Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Groups of rebels fell into the pit one after another, and then a large amount of smoke was thrown into the enemy camp by stone-throwing machines.

The smoke exuded an extremely pungent smell, and the enemy's screams immediately came from the rebel position.

These tear gas canisters specially developed by Ning Fan finally appeared directly as a secret weapon.

When he saw the smoke, Chen Yuanqing was actually dumbfounded.

Because he didn't know about these things in advance.

Chen Yuanqing was even more dumbfounded when he saw dozens of people wearing mysterious guard uniforms.

In fact, Ning Fan's purpose of creating this shadow team was to create technical barriers.

In this era, it is difficult to keep many things absolutely confidential.

But Ning Fan still didn't want to leak the tear gas formula.

After all, the effect of this thing is too great. On the battlefield, it can directly make a large number of enemies lose their combat capabilities in an instant.

The effect of this is very terrifying and will directly lead to a great rout.

A burst of smoke dissipated, and Chen Yuanqing led the cavalry to attack.

Unfortunately, the rebels affected by the smoke had no combat capabilities at all, and it was almost a one-sided massacre.

Although the rebels behind were not affected by the tear gas, it directly caused psychological panic, so these people began to flee.

Tens of thousands of people fled at the same time, and the scene was very chaotic. A large number of rebels were trampled to death, and a large number of rebels ran directly towards the camp under Huanghai City.

By the time the camp realized something was wrong, it was too late, and the 50,000-strong army was defeated in the blink of an eye.

Panic spreads, and these peasant rebels, who were originally a ragtag group, soon began to flee.

Someone found the raft by the river with the looted items.

So in the hope of survival, a large number of rebels began to compete with each other for the raft.

The clear water was soon stained red with blood.

The rebels from the three major factions in different camps soon became jealous, and the scale of their vendetta against each other became larger and larger.

Even without Ning Fan taking action, these rebels started fighting among themselves.

Everything seemed to be well-rehearsed, and everything was according to Ning Fan's script.

Chen Yuanqing was dumbfounded, and everyone on the river bank was stunned.

An army of 200,000 was defeated like this?

At this time, Ning Fan stood on the river bank and looked at the rebels expressionlessly.

Any rebels who are lucky enough to grab a raft will be shot with crossbows as soon as they enter the downstream area.

The Dragon Scale Army has been ambushing here for a long time and has become an emotionless butcher.

"Your Highness, do you really want to kill all 200,000 people? This is crazy!"

Chen Yuanqing's psychological quality is very strong, but seeing the densely packed body, his emotions are still close to collapse.

But Ning Fan looked at all of this with a blank expression, as if these were not living things, but just ants.

"Those who were massacred by them, who should go to the abyss? There may be a few innocent among these people, but most of them are no different from animals. Letting them survive will only add chaos, so please save them!"

Ning Fan looked cold.

"Transcendence?"

Chen Yuanqing was dumbfounded.

The fighting lasted for three days before gradually subsided.

It is said that there are 200,000 rebels, but the actual number is at least 120,000.

In other words, Liushakou became a meat grinder, and nearly 40,000 people died every day.

Not only Chen Yuanqing was numb, but even the defenders in Huanghai City were completely frightened.

Hundreds of thousands of rebels were all killed, and almost none escaped.

The rest of the time is spent cleaning the battlefield.

These rebels have swept through so many state capitals, each a bandit engaged in murder and plunder.

Almost everyone in the rebels had a package, and inside the package was the looted wealth, but all of this wealth now became Ning Fan's wealth.

The piles of gold and silver were still very scary, but Ning Fan looked at these things without any disturbance in his heart.

"We can't stay. We have to retreat immediately. The prince's army should be arriving soon."

Ning Fan calculated the time accurately.

"Prince? What is he doing here?"

Chen Yuanqing was confused.

"First, if we are fighting with the rebels, the prince will say that I am complicit with the rebels, and then everyone, including the Dragon Scale Army and the rebels, will be killed!"

"Second, if we have defeated the rebels, then all the credit belongs to the prince, and we people will be charged with rebellion."

Ning Fan said calmly.

"This is too dark!"

Chen Yuanqing was speechless.

"Retreat first, don't run into the prince! What we have to do now is to try our best to hide our capabilities and bide our time."

Ning Fan said.

Defeating the rebels within half a month was almost no difficulty for Ning Fan.

Because Ning Fan knew very well that the combat effectiveness of these rebels was almost non-existent. They were just a bandit gang composed of hooligans.

But the prince is different. He has hundreds of thousands of powerful troops in his hands, and his combat effectiveness is astonishing.

Even though the combat effectiveness of the Dragon Scale Army far exceeded that of the imperial army, the gap in numbers was irreparable.

So at this time, in order to avoid being misled by the prince, Ning Fan could only retreat temporarily.

Moreover, the direction of retreat cannot be Jiangzhou!

"Let's go all the way west, directly to the northwest!"

Ning Fan said.

"northwest?"

Chen Yuanqing was dumbfounded and didn't know what Ning Fan meant.

Now is the time. Instead of returning to Jiangzhou to rest, go to the northwest instead?

"It's impossible for the prince to allow me to get such a big credit. All information channels will be blocked by him!"

"The news that we wiped out the rebels will not be known at all, and the court will not recognize it!"

Ning Fan said calmly, without even an extra expression on his face.

Chen Yuanqing was dumbfounded: "Is this okay?"

"So, what are we for?"

"I said, for the sake of the prosperous people!"

Ning Fan looked into the distance.

"Your Highness, you must have a way. Tell me, what should I do?"

Chen Yuanqing was really anxious.

The annihilation of the rebels this time has made a huge contribution. If this credit is taken away by the prince, then he will go crazy.

"Delay for time. It only takes five days for my public opinion machine in Kyoto to take effect, and it will radiate to the surrounding areas with Kyoto as the core. By then, the deal will be done, and even the prince will not be able to stop the crowd."

"If you take action against the Dragon Scale Army despite the taboos of the world, you will definitely be criticized by the people of the world."

Ning Fan said calmly.

In fact, Ning Fan had already made comprehensive arrangements for this matter a few days ago.

Yue Ying and Xiao Lingxi, who were far away in Kyoto, had already received a letter from Ning Fan, asking them to print a large number of newspapers reporting the victory of the Dragon Scale Army.

In addition, the team of storytellers cultivated by Ning Fan will also play a role in this matter. A large number of storytellers occupy restaurants and tea shops. These people are Ning Fan's meat horns.

They will compile the first-hand news of Ning Fan's delivery to Kyoto into various legendary stories and spread them everywhere. By then, the story of King Qing's defeat of the rebels will spread everywhere.

It would be impossible for the prince to confuse right and wrong.
