Chapter 349: Military Power Is His Foundation!

Bai Wutong smiled. “With you around, I never will.”

...

After receiving an affirmative answer from Bai Wutong, Chu Tianbao finally felt relieved. He kissed the corner of her lips. “I love you.”

Bai Wutong’s heart trembled, and her eyes sparkled. “1 love you.”

Chu Tianbao set off that night. Bai Wutong looked in the direction he had disappeared in and felt a little lonely.

Qingfeng put a cloak on her and reminded her, “Madam, it’s time to rest.”

Bai Wutong smiled and nodded. “Okay.”

For the sake of the child and to not let Chu Tianbao worry, she should take good care of herself.

Apart from a small number of people, no one else knew about Chu Tianbao’s departure.

The disguised dark guard looked basically no different from Chu Tianbao.

The only difference was that from that day onwards, Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao had slept in separate tents. Moreover, their relationship seemed to have suddenly become cold.

Even Stinky felt that something was wrong when he went to look for Chu

Tianbao. He cried and went to look for Bai Wutong, saying that his father didn’t like him anymore.

Bai Wutong comforted Stinky that his father was only sick and receiving treatment, which was why he was like this.

Everyone instantly thought of some nonsensical things and brushed this matter off.

However, they would also ask Wen Renhua and Gu Zhongxun from time to time when Chu Tianbao would recover from his illness. If he couldn’t, what would happen to Madam Bai and the unborn child?

Wen Renhua cooperated with Bai Wutong and said a lot of things that no one understood. In the end, he concluded that they should not disturb Master Chu and let nature take its course.

Everyone could only pray in their hearts that Master Chu would recover soon.

Although everyone was very worried, Bai Wutong did not seem to be affected. She temporarily felt relieved and focused on exploring the land and building a house.

They had to hurry up and explore the land so that they could gain something from this autumn harvest.

Everyone worked together and expanded a lot of land. Everyone was fighting for a beautiful future.

Before building the city, they had to mine stone, burn bricks, gather wood, refine steel bars, and dig out cement.

Due to the heavy workload, the labor force was severely insufficient. After all, the majority of the people in the team were old and young.

Even if women were in charge of exploring the land and men were in charge of building houses, there was still a shortage of manpower.

It was almost the rainy season. At that time, their progress would only be slower.

Everyone wanted to have their own place to stay as soon as possible, so Bai Wutong looked at Baye City, which had 80,000 elite soldiers.

Now that there was no war to fight, it was not a good idea to feed these guys for nothing like this.

When they planted their food, the army would definitely have designs on them agam.

At that time, they really could not watch these people starve to death as well.

Moreover, when they saw that their lives were better, these soldiers would definitely feel unhappy. At that time, there would be a lot of difficult things to deal with.

Even if Bai Wutong really did not want to deal with Gu Chilie, she had to get You Huaijie to bring him along to work hard.

After receiving Bai Wutong’s instructions, You Huaijie led his men to Baye City.

The soldiers of Baye City had almost finished all the tapioca. The millet, cow, sheep, and milk that You Huaijie had promised to buy from the Syrians had yet to be delivered.

When Gu Chilie saw You Huaijie appear, he immediately rushed down angrily and questioned, “Where’s the food?”

If You Huaijie didn’t come that day, he would have to look for him.

You Huaijie was grabbed by the collar, but he was still calm. “It’s at our place.”

Gu Chilie was immediately furious. He came up and was about to punch You Huaijie. ‘My soldiers are starving, but you actually brought food to your place. What are your intentions!’

You Huaijie raised his eyebrows. ‘Why can’t I deal with the food I bought myself? Your food hasn’t been transported by the Imperial Court yet.”

“Marshal Gu has so many people. The southern frontier is rich in resources, how can you not find food yourselves?’

Look, should this be what someone is saying?

If they could find enough food, there was no need for him to waste his breath!

Gu Chilie’s wrath was about to break through the sky, but his hand was tightly restrained by You Huaijie and he could not move at all.

In an instant, Gu Chilie was stunned.

How could an official have the power to restrain him!

It was very likely that this man was pretending to be the governor of the Southern Frontier.

Thinking of how obedient he had been to Bai Wutong, Gu Chilie became even more suspicious.

Not only did he suspect You Huaijie, but he also suspected Chu Tianbao.

Since someone could pretend to be You Huaijie, how could one not pretend to be Chu Tianbao?

And Chu Tianbao’s amnesia was actually an act from the beginning.

The more he thought about it, the brighter Gu Chilie’s eyes lit up, as if he had already confirmed his guess.

However, he did not have any evidence. He could only stabilize You Huaijie first and go along with his words. ‘Then what do you want us to do before you’re willing to give us food?”

Bai Wutong had indeed wanted to transport the food directly to Baye City for the soldiers, but Gu Chilie thought too highly of himself and would not listen to their arrangements at all. Thus, she could only transport the food to their place so that Gu Chilie would listen to her and let the soldiers take the initiative to work.

You Huaijie said calmly, “If you want to eat, you have to work.”

Gu Chilie was stunned and lowered his eyes. “My soldiers are used for war, not for you to order around like slaves! ”

As soon as he said that, the soldiers behind him cheered for Gu Chilie.

It had to be said that Gu Chilie was good at nothing except for one thing. He was really good at brainwashing the soldiers to work for him.

You Huaijie did not waste his breath. “I’m the governor of the southern frontier. I respect Marshal Gu, so I came to inform you. If Marshal Gu insists on going against my orders, it is equivalent to going against the current emperor’s Holy Decree!’

‘When the news gets back to the palace and the emperor finds out that Marshal Gu wants to lead the soldiers and do nothing while waiting for the military pay, how will he deal with it? Marshal Gu, have you thought about it?”

“At that time, I’m afraid you still have to listen to my orders and work obediently.”

“In all the dynasties, when there was no need to fight a war, the soldiers could only be discharged to farm in the countryside.”

‘Will the Gu family army that Marshal Gu cares about still exist?”

“After all, which emperor would want to raise an idle person?”

“Actually, to me, after the army is discharged, the fewer people I have to care about, the less pressure I have. We can live well just by relying on our own farming and building houses.”

“Marshal Gu might even be able to live well. When you return to the Imperial City and become the supreme idle marshal, everyone will respect you and praise you for having contributed so much to the Ling Kingdom. You can finally enjoy your old age.”

If he really returned to the Imperial City to be an idle marshal without military power, even a capital official would probably be able to step on his head in the end.

How could Gu Chilie, who was sought after by 10,000 people in the army , tolerate such a situation?

He could not tolerate it. Military power was his foundation!

Gu Chilie’s eyes burned with flames. He gritted his teeth tightly, wishing he could kill You Huaijie quickly.

At the same time, an ambition to occupy the southern frontier and establish himself as a king like Emperor Linghui back then rose in his heart!

Since he could do it, why couldn’t he?
