Chapter 887: Chapter 887: Help the Commander Protect the Commander Seal? Have So Sha, Why Don’t You? Chapter 887: Chapter 887: Help the Commander Protect the Commander Seal? Have So Sha, Why Don’t You? “How dare you! Take one more step and don’t bla Mr. Gu for disregarding compassion and justice…you’ve brought this upon yourselves…”
At this point in ti, Gu Changsheng was still speaking in an archaic manner, confusing the minds of Commander Hu’s subordinates!
Gu Changsheng swiftly pulled out a writing brush from within his robe and rapidly traced in the void. A defensive formation materialized and hindered the advance.
Simultaneously, hundreds of Red Tiger Guards, amassed at the first periter of the outer defense, sward into action at once.
Though the second defensive layer, located a re thirty feet from the Command Tent, did not move, Guo Li, Yu Qiang, and several core mbers of the Mortal Alliance charged towards this area.
Only Yamada Eiko, Qiu Wan, Ren Xueying, and Qing Ruolan—the four won—remained close, guarding the entrance of the Command Tent without budging an inch.
For soone like Ye Fan, taking out these people would be no more than a flick of his fingers!
On one hand, Ye Fan was supposed to administer the antidote to Gu Tang, while on the other, his temporary inaction was deliberate. He wanted to draw out all the scheming clowns of the Red Tiger Domain and capture them in one fell swoop!
…
At this mont, when a great battle was about to erupt here, elsewhere, in the camp of Vice Commander Zhou, a small distance away, four figures were gathering and conspiring.
They were none other than Vice Commander Zhou and his three most trusted Division Commanders.
These four n were all operatives that Prince Jin had placed within the Red Tiger Army.
“Didn’t expect Ye Fan to be alive, let alone that he’d co to the Red Tiger Army Camp. Now this is troubleso.”
Speaking of this matter, Vice Commander Zhou’s brows furrowed with worry.
Though he had no connection with the Ti Poison that afflicted Gu Tang, seeing Gu Tang’s condition deteriorate by the day pleased Vice Commander Zhou imnsely.
He was just waiting for the day Gu Tang died so that he could take control of the Red Tiger Domain, report it, and receive rewards and recognition from Prince Jin.
He had just received orders from Prince Jin’s Mansion today, instructing him to act imdiately: to seize control of the military power and dominate the entire Red Tiger Domain as swiftly as possible.
However, before he could make his move, news ca from the Command Tent that Gu Changsheng had invited Ye Fan to cure Gu Tang’s poisoning.
Ye Fan, though Vice Commander Zhou had never t him, was a na that resonated like thunder. It was said that even Prince Jin had suffered repeated setbacks at Ye Fan’s hands. This ti Ye Fan’s feigned death, taking on the guise of Fan Ye in the Capital, had stirred up a storm. Many of Prince Jin’s Direct Lineage Forces, even Martial Saint Realm experts, had fallen to Ye Fan!
These Military Martial figures were rely at the Martial Emperor Realm and certainly no match for Ye Fan in a solo fight.
But orders from Prince Jin had to be obeyed!
What gave Vice Commander Zhou so confidence, however, was that these Martial Arts Experts among the military were different from those scattered Martial Arts experts.
They had practiced many combined and coordinated Formation techniques, and killing a Martial Saint Expert was not impossible!
“Reporting to the Vice Commander, fighting has broken out at the Command Tent.”
“Vice Commander Hu is leading five hundred Bodyguards to enter the Command Tent and has been stopped by Young Marshal Gu Changsheng. They are arguing fiercely and have begun to fight…”
“Good killing!”
Upon hearing this, Vice Commander Zhou’s spirits were uplifted, and his eyes shone, “Since the Royal Family’s n have already made their move and have engaged Gu Changsheng, our best mont to take action has naturally arrived.”
“Imdiately summon our n, along with my Bodyguards, and flatten the Command Tent!”
“Heh heh, even if we can’t take advantage of the chaos to kill Ye Fan this ti, as long as we can eliminate Gu Tang, drive away Gu Changsheng, and seize the Red Tiger Domain’s Commander Seal and military power, it will be an imnse credit to us!”
Soon, all the Division Commanders, Chiliarchs, and even Centurions under Prince Jin’s command—a few hundred in total—had arrived. Together with the Bodyguards they had instigated and bribed, a force totaling two to three thousand quickly assembled.
Then, under the command of Vice Commander Zhou, they advanced en masse towards Gu Tang’s Command Tent…
…
Half an hour had passed, and the battle outside Gu Tang’s command tent had just concluded.
With the assistance of Martial Alliance backbone like Guo Li, Yu Qiang, Songyang, Wang Fugui, and others, the trusted aides brought by Vice Commander Hu were no match.
After the battle, the forces loyal to the royal family were either killed on the spot or severely wounded and captured.
Now that the battlefield had been cleaned up, all prisoners were bound with fine steel chains, gathered together, and prepared to be sent first to the Military Prison for custody, to be dealt with later.
It was at this ti that another larger troop hurried from a distance, quickly approaching.
“Gu Changsheng, why have you tied up Vice Commander Hu? The Commander is still breathing; are you starting an insurrection from within?”
The newcors were Prince Jin’s troops, led by Vice Commander Zhou, who were indignant and imdiately pointed the finger at Gu Changsheng.
Mid-sentence, his gaze shifted, scanning over Guo Li, Yu Qiang, and the other Martial Alliance experts, his expression changing again, “These faces are all unfamiliar, who exactly are they?”
“Gu Changsheng, do you still acknowledge that this is the Red Tiger Army Camp?”
“According to the Red Tiger Army’s rules, any idle personnel are strictly forbidden from entering the camp. As the Young Marshal, in your power seizure, you collude with outside forces to detain the Commander, wield arms in the camp against Commander Hu, are you trying to seize the command by force, blatantly rebelling?”
This accusation was like wanting to impose a charge, and there would be no lack of reasons.
The face-off was full-blown, and Vice Commander Zhou naturally would not give Gu Changsheng any more ti to react.
As soon as the words fell, his right hand swung swiftly, “Imdiately surround this place, no one is permitted to leave. Commander Hu is not yet dead, and Gu Changsheng dares to rebel; I shall never agree to this.”
At his command, nearly three thousand soldiers from Prince Jin’s forces were fully mobilized, splitting into two groups and surrounding the entire command tent.
“Gu Changsheng, will you still resist obstinately?”
Seeing that he had control of the situation, Vice Commander Zhou’s face showed a flush of success. He pointed at Gu Changsheng, and shouted harshly, “With here, I vow to protect the Commander!”
“Hand over the Commander Seal imdiately, for to safeguard temporarily. Should you dare delay further, do not bla for ordering your imdiate capture and imprisonnt in the Military Prison!”
“Hand over the Commander Seal, protect the Commander!”
“Hand over the Commander Seal, protect the Commander…”
Three thousand soldiers responded in unison, waving their arms and chanting, gradually tightening the encirclent and putting pressure on Gu Changsheng.
The sight caused a change in his complexion.
Although the Red Tiger Army numbered a million, the main force was distributed across the strongholds along the Northwest border.
Within this headquarter camp of the Red Tiger Army, there were also a hundred thousand iron troops, but the nearest division was still several miles away.
Even if he sent for the Commander Seal to call the troops now, it would take ti.
Judging by Vice Commander Zhou’s action, if the Commander Seal were not handed over imdiately, within ten breaths, he might order these three thousand soldiers to forcefully snatch it.
Facing an imminent battle, Guo Li, Yu Qiang, and dozens of Martial Alliance elites all surged behind Gu Changsheng, their aura turbulent, filled with a ready intent to kill.
However, to everyone’s surprise, just as a battle was about to break out, a cold, eerie voice suddenly ca from the command tent ten paces away, “The Red Tiger Army’s Commander Seal is on the table beside Mr. Ye.”
“If any of you wish to take the Commander Seal, co in if you dare…”
In an instant, thousands of gazes shifted in unison, all falling on Vice Commander Zhou’s face.
Ye Fan’s words clearly challenged his nerve.
Yet Vice Commander Zhou had already made his public statent, spoken so brilliantly and righteously.
Under these circumstances, if he, instead, refused to enter the tent and take the seal, even the three thousand soldiers that had followed him might disdain and scorn him…
