When the army of the Wandering Ghost Country plundered all the way to Liyang, it was already full of money, and at this time, the lord of the Wandering Ghost Country already had the intention of retreating and returning north.

Lu Xuan's ability to observe words and emotions is still very good, so he sent someone to tell the army of the Flowing Ghost Country that there are many silk cloths and beauties in Liyang City, this trick is very effective, and the lord of the Flowing Ghost Country immediately ordered a fierce attack on Liyang.

Wu Jun in Liyang City looked at the appearance of the army of the Flowing Ghost Country, and he was a little afraid in his heart.

Most of the Wandering Ghost ** team are tall and stout warriors who are capable of Bo Xiong, and in order to plunder the wealth of the population, they keep attacking Liyang City day and night.

The army of the Wandering Ghost Kingdom still climbed the city wall after being hit by a few arrows, and half of their heads were knocked off, and they were still holding a ladder, and they were about to rush under the city gate when they were on fire.

Although the Wu army defending the city used up all the oil and firewood and bricks in the city, Liyang City fell in less than ten days.

The fallen city of Liyang has become a hell on earth.

There were people who had been killed everywhere, and most of the soldiers of the Wandering Ghost Country had a rope in their hands. At the other end of the rope were boys and girls with their arms tied behind their backs.

In addition to gold and silver treasures, the boxes, cabinets, pots and pans in the city, everything that could be loaded into the car, were taken away by the rogue ** team.

Many soldiers of the Yu Kingdom couldn't stand it, and asked Lu Xuan to give an order to stop the people of the Wandering Ghost Country.

Lu Xuan was timid and afraid, thinking that the people of the Wandering Ghost Country would be satisfied if they robbed too much, and they would return north when the time came, and if they were not satisfied, they would cross the river.

Although the lord of the Wandering Ghost Country was an illiterate person who had not read the art of war, he was not stupid and did not follow the route designed by the monarch of Yu to cross the river to the south.

The army of the Wandering Ghost Country drove tens of thousands of boys and girls along the seashore to the north with hundreds of carts of property, and Lu Xuan sent them out of the country with 10,000 horsetails.

Wu Zhenchang led the army to prepare to return to Xinli, but there were deserters who came to report the fall of Liyang.

Wu Zhenchang consulted with the left and right, and decided to go east to Linzi, and then plan a big plan after rectifying the soldiers and horses.

Along the way, many soldiers secretly fled, and Wu Zhenchang heard that many officials in the city had surrendered to Zhong Zhiming, so he began to punish the so-called traitors.

When passing by Juye, someone told him that this was Ling Yun's lair, and it was the Ju Ye who secretly helped Ling Yun, and Wu Zhenchang immediately ordered Ju Ye to be severely punished!

Severely punish Juye, but what falls to the people in Juye City is flying disaster, and it is a hell on earth.

Wu Zhenchang, who entered the city, looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly remembered what he had said when he was a teenager in a private school, when he said that he wanted to be a sage in the world and save the people of the world.

But now, it is he who leads a group of civilians to loot and slaughter other people, and the young man who kept saying that he wants to be a saint and sage has now become the leader of the devil.

Wu Zhenchang slapped his head with his hands, trying his best to tell himself that he was doing a righteous thing, so that from now on, he would have to get drunk every night to fall asleep, but he would always be awakened in his dreams.

The children were crying, the slashed people were wailing, blood was flowing on the ground, and Wu Zhenchang fainted again.

When he woke up, he was already in the tent.

A few months ago, he was still a hero of the Great Liang and a close confidant of the emperor, and in one fell swoop he annihilated thousands of cavalry of the Yu State. At that time, he was full of spirit and pointed out the country, as if Sun Wu was reincarnated.

He remembered that after he occupied Xinli City, he also imitated Cao Cao's drunken poems on the Yellow River, and the moonlight that night was extremely bright.

and Zhang Pingnan, who was killed by him a few days ago, every time he thinks of Zhang Pingnan, Wu Zhenchang has extremely complicated feelings, in fact, he has always wanted to be like Zhang Pingnan, or surpass Zhang Pingnan. Wu Zhenchang

is anxious for quick success and quick profit, and will do whatever it takes to achieve his ambitions in order to get ahead, but Zhang Pingnan is tepid, humble, or arrogant, or he still has a better life than him.

When he was a child, his family was not as good as Zhang Pingnan, Zhang Pingnan always helped him, in order to prove his sense of existence, Wu Zhenchang always belittled Zhang Pingnan in front of people, and only had to say his own words about his knowledge and talent above Zhang Pingnan. And Zhang Pingnan always smiled and told others that Wu Zhenchang was much better than him, and as a result, everyone respected Zhang Pingnan more.

Zhang Pingnan was still smiling until he was killed by Wu Zhenchang: "Lord Wu is a powerful figure, how can he harm me, an ant?" ”

Even the people around Wu Zhenchang pleaded for Zhang Pingnan: "Wu Dashuai! Master Zhang is a real good person, you can't kill him! ”

"Since Lord Zhang came to our army, he has never offended Marshal Wu and the soldiers, even if he is guilty, he will not die for his crimes!"

"Wu Dashuai, please also remember that Lord Zhang once helped us in the past, spare his life!"

The more everyone pleaded, the more frightened and angry Wu Zhenchang became, and the reason why he had to kill Zhang Pingnan was that Zhang Pingnan was a real good person, so that Wu Zhenchang's despicability was completely revealed.

Jealousy is the most destructive thing, because jealousy can take revenge and hurt loved ones.

As the saying goes, fighting rice to raise benefactors, and raising rice to raise enemies!

Wu Zhenchang initially had the intention of competing for the world after several big victories, and he also dreamed of dominating the world by himself.

Later, Ma Wenchang's entire army was wiped out, and he wanted to occupy one side of the two Huai separatists.

Now that there is no hope of going south, his foundation is not solid, he looks at everyone like a traitor, and these people in the city are others, not his.

Since the world is no longer his, then he can't get it, and he won't be willing to let others take it, so let's destroy it all the way.

Juye was just the beginning, from Juye to Linzi, the soldiers looted a lot of property at first, and they didn't feel guilty about the killing.

Later, the soldiers found themselves sometimes killed, and their lords didn't know what to do with them, as if they had no other goal than to kill.

Fear and pessimism began to spread, and some of Wu Zhenchang's loyal subordinates were killed one after another by him while drunk.

Finally, on the night of the star of the month, the soldiers tied Wu Zhenchang up.

"How dare you betray me? I knew you were going to betray me! It's a pity that I have a thought! When the judgment is constantly suffering, it is chaotic! Wu Zhenchang was not afraid, but roared hysterically

This is a gambler who has lost red-eyed, everyone is nothing more than his bet, he is just not willing to lose what he once had!

The soldiers had enough of it, and stabbed Wu Zhenchang to death, and then all of them collapsed and fled overnight.

They just want to put an end to it all, they just want to escape back to their former homeland.

Wu Zhenchang is dead, but the sin is not over.

The defeated soldiers either gathered into bandits, or continued to loot the county towns and villages in the name of Wu Zhenchang, and for a time there were cries everywhere in Huaibei.

He Wuji Wang Tiezhu, who fled back to Suiyang, rectified the remnants of the army, and there were only more than 30,000 people left, and the two strengthened the city wall and demolished the houses outside the city, but they did not know that Wu Zhenchang was dead.

Jinling still got the news quickly, and there were scouts who reported Wu Zhenchang's death to Pharmacist Zhu.

Zhu Yaoshi was overjoyed, originally Wang Tiezhu He Wuji was defeated and retreated to Jinling, but Wu Zhenchang was defeated by himself.

Jinling City is a big celebration, the court is public

People were also happy, and only Jia Yuanen looked sad.

Pharmacist Zhu felt that Jia Yuanen was a little unpleasant, so he asked, "Is Taiwei Jia sorry for Wu Zhenchang, a traitor?" ”

"Chen Si Zhang Pingnan, Brother Tai! Now that the Wu thief has been defeated, everyone is happy, but Zhang Pingnan's family has a sad voice! I can't bear it! After that, tears fell like rain, and we couldn't cry silently

Pharmacist Zhu was also dumbfounded, and then sighed: "I'm guilty, I'm sorry Mr. Zhang!" Have you ever found out the whereabouts of Mr. Zhang's body? ”

No one answered, there was silence in the court, and everyone cried with Jia Yuanen.

Fortunately, some Wu soldiers respected Zhang Pingnan as a person and buried him at the risk of death.

After Pharmacist Zhu passed the decree, someone sent Zhang Pingnan's body back to Jinling.

The southern kingdom collected the remains of loyal ministers, and the northern dynasty captured Liyang and rewarded them for meritorious deeds.

After Lu Xuan returned to Heren City, he was naturally rewarded by Pajaqili, but Lu Xuan insisted on not accepting it.

Old Master Lu praised this nephew in the court, and the rest of the ministers also praised him.

Lu Xuan finally said his worries: "The minister is guilty of capital crime, the army of the Wandering Ghost Country has plundered tens of thousands of people in our country and looted countless villages, I am afraid that the Wandering Ghost Country will not be greedy enough in the future, and will go south!" ”

Old Master Lu glared at Lu Xuan, and Lu Xuan lowered his head.

Hu Gao stroked his beard: "For today's plan, the only way to strengthen the Great Wall from Fanyang to the sea is to reinforce it!" ”

Old Master Lu objected and told a bunch of reasons, but in fact, there was only one real reason, that the requisition of the people would hinder the autumn harvest of the Lu family and some officials.

Pajaqili also couldn't laugh or cry, this Great Wall was extremely hated when he was in the grassland, but now he has to rely on it to defend against enemies further north, it is really a trick.

"The Great Wall must be strengthened, and I'm afraid our country will also be moved!" Pajaqili felt that Herencheng was isolated from the outside world, and now he was really insecure in the face of a potential opponent like the Wandering Ghost Country.

However, most of the ministers in the court would rather pay for the reinforcement of the Great Wall than move the capital.

Because most of the people's industries are now in Heren City, once the capital is moved, the prosperity will no longer be there, and a lot of wealth will be lost.

In the face of the potential threat of the Wandering Ghost Country, everyone put forward a unanimous opinion - expand the army!

In fact, the land population of Yu State is not much now, and there is actually not enough troops to expand the army.

In order to solve the problem of the source of troops, everyone decided to form a good alliance with the Green Flag Khanate again, and recruited soldiers and horses from the Green Flag Khanate to defend against the Ghost Country.

"The Green Flag Khanate and my Dayu Kingdom are of the same ancestry, and they lost harmony due to misunderstandings in the past, and now they can send important ministers to bring generous gifts to get along again!"

"The Green Flag Khanate was defeated by Tuyuhun in Huangshui, and now it also needs to be repaired, and even more allies, and it is the right time to rebuild the alliance between the two countries at this time!"

In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the so-called important minister is Hu Gao, after all, he once sent an envoy to the Green Flag Khanate.

Hu Gao had no choice but to be ordered to send an envoy to the Green Flag Khanate again.

When Hu Gao arrived in the Green Flag Khanate, he found that it was very different from a few years ago.

Since the defeat of Huangshui and the fall of Gaochang and the loss of Guanzhong, the Green Banner Khanate has had a shadow, and no one in the country dares to mention the use of troops.

Even though Hu Gao brought treasures and lobbied for more than ten days, the monarchs and ministers of the Green Banner Khanate refused to agree to form an alliance again.

This trip to the envoy went in vain, but Hu Gao, who returned to China to restore his life, was criticized by the ministers.

Fortunately, Pajaqili still tried his best to defend Hu Gao, but Hu Gao was so angry that he vomited blood and fainted in the main hall.

If Mingli can't form an alliance, he can only be lured on the border between the two countries, and with money, he can still recruit the strong men of the Green Flag Khanate.
