Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 251 The Rise of the Killing Star

In the dark forest in the northern part of Luoshan Province, the temporary camp of the Linchuan Army was set up here. The vast forest provided a good hiding place for the soldiers of the Nanchuan Army, allowing them to avoid direct confrontation with the huge number of Dynasty troops. .

After the Battle of Changchuan River Valley, Lan Yu, the commander-in-chief of the dynasty's conquest troops, was very sad and angry. Not only did he lose nearly [-] elite soldiers of the Central Army, but he also lost Zhou Dingfang, the commander of the Major General of the First Army Corps of the Central Army.

As Sapphire's confidant general, Zhou Dingfang has always been his right-hand man. To Sapphire, Zhou Dingfang's death in battle was like breaking his arm, which made him heartbroken.

"Hao'er, the First Legion cannot be without a leader for a day. Before the approval of the military hall, you should temporarily act as the commander of the legion."

The First Army Corps of the Central Army is the main army under Lanyu's command, and the position of commander has always been held by Lanyu's confidant. Zhou Dingfang died in battle, so this position naturally fell into the hands of Haotian.

After Haotian heard Lan Yu's words, his heart was ecstatic, his face was flushed with excitement, he knelt down on both knees and kowtowed heavily to Lan Yu: "My child, thank you foster father for your cultivation!"

"Get up, you are all from your own family, so there is no need to be polite." Lan Yu waved his hand to make Haotian stand up, and said carefully: "Since the position of army commander is given to you, it is up to you whether you can sit still.

"Also, the princes are all eyeing the army now. You are now in charge of an army of 12 troops. There must be many people who will win you over in the future. Don't be obsessed with ghosts and follow the wrong people."

Haotian's originally excited mood was like pouring a basin of cold water after hearing Lanyu's words, and he immediately calmed down. Now he is in charge of a legion with a high position and power, and various interest disputes follow.

Haotian's expression turned serious, and he assured Lanyu: "Don't worry, Mr. Yifu! As long as I am Haotian, no one will try to reach into the First Legion. If anyone is uncomfortable, I, Haotian, don't mind killing chickens and monkeys!" There was a flash of hostility in Haotian's eyes.

Sapphire nodded in satisfaction: "Remember, I will support you in everything, so go."

"Hao'er leave." Haotian bowed and exited the tent.

After Haotian walked out of the tent, he looked at the gray sky and took a deep breath. As the youngest general of the Central Army, Haotian with the rank of major general finally got Lan Yu's approval and took charge of himself.

"I, Haotian, will make the world of Middle-earth tremble!" Haotian clenched his fists and shouted to the sky.

"Lieutenant General, His Royal Highness the Third Prince heard that you have been promoted to the head of the army, and invited you to a banquet."

Haotian's personal guard officer said and handed a red invitation card to Haotian.

Haotian glanced at the beautifully crafted red invitation card, and said tauntingly: "Our Third Highness is really powerful. I have just been promoted to the head of the army, and he has already prepared the banquet. I am afraid that this speed is too fast for us. His Majesty the Emperor can't compare."

"Hahaha, that's right, our Third Highness has always been fond of wine and sex, maybe he plays music every night, and maybe the banquet lasts forever."

"Major General, this is a weasel giving a New Year greeting to a chicken, so we must guard against it."

The generals around him have never had a good impression of this drunken prince. He is so rough in the army that he talks about it more presumptuously.

A general came over and asked, "Major General, shall we go or not?"

Haotian threw the invitation back into the hand of the guard officer and said: "Return the invitation to the Third Highness, just say that this general is in charge of the army for the first time, and the military affairs are busy, so the banquet will be skipped."

"Major General, in case the Third Highness is displeased..."

Haotian ignored the worries of the generals, got on his horse, and galloped towards the distance with his horse's belly clipped: "Go, let's go to our camp to see."

The generals looked at each other and understood each other. Haotian's attitude had already let them know that the First Legion was still Sapphire's Legion, and it would be futile for Prince Long Rui to intervene this time.

The prince Long Rui was originally a playboy, eating, drinking and having fun, fond of wine and beauties, he had a bad reputation both in the market and in court.

Although now there are mysterious black-robed aides to advise and gradually win the favor of Emperor Long Yuan, both the generals in the army and the important officials in the court are holding a wait-and-see attitude towards Long Rui, and they are not very optimistic about his fight for the big position.

Although the important ministers were not optimistic about Long Rui, Long Rui was bound to win the Ninth Five-Year Supreme position. Under the control of the black-robed staff, he bought officials wantonly and joined the army, and he already had a lot of influence.

However, Long Rui's foundation is too shallow after all, military bosses like Lan Yu simply disdain him, and even Haotian also ignores Long Rui.

"Your Highness, General Haotian has rejected your invitation."

The black-robed staff put the returned invitation on the table and said blankly.

Long Rui slammed his fist on the table, his face was livid, he grabbed the wine glass beside the table and took a sip of wine, he was choked and coughed because he was too anxious.

"I knew that they didn't take me seriously!" Long Rui roared angrily, smashed the wine glass on the ground and overturned the table.

The black-robed staff saw the angry Long Rui, with a pale face covered under the black robe, expressionless: "Your Highness, a little intolerance can lead to a big conspiracy. With the support of our Hanhai Empire, that position will always be yours."

Long Rui calmed down after hearing what the black-robed staff said, and said through gritted teeth: "One day I will make them pay the price!"

"At that time, you can do whatever you want, Your Highness, this world is yours." The black-robed staff echoed with a terrifying laugh.

Hearing the comfort from the black-robed staff, Long Rui's furious mood gradually calmed down. With strong external support, what are his imperial brothers?

Long Rui calmed down, returned to his seat, sat down and ordered: "Since this Haotian is ignorant of current affairs, then you can't blame me for being unkind, and send someone to inform Deputy Commander Liu and Deputy Commander Zhang to give me control Hold on, let Haotian be the commander of the short army!"

After Zhou Dingfang, Major General of the First Corps of the Central Army, died in battle, Long Rui happened to be in the army. Under the advice of the black-robed staff, he quickly attacked and used the temptation of beauty and power to win the favor of the two deputy commanders of the First Corps. allegiance.

One of the two deputy army commanders was greedy for beauty, and the other was dissatisfied with serving as a deputy after following Lan Yu in the Southern and Northern Wars. Under the targeted win-win of the black-robed staff, the two quickly joined Long Rui's command.

These two deputy army chiefs are not like the military generals like Sapphire. At that time, no matter which prince ascends the throne, he will need to win over the military generals like Sapphire.

In the entire dynasty army, there are hundreds of people with the rank of deputy legion like them. If they want to get ahead, they can only fight hard and join a certain prince. .

After Haotian left the Sapphire Army tent, he didn't stop at all. He took the guards and generals straight to the First Legion's garrison, hoping to quickly grasp the troops, make meritorious deeds in the upcoming battle, and prove his ability.
