After General Liu and General Xu had discussed it, they immediately went to General Cheng to express their loyalty.
And to show their loyalty.
They also persuaded a general who also had a thousand soldiers under his command.
The man was blinded by the bright future promised by General Liu, and he wished he could rush to the capital right now to kneel before the Fourth Prince, the future emperor, to express his loyalty.
General Cheng was very satisfied when he looked at the three people below him.
Several people gathered together to plot.
General Cheng had an evil smile on his face.
Aren’t those wolf cubs from the Fei family showing off in front of him?
snort!
Before he left, he made sure to give them a gift that they would never forget.

During the time that the Cheng family was in the western border, the city was not captured by foreigners.
But the soldiers suffered countless casualties, and even the border defenses were figured out.
What is left for the Fei family now is just a bunch of mess.
No matter how brave and fearless Fei Yunsong and Fei Yanche were on the battlefield, they were still subject to many constraints.
Just when several members of the Fei family were concentrating on the battlefield and planning to deal with the Cheng family after the war was over, General Cheng had already made plans to leave.
…
In the dim room, General Cheng whispered, "Tell your men to keep their mouths shut. If anyone dares to leak the news before leaving, they will be punished by military law!"
Several people whispered back, “Yes!”
There are now 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Western Border, but General Cheng has only 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command.
Moreover, the soldiers under the Fei family are all top-notch fighters on the battlefield.

Even during the time when the Fei family was not in the Western Territory and the Cheng family gave them random orders, they still managed to survive thanks to their strong fighting power.
So don't think too much.
Whether in terms of the number or quality of troops, General Cheng did not dare to confront the Fei family head-on.
If they fight with the Fei family, it will definitely be a one-sided situation.
In order to buy time for their departure, try to delay the Fei family as much as possible.
The Cheng family used spies to steal the new defense map set up by Fei Yunsong.
Then he secretly gave the new border defense map to foreigners.
Wen Yunlan, who was leading the troops, was ambushed by outsiders who knew the defense map in advance and suffered serious injuries in the shoulder.
But the fighting on the front line was intense, so Fei Yunsong and Fei Yanche left Wen Yunlan in the city to recuperate and went back to the battlefield.
At this time, in the former Wuding Palace, which was ignored by everyone, the Cheng family was moving valuable things from the palace onto the carriage.

At a glance, all the valuable items on display had been looted.
General Cheng himself was still searching in Fei Yunsong's original study in the Wuding Palace.
General Cheng frowned, full of confusion.
It is impossible that there is no secret room in such a huge palace.
When the Fei family was urgently recalled to Beijing, they didn't take much with them, so General Cheng suspected that it was a secret room.
But he searched the study and bedroom inside and out several times, but still had no clue.
Now that he was about to leave, but could only take so few things with him, General Cheng felt depressed.
There was indeed a secret room in Prince Wuding's palace, but it was in an abandoned courtyard in the palace, and General Cheng had found the wrong place from the beginning.
Just before departure, General Cheng failed to find the Fei family's secret room as he had hoped.
The 20,000 troops under his command had quietly gathered together, waiting for General Cheng's order to leave the western border.

It will take quite some time to get to the capital.
After General Cheng and several of his generals conspired, they took advantage of the fact that Fei Yanche and others were focused on the battlefield and had no time to pay attention to them, and stole a lot of food and grass from the western border.
Carrying too much food and fodder with them would not be conducive for their departure. If the Fei family members were to find out, they would most likely be delayed by the food and fodder.
Therefore, apart from the necessary amount of food and fodder from the western border to the capital, General Cheng did not greedily bring more.
However, he would not be so kind as to let the Fei family stay.
General Cheng turned his head and looked fiercely in the direction of the palace.
If Fei Yunsong and the others had not returned, this Western Territory would have belonged to his Cheng family, and even these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses would have been his.
Now he can only leave with 20,000 soldiers.
But, hum!
When the Fourth Prince successfully succeeds to the throne, his Cheng family will be royal relatives and will have the merit of following the emperor.

When the time comes, all the members of the Fei family will be put in jail!
Thinking viciously in his heart, he sternly ordered his men.
"Two hours after we leave, set a few fires in the granary."
"You have done a good job. You will get benefits in the future."
The person he chose to do this was an inconspicuous cook in the kitchen.
Thinking of the good life that General Cheng had promised him, the soldier agreed readily.
He had thought it all out. He would throw a few fires and then hide in the crowd. It would be very chaotic and no one would notice him.
But as long as this matter is done well, General Cheng will send someone to pick him up and give him a high position and generous salary. He will then marry a yard of women and live a fairy-like life.
General Cheng looked at the inconspicuous cook in front of him with a greedy look on his face and felt disdain in his heart.
Once he finishes his job, he won't care about the man's life or death.
