Chapter 475 Terrifying Killing Intent

Feng Tai sat there with a leisurely attitude, looked at Xu Yu with a light smile and said, "Wei Guogong invited our family here today, is there something wrong?"

As the person who supervised Nanjing for the emperor, Feng Tai was naturally not an ordinary person.

You must know that with Feng Tai's identity and status, if he is willing, he can even compete with Xu Yu for the right to speak in Nanjing.

After all, what Feng Tai represented was today's emperor, and what Xu Yu represented was the honorable nobles who were stationed in Nanjing. If there were some ambitious left-behind eunuchs sitting in Nanjing, there would inevitably be conflicts between the two parties.

Fortunately, Feng Tai didn't have too much ambition, so after arriving in Nanjing, he spent more time indulging in pleasure, but he didn't intend to compete with Xu Yu for the right to Nanjing.

If it was not for Xu Yu's invitation this time, Feng Tai might not have appeared in Wei Guogong's mansion.

Looking at Feng Tai's leisurely appearance, Xu Yu couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart, although Feng Tai didn't intend to compete with him for power and profit in Nanjing, which allowed him to have extraordinary influence in Nanjing City, which was very important to him. Naturally, this is a good thing.

If you really want to talk about it, this is not a good thing for Xu Chu.

After all, why did the royal family send confidant internal eunuchs to sit in the city of Nanjing and give them extremely high rights, just to check and balance them, the nobles and officials of Nanjing city.

It turned out that Feng Tai was lucky, he came to Nanjing City, and he didn't intend to fight for power with them. If this was reported to the emperor, who knows what the emperor would think.

If it was the case in the past, that would be fine, but who made the situation a little different now.

In particular, King Ning's rebel army is just outside Nanjing City, and King Ning is still wooing many local tyrants and officials in the Jiangnan area, and even many nobles and officials in Nanjing City.

It is conceivable that under such circumstances, if Feng Tai can stand up, the pressure on him who stays behind in Nanjing will be lessened. After all, if something really happens, there will be someone who can share the responsibility with him, right? .

Just like the former Dingyanghou Cui Ling and others colluded with King Ning to open the city gate, intending to sacrifice the city of Nanjing. Fortunately, they shattered the conspiracy of Cui Ling and others to keep Nanjing city.

Otherwise, if Cui Ling and others really succeeded, it would be fine if they, the nobles and officials in the city, chose to surrender to King Ning, but if they didn't want to surrender to King Ning, then they would have to bear the loss of Nanjing responsibility.

At this time, the importance of having someone to share the responsibility with is suddenly highlighted.

So this time Xu Yu received the news about King Ning's movements, so he directly sent someone to invite Li Huan and Feng Tai to the mansion to discuss together.

If there is one more person, if there is a problem in the future, one more person will share the responsibility with him.

At this moment, after hearing Feng Tai's words, various thoughts flashed in Xu Yu's mind, and he said with a slight smile: "Don't worry, Chief Supervisor Feng, the champion will arrive later, it's not too late!"

Feng Tai frowned, and took a deep look at Xu Yu.

Feng Tai is certainly not a fool to be able to sit in the position of the left-behind eunuch in Nanjing. If he didn't have the dim sum machine, he would have died in the palace long ago.

Feng Tai could somewhat guess the purpose of Xu Wu's invitation to come this time.

To be honest, as far as Xu Yu could receive the news, with Feng Tai's ability and so many eunuchs under him, it was impossible for Feng Tai not to notice even a little trouble.

If he were to do other things, with Feng Tai's slippery temperament, he might not be able to say anything, even if Xu Yu sent someone to invite him, he would find a reason to shirk.

But what happened this time was extraordinary, Feng Tai knew very well that sometimes he absolutely cannot back down, but if he takes a step back, there will be two endings.

When Xu Yu and Feng Tai were meditating, footsteps came from outside, and Li Huan's figure appeared and strode into the study.

Xu Yu hurriedly got up and greeted him with a smile: "The champion is coming, I am far away from welcoming you, please forgive me!"

Feng Tai also got up and said to Li Huan with a complimenting face: "Our family has met the Champion, and Brother Gao is right. The Champion is indeed a rare freshman in a hundred years in my Ming Dynasty."

It was the first time Feng Tai and Li Huan met, but Feng Tai mentioned Gao Feng when he opened his mouth, making it clear that he was showing his identity and position to Li Huan.

Li Huan naturally knew Feng Tai. Hearing Feng Tai's words, he nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Supervisor Feng was joking, and Mr. Li often hears the name of Superintendent Feng mentioned by Brother Gao."

After some courtesies, several people took their seats, and Xu Pengju, who was standing beside him, stepped forward to pour tea for them.

At this time, there was no one else in the study except for a few people, not even anyone near the study.

Li Huan put down the teacup in his hand, looked up at Xu Chu and said: "The old man hastily invited Li to come, is there something important?"

Feng Tai also cooperated with Li Huan, and his eyes fell on Xu Yu.

At this time, Xu Wu looked straight, looked at Li Huan and Feng Tai and said, "According to the latest news, King Ning used some means to persuade many powerful locals in the south of the Yangtze River. Tens of thousands of horses are now rushing to Nanjing City in mighty force, and they may appear outside the city within a few days."

Li Huan had already known the news in advance. Hearing Xu Yu's words at this time, Li Huan seemed quite calm, but nodded slightly and said: "Li also just learned the news. I don't know how the old Duke will respond to this strategy?"

Li Huan is in charge of the Jinyiwei. If it is said that these things are not a secret, after all, so many people are involved, and so many people are mobilized and gathered. If the Jinyiwei is not aware of it, Xu Yu will not believe it.

Therefore, Xu Wei was not surprised that Li Huan knew the news. It would be really strange if Li Huan didn't know.

Xu Wu obviously had his own ideas, so when Li Huan asked, Xu Wu said calmly: "Since the Champion has opened his mouth, then I will tell you my humble opinion!"

Speaking of which, Xu Yu said solemnly: "There are more than 20 rebels outside the city, but they were charged and killed by the champion before, so that the morale of the rebels plummeted. These days, King Ning's rebels have not taken the initiative to attack the city. It is obviously because of the lack of morale of the rebels, but if the powerful people from those places come to join the rebels of King Ning, the number of rebels of King Ning will suddenly expand to [-]. At that time, I am afraid that the morale of the rebel army will rise, and the city of Nanjing will bear the great pressure of hundreds of thousands of troops attacking the city."

Speaking of this, Xu Yu paused for a moment, glanced at Li Huan and Feng Tai, and said solemnly: "With the current defenders of Nanjing City, if King Ning's rebels attack regardless of the cost, I'm afraid they will die." There is a worry that the city will be destroyed!"

As a stay in Nanjing, and also in charge of the military and horse power in Nanjing, it can be said that no one knows the real situation of the soldiers and horses in Nanjing city better than Xu Yu.

It is precisely because Xu Chu knew the specific situation of the soldiers and horses in Nanjing City, Xu Chu became worried when he knew that the number of King Ning's rebels outside the city was likely to double and their morale recovered.

After all, Feng Tai was just a servant. Feng Tai didn't understand such important military affairs at all, but he could also hear the worry in Xu Yu's words.

In fact, when he knew that the number of rebels outside the city was about to skyrocket to more than [-], Feng Tai couldn't help showing a bit of panic on his face.

That's more than [-] rebels, and how many people in Nanjing are worthy of a battle.

Well, I dare not say too much, at least according to the information Feng Tai has, it is not bad that Nanjing City can gather [-] soldiers and horses.

Originally, Jiangnan has been in peace for a hundred years, and has never experienced any wars. Even the local guards under the command of the Governor's Mansion under Nanzhili have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, but this is just a number on the books.

Anyone who is not a fool knows that it is delusional to want these local guards to recruit tens of thousands of horses.

Not to mention that some officials of the guard directly led their troops to join the rebel army of King Ning, so now that the number of soldiers and horses in Nanjing is full, it is already the limit to have [-]-[-].

There was a gap of nearly ten times between 5 and 30 rebels outside the city, Feng Tai couldn't help looking at Li Huan.

At this moment, Feng Tai didn't trust Xu Yu very much. Based on Feng Tai's understanding of these nobles, if it really came to a critical juncture, these nobles might not dare to sell them and the city of Nanjing to King Ning.

Others may vote for King Ning, but only he and Li Huan will not surrender, because in their identities, if they surrender to King Ning, they will definitely be killed by King Ning.

Therefore, Feng Tai believed that Li Huan was better than Xu Wu, and Xu Wu could clearly see the eagerness and anticipation on his face.

But Xu Wu didn't pay attention to Feng Tai, but looked at Li Huan like Feng Tai.

Under the eyes of several people, Li Huan's mouth turned up slightly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he said with a bit of disdain: "The rebels in the district are nothing more than chickens and dogs."

Between the words, Li Huan seemed to be full of confidence, Feng Tai's eyes lit up with the aura of treating hundreds of thousands of rebels as nothing, and even Xu Yu couldn't help but look at Li Huan in amazement.

Li Huan said with a smile: "He Ning Wang has the means to confuse people's hearts and gather a group of tyrants who don't know the heights of heaven and earth to help them. Once the imperial army arrives, the mere rebels can be wiped out."

A flash of light flashed in Xu Yu's eyes, he looked at Li Huan and said, "So, the soldiers and horses under the command of Champion Hou are about to arrive?"

After saying this, Xu Chu's originally worried heart was relieved. Calculating the time, the elite army of the imperial court who accompanied Li Huan out of Beijing should have arrived by now.

Sure enough, Li Huan nodded and said: "If there are no accidents, the [-] elite army will arrive tomorrow. No matter how many rebels King Ning gathers, there will be no trouble."

Feng Tai and Xu Yu looked at each other, they were completely relieved, and even showed a relaxed smile on their faces.

They know better than ordinary people what is called elite and what is called mob.

Not to mention anything else, but just saying that thousands of cavalry rushed into the formation before and smashed tens of thousands of rebels to pieces, which has fully exposed the vulnerability of the rebels.

It can be said that King Ning's rebels are really ostentatious, and they have a scary number, but when it comes to combat power, they are really vulnerable. Teacher, it's not surprising if you don't lose a lot.

After glancing at Feng Tai and Xu Yu, Li Huan said calmly, "You two don't need to worry. If you really want to talk about it, it's King Ning who should be worried."

Hearing what Li Huan said, Xu Chu laughed loudly and said: "What the champion said is true, the one who really needs to be worried should be King Ning and the anti-king."

As he said that, Xu Yu looked at Li Huan and said, "I don't know if there is anything I need to do. Just ask the champion to do it."

Li Huan pondered for a while and said, "There is really one thing to trouble you two to do."

The two of them were really not afraid of Li Huan arranging tasks for them. They must know that if they really put down the rebellion of King Ning this time, then they must have contributed.

It would be a bad idea if they didn't give any credit when they were claiming credit, so when they heard that Li Huan had arranged things for them, both of them looked at Li Huan expectantly.

Li Huan said solemnly: "One of the army came all the way, because of the haste march, a large amount of food and grass could not be brought, so I need two help to prepare food and fodder for the army."

After Li Huan finished speaking, Xu Yu and Feng Tai looked at each other, they both nodded without hesitation and said, "Although you can rest assured that you are the champion, the two of us will definitely prepare sufficient food and grass for the army."

With their connections and means, if they can't even do this, then Li Huan really has to wonder if they have ulterior motives.

Therefore, Li Huan was not at all surprised by the two's replies. He nodded slightly, and then said: "The second is that Li hopes that the two of you can use your connections to link the land of Jiangnan to King Ning for me. Find out all those people."

A fierce look flashed in Li Huan's eyes, he slapped the table with a slap, and said murderously: "This time, Li will definitely wash Jiangnan with blood and wipe out these rebels."

A murderous aura that seemed to be substantive pervaded from Li Huan's body, even Xu Yu, who had the courage to lead an army to charge into battle, suddenly felt a chill all over his body when he was rushed by Li Huan's evil aura, let alone Feng Tai People like Xu Pengju and Xu Pengju who have never experienced the baptism of killing, the two of them turned pale from fright.

Fortunately, the evil spirit on Li Huan's body was only fleeting, otherwise, Xu Pengju and Feng Tai would lose their composure under the impact of Li Huan's evil spirit.

Xu Wu coughed lightly, which brought Xu Pengju and Feng Tai back to their senses.

Li Huan didn't seem to notice the changes in the expressions of these people, but looked at Xu Chu and Feng Tai with deep eyes and said, "I wonder if the two of you would help Li find these rebels one by one?"
