Chapter 437 Black Heart, Hot Hand

A war was fought over women.

The war was thus jokingly called the Red Apricot Rebellion by many descendants.

The red apricot wall reaches from the brother's house to the brother's house, causing the brothers to be estranged, cut off their robes, and become immortal rivals.

It seemed as if the word "red-faced scourge" was still more aptly applied to Feng Ting.

This restless woman always wants more.

Her arbitrary behavior gave an opportunity to someone to take advantage of the situation, and that person was Fu Lan.

If it wasn't for her divine assistance, Fu Lan was no longer capable, but it was also difficult to shake the root of wind chess, and the plan to mess up wind chess was bound to be difficult to realize.

Of course, the real reason for the war was certainly not because of the women; Feng Ting's role was at best a catalyst, a trigger.

The role she played was only a supporting one, and could only be characterized as an assistant; it was the two blood brothers who sang the lead.

The main thing that turned them completely against each other was the throne, the power, and the woman was nothing more than a prize, and whoever won in the end had dominion over her.

But the world wouldn't see it that way, in their eyes, Feng Ting was the culprit, the one who needed to be held responsible for the war.

As with the An Shi Rebellion, many Tang eyes were fixed on Yang Guifei, believing her to be the origin of the scourge.

Few analyzed the social conflicts of the time and the real causes of the scourge, but simply defined a woman as guilty.

Fair? Definitely not fair, but it had to be done.

A very contradictory statement, but a reality.

In a male-dominated society, the Tang needed a scapegoat, someone to take responsibility, and that sealed Yang Guifei's fate.

So, in the eyes of a woman, it's not fair, in the eyes of a man, it's fair, status determines discourse, it's as simple as that.

Back on the battlefield, the Rain Brand Battalion's light cavalry assaulted and pounded the Wind Brand Battalion's defensive formation.

Keeping in mind Fu Lan's advice, Feng Lan used the camp as a base and defended it, stopping the enemy in every way.

The battle immediately went to white heat.

Swords and blood, people falling over.

The sound of arrows, broken armor, and miserable cries resounded through the four fields.

The more the generals on both sides fought, the more they suffocated and the more upset they became.

Yesterday is still the same robe, today kill each other, yesterday the wine, today you die, many people can not figure out the meaning of war.

After a few rounds of charging, the Rain Brand light cavalry suffered heavy losses and had to rout down.

Facing the well-organized, layer-by-layer defense of the Wind Brand army, the Rain Brand light cavalry could not take any advantage and had to temporarily retreat and wait for backup.

As a brilliant military man, Feng Lan immediately seized the opportunity.

Several flag officers stepped out on their horses and shouted in front of the two armies, "All of you are Wind Chess citizens, the Regent King treats you well, why do you rebel!"

The flag officers circled their horses and repeatedly shouted, and the wind-branded soldiers were agitated and gradually transformed into a momentum.

The Rain Brand generals, on the other hand, were demoralized, and many of them bowed their heads in speechlessness.

An inexplicable war has turned former comrades into rivals, and it's clear that the other side is occupying the greater good, and this side is the rebel.

Feng Ling sighed secretly and closed his eyes in pain.

If it weren't for their baby sister, why would the family have rebelled.

Now that we are on this path, there is no turning back, so we can only grit our teeth and keep going.

Let's leave them aside for now and talk about Fu Lan.

The little runt led 20,000 light cavalry and sped to the king's capital at fire speed.

Relatively speaking, they're slow.

A part of the Rain Brand Battalion had already set out to rush to the royal capital, intending to seize the city and take control of the center of the country.

However, the rain-licensed light cavalry had all gone to the front, and the rest of the army was mostly infantry, with a limited number of accompanying cavalry, which did not dare to venture in with a light army at all.

Fu Lan's men are all light cavalry, and have an absolute advantage in speed, although the army is late, but it is the first to arrive after the first step back to the king's capital.

After the horse team rushed into the city, Fu Lan immediately took out the seal of the regent and ordered the four gates to be tightly closed, the drawbridge to be suspended high, the arrows to be strung and the swords to be sheathed to strictly prevent the rebels from attacking the city.

Before they could complete their deployment, Windy State's army arrived.

Some people shouted at the bottom of the city to open the door, and Fu Lan probed and cursed from the city wall, "You and other rebel pikers, losing your conscience, shameless, all the troops, give me arrows!"

With a command, ten thousand arrows were fired from the city walls, and the Wind State Army was forced to retreat backward and hide out of the range of the arrows!

The general in charge of the army was in a dilemma, the summit only ordered them to seize the city, it didn't say that they were allowed to attack the city, and now, the king's capital had already taken precautions, so what should be done?

Moreover, in order to travel light and fast, they did not carry siege equipment, and the royal capital had high walls and tight defenses, so there was no way for them to attack the city.

However, if he chose to retreat on this, he was afraid that he would not be able to account for it in front of the card master, and it was not possible to go in and out of the army for a while.

There was no other way but to order someone to hurry up and send a letter to the card master, whether to fight or retreat, it is better to ask the lord card master to decide!

Seeing that the enemy army had retreated, Fu Lan gave a cold snort and instructed his men, "Come on, capture all the family members of the leader of the thieves, and don't miss a single person!"

Within a short time, there was chaos up and down the city walls, with cries of grief.

Someone reported to Fu Lan that the relatives of the officials above the commander of the Rainbow Battalion were captured, from the eighty-year-old man down to the breastfeeding babies, and none of them escaped.

Fu Lan nodded and immediately passed down the order, "Starting with Feng Batian, execute the entire family, hang their heads in public, and throw all the corpses over the city wall."

Several of the generals in charge of the army were shocked, and they all looked at each other, none of them daring to take orders.

Fu Lan said grimly, "What, do you also want to rebel against the court?"

The people said they didn't dare and immediately ordered the sergeant to carry out the order.

On the city walls, a brutal tragedy began to unfold.

Groups of rebel families were escorted up to the citadel and died horribly under the butcher's knife.

A head was hung up and a body was thrown off the wall.

The Wind State Army was so shocked that many of them let out a cry.

Some even led the charge regardless.

The results were, without exception, blocked by a heavy rain of arrows, unable to approach the city walls at all.

Fu little runt is really ruthless ah, he intentionally made this tragedy, cut off everyone's retreat, so that the two opposing sides no longer have the possibility of reconciliation.

After slaughtering all the relatives of the leader of the bandits, Fu Lan planned to escape.

He had already taken things to the extreme and could be said to have offended everyone, so it was expected that Feng Lan would not even spare him.

Continuing to stay here any longer is destined to be a dead end.

Hurry up and run away before both sides react, this credit is weighty enough, and the Great Grandmaster will love this meet-and-greet gift.

He was right in thinking that Grandmaster would love the meet and greet gift, but Grandmaster certainly wouldn't.

In order to keep her husband's innocence and loveliness intact, she was determined not to allow him to play with bad children and, therefore, would definitely clean up after him.

As for how to clean it up, it depends on the mood of the Great Basilica.

The good thing was that the Great Grandmaster would surely appreciate him, and with the Great Grandmaster around, he shouldn't be at risk of losing his head.

Some people might say that Lin Wan has not been over-regulating!

What should I say? You can't blame the Queen for that.

After all, she was the one who had been the head of the house, had seen too many people, knew too much, and knew her own master too well.

As the saying goes, those close to Zhu are red, those close to ink are black. Little Brother Li doesn't need to be close to ink to be quite black, and if he's allowed to travel with the bad guys again, his future is unimaginable!

The crux of the matter, this bad guy is well and truly still his strategist, so will there be a lop-sided situation.

Lin Wanter was worried about that kind of situation and made sure to emphasize the White Lotus nature of the team, with everyone striving to be a model of morality, and those who didn't make the cut, had to be rehabilitated.

If Little Brother Li refuses to join the stream, then take away his power and dismiss his soldiers, and Sisters will personally charge into battle, so that he can do a good job as a wise wife.

That night, after arranging his defense, Fu Lan found an excuse to sneak out of the royal capital, taking advantage of the night to slip away.

He and Pei scribbles have discussed, will friends and family, like-minded people are sent to the countryside in advance, just waiting for this side of the victory, together to join the great basilica army.

Besides, in front of the Wind Chess Camp, Feng Ling had already gotten the report that the plan to attack the king's capital was unsuccessful, and now, the two sides were confronting each other, and the situation was at a stalemate.

Feng Ling let out a bitter smile and shook his head slightly, he knew that he had already lost his chance, and it was pointless to fight any longer.

So, the order was given to retreat and the army was led back to the Rain Brand camp.

The army that raided the royal capital had also been recalled by Feng Batian, and at the same time, they brought back a shocking news.

Feng Lan was so heartless that he beheaded all the family members of the officials above the commander of the Rain Brand Battalion, the heads were displayed in public, and the bodies were thrown into the moat.

The battalion was full of generals pounding their chests, and many of them bawled, followed by gnashing of teeth and swearing of vengeance.

Feng Ting sat numbly in her chair.

She fantasizes over and over again, and is dashed until news of her loved one's murder arrives, and she realizes just how wrong she was this time.

Equally as numb as she was was Windland.

The wise regent finally sensed something was wrong.

Fu Lan's move seems to be a great relief, but in fact, it sets him up for injustice, and even makes him bear the name of patricide, what does that little runt want in the end?

He did not expect Fu Lan to do this at all, and was unprepared for it, and by the time he knew the news, those people had long since become ghosts under the knife.

So to speak, Fu Lan's capture of the royal capital was a great achievement, and the killing of the rebels' relatives was a great evil, which completely spoiled a good hand.

Could it be that Feng Lan didn't want to kill those people?

That's for sure, it would do no harm, no good, except to force the rebels to make up their minds to rebel.

If it were Feng Lan, he would not have killed anyone.

Instead, he would treat those people well, have them persuade their loved ones to turn back, and sensitize the rebels with compassion so that they would make the right choice.

Even doing nothing and holding that group hostage would be good.

As a result, the Fu little runt chit-chat all chopped up.

This is good, people completely have no worries, not only no worries, but also hate Feng Lan to the bone, not to push him off the throne, certainly will not stop.

Feng Lan really wanted to personally go back to the royal capital and ask Fu Lan face to face why he was doing this, with his mind, couldn't he figure out these reasons?

Until now, he hadn't doubted Fu Lan's loyalty.

It was the benefactor who had saved him from danger, the able minister in distress, and in his eyes, it was his Prime.

It hadn't even occurred to him that all the mischief had been started by this little runt.

This ugly-looking, ruthless little runt was the real culprit.

Under his hand, brothers turned against each other, lovers became enemies, and turned the former family into complete enemies.
