The demon world I designed.

Chapter 1082 Tian Heng's Force
"General Lan came back quite early this time."

"General Tian is quite free"

The leaders of the two armies met again at this critical juncture. Although their tone was calm, any discerning person could smell the strong smell of gunpowder!
Tian Heng looked at the other person, and besides being wary and cautious, he was also a little curious. He himself had not awakened his memory, so he thought he didn't have any past life, because he had also heard about the cruel environment of the Yin Yang Road. To have a past life, one must either have an extremely strong background or be extremely lucky.

Lan Shang's family was not in a good position. According to the previous basic rules, the Lan family could only be an earl family for the next ten generations. The vassal of the Xiao family could have the title of earl because they had elected a good patriarch.

And now, I know that the other party is the real aristocrat.

I'm afraid he was the chosen one many years ago.
However, he was very curious about what kind of mentality someone had when his memories of past lives were suddenly awakened. Did he really not care about this life at all?

The Emperor of the Xiao family thought so highly of him that he even gave him a position like the commander-in-chief of the army. Many old and established families with sufficient qualifications were not able to get it. Does he really not care at all about this level of kindness?
"I'm not as idle as Lord Lan." Tian Heng said with a smile, "I still have time to wander around. The Princess came here before. Did Lord Lan receive the news?"

Lan Shang's pupils shrank slightly when he heard that, and he looked around vigilantly almost subconsciously.

This scene made Tian Heng’s heart even colder.

He didn't have the slightest surprise, or even the slightest respect, only vigilance and a hint of malice!
In the eyes of this guy, the Xiao family's kindness may be worthless now.

What about those awakened people in our own forces?
Among the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Western Navy, there were of course those who were influenced by the Buddha's light, including two newly appointed lieutenants. This made Tian Heng extremely alert at this time. Even Lan Shang, who had received such a great favor, had the intention of rebellion without hesitation. Would his subordinates really remain loyal?

Can I still trust them?
This is what has been revealed. How many are hidden in the dark? I have no idea.
If Chen Qing doesn't come back, the situation in Jiangnan will probably collapse.
"Your Highness didn't write to me in advance when he came back?" Lan Shang said faintly, "That's strange. Where is Your Highness?"

"I heard that Lord Lan went to Daqing Mountain and went to look for you. Didn't Lord Lan meet Your Highness?" Tian Heng asked in a deliberately surprised look.

Lan Shang: “.”

The leaders of the new army are very clear about the abilities of the eldest princess. Not only does she have top-notch command skills, but her own strength is also extremely terrifying. The evil spirit in his body has said that the eldest princess's strength is comparable to that of Xiang Yu, and she is a top-notch existence.

When she came here, the first thing she did was not to take over the army, but to come to me on her own. What did she want to do?
Does she know?

Thinking of this, Lan Shang's eyes became even colder.

Seeing the other party's look, Tian Heng sneered in his heart, but smiled on the surface: "It's okay. If you miss it, I will ask the mountain god of Daqing Mountain to notify His Highness. General Lan, please rest for two days, and His Highness should be able to arrive soon."

"Thank you, General Tian." Lan Shang smiled again and saluted, "Your Highness came here suddenly without any notice. Have you told Brother Tian if there is anything urgent?"

"It should be a very urgent matter." Tian Heng said seriously, "The princess came in a hurry. It is said that she rode here at full speed. The dragon horse she rode is faster than the fastest bird. There is no point in notifying her in advance."

Lan Shang nodded slightly when he heard this. This explanation made sense. If they had arrived as soon as possible, there would have been no need for Feiniao to notify them.

"As for what happened, I'm not in a position to ask, but I heard that there seemed to be trouble in the capital, and the princess came here this time to bring the army back to the capital safely."

“Is that so?” Lan Shang rubbed his fingers. It was obvious that he was also a scheming person in his previous life. Even though he felt the crisis, he remained calm and looked anxious on the surface: “What? There’s trouble in the capital? Is your majesty safe?”

"Your Majesty is a man of great talent and vision, a rare emperor in a thousand years, how could anything go wrong?" Tian Heng said with a smile: "General Lan, don't be nervous. I have already informed the mountain god, and the princess has received the news. Even if she has to go by water, she will be back in two days at most. You just wait patiently."

"Then I'll have to trouble General Tian." Lan Shang saluted with gratitude.

"No, no." The two of them were testing each other with fake smiles, and they chatted for nearly half an hour. Only then did Lan Shang leave Chengguan and quickly walked towards his own military camp.

"Boss, what should we do now?"

The subordinate asked hurriedly after Lan Shang left.

"Keep an eye on him!" Tian Heng said coldly, "Notify the people below to maintain a wartime state at all times, double the number of night watchmen, and be ready to receive orders at any time."

"Boss, will that Lan guy take action?"

"He has no choice but to take action!" Tian Heng sneered, "Otherwise, once the princess comes back, she will definitely take action against him. He will definitely take action."

"Then isn't it a bad idea for us to force him like this? Why don't we wait for the princess to come back before informing him?"

"The news that the princess is coming here can no longer be concealed." Tian Heng said quietly, "The people affected by the Buddha's light are not only the imperial army, but also our people."

The deputy general was stunned when he heard this, then took a breath and said, "Boss, you mean..."

"We must prepare for the worst," Tian Heng sighed, "The princess's information cannot be covered up. He will take action whether I say anything or not. As long as he takes action, we can capture him legitimately. The imperial army has always been yearning for Jiangnan. As long as the army is under my control, even if the princess comes back, I will have a legitimate reason to at least take away half of her people!"

The deputy general's eyes widened. He didn't expect that his boss was so dark-hearted that he actually planned to attack the imperial army!

"It's very risky, but there's no other way. Jiangnan is short of troops right now. If we don't find a solution, I'm afraid the Shen family won't be able to hold on."

"I don't quite understand, but Boss, what should we do?"

“You’re like this at night.”
-
"General, is the news true? Is the princess really here?"

Next to Lan Shang was the deputy general who went to the Buddhist temple with him. The two of them were quite close at this time, because coincidentally, they had been in a superior-subordinate relationship in their previous life.

"This news cannot be false. Tian Heng has many people under his command who are influenced by the Buddha's light. If he lies, the information will naturally be revealed."

"What should we do then?" The deputy general was a little anxious. Even if they recovered their powers from their previous lives, they might not be able to defeat the princess, let alone now.
"We can only plan ahead, control the army, fight our way out, cooperate with the Sky Python outside, and break through the Jiangnan Pass first. When chaos breaks out, we will head straight to the north and find a good pass. No matter how strong the Xiao siblings are, they will be rootless without an army and will not amount to anything!"

"But Lord Buddha wants us to take over Jiangnan."

"In the current situation, it's good enough to be able to maintain control of the army, and take over Jiangnan." Lan Shang couldn't help but roll his eyes: "The situation changes rapidly, how can the plan remain unchanged?"

"As long as we have the army, we are valuable. Lord Buddha will understand this."

"Tonight then?"

"Tonight!!!"
