Chapter 179 Fanning the Wind and Lighting the Fire
Seeing An Lianqi and Shangguan Feifei walk into the tent with unkind expressions, everyone shut their mouths and did not dare to speak.

"The commander-in-chief has something urgent to do, so he specially asked me to send a message that today's military seminar is cancelled, and you all go back." Looking at the faces of these generals, Shangguan Feifei said without joy or sadness.

"Princess, as the commander-in-chief of the army, he commands all the troops. It is a big taboo to disappear without a trace like this. If the enemy army invades, whose order should we obey?" Fang Xiong caught this Braid, how can you let go?

"Princess, I implore the princess to think twice, Zhe Chengcheng will lose the position of commander-in-chief. He is not suitable to be the commander-in-chief of an army at all." Lu Zhao also popped up and said loudly.

"That's right, that's right." In the commander's account, there was a clamor for a while, and they all agreed to replace Cheng Cheng as the commander in chief.

"Shut up! I know whether to change the commander or not. Cheng Cheng didn't do anything against the rules of the army. He entrusted me with all affairs in the army. Could it be that I can't make the decision?" Shangguan Feifei She was really angry, in the palace, she was used to cliques and intrigues, but she also hated such intrigues.

Seeing the princess saying this, everyone is speechless. Can the princess of the empire not be the master of the army?
"Okay, today's military seminar is cancelled. Let's all go back." Suddenly, what Cheng Cheng said was right. The imperial army's morale was not unified, and they were not qualified to start a war with the enemy. Once a war started, they would undoubtedly lose.Shangguan Feifei also knew that changing the battle would affect the morale of the army, but she still did it out of trust in Cheng Cheng.

Fang Xiong's face darkened, he snorted coldly and walked out of the handsome tent, followed by Lu Zhao.All the generals in the army also walked outside one after another. At this time, Shangguan Feifei shouted again: "General Gao Jingao, you stay here."

"Yes!" Gao Jin was stunned for a moment, seeming to be interested, and then hurriedly replied after a while.

It was a great honor to be kept by the princess. All the generals turned their attention to Gao Jin. I don't know when did the princess fall in love with him?

When Cheng Cheng left, he highlighted Gao Jin to Shangguan Feifei, and assigned tasks to him.After all the generals left one after another, An Lianqi and Shangguan Feifei also took a closer look at Gao Jin. With sword eyebrows and star eyes, he was indeed a man of majesty, no wonder he would appreciate it too.

"Before the commander-in-chief left, he gave you a mission. He asked you to meet your cousin Gao Yuan when it was dark tonight, and try your best to persuade him to surrender. At the same time, fifty elite soldiers with good water skills were sent to take the enemy The gate of the Junshui Building has been occupied, and they are on call at any time." Shangguan Feifei told Gao Jin verbatim what Cheng Cheng had told her.

"Yes, the last general will definitely live up to the high expectations of the princess and the commander." Gao Jin happily replied that he didn't expect the commander to have a task for him.

"Okay, you go down first and select fifty elite soldiers with good water quality, and you must do it neatly at night." Nodding, Shangguan Feifei said.

"Yes!"

Only Shangguan Feifei and An Lianqi were left in the command tent, An Lianqi looked worried and asked, "Feifei, do you think they sneaked into the enemy camp?"

Seeing her nervous and worried appearance, Shangguan Feifei couldn't help but teased and said: "How dare you say that you don't care about him. Look, you care more about him than my good sister."

"Where is it?" An unprecedented blush, An Lianqi was still quibbling: "He is the commander of the army now, of course there must be no mistakes, otherwise the empire's efforts will come to naught."

"Hmph, I'm not arguing with you either, as long as everyone knows it well." Shangguan Feifei smiled sweetly, but that ambiguous smile clearly said that she was sophistrying, and there was a bit of bitterness hidden in the depths.Since she was a child, she regarded An Lianqi as a sister, and she fell in love with a man at the same time, she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing.

"I'm too lazy to talk to you." An Lianqi spat lightly, as if she had seen through her thoughts, and quickly turned around and ran away.

As soon as An Lianqi left the tent, the smile on Shangguan Feifei's face froze. She knew this sister very well, and she knew in her heart that her feelings for Cheng Cheng were deeper than her own. Should she stop in time? ?And when she thought of Stallone, who had a deep love for Angelica since childhood, she really didn't know how to solve this complex?

"Commander, it seems that the princess is determined to protect that boy. You have spent half your life serving the empire, but in her eyes, you are not as good as a boy. It is really infuriating." Just after returning to the tent, Lu Zhao poked a hornet's nest indignantly.

Originally, there was boundless resentment in his heart, but when he heard this, Fang Xiong really thought that there were hundreds of bees buzzing in his chest, he was irritable and irritated, his chest heaved and heaved.

"Come here, bring me some wine." Fang Xiong yelled loudly as he slapped the table.

Not long after, two soldiers came in with a jar of wine each, and put the wine on the table.

Fang Xiong grabbed a jar of wine, slapped the mud seal off the mouth of the jar, lifted the jar and poured it into his mouth, the transparent wine overflowed from his mouth and wet his clothes.

"Boom" Fang Xiong poured a gulp, smashed the wine jar on the table, pushed the other jar to Lu Zhao and said, "You come too!"

Lu Zhao also patted open the mud seal, drank wine with him, and continued after drinking a few mouthfuls: "Commander, using wine to relieve your worries will only make you more worried. The princess will definitely not trust you, so stay in the army It's also useless and a laughingstock."

"What do you mean?" Putting down the wine jar, Fang Xiong asked suspiciously.

"The commander-in-chief has devoted himself to the empire and died. He has not even been trusted. Why should we make us work for the Shangguan family? This is an obvious way to kill the donkey, replace you, and then replace that little boy with a position. All your achievements have become the pockets of others, a typical rabbit dies and dogs are boiled, and the bird is hidden." Lu Zhao said sadly.

"bang"

Hearing this, Fang Xiong punched the table, making a hole.He is good at leading troops and fighting, but his brain is not very good, and he is especially easy to be instigated by Lu Zhao.His eyes were red, and he took advantage of the wine and said angrily: "The Shangguan family is not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous, the worst is to stop working for his family."

"Yes, the commander-in-chief should have been like this a long time ago." Lu Zhao patted the table in agreement, and then persuaded: "I know a place to go, and there is a place for the commander-in-chief. It would make a servant so insulting."

"tell me the story!"

"Helian's family!"

"What? You want me to join those rogue officials and thieves?" Fang Xiong was taken aback and asked dumbfounded.

"The commander-in-chief is wrong. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. This is an iron law that has never changed since ancient times. All history can be rewritten by the winner. As long as you invest in the Helian family and defeat the Shangguan family, you will be the founder of the country." Yuan Xun, no one dares to point and point at you behind your back." Narrowing those knife-shaped eyes, it was almost invisible, Lu Zhao said provocatively.

"However, I have fought so many battles with the Helian family's army, how could they take me in?" Fang Xiong was still hesitating. Difficult to accept.

"The commander-in-chief can rest assured that His Majesty Helian Wencheng is a person who loves talents. As long as the commander-in-chief is willing to join him, he will definitely be reused."

"How can you be so sure?"

"The matter has come to this, and I will not hide it from the commander. I have some relatives with the Helian family. I hated them for treason at first, but now I think that the Shangguan family is stupid and unreasonable. Even a talented and bold person like the commander should be excluded. It is time to change the dynasty. .” With a sigh, he shook his head and said.

Fang Xiong fell into silence when he heard this, and after a long while, he gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Okay, I will join you in Helian's family and Shangguan's family, let's not stay here."

"That's right, Commander-in-Chief, I respect you!" He touched the jar with Fang Xiong, and seeing him drinking with his neck tilted back, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Lu Zhao's mouth.

"Although the commander-in-chief has handed over his military power, he still has a huge appeal in the army. As long as you raise your arms, thousands of soldiers will follow you. Without the backbone of the commander-in-chief, the Shangguan family will undoubtedly be defeated. Let the Helian family be wiped out. At that time, the commander-in-chief will be the founding father of the country, and everyone will admire him." After speaking, Lu Zhao laughed.
