Chapter 01: Can't Breathe Out
Why was Wukong so angry about Kou Zhong's self-decision and direct showdown with Liu Heida?
The reason is very simple, it is just that there are six words that are not organized and disciplined!
In Qin Qiong's camp, the highest decision-maker was Wukong, followed by Pei Xingjian, and then Guo Zihe and Qin Qiong. The four of them had not spoken yet and did nothing. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, the two bean sprout brothers, were bold and showdowns with Liu Heida, and they also shook Wukong's identity directly.
In front of so many people and Liu Heida, the second in command of the Xia Kingdom, let Wukong's uncle's face... be where to put it?
This is a very embarrassing thing. Liu Heida, the originally deceived enemy, saw a messy joke in vain!
Therefore, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were not beaten to death on the spot, and that was already the mercy of Wukong.
However, this matter is nothing to say, big or small, but it’s just a shameful moment. Moreover, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling’s approach... is not wrong.
Except for Wukong alone, most of the people sitting there were actually very clear in their hearts. As Xu Ziling said, from the moment Liu Heida entered Qinqiong's camp, he never let go of his guard and was not fooled at all.
Having said nothing or done nothing does not mean that Liu Heida is just a fool, but it's not time for everyone to show off.
Wukong's ultimate goal is to drag the battle for at least a year, so he doesn't care how Liu Heida thinks or does it. As long as the other party doesn't show off, then he doesn't mind playing with the other party forever.
Now, he secretly beat Ruyi’s little plan and directly smashed Kou and Xu to Lili. How could Wukong not be angry?
At this moment, everyone present looked at Kou Zhong, waiting for his self-disclosure, but after that, it was almost a minute after that, Kou Zhong was still..., without saying a word!
So, just as Yun Yuzhen was trembling and crying silently, Guo Zihe was expressionless, Qin Qiong frowned and thought hard, and Wukong was ready to beat Kou Zhong wildly, Pei Xingjian sighed helplessly, and finally spoke slowly.
"Lord, although Kou Zhong was adept at the right time, he forced himself to do so for the sake of the overall situation. Liu Heida decided to directly attack the two armies, which was actually to test the loyalty of the entire southern line on the battlefield. Therefore, our only way to solve it is to let Zhang Shanan and Luo Shixin avoid fighting. Otherwise, a 1.5 million army directly attacked, and no matter how careful they were, at least casualties would be... more than 100,000 people." After saying slowly, Pei Xingjian secretly glanced at Wukong, and saw that he was still angry, and continued helplessly.
"Of course, as long as the arrangement is made, there will definitely be no Dasui soldier among the 100,000 soldiers who were killed and injured. However, even so, Liu Heida will definitely see the flaw. If he had always pretended to be unaware and constantly provoked our own people to fight their own people. Then, at most, after two battles, the discerning people in the world will definitely see the flaws. Therefore, although Kou Zhong's approach was impulsive,... was not wrong!" After gritting his teeth and saying this, Pei Xingjian knelt down and bowed loudly to Wukong and begged.
"I beg the lord to let you go and forgive Kou Zhong and others!" As Pei Xingjian's shouts fell, all the generals present knelt down... and loudly helped Kou Zhong plead with mercy.
When Wukong was obviously furious at this time, Pei Xingjian directly took the lead and helped Kou Zhong plead for mercy. It took a lot of courage to have a relationship that was extremely good.
Otherwise, if you want to change to an unrelated person, Pei Xingjian will be 100% and it will be impossible for him to make such a head.
Kou Zhong was kind to the Pei family, and he was Pei Xingyan's apprentice and friend. Therefore, when Kou Zhong was in trouble, Pei Xingjian had to extend his hand no matter what, and quickly grabbed Kou Zhong.
But Guo Zihe, Kou Zhong's adoptive father, is not easy to speak because his relationship is too close to Kou Zhong, so he speaks to help his adopted son plead with mercy. No matter how reasonable it is, it will inevitably make people feel that he is selfish and the reasons he speaks... are all partial!
In this way, the effect of those good reasons will be greatly reduced immediately. It would be better to say nothing, which would be more fair. If Wukong finally wants to deal with Kou Zhong, he will pretend to be pitiful and say that he has no complaints at all, that's it.
Of course, in the final analysis, if others have the ability to help Kou Zhong plead with mercy, it must be that Kou Zhong himself has no mistakes or is not very wrong. If Kou Zhong failed to rebellion, then no matter how many people stood up and pleaded with mercy, it would be..., without any use.
This is why Kou Zhong did not explain. Before he did this, he had already calculated the current situation and knew that he was... and there would be no problem!
What else can Wukong do in the face of so many people's pleas? He was not prepared to punish Kou Zhong and others heavily, and there was no reason to punish him severely. So, he held the handrail tightly and stared at Kou Zhong with gritted teeth for a while, Wukong still had to choose to compromise.
"Kou Zhong, I didn't hear your explanation, so... I'm very unsatisfied! But let's forget about this matter. For the sake of so many people pleading for you, it's all! Listen well, there's absolutely no next time. If you dare to act like you today, I'll kill you! Let Qin Qiong be the governor of the Southern Line, Guo Zihe, Pei Xingjian, and Wang Junkuo assist me together, and beat me a little more beautifully. Just like that!" After finishing angrily, Wukong stood up and walked towards the door with great force.
When he passed by Yun Yuzhen, Wukong suddenly heard it. After thinking for a while, he whispered: "Come with me." After that, he left the handsome tent directly.
As the saying goes, professional things need to be done by professionals. Anyway, after Kou Zhong did this, the overall situation has been completely decided. Apart from the 50,000 imperial guards left in Jincheng, the Xia Kingdom has no more available soldiers, and it is absolutely impossible to make any waves.
Since he has already won, how to do a great military exercise? Let's leave it to Qin Qiong and others. Wukong has long been tired of life in the military camp. It is time... it's time for him to leave.
Therefore, when Yun Yuzhen, who was anxious, walked into the Xiaojun tent timidly, Wukong poured her a cup of tea, pointed at the opposite side of him and said to her: "Sit down, you did nothing wrong. I was just angry with Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling." After saying it gently, he picked up his teacup and started to taste it.
