At this moment, a soldier ran over holding an eagle and dove: "I just received news from the Huaibei Army that the Fire Crow Army led by the Seventh Young Master Li Wenhao occupied Daha City, the second largest city in Langya Kingdom, one day ago!"
"What, this is impossible!" When Li Wenheng heard this, his face turned pale and his face turned pale.
His body swayed, and he almost fell down if it weren't for the quick hands of Qiao Lang beside him, who caught him.
"Li Wenhao's Fire Crow Army only has more than a thousand people. The rest are horse bandits and refugees. How can they possibly capture Daha City? All lies are fake. They must be fake!"
Li Wenheng shouted hysterically, unwilling to believe the news. He, Li Wenheng, the eldest son of the Li family, had the best resources, the best generals, and led the most elite 30,000 soldiers, but he was defeated miserably.
Li Wenhao was just an unpopular bastard with no soldiers, no generals, no resources, and nothing. He actually captured Daha City, which was on par with Langya King City. This made him feel so embarrassed, and how could he show his face to others!
"Eldest Young Master, please calm down. This is not necessarily a bad thing. You are the legitimate son of the Li family. No matter how many cities Li Wenhao captures, he still has to listen to you!" Qiao Lang persuaded loudly.
"Yes, General Qiao is right. Li Wenhao is just a bastard. As long as the Marquis says a word, he doesn't belong to the eldest son!"
"Quick, give orders to Li Wenhao and ask him to lead troops to rescue!"
"What other orders are there? Didn't the Marquis already give an order to Li Wenhao? This kid didn't obey the order and went to attack Daha City. He must be severely punished!"
A group of guys who were waiting for death in despair suddenly became excited as if they were on stimulants, as if they had conquered the city of Daha.
"You are right!"
After hearing what everyone said, Li Wenheng came back to his senses and thought carefully about what he had done.
Who am I? I am the eldest son of the Li family. Li Wenhao is just an unfavored bastard. How can I compete with myself?
Even if he has some abilities, he still doesn't have to listen to himself. He will snatch them all, including the Fire Crow Army and Daha City.
Not only that, he also wants fame!
"When someone comes, please immediately send a message to the family and ask them to inform Li Wenhao and tell the outside world that Daha City was captured under my command.
The battle at Langya King City was not a defeat, but a false defeat, in order to attract the main force of the Langya Army so that the Fire Crow Army could take the opportunity to seize Daha City. I, Li Wenheng, was not defeated!"
Well, Li Wenheng's words were so majestic that he completely fooled everyone!
I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people!
Even Qiao Lang, who had always supported Li Wenheng, had his mouth twitching and was speechless, with shock in his eyes.
I wonder in my heart, with a guy like Li Wenheng, am I blind?
"You..." Tianyang pointed at Li Wenheng who looked proud, his throat squirmed, and he finally put it down dejectedly.
I felt remorseful in my heart. As expected, my junior brother was born with a keen eye and was very good at judging people. He had seen through Li Wenheng’s true nature early and ran to find Li Wenhao. He was really stupid!
The unreasonable trust I had in my master, Xiaoyaozi, was now shaken. Li Wenheng, with his character, could conquer the world, and he would eat shit in Tianyang!
"I have been in Jinwu Guard for so many years, and I have never seen such an incompetent and shameless person!" Zhu Wen, a member of the Jinwu Guard, sighed softly from a distance, with ridicule in his eyes and mouth.
I was secretly glad that I had gone to Tuke City first and met Li Wenhao, otherwise I would have almost boarded Li Wenheng's broken ship.
At the same time, I felt a little regretful that I shouldn't have left hastily at the Eighteenth Turn and missed the opportunity to build a relationship with Li Wenhao.
"Brother Hu, you have been persuading me to assist Li Wenheng before, but now I want to advise you not to bet in a hurry, wait and see!"
"Brother Zhu, those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. Although the eldest son said it a bit more straightforwardly, his meaning is correct. No matter how much Li Wenhao tosses, he is still the bastard of the Li family, and he still dares to disobey!" Hu Dayou, a member of the Jinwu Guards, said,
I am not ashamed of Li Wenheng's words, but rather proud of them.
"Really, let's wait and see, see you later...!"
Zhu Wen smiled and shook his head and left. He had no thoughts about Hu Dayou in his heart. His brother was hopeless!
Based on his understanding of Li Wenhao, he is definitely not someone to be trifled with.
In the past, it was better to be a fledgling city. Now that we have captured the city of Daha and the foundation has been established, how can we let it be slaughtered by others again?
It's okay if Li Wenheng doesn't go to Li Wenhao, but if he really goes to find Li Wenhao, the end will definitely be miserable.
Soon, an eagle and dove flew into the sky, flying towards Qingyang County with Li Wenheng's revived ambition.
…………………….
Huaibei County, Huaibei Marquis Mansion.
Huaibei Hou Xuankang was convening his men to discuss the suppression of bandits in the county. Suddenly he heard the news that Li Wenhao had occupied Daha City. He almost spit out a mouthful of tea. It felt incredible.
"Everyone, I am really surprised that Li Wenhao, the seventh son of the Li family, actually captured Daha City. I wonder what you think!" Xuan Kang picked up the handkerchief with some embarrassment, wiped the tea on his beard, and looked at everyone.
"Although Li Wenhao has some abilities, most of his subordinates are horse bandits and refugees. Qingyang County is currently experiencing severe banditry and cannot send a large army to support him."
General Xuan Cang touched his forehead and loudly said disapprovingly: "The general thinks that even if Li Wenhao captures Daha City, it will be difficult for him to cope with the Langya Army's counterattack, and he will die sooner or later!"
Huaibei Hou Xuankang nodded without comment. Although he felt that what Xuan Cang said was reasonable, he had a hunch that his son-in-law seemed not that simple.
Xuankang turned to look at his top aide, Fu Baichuan: "Baichuan, what do you think?"
"Master Marquis, I think this is a good thing!" Fu Baichuan, who was in his forties and wearing a Confucian robe, calmly wiped the tea from his face: "Our county is not stable internally, so how can we spare the time to take care of Langya?"
The country had previously ordered the eldest son not to withdraw his troops because of human sentiments.
Now that the Li family's children are quite powerful in Langya Kingdom, our Huaibei Army can naturally withdraw. The eldest lady of Ye Province is worried about the eldest son's safety and complains to the Marquis every day!"
"Baichuan's words are good!" Huaibei Hou Xuankang nodded in approval. Fu Baichuan is a sensible person.
He had no interest in Langya Kingdom in the first place. If Qingyang Marquis Li Longji hadn't assured him that everything was safe and promised to give him Black Valley City, he wouldn't have sent troops.
Ever since the battle in Langya King's City, he had felt that the affairs of Langya Kingdom were uncontrollable and wanted to get out. This time he was given a chance.
"When you come, please immediately send an order to the eldest son to withdraw your troops. We, the Huaibei Army, will no longer participate in the affairs of Langya Kingdom!"
"The Marquis is wise!" Everyone clasped their fists in salute, and there was no objection.
After half an hour, after arrangements were made for the suppression of bandits in the county, Huaibei Hou Xuankang left the meeting hall. This matter had spread throughout the government.
