Chapter 862 Green Dragon Soaring into the Clouds, Xuanwu Panhai
Conscience discovery?
Abandon darkness and embrace light?
How can it be!
Based on Chen Yinghao and Chen Xiaotian's understanding of the prince, they participated in this war simply because they thought it would be profitable.
Now they have suddenly switched sides. Although they can't figure out the reason, what is certain is that they definitely did not suddenly realize their conscience and abandon the dark side for the bright side.
But Chen Yinghao and Chen Xiaotian asked a few questions, but Chen Qi seemed unwilling to say more, and they didn't dwell on anything anymore.
Because there is something more worthy of attention now that needs to be discussed urgently.
"How could the military suddenly send troops to [Shangjing]?"
"This matter is indeed very strange. We have also sent people to inquire with the military department before and found that they have an ambiguous attitude towards the two royal families of Yan and Yun joining forces to besiege our Chen royal family."
Before this, the Chen royal family did not go to the military headquarters to protest.
Although the three royal families of Chen, Yan, and Yun are secular people, they have always been supervised by the military ministry [cabinet].
On weekdays, the [Cabinet] will not care about the minor conflicts and frictions that occur between the three families.
But this time, two royal families besieged another royal family.
The military actually sat idly by and ignored such a huge matter?
But the response they received was to ask them to wait.
Later I learned that the reason why the two royal families of Yan and Yun dared to join forces to besiege the Chen royal family was because they had established a relationship with the military department in advance.
This waiting is nothing more than wanting to let it go.
In response to this, the Chen royal family could only be helpless and furious.
The relationship between the Three Emperors, the Five Kings, the Twelve Marquis and the Military Department is, to put it bluntly, linked to interests.
According to ordinary people's thinking, how could the old secular hierarchical system of emperors, kings, and marquises be tolerated when the military and government now rule the world?
If they want to exist, there will be a corresponding price.
That means paying astronomical amounts of taxes every year.
In short, the three emperors, five kings, and twelve princes of these worldly nobles spend a lot of money every year to buy an illusory name.
With such effortless efforts, a large amount of wealth can be obtained, filling the national treasury, why would the military not do it?
Therefore, as far as the military is concerned, the life and death of the Three Emperors, Five Kings, and Twelve Marquises has nothing to do with them.
Because even if one family goes down and a new one comes up, they will not get a penny less.
It should be noted that every once in a while, the lists of the Three Emperors, Five Kings, and Twelve Lords will change slightly.
It is not uncommon for old tribes to fall and new tribes to be replaced.
However, the members of the Chen royal family never imagined that this matter would happen to them one day.
"Where are they now?"
Chen Yinghao asked aloud.
Chen Enze responded, "With the speed they are traveling at, they will be able to enter [Shangjing] in two days."
"In front of Yanyun's army?"
"Yan Yun's army said they would reach [Shangjing] within three days, but while they were on their way, they were busy building up their strength, which slowed down their march."
Chen Yinghao nodded slightly, "When they arrive in [Shangjing], our Chen royal family should go ten miles out of the city and welcome them as a whole family."
This statement made everyone a little confused.
"Ancestor, isn't there something wrong with this?"
"We still don't know what the purpose of this army sent by the military headquarters is."
"What if they are from Yanyun's army and we go out of the city to greet them, wouldn't it be..."
What everyone wants to say is that when they visited the military headquarters before, the military department gave an ambiguous attitude and wanted to ignore it.
Now, troops are suddenly sent here. What do you think, how strange it is.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.
What if this army is on the side of Yanyun's army?
If they go out of the city to respond, aren't they throwing themselves into a trap?
Chen Yinghao glanced at everyone and said indifferently, "What you can think of, I can't think of?"
"The current situation must be obvious to everyone. With the strength of our Chen royal family, if we want to resist the invasion of Yanyun's army, the winning rate is almost zero."
"The only possibility of victory now is to hope that the military can come forward to quell this war."
Chen Xiaotian frowned, "But didn't the military just let it go?"
"They really don't want to take care of it, but they should also understand that after the death of our Chen Royal Family, it will not be easy to find a family that can replace our Chen Royal Family in a short time."
"What the ancestor means is..."
Chen Yinghao nodded, "In my opinion, the military headquarters will send troops here suddenly, and they certainly don't want the matter to cause too much trouble.
He might even give us a hand at a critical moment."
"Taking a step back, if this military team is really here to help Yan and Yun's army, even if we are huddled in the city of [Shangjing], we will not be able to escape sooner or later."
"Instead of just surviving, why not come forward in advance and explore the truth?"
After everyone heard this, they all lowered their heads and began to think deeply.
What Chen Yinghao said is right.
The Chen Royal Family has now reached a critical juncture of life and death. Yanyun's army, with their strength, will definitely not be able to stop them.
But if someone from the military department helps, they will have a chance of survival.
Of course, they cannot rely entirely on the military.
Because they still don’t know the reason why the military department is now red-faced and sometimes white-faced?
If this sudden army came to help the Chen royal family, everyone would naturally be happy.
If they were here to support Yan Yun's army, they would not be able to escape death even if they hid.
However, Chen Yinghao suddenly added something later.
"Besides, I always feel that this army was not sent by the military."
Everyone was stunned, "He wasn't sent by the military?
Who sent that?"
Chen Yinghao shook his head, "I don't know, I just have this intuition."
At this time, Ashue, who had been standing in the crowd and had not spoken for a long time, suddenly asked.
"Master Chen, what are the characteristics of that army that suddenly appeared?"
Chen Enze blinked, "Features?
Why are you asking this?"
Ashue smiled and responded, "I'm just a little curious."
Chen Enze turned his head and thought for a while, "I have sent people to investigate before. That army is all black, with strict military discipline and majestic momentum. It looks like a battle-hardened army."
"In terms of characteristics, it seems that they are flying three different flags."
"Which three?"
Ah Xue stepped forward and asked impatiently.
"The first one is the Azure Dragon Soaring into the Clouds, the second one is the Black Tortoise Panhai, and the third one with the largest number seems to be the Blue Dragon Swallowing the Sun."
Hearing this, Ah Xue subconsciously glanced at Chen Qi, who was sitting not far away, and then smiled even more.
"Do you know what kind of army this is?"
"What army?"
"Qinglong Tengyun is the flag of the Qinglong Army of the [Dragon Temple]. Xuanwu Panhai is the flag of the Xuanwu Army of the [Dragon Temple]. The last kind of Azure Dragon Swallowing the Sun is known as the first legendary army in the world today, the [Dragon]
