Zhao Pu, courtesy name Zeping, was born in Ji, Youzhou, and later moved to Luoyang. He was a famous politician in the Northern Song Dynasty.
In the first month of the seventh year of Xiande, he and Zhao Kuangyin launched the Chenqiao Mutiny, and put a yellow robe on Zhao Kuangyin, overthrowing the Later Zhou Dynasty and establishing the Song Dynasty. In the second year of Qiande, he served as prime minister, assisted Taizu in planning to seize vassal towns, and deposed military generals. Implemented new garrison laws, reformed the official system, and formulated many major measures to defend the border and Liao Dynasty.
In history, Zhao Pu was a popular figure next to Zhao Kuangyin. Unexpectedly, when he returned to the war continent, he would still be a minister of Hugu in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Alone, he stepped into the Chu State's 400,000-strong army. His courage was commendable, but now his face was like Mount Tai collapsing in front of him, but his expression remained unchanged. There was calmness on his old cheeks, and his brilliance shone.
"Generals, the Chu army's combat power is astonishing and invincible. Of course, the Yingtian City in front of us cannot stop the Chu army. However, I have been waiting for several days, and I do have something important to tell you!"
Zhao Pu spoke again, his gaze passing over the three of them. Li Jing had no intention of stopping him, and raised his hand to indicate:
"Sir, if you have anything to say, you may as well say it directly. Our army is about to attack the city, and I don't have time to waste too much time with you again!"
Hear the sound.
Zhao Pu turned pale, gave a helpless smile, seemed a little lonely, and said: "Yingtian City has been controlled by the Moon Worshiping Empire, and my emperor is in prison. I hope that the generals can attack the city and kill my emperor."
"Actually, as early as a few months ago when the Duke of Ming Dynasty came to the Northern Song Dynasty Palace, my emperor had already intended to surrender to the Chu State and obey the destiny to protect the people of the Northern Song Dynasty from the torment of the war. However, the King of Jin colluded with the Moon Worshiping Empire to imprison me. The emperor enslaved the people of the Northern Song Dynasty and became enemies with Chu."
"None of this is my emperor's intention. I hope that all the generals can help my emperor get out of trouble. I will be ashamed of myself and be loyal to the Emperor of Chu."
“It turned out that I came here for help!”
"It only took a moment for our Chu army to invade Yingtian City. The life and death of the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty has nothing to do with us. If our troops invade Yingtian, the Empire of the Northern Song Dynasty will cease to exist, and the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty will have no value at all."
"Pharmacist, don't talk to him anymore. I will lead people to attack the city right now!"
"Destroyed Yingtian City and destroyed Baiyue, the last soldier of the Northern Song Dynasty. As for the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, he will let him wait in prison. After the city is broken, I will send someone to send him back to the Beast Imperial City and hand him over to His Majesty."
Lu Bu had a fiery personality and didn't want to waste too much time on Zhao Pu. After saying that, he turned around and got ready to leave.
"General, don't worry!"
"If the general attacks Yingtian City, the Chu army will suffer heavy losses. The King of Jin has hundreds of steel cannons lined up on the top of the city, which are extremely powerful. If the Chu army gets close to the city, they will only become cannon fodder."
Zhao Pu's firm voice sounded, and Lu Bu glanced at the top of the city with squinted eyes. At this time, Zhao Kuangyi had ordered a hundred steel cannons to be pushed up, and the muzzles of the cannons were pointed directly at the Chu army below the city.
"Feng Xian, don't be impulsive, and listen to what you have to say!"
When Lu Bu heard Li Jing's voice, he turned around and looked at Zhao Pu, saying: "My Chu army can rescue the Northern Song Dynasty emperor, but I never make a loss-making deal. Sir, let me tell you what benefits my Chu army can have by rescuing the Northern Song emperor!" "
"General, the Chu army has only captured the city passes south of Yingtian City, and more than a hundred cities in the north are still in the hands of the Northern Song Dynasty Empire. Because His Majesty is in prison, the King of Jin has no way to mobilize soldiers and horses in each city."
"But if my emperor escapes from the predicament, he can declare the world to surrender to Chu. Then the Chu army can capture hundreds of cities without a single soldier. This is one of the benefits!"
"Secondly, I have a good grasp of the deployment of the Moon Worshiping Empire's troops in Yingtian City, which can help the Chu army capture Yingtian and minimize losses."
"I wonder if such benefits can tempt the general?"
Zhao Pu's words were not just words. Li Jing, Yang Lin, and Lu Bu were indeed a little tempted. Anyway, they were already determined to win Yingtian City, and rescuing the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty was just a matter of effort. The three of them looked at each other and nodded lightly in unison.
"Okay, I agree to sir's request. Sir, please tell me about the situation in Yingtian City!"
Seeing Li Jing agreeing to rescue Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Pu looked happy and his gloomy eyes flashed with sparkle. Just when he was about to speak, there was a loud bang and everyone followed the sound.
Boom~
Boom~
The loud noise spread, and the Yingtian City Gate was opened, and billows of smoke and dust rushed out, as if a sandstorm set off by the strong wind was about to swallow up the heaven and earth.
"Come here, take your husband with you and come forward with me to take a look at the situation!"
Lü Bu gave the order, turned his horse's head, picked up the reins and patted the horse, and quickly rushed towards the front line of the army. Before the Chu army launched an attack, the enemy troops in the city took the initiative to leave the city. Lü Bu was overjoyed.
How can you refuse them if you send them to your door to seek death?
But then the army rushed out from the city, causing the Chu army to panic.
Boom~
Boom~
The enemy troops rushed out of the city. Every time they took a step forward, the ground trembled slightly, and the mountains shook. Yingtian City seemed to be shaking with a loud noise.
"this............."
"What kind of legion is this? They actually ride on giant elephants!"
Lu Bu looked shocked, his eyes rested on the leading enemy general. The man was two feet long, wearing scales, with two green snakes on his shoulders, holding two steel forks, and his figure exuded a fierce aura. Lu Bu knew this
Breath can only be possessed by those who have truly emerged from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
"Sir, do you know who will be the first to fight in the army coming out of the city?"
Li Jing withdrew his eyes from the army below the city, looked sideways at Zhao Pu, and asked.
"Returning to the general, this man is Wu Tu Gu, the leader of the Ugo Kingdom. He is two feet long. He does not eat grains and feeds on snakes and evil beasts. He has scales on his body and cannot be invaded by swords and arrows."
"The large army under his command is called the "Vine Armor Army". His army is as short as nine feet and has an ugly face that scares everyone who sees it. The barbarian soldiers all use sharp knives and steel forks."
"It is said that there is a first-class vine in the cave of Ugo State, which grows in the mountain stream and is coiled on the stone wall. The Chinese people collected it, soaked it in oil, and then took it out and dried it for half a year. After drying and soaking it for more than ten times, it was finally worn.
Armor. Use one piece each for the chest and back, two pieces for each arm, and make five pieces into a large skirt, making a total of one pair. When worn on the body, it will not sink when crossing a river, and will not get wet with water. It is so light that it cannot be used by swords.
When the crossbows and arrows hit the rattan armor, they could not penetrate it and fell to the ground; they could not penetrate even if they were cut with swords and spears, so they were named "Tengjia Army".
"Three generals, don't underestimate Wu Tu Gu. He is one of the three evil men of the Moon Worshiping Empire and the number one general under the Shenwu War Emperor Gao Huan. His combat power is superior to that of the God of War, Shi Sui."
"Wutugu, one of the three evil men, the Tengjia Army?"
"If they are really invulnerable, I would like to see if their armor is stronger or if my Fang Tian's painted halberd is sharp!"
"The four generals Luo Cheng, Murong Ba, Gao Aocao, and Shi Dakai will obey the order and go with me to meet the Tengjia Army in front of us!"
Lu Bu's eyes flashed fiercely, he tightly grasped Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, slapped his horse with both legs, and charged straight forward, followed closely by the four generals Luo Cheng, Murong Ba, Gao Aocao, and Shi Dakai on both sides.
Under Yingtian City.
The Tengjia army formed a battle formation, with Wutu bones riding giant elephants standing proudly in the center of the army. They wore sun and moon wolf beard hats and golden pearl tassels, with raw scale armor exposed under their ribs. Seeing Lu Bu's five men leading their troops, they rushed forward.
His eyes flashed with light, and his face showed a ferocious smile.
"You came just in time, I will tear him apart!" (To be continued)
