Chapter 250 : The Night of Destiny!(1/5)
Inside Baiye County.
The chief of Baiye County, Xiao Wuchang, fell into the final choice.
If there was room for a wall before, it was no longer available.
He has lived a very comfortable life over the years because the prefect of Baiye County sent by the king has not been long, and he has been a chief minister for more than ten years.
Not long ago, the prefect Chen Qilong seized his post because of corruption.
After more than ten years of operation, Xiao Wuchang is the local snake in Baiye County.
Although it is not as glorious as Su Lin in Zhenyuan City, it is still possible to undermine every prefect.
And of course, these are inseparable from the support of the Su family.
Therefore, over the years, Xiao Wuchang has respected Su Nan and even surpassed the monarch, and has always regarded himself as an official of the Su clan.
But now the Su family is going to rebel.
Where should he, Xiao Wuchang go?
Follow Su Nan to rebel?
Although Xiao Wuchang is from Baiye County, he is a Jinshi from Yue Kingdom after all, and the glory of the title on the Golden List seems to be vaguely yesterday.
But if he didn't treason with Su Nan, he would be basically dead.
At this time, the two thousand troops in Baiye County had already been penetrated by the Su family and were full of holes.
The three thousand households even regarded themselves as Su's slaves and were completely fed by gold and silver.
In front of him was Su Lu, the envoy sent by the Su family.
This person is conducting a final lobbying against Changshi Xiao Wuchang.
"The Chu army has been launched. Every hair of Zhong Yao stands up and does his best to resist the Chu army. Zheng Tuo, Pingxibo, completely closed Bai Yeguan. We are worried that the army of the Zhong family will go south. Instead, they are worried that we will go north and attack Chu from the front and back, so the Zhong army will never dare to go south."
"The Qiang King Aluta led his army of 50,000 and has arrived. He will soon be able to meet with my Su family."
"The vanguard monks of Dajie Temple are five thousand, not far away."
"How many troops will we have then? Seventy thousand, eighty thousand? or even more."
"When necessary, the Qiang Kingdom can have all soldiers and gather 100,000 troops."
"Who else stops us in the entire Tianxi Province? Is it up to Zhang Chong's three thousand soldiers?"
The chief of Baiye County, Xiao Wuchang, shook his head instinctively.
Su Lu smiled and said, "The King of Wu led his army south to approach Ueno City, the country of Yue. The original 30,000 troops had increased to 60,000 troops. The king Ning Yuanxian went north and was also increasing his troops. The decisive battle between the two kings is about to begin."
"In the Nanyu Kingdom, Zhu Lin's 60,000 troops have been completely trapped there."
"Xiao Changshi, come and tell me, is Yue State that powerful? Can it fight on three sides?"
The Changshi Xiao Wuchang shook his head. Yue Kingdom is not that powerful, and large-scale two-sided combat cannot be achieved, let alone three-sided combat.
Nowadays, the only one who can fight on both sides in the entire Eastern country is probably the Great Nouveau Jin State.
The Great Yan Empire does not count. Now it dominates the world and can beat more than three surrounding countries at the same time.
Su Lu said: "What did Ning Yuanxian send Zhang Chong and Shen Lang to Baiye County to do? Gambling is just a gambling."
The Changshi Xiao Wuchang nodded and admitted.
This is indeed a big gamble, and it seems like it will lose.
Su Lu said: "Who can stop our 70,000 or 80,000 troops in the entire Tianxi Province? No! After this war, the dismemberment of Yue Kingdom has become a foregone conclusion. Xiao Changshi, what are you afraid of? Once we seize the southern part of Tianxi Province and Su Qiang is one, our territory will not be much younger than Yue Kingdom. At that time, Xiao Changshi will also be a founding hero, and an earl will not be able to escape."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Wuchang's heart beat wildly.
A title?
This temptation is completely irresistible.
Civilians of his level have no possibility of being awarded titles at all.
The Changshi Xiao Wuchang suddenly said, "Can I take the initiative to ask?"
Su Lu said: "Please speak."
Xiao Wuchang said: "Who will be the king after Su and Qiang merge together?"
Su Lu said: "Of course, Aluta is the king and the lord is the prime minister."
Xiao Wuchang admired Su Nan, who was so cruel that the throne was given out directly.
On the surface, he was loyal to the Qiang King.
The Su and Qiang were united, and on the surface, the Su family surrendered to the Qiang Kingdom.
However, the Qiang King's sons were all killed, leaving only Aluta and two children, both of whom were born to Su women.
Aluta is very good at martial arts and is also very good at fighting, but his internal affairs skills are completely shit.
What internal affairs officials are there in Qiang?
Not half of it.
The combination of Su and Qiang is one, and the surface is Qiang annexing Su, but in fact Su and Qiang are exorcizing Qiang.
It won't take a few years.
Perhaps Aruta died suddenly like Arugan.
By that time, the Qiang Kingdom would completely belong to the Su family.
The barbarians are barbarians, they are very stupid and think they have taken advantage of them.
Now it seems that the Su family really wants to succeed in great success.
The right time, place and people are all in the Su family.
Changshi Xiao Wuchang said: "We have another thing that we are a little worried about."
Su Lu said: "Please speak."
Xiao Wuchang said: "Shen Lang, a little beast, led tens of thousands of people to rob, countless merchants were looted, and countless casualties were injured. Su's army had more than 20,000 troops, which could completely stop all this, but..."
This is a vague saying that Su Nanqian looks too ugly.
Before, these Western Region merchants worked hard for you, Su, but you were not ruthless in your sacrifice.
Xiao Wuchang said again: "If it weren't for this, how could Zhang Chong easily enter Baiye County City?"
Su Lu said lightly: "Xiao Changshi, is this matter related to you?"
The chief minister Xiao Wuchang was shocked and quickly bowed and said, "I'm talking too much, I'm talking too much."
Su Lu smiled and said, "Xiao Changshi, you have to change your mind. You are also a minister of the Su family. Why can't you do things that are beneficial to us?"
Xiao Wuchang bowed and said, "Yes, yes, it's my memory that I'm confused. Please ask the envoy to apologize to the lord."
Su Lu said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say! Are some bureaucrats and wealthy businessmen in Baiyecheng more welcome to Zhang Chong?"
Changshi Xiao Wuchang said: "It's true."
Su Lu said: "That happened to eliminate Zhang Chong's wariness. You will take the lead to invite Zhang Chong to the banquet tonight, as a way to welcome him."
Changshi Xiao Wuchang said: "What's the matter?"
Su Lu said: "Of course, kill him."
The chief secretary Xiao Wuchang was stunned: "Kill now?"
Su Lu said: "What else? The right time, place, people and people are already in place, and the lord can announce the uprising within a few days. What are you doing with Zhang Chong? Killing a prefect is just right to sacrifice the flag, right?"
Changshi Xiao Wuchang still felt a little dry.
He had imprisoned the prefect before and even framed it, but he was openly killed, which was a rebellion.
However, isn’t he just a rebellion when he worships Su Nan?
"Earl Baiye, do you have any worries?" Su Lu said with a smile.
The Count of Baiye in this life made Xiao Wuchang excited and shook his head and said, "No, no at all! Tonight I will lead many officials in Baiye County to entertain Zhang Chong and then kill him! So, is it necessary to tell other officials the truth about the matter?"
Su Lu shook his head and said, "No, after killing Zhang Chong, these people will have to board our Su family's chariot."
This is true at all.
If you kill the prefect in public, you have to rebel if you don’t.
The viciousness of Su family can be seen as normal.
Put Zhang Chong in and kill him again!
Xiao Wuchang said: "Where is the little beast Shen Lang?"
Su Lu said: "The net of heaven and earth has contracted. Shen Lang will die tomorrow! Those robbery untouchables will also die!"
The Changshi Xiao Wuchang said: "It's very good, very good."
Su Lu said: "So you have to kill Zhang Chong tonight, otherwise it will be a little trouble if these two thieves run away."
To be continued...
