Prime Minister take care

Chapter 406
Wuwei, the palace of the chariot and cavalry general.

In the dim light of the morning, Zhu Zi glanced tiredly at the plaque on the house. It was the same as before, and it seemed that not much had changed.

It took him three days to return with three thousand Xiliang cavalry, but what was waiting for him was not Liang Jun, but an unattended city.

"Lord, we have already inquired about the people in the city. The [-] rebels who captured Wuwei City at that time immediately divided their troops and left the city after capturing the city. The small number of remaining troops also withdrew one after another last night. Chen He, He Qi’s two traitors have no trace of them.”

"How are the supplies in the warehouse?"

"The minister has checked the treasury, and the food, grass, and military equipment have not been moved."

After regaining control of Wuwei City, Zhu Zi was not happy at all.This was especially true after hearing that the materials in the treasury were intact.

Zhu Zi seemed to feel that he was being manipulated by a huge hand invisibly, and the man behind Liang Jun controlled everything accurately.

Including the time when Zhu Zi's reinforcements arrived, the time when the rebels evacuated, the stock of grain and grass in Yangjue Pass, and Zhu Zi's reaction after regaining Wuwei.Minute by cent, no difference at all.

Zhu Ziming knew this, but had to follow his plan.

The Yang Jue Pass was broken and the demons and barbaric beasts entered Liangzhou, which was not in Zhu Zi's interests, and naturally it was not in Liang Jun's interests either.

Therefore, the rebels left behind food, grass and weapons, so that Zhu Zi could have enough ability to temporarily maintain the situation when he regained his military power, and at the same time, it also weakened the forces around him.

Zhu Zi still doesn't know what the man behind the scenes wants to do next, but his premonition is not good.

"Where's Yang Xian?"

"The situation ahead is unclear, but it is said that Liang General Huan Zishan led [-] troops, captured Guoting, and garrisoned at Longdaokou, Chengji County."

"Organize manpower immediately to transport food and grass to Yangjue Pass."

"Yes!"

There are only eight days of food and grass left in Yang Jue Pass.Zhu Zi led the Xiliang cavalry and traveled day and night. They arrived in Wuwei in the early morning of the third day, but the convoy transporting grain did not have such speed.

Because of the rebels, the originally transported grain and fodder convoy had been delayed for a long time, and there was no room for delay.

Zhu Zi entered the house of General Chariot and Cavalry. The house was empty and there was no one there. It was obvious that he was either killed by the rebels or captured by them, and his end was not much better.

Zhu Zi's wife died young and he had no children.Among the younger generation of Liangzhou Army, the person he is most optimistic about is Qin Feng.It's a pity that Qin Feng was abducted by Yang Xian.

In this familiar yet unfamiliar mansion of the Chariot and Cavalry General, Zhu Zi looked at the main hall built on a one-foot high platform, and suddenly felt a little lonely. He didn't know what to do.
Zhu Zi walked up the stone steps and sat at the door of the main hall, relieving the fatigue accumulated from the long journey.

The whole city suddenly came to life. The three thousand Xiliang cavalry were very efficient. It only took one morning to load a large amount of food, medicinal herbs, armaments and other materials onto the vehicle and prepare them for escort.

"Lord, we are ready."

Zhu Zi raised his lowered head and opened his eyes.

"You lead a thousand cavalry to escort these supplies to Yang Jue Pass as soon as possible."

"But my lord, just two thousand cavalry are too weak to maintain the might of the army. Otherwise, I will organize the people in the city to escort me!"

Zhu Zi shook his head and said: "It will take at least half a day to organize the people in the city. Besides, the people are marching slowly, and the escort time will be prolonged. Now the war situation in Yangjue Pass is urgent, and supplies cannot be delayed. Remember, no matter what, , have to send this batch of supplies to Yangjueguan.”

Having said this, Zhu Zi's eyes became very firm and he took out a bamboo tube from his sleeve.

"Send a letter to Eagle, ask Yang Xian for help, and invite him to lead the army to help."

"I obey!" A thousand Xiliang cavalry escorted the supplies out of the city gate, and the cavalry general became desolate again.

The two thousand Xiliang cavalry brought by Zhu Zi did not defend the city, and he had no intention of using them to defend the city. While the one thousand cavalry set off to escort the grain and grass, Zhu Zi sent the remaining cavalry out of the city to inquire around.

The final information obtained was that there was no trace of Liang Jun within a thirty-mile radius of Wuwei City.

In other words, Wuwei has indeed become an empty city now.However, Zhu Zi did not believe that the people behind Liang Jun would give up.

The crisis came quietly, and just as the long sun was setting in the west and about to enter the sky, a man appeared in front of Zhu Zi in the residence of General Chariot and Cavalry.

Fang Yuting!
A person who was unexpected but should appear within reason.

Before the main hall of Cheqi General's Mansion, Zhu Zi looked at Fang Yuting who was holding a blue lantern.

"Did you do all this?"

"No, I'm just one of the pawns."

Fang Yuting said honestly that he still had three respects in his heart for Zhu Zi, the famous cavalry general in the Western Frontier.

"Other than you among Liang Jun, who else has such means?"

Zhu Zi murmured, seeming to be questioning or reflecting.

"Chang Yu?"

Fang Yuting smiled and said: "General Chariot and Cavalry, it is useless to say this now. In this plan, you must die!"

Zhu Zi stood up and spoke slowly.

"Indeed, if Liang Jun wants to take control of Liangzhou, they must get rid of me. Otherwise, you will not be able to force the elites of Liangzhou to surrender at Yang Jue Pass. But, do you alone have the qualifications?"

As Zhu Zi stood up, his entire aura changed.Holding the Purple Tassel Star Spear in his hand, Zhu Zi is no longer the sad and sad cavalry general just now, but the best grand master in the world.

Within the four seas, there are few opponents.

"Based on me, I'm naturally not qualified. But, do you think I'm the only one this time?"

As Fang Yuting finished speaking, more than 20 figures appeared one after another around the empty main hall.Among them, the rebel generals Chen He and He Qi were among them.

"Yu Yu, Ouyang Jian, Feng Zhengyin, Chunyu Wuxing. There are a total of 23 great masters here. Fang Yuting, you really think highly of me!"

"These are originally prepared for Yang Chun. Different from the time in Shendu, this time we are fully prepared. But before that, we have to send you to hell first."

"Is it?"

Zhu Zi's momentum surged, his body was as fast as lightning, and he killed Chen He with one shot.

The spear pierced Chen Ho's throat, thick blood dripped down, but Zhu Zi only had a smile on his face.Harvesting the life of this traitor was nothing more than a small effort for Zhu Zi.

"It would be an honor for Zhu Zi to be the vanguard for Captain Yang Chun. If you want to take my life, it depends on whether you have this ability."

In the huge mansion, the only sound left was He Qi's frightened voice.Including Fang Yuting, the 23 great masters watched all this indifferently.
