Chapter 1846: The World Has Me (20)

Gu Mo pulled back his sleeve, but he didn't say anything harsh, he just said yes.

She was too lazy to use her brain now because every time she used her brain, her head hurt, so she thought that it was left to Li Yan to fix the problem of using her brain, so she prepared her plum blossom gun and took action when it was time to take action.

When Li Yanxiu heard Gu Mo's "hmm", he grinned happily.

Gu Mo poured cold water on him at this time, "We can't stay in Shiji City forever."

Once they leave, the officials will fight back against the people and soldiers, and crazily take back from the people the injustice they suffered at Li Yanxiu's place.

Li Yanxiu looked at Gu Mo and said seriously: "I believe you and I will not give them this chance."

"Um?"

Li Yanxiu said: "Together, we become the sharpest sword in Yuguo. Together we stand on the high ground of Yuguo, holding the power of life and death of these people. At that time, we are the protective umbrella of the people."

Yes, if they don't do this, the common people and soldiers will starve to death sooner or later. If they do, the officials will fight back harder. No matter how hard it is, it is the people at the bottom who suffer.

The only way to solve all this is to solve these problems at the source.

But now they don't have the ability, but that doesn't mean they won't in the near future.

Fortunately, the real army is still waiting outside. Officials need soldiers and people, so they certainly don't dare to go too far.

And when they dare, their heads will be hanging somewhere.

"Since you want to make a knife, let's set off."

Gu Mo said.

Li Yanxiu nodded, and after all the family members outside the city had arrived, the large army finally left Shiji City and continued on their way to Huairen Mansion.

Gu Mo's goal before was Huairen Mansion because the third brother was in Huairen Mansion. Now that the third brother is gone, her goal is to go to Zhending Mansion, defeat the West Route Army, and take back Zhending Mansion.

Cutting off this support point for the East-West Route Army would be equivalent to directly cutting off the East Route Army's retreat. Even if the East Route Army had already besieged the capital, as long as the Yuguo army attacked from both sides, the East Route Army would only be trapped to death.

But the premise is that the army of Yuguo must be strong, and the emperor and ministers must be strong.

If they don't work hard, it will be useless to put a great opportunity in front of them. They will just bend their backs, shout for peace, and talk about it.

Even though everything he did might be in vain, Gu Mo still had to do it.

So, the large army headed for Huairen Mansion in a mighty manner. When they arrived at Huairen Mansion, they were naturally turned away.

They revealed their identities, and the soldiers of Huairen Prefecture also knew that the civilian loyal army had wiped out two thousand real troops outside Shiji City, so they hesitated for a while and wanted to let them in.

But soon someone objected, "Eunuch Tong said that no one will open the city gate, otherwise military law will be dealt with!"

"But they are loyal soldiers and they are also fighting against the real army. Maybe they can help us defend the city..."

"Who knows if it's true or not? The real army is so cunning. What if they are pretending to be real soldiers and trying to sneak into the city?"

But soon, people below the city discovered that among the soldiers on the city were their own relatives, and not just one of them, they started shouting.

We are all relatives and you still shut them out. If the real army comes, the people below the city will definitely suffer. And if you watch your relatives being killed by the real army below the city, can the soldiers on the city still defend the city wholeheartedly?

?

The two low-level generals who took the lead in defending the city usually had no room for decision-making. Now they felt a little numb. On the one hand, they felt that it was not good to keep the loyal soldiers and refugees out of the city. After all, they were relatives. On the other hand, there were people above.

They were ordered not to open the city gates, but they did not dare to disobey the order.

And now they are the only two with the highest military rank in the city, because the city is already empty, and all the soldiers have been taken away by Eunuch Tong and Master Guo Xian. They said they were going to raid the real army to relieve the danger of Huairen Mansion.

So now there is no one to ask for instructions, and they cannot reveal to the people in the city that the army in the city is going to raid the real army. If the news leaks out and the raid fails, they cannot bear the responsibility.

After much thought, they could only ask the people below the city to wait for three days, and then decide whether to open the city gate after three days.

Gu Mo and Li Yanxiu looked at each other and felt something was wrong.

Why does it take three days to decide whether to open the city gate?

If they are unable to make the decision, they can now ask the person who can make the decision, and there will be a result whether the decision is made or not.

Unless, the person who can call the shots in the city is not there at all.

Gu Mo then led his people away from the city gate and found a relatively secluded place to stay, and then sent a few people out to find out the news.

The people who inquired about the news came back soon, and they found that except for the one on the wall, there was no garrison in the city. The 50,000 troops of Huairen Mansion, together with the officials and their families and attendants, seemed to have disappeared from the city out of thin air.

Another person who inquired about the news said: "I have a relative who is guarding the city, so I managed to contact him. He told me that Eunuch Tong and Master Guo led the army in the city to raid the real army..."

Gu Mo, "..."

A big departure.

If the raid was such a secret operation, how come even the low-level soldiers guarding the city knew about it?

Furthermore, for a surprise attack, all officials and their families would be dispatched?

Moreover, it wasn't that Gu Mo looked down on the eunuch and the Taoist priest, but that these two people had no intention of confronting the real army. After all, everyone in the government and the public knew about the stupid things they had done.

Since it wasn't a raid, where did they go?

Gu Mo abandoned the city and ran away, and asked someone to inquire about it.

As long as a team of tens of thousands of people passed by, their traces would still be obvious. Soon, Gu Mo determined their whereabouts.

"They seem to have gone all the way to the Yellow River embankment..."

Hearing the Yellow River Dam, Zhu Li from the Xuanjia Army seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly became very strange.

Gu Mo turned her head and noticed Zhu Li's face. She thought Zhu Li was angry at Eunuch Tong and Master Guo for retreating without a fight, but she didn't expect Zhu Li to whisper to her: "Brother Gu, please take a step to speak."

Gu Mo nodded and followed him aside, "Brother Zhu, just say what you have to say."

"Brother Gu, it has been raining these past few days. As we walked along, all the rivers we saw were swollen, and the water level of the Yellow River must have risen even more..."

Gu Mo nodded, and Zhu Li continued: "The Zhen army has been besieging Huairen Mansion for many months. The three generals were there before and repelled the Zhen army's attacks many times. However, Eunuch Tong, Guo Xianshi and others in the city still believed that Yu Guo defeated the Zhen army.

It’s just an idiot’s dream. Instead of continuing to fight against the real army, it’s better to end it once and for all, so Master Guo Xian came up with a way…”
