Chapter 714: Wu'an is panicked
(Three more updates in the middle of the night!!) Happy National Day!! )
Wei Wuji left Changping Pass on the eighth day of the third month, and because it was all cavalry, they marched relatively fast.
The only obstacle along the way is the supply of grain and grass. Most of the officials were members of the lineage, and of course these people did not want Wei Wuji to bring troops into Wu'an.
On the other hand, Wei Wuji led more than 50,000 soldiers and horses, and his own consumption was also very large, so the supply was inevitably poor.
This slowed down Wei Wuji's march, and he had to raise military rations along the way before he could safely head north.
At first, Wei Wuji only sent someone to contact the local officials when he arrived in one place, but the other party did not cooperate much.
After a few times, Wei Wuji changed his mind, why did he ask for others? Do people listen to reason?
Therefore, before Wei Wuji arrived everywhere in the future, he directly sent a grain collection army to collect grain, which is what the historian wrote about "arson for chaos".
It is always more efficient to use a knife than to speak with your mouth, and in this way, Wei Wuji raised his speed, but in fact, relatively speaking, the speed of the rush still failed to reach full speed.
In contrast, the news of Wei Wuji's troops heading north spread much faster, reaching the ears of the nobles of Wu'an only seven days later.
This caused an uproar, and the entire upper echelon of Wu'an shook!
Although they were mentally prepared for this fact, they still felt terrified when it came, and even more feared.
The little doll who was bullied in Wu'an and was played by the clan between applause is now back...... And he came back with a large army.
This man has never been a good talker, let alone a good person...... Even according to the information below, this son is an extremely murderous person.
You must know that when he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he killed people on the battlefield, and even planned a massacre in Chen Du Xinle.
It is precisely because of this Xinle massacre that the upper echelons of the Chen State collapsed, resulting in the current Chen State existing in name only.
In the future, there will be more people killed by this son, and the Hu people in northern Xinjiang have been in turmoil for many years, and I don't know how many have been the souls of this son's sword!
As soon as they thought of this, the people of Wu'an felt that it was difficult to sleep and eat, and the delicacies of the mountains and seas on weekdays had no taste, and they were no longer interested in all the fun things.
No, after receiving the news on the night of March 15, they all got together the next day to discuss countermeasures.
This time is different from the past, it is no longer the four major families who participate in the discussion, but the families ranked Shaoqing and above have sent people.
The meeting place, which was supposed to be quiet and solemn, became noisy after the sudden increase in people, and it hurt everyone's ears to hear it.
And the old men in charge of the matter, seeing this situation, their faces sank like water, and they looked like they would explode at any time!
This scene also happens to indicate that maybe the family is really about to collapse, and this mess looks like it has lost the battle.
At this time, it was Xie Linyun, the head of the Xie family, who stood up and shouted to everyone in the lobby: "Everyone, what result can be achieved by arguing like this?" Can you defeat Wei Wuji's army? ”
The reason why Xie Linyun couldn't sit still was because the Xie family was deeper than everyone present, and because of Wei Chengze, they had no way out.
But at this moment, a voice came from the crowd and said: "There will be no result in arguing, is there a way to stare dryly?" ”
The meaning of these words was obviously dissatisfied, and it was aimed at Xie Linyun.
However, because of the large number of people present and the fact that it was not quiet, Xie Linyun did not find out who was having trouble with him.
Immediately, someone continued: "That is, now that Wei Wuji is going to fight outside Wu'an City, can we not be in a hurry?" ”
At this moment, the hall, which had been quieter, immediately became lively again, and everyone began to discuss countermeasures again.
However, what can they negotiate the outcome, the general trend is already like this, and it is basically impossible to redeem it.
At this time, Xie Linyun had no intention of suppressing the family below, but turned his attention to Wang Jian and the others.
"Elder Wang, you old man have to think of a way, if Wei Wuji is allowed to go to Wu'an, we won't have any good results!" Xie Linyun said bitterly.
What can Wang Jian come up with now, all he has in his heart at this time is resentment, but not Wei Wuji.
At the beginning, he strongly advocated that Wei Wuji be killed as soon as possible, unscrupulous means......
However, some people were short-sighted, or dismissive, or timid, so that Wei Wuji was always at ease, and now it has become a nightmare for everyone here.
All of this is the work of these complaining people in this room, and now is the time to reap the consequences.
Wang Jian didn't want to mention the old things again, but at this time, Wang Jian couldn't help but say: "If you want to blame, blame yourself for not having the ability!" ”
"Let's just talk about it recently, as the only one in our hands who can restrain Wei Wuji, Qianlan has disappeared silently...... What do you say we people are doing? Wang Jian asked expressionlessly, but in fact, his heart was overwhelmed with anger.
Speaking of this, he was really angry, and the sudden disappearance of Yu Ji, as an important bargaining chip, made many people who were holding Zhizhu lose their confidence all of a sudden.
Wang Jian's words were heard, and he heard a voice from the crowd saying: "The person in charge of patrolling the city is Wu Mingyan's grandson, it seems that these two masters are a virtue, they are so useless!" ”
Wu Mingyan is in the position of Shangqing, which is also one of the top families, and there are people who dare to offend on weekdays, but now after things are wrong, they have also become rags that people step on underneath.
At this time, the Wu family naturally came, but they endured it. At this time, there are too many voices in the clan to be dissatisfied with them, and they will only make their family more targeted if they come forward.
"How many soldiers do we have?" At this time, Zhao An, who had not spoken, asked.
Xie Linyun was most concerned about this, and replied: "We have 40,000 soldiers and horses in the Wu'an camp, and if we add more than 20,000 soldiers in Wu'an City, we have a total of 60,000 soldiers and horses!" ”
Hearing this figure, those who know the inside story will understand that 60,000 troops directly means defeat.
"60,000 soldiers and horses...... I'm afraid it's also a mantis arm as a car! Zhang Lin was a little out of consciousness at this time, and the moment of critical survival had come.
Now if you want to defeat Wei Wuji, it is better to think about how to protect the family in the rebellion, which is more practical.
That is to say, after hearing the news that Wei Wuji had gone north, most of the people present had little confidence in victory.
Husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes, not to mention the family that is united purely because of interests.
The people have always been selfish, and they can do nothing to protect themselves!
In fact, the discussion did not come to any conclusion, but after the end of the meeting, many chilling things were said.
For example, someone said: "All this is made by the four major families, and it has nothing to do with us, I expect that Wu Yangjun will only find trouble with them!" ”
Someone else said: "The people of the four major families have indeed been a little more domineering over the years, I heard that a few days ago, Wu Yangjun's father-in-law, the Cao family, has been taken care of!" ”
"What's the use of taking care of it, the male of the Cao family hasn't escaped yet...... What are the people of the four great families doing?"
"That's it, it's all because they've been here all these years, which is why they have today's disaster!"
The words of these people became more and more popular, and in the end, they directly turned into hatred for the four families of King Xie and Zhang Zhao.
Therefore, people are sometimes so unreasonable, vulnerable to the outside world, but they are very good in the nest.
In this regard, although the people of the four major families knew, they could not do anything.
Who else can they punish at this time? That will only hasten the dispersion of people's hearts and make the ship sink faster.
In Wu'an City, ordinary people still don't know much about the outside world because of martial law. But because of the high-pressure environment, they are also terrified.
In today's Wu'an City, it is rare to unify psychological feelings, and fear is in a notification position in the city.
