Chapter 46: A lot of resentment(1/3)
Nangong Ye turned the wine glass in his hand and pondered for a moment with a slightly worried look on his face. He turned his head and glanced at Zhang Kuang, Wan Yan and others.
"Brothers, this guy hasn't sent any messages to our Golden Eagle for several days in a row.
Tell me, is this kid in trouble or something unexpected happened?"
Upon hearing Nangong Ye's words, Yunchong, Zhang Kuang, Hu Yanyu, and Yeluha all changed their faces slightly, and subconsciously glanced at each other.
Yun Chong took a sip of his drink, frowned slightly in silence for a moment, and cast his eyes hesitantly on Nangong Ye.
"Brother Nangong, you can't, you have to know that this guy has an army of 100,000 in his hands!
I really can't imagine what kind of troubles and mishaps he could encounter with a hundred thousand troops at his disposal."
Wanyan Chizha casually changed his posture and gently took a puff of the cigarette.
"Nangong Shuai, Brother Yun is right.
With one hundred thousand soldiers and horses at hand, any trouble is not considered a trouble, and any accident is not an accident.
One hundred thousand soldiers and horses, not to mention the rebels on the Persian side, even if you look at any kingdom in the West, they are an existence that can sweep away invincible opponents in the world."
Zhang Kuang raised the wine jar and took a few sips of fine wine before taking a deep breath of alcohol.
"That's not necessarily true."
As soon as arrogant words came out, everyone present turned their attention to him one after another.
"Zhang Shuai?"
"Zhang Shuai?"
"Old Zhang, do you have anything to say?"
"Brother Zhang, do you have any different opinions?"
Zhang Kuang looked at the people who were all looking at him, and casually raised his palm to wipe the wine from his gray beard a few times.
"Brothers, brothers, I have to say something that is not very pleasant to hear. We can't always think on the bright side!
It is true that this guy in Dingbang has an army of 100,000 in his hands, and they are all top-notch elite soldiers and generals.
However, there is one thing you must not forget.
The 100,000 troops in the hands of this guy from Dingbang are certainly elite soldiers and strong generals, and they are certainly as powerful as a rainbow.
However, they are all new recruits who have never been on the battlefield.
All of us are old men who have experienced hundreds of battles. Don’t you know the difference between new recruits and veterans?
No matter how elite the recruits are, they are still recruits. If they have not been on the battlefield, they have never been on the battlefield.
For new recruits, it is difficult to adapt to the level of killing for the first time.
The old soldier is different. As long as he goes to the battlefield, he will take action without hesitation.
Because the old soldier knew in his heart that either you or I would die on the battlefield, so there was nothing to hesitate about.
I'm not afraid that this guy Dingbang and his 100,000 soldiers will become red-blooded on the battlefield.
I'm afraid that they will be merciful and be killed by the enemy.
Before this boy from Dingbang led his troops to fight against the rebellion in Persia, I suggested more than once that five or ten thousand elite soldiers should be sent to assist them.
However, this boy Dingbang always disagrees with my suggestion.
He insisted on leading 100,000 new soldiers to go out alone to help the Persians put down the rebellion.
It's fine now. I haven't sent any letters to us for seven or eight days.
Now, we don't know whether this kid is in trouble now.
It’s really harmful for us here to worry about him for no reason.”
As soon as Zhang Kuang's slightly unpleasant words came out, everyone present couldn't help but fell silent.
Wanyan Chizha looked at the people who were all silent. After leaning over the table leg and knocking out the ashes from the smoke pot, Wanyan Chizha cheerfully picked up the wine glass and gestured to the people around him.
"Come on, come on, have a drink."
"cheers."
"Drink together, drink together."
"Do it first to show respect."
After Hu Yanyu drank all the wine in the glass, he picked up the pot and filled himself up with another glass of wine.
"Brothers Cheng Kai, brothers Fuji, brothers Ning Chao, and brothers Chu Jing.
You four brothers and Brother Duan are good brothers who share the same love as brothers.
Now, the boy Dingbang is the nephew that the four of you brothers regard as his own. Do you four brothers have any opinion on the current situation of the boy Dingbang?"
Seeing Hu Yanyu suddenly asking about several of them, the four brothers Cheng Kai, Feng Buer, Ning Chao and Chu Jing looked at each other instinctively.
Arrogant, Nangong Ye and the others also looked at Cheng Kai and Ning Chao brothers with curious expressions.
Cheng Kai drank the wine in his glass in one breath, frowned slightly and let out a sigh of relief.
"Brother Huyan, this kid from Dingbang is not the kind of arrogant person.
Since he dared to choose to lead his troops alone, he must have a reason.
As for why he didn't send us a letter to report that he was safe for many days, I think he must have been delayed due to some things."
With Cheng Kai taking the lead, Ning Chao, Feng Buer, and Chu Jing all started to agree.
"Brother Huyan, Brother Cheng is right.
We brothers have watched this child Dingbang grow up. According to our brothers’ understanding of his character, he is not the kind of person who is aimless.
Since he dares to send troops to Persia to quell the rebellion on his own, he must be sure of it."
"Brother Huyan, I have the same idea.
To be honest, considering the nature of this kid, I quite trust him."
"Brother Huyan, brothers, the one hundred thousand troops in the hands of this guy Dingbang are indeed new soldiers who have never been on the battlefield.
However, I don’t know if you have noticed that the momentum of the 100,000 recruits he has is somewhat different from the recruits we have seen before.”
Nangong Ye was silent for a moment thoughtfully, then smiled and nodded.
"How should I put it, it is indeed a little different.
But what exactly is different about it, I couldn’t tell for a while.”
Hearing Nangong Ye's echoing words, Zhang Kuang, Wanyan Chiezha and the others narrowed their eyes with thoughtful expressions on their faces.
Cheng Kai looked at Zhang Kuang, Yunchong and others with thoughtful expressions on their faces. They skillfully lit a pot of tobacco and took a long puff happily.
"Brother Huyan, brothers, there is one thing you probably don't know yet, right?"
Arrogant, Wanyan Chiezha and others looked stunned and looked at Cheng Kai with doubtful eyes.
"Um?"
"Um?"
"What? What happened?"
"Huh? Brother Cheng, what's going on?"
When Cheng Kai saw Zhang Kuang and the others looking at him with confusion, he chuckled and turned around and blew out a puff of smoke.
"Brothers, this guy from Dingbang has a book of war in his hand.
It was given to him by His Majesty himself before he led his army to the expedition.
The content of the military book is your Majesty’s experience written one by one based on all the large and small battles he has personally experienced in the past twenty years of conquering the south, the north, and the east and the west.”
As soon as Cheng Kai finished speaking, everyone's expressions changed.
Immediately, Zhang Kuang, Nangong Ye and others sighed softly.
"What? Is this happening?"
"This! This! Why have I never seen this guy Dingbang mention this before?"
