Chapter 84: Rumors are rampant, and the people in red official robes are stained with blood! (Subscribe)

Shang Chuqing withdrew his troops very decisively.

The entire 20,000-strong army retreated directly into the heart of Yuzhou the next day without any lingering feelings.

And this news immediately reached Handan City.

"Mr. Lin, Shang Chuqing has withdrawn his troops."

In Handan City, when Lin Zhongyun heard the news brought back by the spy, a smile appeared on his face.

But then it turned solemn.

"You are truly worthy of being called the God of War."

Lin Zhongyun sighed secretly in his heart. After finalizing the corresponding plan, Lin Zhongyun kept an eye on Shang Chuqing's arrangements.

In fact, for Lin Zhongyun.

From the moment the plan succeeded, all he thought about was that Shang Chuqing would not withdraw his troops.

If there is no trouble in the entire Cangzhou, as long as Shang Chuqing insists on attacking Cangzhou, Lin Zhongyun will be confident that he can defeat Shang Chuqing directly.

After all, no matter how strong he is, he only has 20,000 troops.

But now, Shang Chuqing has withdrawn his troops!

From this point, Lin Zhongyun can see that the title of God of War is well-deserved!

Although this is just a small detail, it also represents so much!

Lin Zhongyun uploaded the matter to Douyin without any hesitation, and sure enough, the entire comment section was quite surprised by this.

Because the opponents that Lin Zhongyun had faced before were almost all stronger than Lin Zhongyun.

But deep down they really looked down on the rebel army led by Lin Zhongyun!

But this time it’s different!

But no matter how unexpected it is, this kind of opponent has also aroused the interest of netizens in the entire comment area!

If you crush everyone all the way, can it still be called a game?

How can a game not have a boss? If the boss is too weak, it will be really unattractive!

"(Funny.jdg) Activate the Military God template. Military God from another world, huh? Let's test the strength of my Chinese Military God!"

"Let go of this boss and let me take over! I have studied Napoleon for a long time. I will crush this god of war directly. You lead your troops to chase him immediately. Kill him first while he is retreating and dampen his spirit!"

"Wow, this God of War actually seems to have some brains. I knew it, as long as the bosses in this kind of text game are set up to be awesome, they are not simple. By the way, where is the recharge channel? I want to give the protagonist a cheat!"

"."

As soon as Lin Zhongyun uploaded the video, several comments immediately appeared in the comment section.

But it’s mainly for fun.

But the familiar Crouching Dragon and Phoenix still did not disappoint Lin Zhongyun, except that this time Crouching Dragon did not take direct action.

The one who took action was Fengchu.

"This is interesting. I feel relieved! Fighting a war without an opponent is very lonely! I suggest that you don't mobilize your troops now."

"Continue as planned. Spread rumors about Shang Chuqing and destroy his reputation. You can also use this withdrawal to spread the word that Shang Chuqing is afraid of you."

"Through my observations over the past few days, I know that Shang Chuqing has a very high reputation in Daqian. This is our chance!"

"Fuck! Is this company even viable? They can upload such bloody pictures, but you don't even do any sex scenes?"

"That's right, hurry up and get married and take in concubines! I've been commenting on this for months!"

Looking at the comments in the comment section, Lin Zhongyun couldn't help but nodded.

The next moment, the familiar task template flashed before his eyes.

[Received a suggestion: Subdue Shang Chuqing (How can we not subdue such a military god-level figure in the wild?.)]

[Mission Difficulty: SSS]

[Quest reward: Legendary treasure chest. ]

Looking at the task in front of him, Lin Zhongyun couldn't help but feel a little agitated.

"A legendary treasure chest!!"

"If I can make the court give up Shang Chuqing and destroy his reputation, can I seize this opportunity to subdue him?"

Lin Zhongyun couldn't help but mutter to himself.

In fact, according to his experience during this period, SSS-level tasks are almost impossible to complete.

But compared to other SSS-level tasks that require you to die and start over again, this task is the most likely to be accomplished.

This is a legendary treasure chest!
How could he not think about it?

Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, how can we not try?
And this task does not conflict with my plan!

While thinking, Lin Zhongyun immediately walked to the desk and took out the letter he had prepared long ago.

This was a plan he had prepared long ago based on the "Pickle Egg Solo Porridge" strategy.

There was also a line of words written by Emperor Xiaowen on it saying "My butt is the reddest among all the monkeys on the mountain". The specific content was that the late emperor had already dismissed Shang Chuqing and decided not to employ him again.

And if His Majesty today employs him, it would be considered unfilial.

Many famous Chinese sayings about filial piety are used above, taking the opportunity to ridicule the current emperor for being unfilial.

As a modern person, although Lin Zhongyun did not understand history, it was impossible for him to be completely unaware of this method of confusing right and wrong and alienating people in the dark.

Although Lin Zhongyun doesn't chase stars, what can he do about the rapid spread of information in the information age? He can learn some tricks by watching videos!
Then Lin Zhongyun opened the letter directly, wrote a few more sentences on it, and immediately walked out of the government office. He found a beggar on the street and asked him to deliver it to Yuan Jingxin immediately.

This is his special way of communicating with Yuan Jingxin.

Lin Zhongyun did not tell anyone about Yuan Jingxin's intelligence department, which was similar to the Jinyiwei.

Not even Li Zhongwu.

This department is of great importance, and Lin Zhongyun does not want to take any risks.
Time keeps passing.

As the news of Shang Chuqing taking charge of the army spread, Lin Zhongyun's influence in other states and counties gradually weakened.

However, in the whole Cangzhou, it is still at its peak.

Under Lin Zhongyun's series of policies, the cheers of the people in various cities were heard all the time.

Moreover, the people in Handan and Shuntian have already started farming one after another.

It is almost the end of summer now. If we farm now, we can still have some harvest this year. The people don't need Lin Zhongyun to remind them of this, as they know it themselves.

As for the people in the other three counties, they were also waiting for Lin Zhongyun's grain seeds.

The entire Cangzhou area became increasingly prosperous under Lin Zhongyun's policies.

Lin Zhongyun also sent people to deliver the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn seeds given by the system to Lian'an City and handed them over to Master Yu.

The previous batch of sweet potato seeds are now growing very well.

They already have experience.

The planting methods of potato seeds and sweet potato seeds are similar, so Lin Zhongyun feels at ease leaving it to them to plant.

Of course, it was impossible for Lin Zhongyun to give them such an important crop for free.

This is what they planted for Lin Zhongyun.

Only after this year's harvest is fully harvested will Lin Zhongyun consider distributing these crops to the people of Cangzhou and using them as his own military ration reserves.

Time flies.

In a flash, more than ten days had passed. When the whole Cangzhou was thriving, rumors suddenly spread from Yuzhou and Yangzhou to all directions.

"The military god Shang Chuqing was afraid of Lin Zhongyun, so after stationing his troops in front of Cangzhou for several days, he did not dare to attack and retreated directly."

"Shang Chuqing attempted to rebel and stationed his troops in front of Cangzhou without advancing. He was discussing with Lin Zhongyun about attacking the imperial court."

"Shang Chuqing is a sign of the late emperor's past. He is arrogant because of his talent and does not respect the late emperor. He should never be appointed as an official again in this life. Your Majesty is re-employing Shang Chuqing today. This is a sign of the late emperor's past and is even more against filial piety!"

"Shang Chuqing stationed his troops in Cangzhou and refused to advance in order to nurture the enemy. He has been in the wild for many years and has lived in extreme poverty. This time, he wants to use these rebels to threaten the court!"

"."

Rumors came from the two states and quickly spread in all directions.

The news spread very quickly.

Even before a month had passed, the news had already spread to every state in the world.
Yuzhou, Linjiang County.

"Report!!"

"Sir, the governor is here!"

Inside the military tent, Shang Chuqing put down his pen immediately after hearing the words of the soldier, and said, "Bring the governor in immediately."

"Yes!" The soldier bowed to Shang Chuqing and immediately walked out.

It was not until the soldiers walked out of the tent that the crown prince beside him said solemnly, "Sir, the rumors are spreading more and more. I'm afraid the governor is here to test you."

"Of course I know." Shang Chuqing said calmly without changing his expression.

Hearing this, Chu Yun's expression became more solemn, and he quickly said, "Sir, the officials in the court are afraid of you. Now that the rumors are getting worse, will they take this opportunity to target you again?"

"them."

Before he could finish, Shang Chuqing interrupted him. His deep eyes were calm as he looked at Chu Yun and said directly, "Yun'er, do you know who spread this rumor?"

Hearing this, Chu Yun's expression slightly changed. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head slightly and said, "Disciple, I don't know."

He is now extremely confused and can't figure out who would spread such a rumor.

Shang Chuqing didn't say much, he just pointed at the map in front of him and pointed directly to the location of Handan City.

Seeing this, Chu Yun's eyes were immediately shocked, and he said with some disbelief: "Did that Lin Zhongyun spread it?"

Shang Chuqing nodded directly: "After we withdrew our troops, the rumors have already spread."

"This guy is just trying to take advantage of the court's prejudice against me and wants the court to dismiss me again."

"It just so happens that the rebels in various places are all afraid of me. After they realize Lin Zhongyun's plan, they will naturally add fuel to the flames."

When he finished speaking, a smile suddenly flashed across Shang Chuqing's face.

Seeing this, Chu Yun's face became more and more suspicious.

He really couldn't understand.

Why is it that at this point, sir, you are still so calm?

But before he could ask.

The next moment, Ni Tiangui, dressed in a red official robe, walked in slowly from outside with a faint smile on his face.

"Mr. Shang is so grand and ostentatious. I even need to notify you if I want to see you."

Ni Tiangui looked at Shang Chuqing with cold eyes and said coldly with a forced smile.

As a second-rank official in the imperial court, how could Ni Tiangui not have his own pride?
Although Shang Chuqing's status was once far higher than his.

But now, Shang Chuqing was nominally just a general under him. How could he not feel resentful at such a ceremony?

But Shang Chuqing's expression was still so calm, and he didn't even perform a greeting. He just looked at Ni Tiangui and asked calmly, "My Lord, are you here to find out if I have any intention of rebellion?"

Upon hearing this, Ni Tiangui's eyes suddenly shocked.

But the next moment, he smiled again, and then sat casually on a chair beside him, looking at Shang Chuqing and said calmly: "Of course I believe in Shang Gong."

"But the people and officials of Yuzhou have quite a lot of complaints. Please don't blame me, Lord Shang. Although Yuzhou has not been hit by disasters, it has also been harassed by Japanese pirates. Now there are rebels. I came here just to ask Lord Shang."

“When will the traitors be rehabilitated?”

While speaking, Ni Tiangui's eyes were always fixed on Shang Chuqing.

Looking at Shang Chuqing's expression which had never changed from beginning to end, the coldness in his eyes became more and more intense.

"Within two months, the traitor Chen Tiantao can be defeated."

Shang Chuqing said calmly without any hesitation.

Hearing this, Ni Tiangui suddenly became excited and immediately asked, "Are you serious?"

Chen Tiantao is currently the most powerful rebel in Yuzhou.

He was originally a fisherman, but his family was destroyed due to harassment by Japanese pirates. After hearing about Lin Zhongyun's story, he started a rebellion. Now he has more than 20,000 soldiers under his command.

"Shang, I never speak falsely."

Shang Chuqing spoke immediately.

"Okay! In that case, I am relieved."

Ni Tiangui stood up slowly, his eyes still fixed on Shang Chuqing, his expression becoming increasingly cold.

"Mr. Shang is still so arrogant!"

He sneered again, and seeing that Shang Chuqing still had no intention of speaking, he snorted coldly, with a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes: "Mr. Shang has been in the opposition for many years, don't you have any regrets?"

As he spoke, he raised his arm, shook his official robe, and sneered again: "If Lord Shang could change his temper, how could he not wear this red robe?"

Hearing this, Chu Yun's face immediately showed anger.

Shang Chuqing was determined to support Daqian throughout his life. Although he had never expressed any hatred during his many years in the opposition, as Shang Chuqing's disciple, how could he not hate him?

It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it, but now that this matter was brought up in person, how could he bear it?
But before he could speak.

Shang Chuqing's voice suddenly rang out.

"The red official robes are stained with the blood of the people."

Shang Chuqing looked at Ni Tiangui calmly, a trace of sadness flashed in his deep eyes, and he shook his head and said, "Shang, I don't bother to wear it."

"You!!!" Anger immediately flashed across Ni Tiangui's face, and his whole body trembled slightly.

But looking at Shang Chuqing's calm expression, he finally did not get angry.

Although his official position is nominally higher than Shang Chuqing's, he also understands that Shang Chuqing is not someone he can touch.

"After two months, if Chen Tiantao can't settle the matter!"

"I will not forgive you!"

While thinking, he suppressed his anger, looked at Shang Chuqing who had a calm expression in front of him and just snorted.

After saying that, he just turned away.

"gentlemen."

As Ni Tiangui walked out of the military tent, Chu Yun, who was standing beside him, could no longer bear it and could not help but ask, "Two months, is that enough?"

Chen Tiantao is also now guarding the city and not leaving.

Given that the military strength of both sides is almost the same, it is conceivable how difficult it would be to directly destroy this bandit.

But Shang Chuqing's expression did not change at all, as if he had already thought of everything. He looked at him and taught him calmly: "Yun'er, since you are the commander-in-chief of the three armies, you must control your emotions."

"Although this strategy of the enemy may affect our army's morale, our army can also use it to destroy the enemy!"

Hearing this, Chu Yun was stunned, and the doubt in his eyes became more intense.
