Chapter 181: Chapter 181: the start of (Great War!

Translator: 549690339

Mulan received a letter of visit.

It was her Senior Sister Zhao Yan. She couldn’t help but recall the past.

Zhao Yan was born into a noble family and was also the daughter of a hundred-year-old noble family.

The Zhuo family of the anting count.

The Zhuo family was considered half an old noble family. They had accumulated military merits before they were conferred the title of Earl. Hence, their fief was not considered big, and they did not have many private armies.

In these two aspects, it could not be compared to the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

However, in terms of political influence, it was far greater.

The two Zhuo brothers were active in the court, and they were promoted to the great general of Pingnan, which was the current position of Zhu Lin.

That was why Zhao Yan had always felt superior in front of Mulan.

However, a few years ago, this family fell overnight.

Zhuo Guangbo, an tingbo, had committed suicide, and the Zhuo family had been stripped of all their titles and land.

Although it was not an established noble family, it had been passed down for hundreds of years. It was a true noble family, but it was suddenly destroyed.

Why so?

It was still a mystery.

Many people said that this matter did not involve the Yue country, but the Great Yan Dynasty.

The entire Yue country’s upper echelons were extremely wary of this and didn’t dare to speak a word about it.

It was also from that time that Zhao Yan fell from being a noble lady to the dust.

In fact, other than being stripped of her surname, she was not implicated and could still practice martial arts under master Zhong chuke.

However, she was a prideful woman. Not long after her family was in trouble, she left Grandmaster Zhong chuke’s sect without saying goodbye and disappeared for a few years.

The Zhuo clan had also become a taboo in the entire Yue country. Although only a few of the clan’s backbone had died, none of the clan’s descendants were able to take up an official position.

It was as if Zhuo Zhaoyan had disappeared from this world.

However, three years ago.

She had appeared again, and she had even appeared directly beside the Crown Prince, becoming his mistress.

Not only that, but the Zhuo clan’s ban seemed to have been lifted as well. Even though their titles had not been restored, two Zhuo clan disciples had already passed the Imperial examinations.

Mulan knew more than most people.

The destruction of the Zhuo clan back then had indeed involved the great Yan Empire.

However, what exactly had happened was not something that someone at the level of uncle Black Tortoise could understand.

Mulan did not like this Senior Sister.

Because she was beautiful and talented, she always had a high and mighty appearance.

As for Mulan’s aristocratic background, she was a little jealous and looked down on her.

But on the surface, she still had the appearance of a good Senior Sister.

It wasn’t strange for this Senior Sister to become the crown prince’s mistress, but what was strange was that she could represent the crown prince’s interests and make contact with the officials below.

This woman was very active, even a little too active.

This made uncle Black Tortoise a little puzzled.

Our master has invited miss Jin Mulan to Nujiang city to reminisce about the past. The eunuch shrieked.

Even though he was only a eunuch, he still felt superior in front of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

The people in the crown prince’s residence were like this. Even if a small eunuch came out, they were used to looking at people with their back.

“I’m sorry, I don’t have time.” Jin Mulan said.

The eunuch’s expression turned cold as he said,”miss Jin Mulan, do you know how precious my master’s letter of visit is?” An ordinary governor of a County would dream of getting this card, but it’s exactly what they want.”

“I’m sorry, I’m not free.” “See the guest out,” Jin Mulan said.

At this moment, many of the higher-ups in Yue country knew that Jin Mulan had become a meal on the crown prince’s plate.

Mulan hated the Crown Prince to the core, and her hatred for him was indescribable.

And as the crown prince’s mistress, Zhao Yan naturally wouldn’t give her any good looks.

The eunuch laughed in a high-pitched voice. that’s strange. That’s strange. A young lady from the palace of the Earl dares to reject my master. She even dares to expel people from the palace of the Crown Prince. Hahaha, the world is so big. There are all kinds of strange things.

Then, the eunuch laughed and left.

“The Jin clan is not far away from causing trouble.”

He was just a small eunuch in the crown prince’s residence.

......

It was the new year!

Shen lang was still on gazing Cliff Island.

At this time, the entire gazing Cliff Island was lit up with lanterns. Everyone was eating in the barracks that had just been built.

Uncle Black Tortoise wanted to be happy with the people. Therefore, he went to each of the living quarters to express his condolences to the new recruits and the commoners under the escort of Jin Shiying and the others.

Would there be enough food?

Did they have meat to eat every day? did they wear warm enough?

Whether they received their pay in time, whether they were bullied, and so on.

However, Shen lang did not like to be happy with the people. Therefore, he was alone in the best room, drinking wine and eating delicacies. He was accompanied by Shen thirteen.

I heard that your mother has introduced you to a partner? ”

“Yes,” Shen thirteen said.

“How is it?” Shen lang asked.

“She’s pretty, but I don’t like her,” Shen thirteen said.

“Why?” Shen lang asked.

“your lips are too thin,” shen thirteen said.

Shen lang was stunned. isn’t it good to have thin lips? that part is also thin. How exquisite would that be? ”

“I’ve asked the old master to read her face and he said that this woman is mean,” Shen Shisan’s eyebrows jumped.

Shen lang said, ” there’s nothing wrong with a woman being mean. She’s good to the outside world. It’s good for the family.

“I’m already a mean person. If another one comes, I won’t be able to live,” Shen thirteen said.

you’re right, ” Shen lang said. next time, I’ll ask my mother to introduce you to someone with thick lips.

Shen thirteen didn’t know what to say.

This was because this master would go down the three paths in less than three sentences.

“Yes.” Shen thirteen didn’t dare to refuse.

Shen lang said, ” but you have to remember. No matter how beautiful the woman you find is, you must not suck up to her. There is no future for you if you suck up to her. Look at Jin Hui, I really can’t stand it anymore. He doesn’t look like a man at all. His waist is so soft in front of his wife.”

At that moment, Jin Hui was outside and was about to come over to give Shen lang a toast.

After all, it was the new year. He could forget to toast to the Earl, but he could not forget to toast to his son-in-law.

But when he heard this, he quickly and quietly retreated.

It was not because he was angry with Shen lang.

She was afraid that Shen lang would know that she had heard him talking bad about her.

These words were a little roundabout.

But in short, even if he heard Guye talking about him behind his back, not only did he have to pretend that he didn’t hear it, but he also had to make Guye think that he didn’t hear it.

Otherwise ...

Jin Hui, if you hear me bad-mouthing you, you’ll definitely hate me.

Then wouldn’t I, Jin Hui, be finished?

Shen lang continued,”however, if you can find a woman like my wife, it’s okay to suck up to her.” Of course, you’ll never have a chance with a woman like her. ”

“Yes,” Shen thirteen said.

He really did not know that there were such complicated people in the world.

On one hand, she was as smart as a deity, on the other hand, she was as vulgar as a gossiper.

Something about not speaking ill of others behind their backs, or else it would go against the demeanor of a gentleman.

As his master, he loved to speak ill of others behind their backs.

After a long while, Jin Hui pretended to be in a hurry and said, ” “Son-in-law, let me offer you a cup of wine.”

Jin Hui, ” Shen lang said, ” I said bad things about you just now. You didn’t hear me, did you? ”

why would you say anything bad about me? ” Jin Hui said. every word you say to me is a whip of life. You’re able to criticize me because you care about me and love me. ”

“He heard what I said just now. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have flattered me,” Shen lang said to Shen thirteen.

Jin Hui was about to cry.

Master, you’re too hard to serve, you know.

Please give us servants a way out.

Shen lang took out a bottle of perfume, a bar of soap, and a bottle of shampoo with rose essential oil.

“Here, take it to please your wife.”

Jin Hui was stunned. Then, he felt a warmth in his heart and received it happily.

This was all good stuff.

In the fu, only young miss and Madam could use it. No amount of money could buy it.

She would definitely be happy to give it to Hong Xian.

Shen lang said, ” look at how useless you are. Do you know that men who are afraid of their wives are useless? ” In front of my wife, if I tell her to go east, she won’t dare to go west. Don’t think that she’s good at martial arts. When I beat her up, she doesn’t dare to fight back at all. Women, if you don’t get a beating, you’ll tear the roof tiles apart.”

Shen lang suddenly stopped.

That was because Shen thirteen and Jin Hui’s expressions were strange.

Shen lang said, ” don’t do that. Don’t think that you can scare me. Don’t pretend that my wife is right behind me.

“Goodbye,” Jin Hui and Shen thirteen stood up.

Shen lang turned around and saw Mulan.

He was shocked and stunned.

“Wifey, I miss you so much. We’ve been separated for a full 74 hours.”

men, if you don’t get a beating, you’ll tear down the roof. Now you finally understand.

“Wife, hit me.”

Mulan rolled her eyes at him.

Then, she put her arms around his neck and stared at his face for a long time.

“Husband, I missed you so much.”

Shen lang hugged Mulan’s waist and said with a trembling voice, ” “Wife, I also miss you.”

Mulan held Shen Lang’s face and kissed him.

“Are your injuries better?” Mulan asked.

“Scabs have formed,” Shen lang said.

that’s not enough, ” Mulan said. we have to wait until the scabs completely fall off.

“Recently, the fief hasn’t been very peaceful. There are always some unknown bandits sneaking in, and my task is very urgent. But I missed you too much, and it’s the new year tonight, so I couldn’t help but come. I’ll be here for an hour at most.” Mulan said.

After that, the two of them didn’t speak and quietly enjoyed the sweet warmth.

An hour later, Mulan left and returned home.

This New Year’s Eve was over.

They had traveled back and forth for hundreds of miles, spending an entire night, just to stick together for an hour.

..................

The war was about to start!

Instead, the entire raging tide city became busy.

After the spring Festival, several sea routes suddenly became extremely busy.

Countless iron weapons, food, and clothes were transported to raging tide city.

The Pirate King Qiu Tianwei continued to give out orders to gather.

There were dozens of groups of Pirates in Leizhou archipelago. After hearing the Pirate King’s orders, they all led their ships to gather.

Before the Army moved, the rations had to go first.

More and more Pirates were gathering in raging tide city.

Ten thousand, twenty thousand, twenty-five thousand.

And it was still increasing.

The amount of resources consumed every day was astronomical.

Qiu Tianwei issued an order to exterminate the Qiu family to all Pirates.

From today on, from now on, kill every single person, every blade of grass, and every tree in the Jin family.

After the spring Festival.

The battle intent grew stronger and stronger.

With the gathering of the pirate Army, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be piling up.

It was getting lower and lower, as if it would collapse at any moment, completely crushing the world below.

............

Raging tide city’s city Lord’s mansion.

“Father, I’m willing to be the vanguard and fight for you.” “i will definitely hack shen lang into a thousand pieces to avenge the young master,” his foster son howled.

“What are you doing here?” Chou Tianwei asked coldly. Let’s go back.”

Qiu Wu said, ” foster father, I was so anxious when I heard that something had happened to the young master. I can’t care so much anymore. I must fight this battle.

Chou Tianwei said, ” it’s not your turn to attack gaze Cliff Island. Gold Mountain island’s iron production is our top priority. We can’t lose it. As the commander, how can you leave without permission? ”

“But if I can’t take part in this war of revenge, I’ll hate you for life,” Qiu Wu said.

“I’ll say it one last time, go back!” Qiu Tianwei said. Guard your Gold Mountain Island well and go back now.”

“Foster father.”

Chou Tianwei turned around.

His adopted son, Chou, cried and kowtowed. His head bled from the kowtow. Then, he left unwillingly and returned to the Golden Mountain Island.

............

After returning to Jinshan Island, Chou Hao met with Zhang Chunhua, who he had not seen for a long time, in a secret room in the military camp.

“General, there’s no need to hesitate.” Zhang Chunhua said.

Qiu Wu said,”at this moment, if I take a wrong step, I will be smashed to pieces, understand?” My foster father’s orders were very clear. He wanted me to guard the gold Mountain Island. Everyone knew that the main force of the Jin family was on gazing Cliff Island. You actually said that Shen Lang’s target is raging tide city. How can I believe that?”

“It doesn’t matter if you believe me or not. I’m giving you a chance.” If this is successful, you will be the future Duke of furious tide. This is not only my father’s promise, but also Governor Zhu Rong’s promise. If you don’t believe it now, it won’t be too late to believe it when the situation is clear. But I’d like to advise you, general, that it’s never wrong to make early preparations.”

............

13th day of the first month, late at night.

In a house by the sea, 200 miles North of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.

Governor Zhang Ji was dressed in military attire.

There was a huge map hanging behind him, on which there was hope of Cliff Island and raging tide city.

Five generals stood in front of him.

the battlefield this time is divided into two places. One is at gazing Cliff Island, and the other is in raging tide city.

the gazing Cliff Island is Shen Lang’s scam. It is a trap he set up to deceive everyone and create a diversion. His real target is in raging tide city.

I’m sure that the Jin family will send all their elite warriors into raging tide city.

Qiu Tianwei’s pirate Army will come out in full force. At that time, there won’t be more than 3000 guards in the entire raging tide city. The general will be the invincible general, Qiu Yao ‘er.

at that time, Shen lang and Chou Yao ‘er will have an intense battle.

“On the surface, Shen lang will definitely lose. Because the main castle of raging tide city was impregnable, even 10000 people wouldn’t be able to break through. Furthermore, Chou Yao ‘er is invincible, and no one can match her. ”

however, I believe that Shen lang has already found her weakness and prepared everything to give her a fatal blow.

Xu Qianqian’s presence beside Chou Yao ‘er is enough to prove everything.

“That’s why I firmly believe that Chou Yao ‘er will lose this battle in raging tide city. She might even die. If we just sit back and watch, Shen lang might really be able to take down raging tide city.”

“Once the Jin family takes over the raging tide city, the new governance in the Nu River will be a complete failure. From now on, the Jin family will be safe and sound. Not only will we be able to survive this crisis, but we will also rise again.”

when that time comes, I, Zhang Ji, will be in deep trouble. As my generals, no eggs can remain intact when the nest is overturned!

“But at the same time, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us.”

“The Mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the Oriole behind!”

your thousands of elites will split up and head to Gold Mountain Island first. From there, you will head to raging tide city in the name of the pirate Army’s reinforcement and win the battle!

we need to use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to destroy the Jin clan and the Qiu clan in one fell swoop. We need to return peace to the entire Eastern Sea region and help the king take over the Leizhou islands, establishing a long-term achievement.

when that time comes, all of you will ascend the stage to pay respects to your generals. You can wait for the day!

“It’s time to make a name for myself!”

“We shall make a name for ourselves today!” The generals below shouted.

Zhang Ji drank this bowl of zhuangxing wine and then smashed the wine bowl.

All the generals drank the zhuangxing wine and smashed the wine bowls.

“Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!”

“This general will take his leave. The governor is waiting for our triumphant return.”

Zhang Pu and a few other generals walked out of the house.

All the elites of Nujiang County, a full 6000 troops, were lined up.

It was freezing cold, but they were fully armored and didn’t make a sound.

“Board the ship and set off.”

An order was given.

The six thousand elite soldiers walked towards the dock in an orderly manner and boarded the warships.

Four hours later, they were all on board.

The twenty ships headed toward the gold Mountain Island.

They had to change their clothes On Gold Mountain Island, and then head to raging tide city in the name of Qiu Wu’s Army.

At this moment, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Governor Zhang Ji stood by the window and reached out his hand to catch a snowflake.

Then, she quietly watched him melt.

............

It was an ordinary cargo ship on the sea.

This ship was meant to deliver food to raging tide city, so it was unremarkable.

Shen lang stood on the deck and looked at the sky.

It was snowing.

He reached out and caught a snowflake.

All the experts from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu were beside him.

There was only one person left on the entire gazing Cliff Island.

That was count Jin Zhuo himself.

The rest of the Jin clan’s elites were all headed to raging tide city.

Two thousand of them were elites. In the past half a month, they had been transported to raging tide city by cargo ships and were hiding in various gathering points.

young master, ” Jin Hui said. the Earl brought 2000 new soldiers to gazing Cliff Island alone. Will he really be fine facing Qiu Tianwei’s 30000-strong Allied army? ”

“It’s not like we’re going to fight face to face, it’s fine,” Shen lang said.

Jin Shiying said, ” young master, it’s not that I’m doubting you, but the castle in the Furious tide city is impregnable. Chou Yao ‘er is brave and invincible. Even if we have 10000 or 20000 people, we still won’t be able to take down the Pirate king’s castle. We only have 2000 people. If we fail, the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu will be destroyed.

At this moment, a person walked over and said in a low voice, ” “Son-in-law, you’re here!”

This man was the famous doctor of the palace of the Earl, an Zaishi.

“All of you can leave,” Shen lang said.

Jin Hui, Jin Shiying, and all the elites of the palace of the Earl retreated.

Shen lang and an Zaishi were the only two people on the deck.

A small boat approached, and a man wearing a black cloak climbed onto the big boat and came to Shen lang.

“Greetings, son-in-law.”

This man was The Alchemist Taoist who was working for Qiu Tianwei.

His real identity was physician an Zaishi’s elder brother, an Zaitian.

They had been the henchmen of the Jin family for generations, and their father had died in the battle twenty years ago.

The battle where the entire Army of the Earl of golden universe was annihilated.

Shen lang said,”have you investigated clearly?” Is he the one who used the sea salt poison to kill Chou Yao ‘er?”

“He’s the smartest man in the world,” an Zaitian said.

“Have you prepared the things I asked you to?” Shen lang asked.

An Zaitian replied, ” I’m ready. Although I’ve been lurking around Qiu Tianwei for more than ten years, I’m not his confidant. I’m not very important in the city Lord’s mansion. I’m afraid I won’t be of much use in this war.

“If you can complete the mission, you will be the greatest contributor,” Shen lang said.

“Yes!” “I’ll take my leave now. Take care, Guye,” an Zaitian said.

Then, he left the big ship and took a small boat to leave.

............

Inside the raging tide city’s castle.

Chou Yao ‘er looked out the window.

It was snowing!

she couldn’t help but reach out her hand and catch a snowflake, then let it melt in her palm.

The Pirate King, Chou Tianwei, looked at his adopted daughter’s back with a complicated expression.

Yao ‘er, your father will lead the Army out tomorrow. The safety of raging tide city will be officially in your hands.

“Alright,” Chou Yao ‘er nodded.

you only have 3000 soldiers, ” Qiu Tianwei said. is there a problem? ”

“No, I didn’t,” it doesn’t matter if there are enemies or not, ” Chou Yao ‘er said. even if there are 10000 or 20000, it won’t be a problem.

be careful of Xu Qianqian, ” Qiu Tianwei said. she’s not necessarily reliable.

“Yes.” Chou Yao ‘er.

Chou Yao ‘er frowned and reached out to cover her stomach.

He felt a little uneasy.

That was because her period did not come this month.
