Chapter 155: The Oath of Duty
Li Yun knew what he was doing, and he knew that once he took this step, there would be no way back. Although he has been mentally prepared for a long time, he has been working hard for this.
But now, when I really want to take this step, I can't help but feel a trace of confusion and fear in my heart.
"Dash...... Da ...... Da ......"
At this moment, there was a crisp sound of footsteps, and Li Yun immediately looked up and found that the person who came turned out to be Yayu!
I saw Yayu wearing a well-fitting military uniform, and his heroic appearance almost stunned Li Yun, and he couldn't help blurting out, "Yayu, you are ......?"
And Yayu pulled her hair together and smiled: "Of course I went with you, just rely on your three-legged cat's kung fu to let people slaughter it as soon as you go to the battlefield!" β
"Uh......h Little Fish Fish! I knew you wouldn't leave me alone. Li Yun couldn't help but be moved when he heard this.
As he spoke, Li Yun pounced and held Yayu in his arms and ravaged him for a while.
Although Li Yun took the Wind King Divine Jade, because of the wrong way to take it, most of the Yuan Spiritual Qi contained in the Wind King Divine Jade was actually absorbed by Yayu. But even so, Li Yun's physique and strength are not what they used to be, and he can barely be regarded as a third-rate Shinto monk.
"Ahh I'm going to die! Watch my hair! I saw Yayu glaring at Li Yun and scolded.
"Hee-hee-hee......"
"Hehe......"
The appearance of the two fooling around caused the other three girls to cover their mouths and chuckle.
Then the three girls entered the back hall together, and after a while, they came out together in heroic and capable military uniforms.
Li Yun looked back and asked with some curiosity, "When were your military uniforms made?" β
I saw Feng Wanzhu turn white, and Li Yun said, "Master, didn't you make this military uniform for us?" β
"I know, I mean, what are you doing in military uniforms?"
"We're going out with our master!" The four girls said in unison when they heard this.
At this time, Yayu chuckled and said, "What if we don't go and you are slaughtered?" β
As soon as Yayu finished speaking, Li Yun remembered that the four women were not vases, they were powerful monks who couldn't even compare to most men.
These days, Li Yun has always regarded the four girls as secretaries and maids, and for a while he actually forgot the origin of the four girls.
And after a frolic with the four daughters, Li Yun's mood couldn't help but relax a lot. Although his strength is weaker than that of a woman, he is a little embarrassed, but Li Yun has a very good face and never cares about this.
"Let's go!"
Then Li Yun shouted arrogantly, and then went out with a determined expression.
When I walked out of the office, I saw that the night sky outside was lit red by torches. The soldiers of the Suzaku Army stood neatly on the school ground, and the appearance of swords and guns flying like forest flags was very shocking. Especially between the solemn eyebrows of the Suzaku Army, there was a solemn aura.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, Li Yun ascended to the rostrum in the center of the school field.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Li Yun couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, but he knew that there was no room for hesitation now.
So Li Yun deliberately bit the tip of his tongue and drove away the tension in his heart with severe pain.
Then he glanced at everyone without fear, and his determined eyes looked at everyone's faces, and then he shouted, "Brothers! Before joining the Vermilion Bird Army, you were farmers, craftsmen, rangers, and sect disciples! But at this moment, you all have only one identity, and that is the Suzaku Army soldiers! β
After a heroic preaching, Li Yun couldn't help but find a feeling.
"And today we are all gathered for the same purpose, which is to overthrow this decaying empire and build a new world!"
"We! It will surely create new history! As he spoke, Li Yun pulled out the saber in his hand.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! β
The soldiers of the Suzaku Army also raised their weapons at the same time, their faces full of hysterical madness.
Waving his hand to signal the soldiers to calm down, Li Yun immediately began to give orders, "Luo Li! β
"The last general!"
"Order your troops to set off first to open the way for the army, and target Ruzhou City!"
"No!"
"Zhao Xin, Hou San!"
"The last general!"
"The two of you will immediately go out of the mountain and capture Lianshan County and Lincheng County overnight!"
"No!"
Xu Tianhua! β
"The last general!"
"The rest of the troops directly under the military department will immediately set off to attack Ruzhou in Changping County!"
"No!"
After the order was issued, all the troops began to act according to the order and set off as an army, and the Vermilion Bird Army, an ancient beast that had been dormant in Canglan Mountain for a long time, also showed its hideous fangs for the first time.
Although the Suzaku Army is busy expanding the army these days, it has not let go of other work, especially intelligence work. In order to deal with all kinds of emergencies, the General Staff Department has formulated several sets of response plans according to all kinds of possible accidents.
And after the Red Lotus Sect's mountain breaking incident, with the exposure crisis faced by the Vermilion Bird Army, Li Yun had to put the early incident on the agenda. So under his orders, the General Staff drew up several sets of plans for the uprising.
In the end, after careful consideration, Li Yun formulated the current plan for the uprising.
This plan is actually very simple, that is, before the Qianyuan Empire can react, it will be stabbed fiercely and occupy enough strategic depth in the shortest possible time.
Therefore, Li Yun's strategy was for Zhao Xin and Hou San to capture Lianshan and Lincheng counties respectively. He personally led the main force to attack Changping County, and finally approached Ruzhou City in Huishi!
In order to make sufficient preparations for the incident, Li Yun had already made a clear understanding of the enemy situation around Ruzhou Mansion. And in the city are secretly ambushed a force, when necessary to cooperate with the siege force to cooperate with the outside of the city.
Moreover, there was no Imperial ace army stationed near Ruzhou, and the main opponent of the Suzaku Army was actually patrol battalions from all over the country. Therefore, even if the troops are divided to attack, the Suzaku Army still has a great advantage.
"Quick! Fast! Fast! Speed up the march! β
Under Li Yun's strict orders, the various units marched all the way to their respective targets.
And the first person to get the news of the Suzaku Army's dispatch was Lin Quanzhai, which was closest to the Vermilion Bird Army.
When Sakuragi heard the news of the Suzaku Army's attack, he couldn't help but be shocked, "What! You said that the Suzaku Army sent troops overnight, where is the destination? How many people! β
The spy shook his head and replied, "I don't know, they are very well guarded, and I can't get close at all." β
Sakuragi's face was gloomy when he heard this, and he thought for a long time before he said, "I'm exploring!" Be sure to find out where they are! β
"No!"
At this time, Ruzhou City was still in the midst of singing and dancing, and he didn't know the impending crisis.
After Zhou Chengtao reported the situation in Qingping County to Zheng Feilong, the Imperial Guard of the Ruzhou Supervision Office, Zheng Feilong, he immediately attracted Zheng Feilong's great attention. He immediately ordered Zhou Chengtao to bring people to support Hu Bin, and he immediately went to Xue Changgui, the prefect of Ruzhou, to transfer troops.
Because although the Dragon Fu Secret Guards are all masters, they are not manpowered, and it is enough to handle ordinary cases. However, since the Red Lotus Sect dared to overhead Qingping County, there was definitely a lot of power involved, so it was not enough to use the manpower of the Dragon Fu Secret Guard.
Fortunately, the imperial power is granted, and if there is a need for the Dragon Fu Secret Guard to handle the case, he can then mobilize local soldiers and horses to assist.
As a spy agency directly under the emperor, the Dragon Fu Guards are notorious, and the officials of the nine clans who were accused of committing rebellion by them are really countless.
Therefore, when Zheng Feilong came to the door murderously, Xue Changgui, who was having sex with his concubine, was immediately frightened. When he heard that Zheng Feilong was here to transfer troops instead of arresting him, Xue Changgui came back to his senses, and then hurried to transfer troops to Zheng Feilong.
During this period, he didn't dare to ask anything, because the case of the Dragon Fu Secret Guard was not something that his small prefect could inquire about.
However, the Qianyuan Empire has been peaceful for a long time, and an empire that has been comfortable for too long has all the problems, such as the slack of armaments.
Ruzhou is only a medium-sized government, and although it has a lot of revenue, there are more people who spend money. In addition, there is no threat in the surrounding area, so the combat effectiveness of the patrol battalion is not strong, except for a few associations that support the faΓ§ade, the others are basically full.
Therefore, Xue Changgui finally gave Zheng Feilong and gathered a team of elite soldiers to come out. But later, Zheng Feilong saw that it was getting late, so he decided to rest for the night and send troops. Compared with the vigorous and resolute actions of the Suzaku Army, the efficiency of the government is too procrastinating.
Soldiers, you are fast! Whoever has the time in his hands will have the initiative in the war!
Li Yun understood this better than anyone else, so he sent troops overnight without waiting for dawn.
So after bypassing Qingping County, Li Yun led the army to Changping County before dawn after a night of rapid marching.
"Wow...... Ah......h
Upstairs in Changping County, a soldier guarding the city yawned, and after staying up all night, he couldn't open his eyes a little. At this time, he just wanted to change shifts quickly, so that he could go back and sleep beautifully.
But at this moment, he seemed to vaguely see a large army in the distance.
The soldier quickly rubbed his loose eyes, looked at them carefully, and finally realized that this was not his hallucination. He couldn't help but open his mouth wide, and then he shook the Wu Chang beside him, "Wu Chang, look! Look! β
"What are you doing Zhao Liu! Lao Tzu is sleeping fragrantly! Wang Laosan shouted dissatisfiedly, and then turned his head to fall asleep.
But Zhao Liu continued to shake him and said, "Captain Wu really has an accident, look at it!" β
Wang Laosan had no choice but to stand up and say, "If Zhao Liu is okay, Lao Tzu will kick you down!" β
After scolding viciously, Wang Laosan looked in the direction of Zhao Liu's finger. And Wang Laosan was immediately stunned when he saw this, only to see a murderous army with military flags waving and driving from a distance.
"Captain, is this an Imperial legion?" Feeling the amazing momentum of that army, Zhao Liu couldn't help but speak out.
"It's a fart! Don't hurry up and beat the drum to warn! Wang Laosan was angry when he heard this, and couldn't help but knock on Zhao Liu's head.
"Ah......h Be! Be! β
After being beaten, Zhao Liu reacted, and then immediately ran over, picked up the sledgehammer and knocked it hard.
"Boom......! Boom......! Boom......! Boom......! β
So the rapid drum beat immediately woke up the sleeping Changshan County.
There is an iron law in the Qianyuan Empire, that is, the army in other places is not allowed to approach the city outside the defense area without authorization, and the violator will be punished for rebellion and rebellion!
Unless you have an order from the Ministry of War, but even then you have to send a liaison officer to contact you in advance, otherwise you are guilty of the same crime!
That's why Wang Laosan took a look at it and was so panicked. Because he had never seen a military flag like that, and he had never received a notification of the crossing of the Imperial Army!
