Chapter 3444 Fight for me, bleed for me
Nan Yan, who was still staying in the tent, was also sweating all over at this time.
Although the tent was still some distance away, the sounds of so many soldiers shouting excitedly could still reach her ears clearly. Hearing these people eager to go over and take revenge, her hands and feet felt cold.
no!
We must not let them do this!
Although she was very clear about Zhu Feng's purpose of going south this time, and she also understood that the relationship between Yan State and Yue State could not continue in the current form of trade, to be precise, she understood that there would be a war between the two sides in the end.
But for some reason, she felt that it was not the right time yet.
At least, it shouldn't be like this now, where you attack immediately after being provoked by the other party.
But she also understood that the situation in the army was different from that in the court, where she could not think calmly before making a decision. With so many people so excited, even if she was not carried away by her emotions, it would be difficult to go against their wishes.
Plus Zhu Feng——
Although his temper had improved over the years, it didn't mean he could be bullied. Nan Yan knew very well that even though they had rarely fought in recent years, once on the battlefield, Zhu Feng would return to his former brave and combative self.
That's the real him!
This time...
Thinking of this, Nan Yan broke out in a cold sweat. She couldn't help but walk to the door, stretching her neck to listen to the news outside. She didn't know what she could do if something really happened.
"Your Majesty, please order the troops to be dispatched!"
"That's right, let the Vietnamese pay with blood!"
"If we continue to tolerate this, they will ride on our heads!"
Zhu Feng stood in the military camp, looking at the angry faces around him. His roars reached the sky, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
But he didn't say anything.
Xiang Yuanbo was so anxious that his face flushed. He simply knelt before Zhu Feng and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to dispatch the troops!"
“…”
Zhu Feng looked down at him, then at the soldiers around him. They all followed Xiang Yuanbo, knelt before him, and said in unison, "Your Majesty, please give the order to send the troops!"
Li Bushang, who was following behind Zhu Feng, saw this scene and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He stared at Zhu Feng without blinking.
Faced with the excited emotions of so many people in front of him, and the fact that the emperor himself came from a military background, he knew too well that if he condoned the other party's offensive behavior on the border, it would only make the other party become more and more aggressive, and the border soldiers would face greater threats in the future. So at this time, the result was already obvious.
Just as everyone held their breath, waiting for Zhu Feng's order, he finally spoke.
But the sound was so low that it seemed to come from deep underground.
"You're not allowed to go."
Upon hearing these three words, Li Bushang could hardly believe his ears. He stared at Zhu Feng's back with wide eyes.
Xiang Yuanbo and the others were also shocked: "Your Majesty!"
Zhu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, appearing calm, yet a hint of danger emanated from his seemingly calm demeanor. He said, "I repeat, you are not allowed to go."
Xiang Yuanbo was anxious: "Your Majesty, why can't you send troops?"
The soldiers around were also anxious. They started talking at once, and some of them couldn't hold back and rushed forward. The crowd kept gathering around Zhu Feng.
Upon seeing this situation, the guards around Zhu Feng suddenly became nervous.
This is the military camp. His Majesty the Emperor came to the military camp in person this time, bringing only these guards with him. However, if a mutiny occurs due to the excitement among the crowd, it would be a big deal.
But at this moment, the anger of these soldiers was obviously not appeased, but became even more intense under the emperor's deliberate suppression.
This can't go on!
Delu saw that something was wrong and immediately turned around and ran towards the big tent.
Several guards were already standing in front of Zhu Feng. One of them whispered, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please first—"
Before he could even utter the word "retreat", he felt someone holding down his shoulder and pushing him aside. The guard opened his eyes wide and saw the emperor take two steps forward, looking at the soldiers coldly without saying a word.
For a moment, the entire military camp was frozen.
There was a kind of cruelty that came from nowhere and turned into an invisible net in an instant, covering the entire military camp and even everyone's head. Only the officers and soldiers standing in the front could clearly know that the suffocating feeling of oppression was emanating from His Majesty the Emperor in front of them.
The tiger is in its twilight years, but its might remains.
What's more, he is not old.
It had simply been too long since he had led his troops and personally fought in battles. However, the murderous aura within him, which had been cultivated through countless battles, had not diminished in the slightest due to his years of luxury. On the contrary, the more critical the situation, the more his domineering aura was aroused.
The soldiers standing at the front, who originally wanted to rush forward, were all speechless at this moment.
They were sweating profusely, as if facing a ferocious tiger, and began to retreat involuntarily.
The soldiers behind seemed to have noticed something, and when the soldiers in front retreated, they also retreated.
After a while, a large area of space became empty in front of Zhu Feng, as if a huge, invisible barrier had been cast down, and no one dared to approach him.
Only at this time did Zhu Feng slowly let out a breath.
He looked down at Xiang Yuanbo, who was kneeling on the ground and looked pale, then looked at the wounded soldiers over there and said coldly: "Take them down to treat their injuries first."
“…”
Although Xiang Yuanbo was resentful, he also understood at this time that they could not defeat the emperor after all.
I could only lower my head and say dejectedly, "Yes."
After he finished speaking, he stood up and called a few people to carry the wounded soldiers away. After this incident, the other soldiers also understood that the emperor would never let them go out to seek revenge, so they lowered their heads dejectedly and retreated one after another.
At this time, Li Bushang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, are we just going to let this matter go?"
When everyone heard this, they immediately raised their heads and looked at him.
Zhu Feng also turned around and looked at him.
He looked at the unwilling eyes of the crowd, thought for a moment, and then slowly said, "I told you not to go now, but I didn't tell you not to go forever."
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
Xiang Yuanbo couldn't help but stand up and was about to ask a question, but Zhu Feng continued, "But, not now."
“…”
"The time is not right, and your blood will be shed in vain."
“…”
"I want your blood to be worthwhile. Every drop of it will make the people of Yue pay a heavy price. At times like this, you should risk your life for me and bleed for me. Do you understand?"
As soon as they heard his words, the depressed mood of the crowd was ignited again.
Everyone excitedly shouted: "Understood!"
"We will bleed for the Emperor!"
"We must make the Vietnamese pay for their blood debt with blood!"
