Chapter 265 Great Shame and Great Humiliation Happy New Year
Chapter 265 A great shame and humiliation (Happy New Year)
Something really happened!
Surprisingly, everyone was guessed by the vicious people behind the scenes.
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was besieged in Yanmen County and urgently asked for help from the officials and troops of surrounding counties.
For a time, the world was shaken, and then the public sentiment was raging.
Behind the scenes, Li Yuan, the Li clan leader guarding Hedong, was venomously slandered. This matter is definitely related to him.
Of the forty-one cities attached to Yanmen County, thirty-nine cities were captured by Turkic cavalry in the blink of an eye, and even the news could not spread.
Do you really think that the officers and soldiers of the Sui army who guarded the frontier fortress were all idlers?
If there were no forces behind the scenes to block the news, even a fool would not believe it.
Therefore, the venomous saying behind the scenes, "All officials in Hedong deserve to die," was echoed by countless people.
In the back hall of the official residence of Tongshou Mansion in Xingyang, Zhang Xutuo and his close military commanders were discussing sending troops to rescue the Sui Emperor.
However, after many discussions, it turns out that if you bring too few soldiers, it will be useless; if you bring too many, the journey will be far away and you may not be able to make it in time.
Just when they were at their wits' end, a personal guard came in and whispered in Zhang Xutuo's ear.
Zhang Xutuo's expression changed for a while, and he waved his guard to leave.
"Just now, the second head of Wagang sent me a message, asking me to meet outside the city and talk about His Majesty's affairs!"
There were all close military commanders present, and he explained the situation directly without any concealment.
"Mr. Zhang, be careful of fraud. Let's go with you!"
Qin Qiong spoke in a deep voice, and Luo Shixin and Cheng Yaojin both nodded in agreement.
Pei Yuanqing did not speak, but his tense face showed the unease in his heart.
He is a warm-blooded young man with a simple mind. He is easily infected by the surrounding environment. He is attracted by the charm of a fierce general like Zhang Xutuo and becomes a member of the circle of close military commanders.
"Just in time, I will meet this mysterious master!"
Zhang Xutuo laughed and took Qin Qiong and others out of the city directly. On a hilltop not far from the city, they met Wu Dong, who had been waiting for a long time.
The moment he saw Wu Dong, Zhang Xutuo's expression became extremely solemn.
Because the Wu Dong he saw was almost integrated with the surrounding environment.
If his tall body hadn't been so conspicuous, it would have been easy to ignore him. He fit in so well with the surrounding environment.
This situation suddenly reminded him of the name of a realm: the unity of heaven and man!
But the next moment, he put aside this ridiculous idea, feeling that he was overthinking it, and that it was impossible for Wu Dong to reach that legendary state.
"Leader Wu, why did you come to us?"
After all, we were not all traveling together. Zhang Xutuo and his party stopped when they were still more than ten feet away from Wu Dong, and directly asked what happened.
"I'm here to give General Zhang advice!"
Wu Dong laughed and said easily: "Come to think of it, General Zhang is worried about how to go to Yanmen County to rescue Emperor Sui!"
"How do you know?"
Before Zhang Xutuo could speak, Luo Shixin couldn't help being surprised and asked.
Zhang Xutuo and Qin Qiong had the urge to cover their faces, which was really embarrassing.
"Haha, is this easy to guess? I don't think General Zhang needs to worry about it!"
Wu Dong smiled and said leisurely: "Just you few powerful generals, just set off directly to Yanmen County!"
"There are hundreds of thousands of Yang Guang's troops there, so there is no need to lead troops there!"
"What they lack right now is courageous generals and powerful masters. As for ordinary soldiers, it's not that important!"
Zhang Xutuo's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his heart suddenly became bright.
What Wu Dong said was indeed reasonable. What Yang Guang lacked at the moment were fierce generals and generals who dared to charge into battle and face the Turkic cavalry, rather than ordinary soldiers.
only……
He warned: "What are your intentions?"
"It's nothing, I just want to make Yanmen County more lively!"
Wu Dong said calmly: "Not only will you go, I will also follow you!"
Seeing Zhang Xutuo's expression changed drastically, he chuckled and waved his hands: "Don't worry, I have no interest in Yang Guang's life!"
"Don't believe it, if I really want to target Yang Guang, his three expeditions to Goguryeo will not go so smoothly!"
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Xutuo was shocked, but his face remained calm as he asked, "Is it possible that you actively participated in the three conquests of Goguryeo?"
"Hey, if my friends and I hadn't restrained the powerful Goguryeo master Fu Cailin, do you think Goguryeo would have bowed its head so easily?"
Wu Dong smiled softly and said something that Zhang Xutuo and others found difficult to accept.
'To put it nicely, what evidence do you have to prove that Fu Cailin was restrained by you?'
Zhang Xutuo spoke harshly, but he believed it in his heart.
As a general of the Sui army, he still knew some relatively secret things.
During the three campaigns against Goguryeo, Fu Cailin, the powerful master of Goguryeo, did not show up. This is an indisputable fact.
Afterwards, the Sui army heard a rumor, saying that when the Sui army was attacking, Fu Cailin suddenly suffered heavy losses for unknown reasons, and finally had to retreat early.
As for whether it is true, Zhang Xutuo is not very sure.
"Need evidence?"
Wu Dong was amused and said leisurely: "To be honest, Yang Guang being alive at this time is the best situation for Wagang and other rebels!"
"Otherwise, the chaos in the world will end up being nothing more than a hegemony game played by aristocratic families, and there will be no problems for low-level troublemakers like Wagang!"
"Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said very well, 'Princes and generals should be willing to be with each other'
The world of the year?”
"That's enough, I'm not here to listen to your teachings!"
Zhang Xutuo's face was as dark as water. He interrupted Wu Dong's words without politeness and said coldly, "Why do you want to go to Yanmen County?"
Don't say some things so straightforwardly, because even though they are true, they don't sound like that.
"I plan to go over and block the Turkic Martial Lord Bi Xuan!"
Smiling softly, Wu Dong glanced at the people across from him and asked, "How about I include you guys?"
One sentence made Zhang Xutuo, Qin Qiong and others blush, but they didn't have the confidence to continue.
Just kidding, what kind of existence is Martial Master Bixuan, one of the three great masters in the world?
"Do you think you have the strength to stop Bixuan?"
Zhang Xutuo spoke subconsciously and knew something was wrong as soon as the words came out of his mouth.
It is not surprising that people who dared to go to the Liaodong battlefield to contain the powerful Goguryeo master Fu Cailin now went to Yanmen County to target the martial master Bixuan.
On the other hand, he and his close generals do not yet have the confidence to face a top powerhouse like Martial Lord Bixuan.
It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that it's a worthless act of dying in vain that no one is willing to do.
"Tsk, tsk, the Turkic cavalry quietly descended into thirty-nine cities, as if all the cities in Yanmen County were made of paper!"
At this time, Wu Dong let out a strange chuckle, which made Zhang Xutuo and his close generals' faces turn red with embarrassment.
I want to refute, but I don't know how to refute.
The matter was clearly laid out there, and it was obvious that someone powerful had tampered with it.
Even if Martial Lord Bixuan takes action personally regardless of his face, it is impossible to completely block the news.
Apart from the Li Clan leader, there is no one else who has such ability and such demand in Hedong.
Zhang Xutuo had already scolded him in his heart. Li Yuan really didn't deserve to be a human being, so that in front of Wu Dong, the leader of the rebel bandit, he was speechless and embarrassed. It was simply a great shame and humiliation.
Most of the confidant generals next to them were in the same state of mind. They were embarrassed, angry and ashamed, but they couldn't bring up the slightest murderous intention.
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense to you anymore, it's better to leave early!"
Waving his hand, Wu Dong said with a smile: "Go a day early so that Yang Guang will not be frightened for another day. Remember to kill a few more Turkic generals. You should be able to do it!"
"You don't need to worry about this, let's go!"
Zhang Xutuo snorted coldly, and without any intention of continuing the nonsense, he turned around and left with his trusted generals.
In fact, he didn't know how to continue staying, it was too embarrassing.
I want to take action, but I can’t think of such an idea at all...
Um!
Zhang Xutuo suddenly realized that he had arrived at the city gate. He suddenly stopped and turned around, almost colliding with Luo Shixin behind him.
"Mr. Zhang, what are you..."
Qin Qiong saw something was wrong, pulled Luo Shixin away, and asked in a deep voice: "Is there anything wrong?"
"Ever since meeting Wu Dong's secret servant, I have not had the slightest idea of murder!"
Zhang Xutuo's face was calm, but his eyes were very meaningful, and he asked directly: "What about you?"
The faces of Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and Pei Yuanqing suddenly turned pale as paper. It was obvious that they all had the same thoughts.
That would be a bit scary...
It would be okay if Zhang Xutuo didn't point it out, maybe one day he would suddenly realize it, leaving a deep mark on his heart, and it wouldn't affect his mood too much.
But at this time, being directly pointed out by Zhang Xutuo, they all felt horrified just thinking about it.
It can actually affect their state of mind quietly, just like moisturizing things silently. What kind of profound cultivation and method is this?
Horrible, really terrible!
How advanced is Wu Dong's cultivation?
They can't think it through, and they don't dare to think about it further, otherwise it will definitely be a heavy blow to their self-confidence.
Next, they had to rush to Yanmen County to rescue him. They might face a crazy siege by the Turkic cavalry, so they had to stay in good condition, both mentally and physically.
"Okay, we don't need to think so much!"
Zhang Xutuo's psychological quality was good enough. He quickly calmed down and said in a deep voice: "We will set off immediately after returning home. The defense of Xingyang will be left to Cheng Zhijie!"
"Will the Wagang Army suddenly take action and catch Xingyang by surprise?"
"No, if Wu Dong really had the strength to block Martial Master Bi Xuan, Xingyang would have been unable to defend it long ago!"
Zhang Xutuo said calmly: "Since he has no intention of taking action, he will not do such a disgraceful thing at such a time..."
Happy Chinese New Year to all my book friends. I wish you good health, money and leisure.
It’s the last day, so I’d like to ask for a monthly pass.
