Chapter 408
After Lin Wudi's funeral, Wen Yi began to calm down and manage Wancheng. At the same time, he did not ignore Dongshanzhai, which was his original foundation and an important source of news for him about the capital.
Wen Yi sent a letter to Sui Wenyuan to carefully develop Dongshanzhai and pay attention to the reaction of the capital at any time.
Wen Yu was in charge of Wancheng's political affairs, and Xu Ji served as military advisor. The three of them sat together and Wen Yi said: "I plan to occupy the new city."
Wen Yu said: "How many people does my lord plan to dispatch?"
Wen Yi looked at Xu Ji.
Xu Jidao: "Xincheng doesn't have a strong army, and it can be taken by dispatching 1 people. But what needs to be considered is the imperial court and the Liangcheng frontier army. It would be better if we can take Liangcheng first."
Wen Yi thinks it makes sense. Only by chewing the hard bones first and then eating the meat can he feel happy.However, "I want to work on both sides. Pingzhong, is there any problem with Wancheng's logistics?"
Wen Yu said: "Don't worry about the logistics. After I checked, I found that the food stored in Wancheng is enough for everyone to eat for at least three years."
Xu Ji bowed his head silently, after thinking about it, he explained: "The Great Heavenly King didn't think too far before."
Wen Yi understood in seconds, it's not a fault to be in a corner, but it's just a bit cruel for the opponent to come down.
Since there is no problem with the logistics, Wen Yi said: "Then it's settled. We will attack Liangcheng and Xincheng at the same time. We have 20 people, and we are afraid that the two cities will fail."
The lord set the tone, and Xu Ji was in charge of making suggestions. Again, what needs to be considered is not Xincheng, but Liangcheng.The reason why Wancheng didn't take the initiative to attack before was because he was afraid of Liangcheng.
Although no foreign race appeared in the border city for a long time, the defense was the strongest. In the current situation, the strongest power of the imperial court was probably in Liangcheng.
Xu Jidao: "We can contact the foreign race. The guard of Liangcheng is very tough on the foreign race. He has guarded the border city for many years. He will definitely not let go of the opportunity to fight the foreign race."
Wen Yi said: "Ziqing, although we can guarantee that the foreign race will not be able to make a splash, such behavior will be scolded by others. If we lose the hearts of the people, it is useless for us to take down Liangcheng."
Xu Jidao: "My lord is right. I have another way. With our strength, we can quickly occupy Xincheng. My lord can send people to surround Liangcheng first, and then use the Xincheng people as the vanguard to reduce the casualties of our army."
Wen Yi looked at Xu Ji in shock, what was my behavior that misunderstood you, am I such a cruel person?
Xu Ji asked back: "Then what do you think the lord should do?"
Wen Yi straightened his back, "It is easy to attack Xincheng, but it must be done quickly. The main concern is Liangcheng. We can try sending a surrender letter to Liangcheng first. If it works, it will be the best. If it doesn't, it will also delay time."
The world is falling apart, and the guard of Liangcheng has no intention of standing on his own. It means that he is either extremely loyal to the court, or he does not want to stand on his own. No matter what the reason is, it is always okay to test his attitude first.
Three days later, the Wancheng team was ready to go. Some went to Liangcheng, some to Xincheng, and some to other cities or villages.
Wancheng belongs to one of the larger forces among the rebel factions in the world. Whenever there is a movement in it, the eyes of the whole country will be looked at.Among them, Xincheng and Liangcheng, which are relatively close to Wancheng, are the most vigilant.
The prefect of Xincheng was extremely worried, so he summoned his subordinates and said, "Wancheng gathered the troops out of the city, and there is a team coming towards Xincheng, please tell us what we should do?"
One of the directors said: "My lord, I suggest that we can ask General Lu of Liangcheng for help, and now he is the only one who can help us."
The prefect said: "It is reasonable, it is reasonable."
Another official said: "Your Excellency, you can't. Master Lu is stationed at the border. How can we move lightly without the imperial court's order? We'd better get the imperial court's order first."
The prefect nodded and said: "That's right, I will write the memorial right now."
Chang Shi said: "My lord, the imperial court is thousands of miles away from here. Once we come back and forth, we have already been defeated by Wancheng. My lord, we should organize the city to save ourselves first."
The eunuch put down his pen and said: "That's right, Mr. Xu, I will leave this matter to you. The tens of thousands of people in Xincheng will be transferred by you, and the new city will be handed over to you."
Chang Shi saluted and walked out of the government office.
The master said: "My lord, Mr. Xu has always been at odds with you, so be careful not to use his public equipment for private use."
The prefect was taken aback, "This, the enemy is in the lead, shouldn't it be?"
"Why not, you don't know who Master Xu is? If he has a grudge against you, he will definitely not help you honestly."
The prefect said anxiously: "Then what should I do?"
The chief registrar said: "Don't worry, sir, I am willing to die for you."
"Okay, sorry to trouble you, you go quickly."
The master book also left the Yamen.
The rest of the officials couldn't come up with any other effective suggestions, so the prefect said, "Everyone, go and help guard the new city, and stop those bandits. I will definitely commend your contributions to the imperial court."
If everyone goes to defend the city, there shouldn't be any problems!
After several officials left, the prefect wrote a distress letter and ordered it to be sent to the capital.After thinking about it, he hurriedly wrote a distress letter and sent it to Liangcheng.
After everything was done, the prefect felt that he had done everything.He asked his official family, "Uncle Yu, is there anything else I should do?"
The old butler thought for a while and said, "My lord, you'd better get ready first, and evacuate as soon as possible if the city breaks down, and go back to find the adults to decide."
The prefect was very obedient, and immediately sent someone to pack up his things, ready to run for his life at any time.
The prefect was making intensive preparations, and several officials outside were also very busy. They asked the small officials to gather people to defend the city while discussing together.
The master said: "Wancheng, I heard that there are hundreds of thousands of troops. I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand them. Even if each of them spit, they will drown us."
An official said: "I guess the prefect is already preparing to escape. If the city is destroyed, we will be the scapegoats. If it is defended, it means he defended the city well."
Chang Shi said: "If it really doesn't work, it's better than us."
The director said: "Surrendering is also a good idea, but I don't know if the army in Wancheng is willing to accept us."
Chang Shi stammered, "I'm talking about going to General Lu."
The master said: "Come on, from here to Liangcheng we have to pass through Wancheng, we are not throwing ourselves into the trap, we might as well surrender."
After hearing this, the others also thought it was a good idea.But the most important thing at the moment is to defend the city. If you really can't hold it, surrender before you do it, so as not to take the blame for others.
At the moment, the few people stopped talking and went to supervise everywhere.Several officials are usually responsible for a lot of things, how to defend the city, equipment, and logistics. All are properly arranged.
When Zhen Tianwang took people to the city, he found that Xincheng was ready to fight.King Zhentian sent people to surround Xincheng, and then a group of people began to set up camp.
When Xincheng saw the enemy army, he got nervous and prepared to fight, but the opponent didn't intend to fight them at all.They just watched the enemy set up camp, light a fire and cook.It's just annoying.
However, people in Xincheng were surrounded tightly, unable to get out, and did not dare to go out, so they could only stand on the top of the city and watch.
After a while, King Zhentian sent people to scold Xincheng, and the brave ones would come out for a decisive battle. If they dare not come out, is it a man?Did he cut off that thing and was about to enter the palace?
The people on the top of the city were so angry that they clenched their fists and weapons.I don't know who couldn't help but shot an arrow, but the Wancheng army stayed out of range, and the arrow shot to nothing.
Wancheng Jun laughed loudly and cursed even more fiercely.
The New City Army is of course angry, but they can't do it if they want to leave the city. The difference in strength between the two sides is really huge. There is no difference between leaving the city and sending them to death.
