Prime Minister take care

Chapter 404
There are eight counties in Liangzhou, and Zhu Zi directly governs three counties.Wuwei City is the capital of Liangzhou and the place where Zhu Zi garrisoned his army.

Wuwei City was huge, with thick and square walls. It usually housed [-] to [-] residents. It was the most important city in the western frontier of the Great Zhou Dynasty.The geographical location of this city is extremely important, as it is at the intersection of the east and west domains.The army from Liangzhou to Yangjueguan will eventually pass through here.

Wuwei City is surrounded by large fields with sufficient water flow, and galloping horses can be seen from time to time.

Several years later, the long-awaited beacon smoke at Yangjue Pass did not panic the people of Wuwei City.In fact, the people of Liangzhou have been accustomed to the tide of wild beasts in spring and autumn for generations.At the most critical time, all the men in Wuwei City over the age of 16 went to Yangjue Pass, leaving only the women and children in the city to maintain production.

However, these few years of leisure have made the elderly people in Wuwei City a little unaccustomed.

Although the war in Yangjue Pass was tight, everything in Wuwei City became orderly.

But all this changed because of the sudden reinforcements.

Zhu Zi left five thousand infantry troops in Wuwei. In addition to guarding the city, the most important thing for these people was to transport supplies and maintain the food road leading to Yangjueguan.Therefore, these five thousand infantry troops are not all stationed in Wuwei City, but are scattered on the grain road.

Zhu Zi's troop dispatch order was issued earlier, the soldiers staying in Wuwei City thought they were reinforcements, they were unprepared, but unexpectedly these reinforcements attacked suddenly.

The originally peaceful morning became anything but peaceful, and the silver-white sword was dyed red with blood.At the gate of Wuwei City, looking at their comrades who were fighting side by side, they suddenly attacked violently. After the initial shock, the soldiers in Wuwei City became filled with overwhelming anger.

"Chen He, He Qi, do you want to rebel?"

The leaders of these rebels were Chen He and He Qi, two military leaders who had been withdrawn from military power by Zhu Zi a few days ago.They were mixed in with these reinforcements, and now they showed off their weapons.

However, facing their former comrades who died at their hands, the two men did not have any guilt on their faces. Instead, they had ferocious smiles on their faces, like beasts bathed in blood.

"How can Zhu Zi, a cold man, be worthy of being a master? We are determined to surrender to Daliang. Those who wish to surrender will immediately put down their weapons. Your majesty is kind and will definitely be promoted to a higher position."

"You are dreaming!"

The people of Liangzhou are so tough, how could they endure this?This group of mighty defenders, even though their own power is weak, will never surrender.

The killing begins here, but not one-sidedly.After the fierce scramble for Wengcheng, the defenders in Wuwei City were almost exhausted. The rebels entered Wuwei smoothly and immediately took control of Zhu Zi's chariot and cavalry general's mansion, granary and arsenal.

As the long sun set in the west, Fang Yuting stood on the wall of Wengcheng, looking at the corpses on the ground, none of them had their backs to him, and he finally sighed in his heart.

It is said that the people of Liangzhou are brave, but to be so brave is really awe-inspiring.

Chen He came behind Fang Yuting and was very respectful to this big shot from the capital city of God.

"Sir, we have completely controlled Wuwei, what should we do next?"

Fang Yuting smiled and said, "Of course I'm waiting for Zhu Zi to come!"

Yang is absolutely closed.

Zhu Zi and Qin Yuan stood on the city wall, facing the wave of barbarian beasts that had paused in their offensive, their faces a little tired.

"What's going on with Meng Xuan?"

Moji Sect is located in Fuyu Mountain and controls another road from the wilderness to Liangzhou.Now that the Moji Sect's realm has been established, it has become the ninth giant after the eight top sects.

The war in Yang Jue Guan was critical, and Zhu Zi planned to ask Meng Xuan for help, asking him to send his disciples to help.

"Meng Xuan has already agreed." Qin Yuan looked at the looming black nightmare in the distance with a worried face, "But the cavalry who just came out of seclusion later reported that there were more demons under the Demon Emperor's command." "What?"

Zhu Zi was also a little surprised. It would take at least three years for the Zhou army to be trained.But why did the demon clan's military strength grow so fast?
"How much more?"

"There are vaguely five or six thousand formless demons, and the figure of the Yuan Demon can be seen among them."

"The methods of the demons are really weird!"

Zhu Zi sighed, but saw the sound of a horn rising from the city gate behind him.

Zhu Zi and Qin Yuan's expressions changed, and they had a vague premonition in their hearts.

The main city of Yangjueguan is behind the nine walls. When Zhu Zi and Qin Yuan returned to the city, they saw a scarred soldier.

"My lord, General Zhenbei, two rebels, Chen He and He Qi, colluded with Liang Jun and captured Wuwei. My subordinates broke out desperately and came here to report the news."

"what?"

Qin Yuan's face was full of disbelief, while Zhu Zi was much calmer.

"What's the situation on the rear now?"

The soldier shook his head and said: "I don't know for sure, but the army that captured Wuwei City was [-]. They killed suddenly, and the brothers were caught off guard, and most of them died in the battle."

Zhu Zi's face darkened and he took a deep breath.

"I see, you go down and rest first!"

"Lord, I must avenge my brothers!"

The sad and angry voice reached Zhu Zi's ears, but Zhu Zi looked even deeper, smiling somewhat self-deprecatingly.

"I thought it would be Yang Xian who took action, but I didn't expect it was Huan Qing."

Zhu Zi had long known the crisis in Liangzhou, but he did not expect it to break out so quickly, let alone in such a way.

The [-]-strong army showed that most of the military leaders from the three eastern counties of Liangzhou participated in this rebellion.To make matters worse, all the military leaders in the three eastern counties rebelled.

The opponent struck so sharply, hitting the vital point without any intention of letting Zhu Zi take a breath, so he should not be underestimated!
"In the past, Huan Wu was unkind, but he finally cared about the world and did not dare to waste his righteousness. But what Huan Qing did is outrageous, how can he be worthy of being a master!"

Qin Yuan's angry voice resounded, and his whole body was shaking with anger.Yang Jueguan is related to the safety of Liangzhou and even the whole world. It's okay if Liang Jun doesn't help.Take action now, if the Yang Jue Pass is broken, the world will be in danger.

"At this point, I can no longer care about so much. The food road has been cut off, and the food and grass in this Yang Jue Pass cannot last for ten days. The only plan now is for me to lead three thousand cavalry back to defend and retake Wuwei City. If the Demon Emperor notices it, If anything goes wrong, I will definitely not miss this opportunity. This matter of Yang Jue depends only on you."

"My lord, the other party is well prepared and may be waiting for my lord to return to the defense. As I say, if the situation is urgent, it is better to ask Yang Xian for help."

Zhu Zi's expression changed, looking at Qin Yuan's sincere face, but he shook his head.

"Liang Jun planned carefully. We didn't notice any trace beforehand. The people behind all this are obviously not ordinary people. If Liang Jun wants to seize Liangzhou, he will definitely be on guard against Yang Xian. I'm afraid that Chengji County has also been captured by now. It has fallen. Even if Yang Xian sends troops at this moment, it will be too late to relieve the danger of Yang Jue. The situation is like this, so we can only give it a try."
