Chapter 977: From the Dark to the Bright

king

There are so many meanings in this word.

If this is just a surname, then it will not make so many heroes and heroes fight for it. Providence or not, the markings on the tiger's forehead give it a heaven-granted-like throne. And how many people, especially men, shed their blood in order to become kings, but in the end they get nothing.

The news that the eldest princess of the Great Sui was going to personally preside over the ceremony and seal Fang to become the king has spread, and this news is not only a signal to the officers and men of the Black Flag Army, but also a signal to the forces outside the Black Flag Army. Fang Jiefeng Wang, he is the orthodox force recognized by the Yang clan of the Great Sui. How many people still think that the Great Sui Imperial Family can give a justifiable title after the rebellion? How many people disdain this kind of title on the surface, but in fact, they are jealous and want to hit the wall.

Although this is just a title, it doesn't sound as heroic as being a self-established king, but for the current chaos of the Great Sui, this is the best way.

Fang Jie's mind is not on this, these things are naturally handled by the people below, and he doesn't need to worry about anything. His energy is still in the military, after all, Gao Kaitai's more than 100,000 or 200,000 horses are not straw handles. Even if it's a straw handle, it can't be cut in a moment or a half.

"Did the people from the Xiao Riding School find out any news?"

Fang Xie asked Chen Xiaoru while looking through the reports sent by various armies: "My subordinates have arranged a lot of people to keep an eye on them, but it is not easy to find out what is going on in the Gao family army camp. Although his subordinates began to arrange for people to enter Gao Kaitai's camp before entering the army, it was difficult to get in touch with things at that level in such a short time, and they could only watch more and pay more attention in the camp at present. As for the people outside, they didn't see anything wrong, and there was nothing unusual about the movement of people. ”

"Nothing out of the ordinary?"

Fang asked.

"Nope."

Chen Xiaoru shook his head firmly: "My subordinates just received the news from there this afternoon, and the Gao Kaitai camp is as calm as usual. From here to the city passes of Beijing Province, there is no abnormality, and the city defense is as tight as ever. ”

Fang Xie snorted: "Gao Kaitai's mind is not bad, but if someone else is someone else, he may have already been tormented by his own suspicions." The affairs of the north are not in a hurry, but this battle is in a hurry at this time. Compared with Gao Kaitai, I am more worried about the affairs of Dongjiang. ”

"My lord, the people of the Xiao Riding School have never relaxed the news from the Eastern Xinjiang side. Yesterday, I reported to you that the team of Nalan Dingdong to help Dongjiang has not yet crossed the Shanhaiguan, and the time consumed by the exchange of news is calculated, if nothing else, Nalan will just go out of the Shanhaiguan. As for participating in the war, he still has to wait for Mu Guangling's assignment. Now the various forces in Eastern Xinjiang are mixed, but with our cargo through the world and the people from the Xiao Riding School, nothing will happen to the people and horses brought by Nalan. Besides, Nalan is still a Northern Liao person, and the Northern Liao people's station is less than ten days' road from the war zone at most. ”

Fang Xie nodded: "The affairs of Eastern Xinjiang are more closely watched, especially the side of Muping City, although it has been controlled by foreigners now, it can't be relaxed." Yang Shunhui's two guards may not have the same mind as him, let the Xiao Cavalry School over there check to see if someone is helping foreigners. I have some understanding of Yang Shun, and I estimate that someone around him must be bought by foreigners. If you find this person, it is best to capture him alive. If you can't capture it alive, get rid of it, and then try your best to rebel against Yang Shunhui's generals. Although the two guards were newly built later, Yang Shun would have a set of training soldiers, and those soldiers could use them. The blood in Yang Shunhui's heart has turned black, but the blood in the hearts of the two guards must still be red. ”

"The subordinates will arrange someone to deliver the news in a while."

Chen Xiaoru said.

Fang Xie snorted: "Besides, it's already here, it's time to get in touch with Mu San." In order to protect him, he cut off contact with him, but he has always sent someone to protect him. It is about to enter Gyeonggi Province, and it may not be long before Chang'an City is attacked. Mu San has been in the city for the past two years, and he knows more about the city than anyone else. ”

"Take him out?"

Chen Xiaoru asked.

"No, it's better for him to stay in the city. After getting in touch, I asked him to go to my shop on East 23rd Street, and I left some silver tickets under the second brick of the door for him to take and walk around. There has never been a shortage of greedy silver in Chang'an City, in the past, there was the Great Sui Emperor who suppressed them and had some restraint, but now there is no one in the city to call the shots, and silver is kinder to them than anything else. Let Mu San not be stingy, if you can buy it with money, there is no need to be stingy. ”

"Of course ......"

Fang Xie added: "Anyone who can be bought with silver does not need to cherish it." ”

……

……

It has been more than twenty days since Jiu Secai came out of Chang'an City, and it has been three days since he arrived at the Black Flag Army camp. For a person like him, no matter how tall the walls of Chang'an City were, it was useless. That fat body can't stop him from being as light as a swallow, how can the city wall stop it.

After the Black Flag Army went north, Wu Yiyi sent someone to Chang'an City to contact Jiu Secai and ask him to come back. This fat man, who did everything hard, rushed all the way back this time, almost sleeplessly, and looked like he had lost some weight. Wu Yiyi didn't rush to ask him anything, and let him sleep comfortably for three days after he came back.

"Master"

Walking into the house where Wu Yi lived, the wine color Cai bowed deeply and bowed. He changed into a clean outfit, as tight as ever. Speaking of which, each of his clothes is very carefully made and the materials are very good, but he refuses to make them fat, and seems to enjoy the feeling of being wrapped tightly around his body. Or, he insisted that he would look thinner in this way.

"Got enough sleep?"

Wu Yi squinted his eyes and glanced at the wine-colored Cai, and put down the book in his hand.

"I've slept well."

Jiu Secai nodded: "Knowing that the master asked me to come back, my heart blossomed, I couldn't stop running on two legs, and I was really tired of running back from Chang'an City in one breath." But when I go back to my grandfather, I am steady, and I don't have to worry about anything when I sleep. ”

Wu Yi nodded and pointed to the chair in front of him: "Sit down and talk." ”

Wine-colored Cai rubbed his ass and sat down on the chair, waiting for Wu Yi to ask.

"How's it going in the city?"

"Messy!"

Jiu Secai's answer did not surprise Wu Yiyi.

Jiu Secai sorted out his thoughts: "Actually, this chaos started after Yang Jian left Chang'an City with the Iron Armor Army, but it was not as obvious as the chaos at first. Not long after Yang Jian left, someone secretly dispatched a master to assassinate Wei Mu, the army that Yang Jian stayed behind in Chang'an City. However, this Wei Mu cultivation is not bad, and several groups of people have been killed, and each one has succeeded. Instead, he captured an assassin and forced him to find out who was behind the scenes, and Wei Mu led the ironclad army to slaughter a family. ”

After that, the people who wanted to kill Wei Mu fell silent for a while. After half a year, some people began to secretly send people to assassinate Wei Mu. But the real masters in the city have their own things to do, and most of the people who can be invited are Jianghu guests who don't have much ability. There were quite a few hands, but none of them hurt Wei Mu. Wei Mu later became furious and led the ironclad army to slaughter three large families in one go. ”

Jiu Secai paused for a moment and continued: "Later, because Wang Yiqu and Gao Kaitai began to attack Chang'an City, there were no more people who assassinated Wei Mu. Because those guys all knew that if Wang Yiqu and Gao Kaitai entered Chang'an City, they might not be able to get benefits, so it was better to keep Wei Mu to guard the city. ”

"However, before his subordinates left Chang'an City, they found out that someone had already hired a master to kill Wei Mu. Later, after his subordinates knew the name of that person, they thought about it, where did they need others to think about, and he himself couldn't have said that he wanted to kill Wei Mu a long time ago. ”

"Luo Weiran?"

Wu Yi asked.

"I can't hide anything!"

The wine color Cai just slapped a sycophant: "The subordinates know that Luo Weiran is hiding in the palace when he returns to Chang'an, and he also knows about Wei Mu's cultivation." However, Wei Mu didn't dare to take the initiative to provoke Luo Weiran, after all, he and Luo Weiran were not sure at all if they made a move, so they pretended not to know. The subordinates didn't know why Luo Weiran hadn't come out of the palace all the time, and why he suddenly planned to come out to kill Wei Mu, and the news actually leaked out. ”

"Luo Weiran is not that stupid."

Wu Yiyi shook his head: "If he wants to kill Wei Mu, he won't publicize it, this matter is someone sowing discord." It seems that there are still people who know that Luo Weiran is in Chang'an City, so they made up this news and threw it out, the purpose of which is to lead Wei Mu and Luo Weiran to fight. No matter who died, the onlookers at least watched a lively one. ”

"The heart is really vicious."

Liquor Secai sighed: "Why didn't I think of it...... If I had thought of it, I would have spread such words all over the streets. ”

Wu Yi glanced at him: "How many soldiers and horses are there in the city?" ”

"Not a few"

Jiu Secai replied: "Although the forbidden army was squeezed out by the ironclad army at the beginning, the scale has not changed, and there are at least 18,000 people. The city defense army was the soldiers and horses before Yang Shunhui left Chang'an, and the number was no less than 30,000. The soldiers and horses were asked by the little emperor to protect themselves, and then asked Yang Shunhui to prepare for a new army. Now that the little emperor is dead, none of these 30,000 people are led by anyone who serves the public, many people are blushing, and those people in the court are fighting for their heads and blood, and they have long had no face to say. ”

"Hundred miles of Chang'an City, it's too big."

Jiu Secai sighed and said, "Although it seems that the number of troops is only fifty thousand, it is not much, but the number of people is too many. If someone promises a lot of money, they may be able to recruit a large army. ”

"Won't"

Wu Yiyi couldn't help but smile: "After so many years in Chang'an City, you still don't know the people of Chang'an City." They regard themselves as superior to others, and everyone thinks that they are relatives of the emperor...... When the army arrived outside Chang'an City, the eldest princess said a word, and the people would crawl on the ground and weep bitterly. ”

"That's right, ...... you"

After hesitating for a while, Jiu Secai couldn't help but ask: "Master, what about us?" That's it? ”

Wu Yi glanced at him and nodded: "That's it." ”

"But...... Why? ”

Wine color Cai asked.

"Didn't you say that person was dead? Without that person watching us from behind, why do things for others? As long as you give an order, all the people who travel the world can stand up and level half of the world! ”

"In that case, don't say it again. You still have to do things under me, don't force me to do anything. ”

Wu Yiyi said seriously: "I said that's it, then that's it." If you feel unconvinced, unwilling...... Do you know what to expect? ”

Jiu Secai was stunned, and then nodded vigorously: "The subordinates know." ”

"Do what you have to do and you won't lose what you deserve."

Wu Yiyi said slowly: "When I left you to do things by my side, it was because you were smart enough. If you're really smart enough, you know what I want. If you know what I want, then you know what you have to do. ”

Jiu Secai leaned over: "My subordinates understand." ”

Wu Yiyi waved his hand: "You can go directly to the lord in a while, and he will arrange a suitable position for you." In the Xiao Riding School, I will first be a deputy commander, and I will have a great contribution in the future, and my future will be bright. You have followed me for so many years and have not given you anything, and now all I can give you is to put you from the dark to the light, and how wide the road will be in the future depends on how you walk. ”

"Thank you!"

Jiu Secai bowed again and rubbed his eyes: "In the future, the master will still take care of the rice, right?" ”

"Roll"
