Chapter 956: Chapter 956: Keeping the Promise?

However, the appearance of the pigeons was too sudden, and they managed to shoot down 21 in all, seeing that each pigeon had a message attached to its leg, all written conspicuously with instructions from their own master about controlling the Ownerless Land.

The lead guard immediately understood from whose hand the pigeons came; he quickly wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to his master in Ning County via Homing Pigeon Message.

Just now, a flock of messenger pigeons had flown by in a whoosh, and he was not sure if all the pigeons were brought down. If there were any that escaped the net, it would be quite unfavorable for his master.

The upheaval at Three-Branch Junction two days earlier had already infuriated his master, but the master had temporarily gone to Ning County, sending only eight thousand soldiers to surround the exits of the Ownerless Land. He had not expected these people to dare rebel again, attempting to send a Homing Pigeon Message to Yuwen Luanfei to snitch, truly unaware of their impending doom.

The guard’s expression was grim. Ever since they had been severely outwitted by Ah Dao, he had been barely able to sleep, and now he was itching to eliminate this guy and only then would his hatred be appeased.

In the face of the guards’ fury, not only did these people not understand to avoid the sharp edge, but they also dared to persistently seek a presence like lingering spirits. The leader clenched his fists, vowing to seek justice for his brothers who had died in vain.

...

Meanwhile, the Autumn Equinox was approaching, and Yuwen Luanfei’s troops had already assembled at the border of Feng County.

Feng County belonged to the Imperial Capital’s territory, while the neighboring Ning County belonged to the Eastern Land.

Ever since the great chaos, Feng County and Ning County had become important battlefields. Now, both places were practically filled with soldiers, as the civilians had long left amidst the war.

Since the division of power, both locations were heavily guarded, with two armies facing each other, the lines between them clear as day.

Now, the Imperial Capital was assembling troops again not to recapture Ning County, but to borrow the road through it to head north to attack the Fifth Prince, and Yuwen Luanfei himself led the campaign.

With the appointed day just three days away, Yuwen Luanfei could not bring himself to smile.

He had advanced his troops to Feng County ahead of time but had yet to see his elder brother’s troops.

Although he had already opened up Stone County, Old County, and Feng County, if his elder brother had taken this route, they should have met yesterday.

But even now, there was still no sign of his elder brother, and Yuwen Luanfei faintly understood that this meant his elder brother had second thoughts at the last minute.

If his elder brother does not come... or even... takes the road to directly aim for the Imperial Capital, what should he do then?

But this thought was fleeting, as Yuwen Luanfei dared not dwell on it. He decided to trust his elder brother this time, as the Three Kings meeting had made things clear: their common enemy was not each other, but the Fifth Imperial Uncle.

Even if they were to fight until battered and bloodied, it would only benefit the Fifth Imperial Uncle in the end. It was better to focus their efforts on challenging the Fifth Imperial Uncle first.

Moreover, he had already promised that after dealing with the Fifth Imperial Uncle, he would withdraw from the struggle for the title of Crown Prince. Having conceded to such an extent, his imperial brothers surely could distinguish what was more important. freewёbnoνel.com

Besides, even if his elder brother does not come, his younger brother will certainly see things clearly.

Now, the ninth brother had in his command both his own elite troops and those of the third brother’s Eastern Army. Strictly speaking, his military force was not weak. Joining forces with him, they should have no problem handling the Fifth Imperial Uncle.

As long as the elder brother did not cause trouble from behind, everything was manageable.

Thinking of this, Yuwen Luanfei slightly regretted not leaving more troops behind. He should have left thirty thousand men for his young wife, not just three thousand.

But now it was too late for regrets, with the agreed time fast approaching. Yuwen Luanfei could only forge ahead with determination.

...

Before long, the Autumn Equinox arrived.

As per the agreement, today was the day of passage through Feng County and Ning County.
