Chapter 767 Defeat
Chapter 767 Defeat
"What do you know? Chu Feng is my cousin, the grandson of the Ye family. Who are you to criticize him?" Ye Mei Er glared at him fiercely.
The security guard immediately shrunk his neck and avoided eye contact, scared out of his wits.
"Yes, yes, Miss Ye, you are right."
"But I still think that he lacks ambition and talent. He will never achieve anything significant in his life."
"Ugh!"
Just as the security guard was arrogantly criticizing Chu Feng, a military car with a military license plate stopped at the entrance of the Ye family villa.
Chen Fengxing, dressed in military uniform, saluted Chu Feng respectfully and opened the car door for him.
With the Colonel rank insignia of two bars and three stars on his shoulder, shining brightly, it dazzled the security guard's eyes.
The security guard's voice abruptly stopped, and he gasped in disbelief, rubbing his eyes. "Colonel?"
"This distinguished Colonel is actually driving for him. What... what's going on?"
It should be noted that even the current head of the Ye family, Ye Rongcheng, cannot compare to the influence of a Colonel.
And this Colonel was showing the utmost respect to Chu Feng, as if he were his subordinate.
Even a fool could understand that Chu Feng's identity was extraordinary!
The security guard panicked, his legs trembling, almost wetting himself in fear. "It's over; it's over. Did he hear what I said earlier?"
"Hmph, you deserve this for looking down on others. This is your retribution!" Ye Mei Er glared at the security guard with anger, her small face filled with excitement and ecstasy.
Resting her chin on her hand, her big eyes were filled with excitement and longing.
"Feng, I know you are definitely not an ordinary person. The Ye family will regret their actions today."
"I'll wait for that day to come."
In the car, Chen Fengxing asked while driving, "Dragon Lord, how was your visit this time?"
"It was just average," Chu Feng responded lightly, not elaborating further.
He needed to let go of matters concerning the Ye family. His focus now was to shift entirely to the national war against Xi Xia.
"These days, I asked you to investigate the internal corruption within Xi Ye. Any progress?"
"Yes, we have dealt with many troublemakers, but they are all subordinates. The real deals have yet to show themselves." This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"For example, there is Lord Ping Xi, Wu Zhenguo." Chu Feng looked through the information handed to him by Chen Fengxing, his eyes gleaming with determination.
To defend against external threats, one must first ensure internal stability. This was the strategy he had formulated!
Currently, within the borders of Xi Ye, there were three hundred thousand soldiers, three times more than Xi Xia, yet they were still retreating, unable to put up any resistance.
While the army certainly had its share of responsibility, the root cause of their continuous defeats lay in the chaotic political situation under Xi Ye. Various factions were mixed together, each plotting their own schemes.
A scattered group, each with their own hidden agenda, lacking any cohesion. How could they not be defeated?
The first thing Chu Feng needed to do was completely eradicate these threats!
Lord Ping Xi, Wu Zhenguo, controlled the majority of Xi Ye's resources and held power in the court, yet did nothing. He was undoubtedly the biggest threat to Xi Ye!
Chu Feng rubbed his temples and asked, "By the way, I heard that Lord Ping Xi's son went to the frontlines three days ago to confront the enemy. How is the situation?"
"Well..." Chen Fengxing hesitated.
Chu Feng noticed something unusual and ordered coldly, "Tell me the truth; do not hide anything."
"Yes, our army suffered a major defeat!" Chen Fengxing gritted his teeth, filled with frustration and pain. "Due to reckless command and a lack of military understanding, over half of our hundred thousand soldiers were killed or injured. Thirty thousand soldiers died directly on the battlefield, their bodies obliterated."
Chu Feng felt a buzzing in his head and instinctively clenched his fist.
