Chapter 190 Taking Over the Army
There was some panic in the Prince of Nan'an's Mansion at this time. After all, their backbone had been captured, it would be strange if they were not panicked.
The guards at the door were shocked to see so many Jinyiwei. One of them turned around and ran inside.
The remaining guards mustered up their courage and stepped forward and asked cautiously, "This is the Prince's Mansion. Who are you looking for, sir?"
Wu Neng got off his horse, glanced at the guards, and said calmly, "I'm here to arrest people and confiscate their property."
"Ah," the guard turned pale with fear, "Is there some misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding?" Wu Nengneng laughed sarcastically, "Didn't the Prince of Nan'an form an alliance with the other two princes and plan to send troops to the capital?
For such a serious crime of treason, isn't it normal to confiscate the property and exterminate the clan?"
"What do you want to do?" Suddenly a young voice sounded, a young man in armor,
He held a spear in his hand, looked heroic, and had an angry look on his face.
"Prince, you are here. These Jinyiwei are not here with good intentions." The guard breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the young man, and hurriedly ran to the young man and said worriedly.
Wu could see the young man and smiled slightly, "Are you the prince of Nan'an County?"
The young man glanced at the densely packed Jinyiwei, and his heart sank.
He was about to go to the military camp to take over the army, but unexpectedly he was stopped by the Jinyiwei.
"Jinyiwei, you came so quickly." The young man said coldly. "What do you want?"
Wu Neng smiled and said, "Didn't I just say that? Confiscate the property and exterminate the clan."
The young man's eyes turned cold. "Do you know what you are talking about? Something has happened to my father. If I don't go to stabilize the morale of the army, will you be responsible if something goes wrong?"
Wu Neng frowned and smiled, "Haha, Prince, there is something wrong with what you said.
Could it be your private army? Why are you the one who is going to stabilize the army's morale? Isn't there a deputy general?"
The prince's expression changed. "Humph, if you are not afraid of the soldiers mutiny, then try to attack my family."
Wu Neng's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly reached out and touched the black belt around his waist. "Swoosh" the belt moved instantly, bounced out, and flew towards the prince.
"What is that?" The prince's face changed drastically. He didn't expect Wu Neng to take direct action. When he saw the centipede flying towards him, he hurriedly stabbed it out with a gun.
"Dang" sparks flew, he only felt a recoil force coming, and his body involuntarily took several steps back.
The centipede fell to the ground, and then it rushed to the prince like lightning, wrapping itself around his body.
"Crack." The centipede exerted force hard.
"Ah" the prince screamed miserably, his body was cut into several pieces, and blood spurted out.
Everyone in the Prince's Mansion was stunned. That was the Crown Prince, and he died like that.
Wu Neng's expression remained unchanged. He waved his hand and said, "Go, kill them all."
"Kill!" The Jinyiwei's eyes lit up, and they rushed in with a loud roar.
Before the guard at the door could react, a passing Jinyiwei chopped off his head with a knife.
His eyes were wide open, and he never understood until his death why someone dared to kill the prince.
Wu Neng did not go in, but coiled the centipede around his waist again. There were screams of panic in the Prince's Mansion.
For the current Jinyiwei, it is not too easy.
The people far away were almost frightened to death when they saw this scene.
"I am not dreaming, right? That is the Prince's Mansion, and the Royal Guards actually dared to kill people."
"Hey, they are going to confiscate our property and exterminate our clan. Didn't the prince just lose the battle? It's not that serious, right?"
"Haha, what do you know? The Prince of Nan'an is preparing to send troops to the capital.
If it weren't for the sudden invasion of Qianxiang Country, they might have all been in the capital."
"What? Isn't this a rebellion? No wonder so many Jinyiwei came."
"Tsk tsk, the Prince of Nan'an is so miserable. Not only was he captured, but his house was also ransacked."
Suddenly everyone fell silent, looking at the Prince's Mansion in fear, only to see the Royal Guards coming out one after another, many of them with blood on their bodies.
"My lord, kill them all."
Wu Neng nodded, jumped on his horse and said, "Let's go to the military camp."
Wu Neng then led the Jinyiwei out of the city. The gate of the Prince's Mansion was wide open.
But no one dared to approach, as they were completely shocked by the brutality of the Jinyiwei.
It was not until they saw the Jinyiwei leave the city that they breathed a sigh of relief and started discussing again.
"This is really terrifying. Is this the Jinyiwei?"
"The Jinyiwei are so powerful, we can't afford to offend them."
In the military camp, several generals in armor were discussing something, and the commander's seat was empty.
"Well, what do you think we should do now?"
"What else can we do? Of course we have to rescue the prince."
"It's easy to say, but how can we save him?"
"You tell me, should we report this to the court?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent, and looked at each other.
Of course they knew what the Prince of Nan'an had done. Invading the capital and clearing out the imperial court was no different from temporarily releasing him.
"Do you think the court will still trust us?" a general asked quietly.
"Alas, the chess game was just one step behind. Your Majesty was a little impulsive and was not prepared at all."
At this moment, the big tent was opened, and a soldier rushed in in panic, "General, it's bad, there are a lot of Jinyiwei outside."
"Jinyiwei?" Everyone was stunned. Some were confused. "What are Jinyiwei doing here?"
The soldier shook his head quickly. How would he know?
"What do you think?"
"How many Jinyiwei are there?" The soldier asked hurriedly, "General, there are at least a thousand."
"So much hissing?" Several generals gasped in surprise.
"I'm afraid he has bad intentions."
"Humph, they came not earlier nor later, but now that the prince has been captured, they are here."
"They wouldn't have come a long time ago."
"Let's go out and take a look. Are we afraid of them?" A general stood up and said in a cold voice.
Wu Neng and his men were outside the military camp, facing the huge military camp.
They did not show any fear at all, but a few soldiers guarding the gate were a little frightened.
Of course they had heard of the name of the Jinyiwei.
Wu Neng was not in a hurry. He suddenly looked up and saw several generals and a lot of soldiers walking towards here.
When several generals saw the Jinyiwei, their pupils shrank. Hearing and seeing with one's own eyes are still different.
"Jinyiwei pacification envoy Wu Neng meets several generals." Wu Neng said with a smile, clasping his fists.
Several generals looked at each other with serious expressions, "I wonder why Lord Wu brought so many Jinyiwei to the military camp?"
Wu Neng saw the alert looks on their faces and his smile faded a bit. "I'll take over you."
"What?" Several generals exclaimed, "Impossible, why would you Jinyiwei take over us?"
"That's right. We have no connection with your Jinyiwei. How can we hand over the army to you?"
"Master Wu is really good at joking."
Several generals reacted strongly and began to make sarcastic remarks.
Wu Neng glanced at them, then suddenly reached into his arms, took out a gold medal, and said calmly, "Now, can I take over you?"
This was given to him by Jia Hu before he left, with the purpose of letting him take over the army.
He felt a little strange, as if the Duke knew that something would happen to Prince Nan'an. He could only admire him in his heart.
When several generals saw the gold medal, their faces changed and they knelt on one knee in panic, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The soldiers behind him immediately knelt down as well.
Wu Neng put away the gold medal and said with a smile, "Generals, please stand up."
Several people stood up slowly, their faces extremely solemn.
Finally, they all turned their eyes to one of them, as if waiting for him to make a decision.
The man had an old face and a white beard. He was the deputy of the Prince of Nan'an, Huang Nian, also known as General Huang.
Huang Nian's eyes flickered as he looked at Wu Neng, "Lord Wu, we may not be able to make the decision. How about letting the prince decide?"
Wu Neng's face turned cold, and he said calmly, "Oh, do you really want to rebel?"
Huang Nian said quickly, "Your Excellency has misunderstood. Because the prince had given an order before, if he is not here, then we will listen to the prince, so."
Wu Neng sneered, "Haha, your prince probably won't be able to come."
"Huh?" Several people were stunned and looked at Wu Neng in confusion.
"Because he has been killed by me, and the entire Nan'an County Prince's Mansion is wiped out. How can he come again?" Wu Liang said lightly.
"What?" Several people were completely shocked, and Huang Nian's face turned pale. It was over, the Prince's Mansion was completely finished.
The surroundings became quiet and the atmosphere became even more depressing. Wu Neng became more alert and a war seemed to be about to break out.
"General Huang, what should we do now?" someone asked in a panic.
A fierce light flashed in Huang Nian's eyes. He glanced at Wu Neng and suddenly smiled.
"Master Wu, you should have said it earlier. Since the prince is no longer here, there is no need to ask for his opinion. I will listen to you, Master."
The others were stunned and looked at Huang Nian in surprise. This man was the prince's confidant, and he surrendered so quickly.
Without having time to think about it, they all smiled and said, "Yes, Master Wu, we will all listen to you. Please come in."
Wu Neng was startled, then looked at Huang Nian deeply and nodded slightly.
"Okay." Then he rode his horse and led the Jinyiwei into the camp.
In the big tent, Wu Neng sat on the commander's seat, with several Jinyiwei standing beside him, and Huang Nian and others sat below.
Wu Neng looked at them and said calmly, "Tell me, how did the Prince of Nan'an get captured? Are all your tens of thousands of soldiers useless?"
Huang Nian smiled bitterly and said, "Master Wu, to be honest, we still don't understand how that princess appeared.
Especially since she can fly."
Wu Neng was stunned and asked in surprise, "Is the rumor true?"
"Yes, Lord Wu, not only did we see it, but so many soldiers saw it too, so it was inevitable that it would spread."
"Lord Wu, do you want to rescue the prince?" another general asked.
Huang Nian's eyes flashed and he stared at Wu Neng closely.
Wu Neng smiled coldly, "Why should we save him? The Prince of Nan'an is a traitor. Even if Qianxiang Kingdom doesn't kill him, I will kill him. Don't worry about him."
Everyone showed complicated expressions. Huang Nian lowered his head slightly, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
Wu Neng glanced at Huang Nian and asked calmly, "How many soldiers do we have left?"
"fifty thousand."
"It seems that there is not much loss." Wu Neng touched his chin.
"What is the reaction of Qianxiang Country now? They should make demands after capturing the Prince of Nan'an, right?"
"That's right, Lord Wu. Qianxiang Country sent people here and asked us to withdraw our troops and give up a city."
