System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

Chapter 836

The flood had not yet receded, and the area within dozens of miles around Fancheng turned into a swamp.

Even if Dong Jun collected some boats, they would not be enough to supply the army to cross the river.

So until the flood receded, they could only watch.

Of course, if someone conspicuously fishes at this time, he or she may catch some rare species that have long been on the verge of extinction in the Yangtze River in later generations.

However, compared to the calmness of Dong's army, a coup had already broken out in Xiangyang City.

In recent years, because the Cai family has been like a fence-sitter, the status of the Kuai family in Jingzhou has been close to that of Liu Biao.

Of course, Liu Biao did not expect that on the same day, Huang Zu died, the Pang family declined, and the Cai family rebelled, leaving only the Kuai family in power in Xiangyang City.

"Your Majesty, all four gates of Xiangyang City have been sealed."

Wei Yan held a long knife and said to Kuai Liang.

"very good."

"General Wei should have been the military commander before, right?"

Kuai Liang rode his horse and looked diagonally downward.

"Exactly."

Wei Yan responded.

"From today on, you will be a lieutenant general."

Kuai Liang spoke in an indifferent voice.

"Thank you, Lord Fu, for the promotion."

"Yan, I will repay you with my life!"

Wei Yan was overjoyed. Although he knew that Jingzhou was in danger, at least he was promoted.

Later, when Dong's army took over Jingzhou, he would always promote some generals with no background to check and balance the people of Jingzhou.

Wei Yan not only had outstanding military talents, but also had a good political sense.

"General Wei, follow me immediately and lead the army to seize control of the Prince of Chu's Palace."

Kuai Liang whipped his horsewhip and sped away.

"Brothers, follow me!"

Seeing this, Wei Yan also got on his horse and followed.

More than 3,000 people marched towards the Prince of Chu's palace.

Liu Qi naturally smelled something different in Xiangyang City early in the morning.

As the crown prince of Chu, he naturally would not sit idly by and wait for death.

Although his prestige in Jingzhou was far inferior to Liu Biao's.

"Comrades, my father has treated you well."

"Today, some villains are trying to murder the king. I hope you can help Qi put down the rebellion."

"After this is accomplished, I promise you all that everyone will be promoted three levels."

Liu Qi, holding a sword and wearing armor, stood in front of more than a thousand soldiers and shouted encouragement.

"I am willing to die for you, sir!"

All the soldiers shouted loudly.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

Most of these people come from ordinary families and may never be able to make it in their lifetime.

But the promotion of three levels gave them a glimmer of hope.

Soldiers can be promoted to captains, captains can be promoted to Sima, Sima can be promoted to colonel or even lieutenant general.

As long as you can survive, it will be just a matter of time before you can join the upper class of Jingzhou.

"Brother, you can leave secretly later."

Huo Du whispered to Huo Jun.

"Brother, what about you?"

Huo Jun asked worriedly, holding the knife.

"Don't say anything, just listen to me."

Huo Du whispered a reminder and said nothing more.

The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. If Liu Qi finds out, the Huo family will be finished.

Although the Huo family is not a wealthy and powerful family, they are well-known in the local area.

The Huo brothers were extremely loyal and brave, so they were recommended by their hometown to participate in the war against Jingnan. With their bravery, the two brothers climbed up step by step to the position of military commander, which was already very good.

After all, they are still young.

Tap——

The sound of horse hooves and heavy footsteps could be heard on the street.

Kuai Liang was riding a horse, with three to four thousand armored soldiers following him and behind him. It was obvious that when Liu Biao was seriously ill, Kuai Liang took control of the army with his prestige.

"Lord Kuai!"

"Why did you bring troops here?"

"Are you planning a rebellion?"

Liu Qi held the sword in his hand, his eyebrows raised, and asked angrily.

"Didn't you already see it?"

"Liu Biao's incompetence caused the people of Jingzhou to suffer untold hardships and countless soldiers to die in battle."

"Today, Kuai will eliminate this incompetent ruler for Jingzhou."

"General Wei!"

Kuai Liang's eyes were cold, and he looked at Wei Yan after saying this.

"Brothers, follow me and kill!"

"Anyone who stands in the way will be killed without mercy!"

Wei Yan extended his sword and pointed it at the main gate of the Chu Palace and shouted loudly.
