The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

Chapter 343 Nalan Clan Motto: "Rewards for merit and punishments for crimes"

Soon, the group arrived at General Gu Er's tent.

General Gu Er and his trusted generals sat together, discussing the situation on the battlefield today, especially the elusive group of giant ants.

Suddenly, a general raised his voice and asked, "Now that the Xiao royal family is gone, no matter how brave and capable Witch Doctor Nalan is, she is still a woman and will marry into the Gu family sooner or later. Shouldn't the throne of the Nanyue Kingdom be given to someone more qualified?"

The discussions in the tent suddenly quieted down, and one could hear a pin drop.

General Gu Er's expression was solemn, and the greed and ambition in these generals' hearts were clearly visible.

It's nothing more than wanting to push the Gu family onto the throne, so that he can enjoy the merit of following the dragon and bring protection to his descendants.

General Gu Er also thought for a moment that the Gu family would become the new ruler of Nanyue Kingdom, but he immediately killed the idea.

Although the Gu family started their army from Shanshan Prefecture and occupied Shanshan and Litai Prefectures, they could not compare with the territory occupied by Nalan Witch Doctor.

Over the years, he has known clearly in his heart that the Gu family members are not suitable to be kings.

"Yes. The Gu family has been stationed at the border to protect the safety of Nanyue Kingdom. Now General Gu has become the emperor of Nanyue Kingdom, which is what everyone wants." Another person suddenly echoed, with greed flashing in his eyes.

General Gu Er's thoughts were interrupted. He came to his senses and slapped his palm on the table with a loud "bang". He said in a firm tone, "I don't want to hear you say that again."

After General Gu Er finished speaking, the tent fell into a brief silence.

Outside the tent, Lin Qiuer and Gu Anqing stood side by side quietly in the dark, and heard clearly the conversation inside the tent just now.

There was a faint smile on her face, but there was an imperceptible chill hidden in that smile.

Lin Qiuer clapped her hands, "Pa pa pa", the crisp applause seemed particularly loud in the silent night.

She slowly walked out of the darkness and into the tent, her eyes as sharp as torches as she scanned every general present.

"I admire General Gu the most for being a man who can see the reality so clearly." Lin Qiuer's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

"The fact that the Nalan Army has been able to take over the current territory proves that it is an inevitable trend. I don't have the nerve to give away something that was earned with the blood and lives of countless soldiers."

Lin Qiuer's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of those generals hard.

They looked embarrassed, some lowered their heads in silence, while others had deep eyes and were thinking secretly in their hearts.

This is literally pointing at their faces and calling them shameless.

When the atmosphere in the tent became subtle due to Lin Qiuer's sudden appearance, Gu Anqing and Second Uncle Gu exchanged glances.

Gu Anqing coughed lightly, drawing everyone's attention back to himself.

"Everyone," Gu Anqing's voice was steady and powerful. He looked around, his eyes revealing an unquestionable firmness.

“I, Gu Anqing, hereby declare that the relationship between Miss Lin and I will not affect the future of Nanyue Country.

The Gu family is upright and would not intentionally rob others of their treasures."

At this point, Gu Anqing paused, "I believe that no matter who becomes the new Lord of Nanyue in the future, he will treat the meritorious officials fairly and justly."

Lin Qiuer understood what Gu Anqing meant and smiled.

"My Nalan tribe has been doing this ever since modern witch doctors established the rule of 'rewarding those who have made contributions and punishing those who have committed crimes'.

If you have time during this period, you can go and talk to the generals in my Nalan army to see if it is true. "

As Lin Qiuer finished saying "merits must be rewarded, crimes must be punished", the faces of the generals in the tent, who were originally full of discontent, suddenly changed from gloomy to bright.

One of the generals who knew the situation was the first to break the silence. He stood up, bowed to Lin Qiuer, and said sincerely,

"Miss Lin is right. We are willing to follow General Gu and work with Miss Lin on the great plan for the Nanyue Kingdom. We will definitely fulfill our duties and live up to your expectations."

Lin Qiu'er was also very satisfied with this man's understanding and a smile appeared on her face.

Seeing this, General Gu Er spoke up at the right time and turned the topic to the next arrangements.

"Haha... now that we have reached a consensus, let's discuss the next plan."

"Listen to General Gu Er." Lin Qiu'er nodded, and walked to the desk with Gu Anqing. Immediately, a general gave up his seat to them.

After sitting down, General Gu Er continued, "Although the Yu family army suffered a lot of losses in the battle with the Nanyue Emperor's guards, our soldiers were also injured a lot, so we must act with caution."

When he said this, he thought that the soldiers on Lin Qiuer's side didn't seem to suffer many casualties, and he pursed his lips immediately.

In this great battle with Emperor Nanyue, the casualties of the Nalan soldiers were so few that they could almost be ignored.

Gu Anqing took over and said, "We now have two choices: one is to pursue the victory and directly attack the Yu family to completely take over Yunyang Mansion. The other is to rest temporarily and take action after the troops are restored. Both strategies have their pros and cons, so please feel free to speak your mind."

Upon hearing this, the generals began to discuss.

Some people advocated pursuing the victory, believing that morale was high at the moment and they should make a concerted effort to completely defeat the enemy.

Others believe that one should act cautiously, ensure one's own safety first, and then consider long-term plans.

During the heated discussion, Lin Qiuer always kept smiling.

When the generals stopped to drink water, he said, "The Yu family has been entrenched in Yunyang Prefecture for many years, and they were able to severely damage the Emperor's Guards of Nanyue Country, which shows that their strength should not be underestimated. Whether we want to pursue the victory or rest temporarily, we must think twice before acting."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and after some in-depth communication and analysis, they finally reached a consensus: Considering the losses of the Gu family army, the best strategy at the moment is to rest and replenish for two days, restore the troops, and set off three days later.

"Okay, since everyone has no objection, let's carry out this plan." General Gu Er made the decision, and at the same time he gave Lin Qiuer an appreciative glance.

Everyone agreed on the next strategy, and the generals were very smart and quickly left the tent.

In the tent, only Lin Qiuer, General Gu Er, Gu Anqing and Gu Anyuan were left sitting together, chatting about interesting things in the past. The atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

However, the tranquility was soon broken by the sound of hurried footsteps.

Then, the captain of the Luan team who was guarding outside the tent lifted a corner of the door curtain and reported a shocking news with a solemn look.

"Witch doctor, Emperor Nanyue is dead."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the tent froze in an instant.
