Shen Leng stood on the boat and kept thinking about a problem - how should he face Zhuang Yong? Mu Xiaofeng was definitely not included in Zhuang Yong’s plans. And when Zhuang Yong asked Shen Leng yesterday, ultimately, Shen Leng did not tell him he was going to take action on him.
In Shen Leng’s eyes, if it was time to take action, one should not hesitate. If he were to let go of such a rare opportunity, he would definitely regret it in the future. When he made the decision to kill Mu Xiaofeng, he did not consider whether the imperial court was stable or not, and all the more he did not worry about what His Majesty would think.
He’s my enemy - why do I have to consider what others think about it?
That day by the river bank, Mu Xiaofeng got someone to call Shen Leng and Master Cha over. Mu Xiaofeng had an evil look in his eyes when he looked at Master Cha. Hence, from that day onwards, Shen Leng had been thinking about how he should seek reven
Mr. Shen felt that he was no longer the same as he used to be. He actually got fooled into feeling touched by that brat’s words. Could it be that the older one became, the easier it was for them to forgive the younger generation’s mistakes?When he first found Shen Leng, was he the same as he was now?He took a bite of the meat and realized that it tasted better than it did earlier on. He did not know if it was attributed to the changes in his emotions. “You can fool me, but how can you fool Zhuang Yong?” Mr. Shen asked Shen Leng earnestly, because it was a very serious question. Zhuang Yong was not Mr. Shen. Even if he was like a mother hen who treated Shen Leng like one of her chicks, after all, he was the commander of the Navy, and the person working for His Majesty. He was also Great Ning’s general. What he had to consider was entirely different from what Mr. Shen was currently thinking about.Initially, when he
The three Garrison B armies arrived at Ningwu’s official dock according to plan. The three generals who were leading those three armies had received orders from General Bai Shangnian. The Navy Weiyang General Shen Leng was the commander-in-chief of the troops. The three of them had to follow his orders.The three men were more or less unhappy with the arrangement, since after all, Shen Leng was too young and had too little experience, while on the other hand, every single one of them worked desperately hard to climb their way up to Class A Fifth pin over the course of at least ten years. It had been less than two years since Shen Leng joined the military and yet he had achieved what they did in ten years. If one were to say that they did not have any resentment towards him, even they themselves would not believe it. However, the soldiers of Great Ning were valiant and that meant that they would listen to military orders and not go against authority. Since
When Shen Leng’s fleet entered Taihu’s waters, they did not go further. Instead, they stopped by the bank to rest and reorganize. They were able to vaguely see several masts over at Yanping Island. How was he going to fight this battle? Standing on Yanping Island surveying all round, looking at the panoramic view; a sneak attack? Not possible at all. After the ships were docked, the three Garrison B generals went to look for Shen Leng to see what he had planned. In the end, they were informed that Shen Leng was not in the ship. Upon arrival, he switched over to a small boat and went to survey the topography of Yanping Island. The three of them were somewhat annoyed and vexed. The young commander-in-chief seemed to be continuing in his own way without the intention of consulting them about anything.Even though General Bai Shangnian did inform them to follow Shen Leng’s military orders, the three of them were not of a lower rank compared to Shen Leng. For S
After Zhuang Yong came back from Bai Shangnian’s, he was unable to stop worrying. That fella Shen Leng never once followed the rules when handling things. Whenever he felt that he could take action, he did. Even though the person he killed was Mu Xiaofeng, a significant person who was able to influence the entire political situation. If this piece of news were to travel to Changan city, it would wreak havoc. By then, how heartbroken would Mu Zhaotong be?What would His Majesty do in order to appease Mu Zhaotong? Even though he had already expected a problem to arise within the Navy first, just like that, everything was being disrupted by Shen Leng… Zhuang Yong could not help but feel perplexed on behalf of Bai Shangnian and those people. If Bai Shangnian knew about Mu Xiaofeng’s death at this moment, would he still try to kill him?Thereafter, he could not help but forced a laugh. What’s happening to me? How can I b
On the second day, in the morning, Zhuang Yong packed up and brought his soldiers with him to Mount Hulu, on the southwest part of Yanping Island. This was the drill tactic that he drew up, hence, naturally, it could not be changed easily. According to the plan, Bai Shangnian was in charge of overseeing the central army, commanding the combat soldiers to lay out a defense on Yanping Island.There were almost 20,000 soldiers on Yanping Island. Shen Leng wanted the probability of winning by a surprise move to be almost zero. Fortunately, both parties knew that for their impending battle, they would not be crossing swords during the drill. Only the soldiers were earnestly preparing for the war. Coming in contact with the higher-ups made them feel worried. They were simply waiting for the people who should die to die, and the people who should get promoted to promote after this battle. When Zhuang Yong was on his way there, he received the news about Bai Shang
Bai Shangnian turned around and saw a young man in white and managed to guess his identity, especially since his iron rod was a weapon that had quite a reputation in Changan city. When people in the underworld mentioned Hei Yan and Bai Ya, naturally, they would talk about their iron rod and huan shou dao. Hei Yan seemed to be a little more firm and dauntless compared to Shen Leng; all he used was a quick, fine iron rod. On the other hand, Bai Ya looked more graceful and elegant, like a scholar. Nobody would have expected that what he loved the most was his huan shou dao.“Liu Yun Sect’s outreach is truly far.”Bai Shangnian narrowed his eyes slightly, but he was not scared at all. He would never truly respect a person from the underworld. To a general like him, he regarded the killings and fights in the underworld as children playing house - immature and ridiculous.“Liu Yun Sect’s involvement in affairs is farther and deeper than
The deck of the ship was stained with blood. Shen Leng’s men separated Bai Shangnian’s men and kept them on the outside. Hence, they could not get to him in time to save him. The headless corpse swayed for a brief moment before collapsing onto the ground, next to his long lance. Shen Leng jumped into the water and saved Gu Le. Gu Le’s wound on his left shoulder was too big, and he had been submerged in the water for quite a while, making him look extremely weak. Shen Leng got some men to send him back to Yanping Island on a Wu Gong boat to look for the military physician to provide critical care for him. Thereafter, he brought the rest of the men with him and headed towards the fleet - his fleet.At this moment, the men that Shen Leng brought with him were in an extremely dangerous predicament. The combat soldiers of the three Garrison B regiments had been glaring like a tiger watching its prey. Earlier on, when Shen Leng was not around, they used boarding
Dou Huainan did not always work for Zhuang Yong from the start. In fact, that person was not even noticed by His Majesty at first. However, he was an extremely important person. If the entire setup viewed as a tactical formation, then Dou Huainan was the core. If the entire setup was viewed as a chariot, then Dou Huainan was the axle. He appeared on his own accord. At that time, after Bai Shangnian looked for him, he immediately reported it to Zhuang Yong. Thereafter, his existence started being noticed by His Majesty. His Majesty cared about him as much as he cared about the entire setup. That was because, if he was useful, he could be used for several other things in the future. Who would have expected that more often than not, the person who was capable of changing the entire setup was usually a nobody? At that time, Bai Shangnian definitely did not expect Dou Huainian to be truly untempted in the face of wealth, or that Huainian was a v
