Krypton gold longevity: a hundred years of life at the beginning

Chapter 91 The Queen's Plan

Outside Qingcheng.

Youwuwei camp.

A middle-aged man in armor entered the general's tent, waved away the military doctor and others in the tent, looked back and forth around a camp bed, and muttered with a smile on his face:

“Tsk tsk, Old Duan, Old Duan, I didn’t expect you to be here today!
They say that if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet. I didn’t expect that not only did your shoes get wet, but your whole body was soaked in it.

It seems that God still has a good idea. That girl from the Cheng family has done a good job. She will definitely chat with Lao Cheng if she has the opportunity in the future. Unexpectedly..."

"enough…"

A low roar sounded in the tent, but after hearing the man's humiliation, Duan Zhigang, who was lying on the bed, could no longer pretend. He immediately stood up, stared angrily, and said fiercely:
"Pei Xiaomao, if you came to see my joke, now that you have finished reading it, please leave the camp. If you want to discuss other matters, you can also find my lieutenant. In short, I just don't want to see you now, so I'll give you a call immediately. I’m going to get lost.”

Pei Xiaomao, whose real name is Pei Hu, is the Duke of Dawu Liang and the current general of You Xiaowei.

Seeing Duan Zhigang getting angry from embarrassment, Pei Hu felt even happier, but on the surface he said angrily: "You're such a scoundrel Duan, I came to see you out of kindness, but you're going to drive me away without even telling the truth!
Okay, let's go, but as soon as I leave, You Xiaowei will have to follow me. I just don't know where you Youwuwei will go next! "

"and many more!"

Seeing that Pei Hu was about to turn around and leave after finishing speaking, Duan Zhigang stopped him and asked urgently: "Pei Xiaomao, what do you mean? Where should You Wuwei go? Shouldn't we be together..."

"What together? Haha, old Duan, you are thinking too much."

Pei Hu turned around and said with contempt on his face: "For a young man, Youwuwei was injured nearly one-tenth, and hundreds of horses were killed. Old Duan, do you think Youwuwei can continue traveling westward?" ?

Also, regarding the attack on Youwuwei, I wrote the paperwork for you yesterday and handed it to the Ministry of War. We should be almost in the capital now. You should think about how to respond to the investigation by the Ministry of War! "

Submit it to the Ministry of War!
After hearing this, Duan Zhigang calmed down. After another moment of silence, he sighed and said calmly:
"Actually, regarding the attack, my lieutenant general has already written a document and submitted it. There is also a secret letter from the commander-in-chief in the army to report it. My position as a general is already difficult to protect, so why do you need to add insult to injury!"

"To add insult to injury!" As if he heard something funny, Pei Hu said with a strange expression: "Isn't this kind of thing what you are best at? I remember that a few years ago, when I made a mistake and stayed at home, you were the one who took advantage of me. Wei hired a lot of people to go there!
Forget it, let's not talk about the past. Don't worry, I'm not as petty as you. The reason why I reported it to the Ministry of War was just for the mission. If such a big thing happened to you Youwuwei, you'd better recuperate for a while. "

"Who did you recommend to go to the Northwest?"

"Shenwuwei."

...

Gods.

The imperial palace, in the Palace of Longevity.

A woman who had fallen asleep for a while gently rubbed her forehead a few times, sighed and slowly walked down from the cloud bed...

Dressed in red clothes, she was gently held up by the servants on both sides, and the door of the Palace of Eternal Life was opened. The most noble woman in the Wu Dynasty, the current empress, walked out.

The empress's surname is Wu Mingyue. She is the only daughter of the late emperor. She was once named Princess Yong'an. She has been on the throne for four years now.

Speaking of which, as a woman, the empress' path to becoming an emperor was not always smooth. She was co-opted, suppressed, reformed, and rewarded... It was only through all these plans that this woman grew up to what she is today in just four years. A true empress, no one dares to disobey once the imperial power is given.

Until now, the empress breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was still opposition within the Wu Dynasty, she could no longer afford to make big waves. She also had time to focus on improving national power.

The Western Region is her first step towards the outside world. If she wants to increase her national strength, her financial resources must keep up. If she wants to quickly increase her financial resources, the Western Region is the key.

There are demons causing trouble in Lin'an and Qingcheng. She has known about it for a long time, although she did not expect that there would be so many in number and the trouble would be so serious...

But so what if there were heavy casualties in these two cities?A few casualties would confuse the devil even more, and also provide more excuses to delay support for the countries in the Western Region.

In a place as big as the Western Region, there are actually 36 countries. One or two cities and tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians can be called a country. In the eyes of Dawu people, this is like a joke.

The empress even believed that there were too many countries in the Western Region, which also hindered the trade between Dawu and the Western countries. This time the demon ostensibly went to the demon-suppressing army, but the actual target was indeed the 36 countries in the Western Region.

After learning about this, the empress simply came up with a plan. It would be more beneficial for Dawu to have fewer countries in the Western Regions. It would be great if the entire Western Regions could be included in Dawu.

As for the stronger demon!
In the eyes of the empress, problems that can be solved with weapons are not considered difficult problems. It is better than talking to each country in the Western Region one by one.

In fact, if she were not afraid of arousing the vigilance of the Western countries, she would have personally mobilized her troops to destroy those small countries.

For those small countries in the Western Region, the impression of the empress was particularly bad. Not only was she constantly sucking the blood of Dawu through business, but she also did a lot of shit all day long. Those envoys would waste her time just by meeting one by one. A few days.

Thinking of the plan for this matter, the empress couldn't help but look up in the direction of Qingcheng. Judging by the time, Youwuwei and Youxiaowei should have set off from there. I wonder what happened to the Demon Suppressing Army!

After the two teams arrive at the Demon Suppressing City, the real battle will depend on the Demon Suppressing Army. I wonder if they are ready to attack the Demon Abyss!

Just as the empress was thinking about things in the Western Regions, a female official in green clothes was walking quickly with small steps.

"His Majesty."

A soft cry sounded, and the empress frowned slightly. She had just woken up for a while and then had something to deal with. She really didn't have any time to spare.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Seeing that the empress' tone was not very good, Shangguan Qingzhu carefully handed over the secret letter in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, this is the secret letter that has just been received by the Chamber of Commerce. Youwuwei was attacked on the way to Qingcheng. Although No one died, but there were many wounded, including the general Duan Zhigang and the right army commander Duan Zhixiong...

According to the information obtained by the Youwuwei secret guards, it was the Cheng family sisters who attacked the army. The cause of the incident..."

"Wait a minute, Cheng sisters!"

Hearing these words, the empress' brows relaxed a little. She must be that woman. She hasn't paid attention to her for a long time since she ascended the throne. I don't know how she is doing during this time!

Thinking of this, the empress directly took the secret letter and checked it herself.

"Abducting a 16-year-old boy just to force him into the Youwu Guard... This General Duan is really promising. This little guy named Zhang Hua is also quite interesting. He can actually make the leader of an army He and that woman both went to war over him."

"The command of the Youwu Guards... Haha, there is no command at all. This is the general of my Twelve Guards of the Dawu Guards!"

"Duan Zhigang seems to have suddenly reached the second level! That woman can press him down and fight, and it seems that she has broken through... Is her previous injury healed?"

"And her sister, she was only six or seven years old at the time. I didn't expect that she would be so old and get married in a blink of an eye. That woman's vision... Haha, I wonder what about this Zhang Hua?"

Although the empress said that one was interesting and the other was amazed, she actually didn't have much expression on her face. It only changed a little when she saw something about Cheng Xinchui.

Throwing the secret letter down, the empress frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "Qingzhu!"

"Wei Chen is here." Shangguan Qingzhu, who had just picked up the secret letter, bowed and listened to the order.

"Let the Chamberlain's Office collect information about Cheng Xintui in Lin'an City... Well, let's also check out her sister and the young man named Zhang Hua!"

"promise."

"Also, regarding the matter of Youwuwei, has the Ministry of War received any news?"

"Reply to Your Majesty, the Chamber of Commerce delivers news relatively quickly, but the Ministry of War may have to wait until midnight for news."

"Midnight!"

After hearing the words, the empress looked to the northwest again, and then sighed: "Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow. You will go and inform Xia Lu Guogong later, and let him ask for a battle tomorrow."

"promise."
