Linjiang City.

Half a month has passed since the last battle with the Southern Allied Forces.

20 Qing troops recuperated here.

Due to the large number of coalition forces in the south, among them there are 60 to 40 disciples of the Beggar Sect, plus the White Lotus Sect, Tiandihui, Taiping Sect, Shenlong Sect and other major sects, the number of coalition troops exceeds one million, so the Qing court also sent a large number of troops to the south, a total of [-] troops.

Of the 40 troops, 30 of them were brought by Zheng Keshuang, the king of Yanping County who was originally in charge of the southern war.

The remaining [-] came from Zheng Keshun, the reinforcement brought by Nine Gate Admiral Ordo.

But after dozens of wars, of the 40 Qing troops, only 20 are left.

In terms of numbers, although they cannot be compared with the southern allied forces, there is still a big difference between the regular army and the mud legs, especially the tens of thousands of beggars in the allied army, most of whom are ordinary people who can't even eat enough.

This kind of person is basically sent to death when he goes to the battlefield.

Therefore, compared with the southern coalition forces, the 20 troops of the Qing court still have an absolute advantage.

The only thing that needs to be resolved at the moment is the Heavenly Man of the White Lotus Sect.

As long as they get rid of them, or only need to drag the gods of the White Lotus Sect, the 20 Qing army will surely win the battle and completely break up the anti-thief alliance in the south.

Zheng Keshuang and others obviously understood this truth.

Therefore, after half a month of recuperation, a group of generals gathered together again to discuss the matter of going south to attack.

at this time.

City Lord's Mansion.

Wearing a red python robe, although he looked extremely young, Chen Jialuo, the king of Pingnan with extraordinary bearing, sat in the main seat.

The next one is Zheng Kesong, King of Yanping County, who is also wearing a python robe, and the chief expert under Zheng Keshun's command, Feng Xifan, 'One Sword Without Blood'.

Underneath is Erdo, the admiral of the Nine Sects, who is wearing the admiral's costume and has a cold expression, as well as the generals in the army.

Priorities are clear.

"My lord, the army has been recuperating for half a month, and it has almost recovered. Now that the armaments are all in order, it's time to go south in one go and wipe out the gang of rebels!"

Er Duo cupped his hands towards Chen Jialuo.

"Yeah, I'm almost done with self-cultivation, it's time to go south and attack those rebels!"

"My lord, let's send troops!"

"The last general will second the proposal!"

"The last general also agrees to send troops!"

The rest of the generals spoke one after another.

Zheng Keshun didn't speak, but looked at Chen Jialuo with meaningful eyes.

To be honest, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the Pingnan King who came by air.

An anti-thief leader suddenly became a royal blood, was named a prince, and even climbed on top of him, taking away his military power. It would be strange if he could be convinced.

So since Chen Jialuo came to power, although he didn't dare to oppose Chen Jialuo openly, he has been playing tricks on Chen Jialuo secretly.

Including this dispatch of troops, he secretly instructed Ordo to propose it.

Because he always felt that Chen Jialuo had been stalling for time and didn't want to send troops.

Although he didn't know the reason, as long as it was something Chen Jialuo didn't want to do, he would force Chen Jialuo to do it.

Hence the scene at this time.

Sure enough, when he heard that everyone was going to send troops to the south, Chen Jialuo's expression turned a little ugly.

His current position in the Qing Dynasty is very embarrassing.

He was regarded as a traitor in the Jianghu, and the court also looked down on him. Even his master, Tianchi strange man Yuan Shixiao, was dissatisfied with him.

The reason why Yuan Shixiao shot last time was mainly because of him.

Because the Heavenly Man of the White Lotus Sect wanted to kill him at that time, and he was Yuan Shixiao's only direct disciple, Yuan Shixiao didn't want the inheritance to be shattered, so he rescued him at a critical moment.

But if he wanted Yuan Shixiao to take the initiative to deal with the coalition forces in the south, Yuan Shixiao would never agree.

Otherwise, why would he not want to send troops to destroy the anti-thief coalition army, so as to gain a firm foothold in the Qing Dynasty?
Heart is not cruel, stand unsteady.

Now that he has become a traitor, there is only one way to go to the end.

He used to have no choice, but now he just wants to be his own king of Pingnan.

It's a pity that God didn't want it.

Yuan Shixiao was unwilling to make a move, because they would definitely not be able to stop that heavenly man from the White Lotus Sect.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Jialuo said:

"With the current strength of our army, this group of rebels can be easily defeated. There is no need to be so anxious..."

Before the words fell, Erdo suddenly said:
"Since the lord has said that with the strength of our army, we are not afraid of these rebels, so why are we still reluctant to send troops?"

With that said, Erdo squinted at Chen Jialuo:
"Could it be that the prince is still thinking about his old relationship with these rebels and doesn't want to send troops?"

"What did you say?!"

"Bold! How dare you slander the prince!"

Hearing this, the leaders of the Red Flower Society who came with Chen Jialuo were furious immediately, and stood up and glared at Erdo.

"The governor is speaking, so there is no place for you to intervene!"

Er Duo was happy and fearless, stood up suddenly, and coldly swept towards the leaders of the Red Flower Society.

"A thief is a thief, don't think that now that you put on an official uniform, you can be compared with the governor!"

As if thinking of something, Er Duo cupped his hands towards Chen Jialuo, with an 'apology' on his face, and said: "I'm sorry, my lord, I didn't mean you."

It's okay if you don't explain it, he explained something specially, but Chen Jialuo's face became even uglier.

But he didn't say anything, just glanced at Zheng Keshuang next to him.

He naturally knew that all of this was instructed by Zheng Keshuang.

Chen Jialuo snorted coldly, and said: "Now I am the commander-in-chief of the army, it is up to me to decide whether to send troops or not!"

"Hehe, the marshal is really a great official!"

Zheng Keshun smiled eccentrically and said, "But Marshal, don't forget the Regent's order. In the Qing Dynasty, it's not your turn to cover the sky with one hand!"

Chen Jialuo said coldly: "If you are not convinced, you can report to the Regent!"

Zheng Keshuang sneered and said, "If there is a chance, it will happen naturally."

"But the marshal should tell me why you don't want to send troops first. Could it be that the marshal can't command the celestial being in the army?"

Zheng Keshun obviously guessed Chen Jialuo's situation.

Chen Jialuo's face was ugly, and he was about to speak.

But at this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded outside:

"Where is Yuan Shixiao, get out and die!"

Under the blessing of internal strength, this voice quickly spread throughout Linjiang City.

"It's that celestial being from the White Lotus Sect!"

In the City Lord's Mansion, everyone was shocked.

Someone went out to take a look, and saw a figure in a Taoist robe standing in the sky above the sky. It was the god of the White Lotus Sect, Xu Hongru!
Everyone's expressions changed, they didn't expect this person to come again!
But Chen Jialuo was overjoyed.

He was worried that he couldn't ask his master to take care of this heavenly being of the White Lotus Sect, but he didn't expect him to come to him on his own initiative!
Chen Jialuo immediately turned to look at a certain location in the city, where his master Yuan Shixiao practiced.

really.

After a while.

Only a sigh sounded, and then a figure rose from a courtyard, looked at Xu Hongru, and sighed:
"As I said last time, I have no intention of meddling in this matter, so why do you want to come here?"

Xu Hongru sneered, and said: "Yuan Shixiao, you are so hypocritical, so hypocritical that even a cultivator like Pindao can't stand it!"

"You don't want to meddle in this matter, so just leave. Why do you have to stay in the Qing army?"

Yuan Shixiao was about sixty years old, with stubble all over his face, and looked quite lonely.

He sighed again and said, "I just want to protect my apprentice. The life and death of the Qing army has nothing to do with me."

Xu Hongru snorted coldly: "Your apprentice is a traitor, a running dog of the Qing court. What's the difference between you protecting him and him?"

"You traitor from the Central Plains, you are simply a Chinese!"

Xu Hongru directly cursed.

Yuan Shixiao's face turned pale, but he couldn't refute.

At this moment, Chen Jialuo suddenly said: "Old guy, I don't need you to teach me what my master does. It depends on your age. If you don't want to die, you should surrender as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you die, no one will collect your body!"

"Huangkou kid, are you looking for death?! The poor will help you first!"

Xu Hongru snorted coldly, waved his sleeves, and a thunderbolt appeared out of thin air, and fell straight towards Chen Jialuo.

Zheng Keshuang and the others changed their expressions, and hurriedly moved away to both sides, staying away from Chen Jialuo, for fear of being troubled by him.

But their worries are obviously unnecessary.

boom!
Before the thunderbolt landed, Yuan Shixiao appeared in mid-air, slapped it with a palm, and directly shattered the thunderbolt, then turned around and glared at Chen Jialuo:
"You... a villain!"

How could he not know that Chen Jialuo was forcing him to do it.

A flash of guilt flashed in Chen Jialuo's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He cupped his hands towards Yuan Shixiao and said, "Master, please help me get rid of this person!"

Xu Hongru sneered: "Yuan Shixiao, what a good apprentice you have taken!"

Yuan Shixiao's face was gloomy, he didn't answer, but slowly closed his eyes, and said: "Your Excellency, please leave, with me here, you can't hurt anyone."

Just as Xu Hongru was about to speak, a figure had slowly descended from the clouds, walked to Xu Hongru's side, looked down at Yuan Shixiao who was standing in front of Chen Jialuo, and said lightly:
"You're pretty damn polite."

Two angels!

The expressions of Chen Jialuo and the others changed drastically.

Yuan Shixiao also narrowed his pupils slightly, looked solemnly at the figure in the silver-white python robe, and said in a deep voice, "Who is your Excellency?"

"This seat is the owner of the Daming West Factory, Yuhuatian!"

Yuhuatian said indifferently. (end of this chapter)
