Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 664: We need some drastic measures

After King Fu retreated to the two cities, he was also actively recruiting soldiers and storing grass and grain.

He is a person who never gives up. Once he sets a goal, he will stick to it.

Frustration is not easy for anyone to bear.

But King Fu and his subordinates all believed that all this was a test from God. It would never be so smooth sailing to become the emperor.

In the past few years, they faced large armies and were almost undefeated in every battle.

Besides, they still have more than 100,000 elite troops at their disposal. How could they easily withdraw from this competition?

Seeing that the battlefield ahead was calm, Lin Feng stopped counterattacking his own side after defeating the Black Scarf Army.

King Fu was also happy to recuperate and continue to strengthen his war preparations.

At this time, King Fu was sitting in the study, looking at the information in his hand, and his mood finally returned to his previous joy.

Because this information comes from the city of Kyoto.

Intelligence shows that when Lin Feng arrived in Beijing to serve as the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, he encountered resistance from the Imperial Guards.

The two sides had a disagreement, and the entire Royal Guard system is currently divided into two parts.

The former imperial guards, led by Grand Tutor Wan, accounted for the majority.

And it is precisely this large group of people that King Fu is not worried about.

Lin Feng only received 30,000 imperial guards, and they were still in the process of reorganization and training.

Although Lin Feng was dangerous, he was unable to fight against him with only 30,000 to 50,000 men.

King Fu was summoning Lan Yu to discuss how to widen the differences between Lin Feng and the Imperial Guards.

If Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army was excluded from the Dazong court.

As long as the Zhenxi Army lets go, King Fu's chance will come.

After discussing it, the two men decided that Lin Feng was the biggest obstacle to King Fu's ascension to the throne, and that they must go all out.

Since Lin Feng's forces could not be eliminated for the time being, the hidden insiders in Kyoto City were activated and every effort was made to widen the rift between the Imperial Guards and the Zhenxi Army, preferably to make the two sides turn against each other.

Finally, the imperial court intervened, instigated the ministers, and forced Lin Feng to withdraw from the battle.

King Fu is stepping up his conspiracy against Lin Feng.

Zhao Shuo was looking worriedly at a team of cavalrymen under the city.

Leading the charge was the Imperial Guard, commander of the personal guard camp, and general Zhao Gui.

This time they came for the bet between the two parties.

This Zhao Gui has been better than himself since childhood and is often praised by his elders.

Especially the emperor's praise made him feel very inferior in front of him. Even at home, he was often compared to himself by his father.

"Zhao Shuo, open the city gates quickly. I'm here to fulfill my bet with you."

Zhao Gui shouted loudly, as if he had already won.

Zhao Shuo also understood that Zhao Gui was playing tricks on him. In three days, he could find many soldiers who could barely meet the requirements from other soldiers who had withdrawn from the Imperial Guards, and then bring them into his own team.

These soldiers were eliminated by the Zhenxi Army and no longer belonged to the 11th and 9th Battalions.

Therefore, even if Zhao Gui participated in the bet, it would not be considered cheating.

Zhao Shuo was helpless. He leaned against the battlement of the city wall and stared blankly at the arrogant Zhao Gui below the city.

"What are you yelling about? My elder brother won't let you into the city."

There was no other way, Zhao Shuo had to move Lin Feng out to help.

He originally wanted to find Lin Feng for help, but Lin Feng had no time to pay attention to them.

"Zhao Shuo, please explain clearly why the deputy commander won't let us enter the city?"

"What are you talking about? How dare I question the Deputy Commander's orders?"

Zhao Gui glared at Zhao Shuo.

"Are you making an excuse and not daring to gamble?"

"You're the one making excuses. I'm the Champion Marquis and General Wei. When have I ever been a coward?"

"Then open the door."

"My eldest brother won't allow it. He said the situation is tense lately and all troops are forbidden to enter the city."

"Hey..."

Zhao Gui was speechless. Since they wouldn't let him in, he had no idea what to do.

After thinking for a moment, he raised his finger and pointed at Zhao Shuo and shouted.

"Zhao Shuo, just wait and see if I have the ability to enter the city."

After saying this, he waved his hand and galloped back along the road.

Lin Feng was at the command center, listening to Cheng Liang's report.

In the past few days, Cheng Liang's 500 patrol teams have been lying in ambush around Qiancheng, waiting for Jiao Sanqiang to appear.

However, Jiao Sanqiang was like a rabbit that smelled danger. He stayed in the city and refused to come out.

With only 500 men, Cheng Liang did not dare to attack other people's city.

Not to mention that there are 30,000 imperial guards stationed inside, even if there were only 3,000, they would not be able to break in facing such a high wall.

Jiao Sanqiang certainly knew that he had offended Lin Feng.

Not only did he not obey Lin Feng's orders, he also participated in stealing Lin Feng's credit.

I really made a name for myself in front of His Majesty.

I am currently waiting for the order from above to upgrade myself.

At this time, he was staying in his residence in the city, wondering whether he should give some money to the Grand Tutor.

At this critical moment, he was determined not to leave the camp.

Zhao Shuo lowered his head and walked to Lin Feng's command center and glanced at Cheng Liang.

"Why, Jiao Sanqiang is hard to catch, right?"

Cheng Liang sighed, "It's not just hard to catch him, it's impossible to catch him at all."

Zhao Shuo chuckled and said, "You're a new official, so you've made three big moves, and you've already messed up the first one."

Cheng Liang said with a sad face: "I didn't expect this to be so difficult right from the start."

Lin Feng waved his hand to interrupt them.

"I didn't expect you to catch Jiao Sanqiang. I just wanted to send him a signal to restrain himself and stop messing with me."

Zhao Shuo shook his head: "Brother, these people won't learn their lesson. We need to give them some strong medicine."

"As for strong medicine... I have it. Let me think about it first."

Seeing that Lin Feng was thinking about this, Zhao Shuo quickly moved closer.

"Brother, I have something to ask of you. I wonder if I should tell you or not?"

Lin Feng glanced at Zhao Shuo and said, "Let's not talk about it anymore. I don't have time."

"Hey, big brother, if you don't save me, I will be taken to the Royal Guard Camp by Zhao Gui in two days."

Zhao Shuo complained tearfully.

"Tsk, how could Zhao Gui have such ability? Give him some courage."

Lin Feng said disdainfully.

"No, big brother, I made a bet with him a few days ago, but he turned out to be a shady guy."

Zhao Shuo then told Lin Feng what happened.

"It's obvious that Zhao Gui must have used the past three days to find some soldiers who had withdrawn from our Eleventh Battalion. With a little training, they will be able to meet the standards."

Lin Feng frowned and thought about it.

"I told you at the beginning that any officer or soldier who voluntarily withdraws from the 11th and 9th Battalions will be deemed to have resigned from the military. If they dare to show up in the camp again, they will be considered spies. How dare they come back?"

Zhao Shuo blinked.

"They wouldn't dare to come back even if it meant their lives, but with Zhao Gui in charge, they're not afraid anymore."

Lin Feng pointed at Cheng Liang.

"The patrol team is here, just in time to correct the military discipline for me. No one else can stop me."

Cheng Liang immediately straightened up and answered loudly.

Zhao Shuo was so happy that he didn't even look at his eyes. He thought that if Zhao Gui dared to come over again, he would definitely suffer a great loss.

While they were talking, a soldier came running in to report.

"Report, General, General Zhao Gui of the Imperial Guard has come to see you, bearing the King Rui's order."

Lin Feng nodded: "Yes, let him take off his armor and surrender his weapons, and only twenty followers are allowed to enter the city."
