Upon seeing the human head on the ground, Ma Dai's head buzzed.
She raised her head and looked at Lin Yu with angry eyes.
"Young Marshal Lin, do you know what the consequences will be after you kill Captain Zhang?"
Although Zhang Hongxing attempted to assassinate Lin Yu before, it was ultimately unsuccessful!
But now Lin Yu is actually killing people, and they are members of the Zhang family!
This feud has become huge!
It could very well lead to war!
Lin Yu said calmly, "I never consider the consequences of my actions, because there is nothing in this world that I cannot bear! Go back and tell the Zhang family that if they want an apology, they should bring Zhang Hongxing to justice and punish him according to military law! Otherwise, don't blame me for personally leading troops to suppress them!"
"you!"
Ma Dai was so angry that his face turned red. He nodded emphatically, "Alright, I've remembered what Young Marshal Lin said. I will convey it to the elders verbatim. Farewell!"
Ma Dai turned and left in anger.
The military tent reeked of blood.
Feng Jiu looked disgusted and prepared to have the body cleaned up.
Lin Yu waved his hand, walked over himself, and kicked the head.
Suddenly, a white worm began to wriggle in the blood plasma.
Feng Jiu's expression changed, "Young Marshal, this is..."
Lin Yu uttered calmly, "Gu—worm!"
"Gu worms?"
Feng Jiu seemed to suddenly realize, "So that's why this kid was so bold and spouted such nonsense, he was being controlled by someone?"
Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, "It seems that someone is deliberately trying to provoke a war!"
...
Yandu.
Before Ma Dai returned, news of Zhang Hongguang's beheading by Lin Yu had already reached Yandu.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
The military intelligence office was instantly in an uproar.
"What does this brat from the Lin family want to do?"
"This is a declaration of war against our aristocratic clans!"
"This is absolutely outrageous!"
"Damn it, if he wants war, then let's fight!!"
Several radical elders, filled with righteous indignation, began to hurl insults.
Now, even the elders who had previously opposed war changed their minds.
At this moment, only Yang Zonghua remained silent.
After all, now that his son has returned to Yandu to help, if a war breaks out, the Yang family will be the first to suffer.
Zhang Yi's face was grim. He said to Yang Zonghua, "Old Yang, what are you still thinking about at a time like this? This brat from the Lin family is already riding on our backs. Are you still going to put up with it?"
Yang Zonghua shook his head. "Old Zhang, don't get agitated. Judging from the news that came back, the responsibility for this breakdown in negotiations lies entirely with your Zhang Hongguang! He's just a lowly captain, yet he dared to insult his commander to his face and even humiliate the commander's mother! Wasn't he deliberately provoking that Lin family brat?"
In Yang Zonghua's opinion, Zhang Hongguang's death was not unjust at all.
But Zhang Yi heard these words differently. He glared at him and shouted, "What do you mean? He killed members of my Zhang family, and the responsibility is still mine?"
Others couldn't stand it anymore and started to speak up.
"Even if the young man's tone was a bit arrogant, it doesn't warrant the death penalty!"
"That's right! To kill someone in public, and a captain at that, is utterly lawless!"
“Our clans are of one blood, and this child is representing us in the negotiations. His actions are so ruthless; isn’t he a slap in the face to all of us?”
The elders all showed their dissatisfaction.
If the other party had only given Zhang Hongguang a beating, that would have been fine.
But murder is a completely different matter!
This is a declaration of war against their aristocratic families!
Yang Zonghua was speechless after being confronted, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Wu Tiande suddenly spoke up, “Old Yang! I think you’re worrying too much! This matter is now crystal clear! This little bastard doesn’t take our clans seriously at all! Now he’s killing members of the Zhang family, but in the future he might kill members of my Wu family, your Yang family, or even everyone here! If we continue to tolerate him, he will definitely become a major threat to our clans. For the sake of our clans, and for the sake of our country and the world, this child must not be allowed to live any longer!”
Yang Zonghua felt helpless and said with a bitter face, "Old Wu, you make it sound so easy! The Futu Army is known as the strongest in the Nine Provinces. If this battle starts, the heavens and earth will surely collapse! What's more, my son only brought a part of the main force. We can't be sure of anything! If Yandu falls, what strength will our families have left to speak here? We'll probably just be at their mercy!"
Wu Tiande waved his hand, "You don't need to worry about that. Now that the tone has been set and we're going to fight, let's jointly submit another memorial to recall all the tribes of Kyushu! As long as the tribes come to our aid, are we afraid we can't win?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
No matter how strong the Buddha Army is, it is nothing more than a tiger.
Can a tiger fend off a pack of wolves?
With eight against one, there's no way they could lose!
I agree!
"Recall all tribes in Kyushu!"
I second that!
The elders all echoed this sentiment.
Yang Zonghua was still somewhat hesitant and said, "But don't forget, even if we draft a memorial, it still needs the Grand Secretary's approval. If the Grand Secretary doesn't approve it, the memorial won't be effective!"
Everyone was taken aback.
Because what Yang Zonghua said was true.
After all, the final decision-maker in the cabinet is still the Grand Secretary.
Although the Grand Secretary has been bedridden recently, some important matters still require his personal approval.
At this moment, Wu Tiande suddenly sneered, "What's the big deal? The Grand Secretary is seriously ill and unable to handle state affairs. If we all sign this together, do you think the commanders of each department would dare to disobey?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Even if the Grand Secretary is not here.
