"My lord, what do you mean by this?"
Zhang Yuncheng frowned and stopped waving the meteor hammer that he had been waving on guard.
He looked at this adult with a very strange expression.
He couldn't understand why the other party would say such things.
As a former personal guard of the general, Zhang Yuncheng was very aware of the relationship between the man in front of him and his general.
They were people who had shared life and death with each other in adversity.
When the two came to this western plain alone, Liu Chengyong was in charge of the overall situation, while Chen Han was alone, with nothing but a horse and a sword.
Thirty years.
A full thirty years.
The western plains, which were originally devastated by war, developed into what they are today.
The Hansheng Pass, which was originally just an outlet to the sea, has become the Xiong Pass it is today.
Although it is a world of high martial arts, this pass has little effect on masters above the prefecture level.
But even the enemy's top masters did not dare to come alone, but had to bring at least two people with them.
On the other side, Liu Chengyong, who was in charge of the Western Plains Prefecture, worked hard to develop agriculture and commerce. It took him nearly twenty years to develop the Western Plains Prefecture, which was originally destitute due to the war, to where it is now.
Although today's Western Plains Palace is still not as good as the other three major palaces, it is still at the bottom of the Warren Empire.
But it is much better than it was thirty years ago.
If nothing else, it can be seen that Liu Chengyong and Chen Han have the titles of God of War and Qingtian among the people.
In fact, the two of them are the closest comrades-in-arms and best friends in life.
Whenever there is an emergency at Xiansheng Pass, the palace master will always send reinforcements or come in person as soon as possible.
Thirty years have passed, and in battles large and small, these two good partners, one in charge of the military and the other in charge of the economy and people's livelihood, have become brothers who talk about everything and have a tacit understanding.
It's the kind of thing that even his brothers are ashamed of.
After the Chen family and the Liu family got married a few years ago.
This relationship is even more unbreakable.
"What my father means is that General Chen is unlikely to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy now."
Just as the atmosphere gradually became subtle and awkward, a handsome young man rushed over.
Liu Ning, Liu Chengyong's youngest son, is also the one who is most loved by the palace master.
He is smart, studious and extremely talented. He has just turned 20 this year and is already an all-rounder in both civil and military fields.
"Master Liu, what do you mean?"
Zhang Yuncheng saw that the other party's family was here, so it was hard to continue the stalemate like this, but his tone was still unkind.
Even though he knew very well the relationship between Mr. Liu and his general, it was still the same.
He was loyal to the general, not to the master of the palace, and not to the court.
Liu Ning wanted to speak, but his father waved his hand to stop him.
As the head of a government, he has been in charge of a government for many years. He has never experienced anything and seen all kinds of people.
Especially Zhang Yuncheng's unkind attitude, he could understand what the other person was thinking just by looking at him.
And some things are actually not suitable to be explained on this occasion.
So Liu Chengyong just nodded.
"It's nothing. Captain Zhang misunderstood. I'm going to help."
After saying this, he turned around and left.
This move surprised Zhang Yuncheng.
But he didn't think much about it.
Now a small part of the android army has rushed in desperately and quickly dispersed. It seems that they want to copy the previous operation - massacre civilians.
Fortunately, so many years of combat experience were not in vain. When the alarm bell rang, everyone on the Xuanshengguan side started to move.
The defenders adopted the strategy of forming their own camps and not being able to escape, in order to guard against these enemy soldiers who were not very powerful, but were extremely flexible and only wanted to kill and injure civilians to the greatest extent possible.
Zhang Yuncheng's mission is actually equivalent to that of a fire-fighting team, checking and rescuing one place after another. When they see an area being besieged, they go up to clean it up, and they also get rid of any enemies they see on the way.
Therefore, it can be said that at this time when everything in the Hansheng Pass has become a battlefield, these emergency rescue teams, called fire brigade, are the busiest people in the entire battlefield.
And their risk factor is also the highest.
Although compared to ordinary human soldiers or the soldiers on the opposite side, they can be regarded as a high-end elite unit.
That's just for ordinary soldiers.
Once they encounter the enemy's general-level masters, these teams are still very dangerous.
But at this time, we can no longer take care of these many things. After all, talent is the fundamental thing. If all the border people are killed.
Then the garrison at Hansheng Pass became a truly lone army.
And being alone usually doesn't last long.
Glancing at Palace Master Liu's retreating back, Zhang Yuncheng's face darkened and he shouted.
"Everyone, please stop being distracted. We still have our own tasks to complete, do you hear me?"
"yes!"
The team members all answered loudly and were not affected by this episode.
"Father, why didn't you let me explain clearly just now? I always feel that the defenders at the border are a little too loyal to Uncle Chen."
"Shut up! Are you, a junior like you, allowed to talk about these things behind your back?"
When Liu Chengyong heard his son say these words, his expression suddenly changed and he cursed.
Then he looked around and no one noticed him, and then he calmed down.
"Don't say this kind of thing outside in the future. Do you know what it means?"
Although Liu Ning is talented and intelligent, he is still a young man after all, and he does not know much about officialdom and dealing with people in the world. Naturally, his face is full of confusion, but he is also an open-minded person.
"Please give me some advice, Father."
Seeing his youngest son's expression of humbly asking for advice, Liu Chengyong couldn't help but nodded, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes.
"It's not difficult to understand. The four plains are originally located in the land of Huawai. If the late emperor hadn't taken all the mountains and rivers under his command, the place we are standing now would still be occupied by the people of Huawai."
"This is the late Emperor Shengming's promise to treat all people equally as subjects of our empire, regardless of whether they are foreigners or civilians in the imperial capital."
After a pause, Liu Chengyong continued.
"Your father, I, and Lao Chen were already aware of the situation in the Western Plains Prefecture before we came here to take office."
"It can be said that I want nothing, I am penniless. Except for a few places where there are still living people, the huge Western Plains Mansion can be said to be a dead land. You can imagine, at that time I thought I was going to be promoted, but it turned out that You can imagine the mood in such a place.
At this point, Liu Chengyong seemed to sense something, and he glanced into the distance. After discovering that it was just a false alarm, he was relieved and continued.
"Didn't you notice? When you said that, how big was the other person's reaction? And he is not shy about this kind of loyalty at all. What does this mean?"
"It shows that they have long regarded this as a routine!"
Liu Ning was so surprised that she blurted out involuntarily.
"Father, they are going to..."
"shut up!\"
Liu Ning never dreamed that in this huge Western Plains Mansion, he would actually have to look at people's faces before speaking!
It’s a given that I feel unhappy.
But it was his father who told him to shut up. Even if his teeth were broken, he could only swallow it.
Seeing his youngest son's unhappy face, Liu Chengyong knew that he must be feeling very uncomfortable.
comforted.
"You are still young, and you will encounter many things like this in the future. Remember, read more, listen more, inquire less, and shut up. Do you understand?"
"Yeah, I remember."
Liu Ning nodded, and then asked again.
"Then Father, where are we going now?"
Liu Chengyong glanced at his son.
"Didn't I just say that? Go and help!"
"ah?"
Liu Ning was stunned.
Really go!
