Hearing Lin Aoxue's words, Yunyan didn't hesitate, turned around and walked into the medical hall, packed the necessary wound medicine, silver needles and other utensils into the medicine box, and then followed Lin Aoxue to the barracks.

Bei Chenlong sent heavy soldiers to guard the tent where the fifth prince was recuperating. There were more than a hundred people inside and outside. There were five checkpoints alone. Each checkpoint had to be identified, otherwise they would not be allowed to enter.

Fortunately, with Lin Aoxue leading the way, the two of them were not blocked on the way, and they arrived at the tent of the fifth prince smoothly. After Lin Aoxue passed the waist badge to the guards outside the tent, she led Yunyan into the tent.

Bei Chenlong didn't leave, he stayed in the fifth prince's tent, firstly because he was worried about further accidents, and secondly, he wanted to watch Yunyan heal the fifth prince's injury, so as to avoid any other troubles.

After Lin Aoxue brought Yunyan, Bei Chenlong waved her down. The Fifth Prince was seriously injured at the moment, and the fewer people staying in the tent, the better. Even if Bei Chenlong trusted Lin Aoxue, he still had to guard against her.

Before Lin Aoxue left, she took another look at Yunyan. Yunyan had already begun to diagnose and treat the fifth prince. She placed her two fingers on Bei Chenbo's wrist through a thin layer of underwear. Withdrew from the tent and went outside to guard.

Yunyan's medical skills are excellent, Lin Aoxue is not worried, what she is worried about is that even if the fifth prince is saved by Yunyan, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. A Yunyan with excellent medical skills can't bring any substantial help to the current situation in the northern border.

The fifth prince's injury was serious and dangerous, the military doctor refused to take action, so in the whole Xingbei Pass, except for Yun Yan, there was no one else who could save him.

However, even Yunyan, after examining the fifth prince's pulse and looking at his poisonous wounds, turned to Beichen and said:

"Folk girls are only [-]% certain."

Yun Yan said that she was [-]% sure, and the chance of saving her life was about [-]%, but even she was not [-]% sure, so it can be seen that the fifth prince's injury was indeed very serious.Bei Chenlong had no choice. Although his face was heavy, there was no hesitation in his eyes, and he said:

"Just do your best."

Yun Yan began to treat the fifth prince as she said, she first prescribed a prescription and asked Bei Chenlong to arrange for people to grab the medicine, Lin Aoxue who was waiting outside the camp was called in again.Bei Chenlong gave her the prescription, and asked another military doctor to go to the pharmacy together, making sure to gather all the medicinal ingredients as soon as possible and cook the medicine well.

Lin Aoxue led the order and went to get the medicine together with the old military doctor. There was no delay on the way. After grabbing the medicine, she decocted the medicine according to Yun Yan's instructions, and then returned to the tent with the hot soup.

Seeing Lin Aoxue coming in with the medicine, Bei Chenlong raised his head to confirm to Lin Aoxue:

"Is this wound medicine boiled under your supervision?"

Lin Aoxue nodded:

"Yes, the subordinate never left from the beginning to the end."

Only then was Bei Chenlong relieved, he hummed, and asked her to pass the soup to Yun Yan:

"Take it."

Lin Aoxue sent the decoction to Yunyan's side. Yunyan briefly tested the temperature, and asked Lin Aoxue to put down the decoction to dry for a while, and then helped her to lift the fifth prince up. She needed to give the fifth prince an injection to suppress the poison.

Lin Aoxue turned her head to ask Bei Chenlong for instructions, and Bei Chenlong waved her hand, asking her to obey Yunyan's words. Lin Aoxue saw that Beichenlong had given Yunyan the full power to heal the fifth prince, so she was relieved and did not hesitate to go to Yunyan's office immediately. With a gesture, he removed Bei Chenbo's coat.

Yunyan can do needles through the clothes without removing the inner layer of the clothes, which made Lin Aoxue secretly heave a sigh of relief.Yunyan asked Lin Aoxue to apply a black ointment on Bei Chenbo's forehead and the palms of both hands, then pinched the fifth prince's mouth open, and fed Bei Chenbo the colder soup bit by bit.

But people in a coma can't swallow on their own, and the process of feeding the medicine is quite complicated. When a bowl of soup comes down and flows down Beichenbo's mouth, more than half of the soup soaks into the pillow and bedding.

Regarding this, Yunyan didn't say much. After feeding the whole bowl of decoction, she took out her medical needle pouch and held the needle to detoxify Bei Chenbo.

The whole acupuncture process lasted about an hour. Bei Chenbo lay motionless on the bed, but hundreds of silver needles were pierced into his body, so densely packed that even Lin Aoxue felt chills in his heart when he saw it.

Fortunately, after an hour passed, the bruise on Bei Chenbo's face gradually faded, and the bruises on his chapped lips also faded a little. Yun Yan was relieved that his condition had obviously improved. It seemed that this time it should be Saved the precious life of the fifth prince.

She pulled out the silver needles and threw away all the blackened silver needles, then bowed to Bei Chenlong and said:

"His Royal Highness Fifth Prince's poisonous injury has improved. If there are no accidents, it will take five days to get rid of the remaining poison by giving the needle once a day. However, the little girl is not sure whether he can wake up."

Bei Chenlong went to the bed and took a look. He could tell whether Bei Chenbo's condition had improved, so he nodded and said:

"Well, it's hard work for Dr. Yun. Recently, I asked Dr. Yun to stay in the camp for a while. After the fifth prince recovers from his injuries, he will return to the medical hall."

Unmoved, Yun Yan bowed and saluted, and obediently agreed. Her heart was like a mirror, and she knew Bei Chenlong's intentions.

The Fifth Prince was assassinated, and the situation was serious. Even though Bei Chenlong had suppressed the news in time to prevent the news from leaking out, people in the barracks were still restless and panicked.Even though Yunyan was only a doctor, Bei Chenlong had to guard against it. He kept Yunyan in the barracks, which was actually equivalent to house arrest in disguise. If something happened to the fifth prince, it would be easier to hold him accountable.

Yun Yan understands this truth, and also knows that Bei Chenlong's suspicion is nothing to this extent. Since she agreed to come over to see the fifth prince's wound, she has already made plans to stay in the military camp for a while.

She bowed to Bei Chenlong and took her leave, Lin Aoxue also left the tent and returned to her residence.

Lin Aoxue complained about Bei Chenlong leaving Yunyan in the army, but Zai Yunyan told her that in this way, they could see each other often, which was a blessing in disguise. Lin Aoxue pondered for a long time before gradually letting go of her grudge and thinking It was indeed as Yun Yan said, and she was not so unhappy.

However, that night, loud horns sounded suddenly outside the pass, and one after another the horns advanced layer by layer from the distant sentries outside the pass, announcing the arrival of the enemy.

Bei Chenlong led all the generals to board the tower and looked outside the pass. The dust was flying, and the barbarians formed a phalanx. From a distance, they rushed towards Xingbei Pass under the moonlight. Roughly speaking, there are more than 15 soldiers and horses, and Bei Chenlong estimates that there are about [-].

This number is already equal to the number of troops stationed in Xingbei Pass. It seems that the barbarians have also counted their blood. They may even know about the changes in Xingbei Pass and want to take advantage of Beichenlong's exhaustion to deal with it and break the city in one fell swoop.

Bei Chenlong immediately ordered that the archers line up on the tower in three rounds, ready to resist the barbarians.

The barbarians didn't call out outside the tower, as if they had already calculated it, they rushed all the way towards the tower. On the way, they pulled out all the sentries outside Xingbei Pass with lightning speed. They were all wiped out, and they didn't even have time to call for help, so they died on the battlefield.

Under Beichenlong's order, the archers on the tower of Xingbeiguan released arrows rhythmically. Every time a wave of arrows was shot, a group of barbarians would be shot by the arrows and fall to the ground like broken sacks.

The casualties of the barbarians gradually intensified. As they approached Xingbei Pass, more and more barbarians fell and piled up on the way the barbarians attacked the city.But those bloodthirsty savages were completely indifferent. They stepped over the corpses of their companions without changing their expressions, and their forward speed did not slow down at all.

Although the arrows on the tower were very dense, when a round of arrow rain fell, nearly half of the barbarians rushing in the front row fell down.

But the barbarians charged quickly, and they quickly adjusted their formation. With a row of huge shields on their backs, they risked being stabbed into a sieve, and they just blocked the attack of the rain of arrows. The shifting gap continued to rush forward, and after losing thousands of troops, they finally succeeded in rushing to the bottom of the city tower.

The faces of the Xingbeiguan officers and soldiers stationed on the tower changed drastically. The barbarian attack was too fast. They seemed to be unafraid of death, and they followed one after another. Once someone fell, the people behind immediately filled the vacancy. The team always maintained the integrity of the formation. Greatly reduced the casualties of soldiers in the phalanx.

Bei Chenlong's face became ugly. A large number of barbarians had arrived at the tower of Xingbei Pass. They carried barbed iron chains and threw the iron chains towards the tower. Led by the wires, they continued to climb up the tower.Bei Chenlong ordered to release arrows, and those barbarian soldiers who had climbed halfway to the tower were shot and fell.

But when a group of barbarians fell, another group of barbarians continued to charge the city immediately. Bei Chenlong asked Yang Jin to lead 13 soldiers to form a line of defense on the tower, while he led [-] soldiers out of the city to meet them. enemy.

Lin Aoxue followed in the team behind Bei Chenlong, and led [-] troops, according to Bei Chenlong's order, rushed into the barbarian team from the side, and rushed to kill, both sides suffered damage.

Bei Chenlong personally led 5 elite soldiers, like a burst of blades, cut into the phalanx of the barbarians, cut the barbarian team from the middle, and cut it into two pieces. Lin Aoxue followed another regular fourth-rank general to rush forward from the right, cutting the integrated team of barbarians into scattered pieces.

After a strangulation, the barbarian infantry suffered heavy losses, but thousands of soldiers from Beichen's army fell on the battlefield.

The leader of the barbarians was a burly man. While using the language of the barbarians, he ordered the formation to be assembled, and at the same time ordered the cavalry to charge forward, blocking the momentum of the Beichen cavalry and covering the infantry attacking the city.

The [-] elite soldiers following Bei Chenlong followed him deep into the barbarian formation, soldiers fell down constantly, and some stood up to continue to resist the blades of the barbarians. Kill to the front of the barbarian and fight with him.

Lin Aoxue followed the team and killed countless enemies along the way. She was unparalleled in heroism, beheading a low-ranking general in the barbarian army under his horse, causing the team of about ten thousand people to lose an inch.

The barbarians were defeated by Bei Chenlong, and after dozens of rounds of fighting each other, Bei Chenlong firmly gained the upper hand. Seeing that the tower could not be attacked for a long time, his men shook Bei Chenlong away with all their strength, and ordered to withdraw their troops.

The barbarian troops came and went quickly, but within half an hour, they withdrew from Xingbei Pass, leaving behind thousands of barbarian corpses.

The soldiers of Xingbeiguan were not much better. The archers on the tower fired dozens of rounds of arrows in a row, and they couldn't even lift their arms. However, the battlefield still needs to be cleaned. It can also be picked up and reused. Now that Xingbeiguan is short of resources, where it can be saved, it is natural not to be extravagant and wasteful.

After finally repelling the barbarians, Bei Chenlong immediately ordered to clear the battlefield and count the casualties of this barbarian attack.

Because Bei Chenlong expected early on that the barbarians would definitely attack Xing Beiguan after the integration, and even roughly estimated the number of troops they sent. Although the barbarian attack was very sudden this time, it caused some damage to Xing Beiguan , but generally speaking, the response was fairly timely, and the soldiers in the pass were also very brave in their charge. After paying a price that was not too painful, they successfully repelled the barbarians.

Bei Chenlong's eyes were as sharp as knives. He stood on the watchtower to observe the movement of the barbarians. After seeing that the barbarian army retreated for about ten miles, they stopped retreating and set up camp outside the pass. Obviously, they wanted to form a long-term confrontation with Xingbei Pass. .

Lin Aoxue was soaked in blood and smelled bad. This time they counterattacked smoothly. She looked embarrassed, but the blood was left by barbarians, and it was rare that she herself was not injured.

She followed the team to quickly clean up the battlefield outside the pass, burned the remaining corpses outside the pass, and returned with the name tags of the dead soldiers left on the battlefield. The soldiers in the pass had no time to be sad. In the short time before the next wave of barbarians attack, take a good rest.

Even in the face of such a fierce attack from the barbarians, Bei Chenlong did not withdraw the guards outside the fifth prince's camp. Lin Aoxue and others came down from the battlefield. Yunyan found Lin Aoxue among the blood-soaked soldiers, checked her, and confirmed her He was uninjured and returned immediately.

The war in the customs is serious, although she is worried about Lin Aoxue, she still can't get too close to him, lest Lin Aoxue be criticized by others.

Yunyan is no longer a military doctor in the northern military camp, so she has no obligation to treat the soldiers in the northern region for free. Bei Chenlong saw that the injury was serious and the military doctor was too busy. Although his face was ugly, he still put down his face and went to invite Yunyan in person. , Said that if she had time to treat the injuries of the soldiers, he would pay the full amount of the consultation fee.

Yunyan has always been sensible, so naturally she would not try to raise her price. She didn't help before, but it was because Bei Chenlong might not see that she was making good claims. This time, Bei Chenlong put down his face and invited her. Xin offered to help, which made Bei Chenlong feel very embarrassed and shameless.

Lin Aoxue has always been supportive of Yunyan's decision. Although she is not ashamed of Bei Chenlong's prejudice, since Yunyan doesn't want to care about it, she has nothing to say. While the barbarians are temporarily resting, she also needs to recover| Physical strength is what matters.

It turned out that the barbarians came faster than she expected.

That evening, before it was completely dark, the barbarians suddenly came to attack the city for the second time. Their battle was still huge, and every barbarian seemed to use their inexhaustible physical strength to make the soldiers stationed on the tower of Xingbei Pass be terrified.

Bei Chenlong climbed up the tower at the first time, and the archers quickly got into position. Even though they were exhausted, they had to muster up their spirits and forcefully opened their bows. After several rounds of arrow rain, Bei Chenlong once again led a hundred thousand The soldiers of Beichen went out to meet the enemy, and the armies of the two sides collided with each other again amidst the screams of all their strength, starting the second round of fighting each other.

Lin Aoxue was not injured in the previous battle, so this time she followed suit. The battle lasted for two hours, but the barbarians still failed to attack the tower, so after the sky completely darkened, they called for gold to retreat and quickly withdrew from the battlefield , retreated to the temporary camp ten miles away from Xingbeiguan.

The soldiers of Xing Beiguan breathed a sigh of relief. After cleaning the battlefield, some soldiers were so exhausted that they fell asleep on the ground.

But no one dared to let themselves sleep soundly, and no one had a peaceful rest. All the soldiers in Xingbei Pass were very nervous. They didn't know when the barbarians would come again, so they had to keep themselves alert at all times. Respond to unexpected situations in the first place.

Lin Aoxue didn't go back to her camp after she came down from the battlefield. Instead, she went up to the tower and leaned against the foot of the city wall to rest for a while. The soldiers in the pass breathed a sigh of relief when the barbarians didn't come to attack the city again until it was daylight.

At noon the next day, the barbarians attacked Xing Beiguan again. The soldiers of Xing Beiguan responded immediately. Bei Chenlong led the troops out of the city. There were more than [-] times, with an average of at least two sieges per day, and several of them were fought on the towers, but they were finally driven back by Beichen soldiers.

In just ten days, the barbarians made the garrison in Xingbei Pass panic. Everyone tensed up the strings in their hearts, fearing that the city gate would be breached by the barbarians at any time. Under such tremendous pressure, Many people's spirits are on the verge of collapse, and they are frightened, and any disturbance can startle a large number of people into panic.

The only good news may be that the fifth prince's injury recovery is relatively smooth. Counting from the first attack by the barbarians, Yun Yan reported to Bei Chenlong that the remaining poison on Bei Chenbo's body had been cleaned up, about five or six days later. Bei Chenlong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and sent someone to take good care of Bei Chenbo.

It doesn't matter if Bei Chenbo can't wake up temporarily, as long as he stays quietly in the army, Bei Chenlong can suppress some small problems.

The casualties in the army were getting bigger and bigger. Even though Yunyan told Bei Chenlong that the fifth prince's injury was no longer serious, Bei Chenlong still asked her to stay in the army temporarily and continue to take care of the wounded soldiers.Yunyan didn't show any dissatisfaction on her face, as soon as Bei Chenlong said, she agreed.

Compared with the tense atmosphere inside the Xingbei Pass, the barbarians outside the pass seemed extraordinarily calm.

They seem to never run out of strength. As long as they find an opportunity, they will attack immediately. Each time they only rest for half a day or a few hours. Under such a high-intensity attack, both sides lost more than ten thousand troops. , but the barbarians had no intention of giving up at all, they still guarded outside Xingbei Pass every day, waiting for an opportunity to break into Xingbei Pass.

Bei Chenlong also worked hard all day, and his hair quickly turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the barbarians refused to retreat completely, so his heart was always hanging, and he couldn't relax his vigilance at all times.

No matter how busy Yunyan is, she still takes time to visit Lin Aoxue every day, checks her body to see if she is injured, and prepares some medicinal food reasonably for her poor rest and overwork, and watches her use it. That's why Lin Aoxue's body is not as soft as other soldiers, and it is not easy to fall down.

And Lin Aoxue often sees Yunyan, and her heart is not as nervous as before. She gradually gets used to getting along with Yunyan, and with the urgency of the war, she feels a little emotional, but she pays more attention to Yunyan's situation than before.

The originally stable situation of the confrontation between the two armies was broken in the early morning of a certain day because of an urgent message sent from outside the customs. Bei Chenlong received the urgent message from the messenger and quickly opened it. up.

Yang Jinshou stood by Bei Chenlong's side. Seeing Bei Chenlong like this, he immediately frowned and asked:

"What happened?"

Bei Chenlong sighed, and handed the urgent report to Yang Jin, asking him to open it for himself.

Yang Jin took the letter and glanced over the words. After seeing the contents clearly, his face changed and he said in surprise:

"Mingzheng has fallen?!"

Bei Chenlong's eyes flashed with a sharp cold light, he gritted his teeth, his face was dark, his hands pressed on the table were tightly clenched, and he said angrily:

"What a cunning barbarian, I got the news earlier that the barbarians were divided into three groups, attacking from Mingzheng, Poyan, and Xingbeiguan. As for not being able to last for a month, I didn't expect that it would only be ten days, and Mingzheng would be broken in ten days!"

Speaking of this, he sighed again, with a hint of sadness in his voice, and said:

"The barbarians have good means, good means! The princess of the Boca tribe is an opponent."

Yang Jin looked at the urgent report in his hand, his face was cloudy and uncertain, he gritted his teeth, and asked Bei Chenlong again:

"What about Mingzheng's soldiers? It won't be [-] soldiers, and the whole army will be wiped out, right?"

Bei Chenlong shook his head and sighed:

"The entire army was not wiped out. The remaining [-] soldiers were retreating towards Xingbei Pass. The barbarians sent [-] soldiers to attack Mingzheng. It's not surprising that they couldn't defend."

When Yang Jin heard this, he was relieved after all. No one died, and one more life would be good. If the pass is gone, he can try to get it back again. It's just that the ordinary people living in the Mingzheng pass have suffered.

Of course Bei Chenlong understood what he was worried about, he clenched his fists and said in a hateful voice:

"The barbarians are serious this time. They want to beat me to abandon the Xingbei Pass, so as to occupy my land in the north. But how can I, Beichenlong, be defeated so easily!"

He has led troops to station in the northern border for 30 years. It can be said that every plant, tree, flower and leaf in the northern border has grown under his protection. His understanding of the northern border is far beyond the barbarians. However, if the barbarians want to completely defeat him and seize control of this land, it may not be so easy.

Yang Jin also sighed, with a dejected look on his face, and said helplessly:

"I hope these barbarians can retreat in the face of difficulties, withdraw their troops earlier, and save so many innocent people from being killed or injured. Their own people have shed so much blood and sacrificed so many lives on this land. They Don't you feel sorry for it?"

Bei Chenlong scoffed at Yang Jin's words, he snorted coldly, and refuted:

"That group of ruthless savages, do you want them to learn to be sympathetic to the people? They are a group of beasts who kill without batting an eye! Even if they hurt them, they won't learn their lesson!"

As soon as Bei Chenlong finished speaking, horns sounded again from the top of the city tower, and the barbarians attacked the city again. They seemed to be tireless, with endless physical strength, which made Bei Chenlong feel very depressed and anxious, but he had no choice but to Once again call on the soldiers in the pass to turn on and off to meet the enemy.

After Beichenlong No.30 repelled the barbarians seven times, the barbarian troops retreated ten miles and took a rare two-day rest. Beichenlong felt a little relieved, and the soldiers of Xing Beiguan seemed to see hope, and each of them became excited , the barbarians have shown a little fatigue, as long as they continue to hold on, they will be able to defend until the day when the barbarians completely retreat.

Bei Chenlong stood on the tower of Xingbei Pass, his eyes showed deep thought, and he was thinking about how to break the barbarian offensive.

The resources in Xingbei Pass are being consumed rapidly. Bei Chenlong believes that the consumption of the barbarians will not be smaller than that of Xingbei Pass, and their daily consumption will only be more. They are nomadic people, and they can't drive cattle and sheep to the battlefield, so there must be a steady stream of supplies behind them.

If the supply of the barbarians is cut off, can they be completely beaten back to their original form?

However, how to determine the specific location of the barbarian supply is also a problem. For such confidential information, there is no way to send ordinary scouts to investigate it clearly, and it will only kill them in vain.Therefore, the candidates who can be dispatched cannot be hastily decided.

Bei Chenlong thought to no avail, and walked down from the tower slowly. He was just about to go back to the tent, when suddenly a messenger came to report that an eunuch had come from the capital. Let Beichenlong take over the order.

Bei Chenlong frowned, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, he followed behind the messenger with a cold face, and came to the gate of the barracks to receive the eunuch who came from the capital by order, and the eunuch sang "General Bei Chenlong received the order" Afterwards, Bei Chenlong knelt on one knee helplessly to listen to the order.

The eunuch picked up the tone, put on a pose, spread out the bright yellow volume in his hand, and sang loudly with a drake-like voice:

"By God, the emperor's edict said: The border is bitter and cold. It is not easy for the general Bei Chenlong to defend the border. The situation outside the customs is unpredictable recently. General Bei Chen and the fifth prince Bei Chenbo are called back to Beijing immediately to report on their duties and discuss countermeasures. Temporary General of the Three Armies, hereby!"

Halfway through the eunuch's speech, Bei Chenlong's mind was buzzing, and when he completely read the contents of the imperial decree, Bei Chenlong felt that his whole body was about to explode.

The emperor is treating him as a fool. The imperial decree clearly means to cut his power, saying that he should return to Beijing to report on his duties. Who knows what the emperor is planning. Once he returns, he only needs to step on his feet If he enters the capital, he will definitely be arrested by someone sent by the emperor, and even if he is not killed immediately, he will definitely be placed under house arrest.

Bei Chenlong sneered in his heart, he raised his head abruptly, and glared at the eunuch who delivered the letter. The bloodthirsty and fierce look in his eyes shocked the eunuch, but he thought he had the emperor's order, Bei Chenlong really didn't dare What to do with him, he straightened his face and said to Bei Chenlong:

"General Beichen, please accept the order."

The corners of Bei Chenlong's lips curled into a hint of sarcasm. He had lived and died for the northern border for so many years, and the emperor wanted to let go of his military power with just one word.

You are not kind to me, why do you still ask me to treat him righteously?

"Bei Chenlong orders to thank you!"

He spread his hands above his head, took the emperor's imperial decree from the eunuch, stood up, with a cold look in his eyes, and when he got up, he said to the two guards behind him:

"It's really hard for the father-in-law to come all the way. You send him to rest."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at the eunuch again, and persuaded:

"At present, the battle is urgent and the army is chaotic. It is better for Eunuch not to wander around, lest he be hacked by some ignorant thing."

For the last two words, Bei Chenlong deliberately raised his tone, causing the eunuch to tremble. House arrest.

Bei Chenlong squeezed the imperial decree in his hand, his expression was extremely ugly.

He walked back to his tent and sent someone to find Guo Wencheng.

Guo Wencheng came soon. He opened the curtain of the tent, walked in quickly, knelt down on one knee and saluted Bei Chenlong, and asked:

"I don't know why the general asked his subordinates to come here?"

He hadn't heard about the imperial decree yet, nor had he expected that a catastrophe was waiting for him.

Bei Chenlong's eyes were cold, and the corners of his lips twitched, revealing a cold and mocking smile:

"General Guo won the holy favor, how come he doesn't know about it?"

Guo Wencheng heard the words, with an extremely confused expression on his face, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, and asked:

"What does the general mean?"

Bei Chenlong threw the imperial decree towards Guo Wencheng, Guo Wencheng took it with both hands, unfolded the imperial decree, his eyes blurred, he knelt down on his knees with a plop, bowed his head to the ground, with a panicked expression:

"General! The subordinates don't know about this matter! Please also check it out!"

Bei Chenlong sneered:

"Clearly observe? How can I understand clearly? The imperial decree is clearly written in black and white. You are no longer a fourth-rank general, but a general at the same level as this general. You don't need to pay such a big gift to this general!"

Hearing Bei Chenlong's eccentric words, Guo Wencheng knew that there might be no possibility of peace talks in today's matter. He was extremely puzzled and frowned in trouble, but he still fell on the ground and defended himself in embarrassment:

"Why do you say such things, general? Your subordinates have always been loyal to the general. Your Majesty's mind is unpredictable and unpredictable. I can't predict it. General, please don't bother about this matter!"

Bei Chenlong sneered, and the sarcasm in his words did not hide:

"Heh, General Guo has just been promoted, and he has learned to talk to this general in this way. It's amazing!"

Guo Wencheng raised his head suddenly, his face was extremely shocked, but before he could continue speaking, Bei Chenlong had already reprimanded him:

"Come here, General Guo, please go down and stay in the tent temporarily, so that you can think about how to lead the three armies to repel the barbarians!"

Immediately, Bei Chenlong's confidants broke in from outside the tent and pulled Guo Wencheng's arm. No matter how he struggled and tried to defend himself, the two guards didn't change their expressions and dragged him down.

Bei Chenlong clenched his brows tightly, with a fierce look in his eyes.

He never thought that he would be betrayed by Guo Wencheng, and he also knew that it might just be the emperor's plan to alienate him, but Bei Chenlong was already very suspicious, and the recent disturbances in Xingbei Pass made Bei Chenlong feel uneasy. He had slight or heavy doubts about everyone around him, and this imperial decree undoubtedly aggravated such doubts, causing a knot in Bei Chenlong's heart that couldn't go away.

Whether it was the emperor's design or not, in short, his imperial edict successfully brought some troubles to Bei Chenlong.

But even though Bei Chenlong immediately put Guo Wencheng under house arrest, news of the imperial decree quickly spread throughout Xing Beiguan. This made Guo Wen become a temporary new general.

This kind of news cannot be suppressed. Bei Chenlong knew in his heart that the news must have leaked in the pass and let the emperor know about the attack on the fifth prince. Therefore, the emperor was furious and wanted to take this opportunity to completely remove Bei Chenlong's responsibility. Military power, replace new generals.

Regardless of whether Guo Wencheng has betrayed or not, in Bei Chenlong's view, it is impossible for him to be reused again.But those soldiers who have always made good deals with Guo Wen may not give up easily.

Years ago, it was not only Guo Wencheng who came to Beijing to report on his work, but also Lin Aoxue.Bei Chenlong's eyes shone coldly, and he said to himself coldly in his heart.When he sent the two of them back to Beijing, it was out of respect, but now, it has become a disaster he planted for himself.

Soon, soldiers will come to find Bei Chenlong and ask about Guo Wencheng's whereabouts, but Bei Chenlong looks on coldly and doesn't speak clearly.A few days later, Guo Wencheng never showed up on the battlefield, and all the high-ranking officers in the army came to Bei Chenlong's tent at the same time, looking for him for an explanation.

Bei Chenlong glanced coldly, swept across the faces of these people, and hummed:

"What do you want to say?"

One of them said:

"Why haven't you seen General Guo these days?"

When Bei Chenlong heard the words, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he replied:

"General Guo has just been promoted. At this time, he must be trying his best in the military tent to consider the strategy of retreating the enemy."

The person who asked the question earlier frowned, he was not fooled by Bei Chenlong's words, and asked instead:

"Why don't you go directly to the battlefield after thinking about countermeasures? General, did you put General Guo under house arrest because of His Majesty's decree?"

Bei Chenlong was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He slapped the table hard and shouted angrily:

"presumptuous!"

The bodies of several people at the table trembled at the same time, but seeing Bei Chenlong stand up abruptly, with a cold glint in his eyes, he said angrily:

"It's only been a few days? How dare you speak to the general in such a tone? How much benefit did Guo Wencheng give you behind his back?"

The complexions of the people who came and waited suddenly changed, and one of them showed surprise and said anxiously:

"General! Why do you speculate on us like this! The subordinates and others think that since His Majesty has delivered the imperial decree, he should follow the holy will and allow General Guo to dispatch the three armies. The current war is critical, and it is expedient for the general not to return to the capital to report on his duties. , It won’t be too late to return to Beijing after repelling the barbarians.”

The coldness in Bei Chenlong's eyes was even worse. The more these people talked, the more he doubted Guo Wencheng. After the person finished speaking, he immediately retorted:

"Heh, since it is an expedient measure for the general to postpone entering Beijing, how can there be two generals in the three armies. Since the general is here, it is really wise for General Guo to retreat behind the scenes."

The generals were extremely surprised. They never thought that Bei Chenlong would say such a thing. Most of Xing Beiguan's generals are upright, with well-developed limbs and simple minds. After saying these words, they were immediately shocked, and one of them asked quickly:

"General! Are you resisting the decree?!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Bei Chenlong's face changed drastically, but even the few people who were watching also changed their faces.

It wasn't a serious matter at first, but once the conclusion was settled because of a certain sentence that was said suddenly, then the facts often became a foregone conclusion.

They thought that as the generals of the Beichen Kingdom, they should obey the emperor's will. Even though Beichenlong was in charge of all of them as a general, as long as the emperor needed them, they should act according to the emperor's will, and they must not violate it. However, Bei Chenlong gave them a feeling that he did not want to obey this order.

Bei Chenlong looked at the person who spoke with a dark face, a sharp cold light gathered in his eyes, he sneered, and said:

"Of course this general will not resist the order. Since you are worried about General Guo, why don't you go and see what General Guo is doing, rather than questioning me here!"

The generals were panicked, Bei Chenlong's attitude was extremely bad, and there was no need for them to continue talking, so they all retreated and left. Bei Chenlong was in a terrible mood. He sat in the tent, thinking about what the generals said just now. The only thing that made him feel a little relieved was that more than half of his generals did not come out to question him.

Regarding Guo Wencheng's handling, he felt that he was a little too hasty, but he couldn't think of a better way to deal with it right now. No matter what, he definitely would not let Guo Wencheng command the army to subtly offset his prestige.

After those generals retired, they didn't bother him anymore. The barbarians came to attack the city several times, but all failed. Bei Chenlong could see that the decline of the barbarians was getting worse and worse, and they felt that they couldn't hold on anymore.

He thought to himself that it was almost time for the whole army to strike back against the barbarian army and drive them out of the northern border.

Bei Chenlong summoned all the officers in the army above captain to discuss the matter of dispatching troops. All the generals were present, but before Bei Chenlong opened his mouth to discuss, someone suddenly asked:

"Why didn't General Guo come?"

Bei Chenlong's expression changed. This matter has passed for several days, and no one came to inquire about Guo Wencheng's situation. Unexpectedly, the old matter was brought up again at this time.

He suddenly turned cold and hummed:

"General Guo is busy with business, so he must not have time to be there."

All the generals in the tent looked at each other, half of them frowned, and someone asked tentatively:

"Your Majesty didn't decree that General Guo should be promoted to temporary General. No matter how busy he is, he shouldn't be absent from such an important meeting. He also asked the General to send someone to invite General Guo."

At the head of the tent, Bei Chenlong's fists were clenched tightly, and the look in his eyes was cold and stern, gradually gathering a murderous look.
