Chapter 283 The Killing Intent Gradually Arises

The person who spoke was the Nei Shi of the dynasty, who was in charge of taxes, money and grain.

If it was not busy on weekdays, the army's pay and supplies were also dispatched by the Nei Shi and several scholars under his command.

And now, the Nei Shi was bowing to Gong Menquan and explaining.

"This is the smoke from the morning meal. Just now, the army camp was beating the drums, calling on all the soldiers to return to the camp for dinner."

After hearing this, Gong Menquan had two more black lines on his forehead.

Is this not even pretending?

Even if you say that it was mistaken for the beacon fire lit by the beacon tower, he would feel a little comforted in his heart.

No.

"Now we are in wartime. Do you have to say that you will fight again after I finish my meal when fighting with the enemy?!"

"Of course." The Nei Shi answered without hesitation.

"The dynasty has regulations, the law is not merciful, and the law cannot be abolished."

"In order to prevent soldiers from neglecting morning training, there are regulations in the camp. Those who beat the drums but do not return to the camp will be punished by military law!"

Is that so?

Gongmenquan felt that it was unexpectedly reasonable, but at the same time, he felt that something was a bit strange.

In the end, he had to give up.

But he would not easily let go of such a guy who had caused him bad luck.

"Which idiot made this rule? I, Si Tu, have always said that I should love soldiers like my own sons."

"You should be demoted to the third rank and fined for five years for treating soldiers so harshly."

"You made the rule." The internal historian suddenly spoke.

Gongmenquan's words instantly got stuck in his throat.

He looked at the internal historian with a bad face.

Why did these usually shrewd Nine Ministers speak so without thinking today, and did not give him any way out.

He was even more choked and could not even continue talking.

"Let's just leave it at that."

After a while, Gongmenquan no longer pursued who was responsible, but just watched coldly as the imperial guards gradually withdrew from the forbidden area and returned to the camp to eat.

This matter was just exposed.

But in addition to the imperial guards, he was not without soldiers.

Thinking of this, Gongmenquan turned around and looked at the civil and military officials.

"You all brought a lot of private soldiers today, right?"

When saying this, many officials' faces changed.

Although the imperial guards retreated, the number of people present was not even half less, precisely because of the private soldiers brought by these civil and military officials.

In common sense, even if private soldiers enter the battlefield, they will not participate in front-line combat.

Their most important responsibility is to protect their own officials so that they can evacuate safely from the battlefield.

But now that Gongmenquan mentioned it.

I am afraid that it is impossible not to hand it over.

"I am willing to offer a thousand private soldiers for your use."

Soon someone took the lead in expressing his position.

Then more people handed over their military power one after another.

In addition to Gongmenquan's own people, it was easy to crush the undead lords by more than ten times in terms of numbers.

Gongmenquan snorted coldly.

"This time, I want to see what kind of trouble they can cause me."

Above the demon-suppressing tower in the distance, Wu Mei had seen all the events since the previous honeycomb cannon.

So she was inevitably moved.

Among the civil and military officials, there were actually people who were willing to openly trip up the three ministers in the palace to protect her.

She, the great empress Wu, did not seem to be as unsuccessful as she imagined.

And Gao Qiang rubbed his chin.

He knew.

The two scenes of whether to fight or not just now must have been caused by those dignitaries who secretly pledged allegiance to him.

But it's nothing if it happens again and again.

If it happens again and again, no matter how reasonable the reason is, Gongmenquan should have realized that something is wrong.

And apart from the three nine ministers and fifteen literati who secretly pledged allegiance to him, more than half of the civil and military officials still support Gongmenquan.

Then the next battle may have to be fought.

After receiving a large number of private soldiers from civil and military officials, Gongmenquan's command this time did not cause any trouble.

Heavy infantrymen holding swords and shields arrived at the front line and soon fought with the undead lords.

But some of them fell to the ground and pretended to be dead after just one collision.

Gongmenquan did not feel any surprise about this.

It is human nature to be afraid of death.

After all, they are private soldiers with low organization, and most of them are willing to fight, which is already a very good situation.

What's more, his power is more than that.

The sound of mechanical rotation sounded.

The bronze warriors on Gongmenquan's side took the lead and stepped into the battlefield with a big stride.

The huge body and crushing combat power made the bronze warriors crush a large number of undead lords as soon as they entered the battlefield.

They were directly crushed into bone powder, the kind that could not be crushed anymore.

This posture like the god of war descending to the earth also caused the private soldiers to cheer, as if they had seen victory in sight.

After all, they had just fought with the Undead Lords.

Only after the fight did they understand.

These moving skeletons were not as powerful as imagined.

In this case, what else should they be afraid of?

"Kill!!!"

"Exorcist, Dad and Mom, I am a promising child."

"......"

Different voices came from all around the Demon Suppression Tower.

It is conceivable that Gongmenquan's desire to fight is soaring.

Until, dozens of bronze figurines under the Demon Suppression Tower suddenly moved.

Ling Yaning dragged his injured body and crawled out from a corner.

She was already wounded, and restarting so many bronze warriors and changing the enemy's judgment was not a simple project.

If these bronze warriors were not Chai Hong's assets, Ling Yaning would not be able to activate them so easily.

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."

Ling Yaning raised the corners of her mouth and smiled reluctantly despite the pain.

These special bronze warriors set off a bloody storm the moment they rushed into the private soldiers' line.

It also caused the other party's just excited spirit to soften instantly.

A soldier looked at the bronze warriors carrying various weapons and killing them, and seemed to be scared.

This kind of behemoth-level war weapon.

In a sense, it is much more terrifying than the undead.

"Grand Situ, let's retreat first!"

Weiwei, one of the Nine Ministers, suggested behind Gong Menquan.

"No, it's just a few bronze warriors."

When Gongmenquan spoke, he didn't notice that Weiwei's eyes had become fierce, and his hand gradually fell on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

He still lacked a reason.

This accidental fierce light was captured by the undead wizard Fox in his empty eye sockets.

He laughed two eerie and terrifying laughs.

Fox came to Gao Qiangjin and said mysteriously: "I didn't expect you to have connections in the Dawu Palace."

"In this case, I have a good idea to give you a perfect reason to kill Gongmenquan."

As he said, Fox tore off his tattered cloak.

This seemingly inconspicuous rag is actually a strange object.

[Ghost Blindness (Strange Object)]

[Effect: Consumable, change the appearance of any race member in the field to the appearance of the race you choose, and the difference in size before and after the change shall not exceed 10%, and the duration is one day. ]

This was originally a prop that Fox intended to use to let the undead lords escape from the imperial city.

But now, it seems to have a better use.
