The Era of Generals

Chapter 199   After the War

"Chen Ze."

In the end, it was Zheng Yuanyun who spoke.

"yes!"

Chen Ze stood up from the chair and obeyed.

"You did a good job this time."

Zheng Yuanyun said indifferently: "It's just that this matter is far from over, and there is another matter. The Lord of the City wants to hear your opinion."

Well done?

Chen Ze sneered inwardly, really... well done.

Regarding his great achievements, Zheng Yuanyun only said that he did a good job and skipped it, and even changed the subject.

But Chen Ze also knew what he was talking about.

Zheng Yuanyun was right about one thing, this matter is not completely over yet.

Bo'an City was taken back, and Zhang Chengwang's large army was also killed in the battle, but the battle of the other two troops was far from over.

The 500,000 army led by Yang Mingzhong went to Nantes Province when Zhang Chengwang entered Bo'an City. Calculating the time, if there were no accidents, one or even two cities should have been captured.

Sealy, Ketan, Tell.

After Zhang Chengwang took most of the troops away from the three important towns in Nantes Province and Bo'an City, their defenses were also empty.

The 500,000 elite soldiers in Yang Minglu's hands were personally selected and trained by Zheng Yuanyun, and they were the real elite troops in Bo'an City.

There is no reason for such troops to capture an empty city that is almost undefended?

Sure enough, after Zheng Yuanyun paused for a moment, the next sentence was: "There is news from Mingzhong that he has successfully captured the city of Tel not long ago, and is currently dividing his troops to march towards Ketan."

"but……"

Zheng Yuanyun looked at Chen Ze and said, "You also know that about a million Zhu Yan troops have returned to defense. Although the Zhu Yan Empire has just suffered a defeat, this force is still double that of Ming Zhong!"

"Right now, Mingzhong's lone army is deep behind the enemy's rear. If the enemy makes dumplings, the loss will be too great."

"When you asked Mingzhong to attack Nantes province, you already thought about the way out?"

"laugh……"

As soon as the words fell, Chen Ze didn't do anything, but Hua Lao who was beside him snorted disdainfully from his nostrils.

Zheng Yuanyun's words couldn't be more clear.

It was you, Chen Ze, who sent Yang Mingzhong to attack Nantes province, so now Yang Mingzhong's troops may be eaten by the Zhu Yan Empire, and this blame is also yours, Chen Ze.

As far as Zheng Yuanyun is concerned, if he hasn't done it, he is naturally not at fault.

But Chen Ze made such an arrangement at the beginning, could it be wrong?

Although Bo'an City was in Zhang Chengwang's hands at that time, he could already foresee that the direction of the war would be beneficial to his own side. In this case, what's wrong with Chen Ze doing things to protect the results of the war?

Zheng Yuanyun could be said to be a little shameless, but what he said inside and outside the meaning was nothing more than Yang Mingzhong's meritorious service—in fact, it was his, and if there was a fault, then it was Chen Ze's fault.

In short, he did not order Yang Mingzhong to attack Nantes province, but only said that Yang Mingzhong would obey Chen Ze's arrangements for all his actions at that time.

This was the reason for Hua Lao's disdain and sneer, but Zheng Yuanyun was completely unmoved, his eyes only fell on Chen Ze's face.

However, Chen Ze knew that Zheng Yuanyun's words were not to throw the blame away, but just to... get him away.

Doesn't the meaning of the words mean that he wants him to lead the army to support Yang Mingzhong?

With Chen Ze in Bo'an City, Zheng Yuanyun would never feel comfortable.

He didn't want to be grateful for saving Bo'an City because of Chen Ze's meritorious deeds, but he just felt that his majesty had been challenged.

He, Zheng Yuanyun, is the actual controller and protector of Bo'an City. If Bo'an City is in trouble, he should have the responsibility to protect it.

But he didn't do it.

Instead, it was Chen Ze who came out of nowhere... No, Zheng Yuanyun knew where Chen Ze came from. Not long ago, this kid was just under his rule, a prostitute from a small family Just follow.

With such a background, he has achieved greater military exploits than a high-ranking adviser at the general level?

The entire Bo'an city was kept safe because of Chen Ze's strategy, even the soldiers and commoners who were celebrating the victory outside, when they knew that it was not Zheng Yuanyun or the respected Hua Lao who guaranteed their safety, then What should they think?

If this matter gets out, how will his prestige be established?

When there is another crisis in Bo'an City in the future, will everyone listen to him or Chen Ze?

It's no wonder that Zheng Yuanyun is stingy, because he has experienced too many struggles for power and profit in his life.

To put it bluntly, he was able to become the city lord of Bo'an City, and he did not know how many corpses and blood seas he had to walk through before finally reaching the top.

Therefore, Zheng Yuanyun will not allow anyone who threatens him to appear, the former Huang Zongbing was like this, and the current Chen Ze is also like this.

It's just that Huang Zongbing happened to be caught by Zheng Yuanyun, and he could take him down during the war without any scruples, but Chen Ze was different.

Although not the entire Bo'an city knew about Chen Ze's great achievements, there were already quite a few who knew about it, for example, everyone in this meeting hall, and for example, the 30,000 elite soldiers assigned to Chen Ze.

If it was said that these people Zheng Yuanyun could barely suppress them, but Hua Lao and Luo Zongbing Luo Bei were also present. These two people could not be controlled by Zheng Yuanyun.

Considering these, Zheng Yuanyun's attitude towards Chen Ze must not be as simple and rude as he was towards Huang Zongbing, but needs to pay attention to some skills.

For example, take this guy away and prevent him from dangling under Zheng Yuanyun's nose in Bo'an City.

Although Chen Ze didn't like tricks, but he had heard a lot from him since he was a child, and he was very clear about Zheng Yuanyun's thoughts.

But this... seems to be good?

"Master Zheng, from what I've seen, the Zhu Yan Empire's one million soldiers are not enough to be feared!"

Facing Zheng Yuanyun's aggressiveness, Chen Ze was confident and responded calmly.

"One million, is it not enough to be afraid of?"

Zheng Yuanyun snorted coldly: "Your tone is not small!"

Chen Zedao: "Your Excellency just mentioned that General Yang has captured a city. If so, then he can use it as a stronghold. As long as he sticks to the city, the catastrophe will be resolved."

"Don't forget, although the Zhuyan Empire still has an army of over one million, their supplies have long been cut off. With their reserves when they left Bo'an City, they didn't get much replenishment along the way. Long."

This was something Chen Ze had already considered when he asked Yang Mingzhong to attack Nantes province, and he also believed that Zheng Yuanyun was equally clear, so he pretended to think about it, and then said: "However, Mr. Zheng's worries are not unreasonable. , then just to be on the safe side..."

"In order to prevent the enemy from jumping over the wall in a hurry and causing unnecessary losses to General Yang, if Master Zheng is trustworthy, I would like to lead the troops to catch up with General Yang and destroy the million remnants in Ke Under Tancheng!"
