Chapter 285 283 The Ungrateful White-Eyed Wolf
General Xue was stared at by Dao Luo and Du Tianlin. His eyes flickered, and then he put on a righteous look and said, "The court and the prince sent me here to guard the border. How can I lend my people to others to rebel so easily?"

"The imperial court." Du Tianlin raised the corner of his mouth, looked at the stubborn and self-righteous General Xue sarcastically, and said sarcastically: "You are so obsessed with the imperial court, then why didn't you ask the imperial court for military pay and food in the past few years to support so many troops in Saibei?"

"I..." General Xue choked and didn't dare to look at anyone else.

All the generals in the Northern Frontier knew that the imperial court had stopped distributing food and military salaries for many years, and that Prince Xiao Junlin used his own money and food to support the Northern Frontier Army.

In the past few years, it was the woman in front of him who sent a transport team named Murray and notified them that the Saibei Army would go and pick up the food.

Who wouldn't understand? The food was transported from her territory, which meant that the Saibei Army was supported by this female sponsor in the past few years.

"Unless the prince comes in person, I will not lend you troops based on your words."

General Xue's eyes were evasive. Even though he was in the wrong, he made it clear that he would never lend troops to Gu Hua and his men.

"Ha!" It was her turn to take action when the bastard came. Gu Hua felt ridiculous for supporting the ungrateful man for three or four years in vain. "Let's go."

The entire Northern Frontier Army of 200,000 troops has been supported by her for three or four years, but she cannot even borrow 50,000 people. If she is not ridiculous, then who is ridiculous?

……

When Gu Hua left with Han Jinyang and Du Tianlin, both of whom had gloomy faces, and Shen Hongling, some of the generals standing next to Xue Changhui seemed to be hesitant to speak, with a look of regret, some looked indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with them, and the rest looked at him with contempt.

He whispered mockingly, "I don't know what Prince Li is thinking. He lets a woman suppress him and wants to come here to fight. How dare this woman do that?"

"You have the nerve to eat the food my mother has sent us for several years, but we are too embarrassed to come and borrow some men and horses." An An turned around with sharp eyes. The little boy stared at those generals with contempt until they were embarrassed and lowered their heads.

Then he spoke again: "No matter how ungrateful a person is, he shouldn't do the thing of picking up the bowl to eat and then putting it down to curse his mother."

These words made Han Jinyan and others give him a thumbs up despite his young age.

These people just pick up the bowl to eat and put it down to curse. There is nothing wrong with what Master An An said.

An An's tone was neither hurried nor slow, but it made those people so embarrassed that they didn't dare to look up.

After all, anyone with a conscience knows that if you eat someone's food, you will be soft-hearted, and if you take someone's food, you will be grateful. They ate so much military rations...

But not all of these generals have consciences. Their faces flushed for a while, then they raised their heads with confidence and said, "We are defending our country at the northern frontier. What's wrong with you sending us some food? You are making a fuss out of nothing."

"Yes, you are right." Gu Hua sneered and nodded, "I should not be the only one delivering the food to defend the country. In the future, whoever is willing to do this will continue to provide you with military rations."

The general who was speaking choked.

Then his face turned red. In this chaotic world, who else has the ability and willingness to continue to support their Northern Sai Army?

Gu Hua did not return the favor, but she would not continue to be a sucker. She also saw that Xiao Junlin had been away from Saibei for many years and some people had gradually escaped his control, whether they had their own little thoughts or were instigated and bribed by certain people.

Gu Hua wanted to see that there were so many troops in the Saibei military camp. In the whole Daxuan, apart from her, a local tycoon, who else could selflessly dedicate themselves to supporting this army?

I'm afraid that by then they will have no food supply and will be so hungry that they will feel dizzy and dizzy, and the nomadic tribes in the north will not even have to make any effort to attack this city in the northern border.

How could Gu Hua not see that Xue Changhui, the general from the northern border, looked down on her because she was a woman and wanted to rebel and do something big.

Not only did this man gather his own troops and try to break away from Xiao Junlin's control over him as a subordinate and confidant, he was also arrogant and looked down on women, and did not think that a woman like him could succeed in a rebellion.

Watching Gu Hua and his men leave, a general with shifty eyes approached Xue Changhui and made a gesture of wiping his neck: "General, should we…"

Xue Changhui's eyes flashed with cunning, and he said with disdain: "She is just a woman. No matter how she jumps, she is not to be feared. Besides, if we kill her and the child, we will not be able to guarantee that the other person will succeed in breaking through. Then we will have no room for change."

Watching Gu Hua's team leave the city, Xue Changhui also brought his men back to the city.

Gu Hua was stopped by Dao Luo just after he left the city. It was unknown what the two said...

Dao Luo quickly returned to the city, and Gu Hua watched him walk away with a puzzled look on his face.

...Gu Hua was not in a hurry to leave the city.

She and her men found a roadside inn to stay in, because such inns were usually for traveling business teams to stay overnight, so the building had many spacious rooms, enough to accommodate one or two hundred people.

Han Jinyan, Du Tianlin, Shen Hongling, and the young boy An An were all a little surprised why Gu Hua found a place to stay not far away after leaving the city and was not in a hurry to go back, but everyone thought she was in a bad mood and didn't say anything.

Only Gu Hua curled his lips and sneered, knowing the real reason why he stopped here and was not in a hurry to leave.

An An was eating a piece of cake in the room. He didn't know where his mother got it from. It was his favorite cake. He said vaguely, "Mom, your smile is a little scary."

Gu Hua leaned on the table with his chin in his hand, watching An An eat, and said quietly, "My son's mother is so kind, she has raised the army for so many years in vain. That General Xue didn't lend me any soldiers, and I didn't even ask him to settle the score, so why is he smiling so scary?"

The steady young boy rolled his eyes silently, glanced at his mother, and let her slowly understand what he wanted to express.

He is not like Kang Kang's heartless second brother who only knows how to wield swords and sticks. As a son, he knows a little bit about whether his mother is easy to bully or not.

After supporting her for so long and giving away so much food for free, and suffering such a great loss, if his mother could endure this, he, as her son, would eat the plate of cakes along with the cakes.

Sure enough, An An, who was sleeping in the room next to his mother, stood in front of the window in the middle of the night and saw his mother in a black nightgown, as light as a swallow, leaping onto the roof and disappearing after a few leaps.

He is not Kang Kang and his sister Huan Huan. Even if he is curious about what Gu Hua will do when he goes out, he will not really ask to go with him. After all, if he is not careful, he will become a burden to his mother.

Gu Huafei climbed onto the roof and turned his head to look at the window of An An's room, which had a crack in its teeth. He looked at it, and the corners of his mouth under the veil slightly raised, and he murmured silently: "Smelly boy, you are quite smart..."
