The rebel armies from all directions have arrived?!
If so, after only three days, the power and coordination efficiency of the anti-military aircraft were quite high. We must re-evaluate the anti-military military capabilities!
"See my lord (Wu Guogong)!"
When everyone arrived, they always bowed first. Wu Xin nodded and looked at them in confusion, thinking about how to word it. ≤≤小≤ said,
Yang Wang, the prince of the country, took the lead in offering wine and said: "Mr. Wu, something bad has happened! Reinforcements from all directions have been blocked, including General Chen Leng of Wu Benlang, General Qu Tutong of Wuwei, General Yu Wenshu of Yiwei on the left, and General Xiaowei on the right.
It will take more than a month for the four fastest reinforcements including Lai Huer and others to arrive."
"Oh? That's it! Isn't it true that rebels from all directions have gathered in the Eastern Capital?"
Wu Xin responded with a calm expression and asked doubtfully.
"..."
Yang Wang, Eunuch Li, Zuo Qiupu and others looked at each other in silence for a while.
Isn't it surprising that Lord Wu Guogong is so calm about such a big event? Isn't he not worried? Can't he give some reaction?
Eunuch Li thought for a while, then he forced himself to speak and reminded: "Mr. Wu! This matter has been rigorously confirmed many times. In other words, we must hold on to Dongdu for more than a month, maybe one and a half months!"
"hehe……"
Wu Xin suddenly understood what everyone was nervous and worried about, and couldn't help but chuckle and asked: "You are just counting on reinforcements? Don't you want to rely on the power of Dongdu to resist the rebels, or even repel them?"
"ah?!"
Yang Wang, Eunuch Li and others looked stiff, not knowing how to respond.
Zuo Qiupu couldn't help but remind: "Lord! According to the intelligence, the number of rebels around Dongdu has already exceeded ten million, and it is still increasing sharply every day. According to estimates, it may be close to twenty million now, and it is not yet
Including the rest of the rebels. If the nearby rebels dare to come again, the number and lineup will be even greater!"
"Then what?" Wu Xin asked, still not caring.
Zuo Qiupu bravely analyzed: "Now the Dongdu army, even if it is fully recruited, is only about 4 million troops, most of which are newly recruited soldiers. In addition, about 250,000 regular troops died in the battle the day before yesterday, and in the past three days,
The losses continue again. The army is beginning to be somewhat insufficient, and even the recruitment efficiency has slowed down a lot. Many people have even begun to flee the Eastern Capital. If this continues, one will decline and the other will increase, the Eastern Capital is in danger!"
"So what? With the Eastern Capital of Luoyang, if we can't stop even three or four times the enemy's force, then what's the use of the imperial court supporting us? What's the point of an Eastern Capital that's on the level of Tiandu?"
Wu Xin frowned, pretending to be angry and continued to ask. After a pause, his expression straightened, and he stood up and continued with pride:
"Most of our troops are new soldiers. Could it be that all the rebels are regular troops? Sixty-seven percent of our troops are new soldiers, so eighty-nine percent of the rebels are new soldiers, or even more than ninety percent. Since I dare to come to the Eastern Capital, I took over again
I didn’t expect that the Eastern Capital would be unable to stop it, and I didn’t expect reinforcements!”
In fact, Wu Xin had known that this battle would last for a month or two, so this news was not surprising at all, and he had been mentally prepared for it!
Unexpectedly, this news had such a big impact on everyone!
Of course, what Wu Xin said was also psychological. The majestic Tiandu, in theory, is enough to withstand ten times or dozens of times the enemy's force. How can you be so panicked after only three or four times the enemy? What's the point of having a Tiandu-level city?
It is estimated that everyone was frightened by the battle in Dongcheng District and overestimated the combat power of the rebels!
"..."
Everyone was speechless. Most of them looked ashamed or ashamed, and even more, they were a little frightened by what Duke Wu was thinking.
Everyone who originally had a lot to say was at a loss for words.
Even Zuoqiupu, Jin Yuantong and others had the idea of advising the lord to step down from his post in the Eastern Capital as early as possible and leave the East Capital as soon as possible.
Jin Suanzi glanced at Eunuch Li and Yang Wang hesitantly, and reported: "Lord! There have been a lot of rumors in Dongdu these days. They are quite unfavorable to the lord!"
Jin Suanzi is also a great literary cultivator. He is currently the main person in charge of logistics and supplies among the Wuxin forces, so he naturally has more contact with the outside world.
"Oh? Rumor?!"
Wu Xin's heart thumped, and he muttered with a bad intuition, and then laughed at himself and continued: "Is it because of his great achievements, greed for money, murderousness, lack of humanity, the second Yue King Yang Su, etc.?"
As he spoke, Wu Xin couldn't help but think of Bai Jue's previous warning... a hidden arrow from the imperial court.
It seems that the anti-military or hostile forces have begun to attack themselves starting from the Sui Empire!
This is not a rare strategy. People who are unable or difficult to deal with head-on will use indirect methods to achieve their goals.
"Yes!" Jin Suanzi nodded in response, and at the same time secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as did everyone else.
It turns out that Duke Wu Guo had known this for a long time, that would be great!
Wu Xin laughed at himself, looked around at everyone and asked: "You reacted like this, it seems that the court has reacted? Are you serious?"
Fortunately for others, the three major literary cultivators gathered together, plus Hong Bo, Ancestor Xian Kong, Wen Renzhong and other confidants rushed over anxiously. It was obviously not just the anti-military situation and rumors, but it should be related to immediate matters!
quiet!
silence!
Everyone was silent, and the atmosphere became a bit strange and depressing.
"Wu Guogong! The Holy Emperor has issued a decree to remove Wu Guogong from his position in the Eastern Capital and replace it with the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!"
In the end, it was Li Tang who represented Li Zhan, and he spoke out with regret and worry. After a pause, he quickly added: "Tang Guogong has been working hard on this matter and asked the sage Queen Mother (Dugu Jialuo) to come forward. I believe
Things will get better!”
Obviously, Li Zhan came to ask for favors on behalf of Li Tang.
Of course, Li Tang should have really done this, otherwise he would not dare to say it in public. As for the effect, it is hard to say!
"Changing generals on the spot? Can such a crude strategy be effective?"
Wu Xin was shocked and blurted out in disbelief.
In Wu Xin's impression, Yang Guang was actually a rather wise and wise emperor, but he had a rather domineering and strong character. This character was really not a shortcoming for the emperor.
The only shortcoming is that Yang Guang has an impatient personality and thinks too highly of himself, so he underestimates everyone in the world!
It’s really unimaginable that Yang Guang would fall for such a trick?
If God wants him to perish, he must first make him crazy!
"This...Holy Lord..."
Mr. Mingji glanced at Yang Wang and Eunuch Li, but hesitated to speak. He obviously knew something, but it was not convenient to say it now.
"Cough! Cough! Don't misunderstand Mr. Wu... Your Majesty, it's just... it's just... there are inevitably some sycophants and traitors in this world. Duke Wu's ability, achievements and loyalty are obvious to everyone, and it will never have any impact. It is just a temporary measure.
To block the mouth of Youyou in the world!"
Yang Wang coughed several times and spoke hesitantly. During the few words, his cheeks showed signs of sweating.
Asking Fan Zigai to step in to do this is just adding fuel to the fire, because Fan Zigai is the new Dongdu stayer. If someone else is asked to step in, but their level is not high enough, it is obvious that they do not take Wu Guogong seriously.
So, it falls on him!
This is completely an errand to offend people, and it offends a new star who is optimistic about the world and has a bright future. It will also indirectly offend many people. Because of Wu Guogong's actions, he saved many people and has a tendency to become a great hero in the world. Why?
So unlucky?
Of course, the emperor is the emperor after all. Neither Mr. Mingji nor Yang Wang will or dare to speak ill of the emperor.
"Doesn't it have any impact?" Uncle Hong, who was always silent, couldn't help but sneered and interjected.
Wen Renzhong perked up and immediately echoed: "What's an expedient way to block the world's Youyou mouth?! I don't know what else... Youyou's mouth?"
"Bold! How can you allow you to question what Your Majesty has decided?"
Eunuch Li, who was originally a little guilty, turned cold and shouted angrily.
Wen Renzhong's face showed dissatisfaction and anger, and he was about to speak out. In Wen Renzhong's heart, only young master Wu Xin was the only one. No one else cared about him, and he didn't care whether he was a saint or not.
"What advice does Eunuch Li have?" Wu Xin waved his hand to stop Wen Renzhong and looked at Eunuch Li calmly and asked.
The tone was calm and there was no hint of anger or grievance, but everyone could hear Wu Xin's suppressed anger.
Eunuch Li's attitude towards Duke Wu was much better, and he advised him earnestly: "This... Duke Wu, really don't think too much about it! It's just the misdirection of some sycophants and thieves. Everyone has become a tiger, and it's really not good to not respond. Duke Wu must also be considerate... of the court!"
"It's okay! I have learned a lot about what happened this time, so I just took the opportunity to go into retreat and show my personal strength! My strength is really bad, I am not even a great monk, I really have no face to face the world!"
Wu Xin nodded and responded casually.
Everyone was ashamed that one of the four greatest evildoers in the world, who could not shake even the giant siege ballistae, even said that his strength was too weak and he had no face to see others!
What should they do?
There were several people over 100 years old present, how embarrassing it was!
"Wu Guogong is joking! This time our family has brought His Highness the King of Yue. His Highness the King of Yue personally promised: 'As long as I am alive and as long as Wu Guogong does nothing to harm the Sui Empire, I will protect Wu Guogong unless I die.
.Even if the Holy One grants death, I will die with Duke Wu!'"
Eunuch Li responded with a smile, then straightened his face, took out a purple gold token, handed it out, and said in a particularly solemn and solemn tone, his expression and tone were quite strange, as if he was practicing, very lifelike.
After a pause, he added: "These are the exact words of His Royal Highness the King of Yue!"
"The order of the King of Yue?" Wen Renzhong couldn't help but asked in surprise. Others were also stunned, surprised and confused.
This is the prince's token issued by the Sui Empire. Holding this token means that the prince is here in person. To a certain extent, it is more useful than the death-free gold medal.
Yang Tong is not only a prince, but also the emperor's grandson. Anyone who kills the emperor's grandson is tantamount to rebellion and will kill the nine tribes!
"This..." Wu Xin frowned and hesitated.
In Wu Xin's mind, Yang Guang was hopeless and was becoming more and more crazy. It was only a matter of time before he started his own army, but he couldn't accept this favor!
"The imperial edict cannot be violated! However, whether it is His Royal Highness the King of Yue or the Minister, they will still respect Duke Wu. Duke Wu will still make the final decision on matters in the Eastern Capital. In fact, there will be no change. Duke Wu must not refuse, otherwise... King Yue
His Highness will be very sad!"
Seeing that Wu Xin wanted to refuse, Eunuch Li said quickly.
Before coming, Eunuch Li, Fan Zigai, Yang Wang and others had actually advised Yang Tong that this token was extremely important and should not be handed over out of heed.
Now, Eunuch Li feels that His Royal Highness the King of Yue is quite wise and wise even though he is young! (To be continued.)
