Chapter 156 Being born as a Chinese is truly a great blessing in life!

When the princes of the Chenliu coalition once again had a fierce dispute over the position of alliance leader.

More than one million Chinese people in Youzhou and Bingzhou fell into the ravages of the Wuhuan and Xiongnu cavalry.

Within half a month, Bingzhou lost all the land north of Jinyang, and Youzhou lost more than ten cities including Shanggu and Yuyang.

Faced with the rampage of the Xiongnu and Wuhuan, Ye Feng, the Duke of Zhenbei, who was highly expected by the people of Youzhou and Bingzhou, did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he retreated step by step and did not even fight a battle in half a month.

There was endless cursing from the people, and many students, with the instigation and support of the aristocratic families, called on the more than 200,000 people in Fanyang City to defeat Ye Feng and stop the Wuhuan cavalry.

In the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, the people's angry curses were heard everywhere.

Guan Yu, Dian Wei, Zhang He and Zhang Liao were also unhappy. They did not believe the curses from the people outside, but they did not understand why Ye Feng did not take any action.

In their eyes, those Wuhuan cavalry were nothing but traitors, and no matter which battalion was dispatched, they could inflict heavy damage on them.

Even in Yuyang, if it weren't for Ye Feng's order, they would not have been lost.

"I want to go to the back garden to see my lord!"

"Even if it costs me my head, I will fight!"

"I cannot stand these barbarians trampling on the lives of ordinary people on Chinese soil."

Guan Yu growled with a stiff neck and a red face.

Zhang Liao, who was closest to him, hurriedly pulled Guan Yu back and said, "My lord is discussing countermeasures with Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, and Jia Xu. We have said that no one can enter. If we break in now, won't it displease my lord?"

"The people outside don't know what's going on, but we followed our lord through the bloody storm. Do you think our lord is the kind of person who is afraid of death?"

Guan Yu's face was still anxious, and he tried to defend himself: "But what is the lord doing?"

"Fishing!"

"What countermeasures?"

"I am a rough man and I don't believe what outsiders say, but what does the lord want to do? You have to give us a definite answer."

"Qiuliju's 100,000 cavalrymen arrived at Fanyang City. Did they get surrounded and then fight a breakout battle?"

"Will the casualties be even greater by then?"

"I don't know!"

"You are afraid of the lord's punishment, but I am not!"

"If you really want to kill me, just let me die on the battlefield. I will never live in disgrace!"

Guan Yu's words were full of righteousness, and Dian Wei beside him was also infected by it, with a strong fighting spirit flashing in his eyes: "Yun Chang is right, isn't the reason we join the army to defend our country?"

"How can we remain indifferent when the Rong and Di tribes are wreaking havoc and trampling on Chinese land?"

"Count me in!"

"I'm never afraid of death, as long as I don't die in frustration!"

Zhang Liao saw the two people looking at him, and after a brief bitter smile, he said: "Am I the kind of person who is afraid of death and dares not give advice?"

"Count me in!"

Three people expressed their opinions, and only Zhang He was left.

Zhang He was the first to follow Ye Feng. He knew that Ye Feng was meticulous and there must be a reason why he did not move.

He wanted to wait patiently, but all three of them had expressed their opinions, so what could he do?
If he retreated at this moment, he would inevitably be despised by the three of them. He was not a person who was afraid of death.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Let's go, break in now!"

"See what arrangements the Lord has made!"

After the four of them finished their discussion, they headed straight towards the back garden.

It didn't take long for them to reach the gate of the back garden. Before they could enter, they were stopped by the guards: "Four generals, no one is allowed to enter without the lord's order. Even if the sky falls, we will hold it up with our heads."

"Don't make things difficult for us!"

"Please step back, General!" Zhang He clasped his fists and bowed, "We are not trying to embarrass you, but we just can't stand the ignorant people outside scolding our lord."

"We must see the Lord today!"

Guan Yu, Dian Wei, and Zhang Liao all looked at the goalkeeper captain apologetically, and then moved.

The master of the celestial general moves as fast as lightning and as swift as thunder.

The figures loosened, and the four people's bodies turned into afterimages.

In just a moment, dozens of elite soldiers who were trying to stop them fell to the ground.

Guan Yu, Dian Wei, Zhang He, and Zhang Liao rushed in quickly.

Back garden, by the pond.

Four people stood in a row, holding fishing rods.

From left to right are Ye Feng, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai, the four people who were being cursed outside.

When he heard the fighting outside and felt the fluctuations of the unique power of the Heavenly General, a smile appeared on Ye Feng's lips.

"Guan Yu, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Dian Wei, greet the lord!"

"We have disobeyed the Lord's orders and deserve to be put to death!"

"But now is the time when the nation is in danger. Please, lord, leave our remains behind and let us die on the battlefield."

"When the Wuhuan cavalry is defeated, we will naturally offer our heads!"

The four of them knelt on one knee in front of Ye Feng and kowtowed three times.

Ye Feng put down the fishing rod in his hand, turned around, and looked at Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai with a smile on his face: "Who won and who lost the bet two days ago?"

Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai looked at each other and smiled bitterly, "My lord has a keen eye for talent. All the brave generals under your command are loyal and have integrity. They are the backbone of China."

“No matter how chaotic the world is, there will always be a large number of heroes who are willing to stand up and fight for the nation and the people regardless of the consequences!”

"Being born Chinese is such a blessing in life!!"

Ye Feng laughed loudly and waved to Guan Yu and the other three: "Get up!"

"What crime have you committed?"

The conversation between the four people made Guan Yu, who had just gotten up from the ground and was feeling uneasy, look confused.

They came here with the intention of dying, but they didn't expect that Ye Feng didn't get angry or even show any sign of anger.

What's the matter?

Sensing the doubts in the four people's eyes, Jia Xu, who was most familiar with them, smiled and explained: "Three days ago, the lord made a bet with us that the four generals would not lose their own character because of their awe and worship of the lord."

"You will definitely abandon life and death and break into this back garden."

"Originally, we would have won in just two hours!"

"I didn't expect you guys to finally break in, so the three of us are defeated."

Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai smiled at each other and said, "Although we were defeated, we were able to see the elegance of the generals. It was a satisfying defeat and it was well deserved!"

Guan Yu and the other three suddenly realized what was going on, and they were completely relieved. Zhang He, who was the most hesitant, kept wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

If he had not come in just now, even if Ye Feng didn't say anything, he would have been dissatisfied with him, and by then he would have been unable to make any further progress. The risk he took just now was worth it. The lord really can't judge it by common sense!
Guan Yu and the other three felt relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked impatiently, "My lord, what exactly is your plan?"

"Can you tell us clearly?"

"We can't just sit there and watch the Chinese people get robbed, displaced, and their families destroyed!"

"My Lord, when shall we send out our troops?"

"How about killing the Wuhuan cavalry?"
