Zhenwu Tianxia: Summon Yuwen Chengdu at the beginning

Chapter 117

Just as Qin Wei expected, when the news spread that he had taken over the Anning Guard Division and Xin'an Fucheng, those traitors hidden in the officialdom also took action.

Wudong Weisi is the southernmost Weisi yamen among the six Weisi in Shu Prefecture.

Inside the yamen of the Wudong Wei Division, Commander Yang Luzheng sat in the main hall with his brows furrowed.

Below the main hall, Li Xing, who was wearing a white gown, squinted at the letter in his hand.

Li Xing is the elder of Wushan Palace in Yunzhou. He is over 60 years old and has a ninth-rank cultivation. The letter in his hand was sent from Shuzhou City.

"My lord, the method of the Xin'an County King is really extraordinary!"

Li Xing squeezed the letter in his hand and said thoughtfully.

Yang Lu has never met Qin Wei, but he is no stranger to Qin Wei, or most of the officials and warriors in Dali have heard of Qin Wei.

After all, Qin Wei is no longer unknown. On the contrary, with the establishment of the Wusi of Tianzhou Town, Qin Wei's reputation has spread throughout Dali.

"Master Tang means that we should raise the flag to respond to Lord Hou! What do you think?" Yang Lu asked.

Raising the flag means that they will fully express the fact that they are rebellious, and there is no room for retreat.

Although Yang Lu joined Marquis Chang Ping a long time ago, he also expected that Marquis Chang Ping would rebel one day, but until now, he still feels scared in his heart.

Rebellion, that is to punish the nine clans.

If he still had a choice, he might change his mind now, but unfortunately he was too deeply involved with Chang Pinghou, and he had no chance to choose again.

In contrast, Li Xing did not have these worries and worries.

They Wushan Palace were not Dali's loyal ministers, even before Dali promulgated the Martial Order, they were a group of rebels who occupied the mountain as king.

It was only later that Emperor Li promulgated the Martial Order and gave them a chance to be upright, so they restrained a little. After all, they also wanted to rely on the privilege of the Martial Order to gain benefits among the people.

But in fact, even after the promulgation of the Martial Arts Order, they still did not change the essence of occupying the mountain as king.

Li Xing smiled lightly and said, "Since it's Mr. Tang's intention, we will obey."

"But once we raise the flag, we will definitely become the target of Prince Xin'an." Yang Lu said a little nervously.

"We are in the south of Shu, and the king of Xin'an County is still in the east of Shu. He can't do anything to us in a short time."

"And as long as we raise the flag, other people will also respond. By then, the entire Shu Prefecture will be surrounded by rebels, so why should we be afraid of the King of Xin'an County!" Li Xing said with a smile.

In his opinion, it is not of much use for the king of Xin'an County to come to Shuzhou, because they have already controlled a lot of military power in Shuzhou. As long as all these military powers are converted into rebels, then Shuzhou will be in their pocket.

The king of Xin'an County has only [-] soldiers, and the number of soldiers of the Anning Guards is only [-], which can't change the situation in Shuzhou at all.

"My lord, Lord Hou is still waiting for your loyalty!"

Seeing that Yang Lu was still hesitating, Li Xing said softly.

Yang Lu's expression changed slightly, he took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "I know!"

He has no way out, so he can only follow Changping Hou to Hei.

There is no point in hesitating, it is better to make a decision early and give up early.

And following Yang Lu's decision, there was a bloodbath immediately in the Wudong Wei Division.

Although he has absolute control over Wudong Weisi, it is inevitable that there are still some stubborn people, so he can only ruthlessly eliminate these stubborn people.

In the 45th year of Wude, the second day of February.

Under the leadership of Yang Lu, Wudong Weisi officially joined the Yunzhou Rebel Army in response to Chang Pinghou.

And with Yang Lu's raising of the flag, Shuzhou fell into chaos.

Within the various divisions of David, many officials followed closely, killing Shangguan, seizing military power, occupying cities, and plundering wealth.

For a time, wars ignited all over Shuzhou.

Even the city of Shuzhou was not spared.

……

On the city wall of Shuzhou.

Liu Yuanrang was wearing iron armor and holding a spear, standing on the top of the city gate, looking down at the city with a gloomy expression.

At this time, the city of Shuzhou was completely in chaos, and a large number of rebellious officials and thieves were making chaos everywhere in the city. The Dusi Yamen, the Chief Secretary Yamen, and the Chasi Yamen all ignited fires.

Billowing thick smoke covered the sky and blocked out the sun, turning this bustling and bustling city into a hell.

"My lord, it's not good, the officials of the chief secretary's office are attacking our warehouse."

Tang Mingcheng, the commander of the capital, ran over in a hurry and shouted loudly.

Liu Yuanrang's expression changed.

"not good!"

There is not only a lot of money and food in the warehouse of the Dusi Yamen, but also a lot of bows and crossbows. If these government servants get bows and crossbows, their combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.

"Liu Fu, follow me to the warehouse!" Liu Yuanrang shouted anxiously.

Afterwards, he hurried towards the warehouse with hundreds of soldiers.

When he resisted the warehouse, he saw a large group of people besieging the warehouse.

"kill!"

he shouted sharply.

With a long gun in hand, take the lead.

However, before he rushed to the warehouse door, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling chill behind his back.

Instinctively, he turned slightly sideways.

Puchi!

A silver-white gun tip pierced his shoulder.

"Master!" Liu Fu turned pale with shock.

Hastily stepped forward and chopped off the spear.

Liu Yuanrang looked back at the owner of the long spear, with an incredulous look in his eyes.

"How could it be you?"

The owner of the spear is none other than Tang Mingcheng.

Among the many officials in the Dusi yamen, Liu Yuanrang was the least suspicious of Tang Mingcheng, because Tang Mingcheng was born in Wushanghou's mansion, and his elder brother was Wushanghou Tang Mingyue.

"Could it be Wu Shanghou too!" Liu Yuanrang didn't dare to think about it.

"Hahaha, how come? My elder brother is stubborn, how could he betray His Majesty Lihuang?" Tang Mingcheng smiled wildly.

"But he doesn't want to betray, so I'll help him betray!"

"You!" Liu Yuanrang pointed at him, his face pale.

"Liu Yuanrang, you can't blame me for this. You can only blame you for not coming to Shuzhou! Don't worry, I will give you a good time." Tang Mingcheng said.

"Take him!"

I saw him waving his hand and pointing at Liu Yuanrang, and behind him a group of officials of the Chief Secretary pointed at Liu Yuanrang with crossbow arrows in their hands.

It turned out that he had already occupied the warehouse of the capital secretary's office, and even gave all the bows and crossbows in the warehouse to the chief secretary's office.

Let Liu Yuanrang come here just to kill Liu Yuanrang.

Liu Yuanrang looked up at the arrows shining with cold light, and the pupils in his eyes suddenly shrank.

Because he saw a person behind the Chief Secretary Yamen.

Cheng Yu, the governor of Shu Prefecture.

Even the chief envoy is from the Marquis of Changping!
"why!"

Liu Yuanrang didn't understand.

He couldn't understand why Cheng Yu and Tang Mingcheng chose to betray Da Li.

But at this time no one can answer his doubts.

There was a sharp piercing sound, and a large number of arrows flew towards him.

Liu Yuanrang couldn't help but fell into despair.

He didn't expect the result to be like this.

He thought he could defend Shuzhou City, but he didn't expect that he would be buried here in the end.

"Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent!"

Liu Yuanrang felt powerless.

His time in Shuzhou was too short, so short that he didn't grasp the specific situation of Shuzhou City at all.He didn't even have time to cultivate his own lineage.

da da da~~
There was a sudden clatter of horseshoes.

"Damn the traitor!"

A heroic roar sounded from behind Liu Yuanrang, and the next moment a door panel fell in front of Liu Yuanrang.

Aggressive~~
The arrows landed on the door.

Liu Yuanrang was in a daze.

He looked back blankly.

I saw a white-haired old man galloping forward on horseback. The old man was holding a Crescent Moon Knife, and his gray beard fluttered in front of his chest.

In the blink of an eye, the old man came to Liu Yuanrang and slashed at Tang Mingcheng.

Boom~~
In a hurry, Tang Mingcheng could only raise the gun in his hand to block.

However, the next moment, the barrel of the gun in his hand was cut off, and his whole body flew backwards like a cannonball.

"Master Liu, let's go!"

The old man shouted anxiously.

Liu Yuanrang suddenly came back to his senses, but smiled helplessly.

"Master Ji, thank you!"

The old man in front of him is Ji Fei, the commander of the capital.

Ji Fei had served as a commander in Shuzhou for ten years. Liu Yuanrang thought that Ji Fei should be the person most likely to be bribed by Changping Hou.

At this time Liu Yuanrang was full of bitterness, the person he doubted was a loyal minister of the court, but the person he did not suspect became a traitor.He even wondered if he was really incompetent.

But now is obviously not the time to care about these things.

"go!"

"Lord Liu, Shuzhou City can't be defended anymore, withdraw from the east gate!" Ji Fei reminded while resisting the incoming arrows.

Liu Yuanrang didn't say much, and fled towards the east gate with a group of remnants.

Only then did Tang Mingcheng get up from the ground, and he looked at Ji Fei with dark eyes.

"Ji Fei, you old bastard, damn it!"

"Hahaha, if this old man is ten years younger, I will cut off your head!"

"Tang Mingcheng, let's meet again in the future!"

Ji Fei didn't say much, seeing that Liu Yuanrang had gone away, he didn't bother anymore, turned around and ran away.

He comes fast and goes fast.

A door panel saved Liu Yuanrang's life, and Tang Mingcheng was seriously injured by a knife attack.

"What are you still doing in a daze, chase after me!"

Tang Mingcheng roared angrily.

The originally perfect plan completely failed because of Ji Fei.

The point is that Ji Fei actually mocked him.

Unfortunately, no matter how annoyed he was, Ji Fei had already run away.

……

Outside the city of Shuzhou.

Liu Yuanrang stood beside the official road in embarrassment, and he was relieved to see that there were no pursuers behind him.

"Master Ji, thank you for saving your life!"

He thanked Ji Fei again.

Ji Fei sighed melancholy: "It's too early to save lives, let's think about how to explain to His Majesty."

As the commanders and commanders of the Dusi Yamen, they abandoned the city and fled, which was enough to make them lose their heads.

Liu Yuanrang was full of decadence, "Why is this happening?"

Ji Fei shook his head slightly, "Lord Liu, Marquis Changping has been operating in Shuzhou for nearly ten years!"

"Almost all officials, big and small, in Shuzhou have received the favor of the Marquis of Changping. They have already boarded the thief ship of the Marquis of Changping, and it is difficult to think about it now."

"But Tang Ming will rebel no matter what?" This is what Liu Yuanrang can't understand the most.

Ji Fei was silent for a while, and said: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite! Tang Mingcheng is an ambitious man, he doesn't care about Wushanghou's residence at all. He even wishes that Wushanghou's residence will be finished."

"So he is dissatisfied with Wu Shanghou?" Liu Yuanrang asked.

"I don't know, but the relationship between him and Marquis Wushang's residence seems to have been bad." Ji Fei said.

Liu Yuanrang smiled bitterly.

It doesn't seem to make much sense to study these now.

He looked at the soldiers around him, and the bitterness in his eyes became more intense.

Of the eight thousand city guards, only more than 300 people escaped in the end, and he couldn't take care of the rest.

"Hey, what should we do next?"

"What else can I do, go find Prince Xin'an!" Ji Fei said as a matter of course.

"It seems that Mr. Ji has already planned everything." Liu Yuanrang looked at him with some surprise.

Ji Fei laughed, "Lord Liu, I have been in Shuzhou for ten years."

"Could it be that Mr. Ji knew that Marquis Changping would rebel? Then why didn't he report to the court in advance?" Liu Yuan asked.

Ji Fei shook his head and said, "Why didn't the old man report it, it's just that no one believed it."

Before Qin Wei found out that there was a problem with the Imperial City Division, who would have thought that Marquis Chang Ping would rebel?

In fact, Ji Fei didn't think Chang Pinghou would rebel at first, but his performance in Shuzhou's officialdom these years made him feel very wrong, so he felt that Chang Pinghou had a different heart.

It's just that he doesn't have clear evidence in his hand, so even the above report is useless.

He might even be charged with framing Xungui.

Therefore, he could only remind Chaotang in a more obscure way, but unfortunately neither Lihuang nor Chaotang understood what he meant.

"Let's go, let's go to Xin'anfu City first, with His Highness the Prince of the County here, we will definitely take back Shuzhou City!"

Ji Fei said confidently.

Although his official position is lower than Liu Yuanrang's, his character is more tenacious than Liu Yuanrang's, and his understanding of Shuzhou is deeper than Liu Yuanrang's.

Don't look at Tang Mingcheng and the others who have already occupied Shuzhou City, but in his opinion, Tang Mingcheng's treacherous plan will not succeed.
