Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

Chapter 555: The governor kneels down and begs for mercy!

In the tent.

Ye Chen looked at Han Wu and sneered: "I am the imperial envoy."

Hearing this, Han Wu feigned composure and said, "Are you the imperial envoy? Do you know that leading troops to besiege Longxi County without any reason is a serious crime?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen looked at Han Wu coldly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said with a smile: "It's not your turn to question my crime?"

"First, let me ask you, I summoned you here, but you refused to see me and left me outside the city. Do you acknowledge your guilt?"

Han Wu felt emboldened upon hearing this. He straightened his back and said loudly, "As the prefect, I naturally have the responsibility to protect the county city. The Tatar army is about to attack, and I need to ensure the safety of the city. I don't have the time to come and greet you."

"You, the Imperial Envoy, are so good! You've surrounded the city without any reason. This is tantamount to rebellion. Aren't you afraid?"

Hearing this, a cold light flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, and he took a few steps forward, each step seeming to carry a thousand pounds of force.

He stared into Han Wu's eyes and spoke each word with a strong voice, "Hmph, you are good at accusing me, but I am acting under the imperial decree and have the authority to mobilize the surrounding troops to deal with everything. You, a mere prefect, disobeyed my orders and are the one who is rebelling."

Hearing this, Han Wu couldn't believe it.

"what?"

An imperial envoy can actually mobilize troops from all over the place and handle everything.

This right is simply too great.

"Why? You don't believe it. Someone, bring out the imperial edict."

Soon, Cheng'en took out the imperial edict and gave it to Han Wu.

When Han Wu saw the imperial edict, his face turned pale and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He felt a surge of panic in his heart, and the little confidence he had disappeared without a trace.

Ye Chen looked at Han Wu's flustered look and secretly despised him in his heart.

The next moment, Han Wu's legs softened and he knelt down with a thud. He said tremblingly, "Sir, I was confused for a moment. I hope you will forgive me."

Ye Chen looked at him contemptuously and said, "Confused? I told you that you are rebelling."

Han Wu kowtowed and pleaded, "Sir, I was really confused for a moment. I won't do it again. I will fully cooperate with you from now on."

After hearing what Han Wu, the prefect of Longxi County, said, Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, but he didn't know his crime yet, so it was not easy to deal with him directly.

After all, what Han Wu said made some sense. If he was forcibly dealt with at this time, it might cause unrest in Longxi County.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Ye Chen's eyes. He waved his hand and said majestically, "Humph, you get up first."

Han Wu felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly got up from the ground.

Ye Chen then got on the carriage and entered Longxi County with his men under the leadership of Han Wu.

During this period, Han Wu walked cautiously in front, glancing at Ye Chen from the corner of his eyes from time to time, feeling extremely wary and frightened.

On the border of the Great Wall.

Yang Dechang returned to the main Tatar camp with 500 cavalrymen.

Yu Furuo had already received the news and came to greet him in person.

Yang Dechang was sitting in the carriage. When it stopped, he got off. Seeing Yu Fuluo, he shouted, "Chanyu, I'm back! This time I'm back with a full load!"

Yu Fuluo looked at Yang Dechang and the cavalry behind him, his eyes lit up with joy. He said, "Mr. Yang is truly amazing! Tell us quickly, what have you gained this time?"

Yang Dechang walked up to Yu Furuo and pulled out a list from his sleeve, saying, "Great Chanyu, this is the list."

Yu Fuluo quickly took the list, and after looking at it, his eyes lit up as he praised, "Excellent! Mr. Yang, it is a blessing for us Tartars to have your help."

A hint of viciousness flashed in Yang Dechang's eyes. He approached Yu Fuluo and said, "Great Chanyu, now we have troops and I am here. As long as you give the order, the army will rush into Dayu's territory, and we will definitely gain greater benefits."

Upon hearing this, Yu Fuluo frowned slightly, and after a moment's thought, he said, "General Yang, I understand your intentions. However, the Eastern Qiang are now gathering their tribes again and want to start a war with me. I must first deal with them. Otherwise, if we march into Dayu's territory in large numbers, our rear will be unstable and we will suffer great losses."

Yang Dechang frowned, his expression deep and profound as he said, "Chanyu, the Eastern Qiang are nothing to be feared. Just leave one soldier behind."

Yu Fuluo shook his head and said seriously, "No, Mr. Yang, if we want to launch a large-scale invasion of Dayu, I must first conquer the Eastern Qiang and take their food, fodder, and population. During this time, we can send small forces to invade Dayu. Mr. Yang, this is going to trouble you."

Hearing this, although Yang Dechang felt unwilling, he could only nod and say: "Chan Yu is wise, I will obey you."

Immediately afterwards, Yu Furuo collected the spoils and used them as rewards for the entire army. He then assembled 70,000 cavalrymen, left 30,000 cavalrymen for his son, and led his army out to the west that day!
