"General Ren!" In full view of everyone, Wu Siyuan sat next to Ren Ning.
"Long time no see," Ren Ning casually chatted with him, "What has General Wu been doing recently?"
"Nothing." Wu Siyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The weather is getting warmer, let's continue training new recruits."
"By the way. I would also like to thank your regiment for providing us with training venues and basic instructors."
Ren Ning shook his head with a strange expression.
"General Wu is joking. This is the Baekje Peninsula, and all the land belongs to you. We are the guests."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Li Chengde opposite.
"King Li, don't you know if what I said is right?"
Li Chengde nodded sarcastically, "That's what General Ren said."
"However, we, Baekje, are originally a vassal state of Yunchui. With your strong protection, we can live a stable life and avoid the invasion of Japanese pirates. Therefore, all Xingluo soldiers can treat this place as their own home."
Ren Ning snorted and twitched the corner of his mouth, "But this is not Yunchui's hometown after all, isn't it?"
As soon as these words came out, the hall, which was already audible, became even quieter.
Everyone looked at Ren Ning, who was sitting at the top, with evasive eyes.
Prime Minister Wang Mingzhi saw something was wrong in the atmosphere and quickly raised his glass.
"General Ren is in a high position, and it has been difficult for him to come to my capital. I am shining brightly. Come, come, come, let's all toast to General Ren."
He laughed.
"As we all know, Unchui is a famous place for food and wine. We have heard about it even as far away as Baekje. In previous years, there were even caravans coming all the way to sell wine."
"This is our local wine in Baekje. It may not be as good as Yunchui's, but it has a lingering aroma and an endless aftertaste after drinking it."
"General Ren, please!"
All the civil and military officials responded enthusiastically and raised their glasses one after another.
However, Ren Ning sat still, as if he didn't hear anything.
It wasn't until the Baekje officials stopped in embarrassment that he looked at Li Chengde opposite him expressionlessly.
"King Li, making wine requires a large amount of food. It seems that your country's food is very sufficient."
He changed the topic.
"In the past three or four years, I think our Xingluo Army and the nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Japanese Army have moved all the way from the mainland with their own food and grass. We are not afraid of life and death and are not afraid of the severe cold. We have devoted ourselves to resisting the Japanese pirates for you. There is no credit for it.
Hard work."
"Now that the land route is blocked, we don't have much food in hand. Why don't you share some for us?"
At this time, both Li Chengde and Wang Mingzhi suddenly felt that the wine glasses in their hands no longer smelled good.
"General Ren taught you a lesson." Li Chengde did not dare to follow Ren Ning's words and said sarcastically: "The Japanese pirates are still continuing to invade our country, Baekje, but we people are toasting and drinking in the rear. It is really inappropriate."
"Come here! Remove the alcohol and order the whole country to ban alcohol from now on."
After speaking, he winked.
All the civil and military officials put down their wine glasses together.
As for Ren Ning's request for food, everyone pretended not to have heard it.
Ren Ning did not pursue him relentlessly.
"His Majesty cherishes the friendship between the two countries. Hearing that Baekje was in trouble, he sent a large army to fight against the Japanese pirates together, so we came. But..."
Speaking of this, he raised his voice.
"But as I said before, Baekje is your land and your hometown after all, and it needs to be protected by you. Everyone, do you understand?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what Ren Ning wanted to say for a while. It took a while before everyone nodded one after another.
"clear."
Ren Ning nodded with satisfaction, and his eyes fell on Wu Siyuan, who was sitting upright next to him.
"General Wu, I hope that the situation during the Silong Island War last year will not happen again, otherwise we will evacuate Baekje."
"Remember, Ben will do what he says."
Everyone present was shocked and looked towards Wu Siyuan.
"What happened?" Someone couldn't help but shout.
"I do not know."
"Xilong Island is near the Yuanning Mountains, far away from the capital. How do we know this?"
…
cough!
An insider coughed slightly.
"Last year during the Battle of Xilong Island, Kudo Naoto had been fighting the East China Sea Barrier at sea, without any concern for the defense east of the Yuanning Mountains. At that time, General Ren sent a message to General Wu, asking him to attack the east coast with all his strength. However..."
Baekje did not dispatch any troops.
Wu Siyuan's face turned red and white, and he stood up with a sigh.
"General Ren, it is not that I am timid and unwilling to fight. It is because I am subject to too many constraints from all aspects. Although I am called a general guarding the gate, I cannot mobilize many troops at all."
"When I received the general's intelligence at that time, I immediately knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as the army in Yuanning Mountain was dispatched, it was very possible to recover the entire east coast. However, it backfired. There were too many generals who opposed sending troops, and I
In the end, I could only watch the fighter plane slip away..."
"It can be said that missing that opportunity is the thing I regret most in my life."
Ren Ning nodded expressionlessly.
"The opportunity to regain the entire east coast is gone. If you miss this opportunity, you will be dismissed from the army or even beheaded in the Starfall Legion."
Wu Siyuan understood that Ren Ning was helping him.
He quickly picked it up.
"General Ren, Baekje learned all his knowledge, writing and etiquette from Yun Chui, and military discipline is no exception. So I will now return to the capital and become an instructor for new recruits."
Ren Ning's face softened slightly, and his eyes fell on Li Chengde who looked annoyed across from him.
"King Li, if it weren't for those who controlled the sorcerer generals, the entire Baekje Peninsula might have returned to your embrace by now. You can't let them go so easily."
"Yes, yes!" Li Chengde's eyes flashed and he nodded repeatedly.
Ren Ning did not investigate whether he was sincere or not, and returned his eyes to the sumptuous banquet in front of him.
"Now that the weather has warmed up, the intelligence we have received shows that Kudang Naoto on the east coast is ready to move and is very likely to launch another attack on the Yuanning Mountains in the near future to open up a passage into the hinterland of Baekje."
"Everyone here must be very clear about what the consequences will be once they succeed."
All the civil and military officials in the hall looked stern and nodded.
After passing the Yunyeong Mountains, we are almost at the capital of Baekje.
By then, not only would the Japanese pirates besieging the city, but the land around the capital would also be unable to be cultivated, making life down the road even more difficult.
"It's good to be clear." Ren Ning didn't waste any words, "Your country's current generals stationed in the Yuanning Mountains have suffered repeated defeats, and they cannot be of great use. For the sake of your safety and mine, it is better to let General Wu go."
"This..." Li Chengde looked a little unhappy.
Just as he was about to speak, the Prime Minister Wang Mingzhi next to him took away the words.
"General, no matter whether you are in Yunchui or Baekje, the deployment of generals to lead the army is of great importance, so you must be cautious. General, please allow us to consider it carefully before making a decision."
"Consider it carefully and study it carefully?" Ren Ning looked at Wang Mingzhi with burning eyes, "Well, I will also go back and suggest that our general reconsider some things."
For example, evacuate this peninsula as soon as possible.
"As for this meal, I won't eat it. Please enjoy it slowly."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out with his bodyguard.
"General Ren, General Ren..."
Li Chengde was shocked.
He had never seen such a vigorous and resolute person, and he quickly asked someone to stop Ren Ning.
"Everyone is blocking the road," Ren Ning said in a sinister tone, "Are you going to put me under house arrest?"
"Bold!" Lei Er waved his hand, "Let's see who dares to be bold!"
The personal guards quickly drew their weapons and stood beside Ren Ning, looking around with murderous intent.
There is a tendency to start a fight if there is a disagreement.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Li Chengde quickly moved out of the way, "It is difficult for General Ren to reach my capital. I just want to entertain you and have no other intentions. Generals, please do not misunderstand me."
hehe.
Ren Ning smiled, "There is no need to entertain. You should still worry about the future of the front line and Baekje. Let's go!"
