Chapter 575: Strategic Shift
"With these account books, files, and classics, immediately go to the gate of Dongcheng and join Wei Chong'an, Ding Sanlin and others, and I will arrive later." Shen Yan couldn't think of a more appropriate tactic for a while, and with a hint of contemplation in his eyes, he said indifferently to Huang Weiqian.
"What about Pei Xiangdong?" Shen Yan's eyes swept around, but he didn't see Pei Xiangdong's figure, and asked aloud with a hint of doubt.
"Lao Pei and others are patrolling the streets." Huang Weiqian's eyes had a helpless smile in his eyes, and he replied loudly.
"Pei Xiangdong and the others really regard themselves as the masters here, and they also patrol the streets, send people to inform Pei Xiangdong and the others, and immediately rush to the east gate of the city to meet Wei Chongan and others, no matter which team of people they meet on the road, let them spread this military order throughout the entire Wuzhou Mansion within a quarter of an hour." The corners of Shen Yan's mouth showed an indifferent smile.
Shen Yan understood the intention of Pei Xiangdong and others to patrol the streets, that is, they didn't want sudden accidents, and they wanted everything to be under control, so that when they entered Wuzhou Mansion, they would avoid some unnecessary incidents.
"The last general commands." Fang Butong followed closely by Shen Yan's side, hearing Shen Yan teasing Pei Xiangdong and others, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and when he heard Shen Yan's order again, Fang Butong hurriedly responded, although Guo Jinarc would also send someone to inform Pei Xiangdong and others, but Shen Yan had already arranged a double insurance.
"My lord, this prefect is corrupt and perverts the law, should it be dealt with in accordance with the laws of Great Xia?" Huang Weiqian looked at Shen Yan's eyes, muttered for a moment, and then a faint smile appeared on his face, and said softly.
"According to my authority, I don't have the power to deal with such a thing, however, after all, I still have the right attendant of the Criminal Department hanging on my body, and when I encounter such a corrupt official who bends the law for bribes, and he is an official who has taken refuge in the White Lotus Sect, I do have the power to deal with him." Hearing Huang Weiqian's words, an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, although Shen Yan is not very old, but at Shen Yan's level, not everything should be said by himself, and some things need to be brought up by the people below, such as this time.
Shen Yan really wanted to deal with this prefect in his bones, not only because he was corrupt and perverted the law, but more importantly, as long as he was disposed of, the silver in the secret room would be temporarily safe, but such a thing, Shen Yan couldn't take the initiative to say it, and the meaning of saying it himself and the people below said it was completely different.
"cut off his head and hang it on the gate of the prefect's yamen, so that the people of Wuzhou Mansion know that this is the fate of corrupt officials." Shen Yan's eyes flashed with a look of approval, glanced at Huang Weiqian, and then said without the slightest emotion.
"My lord, do you need to go through a trial process?" Hearing Shen Yan's words full of murderous intent, a touch of contemplation appeared in Huang Weiqian's eyes, when the decision continues, it will be chaotic, Shen Yan has done a good job in this regard, and when it is time to make a decision, he will not drag his feet at all.
"There's no need to be so troublesome, anyway, we can't become the master of Wuzhou Mansion for the time being, so we don't have to make it so cumbersome, and in terms of time, we don't have time to do it." Shen Yan heard Huang Weiqian's suggestion, and a touch of intent appeared in his eyes, knowing that Huang Weiqian was thinking about his reputation, but time did not allow, and even if he went through such a process, the people here might not buy their own accounts, since it was thankless to do so, it was better not to do it.
"My subordinates understood." When Huang Weiqian heard Shen Yan's words, a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"My lord, the Great Xia Royal Army has been assembled, and it should have reached three thousand one hundred and twenty-five people, but it has actually reached three thousand and eighty-seven people." After Shen Yan disposed of the prefect's mansion, he quickly rushed to the east of the city with Huang Weiqian and others, after Pei Xiangdong and the others saw Shen Yan, a look of excitement appeared on their faces, and their eyes looked at Shen Yan in unison, Pei Xiangdong took a step forward and said loudly.
"In the battle of the canyon, our combined strength is almost more than a thousand, although we successfully blocked the reinforcements of the White Lotus Sect, and killed nearly 5,000 soldiers of the White Lotus Sect on the spot, and the rest of the White Lotus Sect soldiers are all scattered, this battle achievement can be said to be very proud, even if any of the five armies in Jinling can not be compared to the height, but we have to face reality, not because we have won a big victory with one enemy and eight, we can relax our minds, and we can be proud." Shen Yan looked at the brother who followed him from birth to death in front of him, his eyes contained a hint of moisture, and shouted loudly.
"In the battle of the canyon, we won, but we suffered another thirty-eight casualties, although some arrangements were made for them temporarily in the Wuzhou Mansion, but at least they could not keep up with us for the next period of time, they could only silently support us in their hearts."
"So, in order to live up to the trust of the casualties brothers, I have decided to eat this White Lotus Sect reinforcement in the next few days."
"The Great Xia Royal Army will win." Hearing Shen Yan's slightly deep words, a scorching light flashed in the eyes of Pei Xiangdong and the others, raised their right hands, and shouted loudly.
"Victory." The soldiers of the Great Xia Royal Army also shouted loudly.
"Brothers, I have confidence that this is a good thing, but I still have to recognize the facts, there are more than 20,000 White Lotus Sect reinforcements in this group, so we have almost no hope of winning in a frontal battle, I originally thought that we would rely on the city wall of Wuzhou Mansion to delay the footsteps of this White Lotus Sect, but there are two problems: First, fighting in Wuzhou Mansion, we are an away game, and the officials, squires and people here may not necessarily have the power to support us, so if we go to war here, our risk is too great. Second, the White Lotus Sect reinforcements must surround the Wuzhou Mansion, and then ask for help from the White Lotus Sect in Lingnan, then we have only a dead end, so this idea is not realistic at all. A hearty smile appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, and he looked at the officers and soldiers of the Great Xia Royal Army in front of him, and said loudly.
"The only way out for us is to abandon Wuzhou Mansion, which is not only our established combat goal, but also our strategy to attract reinforcements from the White Lotus Sect. In order to eat the White Lotus Sect reinforcements behind us, I now order everyone to run to the hilly terrain more than eighty miles east of the city, in this process, I hope everyone will maintain a good formation to reach the destination, and no one will be left behind. Shen Yan said this, with a strong and confident smile in his eyes, he glanced at the heavy responsibility, raised his right hand, and said loudly.
"Victory." Seeing Shen Yan raise his right hand, all the officers and soldiers of the Great Xia Royal Army raised their right hands and shouted loudly.
"Let's go."
