After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 397 Changes in the New City
When Bo Pi heard this, he rolled his eyes and thought about it, so he immediately bowed and saluted Fu Chai.

"Your Majesty, since this is the case, the only thing we can do now is to resort to military tactics. We might as well use our strategy."

Having said that, he didn't continue to talk, Fu Chai immediately reacted, waved his hand to make the Marquis retreat, and asked.

"I don't know what method you are talking about?"

At this time, Bo Pi sighed softly, with a look of unwillingness on his face, and then he spoke.

"Na Mengdi's army always likes to be unexpected in battle, so we can't follow his ideas. Now that Zhongwu City has been attacked, we can't directly rescue it. Now we should rush to Xincheng first and make a rescue move."

"Presumably Mengdi will take the opportunity to escape when he gets the news. At that time, we will directly attack Zhongcheng. This is a new city, and Han has also invested a lot of financial and material resources. They will definitely not watch us destroy this city. of."

"At that time, we will send someone to notify General Shouyu Yao to lead his troops back to Helu City immediately. At that time, the king will just bluff his gun and go directly south. If this is the case, Han's plan will come to nothing."

After hearing this idea, Fu Chai's heart was full of unwillingness. Wu Guo had prepared for such a long time, and originally wanted to take down Han Guo in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect that it would end in such a way that it ended in anticlimax.

How can he be at ease?But now that Chen He's army has arrived at Liuhe City, if he does not return to Helu City to prepare for the battle, who knows what will happen in the future?
Although Helu City has been repaired for so many years, it is already unbreakable, but the Han army has a bed crossbow, which is a new type of siege weapon. If the opponent is allowed to attack, Fu Chai has no confidence that the prince can defend it. .

This kind of contradictory psychology made it difficult for him to make a decision. After thinking twice, he sighed heavily and said.

"I really didn't expect my dignified Wu Jun to fall to such a point. It's really aggrieved. Well, let's avoid the edge this time and wait until we have a chance in the future to get it back."

After finishing speaking, Fu Chai did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops to move towards the new city. After the military marquis of the Han Kingdom discovered Wu Jun's movements, they immediately went to the city to report to Ji Ran.

But Ji Ran frowned and thought for a while, then called Wu Ping in front of him, and gave orders.

"Now that the Wu army has retreated, according to the original plan, the old man will lead his troops to chase after him, so you must defend Tancheng no matter what, and don't go out to fight in waves. If you find any changes, you should report them in time."

There was no way around this. Now that he didn't have the right manpower in his hands, Wu Ping became the only choice. He was mainly worried that Wu Jun would suddenly turn around and fight back at this time.

The main reason is that Zhongwu City was not won, so a lot of variables were added, and Ji Ran had to be careful.

After arranging the matter, Ji Ran first sent the army chief to investigate Wu Jun's movements, and after half a day, he took [-] infantry troops directly out of the city, but what he didn't expect was that Wu Jun didn't go directly to Zhong Wu, but entered the city. new town.

This move made him feel a little puzzled, and at the same time realized that some unexpected changes might have taken place.

So Ji Ran immediately sent someone to inform Meng Di to lead his army to stop, because before such a big battle, if he did not make a comprehensive plan and take the initiative to attack, it is very likely that the battle situation will become unknown.

After receiving the news, Mengdi also felt a little strange. He immediately led the cavalry to retreat and moved towards the new city, but he didn't get too close. He needed to know what Wu Jun would do next.

However, in the new city at this time, there was also a dark tide. Many wealthy families and merchants in the city felt sad when they saw this situation. At first, many people thought that Wu Jun's arrival would definitely be as powerful as a broken bamboo.

After all, for so many years, the Wu army has destroyed countless countries. In their impression, it is an unrivaled existence. No one thought that the battle against Han would lead to such a result. Pixian was lost not long after it started.

Although it was said that it was recaptured later, the result was unsuccessful, and there was an emergency military situation. No matter how you look at it, it was because Wu Jun had completely fallen into the trap of the Han Dynasty, but at this time, rumors suddenly spread in the city.

It is said that Chen He of Pengcheng has led an army not far from Helu City, and the news spread only after King Fuchai of Wu entered the city. back road.

King Wu Fucha also did not expect such rumors to appear at such a critical time, and the other party can say so with certainty, it can only explain one problem, there are spies from the Han Kingdom in the new city.

This made Fu Chai extremely angry, and immediately ordered to start searching the city for those who spread rumors, and if caught, they would be killed without mercy.

Man is a kind of strange animal. He can receive a lot of rumors and gossips in his life. If the person concerned has no reaction, that’s all. Over time, such rumors will gradually fade out of people’s lives.

But once the person involved has any reaction, people will have a strange guess, that is, is the rumor true?Therefore, the current action of Wu Wang Fucha has made the rumors spread more and more widely.

After catching hundreds of people and killing them, panic finally arose in the new city, so on the third night after Fu Chai, the king of Wu, entered the city, someone in the new city finally couldn't hold back and launched a riot.

This kind of grievance has a long history. When the Han Kingdom ruled Xincheng, they always followed the rules. The merchants who came here to do business were used to it, but since the Wu Kingdom took over, none of these rules worked.

It can be said that everything in the new city is decided by the city guard alone. Under this situation, people who are closer to the city guard will get more benefits, but such people are destined to be a minority.

The interests of most people have been violated, so this resentment has been simmering in their hearts for a long time, and the current situation does not seem to be good for Wu Guo. Fight for a future.

It was night, fires were ignited everywhere in the new city, after the military marquis got the news, he flew his horse back immediately, Meng Di was also overjoyed, it seemed that the successor he had arranged had finally seen the effect, and immediately ordered someone to report Ji Ran, At the same time into the new city.
