Chapter 163 Temptation or Deterrence
Fu Chenan smiled, and this time his smile was sincere: "Well said! I don't like to say those empty words either."

"My idea is simple: I will never return to Beijing."

"Your Majesty asks me to go back, but I won't."

"As for you, if you want to go back, just go back. I won't stop you, and I will definitely not do anything to you."

"But you can take away the soldiers you can take with you. Those who don't want to go with you...will join my Fu family army."

Fu Chenan spoke in a quiet voice and in a moderate tone, but after he finished speaking, the entire tent fell into deathly silence.

Peng Yuli tried hard to control the trembling in his voice: "You want to rebel?"

"No! I don't want to rebel." Fu Chenan shook his head.

He looked around at everyone and said slowly: "I just want to live."

The generals in the camp outside the capital were all stunned, but then they all understood.

Yes, the emperor would not be at ease if Fu Chenan stayed in the Fu family army.

But if Fu Chenan is recalled to the capital, and someone else can lead the Fu family army, is there any need for Fu Chenan to stay alive?

The emperor has wanted to kill Fu Chenan for more than a day or two...

The generals in the camp outside the capital looked at each other, not knowing how to start.

Or Peng Yuli: "Aren't you afraid that if you let us go, we will tell His Majesty about it?"

Fu Chenan glanced at Peng Yuli and suddenly laughed: "Hahahaha... What's the point of telling him when you go back today?"

"Who else can you send to defeat my Fu family army?"

"Which army can defeat the Fu family army?"

Peng Yuli seemed to have thought of something long ago: "The Ao family army was also able to take charge of its own affairs back then!"

Fu Chenan snorted contemptuously: "Ever since Ningyuan Hou died in battle, and Ningyuan Hou's son died in battle, is there anyone in Ningyuan Hou's mansion who can lead the troops?"

"If someone else leads the army, will the Ao family army still be the Ao family army? Will they still have that blood in their veins?"

"If a soldier is incompetent, the whole army will be incompetent!"

"Who has the ability to restore the Ao Family Army to its former glory?!"

"Besides, do you think that my Fu family army only has stab-proof soft armor and water bottles?"

"Look at what this is?" Fu Chenan took out two walkie-talkies.

The generals of the camp outside Beijing looked at the two black brick-like objects and said nothing.

They had seen the generals of the Fu family army using this thing from afar, but once they got close, these generals would put it away.

Fu Chenan pointed at the two walkie-talkies and explained: "These two things can allow two people within 20 miles to talk as if they were face to face!"

"If I send a scout to monitor from twenty miles away, he only needs to use this to tell me what the situation is at any time twenty miles away!"

After that, Fu Chenan picked up one of them and shouted into his mouth: "No. 2 sentry, No. 2 sentry, looking at the situation outside the city wall at the northwest corner?"

A man's voice soon came from the intercom: "General, General, everything is normal on the outer wall of the northwest corner. Everything is normal."

Fu Chenan put down the walkie-talkie and looked silently at the generals in the camp outside Beijing.

The generals were shocked!
The scouts of an army are the most valuable because they must not only have strong observation, analytical and judgment skills, and quick reactions, but also fast speed and endurance.

Because you often have to get close to the enemy, you need to have a high ability to escape when you encounter danger. If you can't escape, you will die.

Therefore, the loss of scouts was particularly painful.

With this, it's different: scouts don't need to shuttle back and forth to pass on information. They just need to find a good place to ambush and use this thing to transmit messages, so they can monitor for a long time...

Fu Chenan pointed at the generals of the Fu family army in the tent: "As long as the war begins, each general will be equipped with a..."

The generals in the camp outside Beijing were shocked again!
"Our medicines are all Western medicines, so we can minimize the possibility of wounds festering and high fever..." The generals in the camp outside Beijing suddenly realized: No wonder their wounded soldiers recovered so quickly - it turns out they have Western medicines!

They have telescopes, soft armor, water bottles, compressed biscuits, walkie-talkies, Western medicine... and they work together as one when fighting the enemy!

Where else in the entire Daliang Dynasty could you find a team like this?!

If we go against an army like this, how can we have a chance of winning?
This is a temptation, but also a deterrent!

Peng Yuli swallowed hard: "But our family is still in the capital..."

Fu Chenan laughed: "So I said: I will let you leave."

"But after you leave today, you will definitely betray my Fu family army when the emperor asks you about it. Therefore, if my Fu family army enters the capital again in the future, you and your family will have no way to survive!"

This is a naked threat.

Upon hearing this, the generals in the camp outside the capital were all caught in a dilemma.

go back?

The Daliang Dynasty was rotten to the core. Which army could compare to the Fu Family Army?

If the Fu family army wants, they can fight back at any time. By then, the imperial court will no longer exist, and their high positions and generous salaries will naturally be nothing but illusions.

not going back?
It is very difficult for their family to survive now!

After thinking about it, Peng Yuli couldn't help but remind Fu Chenan: "The Seventh Prince admires General Fu very much. The general was once the Seventh Prince's master. Doesn't he care about this disciple anymore?"

Fu Chenan sneered: "I understand his feelings towards me. Don't you understand?"

Peng Yuli could no longer find any reason to persuade him.

Fortunately, Fu Chenan did not force them to make a decision immediately. He stood up and said, "I understand that you are in a difficult situation right now. You can discuss it first and give me an answer tomorrow morning."

"If you want to leave, you can leave anytime."

"You soldiers, take back as much as you can."

After Fu Chenan left, the generals of the Fu family army also left, leaving their tents to the generals in the camp outside the capital.

The generals in the camp outside Beijing looked at each other in confusion: What should we do?
I always feel like it's all death...

In another tent, the generals of the Fu family army looked at Fu Chenan: "General Fu, will this work?"

Fu Chenan bared his teeth and sneered: "Why not?"

"What if they really choose to return to Beijing?"

Fu Chenan picked up a walkie-talkie and shook it: "Did you forget? We have this."

The generals suddenly realized what was going on, looked at each other, and started laughing.

Early the next morning, the generals in the camp outside Beijing split into two factions. Three of them were worried about their families and decided to leave.

The other eight chose to stay.

The three who wanted to leave had soldiers close to them, and they persuaded more than thirty people to follow him back to Beijing.

The remaining 20,000-plus soldiers in the camp outside Beijing were all unwilling to go back!

When they learned that Fu Chenan was going to rebel, they were more excited than panicked!

The merit of following the dragon! Not everyone can come across this!

Moreover, the imperial court is now in a state of chaos, and the Fu family army has no rivals at all!

In addition to the various persuasions of the veterans, out of more than 20,000 soldiers, only three generals led more than 30 soldiers and were willing to go back...
