Chapter 280 Taking over the Decadent City

Li Yunxing understood Liu Zhongqing's thoughts and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Liu Zhongqing still doesn't know what kind of thing his son is. Just because his son is like this, even if he stays in the army for decades, he still won't be able to get the position of captain.

However, if he wanted to have illusions, Li Yunxing would not be able to break them.

"Okay, he can continue to stay in the army. Liu Chen is also his brother after all. These brothers in the army should take good care of him."

Liu Zhongqing's face turned ugly because he remembered the cause of Liu Chen's death again.

In this way, Li Yunxing led the southeastern army to Dandang City. Guo Mengsheng personally went down to the city gate to greet him, and saw Hu Yanhong who was imprisoned in a prison car at a glance.

"Congratulations to His Highness the Prince for defeating the Huns."

Li Yunxing helped him up. If it hadn't been for his help this time, his plan would not have gone so smoothly.

After Guo Mengsheng was helped up, his mind was no longer with the prince, but with his enemy.

He looked like he had something to say to Hu Yanhong. Li Yun asked him to resolve his personal grudges and took Jiang He back to the city. Before entering the meeting hall, he turned to call Wen Wentai who had just been promoted.

Wen Wentai was originally following everyone, but this time he became a hussar general and could finally kill the enemy in front of the battle. Moreover, this time he was so proud that he killed everyone on the battlefield, which should not disgrace Lord Jiang's promotion.

Just as I was thinking about this, I suddenly heard someone calling me from above. I looked up and met the prince's warm eyes.

The soldier next to him pushed him, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile.

"His Royal Highness calls you over. You are lucky. If you are appreciated, don't forget your brothers."

Wen Wentai came to His Highness the Crown Prince in a confused manner. He had seen His Highness the Crown Prince before when the army was arrayed in the southeast, but he was very far away from the Crown Prince at that time and he could not see clearly.

Now when I look closer, I realize that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be younger than him, but he is standing there with an extraordinary air about him that makes people want to kneel down and worship him for no reason.

Just as he was about to kneel down to worship, the prince just smiled and said.

"There's no need to be so polite. I want to discuss something with Jiang He. You can come in with me."

With that said, the prince walked into the meeting hall first. Jiang He looked back at him and waved his hand.

"Follow me quickly."

Wen Wentai felt as if he had been hit by a boulder. He never imagined that one day he would be able to follow the prince into the meeting hall. His hands began to tremble with excitement.

When I came to the hall, I happened to hear the prince talking.

"This time the Xiongnu sent tens of thousands of elite troops, but not all of his combat power. We only hurt his spirit, and we cannot let down our guard just yet."

Especially the city of Daidang. The Huns had coveted this city for a long time and spent a lot of effort to snatch it. So after knowing that the city of Daidang was lost, they ordered Hu Yanhong to come and capture the city. Although they failed this time, they would not just take it.

Give up like this.

Jiang He very much agrees with this truth.

"Indeed, the city of Decadang is the land of our Wu Dynasty. His Highness the Crown Prince has taken this place back, which greatly boosted the hearts of the people in the court. But taking it back is not the ultimate goal. We must keep this place safe and never let it be taken away by the Huns again."

."

Li Yunxing thought this way. Defending the city was actually not a good job. The city was small and could not station many troops, but there was always the danger of the Huns invading.

Moreover, defending the city here is not like making meritorious deeds on the battlefield, and it is easy to stand out. At that time, no one was willing to defend the city here, which caused the people of the city to lose heart and was taken away by the Xiongnu.

"Master Guo has to go back to Feng Yi County. Thunderbolt Cannon can stay, but we can't let down our guard in Decadang City, so I want a trustworthy person to guard it."

Jiang He also sighed. Both of them were a little confused. Who is more suitable to guard the city?

At this moment, Wen Wentai suddenly stepped forward and knelt on the ground.

"Returning to Your Highness the Prince, the general is speaking softly. Although he does not have much experience in leading troops, the general is willing to help the prince solve his problems. If the prince can trust the general, the general is willing to defend the city here and protect the city forever.

Towards the land.”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Li Yunxing, even Jiang He was stunned on the spot.

"Wen Wentai, you are now a hussar general. If you are sure to succeed in the southeastern army, if you want to defend the city, you may have to die here for the rest of your life."

Li Yunxing twirled his fingers and did not stop Jiang He from saying this. Instead, he echoed it.

"I asked you to come here because I saw that you were successful in killing enemies on the battlefield. I deliberately cultivated you, not because I wanted you to defend the city."

"I know you are a talented person. In the future, you may be able to take over from Jiang He and become the general of the southeastern army. Even so, are you willing to defend that decaying city?"

When Wen Wentai heard this, he didn't feel annoyed or regretful, he only felt excited.

He had always hoped that he would be successful, but he could only feel frustrated. He never thought that both the prince and the general had the ability to recognize people, and they could see his abilities and be his benefactors.

He doesn't have much ambition, he just rarely meets a benefactor and wants to do something for his benefactor.

"The general would like to thank the prince and the general for their appreciation. In fact, with the prince's words, the general is already satisfied. The general does not dare to ask for too much. He only wants to serve the prince and the Wu Dynasty. The general is willing to guard the city of Badang."

Li Yunxing suddenly stood up and patted the table.

"Okay, that's good. You can stay and guard the city. Don't worry, I will arrange enough troops for you and I will never treat you badly."

Wen Wentai immediately knelt down to thank him.

Jiang He glanced aside, knowing that this young man had to guard the city, which seemed like a thankless job. After he returned, many people would definitely feel sorry for him.

But those people didn't know that he had already been appreciated by the prince. He could do things that others couldn't do, he could guard things that others couldn't, and he could naturally achieve things that others couldn't.

At this time, this young man only relied on his enthusiasm to agree to this errand, but he did not know how much benefit his enthusiasm could bring to him.

Think about Zhan Jun, although his family background is not obvious, the height he has reached today is something that many young masters from prominent family backgrounds cannot reach in their lifetime.

But at least Zhan Jun still has some family background, and he has Lian Zhan behind him. He can be regarded as a son of an aristocratic family. Moreover, when the prince is weak, he has the few available people, taking advantage of the right time, place and people.

But Wen Wentai is different. He is from a commoner background, and his starting point is very low. There is no one behind him who can support him. Even if he can be reused, the highest he can be is a general. But now, his future is already in doubt.
