After the agreement was reached, Wu Xin did not hold back much, and Du Fuwei and others quickly left.
Now Li Zitong is spreading the news of Du Fuwei's death everywhere, and is trying his best to seize the territory, military strength, resources, etc. of Du Fuwei's army. In addition, the "King Conferment Conference" is about to be held, and there is really no room for Du Fuwei's arrogance.
I was recovering slowly and didn’t have time to discuss the details.
Anyway, Du Fuwei's army's sphere of influence is adjacent to the three counties of Jiangdu. If you are willing to contact them, it will not be difficult.
Watching Du Fuwei and dozens of others leaving, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but asked curiously: "Master, does he really trust him so much? He is an anti-king after all, and people's hearts are at odds with each other! If we really let him become big..."
Wu Xin thought for a while and responded with a smile: "No matter what, the surrounding area is in the hands of Du Fuwei, which is infinitely better than in the hands of Li Zitong. The wealth and resources we secretly support should be bought for the people of all parts of the south.
Stay safe! This deal is a good deal!"
"Really?" Changsun Wuji was startled and looked at Wu Xin with obvious suspicion.
Based on Changsun Wuji's understanding of Wu Xin during this period, Wu Xin was really not a person who "helped others" and devoted himself to giving without asking for anything in return. However, apart from the reasons mentioned by Wu Xin, Changsun Wuji could not think of any other reasons.
The only possibility is that Wu Xin already regarded the south as his own territory and the people of the south as his own people, so he naturally began to care. However, the time had not come yet, and with the constraints of Yang Guang and the court, Wu Xin could not go on the expedition justifiably.
Control, governance, etc. can only be temporarily borrowed from Du Fuwei's hands. This is also a way out, so be prepared for a rainy day!
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji felt more and more like this the more he thought about it, and he felt relieved.
Not to mention Changsun Wuji, Changsun Wuji, Wenrenzhong, Hongbo and others all had similar ideas.
…
Du Fuwei and dozens of others left Wu Xin and others in fear. They were relieved when they were dozens of miles away safely and found that King Xie Wu did not stay in trouble or send anyone to monitor them.
"Lord! What does King Xiewu mean? Do you really trust us so much?"
Wang Xiongdan couldn't help scratching his head and asked Du Fuwei, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. This was also what they wanted to ask.
Up to this point, Du Fuwei and others still felt a bit like they were dreaming, a bit pie-in-the-sky feeling, and it felt very unreal.
Du Fuwei rubbed his temples, smiled bitterly and shook his head, but remained silent.
Not to mention many of his subordinates, even Du Fuwei himself wanted to know, but couldn't figure it out.
"It's okay to negotiate with us peacefully before. After all, the 'King Conferment Conference' is coming soon, and the surrounding area is not suitable for a large-scale war. In addition, the lord is indeed aboveboard, so it is understandable. But, what is going on now?
Is there really such a good thing in the world? Does King Xie Wu trust us too much, or is he too confident in himself?"
Ximen Junyi couldn't help but analyze, and then continued: "According to King Xiewu, this is not a small sum! Even if it is placed on the top wealthy families with five surnames and seven families, it may not be possible! After all, nowadays
These are troubled times, and it’s hard to buy food and supplies even if you have money!”
Before Li Zitong's rebellion, Du Fuwei's army had about five to six million troops. The daily food consumption alone was two to three million kilograms. Even if meat, fruits, etc. were substituted, hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain would be consumed every day.
.
Nowadays, Du Fuwei doesn't know how many old subordinates he can recall. However, it should not be difficult to raise an army of one million people again. The daily food consumption alone is about 500,000 kilograms.
Judging from the market price, half a million kilograms of grain is indeed not much, and it only costs tens of thousands of gold coins. However, nowadays, wars are raging, thieves are everywhere, and there is a shortage of food everywhere. Purchasing and transportation are the biggest problems.
Du Fuwei, who was lucky enough to escape, naturally had no time to take away his original wealth and resources, and was now completely destitute. Fortunately, King Xie Wu took the initiative to find him, otherwise Du Fuwei and others would not even have the confidence to summon their old troops and make a comeback, mainly because they would not be able to support them.
rise!
Puzzled, Du Fuwei looked at the people around him and asked: "What do you... think of King Xie Wu?"
To be honest, Du Fuwei was really touched and grateful that King Xie Wu trusted and supported him so much.
After all, Du Fuwei had no ambitions to conquer the world. Raising a flag to rebel would mean he had no choice but to make ends meet. He did have some thoughts in his mind... He might as well join the Evil King!
Hearing the song knows the elegant meaning. As soon as Du Fuwei said these words, his adopted son, brother, close confidant, etc. who had followed him for many years knew what Du Fuwei was thinking!
Du Fuwei's adopted son Du Feng's face changed slightly and he asked nervously: "Father...are you really going to surrender to King Xie Wu?"
Du Fuwei was silent for a moment, then simply said frankly: "Why not? The rumors are not credible. Based on my several contacts with King Xiewu, King Xiewu treats me well, and his behavior is fair and honest, so it is not difficult to get along with him. Otherwise, he is not difficult to get along with.
If so, the barbarians who hate the human race the most will not assist him..."
"This..." Du Feng hesitated, his disappointment flashed away.
Du Fuwei has no wife and no children. If he really achieves great success, his successors will naturally be his adopted sons and confidants. This is Du Fuwei's advantage and disadvantage.
Kan Leng, who had a purple scarf tied on his forehead and a beard all over his face, looked rugged and heroic, and said with emotion:
"It's not a bad idea! No matter what King Xie Wu's reputation is, at least he is famous all over the world for being kind to his relatives. Otherwise, the Wu family, Changsun family, Wei family, Gao family, Guman and other famous families would not seek refuge with him! In addition, without the help of King Xie Wu,
, we want revenge...I'm afraid..."
Before he finished speaking, Du Fuwei, Wang Xiongdan and others also understood.
During the Li Zitong Rebellion, it was a fluke that they did not die, but they were maimed. Only dozens of remnants and defeated generals were left around them. They needed people but no one, no money, no food. Why should they go there?
revenge?!
With the current situation in the world, Du Fuwei and others are not yet so visionary and conscious. What they want to do most now is...
revenge!
Seeing that most people agreed, Du Feng hurriedly explained: "Feng'er is not against it. It's just that King Xie Wu has done nothing, and his words are unfounded. It always feels a bit untrue! Is there any conspiracy?"
"The Demon Queen... I didn't expect that the mighty Demon Queen and the Demon Sect would really surrender to the Evil Martial King. The truth will be clear when we contact the old department and go directly to the Phantom Tower!"
Kan Leng thought for a while and responded with some surprise.
Before they left, Wu Xin didn't say anything, nor did he send anyone to accompany or monitor them. He just asked them to go to Phantom Tower if they had any problems. If they had any difficulties or needed support, Wu Xin would solve them through Phantom Tower.
Du Feng rolled his eyes, and Gu Zuo reminded in confusion: "Speaking of the Demon Sect... the young master of the Ghost King Sect, one of the four sects of the Demon Sect, the Little Ghost King, has already raised his flag and called himself the King of Great Liang? How could he still support the evil?
Where is King Wu? Is it because the Demon Sect is in internal strife or split? Or is the Great Liang King also a pawn laid by the evil King Wu?"
"What are you thinking about so much? Do we have any other choices now? Seize the opportunity and take it one step at a time..."
Seeing the controversy and suspicion among the people, Ximen Junyi curled his lips and spat out angrily.
King Xie Wu is so honest and gives the greatest trust and support, but they feel uncomfortable? They are asking for trouble! (~^~)
