“What do you mean?” Song Xiao Bai slightly wrinkled his eyebrows when he heard Tang Wu Yuan’s words.

“It means……” Tang Wu Yuan stood up and moved his muscles, his eyes glowing, “Let’s fight.”

……

The next day, when Sheng Lian arrived at the army, he found that it was quiet and peaceful, without the slightest sign of going to war. The soldiers were training as usual, everything was in order, as usual, as if he had misremembered about today’s expedition.

He looked around but there was no sign of Song Xiao Bai or Tang Wu Yuan, even their offices were deserted.

He pulled a soldier over to him and asked with an unpleasant face: “What’s going on? Why hasn’t the reorganisation of the troops started at this late hour? Where are your Major General and Commander? Where is everyone?”

“The Major General and the Commander……” the soldier looked embarrassed and stumbled for a long time before saying: “The Major General and the Commander were both injured in a fight ……and were called for punishment by the Marshal.”

“What?” Sheng Lian was shocked, “We are going to attack the pirates today, the two of them actually fought?”

“……Yes……” the little soldier looked up and carefully glanced at his face, replying in a low voice.

Sheng Lian’s face turned cold, Tang Wu Yuan and Song Xiao Bai got into a fight at this time, were they crazy?

He could barely suppress his anger and asked in a deep voice: “What about the attack on the Star Pirates?”

“Marshal Xi Meng has just given orders that the attack on the Star Pirates is to be put on hold for now and discussed later.”

“He’s putting the whole plan on hold because of these two? What is Xi Meng this old fool thinking?” Sheng Lian gasped in disbelief, his chest churning with anger.

When the little soldier heard Sheng Lian actually open his mouth to scold the Marshal, he trembled in fear, blinked his eyes and chanted in a small voice: “The Major General and the Commander are not here, this battle can’t be fought, although the strategy has been laid out, but if a new leader is sent to lead us into battle at this time, he also needs to have time to bond with us and can’t go straight into battle……”

“I naturally know, do I still need you to tell me?” Sheng Lian glared at him angrily.

The little soldier hastily withdrew his voice, not daring to say more.

Sheng Lian’s face was as dark as it could be, and he gave the little soldier a fierce glare, “Get lost!”

The little soldier was shocked by his sinister expression and hurriedly ran away in a huff.

Sheng Lian’s eyes sank and sank, and finally he threw his sleeves and left in anger.

……

The news that Song Xiao Bai and Tang Wu Yuan had been arrested and punished for fighting soon spread throughout the Golden Eagle Army, and all the people were totally confused when they heard the news. For several years, the Major General and the Commander had been arguing about things big and small, but they never fought. This was the first time. Did the conflict between the Major General and the Commander escalate again?

Everyone in the army was worried, only Song Xiao Bai’s cronies were moved to tears and hugged together with a secret cheer. Zhu Qiang ate an extra bowl of rice with a big appetite after hearing the news, the Major General and the Commander had fought, what did this mean?

It meant they were clean and clear and still nemesis!

……

In the Marshal’s office, Marshal Xi Meng was sitting at the top of the table, his temples were already slightly white, but his eyes were still shining, and a military uniform made him look hale and hearty.

His gaze was falling soberly on Tang Wu Yuan’s body, pausing for half a minute before moving back to Song Xiao Bai’s body. Half a minute later, he rubbed his temples with a headache, his tone helpless: “You guys just said that you were badly injured from fighting, so you can’t lead your troops into battle, how come I didn’t see where your injuries are? Have I grown old and my eyesight is lost to this point?”

Song Xiao White: “……Wounded on the body.”

Tang Wu Yuan: “……It’s covered by clothes.”

He really wanted to fight Song Xiao Bai yesterday, but unfortunately Song Xiao Bai didn’t agree, so the two of them could only be cheeky and open their mouths to speak nonsense today.

“Are you guys treating me like a three year old child?” The Marshal’s head hurt even more, and he hurriedly picked up his tea and took a sip, which made him feel like he was breathing a bit better.

Song Xiao Bai was silent for a moment and couldn’t help but care, “Elder Meng, you take care of your health.”

Marshal Xi Meng looked at him with a cold snort and heavily put down his teacup: “You still know to tell me to take care of my health, I thought you were going to anger me to death!”

Song Xiao Bai’s voice was clear, cool and respectful, “Of course I hope you live a long life.”

Hearing his words, Marshal Xi Meng sighed, the bit of anger in his eyes that hadn’t gathered dispersed cleanly.

“Back then, Brother Song passed away to save me, and over the years I have taken over his appointment as this Marshal, protecting the Empire, and although the process has been difficult, I can barely say that I have lived up to what he entrusted me with.”

Marshal Xi Meng’s voice paused for a moment and he said in a somewhat old voice: “Now, the only important task I have left is you. I originally didn’t want you to join the army, I only wished for you to safely and steadily live your life, but you inherited Brother Song’s military talent and you had the heart to join the army, I also couldn’t bear to bury your talent, so I persuaded Song sister in law to agree to you joining the army. I have no children of my own, my greatest wish is that you can become a talent, and as a result you you……you’re angering me like this?”

Tang Wu Yuan stood by and listened silently without speaking, he had once heard Tang Bo Te say that Song Xiao Bai’s father was the previous Marshal and was a good brother to Marshal Xi Meng and would go through thick and thin together.

It was the day an official of the Empire got married and a party was held on the cruise ship in the evening, Marshal Song and Marshal Xi Meng both went to attend. During the party, a few armed men sneaked in and were accidentally encountered by Marshal Xi Meng, who alone was no match for so many of them and was caught by them and had a time bomb strapped on him.

When Marshal Song found Marshal Xi Meng, the time bomb on Marshal Simon’s body had only a few minutes left to detonate. He went over alone to save Xi Meng, the bomb was a special device, once pressed, it could not be released and would immediately explode when released. So Marshal Song dismantled the time bomb and jumped off the ship alone, holding the time bomb.

He saved the entire ship, but he himself did not leave a complete body behind.

Marshal Song is a hero who deserves to be praised by all. He was brave and fearless and has done many meritorious deeds for the Empire, and the people of the Empire still speak of him with pride.

The people of the empire all spoke of Marshal Song with admiration. All those on that boat back then were dignified people in the empire, and they were all grateful for Marshal Song’s kindness in saving their lives, and had taken good care of the mother and son over the years, so Song Xiao Bai would have been fine as long as he did not make a huge mistake.

Marshal Xi Meng became angry again as he spoke, and he glared impatiently at Song Xiao Bai and Tang Wu Yuan, “Hurry up and tell me what is going on with you two!”

Tang Wu Yuan silently glanced at Song Xiao Bai, who took the initiative to speak up and tell the whole story, his voice low and deep, his narrative clear, making people want to patiently listen.

After hearing him out, Marshal Xi Meng pondered for a moment and spoke: “Your speculations are not unreasonable, the matter of attacking the Star Pirates is not trivial, we indeed cannot act recklessly, in case there is really a spy, the consequences would be unthinkable, you two did the right thing and through this experiment, you can also feel a little more at ease.”

He paused for a moment and looked up at the two of them, “But this reason of your mutual fighting……” he gave a difficult expression and asked: “Who came up with it?”

Tang Wu Yuan did not look away and lowered his head not wanting to admit it.

Marshal Xi Meng guessed by looking at this his expression, every time Tang Wu Yuan made a mistake in the past, he always had this look. He couldn’t help but laugh, his voice leisurely said: “Wu Yuan, this is a bit risky move of yours, didn’t you ever think that I would expose you?”

Tang Wu Yuan arched his eyebrows and raised his head curtly: “Marshal, I’m sure you won’t, you’ll have to help us out.”

Marshal Xi Meng pointed at him with a smile, “You brat, you calculated right that I would help you.”

Tang Wu Yuan curled his lips and his voice was sweet, “I know you love us.”

Marshal Xi Meng smiled, a look of acceptance, “Your trick is a bit damaging, but it’s still useful.”

He looked at the two of them, Song Xiao Bai and Tang Wu Yuan, and shook his head with a smile, “You say you two, from the time when you were in the military school, you liked to fight with each other, but I didn’t expect that these days, you are partnering with each other to do this kind of things.”

When Tang Wu Yuan and Song Xiao Bai heard his words, they turned their heads to look at each other at the same time, their eyes both a little disgusted.

Marshal Xi Meng’s eyebrows relaxed as he looked at the two younger generations and nodded in relief, saying in a rather happy tone: “When you were at the military academy, I found that you two had complementary personalities and would work perfectly together, so I put you together in the Golden Eagle Army. Now, it is proven that my thinking wasn’t wrong, you two indeed cooperated with very good tacit understanding.”

Tang Wu Yuan cooperated by pulling the corners of his mouth, no, you are wrong, the reason why the two of us have been able to work well together and not fight for so many years is simply because I, the great man, have a great deal of generosity and have not bothered with your Nephew Song.

Song Xiao Bai was reticent, clearly not agreeing with Marshal Xi Meng’s words.

Marshal Xi Meng looked at the two men’s reserved appearance and only thought that they were a little shy. He gave a laugh and stopped making fun of them, pressing the phone and said to the assistant outside: “Major General Song and Commander Tang, disregarding the military rules, fought and brawled in private, they are punished with a two months’ salary fine, as for the corporal punishment that should have been imposed, considering the seriousness of their injuries, they are temporarily exempted and will be punished later.”

After Marshal Xi Meng hung up the call, Tang Wu Yuan’s eyes’ rolled and said in a soft voice: “Marshal, then His Majesty’s side……”

Marshal Xi Meng looked at them and showed a helpless look, “I will call and explain to His Majesty later.”

Tang Wu Yuan immediately smiled and said in a crisp voice, “Thank you Marshal!”

Song Xiao Meng also spoke in a deep voice: “Elder Meng, thank you.”

Marshal Xi Meng smiled and waved his hand at them, “Act to the end, hurry up and go to the hospital and stay for a day.”

Song Xiao Bai and Tang Wu Yuan responded happily before leaving the Marshal’s office and heading to the hospital, where Marshal Xi Meng had already called to greet the hospital.

The doctor didn’t prescribe any medicine for them, he just let them go straight to the ward. Anyway, wars are rare now and there are a lot of vacancies in military hospitals. It’s just leaving a ward for them to stay overnight.

Tang Wu Yuan looked at the ward, two beds placed next to each other side by side, and frowned in dismay, he seriously suspected that Marshal Xi Meng was deliberately trying to punish them.
