Let's say that Wu Yunzhao made up his mind to raise troops against the Sui in Nanyang and fight to the death with the Sui army.

In the middle of the county, the generals in the army were convened to discuss the use of troops.

Wu Yunzhao sat in the hall, and under the generals, Wu Yunzhao said loudly: "My father served as a servant in Daxing, and he made great achievements in the southern and northern wars of the Great Sui. Now that Yang Guang has killed his father and usurped the throne, my father is unwilling to join in the same stream with him, so he was killed by the faint king, and more than 300 members of my Wu family were all beheaded, and none of them were spared. ”

"And now, the faint monarch has sent Han Baohu, Ma Shumou, Yuwen Chengdu and other generals to lead the elite and kill Nanyang, wanting to destroy me. The faint monarch is persecuted like this, I have no way to retreat, I should lead the army of Nanyang to fight to the death, I don't know what you think? Wu Yunzhao's eyes were burning, he looked at everyone, and asked in a deep voice.

And among the crowd, a general flashed out, named Sima Chao, eight feet tall, with a green face and red beard, making a big knife, and having the courage of ten thousand people.

Sima Chao stood in front of the hall and said to Wu Yunzhao: "Yang Guang, the faint monarch, killed his father and usurped the throne, and everyone can get it and punish him." The old lady was loyal to the country, but she was killed by the faint king, which is an enemy who does not share the sky. ”

"I am willing to follow the Hou Ye to raise an army against Sui, enter Daxing, destroy Yang Guang, set up a new monarch, and avenge the old lady. For the sake of the king, for the benefit of the country and self, loyalty and filial piety! Sima Chao's face was solemn, and his words were extremely positive.

Wu Yunzhao replied: "General Sima's heart is like this, it is very much in line with my wishes, I don't know what the other generals think?"

There is another general out of the ranks, named Jiao Fang, seven feet tall, white-faced and beardless, so that a spear, on the battlefield, is very powerful. Jiao Fang looked at Wu Yunzhao and replied: "Master Hou doesn't need to bother, we are all willing to fight with Master Hou and take revenge!"

"Okay, with your help, Yun Zhao will die without regrets!" Seeing that all the generals were united, Wu Yunzhao sighed in his heart, and replied with a positive color.

After another moment, Wu Yunzhao glanced at the generals and ordered: "Sima Chao, you immediately lead 20,000 horses to Qilin Pass and garrison the camps everywhere, there must be no loss!"

Sima Chao immediately replied: "The last general will be ordered!"

Then, Wu Yunzhao looked at Jiao Fang again and ordered: "Jiao Fang, the army is about to go, and grain and grass are important things. You take an arrow from Benhou and go everywhere to urge the collection of grain and grass, and do not delay! ”

Jiao Fang took the arrow from Wu Yunzhao's hand, and replied repeatedly: "The last general has orders!"

Subsequently, Wu Yunzhao ordered the generals to return to the camp to inspect the armor and weapons, and train the soldiers diligently.

……

In the middle of the county, a few days passed, and suddenly a group of people came to the city.

The general defending the city was about to be frightened, and the person who came said: "In the majestic sea, I specially brought someone to the appointment today, please inform Wu Houye!"

This person is Xiong Kuohai, and after separating from Luo Cheng and the others, he returned to the cottage. Now that the people have been gathered and the cottage has been rectified, it is to bring people to join Wu Yun and summon them.

When the guard heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The majestic sea grew tall and burly, which put a lot of pressure on him. Knowing that this person is a friend and not an enemy is naturally much easier.

After waiting for the guards to pass through, Wu Yunzhao and Luo Cheng came to the city gate to greet them.

"Big brother, third brother!" Xiong Kuohai arched his hand and said.

Luo Cheng smiled slightly: "Second brother, my eldest brother and I have been waiting for you for a long time, you can be regarded as coming."

Xiong Kuohai said embarrassedly: "There was a delay in the cottage, so there was a delay."

Wu Yunzhao shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's good to come!" You're stationed in the city first, and I'll wait until I'm in the house. ”

Xiong Kuohai nodded and said, "It's all like the words of the big brother!"

The three of them dismounted and walked to the Nanyang Marquis Mansion.

After entering the house, the three of them gathered in the hall.

Wu Yunzhao told the recent events one by one, and the majestic sea couldn't help but sigh for a while, but soon, he said loudly: "Big brother, this is your business, and it is also a brother's business, as long as you can use my place in the majestic sea, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, I will never shirk!"

Luo Cheng Zhengse said: "Big brother, the three brothers and I will work together to make the profits!"

"Haha, it's good to work together, and its profits are gold!" Wu Yunzhao was touched in his heart, but he said with a hearty smile.

……

Besides, Han of Qi, the Duke of Qi, captured the tiger, and was ordered by Yang Guang to lead 300,000 troops from Daxing and kill Nanyang.

Han Baohu is to let Uncle Ma lead the troops in front, and he leads the Chinese army in the back, walking slowly and without urgency.

Han Baohu and Wu Jianzhang were originally brothers who had been friends of eight worships, and this time they were ordered by the emperor to crusade against Nanyang, and they could not be violated.

But Han Baohu did not have the idea of cutting off Wu Jianzhang's heir, so he led the army to move slowly and gave Wu Yunzhao a chance to escape.

And this Uncle Ma plotted, led the troops in front, and plundered the people along the way, *** woman, it is really a great crime, and even more thieves.

For all this, Han Baohu ignored them, he knew very well that Ma Shumou was able to be this pioneer not because of any ability. is because he is Yang Guang's cronies and Yang Guang's favorite ministers.

The army marched all the way to the Qilin Pass!

Uncle Ma was planning to lead the troops in front, so he rode his horse to watch, but he saw that the gate was closed, and on both sides of the pass, two white flags were erected, and the book "The king of loyalty and filial piety and his father take revenge!" ”

When this Uncle Ma saw this, he was stunned at first, but soon he was furious, and shouted: "This Qilin Pass general soldier actually took refuge in Wu Yunzhao, and he really deserves death!"

At this moment, the situation has changed, the Qilin Pass is guarded, such a thing, Uncle Ma does not dare to make his own opinions. is to hurriedly call Han Baohu and ask about the situation, how to deal with it!

Han Baohu was also a little surprised when he saw Ma Shumou, so he asked, "Didn't Ma Xianfeng lead the troops in front?" How to get to the Chinese army? ”

Ma Shumou said in a loud voice: "Marshal Qiyu, the last general just arrived at Qilin Pass, and saw that Qilin Pass was closed and confined, and a white flag was erected on it, with the words 'Revenge of King Loyalty and Filial Piety' on it. In the opinion of the last general, this Qilin Pass chief soldier may have defected to Wu Yunzhao. ”

Han Baohu's brows tightened, and he said coldly: "This guy is really rude, he dares to rebel against the court, it is really a capital crime." Ma Xianxian, you immediately lead people to break through the Qilin Pass, so that the thieves can know the strength of my imperial army! ”

Uncle Ma was stunned, but soon, he returned to normal, and said to Han Baohu slightly: "The last general will obey the order!"

After receiving the order of Han to capture the tiger, Ma Shumou did not hesitate anymore, so he led the army and went straight to Qilin Pass to kill.

When he arrived at the pass, looking at this awe-inspiring Xiongguan, Ma Shumou couldn't help but be frightened, and after hesitation, he looked at his subordinates and said, "Who dares to call for war and fight this battle?"

There was a deputy vanguard Lei Ming, who stood up from the army and shouted: "The last general is willing to be the first to fight!"

Ma Shumou was immediately overjoyed and said with a smile: "This is very good, this pass will be handed over to General Lei."

Lei Ming held Fang Tian's halberd, turned over his horse, and killed towards the pass, shouting in his mouth: "Who dares to fight with me?"
