"PS: Okay, this foreshadowing plot is finally finished. Next, let's start with the battle between the East Palace and King Yong from the perspective of King Su. Then, there will be a national war between the three kingdoms of Qi, Lu and Wei against Chu!"

————The following text————

“Boom—! Boom—! Boom—!”

The alarm bell rang throughout Shangshui City, awakening the Shangshui Army general Gu Liangwei from his sleep.

With his slightly sleepy eyes open, he took his hand out from under the body of the newly married fourth wife, and looked out the window at the dim sky with a look of shock and anger.

"What the hell?! Who dares to sound the alarm for no reason?"

No wonder Gu Liangwei's first reaction was this. You must know that Shangshui is the default fiefdom of Su Wang Zhao Hongrun. It can be regarded as the base camp of the "Su Wang Party", with a Shangshui army of 30,000 people.

, and the Shangshui Qingya came in a few days ago.

Such a powerful force made Gu Liangwei never think that this county would be attacked.

However, the matter of ringing the alarm bell was of great importance, and it would be impossible for him, the first garrison general in Shangshui County, not to come forward. Although he was a little nostalgic for the woman on the bed, his reason told him that even if he sounded the alarm bell, it would only be a short time.

It was a misunderstanding, but if he, the general, did not show up when this happened, His Highness King Su would definitely peel off his skin.

Quickly putting on his battle robe, Gu Liangwei rushed out with his weapon in hand while cursing, and rushed out of his newly built general's mansion.

However, when he rushed out of the mansion, he was horrified to see several places in the city bursting into flames.

"Enemy...enemy attack?!"

Gu Liangwei's face suddenly turned pale.

Shangshui County was attacked...

His Royal Highness King Su's Shangshui County was attacked...

A layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Gu Liangwei's forehead.

Fortunately, the merchant navy in the city reacted much faster than the general Gu Liangwei. They had already begun to respond under the organization of their respective 100-man generals, 500-man generals, and 1,000-man generals.

No, Gu Liangwei saw a team of 100 people quickly running past the door of his house.

Seeing this, Gu Liangwei asked anxiously: "Who attacked Shangshui? Are they from Chu?"

Gu Liangwei's first reaction was to ask Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, or Xiong Hu, Lord of Pingyu. After all, the only ones around here who dared to make business plans were those two from Chu State.

But unfortunately, he guessed wrong.

"Reporting to the general, I don't know yet. But I heard they are a cavalry..."

"cavalry?"

Gu Liangwei muttered to himself: Where did Chuxi's cavalry come from?

Also, as a general under Yuan Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, doesn't he still know whether Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo has cavalry under his command?

After thinking for a moment, Gu Liangwei immediately ordered: "You guys, go to the Yangtou Yi clan immediately and protect his mansion! Send a few more people to the port to mobilize troops!... Go quickly!"

"yes!"

The hundred-man general clasped his fists and accepted the order, and led his hundred-man team to change direction and head towards the Yangyu clan's mansion.

After all, the women of Zhao Hongrun were staying in the Yangyu clan's mansion. Gu Liangwei would rather have his own mansion be attacked than dare to let go of that mansion.

After the group of merchant soldiers left, Gu Liangwei drew his sword and headed to the outpost with a group of guards.

As he was walking, he suddenly saw a group of civilians holding swords in front of him. He was so shocked that he almost ordered an attack.

"General Guliang (Wei)!" the other party spoke first.

"Yuma?" Gu Liangwei was slightly startled, and the hostility in his eyes immediately dissipated. After all, he also knew the details of Yuma.

"Brother Yuma, do you know what happened?" Gu Liangwei put away his sword and walked over.

Yuma shook his head, then kicked a few corpses around his feet, and said in a solemn tone: "It's the Fuqiu people!... These people opened the city gate and put in a group of cavalry."

Gu Liangwei didn't know much about the hidden thieves in Wei State, but he still knew that they were probably assassins.

He looked back at Yuma and said, "Brother Yuma, I have sent people to the port to mobilize troops. Reinforcements will arrive within a quarter of an hour. Before that, I hope everyone in Yuma can lend a helping hand."

"Yes!" Yuma nodded. After all, they, the Yuma people, have settled down in Shangshui. How can they tolerate unknown enemies attacking the county and turning the county into a mess?

After thinking about it, Yuma reminded Gu Liangwei: "General Gu Liang, I suggest you secure the city gates on all sides first to prevent the thieves from escaping... When Shangshui is attacked, the Qingya people will rush to support, waiting for Qingyao.

The crowd of crows arrived and slowly cleared away the enemies in the city."

Gu Liangwei nodded, and then said fiercely: "This general will crush these thieves to ashes!"

It has to be said that Gu Liangwei was filled with rage at this moment.

Shangshui, as a fiefdom of His Royal Highness King Su, was actually attacked by thieves. Is this okay?

How could he explain to His Highness Prince Su without catching all the invading thieves?

At the same time, the main criminal Huan Hu, who was hated and reviled by Gu Liangwei, led his mounted bandits into the county jail in Shangshui County and released the prisoners in the county jail.

Most of these prisoners are Chu people.

Yes, even among the more than 400,000 Chu people who defected to the Wei State, not all of them were good and law-abiding citizens. There were also some who did not obey the laws of the Wei State.

Of course, this also includes some children of aristocratic families. These people were all unwilling to submit to the Yangyu clan and so hindered Yangyu Tao during his governance of Shangshui.

It's a pity that because of the existence of Yang Yan Xing, the Yang Yan Yi clan is destined to become the most powerful nobleman in Shangshui County. However, Yang Yan Tao, who bowed before Zhao Hongrun, was merciless in punishing these nobles. He invited Shang Shui to

The navy army executed many of them to death and imprisoned others. They killed many nobles who were more powerful than the Yangyu clan in Chu State, and finally made the Yangyu clan a powerful person in Shangshui County.

What these people have in common is that they hate the Yangyu clan deeply, and they also hate Su Wang Zhao Hongrun who strongly supports the Yangyu clan.

But now, Huan Hu and his cavalry bandits have released these people.

"Go kill!...Kill everyone you see and turn the entire county into a hell on earth! Hahahaha..."

Huan Hu laughed loudly as he watched the prisoners rushing out of the county jail crazily and strolling inside the county jail.

He didn't care whether these people would add a little more chaos to the county town of Shangshui as he said. Anyway, once these prisoners escaped from the prison, they would definitely run into the soldiers of Shangshui outside. How could the two sides not fail to do so?

Fighting?

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Huan Hu was stunned for a moment, took two steps back, and looked at the cell on the left in confusion.

I saw a thin man in the cell, looking at him with indifferent eyes.

This thin man was extraordinary. His hands and feet were actually shackled. Huan Hu had released so many prisoners so far, but this was the first time he had seen someone wearing shackles.

"This man... is extraordinary."

Huan Hu stared at the young man for a few seconds, then suddenly drew his sword and cut off the iron lock on the cell door, then opened the cell door and walked in.

"San'er, give me the key." The thin, shackled man said to a young Shang Shui sergeant beside him.

"No, you can't." The young soldier Shang Shui shook his head and said.

After that, he asked Huan Hu in an obviously frightened tone: "You... who are you?"

"I?" Huan Hu recalled Zhao Hongrun's words about "soldiers and thieves" in his mind, and grinned: "I am a thief, a thief who specializes in killing soldiers!" After that, he turned towards the young businessman.

The water sergeant pursed his lips and asked frivolously: "Boy, are you a soldier?"

"I, I am..."

The young Shang Shui soldier was trembling all over, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

"San'er, throw away the weapon in your hand!" the thin man said again.

Huan Hu glanced at the thin man with some surprise, then grinned at the young Shang Shui sergeant and said, "Boy, listen to him. If you lose your weapon, I won't kill you."

However, the immature Shangshui soldier held the weapon with trembling hands. After struggling and hesitating several times, he gritted his teeth and said, "I, I am Shangshui...ah!"

After that, he shouted and rushed towards Huan Hu with his weapon in hand.

Huan Hu curled his lips, not bothering to take action at all. Behind him, a Fuqiu soldier dressed in black sprang out, and with a sharp technique, he stabbed the dagger into the heart of the Shangshui soldier in an instant.

"..." The thin man opened his mouth, and then sighed silently.

"Very courageous!" Huan Hu nodded while looking at the corpse on the ground, and then shook his head with regret.

Afterwards, he looked up at the thin man and asked with a smile: "Brother, why are you in shackles? It seems that you are the only one in shackles in this county jail."

"Because they are afraid that I will kill them." The thin man said calmly.

"..." Huan Hu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other person up and down, licked his lips and asked, "Are you interested in following me?"

"Hmph!" The thin man snorted coldly and said calmly: "My father is a hero in Zhaoling County. I will not bring shame to my father's famous name. Don't think so!"

Huan Hu was a little surprised when he heard this, then grinned and said: "Interesting, when you say that, I am more interested in you... Hey, brother, you are locked up here, you must have a grudge against Zhao Run, right?...

…It just so happens that I am too.”

The thin man glanced at Huan Hu and said calmly: "My enemy is only Xiong Hu, Pingyu Lord of Chu State... King Su, not even that."

"Well, let's do this. You help me kill Zhao Run, and I'll help you kill Xiong Hu. How about that?" As he spoke, Huan Hu changed his tone, nuzzled his lips towards the corpse on the ground, and said, "Just right.

There is a substitute body here, set it on fire, who knows who it is?... Or would you rather die here?"

The thin man was silent for a moment, and then he said to the Fuqiu thief who had just taken action: "Hey, that boy has the key to unlock the door. You can get it and unlock it for me."
