My vicious dog, my horse, I can do whatever I want with it

The injury is real, and the dizziness is real.

However, although the injury on the neck looked scary, it did not actually hurt any vital parts.

The pierced shoulder was more serious.

When Zong Yanli woke up again, he had once again been stripped of his armor and wrapped like a dumpling. He was lying on his back on the bed, unable to lift his left hand at all.

"General, are you awake?" The person who came to treat Zong Yanli was none other than Feng Pei.

Zong Yanhongjing knew very well that there was no way Zong Yanli could survive the war without any harm. Instead of training other military doctors, it would be better to assign Feng Pei to her. Now, Feng Pei was the only one in the army who knew Zong Yanli's identity well, which could save her a lot of trouble.

Zong Yanli closed his eyes. Feng Pei walked up to him and sighed, "General, why are you leading the troops like this? You just added new injuries to your old ones..."

"Why can't I move my hands?" Zong Yanli asked in a hoarse voice with his eyes closed.

"Wen Nian's gun was unusual. The general suffered such a heavy blow and injured his bones. It's normal that he can't move for a while." Feng Pei said and sighed again, looking at Zong Yanli lying on the bed with complicated feelings.

"General, please take a rest. The mute servant is going to make medicine."

Since his last injury, this mute slave has stayed in the army. When he was dressed as a servant, he was often taken by Feng Pei to learn things like pharmacology and bandaging. At night, he would return to Zong Yanli's tent.

The generals below were not blind and could tell that the mute slave was a woman.

Zong Yanli has a different status, and his father is a great general, yet they can tolerate Zong Yanli having maids serving him. What can others say?

Everyone knew it tacitly, and those who knew it were only those who were close to Zong Yanli, so no one said anything more.

The mute slave usually did not leave the tent, and was not seen except by people close to Zong Yanli, so naturally he did not cause any disturbance.

When Zong Yanhongtu arrived, Zong Yanli had already put on his coat and was sitting upright against the bedpost.

"I have already put Wen Nian in prison." Zong Yanhongtu looked unhappy, and said in a deep voice to Zong Yanli, "Pei Liang has already told me that I know you and Wen Nian have a deep brotherly relationship. This is too risky!"

"You did it on purpose today. If you get hurt by him one day, what will you do?" Zong Yanhongtu said with a serious expression, "Should we kill him or send him away?"

"Second uncle..." Zong Yanli was a little helpless.

"Do you still want to keep him!?" Zong Yanhongtu was so angry that he wanted to jump up and down. He knew that Wen Nian was very capable and his fighting ability was almost equal to Zong Yanli's, but he was too unstable and it was really scary to see him on the battlefield.

"Second uncle, you should at least let me see him first, right?" Zong Yanli said with a wry smile.

Zong Yanhongtu said unhappily, "How can you leave when you are so badly injured? Just keep him locked up!"

Zong Yanhongtu stood up and waved his sleeves, looking at Zong Yanli and said, "Recover from your injuries. If the Qing Kingdom wants to attack the city, they won't come so soon. The emperor has sent reinforcements and they will arrive soon."

Zong Yanli's expression straightened slightly, and he raised his eyes and asked, "Who is coming to help?"

"Qin family, Qin Wujiu." Zong Yanhongtu responded in a deep voice.

Zong Yanli lowered his eyes and looked slightly thoughtful. The Qin family army and the Chen family army were evenly matched, but the Qin family's garrison in Kyoto was more favored by the emperor than the Chen family.

It is said that the Qin family and the Chen family have been fighting for several years, and the garrison was also won by the Qin family, so Chen Zhengxin came to Pingnan Camp.

In the previous life, the Chen family had never fought. After the Qin family became powerful, King Xuan had shown goodwill to the Qin family many times, but the Qin family never expressed their position. They had already joined the prince's camp and worked for him. It was precisely because King Xuan was unable to win over the Qin family that he turned to express his views to the Zong Yan family.

Qin Wujiu...

Zong Yanli closed his eyes and said nothing. Zong Yanhongtu gave a few instructions to Gao Feilin outside the tent to take good care of Zong Yanli, then got up and left.

When Qin Wujiu arrived in Changfeng County with 20,000 elite soldiers, Zong Yanli was still lying on the hospital bed.

During this period, the Kingdom of Qing challenged Zong Yanhong again, but Zong Yanhong tried to avoid the fight. However, this time the Kingdom of Qing did not launch a strong attack.

"Greetings, General Qin!" Zong Yanhongtu stepped forward and bowed.

"General Mingwei, there is no need to be polite." Qin Wujiu looked to be about thirty or forty years old, in the prime of his life, with a pair of extremely fierce and sharp eyes. He was wearing military armor and the red Qin family military flag behind him was particularly eye-catching. Next to Qin Wujiu followed a young general in red armor.

He is about the same age as Zong Yanli, and he is wearing a silver helmet and looks somewhat similar to Qin Wujiu.

Zong Yanhongtu couldn't help but take a few more glances. Qin Wujiu and Zong Yanhongtu walked into the tent before introducing them: "This is my nephew, Ning Chi."

"Everyone says that this nephew looks like his uncle. I almost thought this was your son, General Qin." Zong Yanhongtu understood and laughed twice in admiration.

"Hahaha!" Qin Wujiu was cheerful. He glanced at Ning Chi beside him and said, "This kid has been with me through many battles. This time he got the emperor's order to come to help, and he insisted on coming with me to show me."

"General Mingwei, there's no need to be polite. Just order him around!"

Zong Yanhongtu boasted a few words sensibly, and then Qin Wujiu asked about the situation in Yuanshi Pass.

He immediately ordered people to convene a meeting. Since Qin Wujiu was here, the responsibility of leading the troops was naturally handed over to him. He sat in the main seat and looked at our army's deployment. He nodded and said, "General Mingwei has been fighting against Qing Kingdom for many years. The important task of deployment should be handed over to the general."

"Add more soldiers to the main city tower and the position of the catapults..." Qin Wujiu was not an incompetent person. He had made great military achievements when Wu State was first established. This time, he came to provide assistance without any targeted intention.

Apart from adding soldiers to Zong Yanhongtu's defense, there was no major change. He also replaced the shield soldiers in front of the formation with his own soldiers, as if he felt that Zong Yanhongtu's shield soldiers were a bit crude, and his own weapons and armor were better at resisting in the front.

Zong Yanhongtu listened, and his originally anxious heart was relieved a lot.

He had never worked with Qin Wujiu, but had only heard a few things about his temperament. Naturally, he was worried that the commander would be difficult to get along with. But now it seems that he was worrying too much.

How could a man who became a commander-in-chief by relying on his military achievements gained through fighting be an incompetent person?

Not to mention Qin Wujiu, even the young general named Ning Chi is not an ordinary person.

While the generals were discussing matters, Ning Chi had already started fighting with several young generals under Zong Yanhongtu outside the tent.

When Zong Yanhongtu came out, he saw Ning Chi knocking down his own soldiers. The young general was brave and had some of Qin Wujiu's cheerfulness. He laughed and said, "But I knocked you down three times! You have to toast with this wine today!"

The general felt ashamed, dusted himself off and said, "We won't fight you. Even though you beat us, you are not the strongest. You still have to beat our young general!"

"That's right." They were all personal soldiers under Zong Yanhongtu. The young general they were talking about was none other than Zong Yanli.

"Oh?" Ning Chi said with a slightly arrogant smile, "Then just ask him to come."

"The young general was injured in the battle with Qing Kingdom a few days ago and is recuperating. There is no need to rush now since we are all in the army." Those soldiers and generals all had expressions of watching a good show. It was obvious that they had great expectations and hoped that Zong Yanli would get better soon and beat Ning Chi to make him suffer.

Zong Yanli didn't know that while she was recovering from her injuries, these soldiers had already put her on the shelf...

At this time, Zong Yanli had just changed the gauze and was moving his left hand. He felt a slight soreness in his left arm. It would take some time to fully recover.

When Pei Liang walked in, Zong Yanli was trying to use the left and right swords.

"General!" Pei Liang stepped forward and said, "The military doctor said that you should not exert any force on the wound on your shoulder."

"..." Zong Yanli curled his lips: "I'll give it a try."

Pei Liang stared at Zong Yanli seriously, forcing Zong Yanli to raise his hand and say, "Okay, okay, I won't move."

Why didn’t I think Pei Liang was so fussy before?

Zong Yanli muttered in his heart, then quietly sat back down beside the table and chair and said, "I heard that General Qin has arrived. Have you gone to see him?"

Pei Liang replied: "We have all gone to pay our respects to him. General Qin seems cheerful and easy to get along with. He has no airs. But General Qin's nephew is aggressive and belligerent..."

He has only been here for a few days, but he has already provoked all the generals in the army. We have no choice but to fight him!

"Who?" Zong Yanli was stunned when he heard that.

"It seems to be Ning Chi?" Pei Liang thought for a moment and answered.

Zong Yanli was silent.

Ning Chi is the son of Marquis Lin'an, and his mother is the eldest daughter of the Qin family, who is also the third wife of Marquis Lin'an.

Young men like Ning Chi are from a legitimate noble family. It is no exaggeration to say that they are the chosen ones of heaven.

In the previous life, the crown prince was deposed and the Qin family was implicated. Ning Chi single-handedly protected the younger generation of the Qin family, and the Lin'an Marquisate became his world.

Zong Yanli still remembers what Ning Chi looked like when he last saw him. Standing in the court, Ning Chi's eyes were filled with murderous intent. The Qin family was implicated because his mother committed suicide. He must not be a merciful person to be able to seize power from the marquis's mansion and kill his way out.

Ning Chi, who was standing in the court, looked at her, with coldness and murderous intent in his eyes.

The prince was killed by her and the Qin family was destroyed as a result. It was reasonable for him to hate her.

"The victor makes you a king and the loser is a bandit. What can you use to defeat me now?" At that time, Zong Yanli was a high-ranking official in the court. He had the credit of following the emperor and had tens of thousands of soldiers. He was invincible. His hatred was insignificant to Zong Yanli.

Zong Yanli pressed the meridians in his sore arm, lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Since General Qin has given us the order, there is no need to interfere. If it is just a competition, let him do what he wants."

Pei Liang nodded in agreement, and then said: "Then Wen Nian...does the general want to see you?"

"I called you here to take me to see him. Let's go." Zong Yanli put on his military armor, dressed neatly, followed Pei Liang out of the tent, and walked towards the prison camp.

In the prison cell, Wen Nian curled up in a corner, with shackles on his hands and feet, and even a chain around his neck. Looking at the chain tied around his neck, Zong Yanli frowned. Prisoners wore shackles, and only livestock were tied with chains.

Now that Wen Nian was treated like this, Zong Yanli naturally felt unhappy.

She asked Pei Liang to wait outside, but Pei Liang refused and followed Zong Yanli into the cage.

Wen Nian, who was curled up in the corner, seemed to have heard a noise and opened his eyes from his slumber. Looking through his messy hair, he saw Zong Yanli standing in front of him.

The chains made a sound, and he sat up with his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe it. The chain tied around his neck made a rattling sound. Wen Nian looked up at Zong Yanli, opened his mouth and called out in a hoarse voice: "General..."

Zong Yanli felt a little bit reluctant to see Wen Nian in such a posture, so he took a step forward and squatted in front of him.

Wen Nian looked at Zong Yanli and caught a glimpse of the scar on Zong Yanli's neck that had just healed and still had some red marks. His pupils suddenly shrank and his breathing became rapid.

The corners of his eyes were tinged with red, and his throat rolled. He stared at the scar on Zong Yanli's neck for a long time, then slowly lowered his head and said, "General, kill me."

"You would rather die than overcome the obstacles and stay with me?" Zong Yanli narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at him and said in a deep voice.

Wen Nian's body trembled slightly. He lowered his head and said nothing, so that no one could see the expression on his face.

Zong Yanli frowned: "Wenian, look at me."

Wen Nian seemed to clench his hands, and only raised his head after a long time. Zong Yanli in front of him had a solemn and resolute look without any disgust or blame. He looked at him firmly as usual and said, "If you really want to die today, I will grant you that wish."

"From now on, you are no longer a personal soldier under my command."

"The friendship we once had is gone, and the favor we have owed each other is severed. Is this what you wish?"

Wen Nian's eyes trembled: "No..."

Zong Yanli stood up, looked down at Wen Nian and said, "Wen Nian, do you want to hurt me a second time?"

Wen Nian, who was kneeling on the ground, felt his heart trembling, as if there were thousands of emotions pulling at his chest. Listening to Zong Yanli's words one after another, it was like needles piercing his heart, drilling into his mind, and stimulating his nerves over and over again.

"General..." Wen Nian looked at her, and in a trance he seemed to see Zong Yanli lying in front of him covered in blood. His breathing was a little heavy and there seemed to be cruelty in his eyes, but his mind was becoming clearer.

It seems that compared to the terrible tyranny, he is more afraid of...

It was Zong Yanli who fell in front of him again.

Zong Yanli turned sideways and said, "Starting tomorrow, I will have General Mingwei transfer you to the prison camp. I will wait for you to come back."

After saying this, Zong Yanli turned around and walked out of the tent, never looking back.

The so-called prison camp is where soldiers in the army are punished for disobeying military orders. They also interrogate spies, execute deserters and prisoners, etc.

She wanted Wen Nian to be the vicious executioner.

She wanted to push him into a bloody hell, and let him walk out by himself, step by step back to her.

"General! General Mingwei invites you!" Gao Feilin hurried over and bowed to Zong Yanli.

"It's just right. I should go and pay my respects to General Qin." Zong Yanli looked calm. He told Pei Liang to go back to the camp first, and he took Gao Feilin to the main tent.

Zong Yanhongtu and Qin Wujiu were in the tent. Zong Yanli entered and bowed, saying, "I, Zong Yanli, greet General Qin and General Mingwei."

Qin Wujiu raised his eyes and looked over: "You are Zong Yanli!?"

He walked around the table and called for Zong Yanli to stand up. He looked him up and down and said with a smile, "I have heard of your achievements a long time ago. I thought you were such a brave general. But today I see such a handsome young general!"
