Chapter 5513 The Bitter Meat Scheme

"I see……"

Wan Renxue immediately felt relieved upon hearing this and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Naturally, Zhang Yifeng would not sit idly by and watch Jing Lei and his companions risk their lives to pave the way for his plan.

He is not the kind of person who likes to play with other people's lives.

Zhang Yifeng had already arranged for Xuanyuan Li and the other two to hide on the warship.

If the situation seems to be amiss, Xuanyuan Li and the other two will take action to bring Jing Lei and the others back.

With the strength of Xuanyuan Li and the other two, no unexpected situations would occur unless the Empire had been prepared and set up a tight net to wait for them.

In this way, Jing Lei controlled the warship and rushed towards the imperial capital.

Zhang Yifeng and others drove the warship and followed slowly behind, always maintaining a distance that could allow them to attack or bring people back.

Outside the imperial capital of the Tianyu Empire, layers of protective nets had already been opened around it.

An army of 100,000 men was urgently summoned back to carry out today's patrol work.

However, having lived a life of luxury for so many years, they were not in the mood to cheer up and just looked around casually.

Even most of the 100,000-strong army are enjoying themselves in the imperial capital at this moment.

Of course, the reason they were so lax in their guard was that the royal family did not tell them why they were urgently recalled.

At first, they were still very nervous after they rode back to the imperial capital at full speed.

Until the royal family issued an order, which was to let the soldiers who rushed back patrol around the imperial capital in batches day and night.

Seeing that the order was so simple, the soldiers who had been accustomed to a life of luxury and were responsible for suppressing the countries around the Tianyu Realm could not help but become disloyal.

On the surface, they looked like they were following orders, but in reality, all the generals above the rank of lieutenant general in the army had already fled to the city to enjoy themselves.

The ordinary soldiers who stayed behind saw this and felt resentful and were too lazy to patrol diligently.

A fleet of thousands of people was patrolling around the imperial capital at random.

A scout on the bow suddenly shouted excitedly, attracting the attention of the general on the warship.

"what happened!"

The imperial lieutenant stepped forward, pulled the scout away, and stared ahead intently.

At the farthest point of the imperial capital's border, they saw a warship approaching them at a very fast speed.

"Ok?"

The general's pupils trembled, and then he carefully observed the driver of the battleship.

"Sir Lieutenant General, that person seems to be General Ge Wen's disciple, General Jing Lei, who is known as the Thunder God in the army!"

The investigator who was pulled aside stood up, calmed himself down, observed carefully, and immediately saw the other party's true identity.

"What's going on? Why would General Jinglei rush over from outside the border of the imperial capital?"

"And judging from his appearance, he seems to be being chased by someone?"

The scout said with a bewildered look on his face.

From what he observed, he saw Thunder at the bow, who was now looking back from time to time with a look of extreme fear on his face.

I have to say that Jing Lei's disguise is really too exaggerated.

Anyone who knows him a little bit can tell whether his expression is real or fake at a glance.

Jing Lei is a man who fears nothing. Even when people from the royal family come before him, he won't even kneel down to receive his orders.

How could such a person be afraid of being chased by an unknown guy?

However, the soldiers on this warship were all transferred back from the countries guarding the surrounding areas of Tianyu Realm.

For those who were content with pleasure, they had long heard of the Thunder God, who had become famous for attacking other countries.

But they only knew Jing Lei's appearance and name, and knew nothing about his deeds.

"This... The general said that we should patrol and report to him immediately if we find anything wrong."

"But looking at General Jinglei's current appearance, it seems that he is being chased by someone."

"right now we……"

The general spoke hesitantly, with a look of struggle on his face.

After living a life of luxury for so many years, these soldiers had already lost their ambition as warriors, and instead devoted themselves to studying the petty intrigues of officialdom.

Seeing Jing Lei at this moment, he didn't think about anything else, but was struggling with whether he should offend his own general.

And think about whether after rescuing Jing Lei, the other party will remember his kindness and take good care of him in the imperial capital.

After all, there is a huge difference between their armies guarding other countries and the armies in the imperial capital that are always ready for war.

Not to mention anything else, just the attitude of the families in the imperial capital towards them is not that good.

Thoughts raced through this general's mind, but he finally made up his mind, a glimmer of greed in his eyes.

If he could save Jing Lei this time, he would definitely be able to integrate into the upper class circles of the imperial capital afterwards.

By then, he can also get rid of the identity of a mere general of the border defense army and make the leap to the dragon gate in one fell swoop!

With a gleam in his eyes, the lieutenant ordered decisively: "Go over there, open the protective net, and let General Jinglei in!"

The lieutenant shouted, and the warship started moving immediately, rushing towards the edge of the protective net.

The soldiers on the battleship are not fools. They naturally know how much benefit saving Jing Lei will bring to them.

On the warship not far away, Jing Lei was so immersed in the role that he didn't care about anything else and rushed towards the protective net.

On the contrary, the other people on the battleship looked nervous when they saw the imperial battleship inside the protective net approaching them.

Zhang Yifeng and others in the back also noticed the changes in the field at this moment.

Looking at the two warships getting closer and closer to the protective net, a solemn look flashed in his eyes.

Finally, Jing Lei drove the warship straight through the protective net with a gap and hovered in front of the warship where the lieutenant general was.

When the people around Jing Lei saw this, they finally put their minds at ease.

"General Jinglei, and all the generals, are you all okay?"

The lieutenant general rushed to the warship where Jing Lei was with his eyes shining.

When he saw that besides Jing Lei, there were several other generals of the Imperial Capital Guard on the warship, he could no longer suppress the smile on his face.

Although these generals are not as famous as General Jing Lei, they are all young talents responsible for guarding the imperial capital.

If you make friends with them based on this heart-throb, it will benefit them greatly.

"Well... let's stop talking nonsense for now, General. Have you seen the guys chasing us from behind?"

A friend of Jing Lei stepped forward, grabbed Jing Lei's shoulder as he was about to attack, and asked the lieutenant general in a deep voice.

The lieutenant general was stunned. He had been paying attention to Jing Lei and the others and didn't care what was chasing them at all.

Hearing this, he immediately looked outside the protective net.
