Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 79 part 2

Chapter 79 Who is a cut above (2)

Although, the five thousand imperial guards were under his command, but obeying a command didn’t mean throwing their life for him. He had to make them able to sacrifice their life for him!

Regardless of whether one was an ordinary soldier or a general, who didn’t want to have a good future? And, the person that could make them sacrifice their lives for must be someone who has the ability to give them a bright future. This kind of person was someone Lin Qing had to become now.

One hundred silver liang was just a way that Lin Qing used to buy people’s heart. However, his ultimate trump card was himself. If he could return to the capital alive, then he can give them more than so much.

This was understood by the five thousand imperial guards who followed him, but before Lin Qing gave a promise no one dared to make a rash assertion. However, soon they understood that this high-ranked and powerful Jiu Qiansui really did this.

The next morning, fifty thousand men were ready at the city gate and waited for the commander-in-chief who would lead them to go into battle and achieve goals. These men belonged to Situ Yuanxiao.

Situ Yuanxiao rode his horse slowly to them. The fifty thousand men stood in a neat formation in front of him and had a great military countenance. Their pair of eyes looked at him with reverence.

Seeing these fifty thousand men, Situ Yuanxiao felt fervor in his heart. A heroic spirit emerged in his heart. He couldn’t help but speak out, “Are soldiers willing to follow me into the battlefield to attack the enemy, protect the territory of my Great Liang and shed blood for my citizens?”

“We are willing to follow Your Highness into the battlefield! Mighty!”

The soldiers promised loudly and their state of mind was impassioned.

At the same time that heroic spirit was raising in Situ Yuanxiao’s heart, he couldn’t help himself from riding a horse and circled once around Lin Qing’s carriage. The demonstration of military prestige was obvious.

The atmosphere at Lin Qing’s side seemed to have congealed. A breath seemed to be stuck in everyone’s chest. After all, the oppression that Situ Yuanxiao brought wasn’t only targeted at Lin Qing. Instead, it was to all the people in Lin Qing’s camp.

Everyone was silent, but they were watching secretly all the movements on Lin Qing’s side. After all, this Jiu Qiansui wasn’t someone who would submit to humiliation in silence. Even if the person provoking him is a prince, it would be inexcusable if he didn’t give him (SY) some reaction.

Everyone only saw that Zhao Zimu got out of the Lin Qing’s carriage and then walked to the five thousand imperial guards of the Forbidden City.

Situ Yuanxiao’s eyes dimmed. Originally, his impression of this person was of an arrogant person who had seduced Situ Ningan. Then, it had become Lin Qing’s running dog who didn’t have any good intention. Finally, it became Lin Qing’s subject of the bed. Now he wanted to see what abilities this subject of the bed has to be able to go against him.

Zhao Zimu walked to Zhang Xin. Zhang Xin hurriedly curtsied to her and then respectfully waited for her instructions. For some reason, Zhang Xin suddenly recalled yesterday’s implied warning glance. He quivered and his expression immediately became more respectful.

Now, the atmosphere between Jiu Qiansui and fifth prince was full of gunpowder. Zhang Xin was even more worried that in a moment of carelessness, he would become the cannon fodder accidentally. So, he was very nervous.

After Zhao Zimu glanced once at him, she stood beside him, causing Zhang Xin’s body to become even more stiff and he didn’t know what she was going to do.

Five thousand pair of inquiring eyes looked at the cold and out of this earth person. They wanted to know what this official of Lord Qiansui wanted to do.

The cold and handsome person spoke slowly, but the voice was clear and entered everyone’s ears, “This is a promise. All soldiers who are going to the battlefield to kill the enemy and do a meritorious service, will be rewarded! If you pass away, reward! Those who are injured and have to retreat, reward! Also, when the goal is accomplished, how can Qiansui not give you a chance? Sirs, now it is the time to make contributions! If you are willing to obey Qiansui and willing to sacrifice your life, Qiansui is also willing to give everyone a bright future!”

The cold, resounding and powerful voice reached everyone’s ears. All the soldiers were somewhat overwhelmed. Was Lord Qiansui issuing a promise and giving them a chance to become famous and establish their career?

Everyone’s breathing became urgent. Why did they become a soldier? Was it only to go into battle and kill the enemy? Wrong! They did it for achieve goals and a career!

However, killing the enemy on the battlefield was often not the same as making a meritorious deed. As the saying goes, one achievement of a general would cost ten thousand bones. They are soldiers. No matter how much effort they put out, usually, it was to let those leading the army accomplish the fame of being wise and they could only silently accept the rewards that had been left by those high-raked officials. Many people couldn’t obtain the return that they deserved. So much that sometimes, they even died in vain or silently spent the rest of their days with the body that had sustained countless of injuries.

Were they willing to accept that? Naturally, they were not willing! Now someone was telling them plainly that everything that they do would be rewarded!

They didn’t dare to believe it. Was this true? Even Zhang Xin looked at Zhao Zimu with eager and longing eyes. Everyone was longing for an answer.

“Orders are on line. When did Lord Qiansui went back on his words?” Zhao Zimu looked at all the soldiers who were breathing heavily and then said with a solemn face, “Are you willing to serve him with your life?!”

All the heavy-breathing soldiers no longer hesitated. They immediately knelt on one knee. With a deafening voice, they said, “Willing to serve Lord Qiansui with our life!”

The five thousand impassioned and excited voices even formed a wave in the air, blowing their strong desire on everyone; because they knew that the noble person in the carriage could fulfill his promise to them!

Situ Yuanxiao made all soldiers work hard while Lin Qing made the soldiers fight for their future. If they could choose, who would they be more willing to work for?

The result was self-evident. It was just that the answer was only in everyone’s heart. Even the fifty thousand men of Situ Yuanxiao looked at the group on the other side with jealousy in their eyes.

The heart of the five thousand imperial guards of the Forbidden City had been successfully won over by Lin Qing and since then, he had the footing to stand on the frontier.
