Chapter 495: A Battle with a Disparity in Strength

Nanyan on the other side was not in a calm mood.

Although, Zhu Feng told her that she just had to rest and take care of her body, but at this time, how could she not think about anything?

Not only the coming big war, but more importantly -

What is the ultimate purpose of Arislan's arrival at Si's house?

Even Zhu Feng began to ask, he went outside the city today, did he meet someone, or something, related to Arislan?

So, is the upcoming war also related to that incident?

It was like a lump of numbness in my head, and I couldn't figure it out.

"Ah——!h

She held her head in both hands, only to feel that her head was going to explode, and fell groggily on the bed, holding the pillow, looking at the flickering candlelight on the table.

muttered, "In the end...... Our Family...... What ...... it? ”

Soon, the atmosphere in the Yanwang Mansion became tense.

Although Zhu Feng did not make an official announcement, he transferred all the troops of the Xishan battalion back to Beiping City the next day, and appointed his henchman Ye Zhen as the supervisor.

Wars in Beiping were frequent, and the common people knew a little bit about the military.

This situation is obviously a precursor to the imminent arrival of a big war and the beginning of preparations for war.

As soon as such a rumor spread, the atmosphere in the entire Beiping City became tense.

Before, Zhu Feng, as the king of Yan, commanded 120,000 soldiers and horses in Beiping, but he went south to Jingnan, seized the throne, took away most of the elite, and left only 20,000 or 30,000 people to guard Beiping.

However, there are not many.

Plus this time, the Tainingwei brought back is only more than 50,000 people.

However, the country is overwhelmed by 200,000 troops.

In the first battle of the year, he attacked the enemy lightly and almost died in the Great Wall trench.

So this time, caution must be taken.

For a whole morning, in addition to dispatching troops, he discussed with Xu Shifeng, who came back from the Xishan camp, as well as the leader of Tainingwei and Ye Zhen in the study.

Nanyan, of course, didn't dare to disturb him.

At this time, her injuries have also healed a lot, and Lang Zhong said that she can remove the gauze on her hands today.

She was walking slowly on the corridor by herself, and suddenly, she heard a sound of snatching, like chopping wood, from the courtyard in front of her, and a crying voice slowly counting: "Four hundred and eighty-five...... Four hundred and eighty-six ......"

This voice seems to be Zhu Chengxuan.

Why did he cry?

Nanyan hurriedly walked over.

At a glance, the wide courtyard was arranged as a martial arts training ground, with wooden stakes erected, and the thin Zhu Chengxuan was holding a big knife, slashing at the wooden stakes one by one.

Although it was freezing and he was wearing little clothes, he was already sweating profusely.

I'm so tired that I'm going to fall down at any moment.

Rou Dudu's face was also full of grievances, tired, and when he reached four hundred and eighty-seven knives, he couldn't help crying: "I, I can't split!" ”

At this time, the person standing on the side to supervise him turned out to be Ran Xiaoyu, and she said, "Your Highness can't stop. ”

“……”

"The emperor has ordered, His Royal Highness will split the stake five hundred times today."

“……”

"Your Highness knows the emperor's temper, if you can't do it, the emperor will punish you."

Hearing her say this, Zhu Chengxuan could only bite his lower lip aggrievedly, and his thin arm raised the big knife again, slashing at the stake one by one, and the tears on his face flowed down one by one.
