Chapter 122 Waiting and Planning

"Report... Report... Zhen'an Pass is in danger... The gate has been breached, and 100,000 Su's troops are defending the pass with all their might, suffering heavy casualties..."

In the border town of Zhen'an, a soldier galloped on his horse, his expression was particularly solemn. When he arrived at the gate of the General's Mansion, he did not even pull the reins to rein in the horse, but directly raised his left leg high, swung it to the right, and then slid down the horse's back. At the same time, he took out a golden medal from his right hand, and rushed into the courtyard of the General's Mansion in just a moment. Then, a deafening alarm sounded from deep inside the mansion, shaking the eaves and tiles to pieces.

Upon hearing this, Su Zhenguo immediately jumped up, looked at the messenger who was kneeling on one knee in front of him, and asked hurriedly:

"How are the eight commanders?"

"Eight great commanders..."

However, the soldier who was delivering the message got stuck in the middle of his words, and hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to explain.

Su Zhenguo looked anxious, he couldn't waste time here, his red eyes suddenly widened, he shouted:

"Say!"

The sound was as deafening as thunder, but it also helped the messenger to figure out some key points, and his speech became more fluent:

"Reporting to the general, the eight commanders are suspected to have been attacked by someone, and their lives and deaths are currently unknown..."

"'Suspected'! 'Plot'!"

Su Zhenguo was muttering to himself, as if he was petrified, his whole body was frozen in place. These short two words, four characters, had already made Su Zhenguo associate them with too many things.

Zhen'an's 'pass' was lost for no reason, and the commander of the troops cleverly made a 'secret plot'. There are not so many 'coincidences' in this world. There are only 'calculations' and 'conspiracies'.

"Ahem...Zhen...Guo...Ahem..."

Suddenly, the left sleeve of his robe twitched slightly, and a gentle but weak voice slowly sounded. It was Li Yuehua, who was sitting next to him with a pale face.

He was weak, his eyes were lifeless, and he spoke with intermittent coughs and gasps. Even the simple action of raising his hand to pull his sleeve seemed so difficult at this moment. Could it be... really... that the end was coming?

"Wow..."

Su Zhenguo was shocked when he heard this, and he suddenly woke up, but the clear bloodshot in his eyes also proved that he was exhausted.

His lover was on the verge of death, the war at the pass was intense, and Chen'er hadn't returned for three years. All these things finally made Su Zhenguo's spirit and blood weak to the extreme. The "blood frenzy" that he was proud of in the past had lost its original power. The heroic spirit of "blood eyes killing 30,000 miles, swearing not to return until the southern barbarians are wiped out" had long disappeared, and there was only dejection.

Turning around, Su Zhenguo helped his wife sit up straight. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he was reluctant to let her go. He gently stroked his wife's soft and cold hand to comfort her. Then he turned around and gave the order to the messenger below:

"...select the troops...follow me to 'go to war'..."

Although he knew that all this might be in vain and that the other party's "planning" for many years was just for today, sitting and waiting to die was definitely not Su Zhenguo's character.

"I would rather die in battle than live on my knees...but...ah..."

With a sense of guilt in his heart, Su Zhenguo once again looked at Li Yuehua, whose beautiful eyes were filled with tears. When he was about to leave, a familiar voice with a smile and great pride sounded from the door:

"Haha... what a pity, I guess... you can't leave today!"

"Big brother..."

Upon hearing this, Su Zhenguo naturally recognized the person immediately, because the person in front of him was Su Zhenguo's elder brother, Su Zhenpeng.

He was wearing a brocade blue robe, and his face was about 50% similar to Su Zhenguo, but there was a gloomy look between his eyebrows, which ruined his temperament. How should I put it - anyway, he didn't look like a good person...

As expected, the moment he heard Su Zhenguo call him "Big Brother", Su Zhenpeng's eyes, which originally contained a smile, turned completely cold. With a bit of "morbid" disdain on his face, he opened his mouth and sneered:

"Big brother? Haha... I don't deserve it... As a great general of 'Zhen Guo', why would you care about me, your 'big brother'..."

As soon as the words fell, without waiting for Su Zhenguo to say anything, Su Zhenpeng suddenly trembled all over, his face twisted rapidly, and his expression was even a little crazy. He stared at Su Zhenguo and said ferociously:

"Things...that once belonged to me, today...I will take them back...at any cost...Don't think...I will show mercy...just because you call me 'big brother'! Today...you and her...will both...die for sure..."

"It's you?"

"it's me!"

'Su Zhenguo' asked somewhat weakly, and 'Su Zhenpeng' replied with smugness and a crazy smile.

Then he seemed to feel that it was not exciting enough, nor satisfying enough. After thinking for a while, Su Zhenpeng laughed wildly at Su Zhenguo again:

"Ten years of waiting, eight years of planning... this day... I finally waited for it... I finally waited for it... hahaha..."

At this point, tears seemed to well up in Su Zhenpeng's eyes, which originally revealed a ferocious look. He actually cried...

The laugh was very 'crazy', the cry... of course... was also very 'abnormal'——
