prince's confidant, so he is fully capable of doing this, and it is entirely possible to do so.
By then, not only was he finished, but Shanhu Camp was finished as well.
And the only way to avoid such a situation seems to be to accept Wu Fan's solicitation.
Hong Qingyun was a decisive person. Once he figured it out, he would not hesitate anymore. He knelt down on one knee to Wu Fan and said respectfully: "General Hong Qingyun, I am willing to accept your orders!"
"Very good, you made a right decision." Wu Fan said calmly, and at the same time, he breathed a little sigh of relief.
However, Wu Fan also knew that the reason why Hong Qingyun accepted his recruitment was mainly due to Yelu Honglin. If he wanted Hong Qingyun to only obey his orders, he still needed to continue to work hard.
After Hong Qingyun stood up, Wu Fan said, "Tell me what happened here."
"Yes, sir." Hong Qingyun responded.
Later, Hong Qingyun told Wu Fan everything that happened after they came to Yangyuguan.
After listening to Hong Qingyun's story, Wu Fan was dumbfounded. He had never thought that such a big thing would happen because of a mistake, and it seemed that the mistake was related to himself.
"So, now all the middle and high-level generals in Yangyu Pass have been killed?" Wu Fan asked.
"Yes." Hong Qingyun said: "Now we occupy Yangyu Pass, but the army and people in Yangyu Pass are quite dissatisfied with us. Many people have made trouble in the past two days."
"This is normal." Wu Fan said: "This Yangyu Pass is originally a border pass. Most of the families of the generals you killed live here. If you kill those people, can their families and cronies not take revenge?" ?”
"According to Yelu Hongfei's plan, are you planning to occupy this place, and then prepare to attack Yanfeng Kingdom after receiving the order?" Wu Fan asked.
"That's it." Hong Qingyun said.
"It is somewhat similar to what I said before to deceive the Emperor of Blackwater Kingdom." Wu Fan muttered.
However, now that Wu Fan has come to Yangyu Pass and subdued Hong Qingyun, he will naturally not attack Yanfeng Kingdom again.
At least, not yet.
"Don't worry, I'll handle this matter." Wu Fan said to Hong Qingyun.
"Yes, sir." Hong Qingyun responded: "Oh, by the way, sir, I have just received a letter from the imperial capital and am preparing to hand it to the second prince."
Hong Qingyun said, took out a letter and handed it to Wu Fan.
Wu Fan opened it without hesitation and frowned when he saw the contents of the letter.
This letter was written by Yelu Zong to Yelu Hongfei. The letter said: Yanfeng Kingdom has agreed to Tianji Kingdom’s request for marriage. Tianji Kingdom also wants to complete the marriage. If the two countries are allowed to complete the marriage, it will be very difficult for them. The Shuiyue Congress is extremely unfavorable. Yelu Sect has sent people to intercept the Yanfeng Kingdom's wedding party. He asked Yelu Hongfei not to act rashly against Yanfeng Kingdom for the time being. It is very sensitive at this time, and the marriage between Tianji Kingdom and Yanfeng Kingdom has become It's complicated, and how they should deal with it in the future is still being discussed.
Yelu Zong knew his second son very well and knew that Yelu Hongfei would probably make his own decisions and take the initiative to attack Yanfeng Kingdom, so he wrote a letter to remind Yelu Hongfei.
The current relationship between the three big countries is very complicated, and anything can happen. The previous alliance between Tianji Kingdom and Shuiyue Kingdom has already collapsed when Tianji Kingdom wanted to complete the marriage with Yanfeng Kingdom. The country will no longer trust the Tianji Kingdom.
Of course, in fact, they did not trust Tianji Kingdom too much before.
