Su Pengcheng took quite a while to react.
Grand Commandant Ren actually wanted to exterminate every last barbarian outside the capital!
Not even sparing those shorter than a cartwheel?
For a moment, Su Pengcheng did not know if he was too soft-hearted or if Ren Tianye was too ruthless. However, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, The Su family of the capital is willing to fight to the death for General Ren!
Rise!
Ren Tianye walked over, personally helped him up, and said, Your Su family in the capital consists of civil officials who compile history. Yet, General Wei Shuo recommended you to me. Presumably, when it comes to dealing with the barbarians outside the city, your Su family must have some special abilities.
Why do you not tell me about it.
Su Pengcheng was momentarily shocked by Ren Tianye's sharp mind, but he quickly replied, The Grand Commandant is correct. My Su family indeed has some special abilities. It is not that we are incredibly capable, but rather...
Ever since Tuoba Xiangtai led his people into the capital, we have been plotting this matter. Right now, if we can join forces with the Grand Commandant, we will get twice the result with half the effort, and we will certainly be able to annihilate the barbarians outside the city at the smallest cost.
Ren Tianye said, Be specific.
It is actually quite simple, Su Pengcheng said. When Tuoba Xiangtai entered the city, Her Majesty asked my Su family to welcome him to show respect. After my Su family flatly refused, it made the barbarians extremely furious.
But right now, as long as the Grand Commandant drafts an imperial decree on behalf of Her Majesty, ordering the Su family to offer wine, meat, and provisions to the barbarians on her behalf, I believe the barbarians will not be suspicious.
When the time comes, my Su family will host a banquet for the barbarians. We only need to ambush them with five hundred axemen to eliminate all the barbarian leaders.
Great General, you only need to dispatch a large army to wait for the opportunity to strike.
Ren Tianye smiled faintly. It was still the same old trick: eating, drinking, and axemen. However, he had actually planned the same thing earlier. Without the supply from the Ministry of Revenue, the barbarian army was already facing a severe shortage of food. As long as they figured out a way to lure them in slightly, they could slaughter all their high-ranking officers. The remaining underlings would only be waiting to be killed.
He said, This Grand Commandant accepts this plan.
Then, he, Wei Shuo, and Su Pengcheng discussed the details together. It was not difficult, as the Su family had already been preparing for this.
They quickly reached an agreement.
Ren Tianye finalized the strategy.
The Su family would lead the vanguard. He would draw fifty thousand troops from the Northern Frontier border army and another fifty thousand from the Imperial Guards, handing them all over to Wei Shuo's command. Once the Su family succeeded, Wei Shuo would launch an attack on the thirty thousand-strong barbarian army.
At the same time, he would dispatch Shi Hu to lead twenty thousand elite troops from the Northern Frontier to secretly surround the Yuchen Mansion. As soon as news of the Empress's death came from within the Yuchen Mansion, they would immediately annihilate Tuoba Xiangtai.
As for himself, he would command from the center.
First, he would send a Xiangxiang to Tuoba Xiangtai!
After confirming this, Ren Tianye was in a great mood. This time, whether it was Tuoba Xiangtai or Empress Xiao Mingzhao, both had to die!
...
The Pei Residence!
Lord Pei, Lord Pei...
Chen Liang hurried over in a panic: I have discovered something unusual. The demoted Su family has been extremely active these past few days. They have purchased a large amount of grain, wine, and meat in the capital, all of which are being transported out of the city. I feel that something major is about to happen!
Hearing this, Pei Jingzhi was also startled: What is Su Pengcheng trying to do? What is the use of buying so much grain, wine, and meat?
Neither Pei Jingzhi nor Chen Liang were fools. Moreover, although the stratagem Ren Tianye used was effective and might be an overwhelming blow to the barbarians who were ignorant of Central Plains culture, it was quite easy for these two to figure out.
They are going to make a move on the camp outside the capital!
Pei Jingzhi's expression changed: This is bad. If Ren Tianye attacks the barbarians outside the capital, Tuoba Xiangtai will inevitably be enraged. Her Majesty... is in danger!
Chen Liang... Pei Jingzhi's tone grew increasingly anxious: Do you have any men you can mobilize? Bring them to me immediately. I must make a trip to the Yuchen Mansion!
Even if it is a mountain of blades or a sea of fire, we must rescue Her Majesty!
Lord Pei... Chen Liang's face was full of difficulty: Those squad leaders are truly problematic. I, I...
Soon after, Chen Liang gritted his teeth: Rest assured, My Lord. I will go mobilize men right now. No matter what, I must bring in manpower. There will definitely be major changes in these two days. I am determined to rescue Her Majesty.
Chen Liang got up to mobilize troops, but unfortunately, Pei Jingzhi never managed to wait for the soldiers Chen Liang was supposed to bring. He suddenly remembered that Chen Liang advocated for supporting a new emperor, and his heart immediately sank.
Never mind, never mind. If there is no one to use.
I, Pei Jingzhi, will storm the Yuchen Mansion all by myself!
Even if it is a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, I, Pei Jingzhi, will definitely rescue Her Majesty!

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces.

Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe.

The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled.

Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day!
