    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 705

    Chen Ru is stationed around the Marshal's mansion in Pingyong Mansion with heavy troops from the Fifth Army, which is tantamount to putting Marshal Chen Ru under house arrest.

    Seeing that there was no way to escape Pingyong Mansion quietly, Chen Ru also realized the seriousness of the problem, because he was already under house arrest.

    "You go over the wall and report the news yourself, and ask Xiao Yu and the other army commanders not to return to Pingyong Mansion, so as not to fall into Luo Dagang's trap."

    After Chen Ru returned to the mansion, he quickly summoned the trusted captain of the personal guard to him, trying to spread the news.

    Because if Chen Xiaoyu and the others come back, not only Chen Xiaoyu will marry Luo Dagang, but also if the other regiment leaders object, they may be killed by Luo Dagang.

    "This is the commander-in-chief's seal, and you take it with you. If there is anything wrong with me, Xiao Yu will be the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army. She will lead her troops to avenge me."

    While Chen Ru was speaking, he also handed over the seals symbolizing the authority of the commander-in-chief to the captain of the personal guard, asking him to take him out of Pingyong Mansion.

    "Marshal, I will stay here to protect you, and I will let my trustworthy brothers go out to spread the message."

    The captain of the personal guard can be regarded as an old man who followed Chen Ru. He knew that once he left, he might never see Chen Ru again.

    Moreover, he was unwilling to leave the commander-in-chief Chen Ru in such a dangerous place, and wanted to stay and protect Chen Ru.

    "Now in the Marshal's Mansion, you are the only person I trust."

    Chen Ru couldn't help sighing as he looked at the captain of the personal guard who was unwilling to leave.

    Because he, as the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army, has now fallen to such a point, a sense of sadness pervades.

    "Marshal, someone in the personal guard was bribed. It's because of my laxity. I'm guilty" The captain of the personal guard also lowered his head in shame.

    "It's too late to say anything now, you should leave tonight, otherwise it will be difficult for Luo Dagang and the others to step up their guard." Chen Ru said.

    "But Marshal, what will you do if I leave?" the captain of the personal guard asked.

    Chen Ru said seriously: "Luo Dagang won't dare to kill me for a while, even if he kills me, his plot will not succeed."

    Under Chen Ru's repeated urging, the captain of the personal guard had no choice but to obey Chen Ru's order, received the commander's seal, and quietly prepared to climb over the wall and leave the mansion.

    Because the several gates of the Marshal's Mansion are guarded by the troops of Luo Dagang's Fifth Army, it is impossible to get out at all.

    Chen Ru's personal guard captain left quietly with impressions, and there was no movement outside, so Chen Ru went to bed in peace.

    Early the next morning, Chen Ru was woken up by the noise outside, opened the door and saw Luo Dagang, the commander of the Fifth Army, broke into the Marshal's Mansion with a large number of murderous soldiers.

    Although the guards of the Marshal's Mansion tried to stop the soldiers of the Fifth Army who broke in, the sharp swords were soon on their necks.

    "General Luo, what are you doing?!"

    Standing on the steps, Marshal Chen Ru also had a sullen look on his face when he saw what happened in the mansion.

    "Report to Commander, we are searching for spies!"

    Luo Dagang, covered in armor, walked up to Chen Ru with strides, and spoke loudly.

    "A spy? What spy?" Chen Ru asked in a deep voice.

    Luo Dagang waved to the back, and an officer of the Fifth Army threw a bloody head at Chen Ru's feet.

    "Commander, this person stole the commander's seal last night and wanted to escape from Pingyong Mansion. Fortunately, he was captured and killed by our patrol team. Otherwise, if the commander's seal is lost and taken by the enemy, the consequences will be disastrous."

    Luo Dagang pointed to the head that was still on the ground, looking loyal and thinking of the Qinghe army.

    And Chen Ru carefully identified the head. It was the captain of the personal guard who fled with his commander's seal under his order.

    Seeing his trusted captain of the personal guard being beheaded by Luo Dagang, Chen Ru was also filled with anger.

    "Take everyone in the mansion back and interrogate them strictly!"

    Luo Dagang didn't even look at the extremely ugly Chen Ru, and immediately ordered loudly.

    "They are all from the Marshal's Mansion, I trust them."

    Chen Ru also knew that once these people were taken away by Luo Dagang, they might never come back again, so he tried to keep them.

    "Marshal, I just brought them back for interrogation. I will never wrong a good person, nor will I wrong a bad person."

    "Besides, I will strictly investigate adultery.??, also for the sake of the commander's safety, please ask the commander-in-chief to learn from it.  "

    "Marshal, General Luo is doing this for your own good. You must not disappoint General Luo's good intentions." Chief of Staff Wu Yanqing also came over to persuade Chen Ru.

    Although Chen Ru is a commander-in-chief, he can't even protect the people around him. He feels a deep sense of powerlessness.

    "You guys, take the commander back to the house. From today on, you will protect the commander personally. If the commander has any good or bad, I will ask you!"

    Wu Yanqing, chief of staff, nuzzled and gave instructions to several soldiers of the Fifth Army.

    "No!"

    "Master, please¡ª"

    Several members of the fifth army with fierce faces immediately stepped forward and surrounded Chen Ru indistinctly.

    Chen Ru was "invited" back to the house by these soldiers, while Chen Ru's personal guards outside were disarmed and taken away by Luo Dagang's men, even the serving maids and others were taken away.

    In just a short while, Chen Ru's commander-in-chief's mansion was completely replaced by members of Luo Dagang's Fifth Army, and Chen Ru became completely alone.

    The handsome seal was sent back to Chen Ru's desk again, but the handsome seal was stained with blood, which belonged to the captain of Chen Ru's personal guard.

    "I hurt you."

    Thinking of the captain of the personal guard who was beheaded, Chen Ru was also filled with grief and indignation.

    But now both inside and outside the mansion are Luo Dagang's people, and Chen Ru, the marshal, has become a prisoner and has completely lost his freedom.

    "General, how do you deal with those people?"

    There are more than 400 people arrested in Chen Ru's Marshal's Mansion. In addition to the personal guards, there are also servant girls and grooms.

    "Kill it."

    Facing the request from the people below, Luo Dagang, the general Long Xiang, was merciless and ordered to kill all the people in the general's mansion.

    "No!"

    After the officer who asked for instructions responded, he strode away immediately.

    "General Luo, since you have already torn your face, why don't you take advantage of the trend and clear up some people who support the commander in chief."

    Wu Yanqing, the chief of staff, saw that Luo Dagang was so decisive in killing all the people in the Marshal's Mansion, so he also made a suggestion, hoping to expand the scope of the purge.

    "fair enough."

    After being reminded by Wu Yanqing, Chief of Staff, Luo Dagang nodded in agreement.

    Under Luo Dagang's order, a large number of soldiers from the Fifth Corps of the Qinghe Army were ordered to march into Pingyong Mansion, and martial law was enforced throughout the city.

    The Fifth Army took action in the prefecture of Pingyong Prefecture and several counties under their control in the name of arresting spies.

    All the generals and officials at all levels who supported Chen Ru were arrested and beheaded in the name of spies.

    In just a few days, Luo Dagang and the others killed nearly a thousand people, and some officers of the Fifth Army that were only appointed by Chen Ru were wiped out.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
