I am a living immortal.
Chapter 669: Asking for Help
In a world of demons, ordinary geniuses like the Commander couldn't comprehend it. He'd originally wanted to show off his power, but now he was stuck, neither advancing nor retreating. Fortunately, no one in high positions was shy; when they discovered a problem, their faces turned pale faster than anyone else's.
"The commander of the Imperial Guard, Wang Chute, has come to pay his respects to the Imperial Master."
As soon as he finished speaking, the feeling of being pricked by a thorn in his back disappeared. He actually felt regret amidst the murderous intent. How could this be so outrageous?
Actually, these monks and Taoists were not completely ignorant. If the guards had forced their way in, they would have been right to tear him to pieces on the spot. That was because they were new here and didn't know the rules. Moreover, the guy who was torn to pieces could have also reported his whereabouts by forcing his way in. Who knew if he was a criminal?
As for wearing official armor, we're shortsighted; we country folk wouldn't recognize it. Besides, armor isn't a pass. What if it's a disguise? And if we let them in so brazenly, wouldn't that be disrespecting the Imperial Guards? Oh, disrespecting the great man.
So it’s not that these monks and Taoists don’t understand, they understand it too well.
Unfortunately, the general in front of him was also very thick-skinned. Even in such a situation, he swallowed his anger and gave his name without changing his expression. If they fought again, it would be unreasonable.
Being too sensible is not a good thing. Why didn't you get angry? What a pity.
Only Wang Chu? Face? Face can be eaten or used as a military tool. Face is useless. If he cared about face, he would have been killed and wounded eight hundred times, and there was no way he could have sat on the position of commander. Being able to bend and stretch is the foundation of officialdom. Being upright and unyielding is a freak.
However, if one is known for being upright and incorruptible, he can achieve great things, just like the Imperial Censor.
I will offend everyone I want, no matter if you are the prime minister or a small official. If you displease me or do something wrong, I will report you. I don't care who you are. I treat everyone the same. It is precisely because of this fortitude that he stands out among the ministers. Isn't it true that everyone is promoted to a higher position?
However, this is just an exception and is not advisable.
This was Wang Chu's normal state. Of course, this only applied to unimportant matters. If it was a matter of national importance, he would remain steadfast and unyielding, even at the cost of his life.
It is also a unique characteristic of the Han people.
Only after the registration was completed did the gates of the Imperial Preceptor's Residence open. A Lingtai Lang, with a reluctant smile, ushered the Imperial Guard Commander in. Wang Chu's mouth twitched, but then he thought about it. Initially, these people were in the Tianjian Division, whose superior was Su Can, so most people were expected to be polite to him. Now, at the Imperial Preceptor's Residence, the same situation prevailed. The Imperial Preceptor was comparable to the Three Dukes, but now fully established, his title truly deserved, and his status was even greater.
Well, actually, their Guards were about the same, and if you had to calculate it, they were no worse than these two special departments, and in fact, even higher. But after all, they were asking for help this time, and if they were to speak too much, it would not get done.
The ways of the world. The ways of the world.
Soon, Wang Chu and his staff were brought to Chengtian Hall. As soon as they entered, they felt a difference: the space had clearly expanded significantly. The starry sky above Chengtian Hall now flickered and merged, appearing to be truly celestial.
Chen Dong sat in the center, surrounded by a tree of fire made up of lights connected one after another, with flickering flames.
Chen Dong opened his eyes and looked directly at Wang Chu.
Wang Chu actually had the illusion that he was seen through from the inside out.
"I already know your intentions," Chen Dong said slowly. "Although I can use this method to teleport thousands of miles away, regardless of space, and I can also ensure the safety of my soldiers, this teleportation is two-way. As you have seen before, I need to locate the location I want to teleport to. If it were just ordinary soldiers, they would generally not be able to detect it, but there are naturally experts among the Xiongnu and Baiyue. You hope to be silent, it is impossible."
Chen Dong informed the commander in front of him of the interests involved.
Wang Chu could obviously guess: "We don't want to send soldiers, but food and weapons. The northern border where the Xiongnu are located cannot sustain such a war of annihilation. We need to collect them from all directions, and this takes time. Even if all the warships are deployed, it will take a long time, and we don't have much time left."
"With your help, we can save this time and make the most thorough preparations. Although the Xiongnu are not as strong as the Han, their cavalry should not be underestimated. The grassland terrain is complex, and attacking the Chanyu's court will require more thorough adaptation."
Chen Dong nodded and said, "When will you need it?"
"The sooner the better. The food in the granaries in various places has been prepared." Wang Chu said with a wry smile.
He had just been busy dealing with the affairs of Buddhism and Taoism, and now he had to deal with this war of annihilation. Although he was a little embarrassed, after all, everything was for the Han Dynasty.
"Everything is for the Han people."
When Wang Chu heard these words from the mouth of the national teacher, he was shocked. This person learns so quickly and well.
Adding this after all the embarrassing words seems natural. And when Chen Dong said it again, there was a sense of mutual admiration, saying that he was a pillar of the country, a great talent of the country! !
The two sides are just short of becoming sworn brothers.
Of course, this feeling was only fleeting. Chen Dong stood up from the stone platform in the center and asked Wang Chu, "Do you have a map of the Han Dynasty?"
"Yes." Wang Chu glanced at the staff beside him, who quickly took out a sheepskin map from his sleeve, pointing out several major granaries.
"So where do you want to send it?"
The staff member thought for a moment, then glanced at the commander, who nodded to indicate that he could speak. Then the staff member pointed to another location.
Chen Dong nodded, then took the map from his staff and tossed it high into the sky. Instantly, the star-like blue dots of light in the sky disappeared into the map. On the map, the location the staff had pointed to suddenly lit up. Chen Dong closed his eyes and once again began his trance, using the map's directions to personally visit those granaries and establish connections.
When his soul returned to his body, Chen Dong opened his eyes and condensed a talisman in his hand.
He handed the talisman to Wang Chu and said, "This is the key to open the door."
Wang Chu took the talisman in a daze and asked subconsciously, "And then?"
"What then?" Chen Dong asked doubtfully, "Don't you just want to send food and fodder to the border?"
"Yes, that's enough for now, no need for follow-up." Chen Dong waved his hand, indicating that the other party could leave.
