The Era of Generals

Chapter 579   Ups and downs of loyalty

"Everyone is here."

Chen Ze raised his chin, signaling to Chen Ming, who was the last one, to close the door.

Immediately, he glanced around the crowd, and said with a wry smile: "Before explaining the next task, there is one thing I have to explain to you in advance."

"Task?"

Meng Yang immediately regained his energy when he heard it, and even lost interest in listening to what Chen Ze said that needs to be explained in advance.

God knows how much he doesn't want to stay in the city lord's mansion anymore, as soon as he heard that there was a mission, he immediately acted as if he wanted to leave.

But other people are not as impatient as Meng Yang, and people like Chen Ming who are better at observing words and expressions can see that Chen Ze's complexion is not so good-looking.

"Son, what's the matter?"

Chen Ming and Gu Qingfeng looked at each other, and he still asked the question.

"You...do you still remember what happened five years ago?"

Chen Ze rubbed his brows and spoke slowly.

As soon as these words came out, the air on the spot seemed to freeze.

five years ago?

How could they not remember!

Visible to the naked eye, Meng Yang's eyes suddenly turned red, and he was as calm as Gu Qingfeng. He was breathing heavily, and his iron fists were covered with blue veins.

"Brother, why did you mention what you did five years ago for no reason?"

Meng Yang suppressed his anger and asked word by word.

"Five years ago, you experienced a bloody battle. More than 3,000 brothers died in the battle, and only 500 of you were left. The loss is not insignificant."

Chen Ze took a light breath and said slowly.

He tried his best to start with the scenes that Meng Yang and others had experienced, so that they could improve their psychological endurance.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Meng Yang is short-tempered, but at this moment he doesn't even yell "big brother", and directly replaces it with the word "you". This has not happened for a long time after he recognized Chen Ze as his big brother.

What's more intuitive is that Chen Ze immediately saw that Meng Yang directly lost five points in his system loyalty.

It's been a long time since I've seen something that loses loyalty?

At this moment, the loyalty of the few people in this room has already reached the upper limit of one hundred. Chen Ze believes that if there is no such upper limit, Meng Yang and the others probably have two or three hundred, and he would not be surprised.

However, this time one drop was five points.

It is conceivable that what happened five years ago had a great impact on Meng Yang.

Although the others were not as excited as Meng Yang to the point of losing their loyalty, they were also puzzled when they looked at Chen Ze.

Having been with Chen Ze for so long, they believed that this young master was not a random person. Since he mentioned what happened five years ago, he must have his reasons.

"What I want to say is..."

Chen Ze shook his head silently, and after a while he said, "Back then you were able to get out of the Bailie Empire because someone was helping you secretly, and you actually know that person in the dark."

"Is there someone to help?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but Meng Yang said angrily: "Impossible!"

He said decisively: "At that time, our brothers fought to the death to finally fight our way out. Who is secretly helping us?"

"Brother Meng, please stay safe and don't be impatient."

Chen Ze looked at him, and threw out another bombshell: "In that battle back then, not only you survived, but also those... more than 2,000 brothers who you thought had died in the Bailie Empire!"

"They are still alive now!"

boom!

A few simple words, but it was tantamount to a loud bang in everyone's minds, which made everyone unable to recover.

"Big... big brother?"

Meng Yang looked at Chen Ze with trembling lips, opened his mouth several times, and finally spoke: "What you said...is it true?"

According to his temper, when faced with something that he would not believe, his first reaction would have been to yell that this is impossible, but if the person who said this was someone he is not familiar with, even he would He directly punched the opponent's face with a fist.

But... the person who said this was Chen Ze.

Not only that, what Chen Ze said was that even though he knew it was impossible, every time he dreamed back at midnight, he hoped that those brothers really did not die and were still alive in this world.

Therefore, after trembling for a while, what he asked was a question full of hope.

"it is true."

Chen Ze nodded. Seeing that everyone was still calm, he would explain everything that happened after he entered the main courtyard of Mr. Hua to everyone in detail, even if he didn't want to be a secret anymore.

It took half an hour to say this, during which no one spoke.

When Chen Ze finished speaking, he looked around, but still no one spoke.

"This should be true."

He added: "It doesn't matter how much you hate Hua Lao, but it is undeniable that you are also very clear about Hua Lao's character, do you think he is the kind of person who would lie about his brother's life? "

"snort!"

Meng Yang snorted coldly, and said stubbornly: "I knew it before, but I don't know it now!"

These words proved from the side, even Meng Yang, who hated Hua Lao to the bone, had to admit that Hua Lao would not be that kind of person.

Chen Ze shook his head and said, "The reason why I explained to you in advance is to make you prepare first, because our task this time is..."

"Go to Fengqi Province and rescue those brothers who have been imprisoned for five years!"

He said these words firmly, and the momentum was magnificent for a while.

As a result, Chen Ze saw that the loyalty number in the column belonging to Meng Yang jumped wildly again in the system, and in just an instant, the lost five points of loyalty were filled up.

"So, what do you guys think?"

Chen Ze smiled wryly and asked everyone.

"of course!"

Meng Yang slammed his fist on the table, causing the items on the table to ping-pong. His eyes were about to burst and he said, "That damned Yan Haomiao dared to be so cheap. I knew that the Nantes Province at that time shouldn't let him go!" pass him!"

After a pause, Xu thought that he did not let Yan Haomiao go, and then gritted his teeth and said, "He shouldn't die so easily, he should have a taste of what life is like death!"

"Brother, just tell me, when are we leaving?"

Thinking that his brother was still in the hands of the Bailie Empire, life would be worse than death, Meng Yang was so angry that his hair stood on end, he wished he could fly to Fengqi Xing Province and kill them indiscriminately.

"It's not in a hurry."

Chen Ze waved his hands to calm Meng Yang's emotions, and continued: "Since I told you this matter, I will naturally do it, but I have waited for five years, and this time I finally have an opportunity, so naturally I can't waste it , so it must be fully deployed.”

Everyone nodded.

That's right, since the Bailie Empire still needs to use the lives of these brothers to threaten Hua Lao, from another perspective, they are still safe.

If you are in a hurry now, not only will you not be able to save people, but people like yourself will have to fall into it. This is a gain and a loss.
