2"Tell the soldiers to be prepared. This time, we can't do what we did last time. It will be a disgrace to the Western Army! This time, we must revitalize the prestige of the Western Army! " Xue Kai said.    

    

"Yes!" The surrounding military officers quickly responded.    

    

Among these people, there were some who had followed Ge Rui to attack the Mei County. When they heard Xue Kai's words, they all felt a little embarrassed. Last time... If it wasn't for Ge Rui's sudden death, this team would have lost their leader. They might not have lost, so these people were not convinced.    

    

"General, don't worry. This time, we must kill that Chou!"    

    

"Yes, kill him and avenge our brothers!"    

    

"Let those scumbags know how powerful our Western Army is!"    

    

Those generals started clamoring, although they were defeated last time. However, there was a reason. It was not that they were weaker than others. Therefore, they did not feel that the other party was very powerful. This time, they were not afraid at all.    

    

"Alright, I know your determination. This time, no matter what, we must pacify this uprising!" Xue Kai said to his subordinates.    

    

"Yes!"    

    

The next day, the Western Army personally led fifty thousand elite soldiers to Mei County to suppress Leader Qiu. In an instant, the Mei County was filled with clouds of war, and there was a possibility of a great war breaking out at any time.    

    

"Has the leader not woken up yet?"    

    

Outside the City Lord's Mansion in Mei County, a middle-aged man in armor said to a servant.    

    

Although Leader Qiu had already conquered several cities, however... He still regarded the Mei County as his base camp, and he usually lived in the Mei County. This was mainly because he had occupied this county for the longest time. Therefore, the arrangement this time was the most appropriate. All kinds of defensive measures were better than the other towns.    

    

Moreover, the county office here was also more luxurious than the other cities. To Leader Qiu, who was used to living a good life, this was extremely important. Of course, there was another reason that the others didn't know, and that was... Leader Qiu believed that this Mei County was his blessed land, and that he was at a disadvantage. The fact that he was able to defeat the army of the Imperial Court had given him the current situation. Therefore, he didn't want to leave this blessed land.    

    

At this time, the sky had already turned bright. However, Leader Qiu hadn't appeared yet, so it was estimated that he hadn't woken up yet. The servants serving Leader Qiu had gotten used to this master, so they got up again when it was close to noon.    

    

Thus, after hearing the person's question, the person immediately said, "Not yet. I reckon it will take another four hours to get up."    

    

"This is really outrageous, Leader Qiu is really going too far!" The armored man was clearly very dissatisfied with Leader Qiu's actions.    

    

"General Su, watch your words!" At this moment, a middle-aged man walked over. He looked at the armored man with a strange expression and said, "Is Leader Qiu someone you can talk about behind your back?"    

    

"Humph, if it wasn't for you petty people flattering the leader all day long, how could Leader Qiu become like this?" The middle-aged man in armor, the General Su that the man spoke of. Obviously, he wasn't afraid of the man. Instead, he spoke sternly to the man.    

    

It was these bunch of imps who got to the top by bootlicking. They didn't have any real ability. They spent all day thinking about how to please Leader Qiu and find all kinds of rare treasures for him. Giving all kinds of beautiful women to Leader Qiu had made him, who had previously been full of ambition, become like this, with no desire to advance.    

    

When the man heard General Su's words, his face was instantly filled with embarrassment and anger. He pointed at General Su and said with a sharp voice, "Su Pei, don't slander me! What was wrong with Leader Qiu now? We are also loyal to Leader Qiu. Don't ruin our reputation here!"    

    

"You are the only ones with a reputation, a bunch of villains!" General Su Pei said with a look of contempt. Then, he turned to the servant and said, "When Leader Qiu wakes up, you told me that I have something to report."    

    

After saying that, General Su ignored the person and turned around to leave.    

    

Su Pei's actions once again angered that person. He stared at Su Pei with hatred and watched him leave.    

    

In fact, these people did not rely on their contributions on the battlefield. The ones who had risen to this position had only said what Leader Qiu liked to hear. They had done what he liked, and that was why they had gained his appreciation, which was why they had come to this position today.    

    

However, they did not think that they were petty. However... They also knew that there were some people here who normally looked down on them... Especially this Su Pei, because he had been following Leader Qiu for a long time. He had also made quite a few contributions on the battlefield, and he didn't even put these people in his eyes. The conflict between the two sides was still very sharp.    

    

Four hours later, Leader Qiu finally yawned. Under the care of his two concubines, he put on his clothes. He walked out of the room with a sleepy look on his face. At first glance, he had stayed up all night yesterday. As for why he stayed up all night... He would know when he looked at his two concubines on the bed.    

    

That servant didn't have the time to tell Leader Qiu about the matter that Su Pei had something to report. The person who had a conflict with Su Pei appeared in front of Leader Qiu. He knew about the approximate time that Leader Qiu would wake up every day.    

    

"The leader has woken up? He doesn't want to sleep for a while longer?" The man asked with a concerned expression.    

    

"No, did anything happen?" Leader Qiu asked casually as he walked.    

    

In fact, he did not think that anything would happen recently. Many of the surrounding counties had already been taken down, and those that had not been taken down were also busy reinforcing their defenses. It was impossible for them to fight back against him.    

    

"Chief, nothing happened." That person said, "However, I heard some bad things earlier. I don't know if I should say it or not."    

    

Seeing the hesitation on his subordinate's face, Leader Qiu said unhappily, "What is there that you can't say? Speak!" He hated that his servant was hiding something from him. If that was the case, he would feel unsafe.    

    

"Yes." The man said with a terrified expression. Leader Qiu was very satisfied with his expression. His position could only be secured if his subordinates had always been in awe of him.    

    

"Recently, I heard some people slandering you behind your back, saying that you don't want to advance, that you are muddle-headed, and that you only know how to covet pleasure. You don't have the slightest ambition, and..."    

    

"Enough! It's simply a bunch of nonsense!" Leader Qiu interrupted him with a gloomy face, "Who exactly said that?!"    

    

Obviously, Leader Qiu was very dissatisfied with such words. His body was emitting a murderous aura!
