After being reborn with Sister Zha, I was stunned!
Chapter 212: Breathing Death
Xu Chong was annoyed: "Why am I sneaking around? I just wanted to ask the military doctor about the general's injury!"
Huang Cheng immediately looked down on him even more: "You need to ask about the general's injury before you can talk to him? What's your intention?"
Being poked by Huang Cheng unintentionally, Xu Chong's face immediately turned red: "General Huang, you and I are both fourth-rank generals. I respect your age and don't argue with you about everything. Don't go too far! Don't forget that the general is only temporarily handing over the military affairs to you. Don't really think of yourself as a general and show off in front of me!"
This was originally intended to warn Huang Cheng to be aware of his identity.
My rank is not lower than his.
Unexpectedly, these words caused Huang Cheng to burst into laughter: "Haha, you are a white-faced man, and you still want to ask me for a rank? How did I get the rank of a fourth-rank general? How did you get this rank? Don't you have any idea? How much military merit did you take from others to get it? Count it yourself-"
This blatant revelation made Xu Chong so angry that he trembled all over: "You...you are slandering me!"
Seeing many soldiers gathered around to watch the fun, the military doctor hurriedly stopped the two.
"Generals, please stop arguing. The general is injured. Are you trying to piss him off to death by making such a fuss?"
This sentence was very effective. Huang Cheng looked ashamed after hearing it and stopped arguing with Xu Chong.
Xu Chong also took the opportunity to calm down and loosen his clenched fists.
He really wanted to beat up the old guy, but he knew that he was no match for him.
"General Xu, please follow me."
The military doctor took Xu Chong to a deserted place and said in a low voice:
"General Xu asks about the general's condition every day, and his concern for the general is beyond words. To be honest, the general is getting weaker and weaker, and I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for much longer..."
The military doctor was sad, but Xu Chong still had doubts: "Doctor, are you serious?"
"Naturally it is true..."
After the military doctor finished speaking, he shook his head and sighed and left. Xu Chong stayed there in silence.
He had to be cautious.
The letter he sent back to the capital said that Mu Beiyan would die within a few days. If anything went wrong, the higher-ups would not forgive him.
The military doctor returned to the tent and told Mu Beiyan and Shen Qingyin what he had just seen.
"General, I'm afraid Xu Chong is still not giving up. He might try again or even take action," the military doctor said worriedly.
"You mean, the two of them almost got into a fight?" Shen Qingyin asked.
The military doctor nodded and said, "Yes, General Huang has always disliked Xu Chong, so he was very straightforward when speaking to him, leaving no room for negotiation. Xu Chong had a hard time enduring this."
"How does General Huang's martial arts compare to Xu Chong's?" Shen Qingyin asked again.
"Xu Chong is naturally no match for General Huang. His kung fu is far inferior to General Huang's..." The military doctor said as he looked at Mu Beiyan, who nodded slightly in agreement.
Shen Qingyin chuckled: "If that's the case, then just let the two of them do it."
Mu Beiyan was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what Shen Qingyin meant.
He immediately asked the guard to call Xiaodao over and gave him some instructions.
Later in the evening, news came.
Xu Chong was scolding a guard brought by a general's wife when he was caught by General Huang. The two of them had a disagreement and started fighting. In his anger, General Huang accidentally broke Xu Chong's leg...
"Okay, now I can have a few days of peace." Shen Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Chong and Huang Cheng had been grudges against each other for a long time, so it was natural for his leg to be broken.
Xu Chong, whose leg was broken, couldn't get up for a while no matter how suspicious he was.
Mu Beiyan was worried that this would cause chaos in the army, so he called Huang Cheng over and gave him a lecture.
Huang Cheng finally calmed down after receiving twenty military sticks.
Two days later, the secret guards sent news from Xituo Kingdom, and they had already found out the current situation in Xituo Kingdom.
King Xiao Chucheng has not appeared in public for two months, saying that he is ill and needs to rest. The morning court is presided over by Crown Prince Xiao Chunran.
In two months, Xiao Chunran had eliminated most of the power of the peace faction, and many old ministers were forced to retire and return home. Even the Left Prime Minister Yuwen Jin claimed to be ill and did not attend court for many days. The court was gradually occupied by the power of the war faction.
Lu Xingfeng, the main war general who led the troops to attack the western border of the Beixin Dynasty, was the brother-in-law of Crown Prince Xiao Chunran.
According to the news from the secret guards, Mu Beiyan quickly came to the conclusion: "The 300,000 armored guards directly under the king of Xituo must have been controlled by someone, otherwise, this would not be the case."
"It's incredible. The Xituo Kingdom's Armored Guards have always obeyed the king himself, but they are actually controlled by other forces." Mu Beiyan frowned and pondered before making a decision, "It seems that if I want to understand it thoroughly, I still have to go there in person."
Shen Qingyin also agreed.
But how to get there?
As a general who was seriously injured and dying, Mu Beiyan could not come to test Xu Chong even though Xu Chong's leg was temporarily broken.
There are other eyes, other people will be watching, such as Xu Chong's confidants, such as Li Jun.
Leaving the tent was impossible.
Finding someone to impersonate someone is also very dangerous. Once it is revealed, there will inevitably be chaos.
After thinking for a long time, Mu Beiyan finally made up his mind.
"Then I might as well just die!"
Seeing Mu Xiaodao's eyes widened, Shen Qingyin was also surprised. He explained:
"First, the people behind Xu Chong and Li Jun want me dead. Why don't I just do what he wants and see what he's going to do next?"
"Secondly, if you don't die, you can't escape and go to the Westward Kingdom."
Xiaodao patted his chest lightly: "So the general was faking his death! I was so scared that I thought you were going to die for your country... Bah, bah, bah, what a crow's mouth——"
Mu Beiyan glared at him and said, "But this matter must be told to two people. One is His Majesty, and the other is General Huang."
Shen Qingyin nodded slightly, but Xiaodao didn't quite understand: "General, tell His Majesty that I know. Such a big thing should naturally be told to His Majesty, but why should we tell General Huang? He is impatient, what if he accidentally tells others?"
"It is precisely because General Huang is impatient that we need to tell him so that he can have a clear mind and not panic. As long as he can stick to defending and not going out, Western Xinjiang will not fall easily."
"As for telling others, he certainly won't. He's just impatient, not stupid. How could he tell others about such a thing?"
Shen Qingyin deeply agreed with this.
After Mu Beiyan died in the previous life, the enemy army advanced straight in. It was hard to say whether it was not because Huang Cheng was temporarily in charge of the general's seal and acted impatiently. It was indeed necessary to tell Huang Cheng the truth.
"We can let Fang Yu'an assist General Huang." Shen Qingyin added.
After Mu Beiyan's death in his previous life, Fang Yu'an was the only one who led the army to win several battles. Qin Yueze had also commended him, so he must have the ability.
But he is still young and has been in the army for too short a time, so it is difficult for him to win the support of the people.
After everything was agreed upon, Xiaodao went out to arrange all relevant matters and called Huang Cheng over.
Later, Mu Beiyan called all the generals into the tent to give his "last wishes", and even Xu Chong was carried in.
After giving his "last words", Mu Beiyan died in front of all the generals.
