After Lin Xiao returned to the Death Scythe branch, he began to deal with the long-standing backlog of government affairs and at the same time investigated the Hell Legion incident.
Linjiang, frontier military base.
One day has passed, and at the frontier military base, it seems that what Lin Xiao expected is happening, and what he expected is happening.
Linjiang Military Base is the largest military base in the entire frontier fortress. It can accommodate 2.4 million permanent legions and is also the most important base in the entire southern theater.
This place has always been managed with the help of the heads of the major families in Linjiang. However, since Zhu Yanqing arrived in Linjiang and implemented the plan to reduce power, the Guan family and the Ji family have transferred 400,000 troops away.
They were placed in other military camps in Linjiang.
However, even if the 400,000-strong army was transferred out, this place is still an important military area, and it is also the most heavily protected area.
A day ago, Lin Xiao dropped his harsh words and asked Ye Qin to hand over military power at 9 o'clock this morning, not to implicate the nine tribes.
But obviously, Ye Qinke did not follow suit.
At this moment, in the conference room of the military base, the heads of the major bases, headed by Zhu Yanqing, were discussing Lin Xiao's matter and how to deal with this angry dragon.
In front of a long conference table, four leaders were sitting, the Crown Prince Zhu Yanqing, the Commander-in-Chief Ye Qin, the Deputy Commander-in-Chief Jiayi, Shangguan Mingjing, as well as the ancestral halls of their respective families, gathered together.
Zhu Yanqing folded his hands on the table, resting his chin on the back of his hands, saying nothing.
And Ye Qin and others sitting aside looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't speak.
Since Ye Qin arrived at the military base yesterday, he has been very annoyed that Zhu Yanqing promised to marry Ye Lingling, but who would have thought that after learning that Lin Xiao was coming, Zhu Yanqing turned around and left.
He didn¡¯t even show up during the whole process, which made Ye Qin extremely angry. However, the other party was the crown prince after all, and he was angry and dared not speak out.
Today¡¯s meeting is also to deal with a major battle that may occur at any time.
At this time, Ye Qin seemed to be a little unable to bear it anymore, and then said: "We have been sitting here for ten minutes, but you guys should come up with an idea. Lin Xiao gave us a warning yesterday. If we don't hand over the military power at nine o'clock today, It implicates the nine tribes."
At this moment, Ye Qin's tone seemed calm, but in fact, he was already panicking inside.
After all, if others don¡¯t know how tyrannical he is, how can the people here not know.
Sitting on the seat behind Ye Qin was a young man in his twenties, dressed in military uniform. His handsome appearance was somewhat similar to Ye Qin. He was lazily lying on the chair with his legs crossed. This young man was no one else. , it is Ye Qin¡¯s eldest son, Ye Yun.
Ye Qin fell behind, and Zhu Yanqing, who had been silent for a long time, finally said, "Don't be anxious, two family heads. Although Lin Xiao asked you to hand over military power at nine o'clock today, he just wants to take back the military power without any bloodshed."
"I don't think you two need to worry. I have investigated it since I came here. The Death Scythe Corps under Lin Xiao's control only has less than 50,000 people guarding the border."
"Fifty thousand versus two million, does he have a chance of winning?"
Hearing this suddenly, Ye Qin frowned and said: "Your Highness, you have been enjoying yourself in Northern Xinjiang all year round, but you don't know the horror of the Death Scythe. Defeating more with less is the Death's Scythe's specialty."
"Even though there are only 50,000, the Death Scythe soldiers are all worth one for a hundred, or even a thousand, especially the Imperial Guards under Lin Xiao. I have never seen them lose a battle."
Hearing Ye Qin¡¯s words, Zhu Yanqing¡¯s face sank slightly, obviously a little unhappy, and said: ¡°General Ye, why are you destroying your prestige and boosting the morale of others? Let me ask, is the Death Scythe a human?¡±
Hearing this, Ye Qin was stunned for a moment and said, "It's a human being."
"Since we are humans and made of flesh and blood, what do you have to worry about? This frontier military base has all kinds of heavy weapons, and there are thousands of secret and open sentries."
"With this level of protection, even a Death Scythe can still rush in regardless of the hail of bullets?"
Zhu Yanqing didn't seem to believe it anymore, so she spoke.
Now Ye Qin knew what Zhu Yanqing was planning, and he looked helpless: "Then your Highness, you mean to let us stay in this military base?"
"That's right, as long as any of you don't leave the military base, Lin Xiao will be unable to do anything to you."
"As long as it lasts a few days and Lin Xiao loses his temper and leads his troops to attack, I will be absolutely sure."?The other party was completely destroyed. "
"I think you have all heard of Zhu Ling, the military god of the last century."
Zhu Yanqing took out a cigar, lit it, and said.
Hearing the words "Army God Zhu Ling", Ye Qin and the other two people were shocked.
"Is that the old military god Zhu Ling who has retired for decades? If he hadn't died, he should be over a hundred years old now."
"In the last century, he was known as a victorious general and had never lost a battle in his life."
Shangguan Mingjing, who had been silent until now, opened his mouth.
"Yes, he is my mentor. Do you think I am just enjoying myself in Northern Xinjiang? Then you are wrong. I have been studying various military arts since I was sensible."
"Coupled with the guidance of my mentor, it is not enough to deal with Lin Xiao."
Zhu Yanqing seems to be quite confident in herself.
This sentence also gave Ye Qin and others a shot in the arm. After all, Lin Xiao was too afraid of them.
"Okay, you will die anyway if you go out. Since Your Highness is absolutely sure, I will risk my life to accompany you and risk the lives of my family."
"If Lin Xiao dares to come, let him never come back!"
Ye Qin hit it off with Zhu Yanqing immediately.
"I agree too."
"I agree too."
Jiayi and Shangguan Mingjing on the side also responded at the same time.
"Okay, just do as I say. If nothing happens, let's go our separate ways," Zhu Yanqing said, then stood up first and left the conference room with a few guards.
Not long after, Shangguan Mingjing, Jiayi and others left one after another.
In an instant, Ye Qin and his son Ye Yun were the only two people left in the huge conference room.
"Dad, I've been here at this military base for a week, and I'm planning to go back today. Why aren't you letting me go back?" Ye Yun stood up slowly at this moment, obviously a little surprised.
"You just stay at the military base and you can't go there. Now Lin Xiao wants our lives. Going out is equivalent to committing suicide."
"Listen to Your Highness, please be patient for the time being."
Ye Qin raised his hand.
Hearing this, Ye Yun's expression immediately changed and he said, "Dad, I can't be here today. Xiaofeng from Cuixianglou passed away today. I'm going to celebrate her. I promised her a week ago."
Hearing this, Ye Qin was immediately furious: "You rebellious son, how many times have I told you not to have anything to do with those prostitutes."
¡°Dad, I haven¡¯t touched a woman for a week,¡± Ye Yun suddenly felt bitter.
