Crossing straight to the blue sky

Chapter 914 The Fate of the Northwest Army

The Great Northern General Shangguan Qingyun was a deity. Overnight, he was like a spring breeze that blew across the four eastern states and into the hearts of the people who had long been desperate and numb. He took root in their hearts. Only when the warm sun came, their dead hearts would come back to life and take root and sprout again.

The will of the people is like a huge wave rolling down, and no one can stop it.

When the people from all over the country heard that the northern army was coming, they were secretly very happy. There was no need for anyone to bribe them. Whichever city the northern army went to, the people of that city would spontaneously become their internal supporters.

  With the cooperation from both inside and outside, how could Qingyun and the others not be happy!

Sometimes, before the northern army arrived, the people would rise up in rebellion and fight against the armies in the counties and prefectures.

With such a great assist, it would be hard for Qingyun not to win.

Shangzhou General's Mansion

In the main hall of the lobby, Madam Shan and several elders of the Shan family were waiting for news, when suddenly a servant's frightened voice was heard outside.

"Madam, it's bad, Madam, it's bad, the people who went to Huzhou sent back news that the Major General is not in Huzhou!"

"He's not in Huzhou. Where did the young general go?" asked Mrs. Shan.

"I heard from the general of Huzhou that the Northwest Army suddenly attacked the city, and then the major general led the army to pursue the Northwest Army. Now they don't know where they are. The people in Huzhou asked, should they go to find the major general, or go back home?"

"It's so outrageous! It's so outrageous!"

Before Mrs. Shan could say anything, the clan elder sitting next to her started shouting angrily, his beard trembling with anger, and he kept hitting the ground with the cane in his hand, which showed that he was mad.

"He is a major general, why doesn't he stay in the barracks and lead his troops to chase the rebels? That's the Northwest Army! Who is Qian Qizhi? He is a notorious ruthless man. Even Marshal Meng fell to him. The major general has only fought a few battles!"

This is because Shan Yuanming is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.

Mrs. Shan lowered her head, as if she didn't hear the elder's words. She held her handkerchief to the corners of her eyes and rolled her eyes at an angle where the elder couldn't see.

  Shan Yuanming is one of their own now. These old guys who rely on their age and seniority to become rich and powerful now rely on General Shan. What qualifications do they have to judge here? Don't they have any idea in their mind?

No wonder General Shan ignored them when he was still alive. He was overreaching.

On the surface, Madam Shan is just a woman in the inner house who knows nothing about marching and fighting. He is a fake and cannot show off too much!

"What do the generals of Huzhou do? Why don't they go after the Northwest Army? If the Major General wants to go, don't they know how to stop him? If something happens to the Major General, can they take the responsibility?"

The elder chattered on and on for a long time, all he said were accusations and scoldings, nothing useful.

"The young general can't find anyone, and the general in the military camp doesn't listen to us. The army from the north is about to attack. What should we do now?" asked the elder, worried about his own safety.

  What else can I do?

"Continue to send more people to search! We must find him. Where could such a big man and so many soldiers go? If they can't find him in Huzhou, go to Kunzhou or other states. It's not like they can't find him in heaven, so how can they not find him? If they can't find him, don't come back!"

The hot-tempered elder roared.

The servant responded timidly.

"Madam, think carefully, is there any other way to contact the Major General? Or did the Major General tell you before he left?

You also saw that once the general left, our Shan family is in a precarious situation! If you can contact the major general, ask him to come back quickly! If it's too late, Shangzhou will no longer be our Shan family's Shangzhou.

Shangzhou is the ancestral foundation of our Shan family, conquered by our ancestors generation after generation. If we lose it in our hands, how can we face our ancestors in the future? "Mrs. Shan looked reluctant, then thought about it and said, "Well, let me think about it. Yuanming said too much when he went out that day. It has been a long time, and I don't remember what he said.

I don't know if he said it or not. I need to think about it carefully. I don't know if it can be believed. The elders have been waiting for a whole day. Why don't we go back and rest first? Send someone to inform the elders when there is news."

I'm getting old, I just can't stand it anymore! This is the only way.

"Then it's hard work for you."

The elders of the clan sighed and left. They still had to keep looking for the person and could not put all their hopes on Mrs. Shan.

Well, we also have to visit the general who guards Shangzhou.

  Qingyun, in the big tent

All the generals were here, discussing how to march into Shangzhou.

Shangzhou is the Shan family's base camp. Whether in terms of military strength or generals, it is not comparable to other states, and it is not so easy to capture.

A forceful attack will definitely not work, as it will cost a lot of manpower and money, and result in heavy losses, so it is not cost-effective. The only way is to use wits to defeat them.

Everyone was discussing how to defeat the enemy cleverly and offering suggestions.

Qingyun glanced at the generals and his eyes fell on Shan Yuanming again.

During this period, this kid followed them to fight everywhere in Kunzhou, and his brutality was comparable to that of Black Bear and Mad Wolf. I just don't know if he still remembers his identity as a major general.

Shan Yuanming is much stronger than Hei Xiong, Po Jun and Qi Sha. Not only is he proficient in military tactics and good at naval battles, he also has good knowledge and a flexible mind. More importantly, he is able to humble himself and get along well with Tian Duoliang and others.

He is a rare and powerful general.

"Yuanming, what are your plans?"

News came from Shangzhou that the Shan family had found out that the major general had gone to Huzhou, and sent someone to take General Shan back.

Unfortunately, the people of the Shan family didn’t know that Shan Yuanming had long left Huzhou, so it would be a wasted trip if they went there because they wouldn’t be able to pick him up.

If Shan Yuanming wanted to go back, the Shan family had just left Huzhou a few days ago, so it was still in time for him to leave. He could take a detour and meet up with them before the Shan family entered Shangzhou.

Qingyun is not an ungrateful person. Shan Yuanming has helped them a lot. Let's not talk about the Shan family for now. Shan Yuanming's mother is still in Shangzhou! He can ignore the life and death of the Shan family, but he can't ignore the life and death of his mother.

  Although Mrs. Shan was taken away and hidden by her people, the one in the Shan family mansion was a fake. Shan Yuanming would definitely be worried without seeing the person in person!

Shan Yuanming raised his head and looked at the excessively young man in front of him. Such a weak man was actually the overlord who dominated the north and made Duke Zhou surrender voluntarily.

According to the information he secretly gathered, Duan Jiaxu and Tan Linyu were also defeated by him. He also annihilated a million Northwest Army troops and forced Qian Qizhi to retreat step by step and flee in embarrassment.

The southwest and the north are already the territories of the general, and most of the Central Plains are also his. The northern army is still sweeping across other states and counties in the Central Plains.

Qian Qizhi of the Northwest seems to have a strong army, but in a battle with the Northern Army, he killed a million people. It is estimated that it will not be long before the Northwest Army will suffer the same fate as Duan Jiaxu and Tan Linyu.
