Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3720 Wen Shui Wu Shi
The reason for sending troops to Chang'an this time is at the invitation of the Guanlongmen Clan. In fact, there are different opinions among the clan.

The patriarch, the samurai, thought this was a good opportunity to raise the lintel again, so in addition to the private soldiers raised by the family, he also spent huge sums of money to recruit thousands of idlers from the clan and village, and made up 8000 people in a mess.

Although they are all mobs, and many soldiers are even over fifty years old, old and weak, but the number of people is placed here, and the distance between the marches is also endless for miles. Fighting is still very bluffing.

Changsun Wuji even issued a letter to reward him for it...

However, Wu Yuanzhong's father, Wu Shiyi, believed that the army should not be sent. The Wenshui Wu family relied on funding the emperor Gaozu to raise troops and build a country, and his loyalty to the imperial court Zhengshuo was taken for granted.At present, although the Guanlongmen clan is called "military remonstrance", it is no different from rebellion. It is fine if they are afraid of their own safety and cannot send troops to help the Prince of the East Palace. But if they send troops in response to Changsun Wuji, wouldn't they become traitors?
But the samurai insisted on going his own way, and joined forces with many veteran warriors of the clan to suppress him and force him to agree. This is why this menacing clan sent troops...

Although the Wenshui Wu Clan rose due to the warrior Xun, the head of the family is his elder brother, the warrior Xun, and the warrior Xun died of illness as early as the ninth year of Zhenguan. They help to get by.

Later, Wu Meiniang was given to Fang Jun by His Majesty. Although she was a concubine, she was extremely favored by Fang Junzhi. Even Fang Xuanling looked at her highly and entrusted all the family's properties, so that her status in the Fang family was only in Gaoyang. Under the princess, the power even exceeds.

Later, Fang Jun's navy attacked Annan, and it is said that they occupied several ports and made a lot of money doing business with the Annan people. Wu Meiniang then sent several of her elder brothers and the whole family to Annan, which made the clan very upset. .A bunch of white-eyed wolves, now relying on Fang Jun, a powerful man in the dynasty, only enjoying the blessings of his own brothers, but completely ignoring the elders of the clan, it is too much...

But even so, Wenshui Wu's and Fang's family's in-laws are true. Although Wu Meiniang never protected her natal family, those people outside don't know what happened. As long as they use Fang Jun's banner, there is almost nothing that cannot be done.

The signboard of "Fang's in-laws" is money and power.

Therefore, in Wu Yuanzhong's view, even if the reason for the court's Zhengshuo is not considered, it is not suitable for the Wenshui Wu family to send troops to help Guanlong just because Fang Jun is standing in the East Palace. It's really wrong to focus on Guanlong.

However, as the head of the family, the uncle has a strong word in the clan, and no one can compete. Although Wu Yuanzhong is appointed to be the commander-in-chief of this miscellaneous army, he still has to send his grandson Wu Xixuan as the deputy general and actually supervises. This makes Wu Yuanzhong very special dissatisfied……

Moreover, Wu Xixuan, the son-in-law of the long house, has great ambitions and talents, so ambitious, but in fact he has no ability at all, and is arrogant and arrogant. Even in the army, he has to drink and eat every day. If General Ji Wang doesn't see him, he almost uses a trick to warm the bed. Improper Son of Man.

……

Wu Xixuan was eating meat and drinking wine, squinting at Wu Yuanzhong's stern face, and said with a smile: "Third uncle still can't understand grandfather's intention? Hehe, it is said that third uncle is the most outstanding member of our Wenshui Wu family." My son, but my nephew seems to be nothing more than that."

Wu Yuanzhong was impatient with this useless dude, shook his head, and said slowly: "Fang Jun doesn't want to see our Wenshui Wu family, but the relationship between in-laws is real. As long as Mei Niang is favored all the time, our family's The benefits will continue. But now it is helping outsiders to deal with their relatives. What is the reason? Besides, all the clans in the world are raising troops to help Guanlong. Afterwards, even if Guan Long wins, and our Wenshui Wu family is insignificant, what benefits will we gain? Uncle made a mistake in sending troops this time."

If Guan Long wins, the weak Wenshui Wu clan will not get any benefit at all, and will suffer heavy losses if a war comes; if Dong Gong wins, the Wenshui Wu clan who is not favored by Fang Jun will have no place to stand... ...No matter how it is considered a disadvantage, my uncle was deceived by the big cake painted by Zhangsun Wuji. I really thought that Guanlong's "military remonstrance" was successful, and the Wenshuiwu family would become a powerful family on the same level as Guanzhong's family?

How stupid...

Wu Xixuan's ears were hot from the wine, and he was dissatisfied when he heard the words, so he said displeased with the strength of the wine: "Third Uncle's words are nice, but who in the clan doesn't know what Third Uncle is thinking? Don't you just expect Fang Er to promote you? Did you enter the sixth rate or sixteenth guard of the East Palace? Hehe, naive!"

He breathed out alcohol, pointed at his third uncle, and scolded his aunt drunkenly: "Meiniang, that bitch is just a white-eyed wolf, so hard-hearted! Don't say it's you, even those of hers So what about a real brother? It is said that they are set up in Annan to buy property, but have you received half of the family letters from Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang in the past few years? It is said that they were killed by bandits in Annan. I think this matter is probably not a rumor. As for the bandits... Heh, the whole of Annan is under the control of the navy, so Liu Rengui is like the emperor in Annan. That bandit dares to harm Fang Er's relatives? Most likely, it's just flattery Mother succeeds..."

Although the Wenshui Wu clan rose due to the warrior Xun, the warrior Xun died of illness as early as the ninth year of Zhenguan. This daughter, the clan is clear from top to bottom, there is really no half-brother-sister relationship,

Although some people in the clan were dissatisfied because of this, no one intervened in the end.

Now Wu Meiniang has become Fang Jun's favorite concubine. Although she has no status, her status is not low. Then Liu Rengui was entrusted by Fang Jun's master Jian Ba. If Wu Meiniang asked him to help clean up her brother who has no family affection, how could Liu Rengui refuse ?

Wu Yuanzhong frowned and remained silent.

This matter has been circulated in the family for a long time. It is really unreasonable that Wu Yuanqing's family has not heard anything since they went to Annan. It stands to reason that no matter how good or bad they are, they must send a few letters to the family to describe the current situation, right?However, there was none at all. This family seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and it was inevitable that people would speculate.

Wu Xixuan chattered to himself, with a look of disdain on his face: "Grandfather naturally knows your opinion, third uncle, but he said, your calculation is wrong. Our Wenshui Wu clan is indeed not a big family, and its strength is limited. If Long wins, we won't get any benefits. Once the East Palace wins, we will be even worse... But the question is, is it possible for the East Palace to win? It is absolutely impossible! The children will not be spared, so what's the use of your calculations? The reason we send troops now is not to seek benefits from Guan Long, but to draw a clear line with Fang Jun. After the war, no one will liquidate us .”

Wu Yuanzhong scoffed at this, if he said that at the beginning of the Guanlong incident, he didn't think Donggong had the ability to turn the tide of the battle. After all, Guanlong's aggressive offensive was like a tide at that time, and he had an overall advantage, and Donggong might be overthrown at any time.

However, to this day, the East Palace has resisted Guan Long's offensive time and time again, especially after Fang Jun returned from the Western Regions, the balance of strength between the two sides has undergone earth-shaking changes. The tens of 20 troops were helpless to see it immediately.

Not to mention that there is still the British Duke Li Ji stationed in Tongguan, watching... The situation is no longer what it used to be.

Wu Xixuan wanted to say more, but suddenly stared at the wine glass on the table in front of him with wide eyes, the wine in the glass rippled round and round, from shallow to large, and then, the ground seemed to be shaking slightly under his feet.

Wu Yuanzhong also felt a tremor like an earth dragon turning over, and felt strange, but he had led soldiers to fight in the end, unlike Wu Xixuan, a dude who knew nothing, suddenly reacted and shouted Jump up: "Enemy attack!"

This is the tremor that only occurs when countless horseshoes step on the ground at the same time when the cavalry charges!
With one hand Wu Yuanzhong grabbed the hood around his head and put it on his head, and with the other hand he picked up the horizontal knife placed by the bed, and rushed out of the tent with one stride.

Outside, the entire barracks began to panic, a thunderous cry rolled from far and near, and countless soldiers ran around like headless flies in the camp.

Wu Yuanzhong didn't have time to think about why the scouts didn't warn in advance, he drew out his horizontal knife and chopped up several disorderly soldiers, shouting hoarsely: "Formation to meet the enemy, chaos will kill!"
