Chapter 670

Chicken Brother was too perfect.

Besides singing, dancing, rap, and basketball, he was multi-talented and could do everything; he was an undisputed all-around talent.

……

Nowadays,

inertial thinking was at work,

causing Ju Shou not to have any excessive suspicion of these few trusted aides under Shen Pei.

After all,

the thinking of the "Celestial Dragon" class had long since been deeply ingrained in Ju Shou's heart.

In his eyes, low-level domestic slaves should unconditionally support all instructions from the aristocratic masters.

Betrayal?

Would these domestic slaves dare?

Thus,

in order to rescue Ye City, Ju Shou immediately ordered the entire army to speed up and enter forced-march mode.

For him now, time was undoubtedly quite precious.

This move, however, drew dissatisfaction from Cao Ren.

"Ju Gongyu, what do you mean by this?"

"We are just guest troops, not an army under your command; why should we be tossed around like this?"

Cao Ren's words resonated with Su Puyan and Yan Rou.

Although everyone understood the principle of "when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold,"

but in a coalition, there would never be a shortage of conflicts.

Cao Ren felt sorry for the severe physical exhaustion of his soldiers,

while Ju Shou was burning with anxiety to get on the road, wishing he could split one soldier into two to use.

However,

if he didn't handle the emotions of Cao Ren and the others in time, Ju Shou's situation would become very passive.

After thinking about it, Ju Shou smiled:

"Cao Zixiao, do you think that if Ye City falls, there will be any benefit for you?"

"I tell you, if Ye City falls,"

"with Gu Linzhi's ruthlessness, you, including the army under your command, will not be able to leave Jizhou safely!"

With Ju Shou's pride, it was naturally impossible for him to put aside his prejudices and negotiate with Cao Ren in a gentle tone.

Threats combined with coercion were his main melody.

"You…"

Cao Ren was speechless.

Although he really wanted to see Ju Shou make a fool of himself,

what Ju Shou said was indeed correct.

Once Ye City fell, Gu Yi would definitely use Ye City as a base to launch a sweep of Jizhou's other territories.

By then,

let alone the troops led by Cao Ren,

even the armies of Su Puyan and Yan Rou would find it difficult to escape.

As the saying goes,

"If it doesn't concern you, hang it high."

But once the development of events seriously affected one's own interests, everything would become quite sensitive!

Looking at the deflated Cao Ren, Su Puyan, and Yan Rou,

Ju Shou felt a sense of secret satisfaction in his heart.

If he couldn't beat Gu Yi, couldn't he handle these three guys?

Next,

Cao Ren, Su Puyan, and Yan Rou became much quieter.

They silently followed behind Ju Shou with their troops.

Whether Ye City was lost was no longer just the business of Ju Shou and the Yuan camp soldiers,

but the business of everyone in the coalition.

Little did they know,

the path following Ju Shou was not leading to a broad road, but to a desperate dead end.

……

After several hours of trekking,

Ju Shou and the others finally arrived at the outskirts of Ye City.

Just as those trusted aides of Shen Pei had told them,

on the outskirts of Ye City, many of Gu Yi's army camps were stationed.

And around the camps, there were quite a few soldiers patrolling.

It seemed that this should be the temporary base camp built by Gu Yi on the outskirts to attack Ye City.

Looking at these camps,

Ju Shou couldn't help but have a plan arise in his heart.

Gu Yi likes to launch sneak attacks, right?

Today, let him properly experience the taste of being counter-attacked by others!

Ju Shou was really not incompetent,

but ever since he met Gu Yi, he hadn't won a single time.

Whether it was the desire to win at work,

or to protect the interests of the Jizhou aristocratic families,

the desire in Ju Shou's heart to defeat Gu Yi had already reached an unprecedented extreme,

to the point of being completely insane!
