Chapter 67 Borrowing chickens to lay eggs, Wang Yanzhang’s choice!
Mirror Heart Demon watched Li Cunxu leave quietly, then took the reward of silk and said loudly: "Thank you for the reward, Your Highness."
At this time, the actors in the courtyard gathered around Mirror Heart Demon, and someone whispered, "Sir, this matter needs to be reported to the Marshal and His Highness as soon as possible."
Mirror Heart Demon looked calm and said calmly, "Not for now. The Marshal has already anticipated this kind of thing. We can just wait and see what happens. There is no need to get involved."
"Yes!" After the actor left, Jing Xin Mo looked in the direction of Li Cunxu, smacked his lips, and sighed, "What a pity, he is destined not to be of any use to the Marshal!"
……
Daliang, Shanzhou.
After the Luoyang Incident, the three thousand iron spear soldiers under Wang Yanzhang followed Wang Yanzhang out of Luoyang and came to Shanzhou.
"General, there is still no news about the whereabouts of our lady and her group. We can't contact the brothers who left with her at the beginning." Zhou Li said to Wang Yanzhang with a fist salute.
Wang Yanzhang frowned and asked, "Have you found the bad people from Shanzhou?"
Wang Yanzhang's wife, Lu, and his family followed the bad guys out of Luoyang City, but as soon as they left Luoyang, Zhou Li discovered that all the marks left by their Iron Spear Army brothers along the way in Shanzhou had disappeared, as if someone had directly erased their existence. This made Wang Yanzhang very miserable. After leaving Luoyang, he had lost hope in Daliang, but now it seemed that he had fallen into another vortex.
"The Bad Guy, Li Xingyun!"
Wang Yanzhang gritted his teeth, he didn’t know what Li Xingyun was going to do!
call……
Sighing a sigh, Wang Yanzhang forced himself to calm down. The most likely thing to happen now was that Li Xingyun would use his family to threaten him to work for the restoration of Tang. Thinking of this, his wife and children should be fine now. Wang Yanzhang knew his abilities and role. As long as Li Xingyun still needed him, he would never take action against them in advance!
Now that he knew what he was facing, Wang Yanzhang felt more at ease. However, the feeling of being controlled by others still made him uncomfortable. He didn't expect that Li Xingyun, a descendant of the Li Tang Dynasty, was actually a villain who was good at scheming and plotting!
At this moment, a cry of surprise came from outside the house, "General, Madam and the others are back!"
Wang Yanzhang was startled, and then he felt his face burning, but he didn't care about anything else at this time. He quickly walked out of the house with Zhou Li, and sure enough, he saw Lu's group coming in from outside the door.
"Wise." With tears in her eyes, Lu threw herself into Wang Yanzhang's arms. Wang Yanzhang breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back.
At this moment, Wang Yanzhang's eyes suddenly became stern, and he looked towards the direction of the gate, where several figures were standing. They were wearing leather armor, long swords on their waists, wearing bamboo hats on their heads, and ghost masks on their faces.
"Bad people?" Wang Yanzhang's expression became serious, and he protected Lu behind him. The leader of the bad people laughed and said, "General Wang, our prince said that if you employ people, you must trust them. It's up to you to choose!"
Whoosh!
After the bad guy finished speaking, he threw out a secret letter. Wang Yanzhang reached out and grabbed the secret letter. Then he bowed to the bad guys and said, "Thank you for sending my family here!"
"No need to thank me, we are just following orders. If you want to thank someone, thank your highness."
Whoosh!Whoosh!
After the words fell, several bad guys turned around and left. Wang Yanzhang couldn't help but feel a little emotional at this time. He sent people to search for the bad guys in Shanzhou for many days but couldn't find any trace of them. Now they appeared in front of him in broad daylight. The bad guys of the Tang Dynasty really lived up to their reputation!
After settling his family, Wang Yanzhang also brought a group of confidants to the study. Wow, Wang Yanzhang immediately opened the secret letter he had just received from the bad guys, and then his eyes widened instantly.
"What's wrong, General?" Zhou Li couldn't help but ask, but he saw Wang Yanzhang gather his inner strength and burn the secret letter in his hand in an instant, narrowing his eyes and saying: "What a Li Xingyun, what a descendant of Li Tang, pass my order, we will go back to Luoyang!" "Go back to Luoyang?" Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, and said in confusion: "General, Daliang treats you like this, why do you want to go back? With your ability, there is no place in the world that is not your place to stay?"
Wang Yanzhang watched the secret letter in his hand turn into ashes and slowly dissipate. With a complicated look in his eyes, he said, "It's not me who wants to go back, it's him who wants me to go back!"
"Li Xingyun?" Zhou Li's face changed. He couldn't understand why. Didn't Li Xingyun send someone to escort his wife out of the city for the loyalty of their general? But what did he mean now? He asked their general to return to Luoyang? Did he want them to be the insider? No, that's how it works? He just dealt with the Xuanming Sect, and now he's doing it again?
Zhou Li was able to be Wang Yanzhang's deputy, so he must be quite smart. He probably guessed Wang Yanzhang's intention of returning to Luoyang. At this time, Wang Yanzhang also said, "He wants me to use Daliang's national strength to train him a cavalry. He is not afraid that I will not agree to his request."
Zhou Li smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said, "General, since you have said this, it means that Li Xingyun has calculated that you will not refuse."
Yes, Wang Yanzhang is a loyal and righteous man. This time, Li Xingyun not only saved his life, but also saved his whole family. How can Wang Yanzhang repay such a great kindness?
"Alas, it's a good thing that Li Xingyun and I didn't communicate in Chaoyuan Hall, otherwise it would be difficult for me to return to Luoyang. I heard that the Ghost King appeared in the world. That guy is not easy to deal with."
Wang Yanzhang had seen the Ghost King's strength, which was far superior to his. He was a top-notch master in the world. When he went to Luoyang this time, he might have to fight against him, so he had to be careful in everything he did.
"Let's go to Luoyang!"
……
Wugong County!
"General Qian, the Qi army is already at the gates of the city. When will the reinforcements from Luoyang arrive?"
The magistrate of Wugong County looked at the general in front of him anxiously. Such a big event had just happened in Luoyang. His Majesty was attacked and killed, and the Emperor Ming of Xuanming Sect was killed. Today's Daliang is in disarray. No one has claimed to be the emperor, which means that there is no one in Luoyang to issue orders to various parts of Daliang. Daliang at this time is undoubtedly going to have a short period of weakness.
General Qian shouted coldly, "Why panic? In less than three days, reinforcements will arrive from Luoyang. Lord Ghost King has sent a message that the situation in Luoyang has stabilized, and His Royal Highness Prince Jun has also arrived safely in Luoyang. You and I only need to defend the city for three days, and then someone will come to deal with the Qi army!"
At this time, a general of the Qi army was challenging the enemy at the foot of Wugong County.
"Qian Xiong, why don't you open the gate and surrender quickly? Your emperor Zhu Wen was killed like a pig or a dog in Luoyang. What are you still resisting for? You, Daliang, are finished!"
At this time, the sound of the Qi army's drums was like thunder, and the loud-voiced Qi soldiers shouted in unison towards Wugong City: "Daliang is finished! Daliang is finished!"
This is also a common tactic used when attacking a city, to stimulate the enemy to fight outside the city and wait for an opportunity to attack the city. However, although the generals of the Liang army can hardly read, they are all experienced people who have survived the fighting in the meat grinder of the battlefield. How could they be affected by this kind of provocation?
"Give me my bow." Qian Xiong snorted. Although he didn't plan to leave the city, he didn't want to let the people under the city have an easy time.
Draw the bow and draw the arrow, whoosh!
With one arrow, the arm of the Qi army's general who was challenging the enemy was hit.
Suddenly, the Liang troops defending the city became excited and shouted loudly.
This is the role of a general on the battlefield. Just one simple thing can greatly boost the morale of your own army!
