"It is true that I am a little anxious, but it is understandable. After all, there are many people watching this position. If it is too late, things will change easily."
Thinking of the news coming back from the front line, Long Tianyu couldn't help but squint his eyes, and his smile was quite meaningful.
As far as he knew, the reason why this successor succeeded in taking office was related to that person's life experience.
There are rumors in the outside world that he is the illegitimate son of the general who lived abroad when he was young.
Therefore, after the general retrieved the person, he just arranged the person beside him and did not give him too many opportunities to show his face.
It wasn't until the powerful competitors around the general were beaten to a bloody pulp that he appeared as a dark horse.
However, what is interesting is that this successor did not actually receive any written support from the general, but only a verbal agreement.
But the people who testified for him were all highly respected, and it was said that there was a reason why the commander-in-chief recommended that person.
In short, this matter reveals unusual meanings everywhere.
Therefore, those guys who heard about it quickly jumped on it, hoping to get a piece of the pie.
But they didn't have to think about it. Since the flaw was so big that people like them who didn't know the inside story could see through it, were those high-level officials really that stupid, waiting for others to pull their tails?
In short, Shaoxuan's army is about to change.
As if to confirm Long Tianyu's guess, within two days, another rather shocking news came over there.
"The successor was assassinated and his whereabouts are now unknown."
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. After hearing the news brought by Long Tianyu, she couldn't help but become more worried.
"Do you know who did it?" she asked.
Long Tianyu shook his head and put his own coat on his wife.
He knew the matter was urgent, so he hurried back and told her in the middle of the night.
"We don't know yet, but the situation over there is not good."
Lin Mengya nodded, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
Her idea was to let the people in the Shenji camp survive as long as they could before the real trouble came.
Instead of investing all the limited combat power into the internal friction of Shaoxuan Army.
After all, if those from the Outer Realm really come to invade this continent in the future, then at least in critical moments, Shenji Camp can become the first line of defense.
Although she and Yu have already issued orders respectively, dispatched their available manpower, and brought sufficient combat supplies to arrive here as soon as possible, but these all require time to prepare.
Moreover, their deployment of manpower on such a large scale would have aroused the vigilance of others.
What if those people knew about the news in advance? But the gain outweighs the loss.
Therefore, except for the two people they could truly trust, even the personnel who were transferred did not know what they were facing and just thought it was a normal secret operation.
All in all, this happened at the wrong time.
"We still have to prepare early. I'm afraid we can't rely solely on the Shenji Battalion."
"good."
He agreed and gently rubbed her shoulders with his big hands.
"Okay, don't worry too much. We have been preparing for so long, and everything will be fine."
Long Tianyu knew what she was thinking.
His wife was always prepared for danger in times of peace, always feeling that they were not sufficiently prepared.
But accidents don’t always happen until people are fully prepared, otherwise they wouldn’t be accidents.
"Well, I understand, you should go to bed early."
Her hand covered Long Tianyu's, and the tacit understanding between the two made her feel more at ease.
It takes a thousand days to raise an army but only a short time to use it. Perhaps it is time to test the results of their efforts over the years.
At the same time, in another room in the same village, Du Canjun was sitting on a chair, probably not sleeping at all.
Vice General Bai brought him breakfast early in the morning and wanted to report the progress of various tasks in the herbal medicine workshop. Who knew that as soon as he entered the door, he saw a pair of bloodshot eyes staring straight at him.
Hold yourself.
Vice Admiral Bai was almost startled at that time, but fortunately, he stabilized himself in the end.
"Master Junjun, what's wrong with you?"
He carefully put down the porridge and steamed buns in his hands.
No matter what happens, he will not waste these precious grains!
But he continued to put things away to avoid the military officer's direct gaze.
So scary!
"Ajing, I received a transfer order last night."
It had only been one night, but Du Canjun's voice seemed extremely hoarse.
Bai Jing's heart trembled, and he didn't care about the terrifying look in the army soldier's eyes. He said in a deep voice, "Sir, what is written in the transfer order?"
"The whereabouts of the successor to the general are unknown, so we are asked to find him."
When Du Canjun said this, he felt a sense of hatred that was gnashing his teeth for some reason.
Bai Jing also stiffened his face and received the transfer order from his hand.
After reading the above content, his eyes were red with anger.
"That's too much! I think those people just want to force us to take our brothers to die!"
The transfer order indeed only mentioned this one thing, but it said that it was related to the gangsters at the Thirteenth Level at this time.
In addition to looking for the successor, he also ordered them to set off immediately to go to the Thirteenth Pass to eliminate those bandits.
The ruthless bandits at the Thirteenth Level have long been known for their ferocious reputation, and since it was destroyed, many ruthless bandits have occupied the Thirteenth Level.
The Presbyterian Church also sent people to clean up the area several times, but the result was heavy losses.
And those ruthless bandits probably also understood that if they came out, they would face a dead end.
Therefore, this group of people got entangled together and surrounded the Thirteen Passes.
And I also heard that a "ghost-faced Shura" came out of there.
Not only are his martial arts skills unpredictable, but he is also cunning and cruel. .??.??
The previous purges were all defeated by this "ghost-faced Shura", and he also threatened that from now on, people from the ancient clan would not be allowed to enter the Thirteen Passes without permission, and those who disobeyed the order would be killed without mercy!
At first, some people did not believe in evil, but later, it was said that the ghost-faced Shura accumulated the corpses of those people in a thick layer at the gate of Shisan Pass Mountain, which made those people afraid.
Now, the Shaoxuan Army came up and asked them to clear out the Thirteen Passes. This was clearly a plot against them, pushing their brothers from the Shenji Battalion to die!
What Bai Jing said was exactly what Du Canjun was worried about.
"Sir, you still need to think carefully at this time. In my humble opinion, I think we should ignore this matter for the time being. If the general is not subject to military orders outside, they can't do anything to us."
This is the best method Bai Jing can think of.
But delaying it means that sooner or later they will have no way to retreat.
Du Canjun waved his hand and said seriously, "We can't delay it for long. This order was issued by the commander-in-chief himself. He won't give us too much time."
Sure enough, in the afternoon and late at night that day, they received the second and third orders and reminders.
Moreover, the tone of each transfer order became more intense. Even in the last one, the commander-in-chief directly asked him in the transfer order whether he wanted to rebel against the clan?
He also said that if he really rebelled against the clan, the commander-in-chief would consider all the soldiers in the Shenji Battalion to be traitors.
At the same time, their relatives will also be implicated.
Now that we've reached this point, it's pure blackmail.
Du Canjun could protect his brothers, but he couldn't protect everyone's wives, children, and mothers.
As the third transfer order came, it was he who sent him to pick him up. The feedback from my relatives’ subordinates.
Someone had already searched for them at home, and a few were lucky enough to take out their relatives before those people came.
Others also suppressed their anger, but returned empty-handed.
Du Canjun didn't understand that the commander-in-chief was forcing him to agree to this matter, and was already threatening the safety of his subordinates' families.
What a Shaoxuan Army! What a great commander!
They were servile when facing the real enemy, but when faced with the innocent family members under their command, they were able to find them in such a short period of time.
It can be seen that some things are really not something they can't do, but it depends on whether they want to do it or not.
"Master Junjun, what should we do now?"
Bai Jing also knew about this.
Compared to others, his family has never joined the army because of its large number of people.
In addition, he is the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion, so his family is also one of the "key care" ones.
His family has lost contact with him.
But before that, he received a letter from his family.
It said that he should listen to the adults who have joined the army and not worry about them. As long as he behaves well, they will be safe.
This letter is in his grandfather's handwriting.
Thinking that his elderly grandfather might have been forced to write these words with a knife at his neck, he became furious and could not control his emotions.
But in the end, he could only choose to endure it temporarily.
Otherwise? Do you want to watch your family members die?
Du Canjun stood at the window and looked out at the night.
It was supposed to be a quiet late night, but Zhuangzi was filled with figures quietly waiting for him.
Although he couldn't see clearly, he could feel the urgency of those people.
He thought that he should have received the decisions of those outside.
After a while, he still said in a hoarse voice, "Give me the order to repair it tomorrow, and we will set off to the Thirteenth Pass the day after tomorrow."
"yes!"
Bai Jing also replied with some excitement, and at the same time, a vague idea flashed through his mind.
This time, the commander-in-chief did go too far.
But what if there weren’t those intrigues, or if these guys who didn’t care about the lives of their brothers were all dead?
It only took a moment before he went out to urgently gather people to prepare.
Du Canjun stood by the window and saw with his own eyes the way those shadows moved quickly after hearing Bai Jing's orders. He couldn't help but clenched his fists.
