To the southwest of Jiangdu County, Liyang County and Danyang County are bounded by Tianjiang River.
On the western border of Danyang County, on the bank of Tianjiang River, is Caishi City.
Caishi City, as its name suggests, is famous for its quarrying. It is named Caishi, but it is rich in jade, and its economy is quite prosperous.
At this time, in Quarry City, wailing sounds lingered in the city, beacon smoke filled the air, blood and screams filled the whole city, and countless soldiers ravaged the whole city like locusts, constantly charging into various mansions, shops, and even some courtyards and
Smaller houses are not spared either.
Wu Yunzhao, who has a face like purple jade and is extraordinarily handsome, wears a silver helmet with phoenix wings, silver armor with dragon scales, a white robe of a python dragon, a silver helmet and armor, and stands proudly in the palace of the city lord.
On the top of the pavilion, with mad and violent eyes, he looked at the bloody and chaotic Quarry City, and listened to the endless screams, wails, etc., as if hearing the sounds of nature, and felt a little happy.
The Wu family is full of loyal and loyal people, and his father Wu Jianzhang was even awarded the title of King of Loyalty and Filial Piety, ranking among the Nine Heavenly Kings. He is powerful throughout the world and his name is passed down through the ages.
Now, it has ended like this?!
Troubled times are coming, the world is out of control, twisted, deformed, and there are no good results for loyal people.
When the Wu clan and King Zhongxiao Wu Jianzhang were robbed, Brother Wu Yunzhao quickly received the news. At that time, it was like a wake-up call. The Wu brothers were confused and wanted to go crazy. They wanted to kill Yang Lin, the patron king, and assassinate the civil and military saint immediately.
Emperor Yang Guang overthrew the Sui Empire and avenged his father and family.
Fortunately, he received advice and guidance from an expert, and Wu Yunzhao himself was not stupid, and had some sense. He knew that if his brother acted rashly, his death would be in vain, and the Wu clan would really be exterminated, so he did not execute it.
However, he immediately left quietly and joined Li Zitong's account, eager to avenge his father and family.
"Report..."
While Wu Yunzhao was thinking a lot, a scout came quickly and reported quickly:
"Inform the Marquis of Nanyang that traces of Sui troops have been found hundreds of miles to the east. They are suspected to be the personal guards of King Xie Wu... Xinwu Guards estimate that they will arrive at the city in an hour. Please make a decision, Lord Marquis!"
"Xinwuwei? Prince Wu's Mansion responded so quickly. Isn't King Xiewu still in Yangzhou City now? Did he come so quickly? And he brought his personal guards with him?"
Wu Yunzhao's face changed slightly, and he blurted out a question in disbelief. He paused and quickly continued:
"Is the information certain? Have you found any traces of King Evil Martial? Is it just a cover-up?"
The scout hesitated for a moment and reported truthfully: "Report to the Marquis! The information is confirmed, but no trace of King Xie Wu was found. According to the information, King Xie Wu should still be in Yangzhou City!"
"Isn't King Xie Wu personally leading the charge? Is it because he wants to scare our army?"
Wu Yunzhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and murmured in thought. He paused and quickly gave instructions:
"Give me the order. Withdraw half of the army first, and the rest of the army will move quickly and be ready to evacuate at any time!"
Since Li Zitong betrayed Du Fuwei and won the surrender of the Wu brothers, he divided his troops into three groups and used all his strength to plunder the wealth and resources of Liyang County and Danyang County.
Caishi City is a famous economic city, and the most powerful man Wu Yunzhao is in charge. He also leads more than 800,000 rebels, known as a million-strong army.
Wu Xin also said that he was right. No matter it was Du Fuwei, Li Zitong or even the Wu brothers, they did not want to go to war with King Xie Wu. No one was sure of winning. Instead, they lacked confidence and felt that they would lose more than they would win.
Therefore, we are more fearful and pay more attention to it.
"Yes!" the scout responded respectfully and was about to leave.
He then heard Wu Yunzhao's instructions: "Instruct Liu Xu to lead an army of 100,000 to guard the east city wall. Be sure to stop the Xinwu Guards and try to buy us as much time as possible!"
The scouts took the order and left, and Wu Yunzhao passed down several more military orders. He ordered the generals to guard the city gates in all directions. While slowly withdrawing the troops, he also ensured that Caishi City would not be easily captured.
Wu Yunzhao was confident that even if the Xinwu Guards arrived, his own army of defenders would be enough to keep the Xinwu Guards away and wait for his own army to retreat calmly.
Of course, the more important point is that Wu Yunzhao is reluctant to part with the wealth resources of the wealthy Caishi City, and the transfer of countless wealth resources cannot be transferred in a short time.
Half an hour later...
"Report..."
While Wu Yunzhao was waiting for the situation to develop, a scout quickly came to report:
"Report to the Marquis! According to reports from spies, the Xinwu Guards this time are the commander-in-chief of King Xiewu's wife, the eldest wife, Sun Wugou, and the second wife, Wei Gui. The number is 10,000 silver-armored guards, 10,000 iron-armored guards, and there will be hundreds more to follow.
An army of more than ten thousand is pressing forward. However, the main force of the Sui army will not arrive in this city until tomorrow at the earliest!"
"Huh...it turns out that the two wives of King Xiewu are the commanders. It seems that King Xiewu really didn't react so quickly. He probably just commanded by remote control!"
Wu Yunzhao unabashedly breathed a sigh of relief, responded, and quickly ordered: "Let's explore again, keep an eye on it, and if anything unusual happens, report it at any time!"
The scout took the order and left. A middle-aged scholar in a civil robe suggested with some emotion:
"Master Hou! Why don't we take the evil King Wu's wife? If we can use this as a blackmail, maybe we don't need to evacuate Liyang County and Danyang County. At the worst... we can also let the Prince Wu's Mansion throw a trap and try to buy us time.
!”
"Take down the evil king's wife?"
Wu Yunzhao murmured quite emotionally and pondered for a moment, then responded with some hesitation: "Isn't it appropriate? With the strength of Prince Wu's palace, and our current strength and military power, it is not difficult to resist Xinwuwei. I want to capture two people from Xinwuwei's army.
The wife of King Xiewu, that’s impossible, right? After all, the two wives of King Xiewu are here together, so there must be many great monks to protect them!”
"It all depends on manpower! Compared with the great monks, our side is indeed far inferior to Prince Wu's Mansion. However, this is a battlefield, not a battle between rivers and lakes. With the strength of the Marquis, who else can stop the Marquis except King Wu himself?"
The middle-aged scribe gave advice without giving up.
"That's true..."
Wu Yunzhao responded with his eyes bright, and then continued: "Let's go! Go and meet the next two wives of King Xiewu and his bodyguards. If we can defeat and capture these two ladies, our reputation will be greatly shocked, and we can counterattack Danyang County.
Jiangdu County is not a big problem!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" the middle-aged scribe quickly praised.
"How brave you are to capture my two wives!"
As soon as the middle-aged scribe finished speaking, a majestic and rough voice sounded out of thin air, as if falling from the sky, reverberating between heaven and earth...
"who?!"
"Evil King of Martial Arts?!"
Wu Yunzhao, the middle-aged scribe and others shouted in surprise, but some people still recognized the person who made the noise.
"You Wu brothers... are reckless and impulsive! Things are not what you think and what the rumors say. There is another story behind the death of your respected father and the destruction of the family. The imperial court will never do such a sensational thing at this time.
ah!"
In mid-air in front of Wu Yunzhao's left, Wu Xin appeared teleportingly, reminding him with regret and regret on his face.
After a pause, Wu Yunzhao quickly continued:
"As long as the Wu brothers are willing to surrender, I, with the guarantee of the title, will give an explanation to King Zhongxiao and the Wu family! If the Wu brothers continue to make such mistakes, they will only go further and further, and the consequences will be unimaginable, and they will even fall into the trap of some
A treacherous plot by someone with bad intentions." (To be continued.)
