Wei Wuhou

Chapter 714

(A chapter will be updated in the middle of the night!! Happy National Day!!)
Wei Wuji left Changping Pass on the eighth day of March. Because they were all cavalry, they moved relatively fast.

The only resistance along the way lies in the supply of food and grass.Most of the officials are people from the same lineage, and these people certainly don't want Wei Wuji to lead troops into Wu'an.

On the other hand, Wei Wuji had more than [-] soldiers and horses, and his own consumption was also very high, so the supply would inevitably be insufficient.

This caused Wei Wuji's marching speed to slow down, and he had to raise rations along the way before he could go north safely.

In the beginning, Wei Wuji sent someone to contact the local officials when he arrived at a certain place, but the other party didn't cooperate very much.

After doing this several times, Wei Wuji changed his mind, why did he ask others?Do people listen to reason?
Therefore, before Wei Wuji went to a place in the future, he directly sent troops to requisition food, which is what the historian described as "restraining troops for chaos".

Using a knife is always more efficient than talking with your mouth, so Wei Wuji increased his speed, but in fact, relatively speaking, his speed on the road still failed to reach full speed.

In contrast, the news that Wei Wuji led his troops to the north spread much faster, reaching the ears of nobles in Wu'an after only seven days.

This moment caused an uproar, and the entire upper echelon of Wu'an was shaken!
Although they were already mentally prepared for this fact, when it really came, they still felt terrified, and even more frightened.

That little doll who was bullied in Wu'an back then and was played with by the family and applauded, has come back now... and brought an army back.

This person has never been a talkative person, let alone a good person... Even according to the information below, this young master is a very murderous person.

You know, when this man was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he had killed people on the battlefield, and even planned a massacre in Xinle, Chendu.

It is precisely because of this massacre of Xinle that the rule of the upper class of Chen State collapsed, leading to the existence of Chen State in name only.

In the future, this young master will kill even more people. The barbarians in northern Xinjiang who have been in chaos for many years, I don't know how many people have become the dead souls of this young master!
Thinking of this, the clansmen in Wu'an felt that they could not sleep or eat well, their daily delicacies from mountains and seas were gone, and they lost interest in all the fun things.

No, after receiving the news on the night of March [-]th, they all got together to discuss countermeasures the next day.

This time is different from the past, it is no longer the four major families who participated in the discussion, but the families ranked Shaoqing and above have sent people.

The meeting place, which was supposed to be quiet and dignified, became noisy after the sudden increase in the number of people, and it hurt people's ears to hear it.

Seeing this situation, the faces of the old men who were in charge became even more gloomy, as if they were about to explode at any moment!

This scene also just foreshadowed that maybe the family line was really about to collapse, and this mess looked like it had already lost the battle.

At this time, Xie Linyun, the head of the Xie family, stood up and shouted to everyone in the hall: "Everyone, just keep arguing like this, what can the result be? Can you defeat Wei Wuji's army?"

The reason why Xie Linyun couldn't sit still was because the Xie family was in deeper trouble than everyone present, and because of Wei Chengze they had no escape route.

But at this moment, a voice came from the crowd and said: "There will be no results in arguing, so there will be a solution if you stare blankly?"

The meaning in these words is obviously dissatisfied, and it is 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 making trouble with him.

Immediately, someone continued: "That's right, now Wei Wuji is going to fight outside Wu'an City, can we not be in a hurry?"

At this moment, the hall that was originally quiet became lively again, and everyone began to discuss countermeasures again.

However, what results can they negotiate? The general situation is already like this, and it is basically impossible to restore it.

At this time, Xie Linyun had no intention of suppressing the family below, but turned his attention to Wang Jian and the other three.

"Old Wang, you have to think of a way, if we let Wei Wuji go to Wu'an, we will have no good results!" Xie Linyun said bitterly.

What can Wang Jian think of now, all he has in his heart is resentment, but it's not against Wei Wuji.

At the beginning, he strongly advocated killing Wei Wuji as soon as possible, the kind of unscrupulous...

However, some people were short-sighted, or didn't take it seriously, or were timid, which allowed Wei Wuji to be at ease all the time, and now it has become a nightmare for everyone present.

All of this is caused by the complaining people here, and now is the time to reap the consequences.

Wang Jian didn't want to bring up the old things back then, but at this moment Wang Jian couldn't help but said, "If you want to blame it, blame yourself for your incompetence!"

"Just recently, Tan Qianlan, who was the only one in our hands who could restrain Wei Wuji, disappeared without a sound... What do you think we people are doing?" Wang Jian asked blankly. But in fact, the heart has been flooded with anger.

Speaking of this, he was really angry. Tan Ji, as an important bargaining chip, suddenly disappeared, and many people who were in the hands of Zhizhu lost all confidence.

Wang Jian's words were heard by others, and he heard a voice from the crowd saying: "Wu Mingyan's grandson is in charge of patrolling the city. It seems that these two men are a virtuous person, and they are both so useless!"

Wu Mingyan was ranked as Shangqing, and it was also one of the top families. Usually there were people who would dare to offend, but now that things have changed, they have become rags that others trample on.

At this time, the Wu family naturally came, but they endured it.At this time, the voices of dissatisfaction with them in the family are too loud, and their appearance will only make their family more targeted.

"How many soldiers and horses do we have?" Zhao An, who hadn't spoken yet, asked.

Xie Linyun was most concerned about this, and immediately replied: "We have [-] soldiers in the Wu'an Camp, and if we add the [-] soldiers in Wu'an City, we have a total of [-] soldiers!"

Hearing this number, those who know the inside story will understand that [-] troops directly means defeat.

"Sixty thousand soldiers and horses... I'm afraid it's like a mantis' arm is like a chariot!" Zhang Lin was a little lost at this moment, and the critical moment of life and death had arrived.

Now thinking about how to defeat Wei Wuji, it is more practical to think about how to preserve the family in the midst of military chaos.

In other words, after hearing the news that Wei Wuji had gone north, most of the people present had no confidence in victory.

Husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes, not to mention a family united purely because of interests.

The aristocratic clan has always been selfish, in order to protect themselves they can do unlimited things!

In fact, this discussion still did not come to any conclusions, but after the meeting ended, some people said many chilling things.

For example, someone said: "All of these are caused by the four big families, and have nothing to do with us. I guess Mr. Wu Yang will only trouble them!"

Someone else said: "The four major families have indeed become domineering in recent years. I heard that a few days ago, Wu Yangjun's father-in-law, Cao's family, has been guarded!"

"What's the use of guarding it, the male of the Cao family has escaped... What are the four major families in charge of!"

"That's right, it's all because they have been messing around all these years, that's why today's disaster happened!"

The words of these people became more and more angry, and finally turned directly into hatred for the four families of Xie Wang, Zhang Zhao.

Therefore, people are sometimes so unreasonable, and they are vulnerable to the outside world, but they are very good in the nest.

Although the members of the four major families knew about this, there was nothing they could do.

Who can they punish at this time?That will only speed up the separation of people's hearts and make the ship of the family sink faster.

In Wu'an City, ordinary people still don't know much about the outside world because of the martial law.But because they are in a high-pressure environment, they are also terrified.

In today's Wu'an City, it is rare to be unified in psychological feelings, and fear is in a noticeable position in the city.
