"Marshal Zhengxi, I think he is a cowardly waste!"

In the Mansion of the Lord of Heishui City, Xiao Yan, who had been defeated in battle, was furious.

"General Xiao, isn't it a little too much for you to say that?"

Mu Jianning frowned angrily. If Xiao Yan hadn't missed the opportunity, things wouldn't have gotten so bad.

At that time, Mu Jianning and Gu Jiangliu came to Heishui City with Jiang Li's Yinshou, and asked Xiao Yan, the guard of Heishui City, to send troops to Yinlong Peak.

However, Xiao Yan tried to evade all kinds of excuses, he didn't obey their orders at all, and even tried to prevaricate them with some foreign military orders.

There was no other way, so Mu Jianning had to stay in Heishui City with Gu Jiangliu temporarily, hoping that Xiao Yan could dispatch troops sooner.

Who would have thought that this delay would last for half a month.

During this period of time, no matter how much Mu Jianning and Gu Jiangliu came to persuade him, Xiao Yan thanked the guests behind closed doors and refused to send troops.

In desperation, Mu Jianning had no choice but to discuss with Gu Jiangliu, and temporarily left Heishui City to go to Yinlong Peak to meet Jiang Li.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the army of Xishu suddenly arrived.

The unprepared Heishui City suffered a great loss. If it weren't for the great help of Gu Jiangliu and Mu Jianning, Heishui City might have been broken.

But in this situation, instead of realizing his problem, Xiao Yan poured all the dirty water on Jiang Li's head.

"Excessive?"

Xiao Yan asked back in a strange manner, "As Marshal Zhengxi but not commanding the battle at the front, isn't Jiang Li too much?"

Originally Xiao Yan was very dissatisfied with Jiang Li, the airborne marshal, and Jiang Li killed his cousin Yang Fang in Yinlong Peak, so he was even more against Jiang Li.

What's more, he wasn't the only one who was dissatisfied with Jiang Li, the fifth prince and the others also wanted to get rid of Jiang Li as soon as possible.

"General Xiao is right. From my prince's point of view, Jiang Li is greedy for life and afraid of death. He has really betrayed his father's great trust. The seal ribbon of Marshal Zhengxi should still be used by General Xiao."

The fifth prince's words have already stated his position, he and Xiao Yan stand together.

Hearing this, Mu Jianning became even more angry.

This group of people refused to send troops to delay the opportunity of the war, but they actually slandered Jiang Li and wanted to seize Jiang Li's military power, which is really abhorrent.

"Fifth Prince's words are wrong."

Gu Jiangliu, who has always been aloof and reticent, couldn't help it anymore, "Jiang Li's Marshal position was conferred by His Majesty. Does the fifth prince still want to disobey the emperor's order?"

"Hmph, so what if you disobey the emperor's order?"

The fifth prince said coldly: "As Marshal Zhengxi, I don't think about being loyal to the king and serving the country, but I just want to hide behind to save my life. Even if this prince takes his military power, father will not blame me."

"Gu Jiangliu, the fifth prince has already spoken, don't you want to hand over the Marshal's seal?"

Xiao Yan gave his lieutenant a wink, and the lieutenant immediately led people to surround Gu Jiangliu.

As long as they can take Jiang Li's seal and ribbon here, no one can prove Jiang Li's marshal status.

When the time comes, Jiang Li and the others will not let them slaughter them.

"General Xiao speaks so loudly. He actually wants to grab my seal and ribbon. Doesn't it mean that General Xiao doesn't want this to be his head?"

At this time, a majestic monster Xuanhuo Qilin landed in the City Lord's Mansion, and a young man was standing on the head of Xuanhuo Qilin.

Everyone took a closer look, who else could this person be if it wasn't Jiang Li.

"Jiang Li!"

Seeing Jiang Li appear, Mu Jianning ran out quickly.Seeing that Jiang Li was safe and sound, Mu Jianning's eyes turned red all of a sudden.

"You bastard, why didn't you come here until now?"

Jiang Li said helplessly: "The battle at Yinlong Peak is tight, and your reinforcements have not arrived, so I have nothing to do."

Mu Jianning pointed at Xiao Yan, and said bluntly: "It's all to blame for this guy, he refused to send troops, and that's why he missed the opportunity of the battle."

If Xiao Yan sent troops to assist Yinlongfeng according to Jiang Li's request, then after Jiang Li had dealt with the Shu army at Yinlongfeng, he could attack back and forth with the defenders of Heishui City and wipe out all the Shu troops on Heishuicheng .

However, Xiao Yan was reluctant to send troops because of his own selfishness, which caused the current situation.

"You are Jiang Li?"

Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, sat on his seat of city lord, and looked at Jiang Li arrogantly.

Jiang Li couldn't help frowning, and scolded: "General Xiao, you are so brave, you dare to disobey this commander's military order. Come here, take Xiao Yan down and behead him for public display!"

"you dare!"

Xiao Yan was taken aback, he did not expect Jiang Li's attitude to be so tough.

You know, the military power of Heishui City is in his own hands, and even the royal family of Dayu has to give himself enough face.

But it never occurred to him that Jiang Li was going to kill him when he came up, which clearly didn't take him seriously.

"Jiang Li, no matter what, this general is also one of the top ten generals personally appointed by His Majesty. What qualifications do you have to kill this general?"

Jiang Li's voice was not angry but pretentious, "Just because you ignore my commander's orders, this commander can kill you."

"Jiang Shuai is such a powerful official,"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the fifth prince hurried out to protect Xiao Yan.

He knew very well that as long as he kept Xiao Yan, he would have a chance to deal with Jiang Li.

"General Xiao is conscientious in stationing Heishui City. Even if he has no credit, he will have to work hard. If you have a disagreement, you will kill him. Aren't you afraid that the hearts of the soldiers will be chilled?"

Jiang Li knew that the fifth prince was deliberately targeting him, and this guy wanted to avenge the three major sects.

"Speaking of it, you, Jiang Li, should be the one who dereliction of duty.

As far as this prince knows, Xishu has besieged Heishui City for a long time, but you, the marshal, have not appeared for a long time.

Could it be that they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and retreat in battle? "

Jiang Li laughed loudly and said, "Fifth Prince is really good at joking, didn't we just meet at the God's Arm Gate before? You should be the most clear about whether this commander is dereliction of duty, right?"

The fifth prince was in a bad mood at first, but now Jiang Li took the initiative to bring up the matter of the God Arm Sect, which added fuel to the fire.

"Hmph, Jiang Li, thank you for having the nerve to bring up the God Arm Sect.

If you hadn't made things difficult for the prince, the prince would have already transported the meteorite iron ore to the city! "

"boast!"

Hearing this, Mu Jianning was not polite anymore.

"If Senior Brother Gu and I hadn't tried our best to save each other, how would you have managed to enter this Black Water City? How dare you dare to say that you can bring meteorite iron ore in here? It's clearly a dream come true!"

The fifth prince's face turned red with embarrassment, and his tone was even more anxious and angry after being exposed the lie in public.

"My prince didn't transport the meteorite iron ore into the city, but Jiang Li and you didn't transport it in the same way!"
