I, the villainous eldest prince, will suppress everything!
Chapter 129 It's too late
With Wang Hu's arrival, the situation suddenly changed.
Those generals who were still protecting Qin Li were so happy they wanted to jump up and down.
In contrast, Chen Gui, Wu Daxiong, and the others all looked as if they had eaten shit.
Nothing more!
General Wang Hu is a ruthless killer, and a peak eighth-rank martial arts master.
Beating them was like beating children; none of them were a match for Wang Hu.
"Don't panic!"
"He's all alone, what's there to be afraid of!"
"Before tonight's banquet, I had already ordered the army to surround this place!"
"Tonight, only we will walk out of here alive!"
Chen Gui stretched out his arm, signaling everyone not to panic, as the initiative was still in their hands.
No matter how powerful Wang Hu is, he is no match for a large army.
Wang Hu rubbed his neck and then his wrist.
He looked ready to attack; I really wanted to slap Chen Gui to death.
"You surnamed Chen, do you know why this great general is so late?"
Why?
Chen Gui asked instinctively.
"What else could it be, General? Of course, it's for you to deal with your so-called army, hahahaha..."
The generals in front of Qin Li couldn't help but burst into laughter, and even Qin Li himself couldn't help but smile.
When it comes to controlling a large army, Wang Hu is second to none.
I'm afraid even he, the eldest prince, doesn't have as much prestige in the army as Wang Hu!
As soon as Wang Hu gave the order, the army immediately changed flags and banners without the slightest hesitation.
The army under Chen Gui and Wu Daxiong now belongs to the Wang family.
Chen Gui's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He suddenly looked at Qin Li and roared, "You did it on purpose! You did it on purpose!"
"You deliberately transferred Wang Hu away ahead of schedule and promoted Wei Hongying, just to lure us out!"
Qin Li sneered, "You're only realizing it now? Isn't it too late!"
Yes, he did it on purpose.
He wanted to carry out a major purge within the military.
After planning for so many days, tonight is the time to close the deal.
By killing disloyal generals like Chen Gui and Wu Daxiong, he will be in charge of the army from now on, with only one voice!
Not only the army, but also the entire northern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty would be under his control in the future.
"Alright, nephew, stop wasting your breath on them."
"It's been ages since your uncle has stretched his muscles!"
"Perfect timing, let's get some exercise tonight!"
After saying that, Wang Hu's aura suddenly increased.
It seems that Chen Gui would be dead with just one punch!
"Let's do it!"
Chen Gui realized that sitting and waiting for death would only lead to his demise, so he might as well rely on so many people to take a chance.
They are all high-ranking generals, and their skill levels are not low. If they all attack together, they might not necessarily lose to Wang Hu!
He was the first to draw his knife and slash at Wang Hu.
As he drew his sword to strike, he was shocked to discover out of the corner of his eye that no one was with him. They were all standing still, trembling with fear. Even Wu Daxiong was not with him.
Chen Gui was so angry he was about to vomit blood, but before he could have a chance, Wang Hu threw a punch at him!
The domineering true energy directly shattered the knife in Chen Gui's hand into two pieces, which flew out and stuck into the table not far away.
It wasn't over yet; Wang Hu's fist smashed directly into Chen Gui's chest.
puff!
Chen Gui's chest suddenly caved inward, and his back bulged outward, making him look like a hunchback.
"Wow!"
Chen Gui knelt on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and almost fainted from the pain!
Having defeated Chen Gui in one move, Wang Hu lightly shook his fist, looked at Wu Daxiong and the others, eager to try his luck and full of fighting spirit.
But to everyone's surprise, Wu Daxiong and the others knelt down in unison, their faces filled with fear as they waved their hands.
No, don't come any closer!
Withdrawing his fist and dispelling his inner energy, Wang Hu said, "This is boring."
He hadn't even warmed up properly when the entire opposing team was defeated!
"Nephew, it's resolved."
"Uncle, I'm telling you, do we really need to go through all this trouble for just a few items?"
A few days ago, when Qin Li told him this, Wang Hu was not very happy.
Since we know who's going to rebel, we might as well just go and kill them all.
No one in the entire army could last three rounds against him.
To everyone's surprise, Qin Li refused and insisted that he cooperate in the charade, taking a detour along the rear supply route.
This is really bad. Tonight's activity level wasn't even as high as the energy he expended while walking around, which made him extremely unhappy!
"It's necessary, of course it's necessary!"
Pushing aside the loyal generals in front of him, Qin Li walked straight toward Chen Gui, who was kneeling on the ground spitting blood.
When they passed by Wu Daxiong and his group, they all knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Uncle, you don't understand. If we don't go through this long and roundabout way, how will we know who is truly loyal, who is plotting rebellion, and who is just a fence-sitter!"
"What we need to do is kill the rebels and opportunists, and promote the loyal ones."
Qin Li knew, of course, that going through such a long and arduous process would be time-consuming and laborious, but it was something that had to be done.
Because those opportunists are hard to distinguish; you have to be there in person to tell them apart.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"We will follow Your Highness's lead without hesitation, even unto death!"
Upon hearing this, the generals who had stood guard over Qin Li from beginning to end exchanged joyful glances and knelt down, clasping their hands in greeting.
It was their perseverance tonight that earned them future promotions, wealth, and honor.
Their descendants will thank them for their perseverance tonight.
Those generals who wavered in their resolve and joined the campaign to purge the court of corrupt officials when Chen Gui was on his deathbed must be kicking themselves now.
If they were more resolute, wouldn't that be...?
"Ahem!"
"Gentlemen, they...they won't let you go..."
"Wow...Quick, hurry up and kill them!"
Chen Gui, kneeling on the ground, made a final effort.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood; his life was nearing its end.
The group exchanged glances and were about to stand up.
Since we're going to die anyway, we might as well give it a shot.
Even being beaten to death is better than doing nothing and waiting for someone to chop off their heads.
But just as they were about to get up, they saw Qin Li walk towards Chen Gui.
As Qin Li walked, he said, "Oh, General Chen isn't dead yet?"
"Perfect, let me, the prince, try out another application of this Yin-Yang Great Joy Technique."
After saying that, Qin Li placed his large hand on Chen Gui's head.
Use true qi to drive the operation of the technique.
Instantly, a tangible stream of true energy emanated from the top of Chen Gui's head!
The released true energy entered Qin Li's body through his palms and arms, and then spread to his limbs and bones.
The warm feeling made Qin Li close his eyes and enjoy it.
Chen Gui was unable to move and could only watch helplessly as Qin Li sucked out his true energy.
In no time at all, Chen Gui was drained dry, lying on the ground, his eyes wide open in death.
"call!"
Qin Li breathed a sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and moved his hands, feeling an inexhaustible energy throughout his body.
"hiss--"
Upon witnessing this scene, many people gasped in shock, and some even muttered the words "evil martial arts" under their breath.
