Chapter 2192 The Most Precious Entrustment
Lujiabao is the closest horse farm to Shiquan City. It was originally a wilderness, but in recent years the soil and water have improved, making it a good place for horse grazing. General Hong likes good horses, so he always keeps seven or eight good horses in the back garden for easy replacement.
"No expeditionary missions in the near future?"
Zhong Shengguang shook his head.
"If I were Mitian, it would be best for me to descend in my true form and take advantage of the chaos to catch Panlong City off guard. Then, He would first need a chaos." But now Shiquan City is stable, prosperous and well-settled. What kind of chaos could happen?
"I originally thought that General Hong had led the army for many years and remained calm even when a mountain collapsed in front of her. It would take a major change for her to lose her faith." He Lingchuan clapped his hands and sighed, "But now that I think about the changes in Xiluo, this could really be the work of Mi Tian! Do you think so too?"
"Yes." Zhong Shengguang frowned with two vertical lines. "The behavior of King Xiluo's favorite concubine is abnormal, but it is not strange for a fanatic or a person who is bewitched by magic. Mitian has many followers in the human world, not only in Panlong Wasteland."
He Lingchuan nodded, thinking of the Moon God statue he had seen in the Demon Nest Swamp before. That powerful tribe also worshipped Mitian, but Mitian was revered as the "Moon God" in the local area.
"He planned to kill King Xiluo and his two sons. Xiluo will inevitably fall into internal strife and then be destroyed." Zhong Shengguang sighed, "These days, the enthusiasm of the Panlong people for Xiluo has been unprecedentedly high. Countless people are asking when they will send troops. They can't watch their homeland being occupied by others. Mitian calculated this and chose the opportunity to kill King Xiluo."
He Lingchuan continued: "The significance of the Eastern Expedition to Xiluo is extraordinary. We may face the Beijia army again, so General Hong will definitely go to battle. This is what Mitian wants, a time of 'chaos'!"
The significance of General Hong's departure is even greater than her performance on the battlefield itself.
She is a military god, and she is also the military soul.
As long as she appears on the battlefield, the morale of the Panlong Army will be boosted even without her taking any action.
Therefore, it is impossible for Zhong Shengguang to always stop her from leading troops into battle.
"By then, battles will rage one after another, and Mitian can descend to the mortal world at any time!"
War is the best cover for Mitian.
Obviously Xu Shichu was also well aware of Zhong Shengguang's difficulties, which was why he expressed his opposition in the Hall of War just now.
"The people want to conquer Xiluo, and I can't stop it for too long." Zhong Shengguang shook his head, "Mitian knows that General Hong will march east sooner or later, and all he has to do is wait!"
Wait for the best time.
Anything unexpected can happen on the battlefield.
At this moment, He Lingchuan truly understood Zhong Shengguang's difficulties.
He knew that Mi Tian was most likely preparing to show up in person when General Hong went on the Eastern Expedition, but he could not tell the truth to his subordinates in the Hall of Weapons.
What if Mitian didn’t do this? Would Panlong City have missed the great opportunity to capture Xiluo?
On one side is his beloved homeland, and on the other side is his beloved daughter whom he has felt guilty about for many years. Zhong Shengguang's heart is almost torn in two.
"I will definitely stay by General Hong's side." He Lingchuan made the most solemn promise, "Help her fight against Mitian!"
"You must make sure..." Zhong Shengguang was so strong that he choked up for a moment, "...make sure the time for the lantern to awaken the Dragon God is neither too early nor too late, but just right!"
Whether it's too early or too late, it will lead to disaster!
"Don't worry!" He Lingchuan clenched his right fist and slapped his chest heavily, "I will protect you with my life!"
"Okay, okay!" Zhong Shengguang did not hide the relief in his eyes.
This was Panlong City's most important event, and he should have done it himself. But now, he had a better candidate.
General Hu Yi has grown extremely fast over the years, far exceeding his expectations. What's more rare is that he is the best in terms of both military and civil skills, as well as his will and loyalty!
In particular, his ability to respond to situations on the spot and his grasp of timing and current situations were highly praised by even General Hong.
Zhong Shengguang investigated for such a long time before making up his mind.
He actually trusted He Lingchuan more than himself.
At this moment, he entrusted his daughter, the future of Panlong City, and the hope of this world to He Lingchuan, the man he most trusted.
He believed that the young man would not disappoint his expectations.
That's all for this.
Walking out of the government office, one will see the bustling crowds on Hongyun Street, with an air of bustling life.
No one knew that the shadow lurking secretly over Panlong’s territory was growing thicker and thicker.
Zhong Shengguang finally revealed all the secrets of Panlong City without reservation. He Lingchuan walked back home through the market, his heart also surging.
The feud between Panlong City and Mitian is one of the two most important events in Panlong's history, and he is about to witness it with his own eyes.
It was already dark when I returned home. Fluorescent spore lights were lit on the roadside, leaving only my yard in darkness.
He Lingchuan pushed the door open with a creak.
His footsteps paused for a moment, because there was a figure hidden in the corner of the yard!
His new house in Shiquan City was twice as big as Panlong City. It was not grand, but just a standard for a wealthy family. Other generals would leave guards and personal followers to guard their homes, but He Lingchuan's current residence was already too crowded. He wanted to find a secluded place to be alone in Panlong World. Because Master Sun often came over, he never kept a third person in his home.
Now, there is a new shadow under the osmanthus tree in his yard.
The strangest thing was that, with his convenient hearing and vision, he did not even notice the other party's existence outside the door.
The man turned slowly when he heard the door open.
"red……"
She was dressed in dark clothes, with only the headband on her hair being red.
Of course, He Lingchuan had seen the dragon mask she wore many times, so he recognized it at a glance.
This is General Red.
He closed the door with his backhand and put up a barrier: "Why are you here?"
"Have you had a closed-door discussion with Commander Zhong?"
As soon as General Hong opened her mouth, He Lingchuan understood that she not only knew that the military had already held a military meeting, but also guessed Zhong Shengguang's purpose in meeting He Lingchuan.
"Lord Zhong asked me to go over and explain the preparations before the Eastern Expedition, and then... he gave me a few more instructions."
They both knew that the key point of He Lingchuan's words was in the latter sentence.
Zhong Shengguang went to see He Lingchuan specifically. What did he tell him in private?
General Hong seemed to smile: "No need to tell me, I don't want to know."
"it is good."
He Lingchuan nodded very decisively. Zhong Shengguang said that for the sake of safety, he had never told his daughter about his plan with the Dragon God. But General Hong was such a person and he knew Zhong Shengguang very well. Of course, he could guess that Zhong Shengguang was plotting to deal with the arrival of Mitian's true body.
But she didn't want to know the details.
After all, when the God Mi Tian descends, he will share the same sea of consciousness with her.
Besides, she could feel Mitian’s emotions. Could it be that Mitian couldn’t detect Panlong City’s intention to resist?
Therefore, as the person involved, the less General Red knows, the better.
