Chapter 2: Destiny is bestowed upon you, the Void Altar!
"General Xu! What are you doing..."

A scream suddenly sounded from behind Xu Beichen.

They were the civil servants who came with Sun Qian, and their expressions were distorted with fear.

Sun Qian, the Minister of War, was an official appointed by the imperial court.

He died in the Beiliang Iron Cavalry camp that was delivering the imperial edict!
however.

The reaction of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry generals was even faster!

Without any orders from Xu Beichen, they all set off tacitly.

The movements were extremely swift and the coordination was particularly tacit.

The cold blade makes your neck feel cold!
In the Beiliang Iron Cavalry Camp, outsiders cannot escape even if they have wings!
Until then.

Then the generals turned to Xu Beichen.

Although he was still shocked, he never expected the general to kill someone suddenly.

But there was no trace of doubt in their eyes.

The Beiliang cavalry have always obeyed the orders of their generals and respected their chief commander.

The general's orders are everything!
Xu Beichen gripped the big knife tightly, his heart beating inexplicably.

But in an instant, calm returned.

After all, his predecessor was a battle-hardened general who had killed countless enemies, so killing one person would not be enough to affect his state of mind.

He noticed the voice in his head, but now was not the time to check.

He swung the big knife in his hand, and the blood was splashed along the blade, without a drop of blood on it!

Nice knife!

Xu Beichen secretly praised and looked at the original owner of the sword.

This is his deputy general, Wang Wu, the Great Sword Master.

He once led 10,000 Northern Liang cavalrymen deep into the enemy's territory and defeated 50,000 Northern Mang troops.

He even chopped off the enemy general's head with one sword in the chaos of the army!
"Wang Wu, take them away first."

Xu Beichen threw the sword back into Wang Wu's hand.

We have been comrades in arms for ten years. There is no need for explanation. We have already shared life and death together.

Although killing an official appointed by the imperial court can be considered as treason.

However, since ancient times, no one has acted under the banner of treason.

Even said.

As long as he doesn't declare treason in public.

Even the Dayang court did not dare to easily judge him as a traitor!
Three hundred thousand Beiliang cavalrymen, if they rebel.

It would be a loss that the Dayang Dynasty could hardly bear!
Not long after.

Only Xu Beichen and a group of generals were left in the tent.

Wang Wu glanced at Sun Qian's body lying in a pool of blood, then turned to Xu Beichen.

However, there was still a hint of doubt and uneasiness in his expression.

"General, now that we have killed Sun Qian, are you... still going back to the capital?"

For a while.

All the generals stared at Xu Beichen, their expressions extremely nervous.

What they were worried about was never the consequences of killing a vice minister of the Ministry of War.

It was Xu Beichen's decision.

If the general returns to Beijing, he will die!

But according to their understanding of Xu Beichen, they are afraid that due to his utter loyalty to the Dayang court, he would return to the capital to report even if he died!
Even if he killed the Minister of War, he might just be worried that Sun Qian would damage the reputation of the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry...

Xu Beichen took in everyone's reactions and knew their concerns.

Who among those who can follow him into the camp to receive orders today is not a comrade-in-arms with whom he has entrusted his life?
even.

Wang Wu and others had also privately advised their predecessor to respect him as the master!

It’s a pity that my predecessor was too upright and did not agree.

As for returning to Beijing...

The imperial envoy was killed, what's the point of returning the favor?!
As long as he still commands the Northern Liang Cavalry, the Dayang court will have to be wary of him.

He did not answer everyone directly, but gave orders in a deep voice.

"Send someone to report back to the court first..."

"Sun Qian, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, attempted to disrupt the morale of the army and was killed on the spot by this general!"

"In addition, our army is about to fight a great battle with Beimang. We must conquer the old mountains and rivers for Dayang, and we cannot afford any mistakes at this time."

The words fell.

The generals' expressions suddenly froze, and their eyes revealed lingering surprise and excitement.

How could they not understand what Xu Beichen meant?
"General, you really don't plan to go back?"

Wang Wu slapped his forehead, a look of deep surprise showing on his face.

The sturdy figure was trembling slightly.

He really didn't expect that the general would change his usual behavior and no longer be blindly loyal.

The other generals were even more so, and they were completely relieved for Xu Beichen.

Xu Beichen looked at this group of soldiers and smiled heartily.

If he returns to Beijing, these confidants will also die. And now these people are his important forces to survive in this world!
While the generals were happy, some of them looked at Sun Qian's body, frowned and reminded Xu Beichen.

"Sun Qian must be Prime Minister Cai's lackey."

"The court summoned the general back to the capital this time, which must have something to do with Prime Minister Cai!"

"General, you must be on guard against any future plots by Prime Minister Cai."

Cai Song, the Prime Minister of the Dayang Dynasty, was a veteran of two dynasties and held great power in the government.

It is said that the entire Ministry of War is under his control.

In the past, when my predecessor was on the march and fighting, he was often controlled by this person and his military pay was delayed.

The fact that Sun Qian dared to recite the memorial in front of him this time was naturally instructed by Cai Song.

Think for a moment.

Xu Beichen smiled coldly: "Then when you report back to the court, add this sentence..."

"My Beiliang Iron Cavalry has already found out that Sun Qian is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country!"

Sun Qian was suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying his country, and he was also a lackey of Prime Minister Cai Song.

Then.

Is Cai Song also involved?

Everyone immediately understood Xu Beichen's intention and felt happy.

This is a way to trip up Cai Song!
Make sure of these.

Xu Beichen waved again.

"The war is imminent, don't let these trivial matters delay you."

"Let's prepare for battle first."

Today, the Beiliang cavalry is in the northern border camp, ready to fight with the Beimang army.

This battle was the first time that the Northern Liang cavalry fought to recover the old country after resisting the invasion of the Northern Mang!

The morale of the generals was already high and they did not hesitate at all.

After paying their respects to Xu Beichen, they left.

Finally, Xu Beichen was the only one left in the entire tent.

Xu Beichen sat back in the main seat, impatiently pondering the sound he had heard earlier.

Just a thought.

A virtual panel like a scroll appeared in front of his eyes.

[Destiny is added, get destiny value +10000]

[You coordinate military affairs, gain destiny value +500]

"Destiny?"

Xu Beichen was confused.

"This should be similar to... the embodiment of luck?"

In the memory of my previous life, there is a concept called "luck" in this world.

For example, in the palace of the Dayang Dynasty, there is a golden lotus that represents the national destiny of the entire dynasty.

It is said that when the sun is at its peak, nine golden lotuses bloom together, creating a magnificent sight!

now.

But only six were left, representing the decline of Dayang's national fortune...

Take back your thoughts.

Xu Beichen began to study this so-called destiny value again.

"It should be that as long as I do things that increase my own luck, I can gain destiny points."

"But what does this thing do?"

As soon as he thought of this, the scene before his eyes changed.

Come back to your senses.

Xu Beichen found himself on an altar.

The entire altar seemed to be floating in the void, and it was pitch black in all directions.

The altar is paved with white stone, with stone pillars rising from the ground, engraved with intricate patterns, solemn and sacred.

With him as the center, golden light spread around.

It was like reflecting a big sun, with golden light flowing.

at the same time.

The illusory scroll that appeared in front of Xu Beichen seemed to become real.

The text on it also changed.

[Current Destiny: 10500]

[The destiny value has reached 10,000, and you can perform the first-level blessing]

[Accumulate 100,000 destiny points to unlock the second-level blessing]

"Pray for blessings?"

Xu Beichen narrowed his eyes.

This has to be the most practical benefit!
